Mr Hunter directed his gaze to Joshua and like flies, every one of the patriarch's gazes too followed him.

"And my son." Mr Hunter concluded.

They still anticipated that Jerome was known to always turn down his father, they couldn't be expecting him. But what was with the son? The latter and last sentence caught them thinking a lot.

''He is not referring to that loser is he?'' Brandon said.

''What is wrong with you, how could you have thoughts that are that ridiculous,'' Sylvester said to his friend.

There is no one there, Mr Mason shouted from his end.

''Were here as guests, and how can we groof this good for nothing son in law of mine would be of any assistance to you? Son? There might be some mistake here, Mr Hunter, are you tricking us or seeing us as short-sighted? "

"That's not possible, is it? " Mr Benedict chimed in.

Mr Hunter had thought about it on several occasions, but exposing Joshua wouldn't be of any assistance either; it's better he just shrugs it off and keeps th

    "What is going on here? " Mr Hunter questioned. "Yes that is true this man here had another son, I have been having my suspicions for a very long time now," Jerome said walking closer towards them, "Jerome stop!" His father shouted in a command that echoed through the walls of the room. They went out of the crowd into their chamber. It was there Mr Hunter slapped his son again for the false claims. "There just be some misunderstanding here," 'Hunter my father? This was unbelievable, I couldn't picture myself in yet another scandal.' Joshua thought. "Jerome, apologize." Mr Hunter demanded and everyone gapped. "I can't figure out myself doing that." Joshua looking down blinked and raised his head. Mr Hunter could not afford to lose his beautiful Stark connection for his son's negligence and nonchalance. "Idiot he is the head of the Stark and you will apologise the whole night, please Mr Joshua forgives us." "I thought Mr Stark doesn't have an heir?" "Well, you can ask the heir

    Members of the Mason family were gathered round the dining table in the morning."What was all that?" Mrs Mason said."For a split second, I believed that Joshua was Mr Hunter's son.""Misunderstanding that's what it clearly signifies and nothing other than that, God! how could you believe such lies, it doesn't suit him."She pours the hot water into the cup and was mixing it with the coffee powder."Joshua hadn't been home earlier either and now he told mother he is out for job hunting.""Yes, he is trying to act the Saint husband these days, he knows what he is benefiting from us, the Masons, he wouldn't want to be thrown to the street like the other time.""Clearly I see.""You're not going to embarrass us are you?" Mr Mason said icily to Pamela as he gulp his hot coffee.Pamela had talked about his she would try her luck by participating in the Renov project."No father, today is the deadline and there's no harm in trying isn't it." "Yes, father Pamela is right, you should let he

    Pamela glanced at Joshua in disbelief. "You can't be doing this to me." She muttered as the shock on her face instantly changed to a frown expression with indifference."It's okay if you still don't accept me or don't believe me, Pam," Joshua said, folding his hand on the table and reaching for her hand, his gaze burdened and concerned."What was there to celebrate? Our failed marriage? Or the fact that I'm trying hard to keep up a happy smile while sneaking out with you, the fact that no one acknowledges me because I am still not sure about my decisions.""Please Pamela, as much as you're burdened, I'm hurt too. I can imagine.""No, no you don't Joshua, you never do." She begged sucking in a deep breath that turned to chuckle at first."I do and I'm trying to make up for my failed times as your man." He whispered to her, his fingers catching into her hand. It's not how he wanted to be but he still has to put on the big panties to do what is required."How? By coming here on time? Yo

    Mr Mason neglected his wife and the search for Pamela with his eyes going around.Mr Mason sighed seemingly falling into a pensive mood, the enemies have counterattacked. And he wondered who might have offended that Karma had to throw a fit at him.Mr Mason was staring at the clock beside him and Trisha came rushing down towards him forcing their eyes to darken her path."Dad, mum I can't find her." She started. They were concerned Mr Mason had instructed no one to leave the house on this day to save him from the embarrassment that would possibly include the Masons. That's the best he could do so far."What should you do father?" Trisha questioned, she was happy that Pamela would disregard their father today. Joshua by now had communicated with Miss Laura and his father, Mr Stark. He would be there in a short while.While on the other hand everyone was dressing, staring and scrutinizing themselves in the mirror, Benedict and the Blaze had already bargained deciding who would win the

    They arrived at the museum where the Stark had decided to hold the party and the nomination for the Renov project.Mr Mason got down from his car along with his wife.Mr Levi, as well as Mr Hudson, arrived too, their cars aligned close to each other on the parking veranda."Oh Mr Stark what a coincidence, I thought you weren't going to come." Mr Levi said, pulling him in for a bear hug.Mr Levi after hearing what happened to his company decided to come back from the state, and tend to it. Mrs Levi was not happy about it and hence filed for a divorce."Mr Levi, I never thought you would recover so quickly." Mr Hudson breaks in as he shakes hands with him.Mr Levi's face twitched and he inquired who the young bachelor was. He seems to be standing beside Mr Mason."Oh, Mr Levi met Mr Hudson, he has been one of my fundraisers. Until recently.""Oh! I recall, I heard about your major flaws and set back. It must be hard especially since you're new and young blood like this. Don't worry you

    The light illuminated the whole section where the grand gala occasion was taking place. "What the heck is this useless son inlaw scheming here again?" Mr Levi asked as he leaned in to whisper into Mr Mason's ear."I can't tell, I'm just as mortified as you, I mean we didn't see him leave the house." Mr Mason replied glaring at him sternly. Joshua looked more composed and neat than he could ever imagine. "No one can tell, it's strange." He muttered under his breath.The microphone boomed as Miss Laura tapped the mushroom head."Attention everyone. I'm so sorry to have kept you for so long, just as much as everyone is eager we're also getting tired.""As all know, every company submitted their proposal with notes and attachments stating how they will approach a new dimension in channelling and ensuring good business relations but new ideas is the core, not the normal cliche.""We the board members at the Stark company limited had come to a unanimous conclusion that…"She went flat as sh

    Laura stepped up to the stage glancing around. "I know you guys are startled as to why Mr Stark was not present at the moment. But don't fret, something great Is about to unfold.''" I guess the Stark never gets tired of surprising us." Mr Levi muttered to Mr Mason who felt elated by, to the sun. He knew that after tonight, the Mason family will be the most sought-after in the whole of Vancouver and beyond.The man chuckled as he couldn't believe his daughter had the spark in her. For changing his predicted bad reputation."It was such a bottle turner to see that the Mason will have their research fueled and catered for by the Stark." Mr Benedict chimed in, greeting Mr Levi."I told you they're going to reveal who the anonymous head of the Stark is and certainly that we can't wait, I can't wait.""He may be someone we already know, Simon Stark has no heir.""Everyone knows they will go into major fallback if Derek succeeds as the new head."

    Mrs Bridget Mason was shaking like a leaf. Joshua felt utterly broken darkness and confusion were in his soul."Oh good God can't be, can't be I can't imagine losing my daughter.""Mother, stop it, everything is going to be alright," Trisha assured her mother.She felt bad, Trisha, she couldn't imagine losing her sister."Why and how would I go on? Like this?" She wished she'd struck her skull and skillfully opened it in half.She stood up to her feet round in wonder, her eyes filled with tears walking towards the entrance of the museum that was fuming with smoke."Mother, stop it, you don't have to go into this, it's too early, Joshua is inside he won't fail to bring her back."Valentine was striving and being tended to beside the ambulance by the medical team that arrived. She had bruises on her body caused by scalding."Oh, you got injured real bad.""Did you by any chance run into Pamela?" Trisha asked one of the chefs and she simply noted she didn't.Everyone was distancing them

    Joshua almost choking on blood, Hudson twisted the knife into his gut, he felt like he should have himself down on a cliff but on second thought he could not quite sketch out why Hudson was greedy for what was not his. "How are you going to get the Stark when it's not even yours, your identity?" Hudson curled his eyebrow right at him and then began to chuckle. "Then what? Do you think I will think of something that will just remain solely as an illusion?" He sauntered over to Joshua. , "I'm a man of my ambition." "Hudson this will be interesting as you have declared your intention." Joshua laughed, choking on blood. His heart was dark and bloody. Hudson stood there In his hand was the blood-stained dagger he raised it straight pointing at Joshua. "When you have lived your entire life claiming the identity you're not, Hudson it will be hard to live without purpose." He looked around and then back to Joshua. "That is extreme." "I know but once you're dead nothing is stopping me."

    Swirling around them was a cloud of dust from the sawmill where Joshua was held hostage. When he went out to meet with Peter earlier, something came up. Peter after spending time with him induced his water with a powder, his head spun around like he'd gotten into an accident, his heart started to beat slowly like everything he had worked hard for had lost its base, and his hands wobbled his head. Banging loud like it was hit by the hardest metal. Everything was so surreal and yet so copper in his throat. What kind of liquid was he induced with? He didn't know but he knew one thing for sure, this was not a mistake or a coincidence. Peter sat at the opposite seat and watched him while everything happened unwavering, Joshua fighting for his breath was like him watching a drama, a scary one he has gotten used to at that. "I don't like to see you like this Joshua but I have no option, never trust an enemy to be your friend." Peter's voice was screechy, stretching no tension. All Joshua's

    "I have an idea, Let's run the DNA test and confirm the truth about Hudson." Miss Laura contributed. "You scared the crap out of me, Miss Laura," Pamela concluded. Pamela got that served quite cold and slowly she tried to regain her strength in an oblivious way, she blinked at Miss Laura, the relationship she had with her, she was quite sure if things go out the wrong way with the DNA she will be more than screwed. Joshua with the most condescending look sipped on his drink and relaxed on the sofa. "That is brilliant, I think it will work that way." Joshua agreed. Miss Laura and Joshua almost in unison glided their sight to Pamela. "What?! You're not expecting me to get it are you?!'' She shrugged, choking on her saliva. Pamela turned to look at Miss Laura. After what happened last night she couldn't get any closer to Joshua without it being suspicious. She huffed and rested her hand to the side of her face, her head hung in a sluggish tired way on the desk and Josh

    Joshua was still shocked by Miss Laura back slashing attitude toward him. "Let me see what you have there." He said and Miss Laure forwarded her iPad to him. He read through it carefully then sighed. As if knowing what was going on he stared straight at Miss Laura. "Don't be like that." "Don't be like how we have gone this far and to think that some bastard is sitting up there… if this had no impact on you. You do it does on me, I can't let Hudson take charge." She clenched her jaw and felt the electric shock rifle up her jaw. "I will see what I can do about it." "Coward." Miss Laura hissed behind his back and he left her alone in the office entry. —--- "I can't believe this,'' Hudson said and he clasped his hands together while getting closer to the lady in front of him. "What do you believe?" Pamela scoffed. "The fact that you want to have me ruined or the fact that you figure out your dream will come true." Pamela bit her bottom lips, the word hurting through her mo

    Joshua flew his gaze right at the mirror where he was unbuttoning his shirt, "It has already begun." He clenched his hand around the curtain and turned to give a second glance at the west wing of the room he had allocated to Pamela while they were there together. He pulled his suitcase towards himself and then dropped it, what if there was no reason for him? Likely he won't want to go back just as he thought about it closely. Every muscle in his body throbbed. But something like a weave of the thread was dragging him back. He wouldn't be able to make it and if he turns back now it means that everything he had worked hard for during his period while staying right here in Sheffield was nothing but a wasted time. The nun Mary has to meet with her as soon as possible to figure out more in regards to his twin brother. Could Hudson be lying, his medical report didn't reveal that he had any genetic disorder. But there was a chance that he fabricated it. He had to meet the nun. And his fligh

    "What is the name of the disease?" Joshua asked but the nun didn't reply to him. He put his hand against the counter with a vase and asked again. "What is the name?" His brow tint demandingly. "I'm sorry but that is all we could find, I can't pronounce it but I have everything emailed down to you. Got to take a look at it." The nun muttered. Joshua gulped, his eyes lingering relentlessly, If Joshua finds that what he thinks is true then it means. . . Well, he was too deep into his sleep with the call came in, his voice was trying to sound normal. Joshua couldn't quite think well enough. He let out a deep sigh and shifted to the side without letting the suspense die off, the nun vanished and killed the call. "Alright, Thank you, sister Mary. I quite think you have done enough." Joshua said over the phone and ended the call he dropped his phone by his side, in a toss that showed he wasn't sure what to do at the moment hen then let himself dribble his hand off his face as he fucking

    Pamela swat her hand to her face, she thought they were way past that. This hurts more than she could figure, what in God's name! Even as she feels her heart slamming against her rib cage and sweat dribbling down her spine. She forced a smile on her face. "What?" "I'm reminding you, did you send the note I told you to?" Joshua showed no restraint, his voice was purely authoritative, Pamela's eyes met his folded gaze she broke before she ran her hand along her jaw scratching through it as if there was a complete cold she had met the harbinger of death. "Yes, yes of course I was just going from there. It slipped my mind that I didn't let you know." Joshua's brow rises and she takes a step back as he takes a step towards her. Joshua's hand dribbled from his side and raised to touch the lips of the Pamela jacket that she wore. "You should lay this properly." He said then turned his back. Pamela clicked her fingers to the heart of her hand. Joshua's gaze was on her

    Pamela walked the entry street by the woods, she sighs as her eyes catch the bus stop not far from where she stood, her hand to her knees and her forehead dripping with sweat. She doesn't know whether to say summer in Vancouver was far better but here her whole body is soaked up. "Thank heaven there is a bus stop right there." She dug her hand into her pocket and pulled out the hole from her pocket. Her head shook, she had no single glimpse of what Joshua's intentions were when he asked her to deliver the letter and what was inside the letter might bother her to try to figure out more but she dug it deeper inside her coat. "I shouldn't look beside it's not intended for me." She shakes her head and drops her hand from her pocket. Her superficial attempt to hold everything under her baby was a kind that feels so hefty. She finds herself fitted on the bench, beside her stood men who were dressed heftily, their voices the dark chrome of their dressing. Pamela blinked up wit

    "It feels like we need a safe word," Pamela said the lines around her eyes slowly fading. "I wouldn't allow it, neither of us is allowed to walk out and go the way we were before we boarded on this plane, we can't and you know how this trip is secret." "Okay pick it, what is our safe word?" Pamela anticipated tirelessly, she knew more than anyone that she got on this plane for her own reasons. Mind blown Joshua shrugs. "I'm as surprised as you are. I wouldn't know any, come on figure out one I will just have to live by the way." "What about blue for when it's right and red for when it's not," Joshua suggested, the scowl Pamela three his way we're oddly penetrative beyond his flesh. "Random as hell." "I like where this is headed already. Don't forget it's not a date." "We're going to Sheffield and they're known for their extra cautious lifestyle. It wouldn't help us last some days without getting discovered." She shrugs. Joshua grinned. "What is
