Mr Joshua, I'm sorry I had to call you or here knowing you want your identity discreet. Joshua cocked his head to look closely at the man. "Don't worry, Mr Stark told me everything and you don't need to be in such a mood man, alright." The man blinked and drank from his cup, Joshua didn't overreact. He stared at him in scrutiny. "What did he tell you, Mr Hunter?" This question came from Joshua after several hours of consuming what the man was saying and figuring out how to reply to him. "Well, Mr Joshua, he only demanded it should be kept discreet." "Discreet, well you said you know about me why don't you spill it out." "Haha, that would be a spoiler." The man said bluntly. "Not to me." Joshua sounded the term daring into the man's eyes. His eyes fell on the chap standing by the left. A sorry sight of a frail man that thought of ending up like the latter but was not sorry for himself. "You can't possibly hurt me, I'm only saying I know the truth that you were only claiming to
The whole mansion of Mr Hunter was in chaos, after the decorative event planners had left, the patriarchs were flooding in, and it was already night. Mr Hunter wished he could just kill himself for rushing ahead and acting stupid. He doesn't want to be on the bad side of the Starks. 'I just hope he forgives me.' He muttered like a form of prayer."You've been like this sir, are you sure everything is alright?" The PA came walking in towards his side."Of course everything is alright. Where are Jerome and Kira?" Mr Hunter questioned as he pulled out of his trance and walked over to the cell phone."They should be here in the next thirty mins sir." Jerome and Kira were his children, they have been in the state for the past ten years only to come back on this day. He had not just called them home but dragged them instead.Mr Hunter was not in the best mood but he tried to be on his best behaviour at best.He cleared the air and got himself into his suit. "Let me know once they're here a
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
