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
The hidden heir of Wayne Sixty-five: Childhood friends
It was a very snowy afternoon that day and it was only a few days to Christmas. A lot of people had begun preparing for the blissful holiday, they bought their trees and presents and lights. Some of the neighboring kids took it upon themselves to decorate the streets by building snow men. Truly, the Christmas spirit was alive. China was only nine then, she had anticipated the holidays and her rich parents had promised her numerous gifts if she came out with good grades from school.As always, she was the top student in the class, she wowed the teachers with her brilliance once more. Few days to Christmas, of course she ought to be rejoicing as several gifts were promised for her outstanding behavior but instead, she was sitting on the couch in the living room, sulking. Mr and Mrs Andrews, of course, as always were busy with business stuff and they had gone on a trip which they promised her they would return on the twenty first but it was already twenty third. Their family nanny
The hidden heir of Wayne Sixty-six: Unhealthy circumstances
The two had been brought together by fate, only to be drawn apart by circumstances. Never did China think, not even once that the person they suspect, the family is the family of the Graham's and their number one enemy was her first love, Charlie."China, why are you spewing such words that you and I both know you don't mean?" Charlie asked with a confused look on his face."I mean every single word that I am saying!" She exclaimed angrily."Is this about me not coming to find you as well? Believe me or not, I tried! I did search for you! I didn't give up and I still haven't! I only learnt about you cutting ties with your parents recently and I knew it would be harder to find you." Charlie explained to her."That is not the reason! Okay?!" "Then why are you mad at me? Why are you raising your voice at me if it isn't because of what happened?""Do you know a guy named Ivan?" She asked him."Ivan..." He muttered to himself. "What does that bag of trash have to do with this?!" He exclai
The hidden heir of Wayne Sixty-seven: A miracle
Charlie paced about in the living room while Tara just watched him. She was trying her best to stay calm but her curiosity forced the anger in her into an outburst. "Will you stop pacing about already?! You're making me dizzy from watching you!" She exclaimed. Charlie paused, he titled his head to the side and gave her a side glance. She blinked repeatedly while looking in another direction. Apparently her voice was louder than she intended. "I just... I am just worried about you! That's all! Can't I be worried about you?" She questioned as she crossed her arms below her breast. He let out a sigh with his eyes closed. "Even if I were to explain it to you, you wouldn't be able to understand it." "How sure are you? Have you ever heard that I found a situation difficult to understand? You know of my level of IQ, my intelligence is well over almost everyone's." "Not Ivan's, he is the smartest kid in the entire school." Charlie said.Tara fell silent and bowed her head to the ground
The hidden heir of Wayne Sixty-eight: MV3 virus
The night before...The room was empty and motionless. There wasn't a single sound except for the continuous beeping of the monitor in the room that proved Ivan was still alive. China sat down next to Ivan's bed, just staring at him as he slept so peacefully. She moved her hand to his hair and pulled a strand away from his face. He had been asleep for so long that his hair had gotten longer but he still looked very beautiful. The peaceful expression on his face suddenly disappeared and his face scrunched up like he was in pain. China was confused, was he perhaps having a bad dream? They did say people who were in a coma were capable of dreaming. He suddenly grabbed onto her hand and squeezed it."Ivan? Ivan? Are you awake? What's going on with you?!" She exclaimed. She was beginning to get scared and confused. His eyes were still shut tightly but his grip on her hand grew tighter and tighter.The heart monitor began to beep abnormally, his heart rate was very abnormal. "Doctor
The hidden heir of Wayne Sixty-nine: Taking risk
"What is this virus in question?" Ivan asked one of the nurses that drew his blood sample."The MV3 virus is a very complex virus that was discovered in the rural parts of the city. Apparently it comes from a certain bacteria we have never seen before and the first person to contract this got it from drinking contaminated water."The water from that part seems to be lurking with these bacteria but thankfully the water doesn't travel very far."The scientists are trying to find their origin and what can kill them but nothing for now. I can't really explain it in terms that you would understand but to make it simple... It is deadlier than corona virus and Ebola." She said through her nose mask."What the fuck? Is there a cure?" "We don't know. The few people who have contacted it are currently being studied while in isolation. So far, we haven't lost anyone but we don't know what might happen next." "Please I need you to find a cure for this as fast as possible. I have someone who cur
The hidden heir of Wayne Seventy: Secret investigation
The room was silent except for the sound of Ivan's heartbeat that echoed through his head. His only love had moved on because of his accident. Everyone else had probably moved on, a lot had changed and even his course mates were in their final year in the university.What he had tried to protect so much was taken away from his hands and all he did was sleep through it.Their lips slowly separated as they slowly moved apart. Mia caressed his face softly while breathing him in. He didn't bother to move away, she probably wanted to savor him and their last moment together which he did as well. "I know I couldn't say this back then and this was what caused us to fall apart but... It is really coming late but... I love you, Ivan, and I'm sorry I couldn't say it back then." Mia muttered to him.His eyes remained closed as his lips relaxed into a smile. The door suddenly pushed open and Mia's eyes widened when she saw China standing at the door with the assistance of a nurse and doctor W

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
