"What do you mean everything went black, mum?" Caleb asked, confused.

"I mean that I fainted. The shock of seeing your father lying on the floor…it was too much for me. I couldn't handle it."

"I woke up to see the maids trying to revive your father, but he wasn't responsive, the ambulance came within minutes and they took him to the hospital."

Caleb hugged his mum. "Oh, mum, I'm so sorry. You must have been so scared."

His mum nodded, tears streaming down her face. "I was. I'm still scared, Caleb. We don't know what's wrong with your father yet. All we can do is hope and pray that he will be okay."

"Don't worry, mum, I'm sure it's nothing serious. Caleb said, trying to reassure her. Sad will be okay."

His mum smiled weakly. "I hope so, I really do."

After what felt like an eternity, the doctor finally came to update them on their dad's condition.

"I have good news." He said with a smile. "Mr Anderson is awake, he's going to be just fine."

Caleb, his mum and Emily all exchanged a reli

    The next morning, Damson's phone rang, waking him up. He groggily answered it, and Luus's voice was on the other end. "Young master, there are some people here at the company, they want to see you." Luis said. Damson rubbed his eyes and tried to shake off the sleep. "Who are they?" He asked, his voice still husky from sleep. Luis hesitated for a minute. "I think it's better you see them for yourself, young master."Damson didn't like the sound of that. He wondered who might have come to the company to see him. "Tell them I'm not available today, they can come another day.""Young master, they're not leaving until they see you. I think you should come to the company. This is not something I can explain on the phone" Luis replied. Damson sighed, feeling frustrated and tired. All he wanted to do today was relax and rest. Caleb didn't come back to the room last night which means he could breath and have a good day without his side remarks. He slowly got out of bed, freshened up and m

    Damson was very angry with Luis. "Why didn't tell me about my father's family? Why didn't you inform me that he had a twin brother?" He asked, his voice loud. "I'm sorry, young master. Your father told me to keep it a secret. He said you had to find out about them on your own." Luis said, bowing, avoiding eye contact. Damson narrowed his eyes. "What's going on Luis. Why are there so many secrets and tests? Can't we just be a normal family like everyone else? How much more secrets do I have to find out myself? What more are you hiding from me?"Luis sighed. "Your father wants you to be strong, young master. He knows that if you want to be in charge of Stellarcorp and the Underworld, you'll face many challenges. He wants you to be able to stand up for yourself and fight for what's yours." Damson rubbed his face, feeling frustrated. "I don't know how much more of this I can take, Luis. I have Marcus's men chasing me, there's Kate too, we're still looking for her. Now I have to deal wi

    Damson shrugged as he read Lily's message. He didn't need to reply her as he doesn't need to do such jobs again, but he decided to. He's not just anyone, he's the president of Stellarcorp. "I won't be available tonight Lily, I have things to do." He typed, sending the message.Lily replied immediately. "You can't just bail out on us Damson. We've been struggling with all our stuff for weeks since you disappeared. Tonight is important. Sasha will be around and we can't mess things up. We need all hands on deck."Damson smiled when he saw Sasha's name. She was the former leader of the sparkle squad and Damson might have had a little crush on her before she handed her position to Lily. He hadn't seen her in her in a while and the thought of seeing her tonight made him reconsider. "Alright, fine." Damson typed. "I'll be there."Lily's response came quickly. "Thank you! See you at 8pm sharp at the basketball court."Night time came by pretty fast and Damson was looking through his cloth

    "I can't believe she brought a group of girls here to the arcade without having money to pay. It's just reckless." One of the arcade staff said, shaking his head. "These college students and their entitled behavior, thinking they can just waltz in here and expect everything for free." "Tell me about it." The other staff member replied. "Like, hello, we have bills to pay too, you know?" "I know, right? And now, she's trying to get her brother to pay over the phone. Girl, you should have thought of that before you started telling all the girls to play all the games here. Don't even get me started on the food." The first staff member said, rolling his eyes. "Yeah, and what's with the constant dialing? Does she really think her brother is just going to magically appear with the money?" The second staff member chuckled."I guess she's desperate, but honestly, I'm not letting her leave until she pays up. She's going to iearn a lesson today." The first staff member said, crossing his arm

    "Your behavior won't be accepted, Damson. You spend weeks away from practice and you return only to cause trouble and steal? You're becoming something else. When did all of these start?" Damson narrowed his eyes, his jaw clenched. "I didn't steal the sneakers." He said, through gritted teeth. "Stop lying!" Coach yelled angrily. "You mean everyone in the locker room lied against you? Everyone admitted to you stealing the sneakers and you're trying to deny it. You need to fix up, Damson. I'm going to make sure you learn the hard way. I'm so disappointed in you." Damson was frustrated, but Coach continued. "You're suspended for two weeks and you will not be playing in the next four games. You may leave." Damson was angry but he knew arguing was pointless. This was all because of David. He glared at Coach, turned and slammed the door behind him as he left the office. He checked his phone to see that Viktor had called him back, but he missed his call. He called him back. "I'll send

    "Wait, what? Did you just say boyfriend?" Mia asked in disbelief. "That's impossible. How? When did it happen? When did you guys start dating?"Mia glared at Sasha, her eyes scanning her from head to toe. She is a very pretty girl who didn't relate much with everyone. Although, she wasn't in the same department as the rest of them. She was part of the 10 most beautiful girls on campus and Mia couldn't understand how she was Damson's girlfriend. Sasha smiled, unfazed by Mia's glare. "We met a few weeks ago and we started dating soon after. We've been together for a while, maybe a month." Mia's eyes widened in shock. A month? How is that possible? Damson is not even worthy of her. She's way out of his league.Sasha was a low key person, but people who knew her knew she was from a wealthy family. She never showed off her wealth or used it to impress others. She had also told her parents she wanted to make her own money and didn't want their help.Mia was pretty and curvy, but Sasha was

    Damson sat up straight as soon as he saw Sasha's message on his phone. He was surprised and curious. How did she get his contact? He hadn't given it to her and he was sure he hadn't posted it online anywhere. Why was she asking him about a lottery ticket? He doesn't even know where to buy one. He wasn't expecting her to reach out like this, especially about something as random as a lottery ticket. Damson was still lost in thought, trying to make sense of Sasha's message, when his phone buzzed again. He looked down to see another message from her."Hey, let's meet up tomorrow and get the lottery ticket together. I'm too excited to wait, I want to get it as soon as possible." She wrote. Damson's eyes furrowed in confusion. What was going on? They had met Just the day before, and she hadn't mentioned anything about a lottery ticket. It was as if she had intentionally waited until today to text him. "Is she interested in me? Is she looking for excuses to spend time with me? Does she l

    Sasha glared at the lady as she slammed the bills on the table. She was determined not to back down, so she pulled Damson to a corner, whispering to him. "I need $2000 dollars, right now." Damson looked at her in disbelief, his eyes wide with shock. "What do you mean, Sasha? We're here to buy just a ticket, not 20 tickets! We didn't plan for this. You're going too far. Let's focus on why we came here." "I know, but I can't let them win. They're trying to intimidate us. They think they're better than us just because they have more money? No way. I need $2000 to show them we do belong on the same level." "We're not riffraffs, but by the time we leave this place without doing anything, we're accepting that everything that everything they said is true." Damson shook his head. " Sasha, think about it, We're students. We don't have that kind of money and even if we did, it's not worth it just to prove a point. We don't even know them. Let's just leave."Sasha was adamant. "Find a way,

    “I worked all my life for your father,” Luis began, his voice filled with bitterness. “Tirelessly helped him build Stellarcorp from the ground up. And when the company became big, he still used me like a fool.”“I didn’t mind at first,” he continued. “I treated Stellarcorp like it was mine too. Gave it everything. But then, out of nowhere, he decides to look for his long-lost son, to give you the company.”Luis scoffed.“He didn’t even ask me what I thought. Didn’t care. Just ordered me to find you and hand it all over. To make it worse, he told me to watch over you while you ran the company. Can you imagine that? Me, the man who brought Stellarcorp to fame, reduced to your babysitter.”“The company should have been mine, not yours. Your father’s lucky he died when he did, helping you escape. It was supposed to be you six feet under, not him. But you were just lucky that day. My men did a sloppy job.”Suddenly, a voice rang out.“Enough of your talk, just kill this bastard already!”

    “Am I in a moving car? I’m definitely in one.” Damson thought to himself as he opened his eyes groggily. He tried to sit up and realized he was in the trunk of a car. He banged on it several times, trying to get it open, but it wouldn’t budge. He began to sweat, helpless and disoriented, forced to wait until someone decided to open it.“Who did this to me? What happened?”“Why can’t I remember being put in the trunk?” Is Maria okay? Was she also shoved into another car?”So many questions ran through Damson’s head. He was confused. His head felt heavy, too big to carry.He eventually laid back down and decided to wait until the car stopped. After about twenty minutes of pure torture, the car finally came to a halt. Damson let out a small sigh of relief. He heard muffled voices outside, and then suddenly, the trunk flung open.He blinked against the light and tried to sit up, but his body failed him. He couldn’t move. No matter how hard he tried, only his head responded. “What the he

    Damson couldn’t leave the Wilsons just like that after finding out what Mr. Wilson had done for him. The man saved his life, and the least Damson could do was help the family with the funeral preparations. He paid for all the expenses and also gave them a large sum of money to sustain them for a long time. He even advised Logan to invest wisely.He had wanted to stay longer, but Logan asked him not to. His mother and sister would only feel more pain with him around. His presence would be a constant reminder of what happened to their father, and they didn’t need that. Damson understood and didn’t push further so he left.At first, he decided to head to his apartment, but then he changed his mind and went to the dorm instead. He hadn’t been there in a while, and he wanted to see his friends, Luke and Fred. They had reached out to him several times, asking where he was and why he hadn’t been around. At the time, he couldn’t tell them he was married, so he just told them he had gone job

    Maria sat in the car, fiddling with her fingers, random thoughts flying through her mind as she stared out the window. Kate was seated beside her, and two other men were in the car with them.She didn’t fully understand what she was doing or what she had just agreed to but one thing was clear, she couldn’t die because of someone else.Damson would do the same, right? Maria wondered, now biting her nails.He’d choose survival too, even if it meant putting me in danger… right? Anyone would… right? She was disturbed.“But Damson betrayed me too. He treated me like a fool, lied to me, and deceived me. I thought that we were close, that our bond was real.”“Had he been acting all along?”“How is he even the president of StellarCorp? When did that happen?”“He was the poorest student in school. So how? It doesn’t make sense.” Maria’s thoughts raced, growing angrier by the second.“I could’ve gotten more opportunities. I could’ve had a good job in his company. I was close to him! But he de

    “What! No, no, please don’t kill me. Please don’t,” Maria cried, scared for her life. Today has been a rollercoaster of emotions. She was scared, disturbed, and deeply worried and she couldn’t help but be angry at Damson for dragging her into his mess.She was in this situation because of him.“Caleb and the boss want Damson dead, and now, because of him, I’m going to die too.” She thought to herself. “Where’s Kate?” the boss asked, ignoring Maria’s cries.“Since the last time she almost got caught by Damson, Kate had been lying low.” One of the men replied. “Tell her to come here right now. She has someone to get rid of.”“Is that really the next thing you’re supposed to do? I don’t care what you do with Maria, but can it wait till we finish off Damson? Why are you wasting time killing people you’re not supposed to!?” Caleb asked the boss, frustrated.“It’s your fault this is happening!” the boss snapped. “I told you nobody was supposed to know that Damson is the president of Stel

    Caleb ran his hand through his hair angrily. His body trembled, and all he wanted to do was find Damson and end his life. He wasn’t interested in whatever plan the boss had to offer. He just wanted to carry out his own.His life had taken a dip after his father lost his company and couldn’t get help from anyone. He had called all his father’s friends and visited different companies for assistance, but everyone gave him the same answer, they couldn’t help. He was devastated. His father became ill, and they had to sell their cars and properties just to afford treatment.Caleb was left with nothing. He was broke and had to struggle to get by every day. Because of that, he hardly showed up at school. Everyone had known him as one of the richest boys in the university, but now, everything was gone. He had nothing.To avoid questions and rumors, he stayed away from school and wandered around. He spent most of his days at clubs, stealing from people and drinking. It was during one of those

    Maria blinked hard, hoping she was seeing the wrong person but she wasn’t. She didn’t want to believe who stood in front of her.“Long time no see, Maria,” Caleb said, smiling sheepishly. “Did you miss me?”“Caleb… what…what is going on? Why are you here? Why am I here? Who are these people?” Maria stuttered, struggling to pull herself together. She didn’t want to believe Caleb had anything to do with her being kidnapped.“I asked you a question, but you’re throwing more at me in return.” Caleb said, his smile fading. “Courtesy demands you greet someone when you’re seeing them for the first time in a long while. Or have I become just ‘anyone’ to you now? Have you forgotten me so easily, huh? I made you a university student and suddenly you’ve grown proud?”“Cut it out, Caleb, and answer me!” Maria snapped, cutting him off. “What the hell am I doing here!? If this is one of your silly pranks, you better stop it now. I don’t have time for this! I’m not interested in whatever this is, s

    Maria paced back and forth, staring at her phone. She had spent the last few days thinking about the argument she had with Damson. She hadn’t tried to reach out to him since they last spoke, and he hadn’t reached out to her either. She was angry about that, but she had more to think about than just her anger.Damson and Viktor had acted really suspicious on the day she last spoke to Damson, and she was dying to know what was going on. “What emergency could Viktor have been talking about that made Damson react that way? What exactly went wrong?” she wondered to herself.She had had her suspicions about Damson before that day, but the way he acted even when he was injured made her realize something was definitely going on.She decided to find out for herself, so she packed her bags and left for Damson’s apartment. She wanted answers. She needed to know what was going on — and most importantly, the truth about his relationship with Luis, who represented Stellarcorp at the charity organi

    "Leo was the reason why my father had a stroke and had to be using a wheelchair. These past few months before you came have been brutal. Leo came with his friends to raid our house. It was just very sad that I was out clubbing on that very day. I should have been around to teach that bastard a very big lesson he would never forget." Logan said angrily. "I've been looking everywhere for Leo but I just can't find him." Damson replied. "If not that I have more pressing issues at hand, I'd do everything I can to fish him out from his hiding place." "I don't think you can find him just like that. Also, I think Leo also has something to do with the strange men my dad has been seeing. I don't know if it's true but that's what I just think.""That's the only reason why my dad would still be in contact with him after everything he had done. I can't even start mentioning everything that the bastard has done to our family and to be honest, I just want him dead!" "Can we just put Leo aside fo
