Christopher paced back and forth in his room. He didn’t know what to do. Although he had to admit that he was shocked when he first heard the doctor but never in his wildest dreams did he think of giving up on her. He knew what she was trying to do… but he had no way to stop her.

He didn’t want to force her to make a decision, nor did he want to push her into a corner… all he wanted was for her to talk to him, tell him what she was thinking…. He wanted to support her no matter how difficult her

  • Never to look back   You were never a victim…

    “Were you any better?” Ron countered without backing and added “Worse, you even attacked her folks back home…”“No… I didn’t…” Daniel shook his head in denial at first before pausing as he remembered something and mumbled faintly “I only sent someone to warn them for raising such a vicious daughter.”“Warn??? Heh!” Ron scoffed “How far did the warning go? Do you not know?”“I just made them lose their jobs…” Daniel’s eyes darted guiltily as he lowered his head; he didn’t think it was too much to give them a lesson.“Do you know that the bullying you incited or paid for, didn’t just stop them from being able to work…. But also followed them all the way to their hometown, making it impossible for them to live…” Ron paused as he took a sip with a bitter expression “They eventually committed suicide.”“What???” Daniel’s eyes widened in shock before shaking his head “Does Michelle know?”“Why do think she willingly agreed to take part in Christopher’s scheme?” Ron hooked his eyebrows at Da

  • Never to look back   I just wanted my life back.

    The drive and the journey were unbearable for Daniel and yet none of his companions offered him any analgesics. The heartless man and woman even stopped the airhostess giving him anything to numb his pain, saying that he was allergic to those meds. ‘Hell…’ he felt like screaming that ‘he was not allergic to anything but pain’…however, the pain was so unbearable that he couldn’t utter a single word but whimper in pain.His consciousness floated in and out, tormented by pain; he had no idea how or when the journey ended, as when his consciousness returned next, long enough for him to remain sane, he was already back at his office in Holston holdings. But worse than the pain was the memory, the memory he regained…. Of his failed attempt and how he made a grand fool of himself.He stood up from his chair in a daze… confused as to why Christopher would let him walk scot-free after having him under his foot, reduced to an ant, waiting to be trampled. He looked around, his eyes still clouded

  • Never to look back   How does it feel to be treated by the same token?

    Daniel slowly gained consciousness, but his head still hurt; it hurt so much that he couldn’t even see what was in front of him, even his mind was playing tricks on him as his memories became jumbled, making it impossible for him to make sense of it.He tried to sit up, holding his temples that were throbbing uncontrollably before gritting his teeth and ordering Michelle who seemed to be standing indifferently by the side “Get me some meds for the pain.”Michelle didn’t respond to Daniel’s order but instead turned her head to look at Night Slade and Night Song. Daniel followed her gaze and saw the two people sitting leisurely on the sofa; he remembered that his headache seemed to have started following the consumption of the tea that was delivered by the man and became agitated.He gritted his teeth and questioned “What did you put in the tea? Are you planning to poison me to death along with your partner?”“I didn’t think Mr Holston had any scruples with poisoning considering he used

  • Never to look back   Dream time is over.

    At Daniel’s end, morning came, just the same as every other day for the last 4 weeks, however it was destined to be the day that bought forth Daniel’s worst nightmare.Daniel and Michelle were having breakfast when the doorbell rang. Daniel raised his head, turning his gaze towards Michelle, he lifted his eyebrows enquiringly. They had been here for close to a month and had never had any visitors call on them; they had hardly met anyone even when they went on their evening walks. It was like walking through a ghost town.He had no idea where the groceryman delivered all their daily necessities from, but he never saw any shops when they went out in close proximity to where they were staying; the guests at diner they visited on the weekends could be counted on one hand. Even the registry to collect their marriage certificate was an hour and a half drive away. He didn’t know whether to praise or curse his brilliance for coming up with such a plan for getting married without his grandfathe

  • Never to look back   Husband and sons are all waste… only best friends are worth it!

    Everyone settled back into the rhythm of their life with the Burkes, Everett, Bridgette and Hua Yuren and his team going back to their respective homes.True to his word, little baby had his parents move his things to Chris’s place claiming that he was staying there till the babies were born and old enough to look after themselves. Grace felt helpless as she looked at the diaper clad adult who still needed someone to look after him, who was clamouring for his things to be moved as he needed to look after his unborn siblings.She turned her gaze towards Chris and Emile hoping they would talk some sense into her little overlord but to her surprise, neither had any issues; they sat looking at the clamouring little overlord with an indulgent smile.“I will stay with them too.” Marcus too announced shamelessly, before turning to little baby “Come with big brother to pack your things.” He didn’t think there was anything wrong with asking little baby to pack his things. He was used to his lit

  • Never to look back   Little baby found the ocean king’s castle.

    About an hour into the exploration when Chris was about to call it a day as he saw Emile getting tired, the alarm sounded in his ears. He hugged Emile close and gestured her to lie on his back, which she happily obliged; he dove towards the alarm with lightning speed after ensuring his dear wife was comfortable. He didn’t have any doubts about Night Blade’s capabilities, but he still couldn’t stop himself.Inwardly he shook his head helplessly as he saw his treasures too, diving in the direction of the alarm; they must have gotten Night Wing to rig little baby’s gear so that they could hear him if he called.However, unaware of the emotions of his little uncle and treasures who were diving towards him at the speed of light, little baby was in a battle of his own; he was wildly flailing and thrashing his little hands and feet, trying to escape from Night Blade’s iron claws that held him captive. He had just found an opening, something that looked like a narrow passage and wanted to cont

  • Never to look back   Can we talk?

    Christopher sat at his desk trying to calm his mental faculties as he ended the call. He had no idea why Emile wanted to talk but he was sure it wouldn’t be anything good. He hoped that this wouldn’t be the last conversation they had. He didn’t wish for much. He was happy to stand behind and watch h

    Emile had just turned to face Daniel and didn’t expect the kick; She fell backwards onto the shards as she tried to balance herself.“Ahhhaaa…” Emile cried out in pain. Blood seeped out through the cuts onto her dress, but Daniel didn’t seem to have noticed th

  • Never to look back   What is mine will never be taken away….

    The scene that entered Night Wing’s eyes as he entered the room was Christopher was unpacking his bag. In the eyes of the beholder, the difference between packing and unpacking would be based on their perspective. Night Wing froze for a minute before opening his mouth “Boss…”“Order lunch for us as w
