Mr Leonard Cooper arrived at the mansion so as not to miss out on his daughter's engagement party which was the next day."Where have you been Leonard?" Mrs Cooper asked."Honey, I told you I had a business to handle, I had to come back home because of our daughter's engagement." Mr Leonard Cooper retorted."Oh I didn't realize you remember that you have a family. You are always traveling outside the country, going places away from us." Mrs Cooper stated."It's for our family, every single thing that I do is for our our family Sarah. In case you haven't noticed, we are not as rich as Dwayne's family. We are going down every single time so I need to work hard for our social status to go up in the social ladder and everything I do is for you and the family we both built." Mr Cooper conveyed."Oh please you're not the only husband out there striving to make their family succeed. But, you are the one who travels the most." Mrs Sarah Cooper retorted."Probably that is because no husband is
An hour later, a young lady walked towards the door and rang the doorbell.Given what had happened an hour before, Vivian took it upon herself to open the door."Who are you and what are you doing here?" Vivian asked, still trying to get why her house was being visited today."Good afternoon." The young lady greeted humbly.Realizing her approach was a little too harsh, Vivian uttered;"Sorry about my manners, hello…""Does a certain Warrick live here?" She asked."Yes, may I know who is asking?" Vivian asked."I am Cleopatra, the granddaughter of Mr Brad Wallace and I am here to have a talk with him." She retorted."Is there a problem?" Vivian asked to be sure."No, none, I came here in peace and with good intentions." Cleopatra uttered. "Give me a second, I'll go let him know you are here. Be right back." Vivian uttered.'She's so beautiful. Who could she be? Is that man married? She must be very lucky to have him all to herself even though he is arrogant. Wait a minute. What am I
"Oh my goodness you look amazing and beautiful my angel." Mrs Cooper praised."Thanks mum." Yvonne said smiling."I am sure your fiance would not be able to take his eyes off you looking so stunning like that." Mrs Cooper uttered.Yvonne couldn't help but blush, she was very excited that she'll be getting married to her dream man soon enough, someone who can take care of her and her needs.Although Warrick Chase had always done his best to make her happy, she felt it wasn't enough. Knowing better or so she thought, she couldn't understand how she was able to live with him for three years.******"Son, have you changed your mind? Aren't you going to the engagement party anymore?" Mrs Oliver asked his son."Of course mom I will, it's just that I am a little bit nervous. I don't know if the lie I gave them was a little bit too overboard, I don't know." Oliver Dwayne uttered as he pointed out his concern to his parents."Oh, are you just realizing that you did something wrong? Well the de
Oliver Dwayne was talking with his father Mr Henry, and they were giggling.The truth is that their company was secretly going bankrupt due to mismanagement of funds, their foresight wasn't right and now they and their company have to pay for it.Their plans were to make sure that they acquired lots and lots of properties from the little families and so after making their research, the Cooper's were their target.They plan on taking their wealth and fleeing the country with it because they needed, to start life afresh. Their company would be going bankrupt sooner rather than later which was why they needed to act fast.It's no wonder, a renowned playboy like Oliver Dwayne would want to settle down all of a sudden.He wanted to have access to their wealth and that's all that matters to him.While they were discussing and giggling, Mrs Cooper walked in and said;"It is an honor to have your family here with us, and I want to say thank you for all that you do.""I should be the one to sa
All Lunel could hear was the high pitched buzzing sound. The bomb had been detonated. Lunel struggled to seat up but his chest was hurting like it was ripped open by something. He could see his friends in a pool of blood he was certain it was their own blood. He tried getting up to see what was going on but.. darkness overwhelmed him. And he passed out. Days turned into weeks and weeks into months, and he woke up in a hospital bed, his father's most trusted bodyguard could be seen sitting by his side."Young master!! You are awake."He held his head in his arms as he tried to recall what happened but all he could hear was a high-pitched buzzing sound.He groaned in pain and so the doctors came and injected him with a drip and in a short while he slept off."Sir, the young master just regained consciousness." The bodyguard spoke to his boss over the phone."Keep him safe, Alfredo don't leave his side." Mr Chase uttered."Yes sir." Alfredo uttered.That was Lunel's father on the phon
After making sure that lunel can walk on his own without falling down and making sure that his sanity was intact.He was taken far away to another town through the black market and gave him a new identity as Warrick; his father just couldn't do away with his name so he added Chase to it.He became known as Warrick Chase and had to live a totally different life from the one he had always known. Of course it wasn't easy to live like that, but for his safety and for justice for his mum and friends who died to prevail, he had to.Lunel Chase did not even know where his mother was buried because if he had gone to visit her grave, that might have given their enemies the proof they needed to figure out he was alive. So they had no idea who was watching them and who wanted to see them crumble.He became known as Warrick Chase, a lowlife, a good for nothing man just so he could divert his enemies from his existence.But he secretly talks to his father, if need be while he recovers from his in
In a huge building, in a room filled with warmth a young woman was sleeping peacefully and the sun ray was Her phone began ringing and she woke up quickly and abruptly."Yes?" She answered."Well hello princess, how are you doing this morning? Rise and shine.""Grandpa!!!" Cleopatra exclaimed excitedly."Yes my beautiful princess, how was your night?" Mr Brad Wallace asked."It's too early. I was still sleeping when you called, a woman needs to have her beauty sleep, but thanks to you I won't be having it." She jokingly said and felt her grandpa was being happier but she couldn't understand how that was possible. "You are still as troublesome as you were when you were a toddler, haha… I called to let you know I am feeling better than I have ever been." Mr Brad Wallace conveyed."Really grandpa? Are you sure?" Cleopatra asked."Of course, it's like I never got sick, it's all thanks to that young man's medicine that I feel really good, please tell me he will be coming over tonight." M
Afternoon came and Lunel Chase felt a lot better, he was more than excited about it all. That means he gets to go for dinner tonight with Brad Wallace and family.He didn't want to let them down because he feels he could use their help in the future and that is one of the reasons he needed to attend this, so as to appear as a man of his words, thereby gaining Mr Brad's approval.While Alfredo and Vivian were discussing in the living room, Lunel walked down the stairs and said;"Vivian, I need you to get me a simple outfit, I have a dinner date to attend tonight.""What? Are you still going? You are not fit to move on your own." Vivian uttered."What dinner date?" Alfredo asked but wasn't given a reply."Vivian, please I know I consider you as a close associate but please do not dictate for me. I am not at all interested in whatever you have to say." Lunel Chase uttered."I am sorry sir, it's just that I consider you a friend and as such wouldn't want you to have to deal with issues al
Sophie was finally discharged from the hospital. Adonis was really worried when he arrived home and found out Sophie had an accident. "Sophie you can still come home with us if you want you know?" Charlotte said. "No, mom I still want to school here and... You guys aren't leaving me just yet right?" Sophie asked. "Of course not. And someone is here to see you." "Grandma." Sophie called out hugging Nancy Chase. "Oh my sweet little girl." Nancy Chase said hugging her. "I missed you so much Grandma." Sophie said. "Me too, and I came with someone else." "Who?" Sophie asked. "Grandma." Sophie called out hugging Kira, Arthur's mom. "Sorry I invited so many old people to see you Sophie, but there's someone else here to see you." Lunel said. "Grandpa? Aunt Lauren. It's so good to see you guys." Sophie smiled. "Of course Sophie, we had to come see you." Reddington smiled hugging Sophie. "I'm so glad you two came to see me." Sophie said hugging Lauren. "Yeah, I'm th
Charlotte asked one of the drivers to send Alec home first but Alec insisted he wanted to see his sister. They saw people gathering and Charlotte decided to check it out as well but was surprised one of the victims was her daughter Sophie. "No, Sophie." Charlotte sobbed. Sophie and Leonel were rushed to the hospital. After a few hours Leonel woke up. There wasn't much injury on him he just had a few bruises and cuts which would heal soon enough because he was wearing a helmet. "How's Sophie?" Charlotte asked. "She's in a coma. Also she has a fracture in her hand. She broke a bone as well. But it would heal with time." The doctor said. "No, no." Charlotte sobbed hugging Arthur. "Sophie's going to be okay, honey." Arthur said patting her back. "How is Sophie?" Peterson asked. "Are you happy now? My daughter is in a coma because of you and that son of yours. If anything happens to my little girl I swear I will kill you." Charlotte threatened. "I regret ever falling
"We met in UK, he was our neighbor." Charlotte replied. "Oh I see." Alec nodded. "Can I use the restroom?" Charlotte asked. "Of course I'll show you the way." Peterson said and Claudia frowned she wondered why Peterson invited Charlotte over. "Peterson what sick game are you playing?" Charlotte asked as soon as they were alone. "Playing? I should be asking you that Charlotte." Peterson said. "And why is that? Why can't you just leave my family alone, you have a family of your own now a wife and a son. Why are you pestering me and my husband?" Charlotte asked angrily. "Why didn't you tell me about Sophie?" Peterson asked. "What about Sophie?" "That she's my daughter." Peterson replied. "You're my father?" Sophie asked walking towards them. Everyone in the dinning headed towards the direction Charlotte and Peterson were when they heard voices. They all heard Peterson saying Sophie was his daughter. "Sophie." Charlotte called out. "Mom what is he taking about?" So
Peterson opened the test results and read through it, he was surprised that his DNA matched Sophie's. That means Sophie was his daughter. But why would Charlotte keep it from him, why would she lie to him? After all the years, was that why she kept her distance? Peterson decided he was going to invite Charlotte and her family over for dinner and as a matter of fact his father would be there. He was grateful Kyle and his wife hasn't returned yet so they would be invited too. He dialed Leonel's number. "Hey dad." Leonel said. "Son, I need to ask you a favor." "What is it dad?" Leonel asked. "That girl Sophie do you happen to have her contact?" Peterson asked. "Of course dad." "Do you mind if you give it to me?" Peterson asked.b "Eh why?" Leonel asked. "You see her mom and I lost contact and I would like to invite them for dinner tomorrow night." Peterson said. "Oh, okay." Leonel shrugged. He texted Peterson Sophie's number. He dialed the number and Sophie answe
The driver and bodyguard were confused as to what to do, they didn't want to disobey their boss. And now the young mistress wants them to do something else by putting them in a compromising situation. "We'll take you there Miss." They said. If they left the duo alone and something happens to them they would be blamed and they would surely lose their jobs either way. "Sophie think about what you're doing? Dad asked us to go home but you're disobeying him." Alec said. "Listen Alec, I know you want to be the obedient kid here but... Not today, I want to know if mom is really sick. And if she is, I want to know what's wrong." Sophie said. "Whatever, if we're caught it's all on you." Alec said. **** "Charlotte, did something happen at the mall?" Arthur asked "I saw Peterson." Charlotte replied. "What? You saw Peterson?" Arthur asked. "Yes." "What's he doing in New York? And did he see you?" Arthur asked. "Yeah, and he is Leonel's father." Charlotte replied. "What? So
Sophie returned to her room to change her clothes. She was still upset with Adonis and he still hasn't called to apologize. Sophie headed down the stairs and saw her mother and brother waiting. "Where's dad?" She asked. "He would meet us at the mall." "Okay." Sophie nodded with a smile. They got into the car and headed to the mall while Sophie just stared out the window absentmindedly. "Sophie is everything okay?" Charlotte asked. "Yeah, I'm fine mommy." Sophie said. "Your dad said you've been moody since you came back home yesterday did something happen at the party?" Charlotte asked. "No, mom nothing happened, everyone at the party was super nice." Sophie said. "Then did something else happen other than the party?" Charlotte asked. "My boyfriend happened." Sophie replied. "What happened to him?" Charlotte asked. "He's upset I went to the party without informing him." Sophie replied. "Well why didn't you tell him about it? Isn't your boyfriend friends with t
"I didn't let you finish really? Why would you go to their house?" Adonis asked. "First of all the party isn't held in their house and secondly, it's an official party and birthday party. So yes, stop being paranoid." Sophie said. "Why didn't you tell me you were going to a party in the first place?" Adonis asked. "Must I tell you everything? Besides, it slipped my mind." Sophie said. "I'm sure it did." Adonis said disconnecting the call. "Hello? Hello Adonis are you there?" Sophie asked as she noticed the call was disconnected. "I have to go Leonel." Sophie said. "Are you sure?" Leonel asked. "Yeah, it's two minutes to ten. I should just say my goodbyes to your family. You sure you'd be okay on your own?" Sophie asked. "Yeah, I'll manage. You already helped me endure most part." "I have to go now Mr Stark." Sophie smiled at Peterson. "Oh, but it's still early." Peterson said. "My dad would be upset if I come home a minute past his curfew." "Of course, father's don'
"Come let's go inside." Leonel said. "Is everyone here a business partner?" Sophie asked. "No, my family is also here. It's my father's birthday remember?" Leonel reminded. "Oh, I see." "Come I'd like to introduce you to my mom and then maybe we can sneak out." Leonel said. "Why don't you want to stay? It's your father's birthday and he's also talking about his business." Sophie said. "Yeah, and such talks are boring." Leonel said rolling his eyes. "Well, I need to get home by ten." Sophie said. "What? Why? But the party is just starting?" Leonel asked. "I'm not leaving now, I'm leaving by ten else dad would surely punish me for disobeying his rules." Sophie said. "That's okay, I wouldn't want you to get punished because of me." Leonel said. Lily saw Leonel from afar and decided to ask Peterson. "Uncle look at Leonel over there, who is that girl with him?" Lily asked. "I'm not entirely sure, I guess we'll find out when Leonel make the introductions."
Adonis saw the duo from a far and walked towards them. "Don't worry I'll try my best to come I promise." Sophie said. "Thanks." Leonel forced a smile. "You can always call me and I'll come outside to pick you up." Leonel said. "Why would your guards stop me?" Sophie asked. "Probably. But since you have an invitation they'll let you in." Leonel added. "Hey babe." "Oh hey." Sophie smiled hugging Adonis. "Oh, hi." Adonis said to Leonel "Hello." Leonel replied. "Okay Sophie I'll see you around." Leonel said. "Likewise." Sophie smiled. "What's up with him?" Adonis asked. "Oh nothing much. Let's go grab lunch." Sophie said. "Okay." Adonis nodded with a smile that soon faded. He wondered what Sophie and Leonel discussed that she was keeping from him. **** In Peterson's home his wife was busy ordering the maids around. Her father in-law law and mother in-law arrived a few days ago. She had to make them feel welcomed. So she was preparing a big dinner. "Wher
