Lisa stared at their hands and quickly withdrew her hand from Smith’s grip. “Don’t do that again.”

Smith swallowed. “Sorry. I’m sorry.,

She took a deep breath. “Just because we are playing this whole drama till my cousins leave doesn’t give you the right to come close to me or engage me in any pep talk.”

Smith nodded and moved to the end of the car seat. When he was speaking to her about the reasons why her cousins disliked her, he had seen the way her pupils dilated and he thought that for a moment he could connect with her but it was obvious that he was mistaken.

Lisa flipped her hair and then crossed her legs. “They’ll be gone by next tomorrow anyway so you’ll go back to taking cabs before you start getting used to this treatment.”

“Of course!” Smith replied and turned away.

The door to the front seat was pushed open. Mr. Carson sat in front and shortly, the chauffeur joined him.

As the car swerved out of the mansion, Lisa engaged her father in talks about the upcoming meeting whil

    “Is that Smith?” Nelly blinked repeatedly and quickly turned around as if she was seeking her sister, Greta.It was a few minutes past 1 pm and after getting bored with the cooking sessions Margaret and Greta were having back at home, Nelly decided to drop by the Carson Company. It’s been a year since she visited the company so her curiosity wanted to see whether there had been some changes so that she could report to her father as soon as they got back home.It’s been a minute since Nelly made her way to the top floor where Mr. Carson’s office was located. Neither Lisa nor Mr. Carson knew that she was coming. She had wanted to surprise them, look around the company and maybe pull Lisa for a cup of coffee in town but then, she was seeing Smith mopping the front of Mr. Carson’s office and she couldn’t help but feel confused.“Excuse me?” someone spokeNelly quickly turned around with her left hand on her chest. “You frightened me.” She said to the man standing before her.He smiled. “I

    “Lisa!” Mr. Carson tried to interfere but his daughter turned to him with a hostile expression. “There is only on way that Nelly would have known about this.” “And you think that way was by Smith telling her everything? She probably went to the office and saw things herself.” Mr. Carson said and slapped his forehead. “It’s my entire fault. We should have been more careful.”“It’s no one’s fault, dad. Smith is not a child. And so what if Nelly saw him cleaning? He could have made up an excuse and tell her that something got split and he needed to take care of it but instead he went and shoved our secret down her throat. He did this to spite us for all the work we make him do. Such an ungrateful man.”Mr. Carson sighed and shook his head. “You know what; I’ve had enough for today.” He left for his chamber.Lisa clenched her jaw and began to climb the staircase with her nostrils puffing hot air.*****“We are here, sir.” Announced the driver.Smith sat up with a sigh. He pulled out a f

    “Come in.” Lisa responded immediately after the door to her chamber was pushed open. Then she began to rant. “I thought you were going to spend the whole night outside. You do owe me and my family an apology for breaching our contract.” When she heard no response, she lifted her head and saw that it was her mother standing before her not Smith as she presumed. Lisa sighed and collapsed by the edge of her bed.Margaret walked up to Lisa and settled beside her. “You look troubled.”“I am angry.” Lisa supplied and flipped her hair.“And you are troubled as well. Look at you. You are still in your office clothes. Its past 10 pm Lisa. You have not even taken a bath. I never knew you were so concerned about that good for nothing husband of yours.” Said Margaret.Lisa sat up and began to unbutton her coat. “I don’t care about him mom. I’m just pissed and I want to vent all my frustration on him before I retire for the day.”Margaret stood up after a sigh. “Well, you should do what you have

    “Trust me by the time she finds out who you are, she will be begging you to take her back.” Jackson swore before pulling the car to a halt.“I don’t think so,” Nathan countered. “Lisa is rich. Like super rich. She must be happy now that a pauper like me is out of her life. I just wonder what she will say to her extended family.” Jackson chuckled and began to wind down the reflectors. “I don’t know how rich she is but rust me, you are way richer.”“If you say so.” Nathan replied and began to study his environment. “Why are we in an airport?” he turned to Jackson.“We are taking an aircraft to Rockville.” Jackson replied and stepped out of the car. A young man dressed in a black overall walked up to them. Jackson threw the car keys to the man and began matching toward the hanger where several planes were parked.“Where is Rockville?” Nathan asked as they approached an aircraft with an Alcantara logo.“Rockville is home.” Jackson said and pointed at a particular aircraft. “Let’s go.

    Lisa was on her way to her father’s office when she spotted Samson stepping out with a cup of coffee. She stopped by the door and looked up at Samson who seemed devastated.“Is there a problem?”Samson sighed. “Looks like fixing your father’s coffee is such a herculean task. This is the second cup of coffee I’ve delivered to him and he is still not satisfied.”“Well, looks like you will be fixing the third.” Lisa said.Samson tilted the mug and shook his head. “He said it was too sweet and it was not as if I added lots of sugar.”Lisa looked around. “Where is Smith? Shouldn’t he be the one doing this?” Immediately after she asked the question, her heart skipped a beat. It then dawned on her that Smith didn’t return home last night. She sighed.“Yeah. Where is Smith? I mean, I should be asking you that question because he lives in your house. Why isn’t he here anyway? It’s past 10 am.” Samson cried out.Lisa cleared her throat loudly and quickly looked away. “I guess he got caught up

    As the jeep swerved down the straight path ahead, Nathan sat up and looked through the open window on his side. He was sitting in front, right next to the driver. Charles and Jackson, together with the other guards were seated at the back in silence.“Welcome to Rockville city. Welcome home.” Charles professed after they drove into the city.Nathan nodded and kept staring at the streets illuminated by lights. The car drove past buildings, structures and other construction sites which he vaguely remembered. He read sign posts and stressed his eyes over certain buildings, hoping to get a clear memory of his surrounding but he got none.After driving for over an hour into the streets, the driver took a bend and was now driving toward a deserted perimeter. The car had pulled away from the main street and they were now surrounded by shrubs and a few buildings. Nathan turned to Jackson. “I thought we are going home? Where are you guys taking me?”Jackson flashed an insecure smile. “We will

    “I think he’s awake.” Jackson pointed out when he saw Nathan’s lashes flickering. Charles immediately stood up and rushed toward the bed but Jacskon had already reached there. After Nathan passed out at the cemetery, they placed him in the car and then drove straight to the Alcantara mansion after contacting a doctor. Upon seeing Nathan, the Alcantara family doctor is shocked but Jackson asks him to do his job and ensures no word slips out about Nathan being alive and his return to Rockville. Just as Jackson predicted, the doctor revealed that Nathan passed out due to excessive shock. The doctor examined him and placed him on a steroid. He then informed them that Nathan was going to be asleep for a long while. Nathan finally opened his eyes and the first thing he saw was Charles and Jacskon, looking down at him. “Water!” He cried out and tried to get up. While Charles rushed to get a glass of water, Jackson went to Nathan and helped him to sit up. He then placed a pillow behind

    When Nathan opened his eyes, his breathing had stabilized. There was no longer a heftiness attached to his eyes and the headache that had plagued him was gone. He sat up and looked around.Charles and Jackson weren’t there. They had left him alone to rest. Nathan stretched and turned to the wall clock on his left. It was quarter past 7 pm. He stood up and moved to his closet. Nothing had changed. His clothes were intact and the whole room smelt of lavender just like old times. This gave him the impression that even in his absence, the nature of the mansion had been maintained. He took off his clothes and strode to the bathroom after grabbing a bath towel. Nathan realized that the bar soap and shaving creams were intact. He checked each one to confirm whether they were the items he left years ago but he discovered that the products were the latest. He sighed and wondered what kind of hope Jackson and the others possessed. They had kept his memory alive and right now, he had no idea

    Steve pulled the car to a halt in front of the airport building. Nathan turned to Avery with a smile. “You still want to do this?” He asked with his hand stretched out toward her. She took his hand into hers. “More than anything in the world. I’ve been running around for years and I never told you this but the main reason why I came back to Rockville was to make peace with your soul and then build my brand from scratch now that you’re here, I just want to spend as much time with you as possible, away from the whole chaos and drama. Just the two of us.” Nathan planted a kiss on her forehead. “Thank you so much, Avery.”She smiled. “I’m excited. It’s going to be my first time in Russia and I just can’t wait to explore the city with the love of my life.”Steve cleared his throat loudly. “Looks like I also need to find the love of my life and take her to Russia.”They laughed.Suddenly, Nathan’s phone began to ring. He heaved a deep sigh and turned to Avery. “It’s Charles.”“It’s over.”

    Morgan turned to his bodyguards who had been inside the lounge with him all this while. “Call for reinforcements. We’ve been tricked.”Derrick darted Morgan’s attention toward the chip on the table. “It’s a camouflage. It’s all programming shit.” He said and began to take off his jacket. Morgan was already sweating profusely. “I must find the real Alex. I need to kill that bastard today.”“Are you even serious?” Derrick cried out. “We are in a mess. That chip proved that this whole session was recorded.” He took his head into his hands. “I should have listened to Kelvin. This was a bad idea and now, we’re doomed. I’m not even sure if we’re the only ones in this building right now.”“I reserved the whole damn building and apart from the staff, there’s no damn customer here.” Morgan retorted and threw his gun on the floor. “My backup team will be here any moment from now and we’ll get the hell out of here. As for that recording chip, I don’t care about what’s in it or who had access t

    “Now that your girlfriend is safe and out of the picture, let’s talk business,” Morgan said to Nathan’s camouflage who was sitting before him and Derrick. Both men had no idea that the man sitting in front of them was a product of science programmed to function like Alexander Alcantara with a chip buried in his head. The camouflage was programmed to follow Cole’s instructions and ever since he walked into the longue, his words and actions were being directed by Coke from outside. “Why did you kill my parents?” The camouflage asked Morgan. Morgan broke into a laugh. “Seriously? Do you think I have time for this? Do you want me to respond to your stupid questions? You’re doing this to buy time right?”“Isn’t it obvious that you have me under your mercy? If you are going to take me out then at least I deserve the chance to know why you killed everyone in my family.” Nathan replied. “For my brother’s sake.” Morgan quickly replied. “You killed Corrigan, the only person in the world wh

    Nathan stretched his hand toward Avery and held her hand tightly. “You’ll be fine.” He mumbled to her lovingly. She nodded repeatedly.Derrick clenched his jaw and looked away while his bowels continued to heat up with rage. “You’re lying,” Morgan replied. “I gave you ten minutes to come here and according to my guards, you came alone so how did you get to rally troops and station them here?”Nathan chuckled. “I didn’t bring any troops from home. If you and your partner were smart enough, you’d know that this is the Grandiose Hotel and the Grandiose Hotel belongs to the Alcantaras.”Derrick and Morgan exchanged glances. “Shit!” Derrick cussed and rubbed his hair repeatedly. “It didn’t cross my mind.”Morgan frowned. “All I had to was give the manager a phone call before coming in. I told him that if four minutes pass by and Avery does not come walking through the door, he should tell the restaurant security squad to start firing.” Nathan said. Suddenly, Derrick snatched Morgan’s g

    The waitresses returned carrying food trays. They graciously placed it on the table. Morgan reached for the plate of steak and began to devour it like a hungry lion. Avery kept staring at her plate of pasta and meatballs. “Are you okay?” Derrick demanded. “Yeah.” She replied and looked up. “Don’t eat that.” Nathan’s voice came through the chip. She heaved a deep sigh because that was exactly what was on her mind. What if the food was poisoned? She kept thinking. Nathan continued speaking to her. “Leave your bag there and get up. Act normal and tell them you need to use the restroom then you head out.”“I think I need to pee,” Avery announced. Morgan stopped eating and dropped his plate immediately. “But you just got here?”“Yeah.” Derrick agreed with a nod. Avery faked a smile and quickly stood up. “I think I had a lot of water earlier and now, I need to pee. I’ll be back soon.” She said. She was about to turn around when Morgan spoke. “Excuse me?” Avery turned around lookin

    “You look as gorgeous as ever,” Nathan commented while Avery was tracing her way down the staircase. It was time to meet Derrick. He had already dropped the location and had called a while ago to say that he was on his way. Avery was wearing a short black floral dress with black sandals to match. Nathan had insisted that she apply makeup so that Derrick doesn’t sense her insecurity. “Are you sure about this?” Avery asked when she reached Nathan. Nathan took her face into his hands. “You’ll be fine. I promise you with my life.”She smiled. “If you say so.”“Remember, act normal and do as he says. Okay?”“Got it,” Avery replied and walked away. By the time she arrived at the restaurant, Derrick was already inside because he had texted her about three minutes ago that he had arrived. On her part, Avery had convinced him that their meeting was a secret because Nathan was not going to approve. She had taken a cab to get there. When Avery walked into the building, she was stunned by i

    “Welcome, bro. What can I offer you?” Nathan demanded the moment Kelvin walked into his living room. Kelvin marched in and didn’t even look at the couch Nathan was presenting to him. “I don’t think I can sit.”“You look restless. What’s the matter?”Kelvin sighed and faced Nathan. “It’s Derrick. He had been in my place for the past three days and he’s been looking like shit.”“Did you ask you to come here and convince Avery to go back to me?” Nathan asked. He then raised an index finger. “Listen, tell Derrick that if I see him close to my woman, I’ll kill him so he should leave her alone.”“That’s not why I’m here.” Kelvin sharply replied. “Last night, he went on a rampage and drank several bottles of my wine and when I walked into him in my living room, he was half conscious and he said some things.”Nathan abruptly stood up. “What did he say?”“You and I both know that it’ll be difficult for a man like Derrick to change.” Said Kelvin. “It’s not like I’m condemning him.” He quickly

    “He’s coming out shortly,” Daniel reported and sat with the rest of the team. That morning, Morgan’s allies stormed his mansion to talk about the tragic events that were unfolding. It was no news that his biggest warehouse was burnt to ashes. That evening, another one was looted and by midnight, Morgan got information that his security guards were attacked on their way back from the club and 6 perished while two were in a coma. Morgan made his way down the staircase, carrying the weight of his problems. However, he was sober and didn’t display any angry reaction. Perhaps, he was too beaten by the incidents that he had lost his will to react. His Allies looked upon him as he made his way toward them. The group consisted of his friends and partners who had helped him execute shady deals in the past. After he sat, Daniel stood up and cleared his throat loudly. “There is no denying that we all know who is behind the constant attacks. Without mincing words, I’d like to inform you all t

    It was Saturday morning and during the weekends, Morgan plays tennis with Daniel, his assistant. Daniel is no fan of table tennis and barely knows how to hold the bat but every Saturday and Sunday morning, he shows up dressed in shorts with his gears just to impress Morgan. Also, Morgan knew that his assistant was bad in the sport so it gave him an edge to defeat him completely all the time. This morning, Daniel was already seated by the court in Morgan’s house and was waiting for his boss to show up. Morgan had just stepped out of his room and was on his way toward the living room before heading out to your court when his phone began to ring. He frowned and didn’t pick up the call. Even though he was a workaholic, he had made it clear to his workers that none of them would disturb him with work matters except if it was an emergency. The call persisted and the warning bells in Morgan’s head began to ring. What if this particular call was a case of emergency?The call was coming fr
