The handkerchief had almost touched his face when Ryan moved his head backward. He took his gun that had been lying on the console and pointed it at the two guys.Seeing that the men were not moved by the sight of the gun, Ryan let out two shots at the men. Their groans filled the car.Ryan collected the handkerchief from the man holding it and tossed it in the passenger seat in the front."Jed?" Ryan asked and the two men nodded.Ryan shot them again. No one paid any attention to them. The crowds were pulling in on the two fighting boys."I've no use for people like you," Ryan said and shot one of the men in the chest.The second man raised his injured hand. "I don't want to die," he said in

"Is that all we need?" Brenda asked Anna for the hundredth time that morning.If Brice and Anna had not been there, Ryan would have teased Brenda about why she was making so much fuss."Yes, ma'am. I got all the necessary information," Anna said."The lawyer would arrive any moment from now," Ryan said."Alright. Mr Brice, you've anything to say?" Brenda asked. The others turned to Brice, he had a frown on his face. "I'm just thinking if it's okay to have a car on my tail.""I almost forgot.

Ryan watched Anna walk slowly to the dead child on the sofa. He was expecting her to burst into tears, jump around hysterically and scream her lungs out but she didn't do any of that, she knelt by the sofa and held the girl's hand.The action was familiar to Ryan. When a worker, back in his house in New York, had come to him to announce the death of his mother. He'd ran to her room, thinking that the worker had made a mistake. Inside his mother's room, everyone was crying. He even saw a drop of tears run down his tough father's face, but he had been emotionless. He had wanted to cry, he had wanted to throw himself on the floor, shout, scream and do a lot of things, but he had not found the energy to do it. He had just held his mother's cold hands and stared at her.Ryan bit hard on his lower lip as he watched Anna trying to process the death of her daughter. He tried to find words to comfort her, but his brain was completely empty.Anna Sa

Ryan was only eight when his mother had started drawing the painting. Ryan had asked why she was drawing a lion of all animals. She has looked at him for some minutes before continuing her drawing. It was later that she told him that he would understand about the Lion when he gets older…"Mr Ryan?" Ryan heard Brice call.He walked back to the couch and sat down. He took a sip from the coffee before setting the cup back on the table."That painting… I was looking at it," Ryan said."Oh. It was my wife who bought it." He shook his head. "She has a very bad taste when it comes to buying things."Ryan wanted to stand up and punch that mouth of Brice that he used in talking badly about his mother's painting."Of all the pieces of art to buy, she went for that shabby looking thing." Brice Sat down opposite Ryan after casting a disgusted look at the painting."Shabby?" He continued when he saw

"Yes. Scared," Ryan shouted."Well… I mean…" Brice ran his hand through his hair."I want all these to be over as quickly as possible but how do we do that if one of us who is supposed to be of help is pulling back in the name of some lame excuses?"Brice looked at Ryan and looked away. He had never seen Ryan look so mad."Miss Anna's kid was murdered. How'd you feel if you were in her shoes and someone else is bringing in a resignation letter?" "Well, Mr Ryan… I… I understand it now.""You're coming back to the company.""Okay, Sir," Brice said before he even realized what he was saying. He saw the look on Ryan's face soften."Were you waiting to hear me shout before you agreed to come back?"Brice could not help a smile.

Alex's hang hung in the air as he stared at his boss who looked like he'd seen a ghost. It didn't make sense to Alex why his millionaire boss would be so scared of a man riding a yellow GMC.By now, people had gathered, some busybodies had started taking videos. Almost everyone in the crowd knew who the millionaire boss was. Quite a lot of them had seen him on the television and just why the sight of a man dressed in some weird looking shirt and trousers could be so frightening to the millionaire boss was a surprise to everyone."Mr Ryan…" the millionaire boss called, taking a few steps toward Ryan.More than anyone, Ryan was surprised. He did not remember seeing the man anywhere."Have you forgotten?" Ryan shook his head slowly. "I don't know you.""Mr Ryan, we met at the charity event six days ago and two days ago, I was at your office for a contract. Don't you remember?" The millionaire boss aske

"Have you been living in Atlanta all these while?" Ryan asked."Where else do I have to go?""Because I don't imagine there is anyone in Atlanta who hasn't heard of the divorce.""Forget about rumours. You were only a week married to Stephanie when I heard she had divorced you."Ryan shook his head. Landon would really never believe he's divorced."How is it like living in a rich family?" Landon asked, looking at Ryan.Ryan shrugged. "You could say it's nothing out of the ordinary." After some moment when he didn't hear any word from Landon, Ryan glanced at Landon to find him staring at him, Landon's lips slightly parted."What? Do I have something on my face?" Landon shook his head. "You're speaking like the rich.""What?!" Ryan laughed."How is your mother in-law? I assume she treats you well. I mean, you're handsome."

A few guys joined him."I'm really sorry, but please, you have to leave," the person who had spoken earlier said again.Ryan looked in the direction of the door to see who was was talking. It was a man dressed in a suit, looking lean like an ant. Ryan found himself laughing again."We rented this place for the night and this is just midnight. You can't order us out when we paid," Landon said. He was the only one there who seemed to be the most sober."Come on. Turn on the music!" Another guy said.The man in suit walked over to Landon. "I understand your point, but our guest is really important.""Tell your guest to… Go to hell!" A guy said and laughed.The man in the suit bit his lower lips.

If Ryan had not yet sobered up, he would have sworn he imagined what just happened. Did Anderson really bring another woman to a hotel when he's going to get married to Stephanie soon?As if reading the question in his mind, Anderson grinned at Ryan."We are not dating exclusively. Until we get married, she can see other men and I can see other women." Ryan shook his head. If it was Stephanie he knew, she would never allow Anderson to date another woman while Anderson is dating her. That woman is jealous as hell. But, of course, the Stephanie he knew wouldn't have moaned another man's name while they were having sex too. Just seeing Anderson here and remembering that night made Ryan want to punch the life out of Anderson. He glanced at his phone. It's been two minutes since he sent the message. The owner of the hotel would be here any moment from now.Anderson turned to the manager. "Where are the security guard

“I was coming to check on you, sir,” the butler said. “Are you the one waiting for me inside?” The butler nodded. “Yes, sir.” For some seconds, it didn't make sense for Ryan. The butler…did the butler cause him to lose his memory? The butler took out a gun from his pocket and handed it over to Ryan. “There are forty bullets in there, I'll be waiting in the party. I saw a guy who caught my attention.” He winked at Ryan before walking away. Ryan sighed in relief. It really wouldn't have been funny if it was the butler who caused his amnesia. Slowly, Ryan walked in. In the center of the empty room were two men on their knees. He couldn't recognize one of them but he knew fully well who the second man was. His mother's only brother. The same man who had been by his side and comforted him when his mother died. Ryan adjusted the gun and pointed at the other man's head. He shot him dead with two bullets. He held the gun against his mother's brother's temple.

Ryan stood rooted in the spot and tried to process the information. The girl he saved when he was eight was Stephanie? His father knew but still made a fool of him by making him carry out stupid assignment by using the Hill family to threaten him? He stared at his father. “You know what, dad? You're unbelievable.” He started toward the door. “Ryan…you are not the only one affected by your mother's death! You get it?” “Like hell, you were affected. Like hell, you missed her way more than I did. But what…?” Ryan laughed. “You made no attempt to find out who murdered her. What a way to miss someone.” “We have different ways of handling losses. This is just my way.” Ryan turned to look at his father. “You handled it in a very pathetic way.” “Thank you, but what would I have done? Left all the work and cried all day? Would that bring her back?” “Dad, stop, will you? Nothing will ever bring her back, yeah, but you are just making excuses. You allowed the fact that you thou

Ryan ran his hand through his hair. “I'm sorry I lied to you.” “No problem, man. Things might have been awkward if you told me straight up that you were Lopez's heir,” Landon said. “By the way, what clothes do you wanna wear? I could choose for you if you are confused.” “I'll really love that.” Landon checked the clothes one after the other. He took out five pieces of clothing and dropped them on the bed. “You can try those,” he said. “Was it the butler who invited you here?” Ryan asked. “No. Your father called me a week ago and made me promise to come with our neighbors.” “Are our neighbors here too?” Ryan asked in surprise. “Yeah and don't worry, your father sponsored their transport fare.” Ryan rolled his eyes. “Of course he's supposed to do that since he invited them.” “We arrived last night.” “I'm really disappointed in you guys. Abbie too? She kept it a secret from me…” Ryan grumbled as he tried one of the clothes. Landon chuckled. “Um…Lewis came with Brenda too.

Ryan stared at the worker for a few seconds. Has she lost her mind? “What did you say?” Ryan asked some seconds later. “Master had collapsed, sir.” “Where is he right now?” “At the hospital, sir.” “Which hospital?” Ryan grabbed a car key from the top of the drawer. “I don't have an…” Ryan didn't hear the rest of her words as he ran outside. A driver was waiting for him. He got in and the car sped on. “Does this happen often?” Ryan asked the driver. “No, sir. This is the first time something like this has ever happened, sir.” Ryan tried to control his knee jerk but it was impossible. Why should his father collapse on his birthday? The thought of losing the only family he had left brought numbness to his whole body. The car came to a halt in front of a big building. Ryan opened the car door and ran toward the gate. He ran inside. He stopped and looked around. This place looks nothing like a hospital. He was about to go back to meet the driver when he saw people coming out

A really bad headache was what Ryan woke up to the next morning. What a way to start a birthday, he thought. He took the phone beeping on the bed. He checked the time. Seven a.m. He had a thousand messages from strange numbers. Yeah. He's back to this kind of life where he cannot have a private number. All the messages were congratulatory messages from people he had no idea who they were. Just as he clicked on one, ten more messages appeared. Ryan tossed the phone on the bed and got up. Just how people always figure out his number will remain a mystery to him. He went to the bathroom and grabbed his toothbrush. An idea came up in his head. “Ryan, we are no longer a kid…” he scolded himself but still, he dropped the toothbrush and walked to the end of his room where the digital scale was. He stood on it. He hasn't gained any weight. He went to the stadiometer his height hasn't increased too. He started laughing. What the hell is he doing? He is really not trying

Ryan glanced at his father. He wanted to remind him that he was supposed to hand over the Right Life to him when he is twenty five but the man doesn't seem like he was ready to listen to anything else. Ryan looked at the men still on their knees. “I promise to do my best as your leader and not let you down.” There was the sound of gunshots, then total silence. For some seconds in which everyone processed the change of leadership, there was silence. At once, all the men got on their feet and together, they bowed at Ryan. “I should have known you guys were planning something dangerous when you told me a surprise was waiting for me,” Ryan said later that evening as he went with butler to the lounge. “That isn't a surprise. Your birthday is tomorrow.” “If that isn't a surprise, what the hell are you guys planning to do with me again?” Ryan asked. “You'll love it, sir. I'm sure of that.” The lounge was already set with tables filled with drinks. After they sat down, the butler

“Is this an interview?” Ryan asked without looking at the man.“No…”“Stop asking me questions then.”Since the spread of the rumor about Anderson having something to do with the drop in the stock market, people have been coming out and talking about one bad thing or the other that Anderson did to them. The FBI had checked his house and he has been declared as wanted but since Ryan discarded the stupid guy's body, no one has been able to find him.Ryan tried to sleep throughout the rest of the ride to keep off the annoying whispers about him flying around the plane. Some people have an annoying habit of never minding their business.As soon as the plane landed, Ryan hurried out. Even with that, some people still managed to follow him.

Ryan dropped his cross bag on the sofa and walked to the fridge. He opened it. He was still deciding on what to drink when Landon came into the sitting room.“You're ready?” Landon asked.“Yeah.” He finally settled for a bottle of water.“You're not inviting Stephanie?” “I already told you there is no party for me. I'm just going to see what my old man planned to surprise me with this time around.” Landon nodded rather vigorously. What's up with that smirk on Landon's face?“How's Abbie?” Landon waved his hand. “I hate her with all my heart. Don't mention her name around me anymore.”Ryan opened the seal of the water, he tried not to laugh as he drank the water.“Why is she getting all worked up over nothing?” Landon asked, anger on his face.“Why did you make the prank? How'd you feel if you heard her making a call to another guy and telling him she loves him?” “This is different,

Stephanie frowned. “What are you talking about?” Cathy gave a white paper to Stephanie. Stephanie collected it and opened it carefully. In it was the neatly written handwriting of her father. ‘Dear, Stephanie. I am assuming you are twenty two now. How do you look? Beautiful? I'm sure of that. I have always been proud of you and I'll always be. Your skills and your curiosity to know more is something that makes you my favorite— I'm hoping Stewart has overcome his jealousy issue and won't throw a tantrum because of this. ‘Stephanie, you are to take this letter to Carlos Lopez. He and I agreed that you and Ryan Lopez, his son, would get married once you both turn twenty two. I would have told you this earlier but I don't want you to feel pressured. If by any chance you already found someone you love before coming across this letter, discard this idea. But if not, you could try dating Ryan Lopez. If you find out he's someone y
