“ Why are you here?” Elijah asked. His voice was cold and unfriendly, anyone would think that they are both long time enemies.“ Can't I visit the Empire again? Remember this Empire is where it is because of me” Damien bragged.“ I am sure that this isn't the reason why you're back to Georgia” Elijah said and Damien smiled and moved closer towards Elijah.“ Well, well, well, it seems you know me so much cousin brother” Damien chuckled while Elijah sneered at his hypocrisy.“ Why are you here, Damien?” Elijah asked once again. His patience was running out already and at the sight of Damien, he gets angry though he doesn't know why.“ I am here to collect why rightfully belongs to me. I mean, I worked day and night for this Empire for three fucking years and just because you were found, the Empire was given to you. That's not how politics works, Elijah” Damien stated but Elijah seemed uninterested in his speech.“ If you're done with your speech because you aren't saying anything useful
“ What are you talking about?” Elijah furrowed his brows.“ What I meant is that Daniel, Damien and one other unknown man is responsible for the loss of your memory” Cory repeated.“ And who is the unknown man?” Elijah inquired but Cory shook his head, indicating that he knows nothing about the man and who he is.“ How do you know about it, Cory?” “ I— overheard Daniel speaking with your cousin Damien” Cory explained and Elijah exhaled. The information which has just been revealed to him was just too much for his head to process.How could his cousin do such a thing to him?“ That explains the reason why Daniel hates me so much even when I was still the son in law of the Payton family “ Elijah explained and shoved his fingers into his hair, but the ringing of his phone distracted him so he took it out and picked up the call.“ Hello, who is this?” Elijah asked.“ Are you Elijah West?” A strange masculine voice asked from the other end of the phone.“ Yes I am. What can I do for you?”
Just before Damien could lose his consciousness, Hank came running towards the parking lot.“ Elijah! Get a grip of yourself! What do you think would happen if the board of West Empire finds out that you're about to choke your cousin brother to death?” Hank asked, trying to talk some senses into Elijah's head, maybe he would stop choking Damien who is enjoying the show.“ Get a grip of yourself! Killing him won't solve anything!” Hank said again and that was when Elijah released Damien and stormed out of the parking lot.Hank faced Damien who was still smiling with his bleeding teeth and face.“ You're a bastard who doesn't deserve to live” Hank sneered and walked away. Few minutes after Hank left, Sarah and her daughter Rachel came looking for Damien and found him groaning and wailing in pain on the ground.“ Damien!” Sarah shouted in horror and rushed towards her son.“ What happened to you? Who did this to you?” Sarah rushed her questions as she helped Damien up.“ I guess he ups
PRIME MINISTER'S MANSIONIsabella walked into her house with a sad look on her face. She was too sad to notice that her parents had some visitors they were discussing with in the sitting, so she just walked past them and was heading to her room when she heard her mom's voice.“ Isabella” Mrs Dylan called and Isabella turned around to notice the visitors which made her gasp softly.“ I am sorry, I was lost in thought that I didn't notice we have some visitors in our home” Isabella apologised and walked into the sitting room to greet the visitors properly. Despite she's a Prime Minister's daughter, Isabella is very calm and humble and doesn't have pride like all other rich kids who are arrogant and flaunt their wealth all around.“ This is my daughter, Isabella” Mr Dylan introduced his daughter to the visitors who had a satisfactory smile on. Among the visitors is a young man with good features and is also handsome. It seemed as if he was forced to come but nevertheless, he smiled t
“ Isabella? Why are you walking at night?” Elijah broke the hug and asked.“ My parents want me to get married against my wish so I ran away from home” Isabella replied and Elijah sighed.“ You're a lady and shouldn't be walking at night, tell me your home address so I can take you home” Elijah helped her up and led her towards his car.“ Can I crash at your place only for tonight?” Isabella asked and Elijah declined immediately.“ We are just getting to know each other, I will urge you not to trust people too quickly, you don't know what harm they might cause you so be weary” Elijah helped her in the passenger seat and ordered Hank to start the car. Isabella reluctantly told Elijah her home address and Hank drove towards her home only to meet her parents already outside their home waiting for her to arrive.“ See, your parents really love you, they are waiting for you to come home, so go” Elijah urged but Isabella rolled her eyes.“ Come down with me” she pleaded and Elijah had to
DAMIEN'S MANSIONSarah was preparing breakfast for her children when her phone rang and she took it from the apron she wore and picked it up.“ Hello,” she said.“ Your father is dead” Bishop Leo said from the other end of the phone and Sarah gasped in shock.“ What! What did you just say? My father is dead?” Sarah shouted in horror.“ Yes, he was found dead at 4am this morning” Bishop Leo said and hung up. Rachel who was coming down for breakfast rushed to the kitchen when she heard her mother shout.“ Mom, what is the problem?” Rachel asked and Sarah burst into tears.“ Your grandfather was found dead this morning at 4am” Sarah said amidst tears.“ What! How? He was totally fine and okay yesterday “ Rachel said as tears slipped out of her eyes. Damien, who was just coming back home after leaving the house the previous night, walked into the kitchen to get a bottle of water but met his mom and sister crying.“ What happened?” He asked and Sarah narrated everything to him and befo
Damien walked out of the hospital in anger while Sarah followed him alongside Rachel since Elijah didn't let them see chairman West's dead body not until the autopsy was done. Elijah also left the hospital with Hank but he made sure Bishop Leo left before they also left the hospital.“ Make sure no media or reporters know about the death of my grandfather. If not it would cause a lot of havoc to the West Empire,” Elijah said and Hank nodded.“ So where are you going right now?” Hank asked as Elijah was about to drive off.“ You don't need to worry about me. Go back to the hospital and get the autopsy before it gets fabricated” Elijah said and Hank nodded.“ I am trusting you Hank to help me out” Elijah tapped Hank's shoulder before driving off.“ I hope he will be alright” Hank sighed and went back to the hospital. In less than twenty minutes, the doctor who conducted the autopsy came with the result and gave it to Hank so he would give it to Elijah so he thought of an idea to cat
Seeing Elijah, their eyes widened so much but the expression on the boss's face wasn't shown because he was putting on a black mask which made it impossible to see his face.Elijah started walking towards where the boss and his boy stood reeled to the ground.“ Deal with him” the boss shouted, his voice shaking obviously out of fear and his boys all charged towards Elijah. Elijah stood in the middle of the circle, surrounded by the boss's men who were getting ready to attack. They looked angry, fists clenched, and faces twisted with scorn. Despite this, Elijah remained calm, focused, and prepared to defend himself. When the first man lunged towards him, Elijah swiftly dodged the punch and countered with a quick kick to the stomach, knocking him down.The other men hesitated briefly, then all charged at Elijah together, trying to overpower him with their numbers.Elijah, being a skilled fighter through several training and also he got an experience through the kidnapping that happe
