The Elite club has always been the dream of most people in the city, knowing that they enjoy so much luxury and privileges which was why Mrs. Smith could not miss out on the opportunity, for her, it did not matter if she had to murder several people for this strange man called Jason, all she thought to herself was that it was worth it since she walks finally able to join the Elite club.Mrs. Eleanor Smith is dressed in a floor-length sleeves gown in a rich, jewel-toned emerald green. The gown hung her curves in all the right places and no doubt that anyone who had come across her could tell that this was indeed a sophisticated gown.She walks over to the receptionist whom she spoke with on the phone and after her Elite access card is handed out to her, Mrs. Smith elegantly walks up to a group of women seated at a round table and joins them while they all look at her stunned.“Oh! Pardon my manners, my name is Mrs. Eleanor Smith and I just recently joined the Elite club so I was hoping
Mrs. Smith has not been used to this luxurious life but as soon as eh I was granted membership to the club, she was so excited that she made extra efforts to look elegant and was not aware of the difference a fake and real jewries which was how she ended up going over there with fake jewries.The women seated at the table were so engrossed in other things that they had failed to notice the earrings and necklaces she wore until Harper who was just seven years old spoke of it.“Come on boy, you should not be rude to your elders and besides, my Jewries is not fake, do you know that they cost me a fortune”“Then you must be pretty dumb not to see that you have been cheated!” He explained with all innocence in his eyes that the ladies could not help but giggle.“Come on Harper, do not be rude to the lady” Amelia tries to call him to order although she is fully aware that the damage has been done, a deep frown spread on Eleanor's face. She was filled with humiliation that despite how much s
Walking back to the ladies, their eyes were glued at her with a curious expression staring at her. “Have you gotten it sorted out ma'am?” The waiter asked and even up to this point, he was still trying to be as polite as possible.“Well, the thing is, it did not go too well, how about I pay up ten million dollars first, and then by tomorrow I can come to settle the rest of the bill?”She suggested and Grace could not help but chuckle. “Are you for real, you come here all fake knowing that you are not up to the standard of this club, and yet….”“That is not true, most times I can afford this, but I only came here with one of my credit cards and since you all had drunk the wine, don't you think that you should help out in such a situation?” Eleanor suggested again and Sheryl scoffed sarcastically. “You are so unbelievably! You were the one who suggested buying us each a bottle of wine even while we kicked against it and now you are going to make us pay, it is not like we are not capab
As soon as Avery and her Aunt were both in the car, the driver drove off, and right then, Sasha who was fuming with so much rage finally turned to Avery.“What was that madness you just displayed out there, do you pick the money up from the ground or do you just have so much to waste?”“Come on Aunt, how can you all just stand there and watch her being humiliated like that knowing it was the first day of her joining the club and there was no way that she would know how things work for her? You all spend more than that daily, the least you could do was help her”“Why should we, she came in and was acting all elegant like she was richer than all of us put together, she was carrying a Hilton purse worth eighty million dollars which I can't tell if she borrowed it, she sat there like she was some kind of special and made orders for five bottles of the most expensive wine”“Five bottles?”“Yes Avery! She should have known her place since this was her first time here, but rather she wanted
Adrian and Klein both stood outside the coffee shop that Eva visited every day at noon, they had been there earlier before noon and yet Adrian could not place his hand as to why she came here or what Kelvin was up to.“What are we going to do, are we just going to keep sitting here and staring at the coffee shop when we both know that you have a lot of work to do”Klein complained after sitting in the car for a few minutes. “Klein go in there and order two black coffee, monitor the environment, and tell me if there is anything out of the ordinary, we are going to be comparing it to when Eva comes in”“Alright, I agree that it is better sipping through a cup of coffee rather than just seated here and doing nothing.” He grunted no doubt that he was not buying the idea of spying on Eva, and could not tell why Adrian would even bother to go to such length.It was just Adrian in the car now and while he was patiently staring out and tapping his finger, he noticed a woman dressed in a sophi
Walking back to the car, the lady in the car had cried out her eyes thinking that she had lost her bag and all of its contents, but when she saw Adrian coming back, her eyes popped out in surprise that she had to blink twice to believe that she had not been deceived.She quickly hopped out of the car, a smile slowly spreading through her face. “Oh my God, you were able to retrieve my bag?'' She was indeed overwhelmed by both surprise and excitement.As soon as Adrian handed over the bag to her, she did not say anything else but went ahead to first open the bag so that she could confirm its content. Once she was certain that everything was intact, he let out a long sigh of relief.“What is your name, young man?”“It is Adrian”“Adrian I am Emma Shawn and a renowned designer, most of my sketches are in this bag and they are the reason I came back to town for a show, if this were to get into the wrong hands, then that means that I have lost everything that I worked all my life for. I am
Back at the Wesley estate, Aunt Emma who has been away from the country for six years now was finally back home and the entire family was so excited. She was doing so well in her career as a fashion designer in the city until after her divorce which took place a few years after the loss of her son.While Emma was still trying to cope with the loss of her son which was very hard on her and at that point it felt like she was losing her senses, her husband issued a divorce agreement, that was when she almost lost it and to get back on her feet, she had to leave the country and open up a branch in the states.After six years, she was back home, and even while Emma made preparations for this show, she had no intention of staying that long so she did not get reminded of the pain that she felt years ago.“Aunt Emma, we are so glad to have you back home, on several occasions when I spoke to you on the phone, you assured me that you were going to come back home each Christmas Eve, but you neve
When Mrs. Smith arrived back home after the awful experience at the club, her husband Reynold was anxiously waiting for her, but as soon as she arrived, no doubt that anyone in her condition would be exhausted and she fell on the couch.“Finally! You decided to show up after trying to put me in a huge problem, please tell me that you have not exhausted the ten million dollars in the card in your possession else we are going to be in a huge problem”“Is money the only thing that matters to you? I told you that I would have a huge problem if I could not foot the bill for the expenses that I made and yet you did not seem to care!”“Tell me Eleanor, why should I care about whatever problem that you chose to get into, why in the world would you even think of spending twenty-five million dollars in a single day!”“I told you that was not my intention. There was no way that I would have known that the wine was going to cost that much”“You bought wine worth twenty-five million dollars!” Finn
Kelvin remained standing, although he soon did not feel comfortable about his actions, yet he remained calm. “Whatever it is that you have to say, be quick with it and leave as soon as possible, I told you the last time that we met that I do not want to have anything to do with the underworld again”“The sanctuary was burnt down” Jason suddenly blurted, ignoring what Kelvin was ranting about.“That is a joke right?” Kelvin asked with a soft chuckle that escaped his lips. “The sanctuary is filled with supernatural items, there is no way that he would burn down no matter what they did, which is why I think that this is a joke”“You think that I will drive all the way to your house in the middle of the night just to crack jokes with you. You are right in some aspect, the sanctuary can't burn down with just natural flames unless it is one with the power of the flames”Jason explained as Kelvin thought about it for a while and could not seem to comprehend what it meant.“Look here Jason, I
Jason opened his eyes as he felt his head banging with pain. He hasn't been without his powers for a long time now and without it, he felt so weak that it was killing him.His eyes trail around the basement as he realizes that he is all alone in there. All members of the Smith family were gone, and with his head pounding with pain, he raised his arm to touch his head and realized that there were traces of blood,d, which was the source of the pain.Jason exhaled softly before he sat upright, filled with regret as to how he had let his guard down. Just while he was still trying to get a grasp of himself, he stared at his phone and realized there were ten missed calls and fifteen messages from his right-hand man.“Fuck!” he cursed, rising to his feet, and despite how weak and sour he felt from the pain and beating he had received, he still hurried away from the apartment.He got into his car and sped off, arriving at the scene where all the men had been lined up and waiting for his arriv
First, they were reluctant to accept the food as they had no idea what sick games he was trying to play. Mrs. Smith stretched out her arm to grab one of the meals that was carefully packaged in a takeout, but her husband immediately stopped her before turning his attention to Jason. “Mr. Jason, why have you brought us this food, is that the way you want to have us killed?” Mr. Smith asked but Jason chuckled so loud that one would think there was not a hint of danger around him. “Poison you, I mean that is an insult to me, if I want you dead, there are just several ways that I would do it and I might not even have to lift a finger, why would I go through the stress of having you poisoned” He explained and knowing how powerful he was, they thought that he was right. “If that is not the case, then why have you brought food to my family when I know that you are going to end up killing us after these” Mr. Smith asked, and this time, Jason, who seemed to be losing his patience, f
Jason was filled with rage when he arrived at the sanctuary; so many members had all burned down, and those who had survived were barely recognized, not to mention the items they had lost.“Boss! What are we going to do now?” His right-hand man, who had called him on the phone when all of this started, asked.“Where were you when the fire started and why couldn't you put it off with your powers?” Jason scolded, he was so angry that he badly needed someone he was going to take out his anger on.“I am sorry Boss, I tried my best, but the fire was no ordinary one, it was Adrian's flame, and no matter what I did, it wouldn't stop instead it just kept getting worse”He explained. Jason's face had turned red, with bulging veins from his forehead like twisted ropes; his eyes were blazing with fury that his right-hand man had to drift backward for fear of what he might do to him.“Adrian….” He groans with his fist clenched. “You have done so much, and I think that it's time to get my revenge;
The entire family was silent for a long while like they were expecting Kelly to do the talking. Tears trickled down her cheek while she thought of what to say and yet she could not think of any.“Kelly! You heard what my uncle just asked you and we really would like to know, how can we be certain that you are not lying to us and this is not part of some sort of sick game from Jason which you are just involved in?”Adrian went ahead to imply with Avery still seated next to him.“I don't know how else I can prove myself to you all, better still, you can send someone to go and check on the Smith family, you will find them locked up in the basement and then you will realize that what I am saying is the truth”She assured them, this time, there was a hint of combination in their face as they thought about it and the possibility that it might indeed be true.“Adrian, what do you think?” Grandpa Hallow sought his opinion, but after the conversation that he had earlier today with Klein, Adria
The car came to a halt right at the parking lot of the Wesley estate, with Adrian hurrying inside. In the living room were Grandpa Hallow, Daniel, Uncle Sean, Uncle Theo, Aunt Amelia, Claire, Sarah, and Freya. Avery stood at the door; she had always been finding it difficult to get along with the family and thought that she should take it slowly.There was the visitor whom Avery had spoken about on the phone, which was Kelly. Kelly sat on the single couch; she looked unkempt, her hair disheveled, and Adrian could barely recognize her as he walked in.“Kelly?” he asked, his eyes scanning around her, yet he did not forget to give Avery a gentle kiss before he turned to Kelly.‘Kelly, is that you?” he asked again; it was so hard for him to believe that this was truly her and how possible she had lost so much weight. Kelly lowered her head with a shy smile; she knew that she wasn't at her best, which only made her more embarrassed that she couldn't look him in the face.“How have you been
.Adrian stormed the sanctuary alongside thousands of soldiers and police. He stood outside with Klein standing next to him as he watched them burn the place down; although there were several members inside, he didn't care; he wanted them burned alongside the building.“After this, what next?” Klein asked, seeing the fury that swept through his face. He had never seen his boss this angry, and he knew that after the encounter with the dark master, something had changed within him.“I am going to find every other member left and I am going to have them killed, they hurt my family too much and I will be a fool to let them get away with it and I am going to be starting with Kelvin who seems to be on the run”“What about Jason? You do know that he is still alive, right?” asked, his face glued to Adrian like he was trying to take in all of his emotions.“I took away all of Jason's powers, he won't be able to do much now” There was shock on Klein's face for a breath moment before he asked;“
Finn, alongside the rest of his family, could feel their throat dry; Kelly could clearly hear the heartbeat of the others, and given how hungry she was, if she had the opportunity, she was ready to eat them alive.After Jason had left, he wanted to kill Kelly, but given how much Finn had pleaded with him, he finally decided to punish the entire family by locking them up in the basement of their apartment with no food or drink, and no matter how much they screamed, no one would be able to hear them.And as a result of that, the family blamed Finn for bringing Kelly into their home.“There were other girls from other wealthy families that you could have met with and taken our family from this burden that has been resting on our head, instead you chose a girl like her who has come to ruin her”“Come on Mom, don't put the blame on her, it is not her fault, you were the one who insisted that Dad worked with Jason even when Adrian was ready to help us for no cause”Finn sighed, he was getti
Adrian, along with Avery and Klein, all rose to their feet as they watched the men storm out of there. First they were afraid as they had no idea what other crimes they might have committed until Mr. Daniel alongside his daughter and Mr. Woods stormed out of the car.“DADDY!” Avery yelled at the top of her voice as she rushed over to him, she had never been this happy to see him like this before. She wrapped her arms tightly around his neck and tears filled her eyes.“Daddy…. I was so scared, I never thought that I would ever get to see you again”“Me too. When I heard about what was happening, I blamed myself for neglecting you, if something had happened to you, trust me when I say that I wouldn't have been able to live with myself”The older man could not hold back the tears that formed in his eyes as he embraced his daughter with a heavy heart. Daniel and Freya stood before Adrian, their eyes scanning around him with so many questions in their heart as they were reluctant to engage
