As he turned to head for the staircase, Connor stopped him.“We need to talk, Kelvin. It's about the recent development in the family. I'm not happy that your parents are divorced, it's very terrible news for me to take. But still, there's nothing I can do to change that." He said, and Kelvin paused and returned to the sofa. “Everything already, grams?”"You talk as if there's something I should know that I don't know yet." He said, and Connor paused. He smacked his lips and exhaled deeply.“You're the strength of this family, son. Always remember that. Mind you, there are lots of things you don't know, and I wish I could tell you, but it's not that simple. I only hope that you won't get to find out. Just focus on maintaining a good legacy for our family, that's all, son.”Hearing those words,

“What happened?" Becca asked, rushing into the hospital, while Kelvin was in a hot argument with Katherine.“Mom, have you been able to reach Katherine?"

His eyes darkened with uncontrollable rage as he turned around.Becca was confused at the moment, everything seemed to be happening too fast. She furrowed her brow searching for clarity over the fog that had settled in her thoughts.“What exactly happened? I didn't seem to get what you were saying on the phone. You said something about a phone call," she said to Kelvin, and he exhaled deeply. Immediately, the nurses came out of the hospital room and walked past Kelvin without a word. Kelvin and Becca exchanged gazes, their expression a clear sign that a shred of confusion had engulfed them. Kelvin furrow

“No, that cannot be. It cannot happen at all, I refuse to believe." Uncle Theo yelled, his eyes turned red, showing that he feared that Kelvin's words might be true, but he wouldn't believe it.Kelvin sighed and stood up from his seat. As he walked towards the exit, he stopped and turned around facing his mother.“Remember what I told you today, whatever has befallen Pamela, Frank is involved. I'm telling you this so when you see him again if you ever will, then you must take legal action against him.”“To do that, we need to find evidence of his conspiracy and plot against Pamela or the family. Somehow, I know that there is a piece of evidence somewhere, we just need to find it. And as for you, Mom, stay away from Mark and General Orlando.” Kelvin said abruptly and walked out of the house. Hearing those words, Gregory turned facing Becca, he furrowed his brows, a puzzled look crossing his face as he tried to make sense of those words.“What's that?" He asked, and Becca glared at him

“Come on, come on, Kelvin pick up, Please," Katherine muttered. It was past 6 pm, and she had closed work for the day. She decided to try Kelvin's number one more time before leaving the office, but still nothing had changed. The squeaking sound from the door caught her attention, and she put down the phone. Nancy walked into the office with a beaming smile on her face, and Katherine sighed.Nancy was the epitome of beauty. She was tall and curvy, with long black hair cascading behind her back. She had a contagious smile that exposed her sparkling white teeth. “Are you free?" She asked, staring at Katherine who furrowed her brow confusedly.“What?"“What do you mean by "what?” Are you free tonight? I'd like to hang out with you. You're always working, it makes me wonder if you have enough time for yourself. Let me take care of you tonight, it'll be fun trust me.” She said and Katherine sighed.Her shock was obvious, looking into her eyes. You could tell she was struggling to compre

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly, its rays casting a great warmth and washing off the coldness from the previous night. Kelvin had returned to Boston, and with him was Frank who was still in a coma. The Woodluck mansion experienced a great silence that morning, as the family gathered for a meeting after seeing the level of injury inflicted on Frank. The fear and tension were evident on their faces, including Kelvin's. Pamela's whereabouts were becoming clearer with each passing day. “What could've happened that day? And why would Frank order the security men to stay back and not follow? What could have happened to my daughter?” Theophilus asked theoretically. His voice echoed his great pain and agony. There was a short silence, as nobody had an answer to his question. Kelvin's gaze fixed on the floor, as he battled with every possibility.“Maybe Kelvin was right after all. Maybe Frank was a danger to my daughter, and I failed to see it. This is my fault. I failed as

“This Is bad.”"I find it hard to believe that Carlos Santiago had a son. If you're right, then there is a problem.”Kelvin raised his brow and nodded his head slowly. “So what? Are you gonna tell me what I asked to know? Or are you going to keep pretending not to know a thing?"Becca sighed deeply, the information was a big blow to her, and she wondered what could happen now that Mark was back.“It's a long story, Kelvin. it's not something you would understand in such a short time.”"Well, let's begin already then. You're my Mom, we have all the time we need.” He said. She sighed and shifted her gaze to the other end of the garden, her shoulders slumped as she sighed, a sign of her internal struggle and indecision. “Your grandfather was not responsible for the death of Carlos Santiago. At least, that's what I know." She said, and Kelvin widened his eyes in surprise. His eyes squinted, as he struggled to understand what she meant.“Yes, there was a meeting led by your grandfather.

That same morning, Katherine sat on the bed inside her room. Her eyes buried on the bed as fear coursed through her for what she had done. Her lips quivered as her heart crossed the incident from the previous night at Nancy's house party. She gasped shakily with a downcast gaze, “how could she have done such a thing," she wondered without voicing out her thoughts. “Are you in? Look child, we can talk about whatever is stressing you. Can you please open the door now?" Mariana called out to her from outside the room, but Katherine closed both her ears with her palms. Tears gathered in her eyes as her shoulders slumped, a clear sign of her guilt. “Go away, Mom. Please." She cried out. Hearing her voice, Mariana was shocked and perplexed by the paleness in her voice. She gasped softly and became more concerned to find out her problem. **Flashback**The previous night, Katherine had prepared for the party as she had promised Nancy back in the office. She wore a red leather gown,

“Assholes!" Kelvin cursed as he sauntered into the house. He went directly to the bar and poured himself a glass of whiskey.“Fucking assholes," he cursed again. He was panting heavily, after a long day at the police department, he had failed to convince the police that Mark Muller was behind the sudden death of Frank. Given the situation, it became obvious that Mark must be monitoring his movement, somehow, he managed to find out whatever he did or discussed with anyone. “Maybe he knows about Juliana already, or maybe he doesn't." Kelvin thought. He paced around the sitting room, thinking of the next move now that Frank was dead. His phone rang, and he glanced at the screen. It was a call from Dead Target. He sighed and dropped the glass of whiskey on the table gently. “What?" He said abruptly as he picked up the call. “I believe you have a mission for me. Let me hear it."Kelvin exhaled and left his seat with a little worry all over his face. “I was going to call you, but some

He had returned to Boston just as Juliana instructed in her texts, and the outcome wasn't all that he had expected. “Boss we're going down, please fasten your seatbelt,” the pilot announced, and Kelvin sighed. He did as instructed, and in less than a minute, they were on the runway. Kelvin gasped, peeping through the window. His mind drifted back to the moment in Boston, Juliana's palms caressing his chest, and building his urge till he couldn't hold back anymore.Flashes from the mind-blowing sex with Juliana came crawling back into his memory, and he let out a low smile. He took off his seatbelt and sauntered down the jet. His security team was already waiting at the airport with a fleet of cars to take him home. As they drove into his compound, he alighted from the car and darted his eyes around. “Where is

It was a new day as the struggle in the Woodluck household continued. Kelvin had been to several meetings, but all proved abortive in helping his Mom. The situation behind Uncle Theo's arrest turned out to be a big disadvantage for his course, and there was no one to turn to for help. He left the bed and started making his Early morning push-ups when he heard his phone ring. He abruptly walked over to the bed and noticed it was a call from Fubris Company in Vancouzer. “What the hell?" He said and picked up the phone. It was just 7:30 am, while would he be getting such a call he thought, so he picked up the call.“This is Kelvin, what's the matter?" He asked curiously, and a dull female voice greeted from the phone, “Good morning, boss."“We have a problem," the lady said and Kelvin furrowed his brow. “Mind going straight to the point? I have too many scheduled for today."“Sir a government agency just came into the company and ordered a total lockdown of the company, and every staf

On a Monday morning, Kelvin woke up late, it was a new day to face the troubles in the family. He grunted, struggling to leave the bed, but he clearly was too tired and needed more sleep. He glanced at his side clock, past 8 already. He jumped off the bed, today was the day when he got to represent his Uncle at the Silverwood Associates. He knew he couldn't mess things up by showing up late, so he rushed into the bathroom. In the blink of an eye, he was done and was dressing himself as fast as he could. A knock came on the door, and he paused. “Come on in," he screamed, and the door opened gently. An old woman walked into the room, wearing white and a kitchen apron on her.“Good morning sir, your coffee is ready as usual. Would you like me to make something else for you before you leave the house?” She asked, and Kelvin sighed. "Naah! Don't worry, Carolina, I don't have any time to eat. The coffee will do just fine,” he said to her and she took a bow before walking out. After dre

“What does the cunny lady have for me this time? I trust that you bring good news? Spit it, I've got no time to waste.” Mark's husky voice said over the phone. Mariana swallowed nervously, her eyes darted around the room as she thought of the best way to say what she had in mind. Mark was someone she knew to be impatient and arrogant, his temper issues were something to be concerned about. She exhaled, darting her eyes around the room.“What is it? I don't have all day." He roared, and she flinched. She swallowed hard and pouted slowly."Uhm… there is a problem," she said. Sitting on his sofa inside his sitting room, he raised his brow, showing his concern for what she had to say. " Spit it out,” he commanded, and she swallowed.Fear engulfed her, thinking about what he would do when she told him the situation."It's Gregory. It happened just like you said. He is deviating from the plan, I think he is going to the police or press, I can't tell which exactly.” "Hmm!” He mumbled in s

She was not in a happy mood, hence her awkward expression. “How many I help ma'am??" The young lady on glasses said, and Katherine sighed. “I need a room for the night," Katherine announced, and she smiled. “Ok ma'am, hold on. Would you prefer a regular room or a VIP room?” After a short consid
