“Wait, before you leave, I want you to take me to Mr. Reeves. I need to see him at the morgue.” Darren stared into their eyes. Leo and Hector glanced at each other for a few seconds before they responded.“That’s okay, but you need to use the fake face. You can’t go to the hospital, Tate; that would be too risky.” Hector said, and Darren agreed as he followed them from behind while they headed to their rides.Darren got into the car with Hector as he wore the dark shade while they headed to where they could purchase a facemask that seemed more like a real face.They purchased the perfect one for him that seemed to make him younger than his age, which was a great disguise for him.Then they began to drive towards the hospital. The hospital belonged to Mr. Reeves, and now he has given everything to Darren.Hector asked the driver to halt when they drove to the side where Mr. Reeves was exactly shot dead."This is where he was killed.” Hector told him as he took down the side of his wind
Darren followed the blonde-haired lady as she took him to the room around the housekeeper's quarters. Darren's eyes widened at how huge the villa was and the fact that the interior design was the kind he had never seen before.While he marveled at the villa, his mind was not at rest after the lady told him about the party that they were going to have in a few days.She stopped in front of the white door and twisted the door knob to push it open."This is where you would be staying. Ah. I forgot; I am Nora, the only daughter of the Reeves family, and in a few hours I will assign you to your duties.” She said it with a small smile and walked out of the room as she slammed the door closed, leaving Darren alone in the room.Darren sighed as he moved closer to the door to peep. He wanted to confirm if she was gone before he answered the beeping of his cell phone in his pocket.Leo and Hector have been calling him for the past thirty minutes, apparently since he got here.Leo was the one ca
It has been a few days since Darren started working for the family and finally the day of the party. He looked at himself through the mirror and sighed, adjusting his clothes. Hoping he wouldn’t cause a scene, and he would be able to get through it smoothly, he walked out of his room, his steps suddenly came to a halt when he saw Nora, who flared her nose and moved closer to him. “No mistake, grandma loves perfection, and you should be able to deliver that, we are not paying you a huge amount of money to mess up.” “I have heard you.” he replied curtly and walked away from her. He went inside the grand hall and was shocked at the massive number of people who had come for the party. The smile on their faces and how they chatted did nothing but anger him, wondering how no one cared about Mr. Reeve's death, not even his family. His hands were fisted beside him as he swore to exact his revenge and get to the root of the matter. “Is that your job?” he suddenly heard the voice of grandm
Darren stared at Grandma, even though he was boiling inside, he knew better than to cause a more deadly scene. He smiled and bent his head “I am sorry for the trouble I have caused you,” Darren pled and turned, walking away from the party. He stepped out of the hall, and he was slapped by cool air, his anger had faded, and he slowly rubbed his cheek, he knew he had to calm down and not let a slap like that get to him. He suddenly heard an echoing footstep that caused him to tilt his head, he saw Nora, and he gently bowed before her. “Grandma must have been in a good mood if she didn’t fire you,” Nora said and Darren was quiet, he didn’t know what to say, and he didn’t want to say anything that might lead to more complications for him. “You are not supposed to stand outside, you're being paid for your work so step back in and do what is necessary.” Nora added, this time around her voice stricter. Darren watched her walk back to the hall, but he wasn’t ready to go back in yet, so h
Nora stood up from the floor and moved closer to Darren, she raised her hand and landed a heavy slap on his face, Darren’s widened a bit as he was shocked by the sudden response of Nora to what he had said “Nora!” Grandma Lisa yelled, and she was busy fuming, Nora was beyond angry, and she wanted to tear Darren apart. Just when she thought they were going to fight against Grandma Lisa's ridiculous request he went ahead and accepted putting her in a terrible situation. She had never imagined herself getting married to a cleaner, she had always wanted a business tycoon that would be able to raise her standard more than it is now, and Darren is about to destroy all her plans. She squeezed her eyes shut as she regretted doing this with Eric, she shouldn’t have said yes to his plans, and now she is the one getting the backlash of it all. “How can you do that, Nora? You have to start respecting your soon-to-be husband!” Grandma Lisa spag and Nora’s eyes were clouded with hot tears. H

“This is so unfair!” Nora cried out over the phone. “You didn’t tell us it’s that serious, how can grandma get you engaged with him without informing us first, as your brothers we ought to be there!” Richard responded and Nora could feel how angry he was through the phone. “It’s not too late to stop this, you can come talk to grandma for me, I will be so happy if you can do that for me.” Nora responded. Greg, who had been quiet since the beginning of the call, let out a deep breath. “I am going to clear my schedules because of you, Richard, and I will be in the mansion soon.” Greg replied, and the call came to an end. Nora wiped her tears away, and she sniffed, trying to control her emotions. Her last hope was her brothers and she seriously hoped they could talk to Grandma Lisa and this engagement would become void since no one knew about it yet. She spent the next thirty minutes busy pacing about in her room, waiting for her brothers to come over. She sighed multiple times and
Darren let out a sigh as he adjusted his suit in front of the enormous mirror in his room. “I got this!” he muttered to himself and stepped out of his room, he met Hector standing at the doorway. Hector’s face fell immediately he glanced at Darren, knowing it was the final goodbye to Mr. Reeves. “I can’t believe Mr. Reeves is really dead.” Hector muttered in his sad tone and Darren placed his hand on his shoulder. “Don’t worry, everyone involved in his death will surely be put to justice. I will make sure I find them and hunt them down.” he murmured through gritted teeth and walked away from Hector, he suddenly halted his steps and tilted his head to look at Hector again as though he had something to tell him.“You know what to do at the burial, make sure you listen to everyone’s conversation and gather as much information as you can. I need your eyes everywhere and don’t come close to me, no one should know we know each other, okay?” Darren ordered and Hector nodded with a slight b
