While at work she had had an unsettling feeling and had called her parents to see if they were okay and to her relief, they were fine. Whenever she has that kind of feeling, something terrible would happen. Alex was somewhat relieved yet she was filled with fear because she knew that something bad was to happen if not that day, next, or maybe the upper day, her instincts had never lied to her. Could not do much work so she left to hurry home unless she gets home and sees everyone is okay, then she would know that all is okay but until then. Coming home and meeting things the way they wear confirmed her suspicions, she was trembling and could not get herself inside. Alex had calmed down and took a deep breath then went inside to meet the most gruesome sight ever. Her brain was forced to assimilate what her eyes saw. Her parents were lying in their own pools of blood with several open wounds from bullets here and there, her brother was lying unconsciously by her mothe

Josh finally got to his grandfather's room after he knocked countless times and the door was not opened. He let himself in and found his grandfather absent from the room. He heard the shower running and knew at once that he was taking a shower. He chuckled at how weird his grandfather's room is. He has got it all pinky like a lady's room and the funny part is when his grandma was alive, she got her room blues. Josh has wondered why they are the opposite of what they are. He has always seen his family as a weird one, how can one of them be getting married tomorrow and his parents are nowhere to be found? His father would prefer to tour around with his mother than to be home and if not that grandfather has given them the order to be home, they might have spent Christmas in London. He is not surprised though, since he was a kid, it's been his grandfather looking after him and Luke and he has gotten used to the way his parents live their lives but it still baffles him sometime

Josh never expected what happened to him next. He opened the bathroom door with a towel tied around his waist and water dripping around his body and disappearing into his towel. Alex targeted him and the moment he opened the door, she emptied the water on him, it was not just any water but cold water. Josh gasped and clenched his fist. " What's wrong with you young lady, are you crazy?" Alex smirked and dropped the bowl on the floor. "You are not the only one who could play this game. Don't try me next time or what I will serve you will be bigger than what you saw. Mr. Josh Bleak, dare me not" She said and walked out of the room, she had stepped out but she returned. "Don't forget to get the bowl to the kitchen, I love you darling" She blew kisses to him and closed the door. Once she was outside, she breathed in and released the air she had been holding. Dealing with Josh will require a lot of strength from her side. If she eventually marri

Luke kept observing her as she scanned the whole dishes, he is not surprised to see the look of surprise on her face. He knows where she is coming from and knows that she can't afford most of the necessities of life. He won't blame her that she had to grab this opportunity to be married into his Family, it's not easy to resist the urge of being wealthy even when you know you will be treated like a piece of wood. Senior Bleak could not help but look from one person to another, he was amused by the expression on Alex's face. It looks like she is afraid of the dishes. He chuckled and smiled, the lady is cute and she would make a good wife for his grandson, Josh. He wondered why Luke had to let go of such a gem. "I am starving, can we eat now? Too much drooling over feed shows how poor one is"Luke said and eyed Alex, obviously, he was referring to Alex. Alex, who knew who he was referring to, kept a straight face. "Let the dog continue to bark"She thought and rolled her e

Ander was seen pacing around in his hostel room, he can't seem to reach his big sis and he is really worried. First, she did not call as usual, and now, her number had been unreachable. He is so worried that something might have happened to her. He was supposed to be home but because of his exams, he had to extend his going home to his sis till tomorrow which he had mentioned to Alex. "Sis, I am so worried about you, I hope you are safe. I will keep trying your phone and I promise you first thing tomorrow, I will be home for Christmas, just get your phone available" Worries were written all over his face, he tried the line again and the network provider said the same thing they have been telling him for the past hour. Ander had no choice but to go to bed hoping tomorrow, things will be okay. ***"*** Josh was the last person to leave the dining room, after he left, the maids had to clear the dining table amidst gossip. The maids who prepared
