The hidden heir of Wayne Thirty-five: Letting go of her
The sound of the four wheeler's as they were driving by echoed in Mia's head, the sound of their blaring horns and the screeching of their tires. Everything suddenly became silent except for the loud and unsteady beating of Mia's heart. "Are you okay?" Ivan asked as he took a step closer to her.She staggered back a little, almost tripping to the ground. Thanks to Ivan's quick reflexes, he caught her by the waist and held her. "Mia? Can you hear me? Please relax!" Ivan said to her. She stared blankly at him as tears began falling from her eyes. Loud high pitched ringing echoed in her head as she stared at him, she couldn't hear a word he was saying. "Alfred, what happened to her? Is Mia's mom alright? We have to go back to check on her." Ivan said to Alfred. He was so scared and worried for Mia that he couldn't hide it."We can't go back but--""What do you mean?" Ivan snapped."But, hear me out young master. We can't get back together, not all of us, only Mia has to go back on he
The hidden heir of Wayne Thirty-six: New boss
The Brad Pitt look alike walked in with a satisfied smile on his face as he sighted Ivan. "Oh I'm sorry, I didn't mean to disturb something nice." He said before he began chuckling. Standing next to him were a few men who were dressed all in black suits. Taking a few steps closer to Ivan's bed, he leaned in closer to him just to make sure he didn't have the wrong guy. "Yup, it's you alright." "Who are you and what do you want?" Ivan exclaimed as he felt fear engulf him entirely."Young master of Wayne's cooperation, it feels good to finally find you, you know I have been searching for you for two decades, this makes me so curious to find out where you were and what you were doing." He stated whilst standing akimbo.The girl with Ivan shifted her gaze to him, shock evident in her brown eyes as she stared at him. "You-- you are the young master Wayne?" She pushed the words out of her mouth. "No, does that make any sense to you?" He responded sharply. "I am not the man you are looking
The hidden heir of Wayne Thirty-seven: Bugged Villa
"What did you just say?" Alfred jolted to his feet, his eyes widened in utmost surprise."We were together in his room just drinking some whiskey and chilling and then some dudes walked in and they were calling him the missing piece and the lost heir." The girl that was with Ivan explained."The missing piece? Where did they take him to? Where did they go? What happened?" Alfred worriedly asked."I don't know, i-- I really don't know where they took him too. Is he really the missing piece? I mean the lost heir? Is it really him?" She asked inquisitively."Of course not! He is someone close to me but not the son of the Wayne, they have taken the wrong guy!" Alfred exclaimed."What are we going to do?" "I think I know who is behind this." Alfred frowned. ★★★A smile crept on his face as he went to give Mia's mom a hug. "I was so worried about you!" "Oh Young, I mean..." She noticed China standing close to them. "I am just so happy to see you too!" She hugged him back. "Did you come a

The hidden heir of Wayne Thirty-nine: Bargaining with the devil
The sun crept in through the curtain that was slightly opened, caressing Ivan's face and he tossed around in his bed. He groaned as his head suddenly began aching as a result of the too much alcohol he drank the night before. "Oh damn..." He muttered to himself as he gently rubbed his aching forehead. "Arghh... Hangovers are the worst!" He groaned as he laid on his tummy. "Knock knock knock!" A masculine voice called out as he knocked on the door."Who is it? Go away please..." Ivan muttered with his eyes closed. The click of the door as it opened caused Ivan's ear to prick but he still refused to open his eyes. "Rise and shine young master Wayne!" Alfred exclaimed excitedly with a bright smile on his face as he walked in with a golden tray on top sat a little golden mug with greenish liquid inside. He closed the door behind him and started towards Ivan's bed."I said to go away... Please." Ivan repeated, still with his eyes closed."I knew you would be in such a messed up state so
The hidden heir of Wayne Forty: The death of an innocent
The phone kept ringing but the call didn't go through, Ivan decided not to call anymore after three tries. "She is probably busy." He muttered to himself. "She will call me back after seeing this." He told himself. He threw the blanket off himself and climbed down the bed, his face scrunched as his head still ached. Picking up the golden cup, he drank the rest of its content and sighed then dropped the cup back on his table. Curiosity they say kills the cat, some people would be found dead for a reason nobody knew and no one would even know of their existence until they were found dead. The very maid that scrolled through Ivan's phone had lost her life due to her curiosity. Lying lifelessly in the middle of the street was her body, discovered early that very morning.

With the anger coursing through his veins, Ivan began heading for the door."Mr Wayne? Is everything alright?" Officer Wade questioned. "Mr Wayne? Young master Wayne!" Alfred called out.Ivan was defended by the anger he was feeling, he let his emotions get the best of him. He stepped out of the officer's office and took a few steps away from the entire police station building. Taking out his phone from his pocket, he dialed out Mr Andrews' number and waited impatiently as it rang in his ears.***Mr Andrews heaved a relaxed sigh as he sunk himself inside a swimming pool. Picking up the glass of cocktail next to him, he took a sip from it and heaved yet another sigh.The sound of high heels as it approached Mr Andrews caught his attention and a sexy looking lady in a bikini stopped right next to him. "Mr Andrews, you have a call." She stretched out her hand to give him his phone."Answer it." He said to her.She picked the call and placed the phone close to Mr Andrews face after put
The hidden heir of Wayne Forty-two: Happy breakfast
Booking a flight for their next trip wasn't much of a hassle for Alfred. As he returned home, he carefully packed his things into his bag but he found it hard to concentrate, things haven't been the same since the whole issue with Mabel's death and Ivan's kidnapping and he didn't know if he was ready to open up to him just yet. He hadn't told him what really happened at Mr Andrews place yet and curiosity was eating Alfred up from the inside but from all his years of working with the Wayne family, he had learnt to have patience and not intrude until he was called upon.A sigh escaped his mouth. "I hope he is doing okay..." The door to his room door pushed open and Ivan walked in. "Hey! Our flight leaves when?" "Young master, our flight leaves in the next two hours." Alfred responded, his face lit up, there was a smile in his eyes. He was very happy to see Ivan."Do you think two hours is enough time for us to have a very long and complicated conversation?" Ivan asked, he was still s

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
