"Get my bag from the car you incompetent fool and stop staring at me like that" Ursula yelled at the new young man who had been hired two days ago to be her personal body guard and helping hand. "I'm sorry ma'm" he apologized quickly and ran to get her bag. "What's your name? Who hired you?" She asked him in pure anger but before he could reply she turned to the head of her staff, a grumpy looking burly man who stood far away. "Who hired him!" She yelled at the man who ran up to her. "I did" he replied her fearlessly. "What were you thinking hiring someone as useless as yourself?" She insulted the man who only rolled his eyes at her, he was used to her insults by now and was only working for the woman because he needed the money. "He is good at his job, he was recommended by an agency that is very good at recruiting body guards and personal assistants" he said and Ursula looked at him in disgust. "First thing tomorrow morning, get me someone who knows his job and looks a little
Four years later “Liana you better stop running or you will fall!" Charlotte called out to her four years old daughter who ran outside as he brother chased her giggling. The twin brother came wheezing past his mother as she gathered their toys which they left haphazardly all over the living room. “Adrian come here right now and put on this jacket, it’s cold outside” she noticed he had not put on his jacket like his sister. Adrian did not come back but she could still hear their laughter outside. As if on cue thier father came downstairs with bed hair, he had just woken up from a nap. “Alphonse please control your children, they’re giving me a hard time today” she complained and picked up the last you. “Good Afternoon to you too Mrs Edmund” he said and kissed her on the cheek before going into the kitchen. He had changed his name officially to his father's name after the gruesome death of Ursula, as a way to keep the name of his father alive. That meant he also had to change h
“You're nothing but a good-for-nothing and a useless leech!” The lady who was dressed in a classy cream skirt suit with silver streams in her hair, glared daggers with her eyes at the bowed head man before her, she couldn't stand the sight of him, as it was a repulsive sight as far as she was concerned,Curling her lips at him, she went on with a sneer,“I do not know why my beautiful and talented daughter had to get married and be ladened with a poor bastard like you! You're nothing but a leech, you and your sick mother!”Looking at him disdainfully as he kept mute, she gave a long hiss before stomping her foot,“Idiot, incompetent fool” she muttered, “Look at me when I'm talking to you!!! Leech!! Where are the items I asked you to get at the store?!” she demanded with an arch to her eyebrow, whilst curling her lips,“Answer me fool!”Alphonse lifted his head and stared at his mother-in-law, Magaret Robinson as she went on with her verbal attack, an attack he knew could go on for h
Alphonse faltered on his feet, his ears ringing clear, while his eyes bulged out of their sockets, his eyes darted around the room and he could see the various looks of indifference and disgust in their faces, he gulped loudly before finding his voice once more, his mouth slackening while he spoke, “Sir?!” Lady Magaret gave a long hiss while glowering at him, “What is it that you do not understand fool?! You're nothing but a servant in this home as you do not contribute anything, you feed and clothe from us, and that makes you a servant!” She huffed and then a frown etched her face before she rolled her eyes and continued, “What am I even saying?! A servant is way better than you are, at least a servant contributes to the home, but you do absolutely NOTHING!!!” She shrieked at Alphonse, while still glaring at him, and Alphonse could see the pure hatred emitting from her eyes, a part of him wanted to cower but he didn't, but his body unconsciously flinched, and he shut his eyes br
It was the day of the party, and D’Oriental Hall had been booked out by the Robinson, the event was overflowing with different elite individuals who were elegantly dressed, donning expensive outfits and jewelry. Waiters were dressed impeccably in white and black outfits and a bowties, walking up and down different aisles trying to cater to the needs and requests of the guests.One of such waiters was Alphonse who hurried up and down attending to different guests and answering the orders of those who called him. He was utterly embarrassed, to say the least, but his only consolation was the promised night which he was looking forward to, the thought of entering into the promised land was his motivation for the night and was what had him going.Engrossed with the thought of the night, he didn't see Sophia approaching him with a disdainful look on her face,Splash!“Did you not hear me call you all day you fook?! Why would you dare to leave our table and guests unattended to?! Huh?!” Sh
Alphonse closed his eyes tightly, he could feel her cold breath on him and could do nothing but move back, he could feel the tears brimming in his eyes, even as his throat burned, His mother-in-law continued her subtle threats in his ears while sneering at him, he subtly opened his eyes and was disappointed to see the same hateful look in her eyes.“Sooner or later we’re going to throw you and your miserly belongings out the door to the streets where my precious picked your worthless self up from!” She paused, as though she was trying to catch her breath before she went on,“You're nothing but an absolute fool who keeps taking advantage of my daughter's kindness, but all of that is going to end soon!”Alphonse couldn't help but notice the knowing smirk and glint in her eyes with what she had uttered, knowing he could not get any answer from her, Alphonse hunched his shoulders and drooped his head to his chin. Lady Margaret had stepped back a little and was now glaring at him, daring
Before she spoke, she let out a scornful laugh, and then straightened herself up,“You're the one without any shame Alphonse! You don't have any money to your name and yet you dare to raise your hands to someone who can afford your entire generation, someone who isn't in your class or league!”She huffed and then continued, this time with narrowed eyes and clenched fists,“Who do you think you are to question me and interrupt us?!” she glanced behind her smirking lover and pointed between themselves,Although Alphonse was taken aback, causing him to flinch back, he raised himself to his full height,“I’m y-your husband”He tried to sound confident although his voice was cracking, Vivian on the other hand sent her head back and laughed to her heart’s content, “You're not only delusional but hilarious, you think someone like me will be saddled with your kind?! One who has nothing, and I'll leave a man who can afford to get me all the niceties of life, take care of my needs, and buy me
The next morning, Alphonse awoke with a heavy heart. After the humiliating events of the previous night, he barely slept. As the sun rose over the city, he knew what he had to do; return home and confront his so-called family. He walked slowly through the streets, dreading what was to come. As he approached the grand house that was once his home, he stopped to steal himself, taking a deep breath, he marched up the front steps and knocked firmly on the large wooden door. Moments later, the door swung open to reveal Vivian, Her lips curled into a sneer at the sight of Alphonse,"What do you want?" she spat. Behind her, the rest of the Robinson family had gathered in the foyer. Margaret stood with her arms crossed, glaring at Alphonse. Tyler leaned casually against the bannister, a smug grin on his face. Sophia stood beside her new boyfriend, both looking at Alphonse with disdain. Alphonse clenched his fists, trying to keep his composure,"I've come to speak with you, Vivian. Alone
