REGRET“Samantha, why don't you move back in with us tonight, your brother and sister-in-law have missed you a lot and your room is been vacant for a long it's so ready for you now just think about how much trouble having you in this small place where you will have to take turns to use the toilet with your friend and this loser you can't live with someone else your whole life” Brenda forcibly pestered her daughter, Samantha had thought the same thing. Catherine had a boyfriend but ever since she had been staying there with her husband she had never once let her boyfriend visit her so in the end Samantha agreed.“ Fine, I will come home and live with you,” she said.Brain didn't care because he would go wherever Samantha went.On their way back to their parent's house, Samantha sat in the taxi looking miserable and saying nothing Brian tried to comfort her. “Samantha, let me tell you a joke there was a….” please don't say anything” She was worried about how she would face her brother

THE PLOTThomas, how could you say something like that? Hurry up and apologize to your sister right now” said Gary Thomas didn't think he had done anything wrong so he argued “Dad why should I apologize for what she did? Since Mr Collins and even Jeffery think so highly of her she can just divorce Brian instead, don't you wanna have a better life and a luxurious apartment?”.Brian only stood and didn't utter a single word since he already found out about their utterly ridiculous plan.“If James knew that those he thought so highly of were a good friend of the person he called a loser? He would definitely die of shame” Brian thought.“Thomas you're done for! I shouldn't have come back, I can see now that it was just a ploy to get me to buy you a house and a car”. Brenda burst into tears, without looking at her mother’s tears Samantha continued “Let me tell you something, both Mr Collins and Jeffery and other important people you think you know are all Brian’s friends and I only got th

THE MEETING.At noon Samantha arrived at the agreed meeting place with her personal assistance and a few core members of the company Alexander said “I've long heard that you are a great beauty but seeing you today, I can say that you deserve your reputation”.Even though it sounded nice, Samantha thought that what he said was highly inappropriate in a business situation but for the sake of the negotiation, she decided to let it go.“Thank you Mr. Alex” she responded and then they both shook hands.Although Alex was in a state of turmoil, he still appeared calm.He was under orders from Duke and he knew how dangerous he was if things didn't go according to plan.Duke had deliberately sent him to samantha.At first, they had a pleasant conversation, however, it wasn't long before the two of them disagreed.“Mr. Alex, I don't understand, seventy percent of this project will go to your company while my company will only receive thirty percent I'm afraid that won't be good enough”.

BiddingAlex was shocked, he couldn't have looked more surprised if his assistant had told him the sky was falling “Let's talk outside!”. He grabbed the assistant arm, dragged him rudely out of the conference room, and yanked open the door of the room across the hall where several employees were eating lunch.“Get out!” he said in a tone that brought no argument when the room had cleared. Alex turned to his assistant and asked, “Someone is outbidding me?” Who would do such a thing? If I find out it's one of my associates I'm going to make fish food out of them!“I don't know who is doing it,” the assistant said “ but it's true, no matter how much we pay the other parties offer ten thousand more”.Alex thumped the wall “Someone is playing with us” he growled “Ten thousand bidding is nothing, they're trying to humiliate us, offer more!”“ How much more sir?”“I don't care how ever much it takes, there has to be a limit to what someone else is willing to pay for this company” he shoved

The huntSeeing what was happening, Brian got up and quickly left the room, and as soon as he was gone, Samantha opened her eyes.She had been sleeping but Brenda’s loud voice had woken her “The person in my dreams was Brian and the lullaby was the same” she realized.The following day Brian had just finished cooking breakfast and was about to wake Samantha when walked into the kitchen, he was stunned to see her smiling and had her hair pinned back most attractively but what surprised him the most was that she was humming a melody that suspiciously sounded like a lullaby, like the lullaby he had hummed to her a night before.“Shouldn't she be angry this morning?” he wondered “Did she lose her memory of what happened yesterday or what”.She saw him looking at her “What are you looking at?” she asked, but her tone was rather more playful than offensive “You never called me down for supper last night” she asked “Ummm I figured I needed to help you with your diet” Brian muttered.“What!”

THE SAVE There is a man in a hat at 5 o'clock heading east towards Brian’s direction, stone has found his target.Alex had watched the man looking at him move to the east end, he had hung back waiting till they had all moved and hoping to get lost in the chaos.He hadn't realized that brian had faked him out and used the gang members to his advantage. Stone slipped through the crowd, caught up to Alex, and grabbed his shoulder. Alex's world around “Stone” he exclaimed “I'm sorry but you won't be able to escape,” Stone said.He snagged Alex's collar and pushed him over the edge of the walkway Alex screamed in protest “If you let me go now, I will give you ten million” Alex said “Besides what do you think will happen if you catch me now? Do you really think you can deal with the heat from Duke?”“I don't think you have any idea the fire you are dealing with but still I think you stand a better chance with us than you do with Duke” Stone replied.“I have to get on that ship and away f

The secret “That's where you are wrong” brian replied “I have no intention of fighting Duke, I would be a fool to fight him head on, I wouldn't put the gang members in danger just like that”.“Then how are you going to beat him? You're not thinking of taking him on publicly, are you? In a corporate world,” Alex laughed “Do you know who he is and how many assets he controls? That's an even more hopeless situation”.“Haven't you figured it out yet?” stone interjected “Why do you think we came to your rescue”“Stone, you’re overestimating me I don't know all the workings of Duke’s empire, even Javis Hilston didn't know all about it” Stone was so shocked that he nearly let go of the steering wheel, everyone in their line of work knew Javis Hilston’s name a few years ago he had been an unstoppable force in San Clemente and every gang member assumed he would eventually become the big boss in the city he just and then he just disappeared.Rumors ran rampant but no one knew the truth of whe

THE HUMILIATION Let's not talk about this anymore, we don't wanna ruin our meal.Forty minutes later Catherine pulled up in front of one of San Clemente’s most exclusive restaurants “Common” she said “I’ve heard this place is amazing, we’ll take a group picture later to prove we are here” The street outside the restaurant was full of people taking pictures and on the inside, the restaurant was even more crowded Catherine looked around at the full tables “Samatha, we won't lose our seats will we?” she said loudly“Don't worry we still have five minutes to make our reservation” samantha replied.Catherine signed with relief she had chosen the restaurant but samantha had initially offered her the invitation as a thank-you for letting them stay at her house.” It only right that we take her out for a nice dinner” samantha thought, she pulled out her phone to check the online reservation “ they’ve saved table 47 for us so let's just find it” she said They walked around the corridor, and

JELOUSYRoss shoved him aside. “You want me to give you another chance? “If I keep providing protection for you and your store, how am I going to explain that to Mr. Maxwell when he finds out? it's best for you to just shut the whole store down at this point, otherwise, next time He comes here, he's going to be offended that you're still here, and then you don't want to offend Mr. Maxwell”. He said to the manager. “I'd laugh if anyone else said that. But if it's what Ross thinks is best that would only mean I'm done for it wasn't easy to get to this point. I thought with Ross providing protection, I could do whatever I wanted. I never thought I would offend someone that even Ross is afraid of”. Ross just looked down at him, “Let me give you one last piece of advice”. He said, “try to be a good person from now on if you know what is good for you”After leaving them all, Laura was in no mood to continue their day out, so she and Brian got in the car to head home.Laura was clearly p

THE MANAGERBrian tilted his head thoughtfully “Ross? he asked.“you're not talking about Ross Gilmore, are you? the same guy I had a little chat with yesterday” he thought.“I think I left quite an impression on him”.“ you know Ross Gilmore?” the manager asked. “You could say that” the manager was surprised but then he saw Laura’s panicked expression clearly showed she had also heard of Ross or at least she knew of his reputation.“that's right,” he said “My shop is under Ross Gilmore’s protection so if you two both get down on your knees and beg for mercy I’ll consider asking for less compensation, otherwise you'll have to beg Ross for mercy” “and at this point, the compensation is the secondary”. he thought. just look how pretty that girl is, Ross, is going to be very happy when he sees her”. many people in the crowd had also heard of Ross and his reputation as a local thug they were not surprised that someone as Petty and nasty as the owner of this store had someone as vici

CHAOS Brian smiled at her but did not comment.The shop manager returned in short order with a Gray scarf draped across his arms. “Go on, Brian, Laura said. “Try it on and see what you think”.She lifted her hand, but the manager turned and held the scarf out of reach. “What?” She asked. “ Aren't you going to let us see it before we buy it?” The manager replied. “You've already seen and handled the other one.Isn't that enough?Except for the color, the two scarves are identical. Come up to the register and I'll get you checked out”.He smiled arrogantly. “They Caused the most trouble”, he thought. “They really need to put their grubby hands all over a genuine branded cashmere scarf.The rich ladies who come in here just point at what they want, pay the bill and leave without any fuss”. Laura's eyes flashed with anger. “Is that how you do business?” She asked. “If you don't try on clothing.How will you know if you like it or not?Maybe we won't like the feel of it.But we won't know until

OUTBURST Laura looked up from her plate of eggs and watched her sister confused. She glanced at Brian, who shrug. “I don't know exactly what's bothering her, but I can guess” he thought. “But I don't wanna talk to Laura about the whole situation with Brandy.That's too much to get into this morning”. “Hey, sis.Did you forget that Brian and I were going out for a fun day today? You should come along.Change your clothes. I'm gonna leave right after breakfast”. “No thanks”, Samantha replied. “I have some important things I need to get done today|”. “Is there anything more?Important than.Quality family time”.Samantha stood up. “You've got Brian, you don't need me”. She left the kitchen.And they heard her bedroom door closed a few seconds later. Gary Wandered into the kitchen, still half asleep.He looked from Laura to Brian. “Where's Samantha?” He asked. “I thought I heard her voice”. “Well, she's not here”, Laura said. “She's having a hissy fit or something”. “Come on Brian, let's

STILL IN LOVE“I'm glad to hear it”, said Brian. “If you'll excuse me”.With that, he walked over to the backstage door. He was determined to see Brandy, and Ross had held him up long enough.He could hear the sound of television through her door, it sounded like a cartoon and you could hear her laughing loudly at it. He Knocked several times before she heard him. “Come in, She shouted once she finally heard his knocking. “Ohh, it's you. Hello”.She walked over and gave him a huge bear hug.She squeezed him so hard he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said eventually. “Are you trying to kill me?” It took him a moment or two to disentangle himself from her grip.“You never change, do you?” He said, his words full of affection.He always spoke to her with the affection of an older brother talking to his favorite sister. Annoyed, Brandy pounded him on the chest.Always hoped that Brandy would stay as innocent as a child, but that was never going to be the case.Uncle Sam had already to

BRIANAs he realized that Brian had seen right through him, anger began to take over.He had a powerful urge to kill him.The slower and more painful death, the better.However, that was something that would have to wait.Murdering Brandy Hall's friend in a busy bar wouldn't win him any popularity contests. It was a plan he would have to save for another day. “Don't be so quick to criticize me”, he said. “You may have gotten away with it this evening, but I will get my revenge on you soon”.“I wouldn't be so sure about that”, said Brian.“But I can be sure”, said Ross, a smile starting to appear on his face. “I have a Big Brother and plenty of friends to help me.Next time you might not find the bartender quite so helpful”.“You're going to hide behind your Big Brother?” Asked Brian. “Why is he someone special?”The door to the bar opened.A man walked in.Ross smiled. his Big Brother had just walked in and his timing couldn't have been better.The man saw Ross and walked over.Ross began to s

THROW HIM OUTRoss was surprised that the bartender knew him, but he certainly wasn't complaining.He knew they had backup when it came to making Brian's life even more miserable than he had hoped. “He's the scruffy man over there”, he said, pointing to Brian's back. “He's trying to go backstage to see Brandy, which surely is a serious offense.My advice is that you have him evicted immediately”. “Well, we could always ask Brandy what she thinks”, said the bartender. “After all, she's the star performer.It's only fair that she should decide if she wants a visitor”.Ross was not impressed it wasn't the answer he had wanted to hear. “However”, continued the bartender, winking at Ross. “If she doesn't want any company, young Rossier gets to decide what to do with the unwanted visitor”.Everyone in the room held their breath, listening very carefully. “What's the punishment?” Ross asked one.Ross smiled. He made a choking gesture to the crowd, much to their delight.A huge cheer went up, sig

CODY’S BAR“Don't worry, maybe Brian will come with me”, said Lynn.Samantha looked at her. “Since when have they had such a good relationship?” She thought.But she didn't bother to ask Laura directly.“What's happening tomorrow?” She asked instead.“I thought you were busy”, said Laura. “But seeing as you're asking, it's a social event organized by the college. I thought you might have wanted to come with me”.She sighed.“If you're busy, I'll ask Brian. he won't mind coming with me. he'll make sure I'm OK”.It's sorted Laura, Take Brian”. Being her brother-in-law, she could go out with him without arousing suspicion.Samantha looked at her suspiciously, not convinced that Brian could keep her sister safe.In her mind, it was almost funny.Much more importantly, she was sure they were keeping something from her.Pretending that nothing was worrying her, she decided to go too, despite the pressures of her job. “I think I'll come too”, she said. “It'll be good to have a break from work”.Sh

UNEXPECTED His friends started to laugh mercilessly.By that time, Samantha was in earshot.When she heard laughter, she relaxed, thinking they had already resolved their differences and made-up.Deciding not to get involved, she stayed out of sight around the corner and listen.Has she gone around the corner, she would have realized that she had gotten it drastically wrong. Brian and Ross were staring at each other. Neither had any intention of backing down.Ross threw his cigarette butts on the ground and stepped on it. “I've had enough of your nonsense. It's time I taught you a lesson.Lesson”. Brian repeated questioningly. “A student?,I don't need to be taught a lesson.I think you've got it the wrong way around”. With that, he stepped forward and landed a blow in Ross' stomach”.Ross doubled up, completely taken aback by the punch.As he struggled to catch his breath, he couldn't believe such an unassuming looking man could be so strong. Started to feel nauseated and his vision st
