**Sixteen years later** Bruce's POV: I couldn't hear Lisa,my first child and mother arguing about something and then she rushed downstairs to stand where I sat with Mr Dominic discussing what to do about my Father who was again asking for help. It never gets old. He just begs for who will give him money these days and I never help him. "Dad, Mom and I, who is more beautiful?" Lisa's velvety voice made me stare at her, as an unwavering smile adored her baby face. I saw Roxy,her mom, walking downstairs. I think she was listening to hear what I would say because she came to sit beside me. "Lisa, baby, why are you asking that?" I asked her and she pouted and folded her arms. "Mommy says she's prettier than me, so who do you think is prettier?" Lisa asked with a raised eyebrow. I think she knows what I was going to say because she was glaring at me. "Darling you and your mum are equally beautiful." I replied, because I don't want to get in some kind of trouble. "I know you never
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 1: Half brother
Everyone was silently seated at the dining table with their eyes closed as Mr Chase said a prayer.After he finished the prayer I waited for them to begin eating before I took my spoon to eat.It was always rare to eat with them, so I found it strange that I was invited to join them for a meal, but it was alright I could eat something delicious with them today.I dug in as I scooped a spoonful of porridge into my mouth and I immediately spat it out as I couldn't believe how salty it tasted. It tasted as if 500 grams of salt was poured into my bowl of porridge since everyone was eating theirs without any problem.Everyone seated on the table crawled up this face in disgust."Ew...what the heck Bruce why did you spit out your food!" Vera, my half sister, squealed.I heard someone slam his hand on the table and I turned to see Mr Chase, my Father angrily glaring at me."I said it that this ungrateful brat will never accept anything good offered to him!" He shouted at me while pointing an
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 2: Break up.
I got even more confused as I needed an explanation as to what was going on here."Laura I don't understand what's going on here, can we talk?'' I asked as I noticed that she frowned upon seeing me."Do you know him?" Philip asked Laura who shook her head and sighed audibly."He's my ex, please close the door." Laura said grumpily as she rolled her eyes and turned her back at me."Ex?"I asked, disbelievingly trying to process what she was saying but my mind was blank."Dude,I think you should leave."Philip said as tried to close the door but I held onto it , stopping him from closing the door."I am her boyfriend, not her ex . I need to talk to her! Philip, stay out of this!" I yelled at the man as we both pushed the door, trying to overpower the other. Philip, who was angrily glaring at me, was trying so hard to close the door but I was pushing the door as if my life depended on it."Open this door!"I yelled."Philip, what are you doing, shut the damn door before this mad man come
The Unexpected Heir Chapter 3: Arranged marriage.
My Father Mr Chase didn't want to listen to me and told me he won't care if Philip sued me for breaking into his apartment and hitting him and that is what Philip my half brother did.When my girlfriend Laura told me she moved into an apartment I was happy for her but I didn't know it was Philip who paid for the apartment.I can't believe she would do something like this to me. I was mopping the floor of the living room as I heard footsteps walking down the stairs and I paused for a moment and turned to the person walking down the stairs.Philip stopped in his steps as he stood still, our eyes made eye contact and his eyes hardened and I noticed him grip the stair rails tightly till his knuckles turned white.I just feel angry whenever I see him so I choose to ignore him but instead of walking out of the house like he wanted to, he climbed down the stairs and came to stand in front of me."I didn't know you were that stupid that you would even think Laura would date you." He said and
