Rosaline was at a loss for words. After a moment of silence, she rolled her eyes. “Whatever. You can miss us or not. All I know is that I'm back at home.”She went and sat down beside him. Bryan, who had been standing at a spot, was discouraged from going to hug Gregg after seeing his cold reception. However, he managed to say a greeting.“Hi, Dad.”Gregg stopped reading his book, turned around and stared intently at Bryan.“Welcome back home.”The duo became confused. What was wrong with Gregg? A moment ago, he was cold and distant but now he's become a little warm.“Are you ok, Gregg?” Rosaline could not help but ask and the man nodded his head. “I'm fine, I just hope you guys have changed for the better?”None of them replied to his question. Ofcourse, Gregg already knew them well. They can never change.His only wish was for them to be family again. Since Arthur was no longer a pushover, they won't be able to do anything to him. In fact, they were still ignorant of how powerful A
Arthur, who had wanted to take Nick to the Probity hotel, decided against it. The man was not a kid so he'd surely throw questions at him.He'd want to find out how Arthur was able to afford the food and drinks in such an expensive hotel. He decided to take the man to a less expensive place where they ate and drank and also made jokes together.Nick was in a high spirit and kept appreciating Arthur for giving him such a treat. It was indeed a privilege because the man had not had fun in a long time.“Thank you for treating me to dinner, Arthur.”“It's nothing. You're always welcome.”They had just finished eating and were busy with the drinks when Nick said to Arthur. “You just opened my eyes to something I've been missing, Arthur. I think I'll begin to make out some time and have fun. It's not all the time that I have to keep working.”Arthur agreed with the man. “That's more like it. We're going to do this again or more often.”“Often is too much, Arthur.” Nick replied while Arthur
Speechless, Nick gaped at Arthur's retreating figure and kept wondering what the problem was. After thinking about it for a while, he decided to let it be.Staring down on the table, he noticed that Arthur kept more money for the bills. He could not also believe that Arthur would give him a few thousand Euros for his time. Where did Arthur get the money from? To think that he got paid for coming out with him to have some fun. Who does that?The man quickly finished his drink and beckoned on the waiter to come over. With the money left by Arthur, he paid for their food and drinks and even gave the man some tip.“Thank you Sir.” The waiter greeted cheerfully as he cleared their table.“Thank you for your patronage.”Nick only nodded and left the place a happy man. At least, he would be going home that night and also had some money to buy some things for his family. With that in mind, he made for the grocery store to restock.Meanwhile, Arthur was on his way to the mansion in his usual w
Everyone watched in awe as Bryan stormed out of the place. He went straight to his room and got Rosaline worried. Bryan left the place in anger and she kept wondering what he was going to do next.Rosaline was indeed in panic while Arthur and Gregg ignored her. Someone who was angry would surely calm down. If Bryan was not satisfied with what he got from Gregg, then he should go and meet his biological father for more.Arthur thought that Bryan and his mother were very greedy people.Rosaline stood up and began to pace around the place. She wanted to go to Bryan's room to find out what he was up to but decided against it.Gregg lifted his face to glance briefly at Rosaline before turning to Arthur. “I don't know why Bryan is overreacting. However, you should just ignore him. You're still my flesh and blood so naturally, the company belongs to you. It was your late mother and I who built it from scratch and brought it to the position it is now.”“Ofcourse, I already know that, Dad and
In the pool of her own blood, lay Rosaline who was accidentally shot by her own son.Letting the gun slip from his hands, Bryan rushed to the ground where his mother was lying lifeless. Gregg and Arthur also rushed over and saw that Rosaline had been shot.Quickly, Arthur ran out to call for help.“Get the car and open the gate immediately. We need some help here.” Arthur was speaking to no one in particular. However, the urgency of his voice caused Kimora to rush inside. He left what he was doing outside. Even the other staff members ran into the house and were stunned to find Rosaline on the floor, in the pool of her own blood.They carried her to the car in a haste and Kimora drove off immediately. Bryan and Arthur joined in the car while Gregg stayed back.While in the car, Bryan kept panicking. He was regretting everything that happened. He kept blaming himself for acting without thinking.Why did he have to bring out a gun?Bryan had bought the gun sometime ago. He decided to hi
Turning his gaze to where Kimora was sitting, Arthur quickly shook his head with a deep frown on his face.“That's not Bryan. I'm sure he must have fled from the hospital after his mother was confirmed dead. And if you must know, the deceased was my stepmom.”The two policemen at the place stared at each other. They had unknowingly missed the culprit.“Wait, are you trying to tell us that Bryan already escaped?”Arthur nodded his head and brought out his phone. He gave the policemen Bryan's picture.Swiftly, one of them left and went to make a call to other stations. He also sent over Bryan's picture and at that instant he was declared wanted.Bryan was now a wanted criminal who committed homicide. The police also warned the public asking them to beware of Bryan. Anyone who saw him must report immediately and would be rewarded.After a question and answer session with the police, Arthur and Kimora went back home to be with Gregg. Gregg, on the other hand, was freaking out at home. Bef
Arthur wouldn't want the news about Rosaline's death to get to the media so he decided to call Axel to deal with it. If the media found out about the unfortunate death of Rosaline, they'll flock around the house and ask questions.Because of Raremix mills, the McCains’ family were little popular so it won't be a surprise to see several journalists show up to ask questions. Since the police were still in the case, he'll leave them to do their job of finding the culprit.As soon as Arthur dropped the call with Axel, he called his grandfather.“Grandpa, I called this late to inform you about the unfortunate incident that happened a while ago in my father's house. My stepmom was accidentally killed by her son, Bryan. I want you to convey the unfortunate news to my Nana.”“Oh, I'm so sorry about that. Tell your Dad that I sent my condolences. I'll also inform your grandma.” Carl Ramon sympathized with his grandson.Because there was nothing much to say, Arthur ended the call. Bryan's name
Stella hurried to the door and opened it. “What do you want?” She was furious that a mere neighbor got them so anxious and they thought it was the police.The woman who was yelled at decided to change her mind. She wanted to borrow some eggs since she ran out of groceries and the shops were all closed. The woman was in such a hurry to come home and cook that she forgot to buy groceries. Stella was the only close door neighbor of hers so she decided to borrow some and return them the next day after getting the groceries. Unfortunately, Stella didn't look like someone who would be willing to lend her some.She seemed furious and it looked as if she was angry at someone. All the woman did was knock on her neighbor's door which was not a crime.Seeing how Stella was acting, she decided not to say the reason for her knocking. “Um, I wanted to… Nevermind.”Without another word, the neighbor turned around and left, leaving Stella stunned.“Don't you come knocking on my door ever again if yo
