The hidden heir of Wayne Fifty-seven: Change in plans
Shock was that feeling of pause while the brain made a new connection, one that brought high emotion of either joy or sorrow. It was just like finding yourself unexpectedly on a platform, a train approaching, realizing that that time the destination was not a choice.China's brain stuttered for a moment and her eyes took in more light than she expected, every part of her went on pause while her thoughts slowly caught up. Mr Andrews saw the shock register on his daughter's face before she could hide it. A small smile played on his lips.That was a moment where China's face washed blank with confusion, like her brain cogs could not turn fast enough to take in the information from her wide eyes. Every muscle of her body just froze."Are you not happy to see your dear daddy?" Mr Andrews asked.Mrs Shay sprung to her feet to meet Mr Andrews where he was standing and she was wearing one of her brightest and prettiest smiles."Good day to you sir, China didn't tell me her father would be com
The hidden heir of Wayne Fifty-eight: The death of Elvis explained
Minutes before officer Redd got a call.The evening sky was calm and settled, even though it was empty of the moon that evening, the stars that were twinkling in the sky still made it look beautiful.Alfred and Tara were standing outside the police station next to each other. So many times as they tried to hail a taxi but failed, Alfred would want to try to bring up the conversation of her returning to the Graham's residence and how unsafe it was but he would also swallow his words back just like a pill because he knew she would not give in to his words."Mr Alfred," Tara called out to him.He turned around and fixed his gaze on her. "Yes Miss Tara?" "I know you are very worried about me but I want to assure you that I am very skilled in not getting caught and I will be sure to make use of that skill to save myself." She assured him with a smile on her face.Alfred couldn't help but to smile. "I guess master... I guess Ivan and I will have to hold you to your words." She nodded silen

"Time of death, ten thirty post midnight, name of patient, Elvis Kennedy, cause of death, suicide by slitting his own wrist..."Mr Elvis' personal nurse recited his death statement out loud as tears welled up in her eyes. She would pause to blink back her tears and take a moment to breathe then continue."No, no, no!!!" Bianca exclaimed as she collapsed to the ground with her hands on her hair, almost pulling them out of their roots.His twelve year old son just stared firstly at his mother who was having a mental breakdown then at the lifeless pale looking body that laid on the bed that supposedly belonged to his father.What was going on? He asked himself, is that my daddy? Why is mom crying?Bianca was worried sick...Just a few days back, she was watching the news when she happened to come across the news channel. She decided to listen to what was new and the happenings in the city when she saw the news of a young handsome boy that was hit and the culprit being her husband.She d

The Graham's residence was silent..."How long has that girl been gone?" Mr Graham asked."She has been gone all evening! Don't you find this very very suspicious? She didn't call Charlie or anything and she is not back yet, do you think she will actually come back if it is not that she heard something?" Mrs Graham threw the question to the table."Can we please not make any assumptions yet?" Charlie said.She rose to her feet while staring at Charlie. "Just because you love her doesn't mean that she feels the same way too. Didn't you say it yourself that she likes that useless good for nothing kid? Do you really think she would not take advantage of you to prove herself and her love for that kid?" Mrs Graham's voice was starting to rise in anger. She was a woman who always liked things to go smoothly for her and sometimes... Most times, Charlie messed things up for her because of the little part in his heart that was good. Charlie opened his mouth to speak but found no words to co
The hidden heir of Wayne Sixty-one: Heart of greed and wicked
The sound of the water splashing against the floor and wall suddenly came to a halt and so did Tara's footsteps. She stood still like a statue, questions began floating around in her mind and she felt like her senses were coming back.Had she not come too far to lose it all? She gave up on her first love, her happiness, the guy that brought a smile to her face, she gave up on Ivan.All for what? To get physically and sexually abused by that spoiled brat, Charlie? No, if you put it down like that then it made her feel like a fool. So she asked herself again.Why did you give up on the man that even just a glimpse of him forced your lips into a smile? That was when she finally found the right answer.It was all for money. The Graham's were on the top ten list of wealthy families in England and a greedy young woman like her would have loved to be married to the Wayne family that had been sitting on number one in not only England but in most other countries of the world and possibly, th
The hidden heir of Wayne Sixty-two: Broken hearts
The room was empty aside from China's thoughts that lingered around in the room. Out of boredom, she made a decision to call Mia, her new best friend to help keep her company over the phone.China's roommate walked in and called out to her, "China, hey." "Yeah?" China responded."You have a visitor." Her roommate said."Oh Okay. I'll call you back Mia." China said before hanging up.She turned to face her roommate, "who is it?" China asked."I think it's best if you find out for yourself." She looked at her roommate confusedly, what was that look in her eyes and that tone in her voice? She turned towards the entrance of her bedroom to step out and receive the visitor when the door pushed open, making her take a few steps backwards.Her eyes widened as she stared at the August visitor that was standing right in front of her at the entrance of the room."Long time no see, my little Angel." Mr Andrews said with a slightly noticeable smile on his face.China felt like her feet were glu
The hidden heir of Wayne Sixty-three: Sex in the kitchen
Anxiety and fear poured down her back like a pail of water. It was a man's voice so it definitely could not be China. What should she do?She thought to herself; should I call nine one one just in case?She then decided to dial the number and keep her finger on the call button before opening the door.After a few calming breaths, she placed her hand on the door knob and twisted it open. Slowly and carefully. She decided to open it halfway and take a peak.As she tilted her head to the side, so did the young man that was standing at the entrance. "Hello." He said as he beamed at her, revealing his perfect set of teeth.She stared at the strange yet somehow familiar man that was standing at her door step through squinted eyes. She asked herself these questions; who is this man and why is he strangely familiar?Not just one feature made him so handsome, the unique colors of his eyes often made people speak of the color of eyes.That was not the first time Mia had seen those unique sets
The hidden heir of Wayne Sixty-four: Those darn eyes
What the hell was she thinking? Having sex with him the first time they met in person, it was not even like they were dating. He was the young man that was helplessly in love while she was the beautiful young lady that was adamant on her decision.Was it because of those darn eyes? Perhaps they possessed the ability to make a woman fall so foolishly. She kept stabbing at her food as the thought of what she had just done wandered in her mind. This act couldn't go unnoticed by her roommate slash best friend, China."Spill it already and kill the suspense." China said without taking her eyes off her food."Huh?" Mia asked."I know something is bothering your mind, is it Ivan?" China questioned."No... Well I guess I can't say no because Ivan bothers my mind every single day but..." "He isn't the reason for today's brooding. Instead of waiting for you to tell me, let me ask you instead." She dropped her fork onto her plate and took out a golden necklace with an eagle shaped pendant and

Two hundred and ten: Happily ever after
The man explained how his mother told them their deaths had been decided by the Andrews. When Ivan's real father found out about this, he told his wife to stay away on the day of his accident and protect his child while he remained in the car with a maid who agreed to sacrifice herself for the safety of her boss. They didn't want to drag anyone down with them but the woman insisted. So their enemies would be convinced and Ivan would be safe. “I can't believe this…” Ivan muttered to himself. Even Alfred was a little shaken by the story. He didn't know why they didn't include him in the plan, maybe because they knew he would never let them go ahead with it. He held back the urge to cry. Ivan felt like he was broken to pieces. “My mother…” he said softly and all eyes fell on him. “Where is she now? Do you know where she is?” His father seemed hesitant but nodded his head. “She attended your step mother's funeral to show her last respect. She came around sometimes just to check on yo

Two hundred and nine: His mother's location
Mr Shay felt grateful as his plane finally landed. He was never a man who enjoyed flights, he preferred to travel by road for a trip or even by water which he extremely detested. But he would be more than happy to travel by water than to ever step foot in a plane. Without wasting time, he hurried out of the plane with the maids assigned to him. They all helped him with his bags and loads as they walked into the airport. He noticed his son standing not too far from him, waiting for his arrival. He had not expected his son to be around for his arrival since Ivan said he had a white collar job. But he was very pleased to see him after his long trip. His lips spread into a wide smile as he walked towards his son. “Ivan, my dear boy!” He called out to him. Several men moved closer to Ivan at once in a defensive way and Mr Shay froze in his steps. Why was his son being guarded like some national treasure?“It's okay, he's my dad.” Ivan said to them and they backed away with each of th

Two hundred and eight: The airport
Ivan dressed up and went down for breakfast. On arriving at the dining table, LD was dressed up all nice and cutely and she wore a big smile on her face.She was dressed in a cute pink dress and her Goldie locks hair was made into two ponytails. Of all the beautiful accessories on her, her smile was the most beautiful. She was so beautiful that Ivan couldn't help the smile that worked up his face. “Well look at my beautiful girl,” he said as he picked her up from the ground and gave her a twirl.Her happy giggles filled the room and magically lifted the spirits of everyone sitting at the table. Truly, nothing could make a person more happy than a child's laughter. He placed her back on the floor and kissed her head. “You look amazing.”“Mommy says she wants me to look beautiful when my new baby brother or sister comes home. Can I have a baby brother?” LD asked with a bright smile on her face. The smile on Ivan's face disappeared in almost an instant. He flashed a smile at his daug

Two hundred and seven: Morning breakdown
The sun rose in the blue sky and spread its ray down on Ivan's face. Anticipation had kept him awake all night long, all he could do was think about his dad and his return that day. When his dad returned, he would really get answers about everything he wanted to know. Well hopefully that was. Would his dad really remember much? It had been decades ago, would his memory still be intact? That much worried him and kept him awake all night. His mother was gone and sadly before he could ask or even tell her anything. Not even a final goodbye. The memories of his mother lying lifelessly in her bed was to hunt him for a very long time. He never even knew when she was already falling sick, she seemed so healthy that he didn't even believe it at first when he found her in her bed. Oddly strange of her to ask a married man to pass the night at his mother's, that was what he believed but he went anyway. Those were the moments he would cherish forever. No wonder she hugged him so much that

Two hundred and six: Early flight back
They all went inside and sat at the dining table. The maids surrounded them and began serving slices of pies. LD climbed down from her seat that was next to her grandmother. “Daddy!” She wailed as she hurried to Ivan. Ivan immediately caught her in his arms and lifted her into his lap. “What's wrong? Is there something bothering you?” She nodded her head but said nothing. They all watched her in fear. Neither of them understood what was wrong with her to make her almost tear up and worry and anxiety swallowed them up as they waited for her to confess to her father. “Go ahead Darling, you can tell me anything.” Ivan said in a soft tone. Janet was already on her feet and she hurried to the other side of Ivan's chair where she could meet with LD's gaze. Placing her hand on her husband's thighs, she crouched down next to him. LD still remained silent in her father's lap with her arms wrapped around his neck.“Here, come on, whisper it in my ear.” Ivan leaned in closer to her with h

Two hundred and five: Her Majesty
The car pulled up at the front space of the mansion and their driver hurried down to open the door for them. Three smiling faces stood close to a fountain, standing impatiently for Ivan and his wife to arrive. The driver opened the door but no one got out. Alfred wondered what was keeping them but he declined when Mrs Banks said to go to them instead. He decided they would just wait for them to join them. “We'll be a minute.” Ivan said to his driver and the handsome young man nodded his head and gently slammed the door back. “Is there… is there a problem?” Mrs Banks asked again but Alfred's decision to wait behind still stood. “They'll come out eventually, let's just wait and see what is going on first.” Alfred responded in a respectful manner and Mrs Banks nodded her head. Mr Banks didn't bother to protest or even utter a word. He knew that if he were to speak, he would have to break his perfect smile and he worried he would not be able to get a smile as perfect as that again.

Two hundred and four: His own happy ending plan
Heather stood there, stunned, just as every other woman standing in the room. She was sure she had never heard London laugh before. She hadn't even seen the girl smile ever since she was brought to the shelter. Janet hadn't expected less though. Living with Ivan for over five years, she knew the kind of soul he was and she trusted that whatever he put his mind to, he was sure to achieve it. She couldn't have been more proud of him. Ivan carried little London back to his wife and Heather. “London, say hello to your new mom.” Janet smiled and waved at her. “Hello, my name is Janet.” “Hi, I can call you mom, right? Or do you want me to call you Janet?” London sharply responded with a smile. Janet chuckled softly. “You're such a smart little girl. You can call me mom,” she reached forward and gently smoothened London's Goldie locks hair. “I'd like that.” London smiled and nodded her head. “Will you carry me in your arms?” Janet opened her arms wide for her. “Come here.”London unw

Two hundred and three: London
Ivan managed to wear a smile on his face even though his heart was shattered to pieces. “Hello there, my name is Ivan.” He said with the brightest smile he could summon. “Do you want to tell me your name?”She silently stared at him, although it seemed as though she wasn't as scared as before. Yet she didn't utter a single word and neither did her gaze leave Ivan. “You don't have to tell me if you don't want to. I don't force you to do anything you don't want to do. Although I would really like to know your name. I bet it must be as pretty as your eyes.” Ivan spoke softly. Even though he already knew what her name was, he was hoping to hear her say it to him. “London…” the scared little girl responded softly, almost as soft as a whisper. Ivan smiled brightly from his heart now, a smile that reached his eyes. “I knew it, I knew it would be something pretty. Do you remember my name, London?” She nodded her head, her knees folded in front of her to rest on her chest. “Do you want t

Two hundred and two: At the orphanage
Breakfast was served the next morning and as Ivan had mentioned, they had small talks about the best choice of orphanage to go to and the list had been summed up to the best three. “Okay,” Alfred started. “So we are down to smile orphanage, bright sun and victorious home. And the decision is down to you, young master Wayne. Which one would you like to go to today?” Ivan relaxed into his seat and let himself think for a minute before answering. “I got it!” All eyes fell on him as he exclaimed. “Today, well go to bright sun orphanage,”“Excellent choice young master Way–”“I'm not finished.” Ivan cut Alfred off. “Today, we'll go to bright sun orphanage, tomorrow, we'll go to smile and the day after, we'll go to victorious home.” Alfred was thrown into a pit of confusion. “You… you want to visit all three places?” His brow arched subconsciously as he questioned. “Why not? Jane wants to adopt three kids after all, nothing limits us to adopting from one place or is there a rule or some
