The Son-in-law they never wanted The Invitation
*** *** ***The next two days, Asher, Ethan and Ryan got busy with collecting informations."I always knew there's more to you" Ethan whispers, earning a warning glare from Ryan."Sorry." Ethan mouthed as they heard footsteps. Ryan only shaked his head in response. They've agreed Asher was going to reveal himself to the world the following day.Then whatever comes next, they'll battle it together and start attacking the members .How??! Only Ryan and Asher knows that. Since they were still suspicious of Ethan, he was kept in the dark and only allowed to offer an opinion in matters that didn't matter."Hey soldier boy," Olivia entered the kitchen, "I didn't realize this is now your base!" She sneers."Hello marketer." Ethan replies in an overly sweet voice, "it's nice you found interest in monitoring me.""Ryan, tell your minion to stop using my shampoo!! And his hair is usually everywhere.""You should be happy I deem your shampoo worthy of my hair.""Why are you here in the first pl

*** *** "Can I tag along?" Olivia asks, the minute Alina entered the kitchen."Just after you threatened my mother? Sorry no and besides, you heard Grandma Joan, Family only.""I am family too.""I suppose..... In a way but we are talking about Grandma Joan here." Alina explained, almost pleading with her voice for Olivia to understand her."What about Ethan?" Olivia argued.Ethan scoffs, "If Ryan is going, no one can stop me from tagging along.""There, you have it." Olivia opened her arms, as if proving a point."Why do you even want to go? You have no business there.""I want to see how your family is like." Olivia shrugs.Alina face palmed herself and walked to the room. There was no use convincing them.** **Grandma Joan had always been a formidable presence in the family. Despite being in her late seventies, she still had a sharp mind and a commanding voice. So when she called a family dinner in honor of their late grandfather, Javier, everyone knew they had to be there. They

*** *** ***Ryan woke up to a banging head ache. He groaned in pain, opening his eyes slowly.The alarm went off in his head at the unfamiliar surrounding. It looked like a ware house, he noticed, oddly similar to his but this is bigger and.. and....He juggled his body in a daze.He was tied to a chair, the room is dark, save for a single yellow bulb that is supposed to illuminate the entire room."Ah... I see... Sleeping beauty his finally awake." A voice chuckled.Ryan stilled, recognizing the all familiar voice then a giggle followed.Tht giggle. He had warned and threaten her, yet she went ahead with whatever this was?Ryan wore a deep frown instantly, trying to make sense of his surroundings and the circumstances that led him here.He had eaten from the food at the Bruce family house.Everyone ate the same thing, so there wasn't a chance it was drugged, except. His frown got deeper.The dessert was cake, short ones and of different colors, so it was entirely possible he was dr

*** ***"Are we supposed to wait for them or what?" Ethan asks, directing his question at no one in particular."I am not going to wait around. You saw two couples left the dining room, probably to have some alone time and yet you are, still waiting like an idiot." Olivia counters."If that makes me an idiot, then what does it make you too? For the world to know, you are still here, waiting with me and that also makes you much of an idiot as I am.""You sure as hell better have your bus card because I wouldn't pay your transport fees.""I didn't expect you to." Ethan snaps, walking out of the Bruce family house. Everyone had left, leaving only both of them. Olivia muttered some incoherent words under her breath, following Ethan with a grumble. It was late now and the sky was really dark. "Heyy, wait up!" She called after him increasing her pace.Ethan allowed her enter the bus first and paid for both of them before she found her bus card in her purse."That doesn't mean anything." H

*** *** ***"What is this place?" Olivia mutters."Hollock's avenue." Ethan grumbled "Yeah, I know. It was meant to be a rhetorical question." Olivia retorts back, glancing around in hopes of catching a glimpse of the deep voice stranger that answered Alina's phone. He is like her ideal dream man "Whatever." Ethan mumbled, squatting over Alina's bag."This is it." Olivia whispers."Yeah.... what do you think?""They were kidnapped?""Probably, who do you think did it?""I don't know..""You've been with them longer and you don't know if they have enemies?""For your information, we both got started living with them barely few days apart if not the same day.""But you know the family longer, No?""Yeah, I do... Still...""That doesn't excuse anything.""Yeah, whatever.""Olivia, I need you to concentrate, tell me anything you know that can help us find them."Olivia kept mute, her heart beating fast. I really don't know Ethan. I wish I can help but I don't know anything about the fam

*** *** ***Alex enters his villa tentatively, half expecting his father to be seated on one of the chairs in the living room.Ever since his father stalked out of the villa few days ago, he hadn't visited nor has Alex heard anything from him. He is eerily quiet and that scared Alex. "I don't think he'll be coming back." Devin mutters assuredly behind Alex."Let's hope so." The home phone suddenly rang breaking the stillness that descended in the room.Devin and Alex exchanged glances, then seeing Alex wasn't going to answer the call, Devin shrugs and goes to the hall way."Hello?" He answers the call, placing it on speaker as he walked back to the living room."Hello.. this is Booker, Mr Morbian's assistant?""I know you Booker, how may I help you?" Devin asks in a bored tone."I would like to speak with Mr Alex if you don't mind.""I'm afraid Mr Alex is currently indisposed to talk to you now, so if you wish, you can pass on whatever message you have, I'll make sure to deliver it

*** *** ***Booker hung up without waiting for Devin's response. "Getting a joint contract with the Nolvani company?" Alex echoed.Devin nods grimly, "I think we both heard that together."Alex shrugs, "not bad.... I was thinking of a collaboration with them before, anyway, so this would just make me act on my plans quicker.""But don't you find it weird?" Devin asks, a frown on his face."Huh?""You know, coming from your dad, someone who loves competition and coming first, also considering how he has been bad mouthing the company, don't you feel this is weird? You don't think he is up to something, do you?""As much as I would love to ponder on your theory, I would rather not. Just leave the man alone. Maybe he had a change of heart.""Quick reminder Alex, we are talking about your father here.""Let's not talk about it. I don't want to read meaning into everything he does. Everyone deserves a second chance."Devin shakes his head in annoyance, "this is hopeless." He mutters in an

That's why I made it clear to you to be punctual.""I don't take orders from children." Jonas bites back.The voice laughed, "what's makes you think you are older?"

He walked by the wall in hopes of getting a switch but it was like the apartment was built without electricity and not to allow natural light in.He was getting pissed by the second, he hated that he couldn't see the face of the person he is talking to."Are you insinuating you are older than me?"

**** "I don't understand you" I continued when we entered the car "if I'm to be treated like a queen, why are you driving when we have an entire entourage behind us?" I asked "Because I'm treating you like a queen, durh" "I'll think of you as my driver then" I smiled satisfactorily. "I have a very juicy news" he licked his lips. "I can see it's really juicy for you to lick your lips, did you taste the juice?" He glared at me and concentrated on driving. Knowing him, I knew he would continue talking. "My three year old girl is dying to see you. She even decorated her bedroom and expects you to share the room with her" he said admiringly. "I knew she would always be smart, smarter than her father who paid an entire entourage to accompany us home" "It's was her idea, so that means I'm smarter" he bit his cheeks to surpress himself from laughing. "Wow that's so smart of her, she deserves a medal." I replied wiping the smile off his face. "Hmph.." he

Five years later, Courtney I stood at the arrival terminal in the airport, looking for my ride home. I had travelled to Europe for college with the help of Div and Donald and graduated with an upper class in law. I specifically chose to major in law so I can lend my voice to those that are voiceless. I saw a flag raised up with the name CounterKnee. I shook my head and walked to the person who was busy chatting away on his phone with a big smile on his face. I smacked him on the arm "Didn't I tell you not to call me CounterKnee?" I playfully glared at him. "What do you expect me to do when I miss you so much?" He grinned at me "Should I blush now or what?" "None, a hug will do" I hugged him tight "it's been five years" "I know right, it feels like yesterday and it also feels like ages ago" We disengaged from the hug and he collected my luggages from me, leading me to sleek car and I noticed an entourage. "Please don't tell me you hired

Donald "I knew something was up with that Uncle of yours. I never liked him." Mum said after I narrated everything to her. "I still can't believe he tried to kill me and Courtney." "I haven't told your father about it. You mentioned Div just now?" "Yeah, he's the one that helped" "That's new, the Div I heard about is cruel and he's a Drug Lord." Mum explained. "A drug Lord? Courtney got herself involved with a drug Lord? Is that why the police man saluted to him" "Maybe..... I'll head over to the police station. They should wrap up the case, we aren't making any charges. He's dead, we don't need to mention his case in court." I shrugged and eyed mother who was staring at me with mischief. I went over and hugged her tightly. "About Courtney" mum started. "Don't even go there mum..... don't" I disengaged from the hug and flashed her a grin then went to the kitchen where I met Flynn and Eva cooking. It was a sight to behold. "We're sorry,

"What contract you signed with mother ends today, I'll give you the money" My heart plummeted down, I wanted the money for college so I can't rent an apartment till I apply. "I want to work for my money" I argued "No, you've worked enough. I'm going to sponsor you to college and you can always consider this place as home" I wanted to raise my head and look at him. He pressed my head back against his chest "No don't look at me" "Thank you" I said with so much sincerity. "You deserve it CounterKnee" " Sorry to break you guys up, but what the heck happened?" Another voice said "Mum" Donald cried out, not masking the surprise in his voice. His mum?!

*** He stared at me as if he couldn't believe what he was wearing and pulled me into a hug. I let myself be hugged and relax in his embrace. It's finally over, we conquered our nightmares. "Know the first thought that crossed my mind when I saw you?" He asked, his chin resting on my head. I shook my head negatively against his chest. "Who's this fierce beautiful petite lady with wild chestnut hair who isn't afraid of my cold aura and broke through, now I have a warm heart willing to love." "What do you think when you see now, after you know, everything?" I asked "Wow, my bossy maid is one hell of a strong woman, beautiful and fierce at the same time, selfless too. She's one of the people I hold dear to my heart now." I blushed, surprised someone still thinks of me as beautiful. "What contract you signed with mother ends today, I'll give you the money"

ourtney ️ I watched helplessly as the policemen took Div away. "I'll be okay and probably be back in the night" he said as they took him away but that didn't alleviate my worry. Killing Simon was self defense, the police should know that. Seeing I wasn't convinced "what about bringing your flowers this night?" I smiled and nodded in agreement. After he left with the police, an ambulance came to carry Simon's corpses and I was asked to vacate the room without cleaning as they need evidence. I packed my belongings and moved them to Donald's room. I sat on his bed, reminiscing. Simon is really dead, my nightmare is gone. It still felt surreal. Donald entered and sat quietly beside me. "I'm so sorry Nora, I'm sorry I didn't believe you" he pleaded. I looked at him and placed my hands on his, "If I were you, I wouldn't have believed a stranger over my blood too so I'm not angry."

Shocks
Donald I entered the room and stood in shock as I watched Uncle fall slowly to the ground with a strange man holding a gun. I glanced at Nora, she was holding a gun too. Where did she get the gun? "Who the fuck are you?" I wanted to ask but the words died down in my mouth when I saw her run to the strange man. For a moment, my heart surged with gratitude towards the strange man. He save Nora. I didn't mind that Uncle is dead, after all he had been planning to kill me too. "Who are you?" I wanted to ask again but the police men interrupted this time. They looked at the gun in the strange man's hand and Simon's corpse. "You are under arrest sire" The police man saluted before talking which only made me more curious. Who exactly is this man standing here??

*** After I killed him, she ran over and hugged me, surprising me completely. My sister was the only person that could hug me, here, another person is taking her place. I hugged her back not caring about the person behind me who should be the owner of the house. Hugging another person after a long while felt good and refreshing so I held on to her, not worried about the blood seeping into my clothes. "B-bo-boss" Jeff stammered. "Just kneel and raise your hands up till I come back and clean the mess here" "W-where are you going?" "Police station." Just as I said it, a batch of policemen entered fully armed and took in the state of the room including the kneeling Jeff.

Do or die
DIV While I asked Jeff to stay guard of the house, I also stationed two more people. When I got report that Simon was heading to her room and destroying things in his bedroom, I knew he was going to do something other than having sex with her this night. So I got into my car and drove as fast as I could. I told her I won't let his blood stain her hands and I'm a man of my words. I'm not going to let her go to jail because of him. I couldn't protect my sister then and she's going to be angry if I don't help Nora. I entered in time to see him choking her and her pulling the gun I gave her out. I stood, watching the entire exchange, waiting for the right time to make a move. When he pointed the gun at her, I pulled my gun out and was about shooting. Then she threw the lamp at his hand, aiming perfectly. She picked the gun quickly and made to aim. I took action then and killed him. From my research, the Simon of a man has about twenty more people in ca
