Kraig's anger simmered beneath the surface, but for now, he focused on getting Madam Zury out of this place. As they made their way out of the room and into the garden, a sense of relief washed over them. The remaining children were gathered with Howie and Wynn, along with one of the more caring nurses who had always looked out for the kids. Madam Zury's gaze shifted to the children, and she paused in her steps. Her heart ached at the sight of the young faces, their eyes filled with confusion and concern. She turned to Kraig, her voice wavering with worry, "Kraig, my dear, I can't leave them behind. How will we survive, and where would we they go?" Kraig gazed at the children, realizing that there were about 14 of them, ranging in age from 6 to 10. He gently placed a hand on Madam Zury's shoulder and assured her, "I'll find a way, Madam Zury. You all won't be stranded. But for now, let's focus on getting you to a hospital." Madam Zury let out a soft, melancholic laugh. "Oh, K
Kraig furrowed his brow, intrigued. "On what basis?"Kyle explained, "We can make some group of the DeVille Healthcare Foundation come over to the orphanage in disguise of an conducting a medical outreach program for underprivileged children. They'll come over to the orphanage for immunization and health check-ups. It's a perfect excuse, especially since Madam Zury isn't well."The director's expression turned somewhat regretful. "I was hasty and foolish, Kraig. If I had known who you were from the beginning, I would have treated you better."Kraig couldn't help but laugh bitterly. "You really think I'd want to associate with people like you?"Just as the tension between Kraig and the director was escalating, two men entered the orphanage. It was Kyle, and a other man dressed up in fancy suits.Kyle pretended not to recognize Kraig as he asked for the director of the orphanage.The director stepped forward and replied, "I'm the director. What can I do for you?"Kyle chuckled lightl
Just as the tension between Kraig and the director was escalating, two men entered the orphanage. It was Kyle, and a other man dressed up in fancy suits.Kyle pretended not to recognize Kraig as he asked for the director of the orphanage.The director stepped forward and replied, "I'm the director. What can I do for you?"Kyle chuckled lightly as he introduced himself, "I'm from the DeVille Law Firm. I'm here to inform you that the orphanage has been purchased by the DeVille Group from the Co's Foundation. As of now, you and your staff are to vacate the building within an hour."The director was left utterly speechless by this unexpected news. His face turned red with a mix of shock and anger as he stammered, "What? How is that possible?"Kraig exchanged a knowing look with Kyle, they both smiled and Kyle frowned almost instantly. The director's gaze shifted to Kraig, suspicion in his eyes. "Is this your doing, Kraig? Did you arrange this?"Wynn couldn't hold back her frustration a
The midday sun hung high in the sky, casting a radiant glow over the bustling schoolyard. Kraig was wearing a casual shirt and ripped jeans. He was sitting by a corner. His bag on his thighs. He was watching the students play basketball.His eyes were focused on the ball being thrown from one player to the other. Kraig's lips widened every time there was a win. He envied them greatly.Although he should have been one of them, but his marriage to Jade has made students make a mockery of him in college. Kraig's eyes unconsciously became moist and started to blur, But then-The ball suddenly hits his face, and his eyes sparkle.He held the ball, and all he could see at that moment was the backboard.One of the players ran to Kraig "Throw the ball, Kraig." But all Kraig thought at that moment was to make a basket. Just before they could reach him, Kraig jumped and threw the ball. Everyone's eyes followed the ball, and to their surprise-It was a goal!"Yes!" Kraig screamed as he j

Kraig's eyes met the students, and it was Caleb. Caleb was the heir to one of the wealthiest men in the city. His family contributes significantly to the university, making his influence widely known.Kraig shook his head and sai

There was a sudden distress that sting Kraig's heart. He felt a rush of jealousy running through his spine.His chest clogged of jealousy so much that he couldn't breath. But he didn't get why he was jealous, it wasn't as if Wynn was his girlfriend.'She isn't!' He convinced himself. As he took a step closer, his eyes fixed on Wynn as her lips widened into a broad smile. Kraig's heart thumped and he hiccuped.He has never noticed the dimples on her cheeks but now, he could see them clearly. She was pretty.His eyes wavered towards Howie. Compared to Kraig, Howie was a blonde with a lot of charm. His straight nose and heart shaped red lips always gives him away. He had brown eyes that makes him even more charming.Kraig looked like an enraged beast with his read eyes. Suddenly, Wynn's voice erupted him from his thoughts-"Kraig?" When their eyes met, Kraig feigned a smile and hurried to his seat pretending to be okay. As Kraig sat at the cafe table, jealousy gnawed at him, thoug
After a few rings, Luke answered the call. "Kraig, what's up?"Kraig's voice was filled with urgency. "Luke, I need you to find out everything you can about Wynn, and I mean everything. Follow that Bentley, check where it goes, who's inside, and anything unusual."Luke responded with a quick, "Understood, Kraig. I'll get on it right away."Kraig ended the call and leaned back in his seat, his mind racing with worry for Wynn.The cab soon arrived at the DeVille mansion, and Kraig rushed inside, his thoughts consumed by concern for his grandfather. He made his way to his grandfather's bedroom, where he found Kyle and a doctor in deep conversation.Kraig's eyes welled up with emotion as he entered the room. He approached his grandfather's bedside, his voice quivering as he asked, "Grandfather, what's wrong? Why is the doctor here?"His grandfather, lying on the bed, looked frail but managed a warm smile. "Ah, Kraig, my boy. It's just old age catching up with me. But I'm happy I was able
