DERICK

I had been busy since the court ruling came down. I was sleeping at the office with how busy I was. We were ordered to give everything back to Kora and pay her for using her patents. We owed her years of payments. After paying her, the company could only afford payroll for three months. On the other hand, banks were calling their loans.

I had to take from my personal savings to cover those loans and now I was only left with one account. I planned to use it to cover payroll for another t

  • Our House of Cards: He Thought He Left Me with Nothing   CHAPTER 33– MEETING MY BROTHER

    NICOLUS Ater what Derick did, I agreed to meet with his team. It was time I ended him in person. It was time the saw the person who had been behind him the whole time. The person who he thought was a broke nobody. The brother who had lifted him from the ground and helped his business become what it was. The man who was going to take away his last hope.“What exactly are you going there for?” I put on my cufflinks. “To finish what I started.” Lucas chuckled. “Just don’t forget he is still your brother.” I glanced at him. “He should have thought of that before he acted like an ungrateful snake.” That shut Lucas right up. He opened his mouth to speak but nothing came out.“Okay, you do as you wish, just make sure he doesn’t do something stupid.” I glanced at him. “What could be more stupid than what he has already done?” I shrugged. “People who are backed into a corner do stupid things.” I would like to see what a toothless dog could do. “Let him try.” I said before walking out.He had

  • Our House of Cards: He Thought He Left Me with Nothing   CHAPTER 32- THE CHILDREN UNDERSTAND

    LUCASI stood there like an idiot and watched as she broke. She could hardly keep it together but still stood her ground and cut ties with her ex beautifully. I watched as Derick cut off his way back to his kids, his son mostly who still had lots of love for him, and I couldn’t help but tear up. My family was very close, and we took care of each other.I had never seen a father use his son the way Derick did. Maybe that was why I was so useless in that situation. I just couldn’t understand. Kora took Noah and I drove us away from that place. “Mom.” Kora looked down at him. I glanced at them from the rereview mirror. “Yes baby.” Little Noah lowered his head.“Will daddy build me a tress house as well?” My heart ached. He had seen the treehouse in the yard. I didn’t know if he asked for if before, but I saw the sadness in his eyes when he asked about it. “Uncle Nicolus and I planned on us building one together this weekend. We wanted it to be a surprise, but I guess telling you now is s

  • Our House of Cards: He Thought He Left Me with Nothing   CHAPTER 31– THE PAIN IN HIS EYES

    KORA Because I didn’t know where Derick lived, the police contacted his lawyer. Derick kicked me out of the house and was planning to move into our home with Vera after the divorce. Well, he had already moved her in before the ink even dried on the papers. But when I called the old butler, he told me he was not at house.“The lawyer has given us his address; we are going there now.” I had presented the officers with our divorce agreement as well as the separate agreement we signed where Derick signed away his parental rights. A case of kidnapping had been opened, and his lawyer was trying to get me to drop the charges. Saying Derick acted impulsively because he missed his son.I almost laughed, Derick didn’t miss Noah, he didn’t even know him. All he knew was that Noah had his blood running through his veins, nothing more. “Mr Vance can explain that to us when you see him. Now please, led the way.” We got into our respective cars and followed the lawyer to Derick’s house.The one he

  • Our House of Cards: He Thought He Left Me with Nothing   CHAPTER 30– TIME WITH MY SON

    DERICK I watched my son play on the carpet with no care in the world. Seeing him like that made me think of a time I played with him. I tried to recall but the only thing that came to mind were all the gifts I got him. Even those eventually stopped. I stared at Noah now wondering why he trusted me when I went to pick him up. Was it only because I was his father? was that enough for him to trust me?“Noah.” He lifted his head looking at me with those bright eyes of his. Why did I never notice how much he looked like me, even those eyes were mine. “Are you hungry?” the light in his eyes faded. He lowered his head playing with his fingers. “Are you going to send me away after I eat?” I stared at him; it was my first time spending time with him like that.Why would he think I would send him away. “Daddy, I will not fight Lilly for you anymore. Can you stay with me a little longer?” I was stanned. I stared at him. a moment came to mind uninvited. It was his birthday, but Vera called sayin

  • Our House of Cards: He Thought He Left Me with Nothing   CHAPTER 29– KIDNAPPING

    KORA “I am beginning to think you brought me here to make me jealous.” Lucas complained. We were at the boutique, and I was choosing a dress to wear for my date with Nicolus. I asked him to come with me to help me choose because I had no one else to ask. It wasn’t because I wanted to make him jealous, I simply wanted his opinion.“I am sure Nicolus is going to feel the same way when I ask him to choose a dress for our date.” Lucas grinned. I raised an eyebrow eying him suspiciously. “What are you thinking?” He shrugged. “Lucas.” He laughed. “Just choose something spectacular for our date, I want him green with envy.” I laughed; he was being childish.“Am serious, I can’t have him outdo me.” I chuckled shaking my head. He volunteered to stay with the kids until we came back. I appreciated that, he was jealous that I was going to dinner with Nicolus before him. But that didn’t stop him from offering help and making things easy for me. He even said his emotions were his and not my burde

  • Our House of Cards: He Thought He Left Me with Nothing   CHAPTER 28– HIS TRUESELF

    KORA I stare at him, his jaw tightening. He looked almost offended like he couldn’t believe I had just spoken to him like that. He was not used to it. before, his word was law to me. He stared at me not able to find the words to respond. The woman standing before him was nothing like the Kora he had known. The woman who could have lowered her head, apologised and done everything possible to avoid upsetting him.The woman in front of him didn’t avoid his gaze or lowered her head. She looked him straight in the eyes. His grip tightened on my jacket. “Don’t get too comfortable, Kora. Whatever money you have now, whatever men are standing behind you. don’t forget that I know you better than anyone.” I glanced down at the hand gripping my jacket then back at his face.“Then perhaps you should remember what you know about me, Derick. I spent years building a company with you. I know exactly how much it takes to destroy one.” He released my collar. I straightened my jacket, completely unfaz
