2024-04-18 05:52:05Walking down the door were Mr Thomas and Mrs Lisa Thomas.
"Where did you go this morning?"
The voice of Mrs Lisa was even more detached than her husband's.
The sun was up as their shadow cast an intimidating shadow over Stiles who was still on the base of the stairs holding his blood-filled nose.
He wasn't afraid anymore, he was rather sorry for the couples as they still didn't realise that just with one call, he would make them and their stupid worth go away.
Touching his pocket, Stiles could feel his satellite phone and his premium elite card that had access to billions of dollars.
The Thomas's weren't even worth up to 0.1% of the amount of the elite card in his pocket.
But all in a bid to not draw attention to himself, Stiles had to maintain his usual low-life appearance and behaviour.
"You left this house without telling me or my husband where you were going."
As Stiles stood up to explain himself and how he had seen Raya on his way out in the morning, to his greatest shock, Mrs Lisa Thomas heaved her shoe at him.
Immediately Raya appeared from nowhere, diving in, she took a direct hit of the shoe on her stomach.
"What are you doing?!"
"Why would you do that Raya?!"
Mr Thomas and his wife screamed almost immediately.
Their eyes widened in disbelief and anxiety.
As Raya fell backwards, Stiles immediately rushed in and broke her fall.
Raya immediately stood up and stared intently at her parents, her eyes blazing in anger.
Raya held her stomach where she had taken that direct hit, she managed not to break down in front of everyone.
"Raya!"
"We asked you a question, do you want your mom to kill you accidentally?!"
Mr Thomas immediately yelled, his heart thumping faster than usual.
"What's the meaning of this madness?"
Mrs Lisa Thomas added as she held her heart and breathed out loudly.
The situation was intense, Stiles was rather more confused than everyone there.
He was yet to truly understand the motive of Raya in the action she just displayed.
"Mom, Dad… listen to me, before you both will kill Stiles, you have to kill me and bury me first."
Her voice was laced with a mixture of authority and anger as she stared angrily at her mom and dad.
"Raya please stop talking to your parents like that because of a poor brat like me."
Stiles said sarcastically without making any face contact with Mr Thomas and Mrs Lisa Thomas.
Mr Thomas immediately stepped closer to them as Raya was still shielding Stiles behind her.
"Raya, come here now!" Mr Thomas yelled.
"Raya, are you out of your mind?"
"Have you gone nuts?"
"What could you, my daughter, be doing with this filthy, low-life nobody?"
"It's a good thing I haven't fully finalised his adoption papers for reasons best known to me and your mom."
"Do you even see how he is dressed up in that Halloween costume he calls a dress."
Mr Thomas said mockingly as he and his wife laughed out loud.
"C'mon Raya, listen to Daddy, you have a future with Antonio Henry, you can afford to settle down with this thing that we pick up from the local orphanage."
Mrs Lisa Thomas added as she held her nose up in disgust.
"The Henry's are more powerful and influential than we are, we need you to marry Antonio Henry the only heir to the great Henry's empire."
"Your marriage to him will help us unite both our families and build a super business empire."
As Mr Thomas was about to add more to the reasons why Raya should marry Antonio Henry, Raya immediately interjected.
"Mom, Dad, I hate Antonio Henry, it's Stiles I want to be with, and there is nothing you or anyone can do about it."
Raya immediately yelled as she dashed out and jumped into her brand new Bugatti Mistral and zoomed off the mansion.
Stiles stared at her as she drove off into the streets.
Mr Thomas immediately jumped down the stairs and hopped into his Rolls-Royce.
"Follow my daughter now!"
He yelled at his driver who immediately followed Raya.
Mrs Lisa Thomas immediately rushed Stiles and hooked him by his shirt.
"What have you done to my daughter?"
"So this has been your evil scheme all these years."
"You plan to turn my daughter against us?"
Stiles just stared at the whole thing in bewilderment, he was just as confused as Mrs Lisa.
"Ma, I'm as confused as you on this."
Stiles finally spoke as Mrs Lisa was still shaking him vehemently.
As the commotion between Stiles and Mrs Lisa Thomas continued, his Satellite phone immediately beeped.
Stiles' demeanour immediately went from confusion to a mixture of trepidation and anxiety.
"What's that sound?"
Mrs Lisa Thomas asked as she stared at the pocket of Stiles.
"Ma, it's nothing…"
Stiles immediately said, his voice barely above whispers as he stared into the eyes of Mrs Lisa.
"It's this new wristband I won off a bet with some dudes down the street."
Stiles said as he showed Mrs Lisa Thomas the wristband.
Moments later, Stiles is walking to his room happy that Mrs Lisa had bought his coverup story.
As he walked through Raya's room, his eyes widened in surprise as her door was wide open.
"Raya, are you in?"
"I thought you had run off earlier."
Stiles said, his voice barely above whispers as he walked into her room.
Pacing around he walked towards the door as he was about to close the door and walk away, his eyes caught something.
Something he should never have seen in the first place.
Stiles' eyes widened in disbelief and trepidation as he stared at pictures of himself and Jonathan Jacobs at the Lex suites lying on Raya's bed.
He immediately picked up the
pictures, his hands were quaky, and beads of sweat built down his cheek.
"What is really going on here?"
"Who really are you, Raya Thomas?"

He barely registered Miss Laura's presence as he shoved past her, heading straight for the garage door. The cold metal felt like a barricade to the truth, and he needed answers,now.His heart hammered in his chest, every step more frantic than the last. He reached the door, and before he could push it open, Mr Jonathan caught up to him, grabbing his arm."Stiles, slow down. We need to think this through." His voice was calm, controlled, but the anxiety in his eyes betrayed him."I can’t.I have to find my father.”Stiles replied, his voice tight with urgency.The door creaked as Stiles swung it open, his breath catching in his throat. The garage was dark, the air stale with the scent of oil and dust. His eyes scanned the room, but it was empty, save for a few parked cars and scattered tools. No sign of his father."Where is he?.”Stiles muttered to himself, stepping further into the room, his hand grazing the cold metal of a car door."Stiles, we don’t even know if he’s in here,this i

“You’re the one who did this?You set me up, Sophia? You know how much I care about Raya, and you…”Stiles’ voice broke through the silence, the accusation sharp and raw.His words faltered for a second as if the betrayal was too much for him to fully articulate, but the anger in his voice made it clear how deeply this hurt him.Sophia’s gaze flickered, a flicker of something unreadable crossing her face before she masked it with a thin, victorious smile. “I did what I had to do, Stiles. You wouldn’t have learned your lesson any other way. She deserves better than someone like you.”“What, Sophia I can't believe you are being all this shit.”Raya spoke as she gazed at her scornfully.“Cousin, I did it for the betterment of your future.”Sophia spoke as she grabbed Raya's hand.“My BETTERMENT, or do you mean the betterment of the THOMAS’S FAMILY, yes Sophia, I know about everything you guys have been doing, you guys have been trying to take me out from the exclusive contract that was g

Raya finally turned her head, meeting his gaze. Her eyes were hollow, distant, like she was looking through him rather than at him. “Explain? What is there to explain, Stiles? You don’t get to just walk in here like everything’s fine. Not after what you did.”Stiles’s heart clenched at the weight in her voice. She was breaking, but the walls around her were solid as ever.“I didn’t…” His voice faltered. He didn’t know how to make her see. How to make her believe him when every word she’d heard painted him as the villain.“I didn’t mean for it to happen. I never wanted to hurt you, Raya. I swear, I…”“Enough,I don’t want to hear it. You made your choices. You made your bed. Now lie in it.”Raya cut him off, her voice quiet but firm.Her words were like a slap, and they stung worse than anything she could have thrown at him. His chest tightened as if all the air had been sucked from the world, leaving him with nothing but his own failures.The silence that followed felt heavier than b

Mrs Lisa’s gaze softened slightly, but her voice was sharp. “You’re not telling us everything. What did you do, Sophia?.”Sophia’s eyes narrowed. “I told her. Everything. About Stiles kissing a random girl in a restaurant I even sent her a picture of the both of them. She’ll never trust him again. And once that trust is gone, everything falls apart.”Mrs Lisa Thomas face was marked with a smile as she turned and gazed at Mr Thomas, whose face was also marked with a smile.“No wonder why she has not come out of her room since today.”Mrs Lisa spoke.“ I should go and check up on her, you know, for family reasons.”Sophia spoke as she stood up from the couch and walked towards the stairs.“Sophia!”Mr Thomas called out her name.“Yes, uncle.”She replied as she stood halfway up the stairs.“Tell her to get ready for the Henderson Global Conglomerate company Anniversary, which should start in a few minutes, he said he his going to introduce his long lost son to all Oxford valley.”Mr J

Stiles felt his heart skip a beat. The weight of his father's words settled over him like a lead blanket. He stood frozen, the gravity of the moment pulling him in every direction."I…”He tried to speak, but the words got caught in his throat. His mind raced, desperately trying to piece together what this meant, what it could mean for his future, and what kind of mess he was already tangled in.His father’s holographic form was crisp and clear, but Stiles couldn’t shake the feeling that it was all too surreal. His gaze flickered between his father and Mr. Jonathan, then finally landed on the princess, whose smile hadn't faltered for even a moment.“You want to announce it tomorrow?”“In front of everyone?” Stiles repeated, his voice rough. Mr Henderson, in his perfectly tailored suit, stood tall with an air of finality about him. He took another sip from his glass, watching his son with a calmness that only deepened the unease in Stiles’s chest.“Yes. It’s time.” His father replie

Mr Jonathan didn’t answer right away, his presence solid beside him, as though giving Stiles space to come to terms with the question himself. “You won’t know until you try.”Mr Jonathan finally spoke.The words hung in the air between them, heavy with meaning. Stiles sat there for a long moment, staring at the dim city lights flickering in the distance, the sounds of the night city surrounding him. He knew Mr. Jonathan was right. But it didn’t make the reality of the situation any easier.He wanted to fix it. He wanted to undo the betrayal. But in the end, only Raya could decide if that was even possible.Stiles ran a hand through his hair, his shoulders sagging as he stared at the ground. "I don't know how I can look her in the eye again.”He whispered, his voice breaking with the weight of his words.“You will. You’ll find the courage. Because that’s what you do when you love someone. You face the music, no matter how ugly it is.”Mr Jonathan spoke, as he took a glance at Stiles

"Why did you even go on that date? Why didn’t you tell me? You could have been honest with me, Stiles. I would have understood. But now… Now everything feels like a lie.”Stiles throat felt tight, and he swallowed hard, he then turned and gazed Mr Jonathan, who was staring worriedly at him."I didn't know how to tell you. I thought it was harmless at first, just a casual dinner, but I should have told you. I should have been honest from the start. I was scared,scared that you’d leave me if you knew how much I’d messed up. But I see now that lying was the worst thing I could have done.”The silence on the other end was suffocating. Stiles waited, his pulse racing, unable to guess what was going on in her mind. He could hear her breathing softly, as if weighing his words, as if trying to decide whether she could believe him, whether she could ever trust him again.Finally, she spoke again, her voice softer now but filled with sorrow. "I need time, Stiles. I need time to think. I don’t
