These senior members had absolute say among the rich and powerful of Worchester City and were conservative, to say the least. News that Thaddeus stirred a huge commotion for a woman did not sit well with them, and Thaddeus would be getting it once he returned. “Sir, you’ll need to go back and have a sit-down with them. They are demanding answers on this. Otherwise, they won’t hesitate to put you before a court martial.”Thaddeus scoffed, not taking the matter seriously. The Fontaines dominated among the four major families in Worchester City, and Thaddeus was the leader of the Fontaine family. Together, the other families carried less than a third of the Fontaines’ esteem. All eyes were on Thaddeus, waiting for the moment he would make a wrong move. Here came their chance. These senile old forks had gathered in the COC meeting room and were all over Master Fontaine from the moment the coast was on lockdown. Apparently, Thaddeus’s order was a huge blow to Worchester City’s sea fr

Mona’s instincts were telling her to check out the COC meeting room in the back garden. So she traversed through the garden and made it to the backyard, knowing she would find the COC meeting room there. The four major families in Worchester City would meet there and discuss the rise of any major issue. Mona continued her journey forward, but before she could get close, she took notice of a row of people sitting inside the meeting room. Her heart sank as a bad feeling overcame her. Marcus happened to walk out of the COC meeting room. Seeing that she was approaching, Marcus immediately drew close to her. He pulled Mona to the side and quietly gave her the heads-up. “You should head back, Ms. Ortega. Mr. Fontaine told me to arrange your transport home once you’re awake. Your kids are missing you, and it’s a bad time for you to be here.” “Why is it a bad time?” Mona could tell from Marcus’s face that he was hiding something from her. She looked past Marcus’s shoulder at the

Once the few elders had their chance in reading the file on the vessel, Thaddeus began to state the facts. “The vessel’s port of origin was Neuffield, and 80% of its personnel on board is local to Neuffield. According to them, the vessel belongs to Oceania Travel Management Ltd. “The travel company is owned by the richest family in Neuffield – the Fosters. “I’m sure everybody is familiar with Neuffield’s Fosters. James Foster built his empire in Neuffield from the ground up. “The vessel’s primary use is to transport passengers to holiday destinations, but on the day of my wife’s abduction, it carried cargo in the opposite direction of its usual route. Instead of setting course for the Atlantic, it headed toward Southeast Asia. “It proves that it was a last-minute change to the vessel’s route, and the motive was an abduction.“The decision-making had to be at the management level of the Foster Group. In other words, someone high up the senior ladder in the Foster Group planne

There was no longer a solid tenderness in Thaddeus’s eyes. Instead, cautiousness and indistinct concern hid behind those pupils. What was he afraid of? Mona looked into his eyes, getting the sense that he was hiding something from her. He was afraid that what they had would be gone when the truth came out. In other words, there was some truth to Victor’s words.Victor got up from the ground and adjusted his tie. He pointed at Thaddeus and righteously uttered, “He was bitter about his father’s affair, so he tried to get rid of Mona. I would secure holdings in the family business from my marriage alliance with the Grahams and earn a spot on the board of directors, so his concern was that I would be a threat to his standing. That’s the truth behind my uncle’s motives.”Thaddeus narrowed his eyes and scoffed. “That’s absurd. Why would I put the coast on lockdown if I were out to get you? The vessel belongs to the Fosters. I don’t have the right to decide the sailing route. How do y

Master Fontaine’s eyes lit up. Since it came from Mona, it must be true. So he took it seriously this time. The old man lost his head to bliss, not knowing what to say. “It’s true… It’s true… The kids will carry on the family line.”“B*stard! I want to hear it from you. Are the children Mona’s and yours?” Still doubtful, Master Fontaine turned to Thaddeus for confirmation. “Yes.” Thaddeus nodded his head. The definite answer brought Master Fontaine back to reality from the burst of joy. God knew what was going through the old man’s head as he kept switching between sitting and standing. It then struck Master Fontaine to ask where the children were. “I want to see them.” “They have been living in Worchester City. I have not brought them to meet you yet because the kids have not learned about their ancestry. I was worried you would not be able to accept them.” “Why wouldn’t I accept them? I love kids. Bring them over as soon as you can. I want to meet with them. They are
