“Aahhh…..”Emile screamed, nearly fainting from the pain, yet there was still no sign of the babies being born. Her nails dug into Chris's arms, but there was no change in his expression or tone.“Please hold on a little longer...” he coaxed gently.A sob escaped his throat.“I am sorry...”“Shut up...” Emile shouted, her voice weak but fierce. “All your fault.”“Yes... yes... yes... all my fault...” Chris readily agreed. “Just a little harder.”Thunder roared overhead as streaks of purple lightning tore through the sky, striking the hut in righteous fury.This time, not only Chris, but even Master, Hendrick, Bai-Min and Lai-Li coughed up blood.Both Bai-Min and Lai-Li bent over, staggering to their knees, but neither faltered. They held their positions, their energy continuously flowing to maintain the shield.A crack appeared across the barrier above them.Master frowned.Seeing Chris's face turn pale and blood stain the corner of his lips, neither Spector nor Spectra could restrain
Inside the room, Chris’s master looked at Emile with furrowed brows for a minute before turning to Chris, “Do you still have the heavenly snow bean I gave you?”Chris nodded. His master extended his hand.“Can you get it for daddy?” Chris turned to Chris Jnr.Chris Jnr wrinkled his little face, trying to figure out what his daddy was asking.“Remember the rainbow-coloured pills you gave the dragon last time?” Chris’s master kneeled to level his gaze with Chris Jnr.Chris Jnr nodded and was about to run out when Chris called out, “Bring the wooden chest where it is stored.”Emm also followed her brother when she heard Chris asking for the whole chest.“Ideally, we should have gone to the island.” Chris’s master frowned as he looked around at the room. He had no idea what to expect… but he knew for sure that this room and house were not equipped for whatever was coming…“We can reinforce it with spiritual energy...” Hendrick suggested knowing what his master was worried about.Master rub
Neil and Hua Yueren arrived one after the other.“Master you are here?” Neil greeted excitedly.Hua Yueren hummed as he walked forward, his hands clasped together behind his back.Adrian and his little family, who arrived with Neil stood to the side, not wanting to add to the chaos but ready to help if needed.By the time Neil and his master had arrived, Dolly and Anne had the delivery room prepared.Hua Yueren knitted his brows. He still couldn’t shake the concerns raised by his previous conversation with Azure.“Master, is there a problem?” Neil asked in a quiet voice. He didn’t want to attract any attention to them. He could see that Chris wasn’t coping well even without any triggers.Slowly, even though it was midnight, the rest of the Walters and Burkes swaggered in… who informed them? Who knows?? But no one was in the state of mind to pay attention to this mystery.“Where’s Emile?” Elizabeth asked in a whisper after pulling Jeffrey aside.“Madam’s in the room that was prepared fo
Just as Chris finished speaking, Night Wing walked in. He bent down and whispered in his ear before handing him an envelope.Chris stared at the report silently.The paper crumpled little by little in his grasp.No one spoke.By the time he finally lowered his hand, fine ash slipped through his fingers into his pocket.The calmness in his expression made the atmosphere even heavier.“The children who survived have either been reunited with their families, are waiting to be transported, or are already on their way home.” Chris updated the others before turning to Mark, “Big brother, can you donate some funds towards the Travel fund that has been set up by our government for these kids?”“Majority of these kids who were taken as a cover come from mediocre or impoverished families.”Mark called his secretary on the spot and gave instructions. Darcy switched on international news as big brother was taking care of matters.The anchor on screen was giving an account of the events that shook
Both Burke and Walter households were in attendance at Chris’s Rose villa even before Chris arrived back.“Everyone’s here.” Chris laughed softly as he gestured that he would return after settling Emile.The kids who were noisily coming up from the basement became even more excited as they saw their parents. They continued their ruckus by sharing their excitement with their parents, presenting their pearls with great care.“Did they really find this?” Eric asked in disbelief as he took the pearl from Diana’s hand.“I found this on my own.” Felicity puffed her cheeks and chest indignantly.“Yes, little thirteen found them all by herself.” Miles added in support. The others too all stopped what they were doing and turned to face Eric as they nodded in support.Eric comically raised his hand in defeat.Chris returned just in time to see his undefeated roguish fifth brother admitting defeat. He chuckled as he joined the group.Once all the excitement died down and the children with the exc
Chris took everyone for a spin to lift the children’s spirits before heading back home. There wasn’t much debate about where they wanted to go. The kids had developed a new interest: diving. It wasn’t just a hobby; they had a secret agenda, to find the Ocean King’s castle.The discovery last time had filled them with awe. They had learned that even if they couldn’t find the Ocean King’s castle, there was always something waiting to be discovered beneath the sea.This time, they were far more familiar with the process and no longer needed guidance. They already knew where the diving equipment was kept. Even before the aircraft, technically an ocean craft, landed on the ocean floor, they had already changed and were eagerly waiting to head out.This time, however, Chris didn’t accompany them. He left the children in the capable hands of his elite soldiers and stayed behind instead. His sleeping beauty was fast asleep, and despite her briefly opening her eyes to tell him to go with the ki
Chris didn’t know when he dozed off but was woken up by the footsteps outside their room even though they were barely audible. He too was a light sleeper like most people in trained in martial arts and didn’t give a damm about who he offended. He turned his gaze towards his sleeping beauty to see th
“No…. no….no…. That’s not what I meant.” Neil almost slapped himself as he realized how muddled his explanation was. “What I explained right now was how the treatment was supposed to work.” Neil sighed “But somehow, one of the students who came under Master’s tutelage was not appreciative of Master’
The next few weeks went by peacefully except for Chris being on tenterhooks with Emile being in her 8th month. Darcy, Grace and Marcus moved to Darcy’s villa in the main residence although Chris and Eva continued to stay in their private villa outside. Neil and Abbey decided to go back after Emile’s
Birthday celebrations were a huge affair for the Walters; it was bigger than any festival they celebrated. However, Darcy stopped celebrating his birthday on a grand scale after Grace left. No matter who tried to convince him, it didn’t have any effect. After Marcus was born, it became a small affai
