The whole room burst into an uproar when Andrew announced that he was picking Brian's granddaughter as his share of Brian's estate. And it takes the interference from their family lawyer before the uproar dies down. "Andrea is my woman, and I suggest you take any other property that caught your fancy... He has some estate in and outside Arkansas City, some shares of multinational companies and also jewellery deposited into his safe. Pick any one of those assets and let us resolve everything today," Stevenson cried out. "You are not in the position to tell me what I should choose, Stevenson. Your job is to get the last statement of the deceased done as he instructed." "You are getting it wrong, Andrew. You are allowed to pick an asset and not a human being. Andrea is not a cattle or property to be traded," Mary mumbled. She turned toward her husband and asked, "Why aren't you saying anything?" "We need to be patient and settle it amicably, Timothy answered back. Isabella cleared

Since this is the first time Mirinda will be stepping into Arkansas City, Andrew decided to take them to beautiful places around the city, and their first destination was the city's national park. They had a breakfast picnic along the way and then went on a nature scavenger hunt on horseback. And they were as tired as worn-out shoes after some hours of horse riding. Mirinda yawned loudly and let out, "I am hungry, Andrew. I crave a heavy meal as lunch." "Miranda is right. I'm so exhausted that I can't lift my legs anymore. Let's go and eat lunch, and then relax for a while," Isabella said. "Our hotel is almost two hours from this place," Andrew said. "Maybe we should look for a comfortable inn around here." "Good idea. I can't wait any longer. I'm afraid that I may faint any moment from now." "Be strong, my dear little sister. It remains a few minutes to reach where our cars were parked." Isabella whirled towards Andrew and asked, how come you aren't complaining of hunger? Whe

Come and see our manager on his knee. Did he want to propose to that lady in a pink gown?"," one among those who had earlier praised him cried out at the top of his voice. "Something is wrong with him," his colleague let out. "Let's go closer." Some men hurried close to Jude and they all circled him, while some tried to raise him from his kneeling position. "Stand up, boss. Why are you crawling on your knees?" "Let me be... Hey! Get your dirty hands off my body." "Why is he acting strange?" "I have no idea." Isabella and Miranda gaped at the man on his knees, and the mischief on Andrew's face made them understand what was going on. A few steps to reach where Isabella and Miranda were standing, a car suddenly parked beside Jude, and a lady hurried out of the driver's seat. She raced toward Jude,

The drive from the city park to The Presidential hotel takes two hours. And Andrew and his sisters arrived when the sun was already blazing in the sky. And because of the hot weather, Miranda announced that she would like to swim in the hotel swimming pool before eating her lunch. "I'm hungry, Andrew. Let Miranda go swimming, while we eat our lunch," Isabella announced, after yawning three consecutive times in one minute. "There are places to sit beside the pool as we order our lunch," Andrew mumbled. He raised his hand and pointed towards his right side, and then let out," There are canopies over there to serve as shade against the sun as well." "Good. Let's have lunch, relax, and then go swimming," Isabella muttered. The trio walked through the long lobby, stepped down some steps, and arrived at the swimming pool side. While Andrew and Isabella looked for a place to sit, Miranda walked towards the female restroom to change into a swimming suit that she brought along from Ora

Andrew leapt over the steps and hurried towards the emergency section of the infirmary. Despite the heavy weight of the unconscious woman in his arms, he scurried through the long lobby and arrived in front of a door with a sticker, 'intensive care unit.' "Hello. Who is on duty? My sister is unconscious," he screamed out, hurried toward a patient bed beside the wall and lowered the lifeless lady into it. "Where is the doctor?" "Here, I am the doctor," an old man in a white gown and extra large spectacles appeared at the doorway. He gawked at Andrew, and then at the lady on the bed. "What did you do to her?" "Someone slapped her twice on the cheek. And she had been unconscious since then," Andrew answered back. He sighed and dipped his hand inside his pocket to search for his handkerchief. He sighed again when he discovered he had lost it, and then used the helm of his suit to clean the ball of sweat on his face. "Stepped out of the room and let me attend to her... And make sure yo
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW TO THE SOCIETY

Realising he just killed the daughter of the most powerful man in the country, he understood this was the end of his father's political ambition. "Get up, Kratos. It's not as bad as it seemed. It's an accident and I'm sure your family lawyer will save you from jail," Emily mumbled as she tried to pull Kratos to his feet." "It's worse, Emily. Elizabethan is my daddy's political godfather, and we owe all our success to him. Oh my goodness! What have I done?" "How will I explain to your father that Isabella died under my care?" Simpson asked with a shocked face. "The doctor stepped towards Andrew and then whispered into his ear. And Andrew's sad face promptly becomes less horrible. " I suggest we settle this around a table.

I thought you were dead." "I'm not dead. I just feign unconsciousness to punish Kratos." "You didn't die! Ouch... Thank you, father lord," Kratos cried out. He cleaned his sweat off with the helm of his shirt and mumbled, "I can't believe I was fooled into giving out hundreds of cars for your death when you are alive!" "You should be grateful that I pitied you. I planned to punish you severely for assaulting my sister," Andrew announced. "I hope Kratos had learnt his lesson," Simpson said. She smiled crookedly and announced, "You won't ever hit a woman again, not even with a flower, will you?" "I can't. Oh, no. I have learnt my lesson and this trauma alone is enough to stop me from raising my arm against women. My gosh! I nearly died of guilt." "My anger is with the guard who allowed himself t

A year later, Andrew had almost forget about his estranged queen, and only the vacant position of the queen keeps Jasmine's memory fresh in his brain. During the chiefs meeting one late night, the chief chamberlain cleared his throat and muttered, “When is our kingdom having a new queen? It’s over a year since Queen Jasmine left our palace.” “The chief chamberlain just spoke my mind,” An older chief in a white regalia let out. “ As our custom demand, the throne of the queen must not be vacant more than twelve months. We must choose another queen as soon as possible.” Andrew Inhale louder and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. “I can’t just make a random woman my queen. I need to first find a woman that I like, fall in love with her and then choose her. Don’t you think this is a long process that can’t be achieved in a few months.” “We all know this, your highness,” Another chief in a blue regalia and extra large hat mumbled. “We have all think this through and decided to choose Andrea
ACTING ALL SWEET
Jasmine barged into Andrew's chamber one night and met him staring at some family photos. “You don’t bother to check on me since Andrea arrived.”Andrew offered a sardonic smile and gestured to her to come closer.“I’m so sorry. You have been acting cold and making it difficult to talk to you.”Jasmine fixed her eyes on Andrew's face as she stepped closer and stood beside him. “You know why am angry, yet you keep doing the same thing to drive me to anger... Did I do wrong by marrying you?”With an innocent smile pasted on his face, Andrew shakes his head sideways and asked, “What did I do wrong? You have been avoiding me since Andrea arrived in the Palace.”“You know what you did, Andrew. So stop acting all sweet.”“I only knew Andrea’s presence here is not agreeable to you. But as you already know, she is the mother of my heir and I can’t stop her from visiting her only son.”“Oh!” Jasmine exclaimed. “Are you shaming me because I haven’t given you a child or you just hated me?”
A MATTER RELATING TO THE HEART
The legal battle was tougher than Andrew had imagined. But at last, Jackson was given the option of parole only after five years and a commendable behavior. Though it wasn't exactly what Andrew wanted. Yet still, he was glad that he was able to reduce his punishment. A year later, Andrew was attending to some political guests when he was informed of Ajay's arrival in his palace. "Take him to my private chamber. I will be with him in a few hours." He quickly dismissed his guests and rushed to attend to his childhood friend. "What brought you to my palace at this time of the night? I thought you had gone to Arkansas City for the Yuletide holiday." "Yes, I just came back some hours ago," A smile appeared on Ajay's face as he muttered," Andrea is back at the O'Connor's villa." "Oh! Why doesn't she come to me?" "She can't. She knows that you are happily married and she won't like to be a distraction to you or your wife." "Married, yes. But not happily… Do you have her new mobile n
LOVE IS NOT ENOUGH
Jacob was found dead in his room the following morning. As expected, Jackson was arrested for the murder of Teddy. During the interrogation, he refused to mention Andrew's name and insisted it was an accident. Nevertheless, he was found guilty of manslaughter and was sentenced to ten years imprisonment. Though Andrew was happy that he had avenged his father's and grandfather's death, he felt sad that Jackson ended the scapegoat. But because of the sensitivity of the case, he had no choice but to sit and watch the law take its full course. A few days after Jackson's judgment, Andrew was seen gazing absent-mindedly into the sky when he heard some footsteps behind him. He turned and a smile appeared on his face at the sight of the unexpected guests. "Hi, Simpson.""My king!"Andrew stepped closer and held Simpson in a tight embrace. He then picked up his daughter, hugged her and then ruffled Jimmy and Tommy's hair and mumbled, "You guys are growing fast," He turned towards Simpson
THE POISONED RING
Andrew was right. Bad news travels faster than its counterparts. His rumour of death had reached his enemies even before Jackson arrived. Sevreachedmen were seen in a jovial mood as Jackson stepped inside a splashy large room with a blinding light. "Welcome, Jackson. We have heard of the usurper's death, and we realized this is your handwork," Jacob announced as he held Jackson in a tight bear hug. "Now that he is dead, let's see how he wants to wear the crown.""It's my pleasure to serve you, people," Jackson mumbled as he offered his hand for a shake. And he was aware of the poisoned pin as it pricked Jacob's palm. Jacob also feels a light sting and his eyes immediately gawk at the ring on Jackson's finger. "Where is the poisoned ring?" Jacob asked as he released the breath he had been holding. Seeing a different ring on Jackson's finger brought immediate relief to him. "Here… Here it is," Jackson said as he dipped his hand into the pocket of his suit and brought out the deadly

And the two of them live like cat and mouse for months. A year later, Andrew was still wondering why he ended up with Jasmine when he was informed of a guest awaiting him. Thinking maybe it was Andrea, he immediately asked if it was a man or a woman, and disappointment could be seen on his face when he was told it was a man. "I can't see him tonight. Take him to the guest quarters until I'm free to attend to him.""Yes, Your Highness. Though he claimed that it was very urgent and begged for your immediate attention.""What is his name?""Ajay O'Connor. He seemed to know you from your days at Arkansas City.""Send him in," Andrew mumbled. He wonders what Ajay wants with him and his curiosity makes him restless until Ajay arrives. The young man was a shadow of himself. His once smooth and shining ski
WHEN THE DESIRABLE IS NOT AVAILABLE
After their first night together, Andrew and Jasmine seemed inseparable. Though their relationship can be termed one-sided, Jasmine appeared to be happy and satisfied, and it looked like Andrew had at last forgotten his lost love. Since the royal chief won't stop disturbing him from getting married, Andrew has no choice but to propose to the excited Jasmine who immediately agrees. In truth, when the desirable is not available, the available becomes the desirable. Six months later, the pair decided to tie the knot. Their marriage was the talk of the town, and a week was declared a public holiday to celebrate the important occasions. During the royal banquet, Andrew was seated among his family and friends in a deep conversation when he noticed a silhouette of a woman who resembled Andrea.

HISTORY WITH HIS EXCELLENCY
The sun was already glaring in the sky when Andrew woke up. After having a light meal, he decided to visit his ladies, at least for courtesy's sake. They came from far and near, and sending them home without attending to them seemed very insulting. They were put separately in different rooms, and Andrew knocked on the first door and stepped inside.A tall and shapely lady with a beautiful face stood up from the bed and walked towards him. "Good morning, my lord. I have been waiting for you since yesterday and I am glad that you finally come to visit me."The lady hugged him seductively and dragged him towards the bed in the middle of the room. But Andrew gently removed his hand and then motioned to the lady to sit down, while he sat beside her. "What is your name?""Janet, my lord.""And your profession?" "I'm a barrister and I'm working with a private company." Janet placed her palm on Andrew's chin to caress him, but Andrew held her hand, frowned and shook his head. "Take it eas
REAL BEAUTY LIES BENEATH THE SKIN
Three months later. Andrew was seen walking to and fro in his palace, and the grimace on his face showed his state of mind. His body shivered, and his eyes were cloudy. A red line shows around his eyes and a patch appears on his forehead. After yawning twice, he suddenly whirled towards the men at his back and asked, "Are you telling me she had grown wings and disappeared from the surface of the earth? I have spent millions of dollars to look for her, sent people from one end of the earth to the other side, and the result is always negative." "I'm sorry, my lord," A tall man with a large scar in between his eyes answered back. " I guess she didn't want to be found and had been evading us." "We heard she was in Orlando, and we immediately flew down there. But she must have heard of our arrival and disappeared before we reached her hideout." Andrew's frown deepened as he stared at the men on his front. "Why am I unfortunate to be surrounded by letdown people? I want a result and no
