All eyes turned to Brandon who strode in with his shoulder high and his hands into his pockets, his cousin Elliott trailing after him, Brandon's gaze landed on Adam, and he stomped forward, taking his hands out of his pocket, he grabbed Adam by his shoulders, shoving him away,

“What the hell do you think you're doing? Get away from my sister you murderer!!!"

Brandon howled at the top of his voice, scowling at Adam with disdain,

"Haven't you done enough damage already you poor and wretched disgusting bastard!”

Elliot stood behind him, shifting on one foot to the other, a little uneasy as he had seen Adam in action, and knew what the man was capable of, he had only tagged along just to enter into his uncle's good graces once more and nothing else, he had no love lost for the cousin who had nearly left him to die.

Taking a peek at her body, he shuddered and felt a sudden urge to regurgitate the meal he had consumed before coming in; he blinked as he looked at her lain form, surely that

    As the words escaped his lips, Brandon flung himself at Adam, ready to pounce on him like a lion to his prey, but Adam wasn't having any of it, as he equally stood firmly on the ground, and decked Brandon with his elbow, and like a measly paper, Brandon fell to the ground clutching his chin while simultaneously crying out loud,“You bastard!!! I'll kill you!!!! You've succeeded in killing my sister and yet you want to kill the remaining Rowland heir!!! You're.going.to.pay.for.this!”Brandon seethed and bowed through gritted teeth, his eyes shooting venom and daggers at Adam who only rolled his eyes and bent to Brandon's level,“Your sister isn't dead, you may wish for her to be dead, but she's a fighter and she'll come through! I can barely say the same about you!”The words angered Brandon the more and he flared and tried to shove Adam by the shoulder, but he was as solid as a boulder, unmoving. Adam's words had hit home and the nail on the head, despite the love Brandon had for his

    Meanwhile, back at the Winston's residence, Mira had managed to get her mother into the house despite the woman's constant nagging,“How dare you invite that lowlife scumbag into any event of ours! How dare you insult me in that manner you ungrateful child!"Madam Ruth went on in her chastisement, leaving no room for Mira to defend herself,“You're nothing but a disgrace to me! You don't act like my child and sometimes I find myself wondering if you were switched at birth or if you hit your head when you were a baby!"Her words tore at her daughter's heart, but she was far gone in her attack to realise the effect it had on her daughter Mira,“There are men like Brendan Castro or even Russell Brent, who will gladly bow at your feet and give you the world, yet you won't invite them, you rather choose to invite a lowlife classless idiot into a gathering filled with dignitaries! You wound me, Mira!”“You didn't see men like the grandson of Marcus Raine to invite, but choose to rather inv

She cried out in pain, and Mira felt pity for her and rubbed her hands over her mother while nodding at the doctor,“It's ok Mum, the doctor has arrived, hell attend to you now"Madam Ruth immediately sat up on the bed as she heard Mira's words, a smile lighting her face up, her miracle doctor had arrived.Dr Emmanuel Weiss with the gleam still in his eyes strode to her and stretched his hand to her, “Madam, do not fret, you'll be well in no time. We just have to run some tests to know what the problem is so we can begin treatment!”"Then get it done! There's no time to waste!"Madam Ruth spoke rudely, and Mira lifted her head to send a remorseful look to the doctor on her mother's behalf, the doctor only smiled and gave a brief nod, before stepping out to prepare

    Adam soon arrived at the hospital per Mira's request, leaving a still weak and reluctant Amber behind, he had only chosen to come out of respect for Mira and nothing else, it was obvious her mother didn't need his help, and he was fine with that.As soon as he crossed the threshold of Madam Ruth's room, she flared up and threw a shoe at the door, in reflex Adam ducked,“Get the hell out of my room you pauper!!! Your presence isn't needed here!”“Mother!!!"Her daughter chastised loudly while sending a look of remorse and apology to Adam on her mother's behalf,“I'm sorry about that Adam"He barely managed a nod in response, his eyes on the woman who was shooting daggers with hers, and sending him the worst of all venoms with her look. Adam could tell that she was getting worse, and probably at death's door, but Madam Ruth's arrogance had blinded her to that reality. With a gleam in his eyes, Adam tilted his head to the side to stare at the aggravating woman, and with a clear voice, h

    Wanting to belittle Adam while their gazes were still steady on each other, she looked at the amazing Doctor Stone with a hand over her chest and smiled broadly before she asked Austin,“Dr Stone should be a very busy and highly respected doctor, how did you get him to come on such short notice?" Looking at the doctor, she could tell he was highly decorated and skilled, and she smiled deeper knowing Austin who had arranged it all was to be her son in law in no time, Austin feeling proud of himself, waved his hand dismissively,“Oh, there's nothing having money and the right connection cannot achieve. You should know how much weight my family name carries, The Parker family are no small people” he boasted and Madam Ruth nodded her head in agreement,The Parker family were indeed one of the top five richest and most influential families in their country, although they ranked the least, they were still formidable and strong, but not as strong as the ultimate family, known as The Raine'

    Startled by their various looks of worry and horror, Madam Ruth sat upright and looked at her daughter as she demanded to know what was happening,“Why are you attacking the good doctor Mira?! Unhand him this minute" Mira hardly spared her mother a glance as she continued holding on to the doctor, Madam Ruth blinked her eyes repeatedly mad hitched her breath, her chest once again feeling funny,Still looking at Mira holding the doctor, she tried to adjust herself on the bed but found out that she couldn't move, ignoring the strange movement in her chest, she once more tried to dispel Mira from the doctor,“Leave the doctor alone Mira!" Her eyebrows scrunched together and she blinked rapidly again,“Why are there two of you Mira? And even two of the doctor?" She wheezed, Hearing that, Mira inhaled sharply and ran to her mother abandoning the doctor who looked clueless and out of place. Sitting beside her mother, Mira looked her over with bulging eyes and a curious gaze,“Aren't you fe

    Adam really hadn't gone far as he was still in the hospital, knowing fully well that the doctor's attempt would be futile, and he lagged behind to see their reaction to his failure after they had made so much boast. He had come in contact with one of his grandfather's who knew of his true identity and the two were exchanging pleasantries. Sir Thomas French family was the third most influential and powerful family in the country, and his family were close friends with the Raine's family,“Adam, what brings you by the hospital, hope Marcus is well?", he inquired with a perplexed look, and Adam nodded his head reassuringly, of which Sir Thomas nodded as well, and then leaned forward with a small smile on his face, “I'm glad I ran into you, I've been meaning to discuss business dealings with you. Do you think we can talk here?”Before Adam could respond, he could hear someone call out his name urgently from a distance, and the duo turned to the direction of the voice, only to find a nea

As his eyes rested on the strange man, he blinked rapidly, "W-who are y-you?” he questioned while staring intently at the man, "For now, that's not important. You'll get to know me in time, but right now, we need to leave this shack! Your life is in danger!” The strange man muttered, his eyes darting between the shack and the door. Hearing the urgency in the man's voice, chills crept down Jason's frail body, and he gulped, returning his gaze to the man, he blinked once more, "W-what do you m-mean? I'm safe here, nobody will ever think to f-find me in a shack” The strange man scoffed, and shook his head, “Boy, if only you knew”, was his curt response, and as Jason watched him, he struggled to sit up against the bare and flat mattress that lay on the floor.

    Adam was back in the basement, and he walked straight to the den of the old man, with Raul trailing behind him. He walked into the den and met the Old Man and Sage Robinson already sitting and waiting for him. They had heard the news and were waiting to congratulate him. “The man of the moment,” Dreymond called out from the corner where he was seated and Adam turned to see him and Amber seated together. Adam had not seen Amber since the other day at the coast brother’s basement and he was glad that she was recuperating. Old man Thompson stood up and walked towards Adam as they both approached each other. The old man saw the passion in his eyes and stopped. He tapped him on the shoulder and nodded his head, and everyone in the room had to do the same. That was the brotherhood way of celebration, “Weldon Adam,” The old man said and patted him on both sides of his shoulder. He was in prison with Adam, and he knew how he had fought for this moment, and he was very proud to be part of

    After Adam had dropped her off, Leila walked into their home with sweaty palms, occasionally biting at her lips,She tried to keep her cool and not let her nerves get the best of her. She had already told Joan that she would be back just in time for their dad's arrival, and now, she had probably missed that. She walked into the living room gently, trying to be as silent as possible, hoping not to bump into either Joan or her father she tried to sneak in but she faltered in her steps with popping eyes to discover both of them in the sitting room discussing,“Leila.” Her dad called out gently as she walked in, with her gaze lowered and her fingers crossed at her back,“Come here, princess.” Her father said, spreading out his arms to receive her in for a hug. “I am sorry I was not here to welcome you, papa.” She whispered tearfully as she hugged her father tightly,“I know I have disappointed you; please forgive me, papa.” She said as she continued to let it rain with her tears.“I am

    Seeing the expression on Mira's face, her mother quickly ran towards her and immediately grabbed the phone out of her hand, glancing at Adam before glancing at the phone, and as she did, her hands began shaking and her eyes popped out, also gasping like her daughter, “W-what. Un-unbelievable, Im-po-ssible” she kept stuttering and looking dazedly at Adam, Mira gaped at her empty hand, and back at Adam, her mouth agape. She swallowed and looked at him, “Fifty million euros, Adam?" As soon as she revealed the amount, everyone around gasped and turned their gaze at Adam, whose cheeks were turning slightly red; he nodded subtly at Mira while Leila stood staring at him unabashedly, grinning from ear to ear. Still smiling a little, Adam informed a still-stunned Mira, “One of my men will reach out to you, I'd like for you to head one of my companies. You were instrumental in my daughter's well-being as well as meeting a great woman" he cast a glance at Leila and she blushed. Madam Ruth

    Once again Madam Ruth burst into a loud laughter, clutching her stomach as she did. Every other person watched as she laughed, Mira on the other hand gaped at Adam, unable to string any words together,A part of her was certain the reveal was true as there was something about Adam that was quite different and he didn't seem like a pauper the way her mother had made him out to be.Leila's eyes darted at Adam, and she tried holding their gaze to confirm it, but Adam wasn't looking at her; his face was almost blank, sans the little smirk she caught on his face. She found herself wondering if whatever he had to reveal was in line with what had just been revealed.Madam Ruth once again cut short her laughter and spluttered, glancing at the manager as she spoke in a disbelieving voice,“Are you blind or what? Or perhaps you hit your head on the way here," she deduced mockingly, and the man sneered at her, refraining from deeming her with a reply.The man, alongside others, ignored her, as A

    “What do you mean by that?!" Leila asked, nearly shrieking as she stared at him, and in return, Adam nodded,Leila continued to gape at him, she was a mix of confusion and shock at what Adam had said, even if he hadn't elaborated on it,“W-what do you mean, Adam?" She questioned, focusing her gaze on him, Adam sighed and expelled a breath simultaneously, sitting upright on his seat, he opened his mouth to respond,“I'm the lost heir of Mar…”Before he could continue, a loud voice broke through his response, and the voice was oddly familiar,"What do you mean my payment didn't go through?! Who the bloody hell are you?! Do you even know who I am?!” The voice thundered, flying out of her seat to land a hot unexpected slap on the stunned waiter’s face,“Mother!!!" her daughter chided beside her and she turned to glare at her,“If you can't defend your mother, then stay out of my way!" Adam turned towards the direction and wasn't surprised to see a snarling Ruth with a downcast Mira stand

    “Are you shocked?” Adam asked Cecil as he slowly and gently began to walk closer to her. Cecil, who was now filled with fear, could only stare at Adam, at that moment, Stefan’s words began to ring in her head. ‘That man is dangerous, very very dangerous.’ She reminisced and her eyes of their own accord began to water, as she subtly shook her head from side to side, retracting her steps as Adam advanced further,He paused in his steps and turned to face the uniformed men,“These are the culprits" he informed the waiting women who glared at Cecil with death in their eyes, causing her to shiver,“They are the ones who framed me for rape.” Adam continued, pointing to William, Louisa and her mother. Cecil was speechless as she gaped with an open mouth; she couldn't believe Adam had found out about that; they had contacted a very highly profiled criminal to carry out the foul play, and she had been certain there was no way Adam would be able to get his hands on that lady.“What sort of ac
