The Blind Consortium's Heir 11
Aidan's face has this agonized smiling expression that tore at his grandfather's heart. When a Karanos smiles in danger or pain, the reason behind it should run a marathon every second because if those smiles should be turned into an evil smirk, woe upon woe would be upon that person. Mr. Kal took Aidan's hand and patted it, "you need to think with a clear mind, son. Whatever is going on in your head, just know that God has been with you all these while and he'd keep you alive for a reason. Don't be so hard on yourself, and don't act foolishly too. You have a lot to learn my boy." Aidan's body tensed and his muscles clenched, he felt his body temperature rising in such a way that he wished for a cold bath, but he was in no right frame of mind. He'd been angry before, but never like this. The way he was feeling now could not be compared to anything he'd felt before. He was angry and in pain when Arissa broke his heart, but what he's currently feeling now is like a dozen of what he
The Blind Consortium's Heir 12
Aidan surveyed the room that was once his mother's. The room itself screams money, the designs are simple but exquisite. His mother must have loved his father to leave everything and go to him. Love? He sat down on the nearest cushion and relaxed his head. His love life is nothing interesting and yet interesting. When he got married to Arissa, things seemed to have fallen into place for once in his life, but it turns out everything was just an illusion. Yeah... He was living an illusion. It is a wonder to him how they have the guts to think of killing him for something that's rightfully his. His own company. A smirk carved across his face. Staying with the Pedros has revealed a lot more about them than he could comprehend. The darn family painted a picture-perfect family to the public but nothing is going right with them. Everything about the family is just wrong. They portrayed good images to the public through the media, and in reality... They are monsters, greedy monster

His eyes fluttered open gently and he could feel the aches in his body were gone. He looked around at the enormous room he'd slept in, a painful smile displayed on his face. There were many reasons for it... His sight was a blessing to him, being able to see again changes everything, it's like he's born again. Being a blind person wasn't easy, back at his in-law's house, he'd been treated like shit. Even the servants and dogs in the house got better treatment than him, he was reminded every darn day that he was nothing but a liability to the family. At the time, he'd even thought himself a liability to the world. He was a healthy young man, intelligent, and had a lot to offer the world but when blindness hit him after the accident, he felt useless... Like a wasted entity and the people he'd considered family always remind him of what he is and the zero respect he commands in the family. Standing up, he gave a long strength, he could hear his bone making some cracking sound. "Go

Jonas looked at Aidan, he smiled at him, he knew his mind must be raising different questions for him. His grandfather had given him the right to choose what he wants, to decide his future..... Although Mr. Kal won't force his decision on Aiden, Jonas knew it would break his boss's heart if Aidan decided to go away from him. His boss had been in pain and regret when his daughter died, he'd witnessed Mr. Kal whip like a baby, cursing himself for his inability to save his daughter despite having so much power. Jonas knew Aidan would make a great choice, the young man is already burning with the fire of vengeance and he'd always craved for a family to call his. Aidan suddenly came to a halt, trying to control his fast-beating heart. The kind of tension he's having now is new, even back in school when he was having the most difficult exams or seating for a scholarship, he'd been composed but he just can't figure out why his heart is beating so fast, creating dizziness for him. A tho

"What do you want to speak to me about Jonas?" Aidan asked as they walked through the very large garden in the mansion. Jonas had been silent ever since they left the secret room, Aidan chose to remain quiet and wait for Jonas to speak up, but as usual, the man was slow...just the way he was in the dining room. It requires a lot of patience to deal with Jonas. Aidan is a patient man, he was always commended for that back at the university but he seems to lose his patience when Jonas is concerned.Jonas had hit his limit point when it comes to patience."Isn't it a beautiful morning huh?" Jonas asked, squatting to admire a wild rose. Ok. Now, what has the morning got to do with what they want to talk about. Aidan sighed, the saying 'Hit the nail on the head' isn't for Jonas, he's never specific about a particular topic, he likes beating around the bush. "Uhmmm..yeah," Aidan answered, clearly not interested in the beautiful morning Jonas was talking about."Do you love flowers?" Jo

"Welcome A.K., how was your day?" Eva's voice greeted him as he entered his room. Oh yeah, he had a wife and that's Eva, the bot is acting like one... A responsible one. "My day was exploring. I took my time to explore some of the mansion so I won't get lost again, I almost got lost this morning." He replied."Hard luck, you should have asked for directions. I have the data of everything and everyone here." It explained. There was a knock on his door, Eva displayed the person on a screen Aidan didn't know existed before now, it was right on the door. "Cora Jonas is here to see you, should I let her in?" Eva announced. "Yes please, let her in." Aidan wondered what she was doing in his room, it was not yet time for the dance fight, it was just past seven in the evening.Mr. Kal hasn't returned from his medical check-up, so lunch and dinner were quick ones. Jonas had shown him around the house till he decided to come prepared for the evening.Cora walked in elegantly, dropping a ba

"Hello, Aidan" Mr. Kal's voice interrupted his thoughts. Aidan turned around swiftly to meet both Mr. Kal and Jonas. They were both heading towards him, "are you sure you wanna have a dance fight with Cora? She rocks at it and from my observations on you over the years, you showed no interest in dance fighting." Jonas asked him, a little bit worried."Let the boy be. There's always a first time for everything." Mr. Kal said and grabbed Jonas by the hand.Aidan feigned a smile, his mind occupied by something else. It was his granddaughter, the man had told him he was dying. Though he was looking frail when he saw him the first time, he seems to be getting better every second. The thought of losing his grandfather didn't sit well with him, some part of him still hasn't accepted the man but he feels super lucky to find his family in this lifetime of his. It's like a pure miracle to him. "Hey, don't think too much, just try your best and punch her hard, don't be deceived by her petit
The Blind Consortium's Heir 18
Aidan had always loved a silent environment, loved his own solitude company but right now, his grandfather's silence is pissing him off. He's been walking with him for the past twenty minutes, and he never did as much as look at him and smile. He didn't know what he was thinking, or what he had to do. He just followed him through one of the many gardens in the mansion. He was pissed off for the first twenty minutes plus but he began to enjoy the walk, the natures gentle breeze caresses on his face is sensational, the beautiful scents of the flowers are surprisingly refreshing and to mask it all....walking with his grandfather was giving him a thrill he'd never felt before, not even when he met Arissa. The feeling of being with him filled him with these emotions that tug at his heart, making him wish to engulf him in a hug. He immediately dismissed the thoughts as soon as they came, hugging his grandfather! Odd. "I'm boring you right?" Mr. Kal asked, suddenly interrupting his od
