Even though Freya had arrived at the scene, it did not stop Mrs. Smith from speaking so loudly against Adrian, it felt like she wanted Freya who just arrived at the scene to comprehend what was going on. “You worthless human, after everything that I did for you, this is how you pay me and now you have the gut to step your foot into the Wesley estate, what for, so that you can you can inflict them with your bad luck the same way that you tried to ruin my family, I am never going to let that happen, not under my watch!” “And I am saying this to you that is enough else I am going to be forced to ask you to leave here” “Are you being delusional, who are you to think that you can ask me to leave, rather it is you who does not deserve to be here and will have to leave right now” Mrs. Smith was becoming more and more furious that it was so difficult for her to endure it, she raised her hand to smack him, but Adrian immediately stopped her before it got to his face. This only made Freya mo
Mr. Daniel and his daughter Freya were extremely shocked by the woman’s behavior as they both stared at each other in utmost dismay, Daniel couldn't recall the last time that he met a woman that was this foolish. But Adrian on the other hand was not angry about the things that he said because she was used to it, what he was more angry at was the fact that she dared slander him in front of his family whom he hadn't seen in years, and as he stood there watching her belittle him, he could recall those times when she would tell his teachers and classmates at school that he was a bad kid and that gave him a bad impression at school. “Mother shut up! Haven't you had enough, isn't it enough that you chased me out of your home in the middle of the night?” Adrian roared at the top of his voice, and just then, he could hear another voice that simultaneously yelled out the same time as he did and Mrs. Smith was indeed surprised by this sudden reaction. “Shut up! How dare you, you know I was so
Kelvin seeing that Sarah was down and in a bad mood after being scolded by the family decided to take her outside on a walk hoping that would calm her down and she would finally lighten her mood.But even as they walked around the large estate, Sarah still had a deep frown on her face while she went ahead to complain. “I can't believe that Uncle Daniel and Freya would be so biased for Adrian who they just met over you, how could they expect you to give up your room which you have used for years over some smelly guy from the trash, who is so unfair and I am so angry at the way that they treat you over you”“It is fine Sarah, I don't mind being treated unfairly and besides he is the son and the heir to the corporation, what do you expect?” Kelvin responded with a smile on his face, but beneath that smile, there was a hint of resentment in his eyes.“I do not approve of him becoming the heir to the corporation, you have worked so hard for years and sacrificed everything for this family,
Adrian on the other hand, despite the humiliation that he was receiving, did not seem like he was going to give up any moment from now. He took a few steps closer to Mrs. Sophia before he continued.“Ma, you seemed to have stolen the fortune of the Wesley family!” Adrian announced coldly as the entire members of the family immediately turned their gaze at Sophia. She was no doubt stunned at this brutal accusation against her, she lifted her hand and was almost on her knees.“Please young master, I do not know why you would label such an accusation against me, but I have never stolen anything from Wesley since I started working here. Everyone in this mansion has been so good to me, why would I go as far as trying to ruin that relationship? Please you all need to believe me, I haven't taken anything”She pleaded, but the family did not seem to have believed her. Except for Sarah who got angry at this accusation and quickly stood up for her.“I can't believe that you all will choose to b
Sarah immediately stepped in, interrupting the entire interrogation again. “ I still do not think that such an enigmatic stone is capable of stealing our fortune!”“Step aside Sarah, because right now, no one cares about what you think!” Freya immediately interrupted her before she could say her next words and then Daniel's voice came through.“Mr. White!” He called on the butler who immediately scurried forward. “Apprehend her and have her lock her, for the rest of you, I need you all in the living room so we can discuss this issue with Grandpa!”He ordered and started walking away side by side with Adrian. Once the entire family was seated in the living room there was a tense air in the living room, because most of the Wesley family did not have an idea of such a thing and to them, it felt bizarre.they carefully explained the entire event to Grandpa Hallow who was indeed astonished by Adrian's knowledge of things like this.“Adrian I must say that this is truly impressive, how in
There was an intense silence in the living room for a while as Grandpa HHallow kept staring into a blank space and after a while, he turned his attention to Adrian “Adrian, since you are informed about mysterious things like this, what do you think that we should do?”Grandpa asked after a while of staring into blank space. “Just like I previously explained to Father and the others, we are going to need to perform a ritual to retrieve the fortune of the Wesley family and then destroy the demon statues and I will need a hundred dollars to acquire the necessary items needed”“What do you think will happen to Tommy’s daughter once the ritual is done, I feel like if they get an idea about the source of their daughter’s intellectual impairment, it is going to cause a thrift between both families and as such, we need to seek a solution as soon as possible”“I can't assure you that everything is going to return in an instant since it has been a while. But with time, it is going to take a whi
A deep frown spread through Sarah's face as she clutched tightly onto Kelvin. “Kelvin here isn't complaining and besides I am not ready to sleep now so why should you force it up on me, I am no longer your child”“And as long as I am your older sister, you are a child!” Claire rebuked, no doubt that she was trying to tease her, and she was doing a good job at it until their father decided to intervene.“That is enough Claire, let her be and if she feels like going to bed, she will, let her have some time with her brother” Theo suggested before he finally rose to his feet and started scurrying towards his room as the rest of the family that were all exhausted did the same.Once Sarah and Kelvin were in the room, Sarah fell to the bed and she let out a frustrating groan. “I can't believe that everyone is starting to believe the trash coming out from his mouth, did you see the way Grandpa was seeking his opinion, he never does that with you despite all the efforts that you put into the c
The next day, Theo is getting ready for work when a knock comes through his door as his two daughters step in, Sarah stands next to him while Claire finds her way to the couch and picks up the magazine there. She fixed her eyes on the magazine and was clearly going to let Sarah do all of the talking.“Dad, are you guys holding up a board meeting at the office today?”“Not really, Adrian is just going to be introduced to everyone at the company which includes the board, but it is not like anything else is going to take place”“But you still need to vote before he can be approved as the next in line for the position of the president right?”“Yes, but why are you suddenly interested in what is going on at the company?”“That is because I do not want Adrian to take over.”“You should stop that Sarah, Adrian is your brother, and more than anyone else, you should be rooting for him”“I can't! And that is because I do not consider him as my brother. Kelvin has been there for me much more tim
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
