After Lord Wilson left, the house fell into a strange silence, a heavy silence. No one could make a sound, all eyes were on the door which Lord Wilson had just passed through, and the silence was even thicker. Daniel never considered marrying Samira and therefore he didn't plan anything for the wedding, however, from the things he had heard about her family, he was going to expect a wedding that was more than anything he had ever seen in his life. After a few moments, a laugh was heard, and everyone turned to look at who was laughing. it was Lady Wilson, she was laughing nervously. She had a cruel looking grin on her face. Everyone was silent.Finally, Daniel asked" What's so funny?""Oh nothing honey, you'll see soon enough. Welcome to the Wilson family Daniel! " Lady Wilson said, laughing and pointing at the door where Lord Wilson had disappeared.Everyone became quiet again after Lady Wilson left. Samira went back to the sitting room and sat down. She hadn't expected anything lik
***" You're such an incompetent Paul " The manager shouted . He was very angry." What do you mean?" The hencher replied pretending not to know what the manager was talking about." That's what I'm asking you, Where are you at with our shenanigans plan? Daniel is still in this company and instead of getting fired, he's going to be promoted for the contract he was able to get us with Empire State Building " The manager said with a threatening voice. Paul was scared, he didn't want to lose his job and he knew that the manager was angry because he had failed to get rid of Daniel from the company."I'm sorry sir, I'm doing everything I can, we're almost done" Paul said."Do what you have to" the manager said.They stayed silent for a while, then the manager continued " I'm going to be very busy with the merger with Empire State building, I need you to accomplish this task by yourself. If you fail, well... you're fired"Paul was very afraid."I will sir" He said." Good luck Paul " Manag
Then she realized she had made a mistake, she had never duplicate real keys, it was a joke among themselves in the house, to open the door by pressing both buttons at the same time, hoping that it would be impossible to do so"Shit" She said, she was scared.She heard applause and turned to see where it was coming from, she saw her father come out from behind the living room curtain. Her heart jumped in her throat she was so surprised." Congrats! Congrats Samira!" He said." Father !" She yelled astonished.His smile broadened and he came closer to hug her."Good evening daughter" He said."Father, what are you doing here?" She asked surprised." I came to surprise you" He answered." But... But... I passed by your room, I even opened the door and I saw you sleeping. How... how are you here?" Samira asked baffled. She didn't understand how she had just left her father in his bedroom and found him here in the living room." Where were you planning to go young girl?” Lord Wilson asked s
***Samira and Daniel were getting married in a few days, the wedding was scheduled for Saturday evening in a church in downtown Manhattan.The reception would be held in the Empire State Building, which Daniel had recently purchased.Daniel's friend Leo was organizing the event, since Daniel was too busy to deal with any wedding details.Samira didn't know what to expect. She had never attended a wedding before.And besides she didn't want to marry Daniel.***Wedding daySamira was nervous, she was wearing a white dress with a long train and a veil that went from her head to her ankles. She was escorted by her father and two security guards.She entered the church and took her place in front of her father."You look beautiful" Daniel said."Thank you" Samira answered curtly.Daniel He was also very handsome for the occasion he had worn black tuxedo and a black tie ,donated by Lord Wilson.Samira didn't have many friends, so none of them were invited. Only her parents and brothers wer
It was Eric! It was Eric! She recognized him from a distance.She was shocked and scared.He came closer and stood in front of her table. He was smiling."Eric!" she said."Samira" He said."What are you doing here?" She asked."I'm here for the party" He answered."Of course you are" she said." Samira I didn't know you were that kind of girl? how are you getting married without telling me? I thought I meant a minimum to you. And in addition you promised to marry me and to give me your virginity" Eric said angrily."I... I..." Samira stammered."Well ? Are you going to tell me why you are acting like this? are you going to tell me what happened between you and that Daniel? or are you ashamed of what you did with me? Why are you avoiding me?" Eric asked aggressively."I'm sorry, but I can't answer any of your questions, because I don't know how to explain the reason why I'm behaving like this. And I told you my dad made me marry him." Samira answered."Don't you remember what you told
Samira trembled at the sound of his voice.The room was topless. the tables were broken, there was broken glass everywhere and blood stains."My nose" Daniel said."Sorry" Samira apologized."I guess we'll have to postpone the wedding" Lord Wilson said."I agree" Daniel said."Do you think we can start from scratch?" Lord Wilson asked."Yes, of course" Daniel said.Lord Wilson walked over to Daniel and Samira."I'm truly sorry" Samira said."Please, don't be sorry" Daniel said." I'm not going to cancel the wedding" Lord Wilson announced."I don't care about the wedding" Daniel said."It's not about the wedding, it's about the fact that you are married already." He explained."I don't care!" Daniel said."That's the problem! you don't care! You don't seem to realize that you are married, you're my son in law!" he said angrily."I don't care!" Daniel repeated."I'm sorry but you must understand that this is a serious matter. I can't end the ceremony" Lord Wilson said.Samira was just c
28"Leave us alone" they said." go away then!" Aris said.Daniel left the room.***Daniel arrived in front of his office and saw Cynthia in front with two cups of coffee, he was surprised. What was she doing there?"Good afternoon" Daniel greeted her."Good morning" Cynthia replied."How are you today?" Daniel asked."I'm fine" Cynthia answered."Do you want to come inside?" Daniel asked.Cynthia nodded.Daniel opened the door and let her enter.Daniel closed the door behind her." My congratulations on your marriage Daniel! All the best wishes!"Cynthia congratulated him.Daniel smiled."Thank you" he said."I hope everything works out for you and Samira" Cynthia said.Daniel was happy that she congratulated them." Did you want something?" Daniel asked her . He looked at her suspiciously. What did she want from him? Certainly not good. What did she want from him? Certainly not good. Especially since he knew she was Paul's ex." I just came to give you your coffee, as I noticed th
"I can't believe it!" Paul said, in shock."How do you feel about that?" Cynthia asked him."Well, I must admit that I'm surprised, but very happy too!" Paul admitted."Congratulations! I'm so happy for us!" Cynthia smiled."For us? For us? Cynthia, it's your baby, not mine!" Paul said frowning.Their baby? How so ? whatever, who said he wanted to be a dad?Cynthia looked at him sadly. She knew that this wasn't what he expected, and she was sorry for having hurt him."Don't worry, we'll talk about this later, when you're ready to accept! " she said.Paul sighed, He was satisfied and relieved, he had so many problems, if he were to be a father again, it would be a disaster. He doubted he would ever accept. But, it didn't matter. All that mattered was that he had found the proof he needed."Tell me, do you have the recording with you?" Paul asked with a smile." Yes I have, that's why I called you" Cynthia said smiling."Great! Now, I need you to send it to me, then I'll make sure you g
Daniel's heart raced as he listened to the woman's words. He couldn't believe that he might finally have a chance to get revenge on the people who had ruined his life."Who is it?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.The woman hesitated for a moment before replying. "It's someone high up in the organization. Someone who has been working with the government to bring down anyone who opposes their agenda."Daniel's mind raced as he tried to think of who it could be. He had never been privy to the inner workings of the organization, but he knew that there were a few key players who had more power than others."Do you have a name?" he asked, his voice urgent.The woman nodded. "His name is Samuel. He's one of the key leaders of the organization, but he's been working with the government for years. He's the one who set you up, and he's the one who has been orchestrating everything from behind the scenes."Daniel felt a surge of anger and hatred towards Samuel. He had never met the m
As Daniel grew older, he began to realize that his work had taken a toll on his body and mind. The constant threat of danger, the long hours of investigation, and the weight of responsibility for so many lives had left him exhausted.He knew that he needed to step back and take care of himself, but he also knew that there were still so many battles to be fought. And so, he began to train a new generation of activists and journalists, passing on his knowledge and experience to those who would carry on his legacy.Together, they continued to work towards a more just and transparent world, but they did so with a sense of caution and vigilance, always aware of the dangers that lurked around every corner.But even as they faced new challenges and obstacles, Daniel remained hopeful. He knew that his work had made a difference, and he knew that the fight for justice would continue long after he was gone.And so, he continued to inspire others, to push for change, and to make a difference in
As the days passed, the group of activists and journalists grew larger, with more and more people joining their cause. They continued to work tirelessly, gathering evidence, investigating leads, and publishing stories that shook the country to its core.Their work soon caught the attention of the government, and they became the target of smear campaigns and threats. But they refused to back down, and they continued to publish stories that exposed corruption and held those in power accountable.One day, Daniel received a call from a journalist he had worked with in the past. "Daniel, I need your help," the journalist said urgently. "I've been investigating a major government scandal, and I'm getting threats to stop."Daniel didn't hesitate. "Where are you?" he asked.The journalist gave him the address of a rundown apartment building in a seedy part of town. "I'll be there in an hour," Daniel said.When he arrived, the journalist was waiting for him, looking nervous and scared. "They k
Daniel listened intently as the woman revealed the information she had. She explained that the organization was being backed by a powerful politician, who had his sights set on becoming the next president."He's using the organization to fund his campaign," she said. "And he's willing to do whatever it takes to make sure he wins."Daniel nodded. It all made sense now. The organization was just a tool for the politician to achieve his own ambitions. And they had been set up to fail from the very beginning."What can we do?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper."We have to expose the truth," the woman replied. "We have to make sure that the world knows what's really going on."Daniel nodded. It was a risky plan, but it was their only chance.Over the next few days, Daniel and the woman worked tirelessly to gather evidence and build a case against the politician. They hacked into his emails and social media accounts, and they found proof of his ties to the organization.They also
Chapter 69: The HuntDaniel Biao had been on the run for years. He had become a master of disguise, blending into crowds and disappearing into the shadows. But even with all his skills, he knew that he couldn't run forever. The people he had worked for in the past were desperate to find him, and they were getting closer every day.One night, as Daniel was making his way through a crowded market, he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned around and saw a woman staring back at him. She was beautiful, with long dark hair and piercing green eyes."Daniel Biao," she said, her voice low and husky. "I've been looking for you."Daniel's heart raced as he tried to make sense of what was happening. He knew that he couldn't trust anyone, especially not a stranger."Who are you?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper."I'm a friend," the woman replied. "I know you've been on the run, and I want to help you. But we need to move quickly. They're closing in on you."Daniel hesitated for a moment
68Daniel took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew that his nightmare was just that, a nightmare. But the memory of Eric's threats still haunted him.He glanced at the clock on the wall and saw that it was almost midnight. He wondered if Samira had been there the whole time, watching over him. He didn't want to wake her, but he also didn't want to be alone with his thoughts."Samira," he whispered, trying not to startle her. "Are you awake?"Samira stirred and opened her eyes. "Yeah, I'm here," she said, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. "What's wrong?""It's nothing," Daniel said, trying to sound casual. "Just had a bad dream."Samira looked at him for a moment, as if she could tell he was lying. But she didn't press the issue. "Do you want to talk about it?" she asked, offering him a sympathetic smile.Daniel shook his head. "No, it's okay," he said. "I just need to distract myself. Maybe we can watch a movie or something?"Samira smiled and nodded. "Sure," she said
66Suddenly, Daniel woke up in a cold sweat, realizing that it was all just a nightmare. He breathed a sigh of relief and looked around his room, grateful to be safe in his own bed.But as he tried to shake off the fear and confusion of his dream, he noticed something odd. His room looked different. The walls were a different color, the furniture was rearranged, and there were unfamiliar objects scattered around."Where am I?" Daniel muttered to himself.Just then, a woman's voice called out from the doorway, "Good morning, Daniel! Did you sleep well?"Daniel turned to see a woman he didn't recognize, smiling at him from the doorway. "Who are you?" he asked, his heart racing.The woman's smile faded. "Don't you remember me, Daniel? It's me, Samira."Daniel's mind raced as he tried to make sense of what was happening. Was this another dream? If so, it was more vivid and real than any dream he had ever experienced.But deep down, he knew that something was very wrong. And as the woman c
65Daniel didn't know how to react.He could not afford to get angry or offended, because the agreement was already signed and sealed.That was the reason why he kept calm, he had to act like he wasn't hurt by her words.It was too late to change anything, it was already done, he had to accept it and move on.They all started to defend themselves."Lady Wilson, you're hurting us, that's not the proper way to behave" a senior partner said."Daniel" a partner said "this lady is hurting everyone here".A director spoke up, "Lady Wilson, please let's talk about it calmly and peacefully."A senior partner said.Everyone looked at each other and apologized to Lady Wilson.Daniel did not understand what had happened, why would she say such thing?"Let me get this clear , she's my mother-in-law, you shouldn't take her words and twist them. They all started to defend themselves."Lady Wilson, you're hurting us, that's not the proper way to behave" a senior partner said."Daniel" a partner sa
64He smelled the poison and remembered its smell, it was the poison that had been used to poison Lord Wilson the first je came to the Wilson family and saved Lord Wilson from certain death.He was stunned !!! "Could it be..." He thought stunned."Could it be that lady Wilson poisoned Lord Wilson?" He wondered .He took the flask in his hands and walked towards the exit of the room."No!I won't believe it, not just now.I need to investigate more" he thought in disgust.Then he came to her door , opened the door, closed it quickly and gently, put the key back under the doormat and left quickly , he was walking with his head in the air that he did not even notice the presence of anyone in front of him, he ran into Lady Wilson."Oh!!!!" What is wrong with you. "she screamed , her body flew off the floor and she was writhing in pain."I'm sorry.I am sorry" Daniel said, and helped her." Do not touch me ! you bastard! She shouted in fury."It's alright, I didn't intend to hurt you" Da
