The Forrest family put all their hope on the Mayor after he agreed to help them, they had been hoping and praying for the news that would enrapture their soul, a news ' like the Brighton Group had been sued by the government for drug smuggling or other sort of high crimes that's enough to demolish the image of any company. It was a new week, on a Monday morning and all the members of the Forrest family were having breakfast together, it was a working day so everyone were preparing after having breakfast they would set to leave the villa to their various offices in their workplace. Ashley however did not sleep back at her place, she and her assistant Carmen slept over at the villa when Ashley decided to visit last night. On the dining table, she began felt feverish, she felt a tap rushing through her larynx like she wants to vomit. " Ashley are you alright? " Bothered, Donald Rans asked. He was regarded a part of the family due to his consistency and support for the family, even at
Ashley was sitting in her bedroom filled with so much thoughts. She sat on her bed and busy staring at a picture on her phone. Surprisingly it was a picture of her and David together. When she heard some noise in the house, she immediately took her phone off from the gallery. Why was she nervous, the only person living in her house currently was Carmen her assistant and Carmen cannot enter her bedroom with knocking. She was however expecting Alexander Wilson, his ways, he could just barge inside her bedroom without telling her. But however, why does she still have pictures of David on her phone when they are no longer together? The minute David left her house on a Rolls-Royce, she became very restless and confused. "Was he really the owner of that car? I thought he was broke. " She muttered seriously in her head. Just then, she was quaked by the loud noise of a blaring jeep outside her house. "Ms. Ashley, your fiancee, Mr. Alexander Wilson is here! " Carmen from outside her room
David blamed himself, he believed if he was around his father would not have died. He had a feeling someone had a hand in what happened to his father. However things took a new turn as David said, " Tell Lana that I'm coming home first thing tomorrow morning. " He made his decision and his sister, Anna was very delighted to hear that. "Thank you elder brother. " She said. .. David immediately after contacting his sister, he dialed another phone. "Peter.. " "Yes Boss! " The receiver answered from the other end, with respect. "I want you to get prepared my flight tickets, am traveling to the capital city tomorrow morning! " David said with a commanding voice. "Boss, what about your private jets? " "I'd prefer to arrive the city on a airplane instead, I want to travel on a first class, do it. " "Okay boss, your flight ticket would be ready first thing tomorrow morning. " Peter said and after David ended the call. "My father's dead, I have to leave everything behind and return
David recently browse on his phone where he saw his cousin Jasper, he thought people believed Jasper was him but he was astounded. "How can Jasper be the heir of my father, are they not aware that I'm back? " David mumbled inside. He became terrified that he's about to get rob off his right and inheritance. But however, it did not end there, a vibrant old man wearing a blue regalia stood from his seat and objected the claim of the elderly man. Surprisingly it was Sir Frederick Chadwick, the grand patriarch of the Chadwick family. David was happy someone has stood to counter the proclamation of the elderly man. Every eyes darted to Sir Chadwick with great fear because of his terrifying personality. "No Elder Amell, that's wrong, we are still mourning the great lord of the Table who just lost his life yesterday in a tragic accident, why would you think of crowning a new lord at this distending time, that's so despicable of you? " He said. The elderly man is one of the kingmakers
David sighed. After the meeting on the Table, he returned to the hotel where he lodged. He was consistently trying to contact the phone of his two sisters but to no avail. When he tried to contact them again, their phones finally switched off. At this moment David was tensed up, he did not know what to do. He was very worried and also afraid, wondering where his sisters could be. He groaned with a clutched fist as he was becoming devastated already. "Jasper said he had not seen them since he returned, was he telling the truth? Up till now they are not picking my calls, hope they are alright? " David mumbled, thrusting his fingers through his curly hair, stuffed with an aura of perplexity on his face. The fact that his two beautiful sisters are no where to be found just after the death of his father left him in pieces. He could not eat or drink water because of it. Then suddenly, he remember what his sister Anna said to him over the phone on that particular day of the incident.
David jumped from his bed, sleep disappeared at once from his face. "Hunter, did you know who is responsible for this? " Hunter sighs; "No Young Master, unfortunately, but I was able to see the face of two of the masked men that ambushed us that day. I remember when they thought we were all dead, they all gladly removed their masked where they smirk at our dead bodies, which of the most your father's body." He said. "Harrhg!! Those scoundrels!! They would pay for this, I swear! " David growled, biting his lips. "And Young Master, I heard the news that you have arrived at the castle, I'm worried at this moment because your life might also be in danger. " "I have returned to Sterling city, but I have not publicly returned to the castle Hunter. It was my cousin Jasper who recently returned from the U.S. and people thought he was me. No one knows that I'm in the city. " "Jasper Ace.. " Hunter was quiet for some few seconds. ".. " "However Young Master, your decision to go into secl
A male figure stood before them stopping them from going to the truck. "Let her go! " The person uttered fearlessly with a voice of command. The first thing that escaped from their lips was a demeaning laugher. "Punk, who are you? Do you have a death wish, fuck off from here!! " The leader of the gang growled. It was David, he flew his hands from his jean pockets and fold it to a powerful fist. He was not going to watch these gang rape a lady right before his face. He furrowed at the three; " I'll not repeat myself, let go of the lady. " The gang were astonished by the guts from David, although he was muscular but he did not look very fearful. They started giggling like they have already been in this kind of situation before. "Alright since you prefer the hard way, Aaron help me take out this fool trying to form Jason Bourne. " Pissed already the leader of the gang sent one of his guys to take on David. David smiled, "We can settle this amicably, we don't have to fight you know.
David looked down to his pocket and saw a white card, firstly he thought the card was his until he saw the name Alesha Chadwick boldly written with gold color on the surface of the card."Alesha Chadwick? " He was dumbstrucked as he wasn't expecting the surname. He believed the card belongs to the pretty lady that just left but he refused to believe she is the daughter of the man that first came to his mind. Of course there's no way anyone would want to mess with Sir. Chadwick's daughter. Anyone who does that would be actually calling for his death. And however what helped him wave the thought away was when he reasoned, "what would the daughter of the Chadwick's family be doing in a bar all alone and in an unsafe place like this! " ..David believed there could be more to the card than just the name written on it so he turns to the back of the card to find other details. And there it was, her phone number and home address all written in style. Typically, the card was her business ca
