Chapter Eleven
"He was such a great man." An elderly woman recounted, tears streaming down her face. "When I was ailing and had no one by side, he proved a thousand."Her words tend to open a gulf of tears from many of the people who were standing across the private field where the body of the Old Sir Benjamin was laid. It was his funeral and every member of the family was present. As the elderly woman had opened the floor for commentaries, many more chimed in naturally. "Oh Father!!!" Lydia suddenly flung herself to the ground, creating a scene. As soon as she did this, there were a couple of the family members whose facial expressions contoured, mostly in sneer to her reaction. "Why did you do this to me?" Lydia continued, rolling herself on the ground, almost hitting her face against the burial monument. "You know I can't survive without you." She continued. "After all these years, father. You promised never to leave me alone.""Oh, mother, please." Khloe quickly ran to the aid of her mother
Chapter Twelve
"Where do you think you are going to?" Khloe suddenly sprang at the doctor. The doctor was forced to a halt, as the fiery panther prowled at him. Her eyes were as wild as that of a smitten animal. "I'm done with my job here, and with the family. I should be on my way." The doctor replied firmly, looking quite unfazed. "What was that rubbish and trash that you just read?" She snarled. "From where did you get it from? Did you say that grandfather indeed wrote that?" "No, he didn't." The doctor replied. "But his words were conveyed to me and I wrote them down." "Imagine this useless junk!" Khloe yelled, turning to the rest of the family. The news of the lawyer had caught the rest of the family off guard, too. They were shocked that the old man would have entrusted his assets to the most useless son-in-law in the history of the family. Yet some of them couldn't help but be glad that eventually, Anna didn't get anything, and the overbearing mother would eventually get a hang. "How
Chapter Thirteen
They found it hard to process what the janitor had just said. Flora Hulbert? The most important and influential lady in the continent? She was offended by a mere sheriff of Donman District?Even the commissioner of police would not dare to irritate Flora, let alone offend her. Truly, the Sheriff deserved whatever came his way for stepping in the way of such an influential lady. For Anna, the freezing didn't last long. After all, she wasn't here for the Sheriff but Davien. She turned away immediately, "I'm leaving." She said. While they were in the car, Khloe couldn't get what the cleaner had said off her mind. "The Machkerson family?" Khloe muttered, her face already a mess of confusion. "What business does a small district like Donman have with such a family?" She wondered. "He must have chewed more than he can swallow. Not even the patriach of the top three families could help him from this situation." Vincent paused for a moment. "Even the Lady Phoenix, who is the heiress of
Chapter Fourteen
Seeing the stern look on Davien's face, Flora Hulbert didn't bother to dispute his words. His words were sacred to her. "Please promise me this, Young Master." Flora asked with sincerity.Davien gazed at her without saying a word. "Whenever a need rises for my help, you'll call me." She asked. "Alright." He replied, knowing that if he didn't agree, she would only keep pestering him. "Allow me to drop you off then." She added, leading the way. Davien remained immovable. Flora had taken a few steps become she returned to her senses, realizing that there were no steps tracking hers. When she turned, she saw the look on Davien's face. She instantly knew what he meant. Davien was a man of few words. His facial expression was enough to drop her on her face and have her grappling for mercy. He was indeed the spitting image of the Old Master. She didn't want to offend him. "I'll prepare a car for you then." Flora replied. "One of those old slaggers will drive you if you want."Davien
Chapter Fifteen
"Do you like this hotel, Sir?" Flora asked on the video call. "It is one of the small franchises of our consortium. If you don't like it, I can have the General Manager of Totel come pick you up right now. There suite is topnotch."Although Grimmings Hotel was one of the most decent hotels in the country, yet it falls in class to Totel. Totel was one of the top three hotels in the country. It had been noted that there were a lot of ambassadors from other countries who chooses Totel as their favorite. "This is decent enough, Flora." Davien replied. "Now leave me be." He ended the call. He understood that she wanted him to have the best treatment but she was already pushing. He had made it known to her already that he wanted to live a low key life. He walked towards the bar in the suite and grabbed himself a bottle of red wine. He had almost popped the bottle before he observed it carefully. "How unusual." He muttered, finding this quite strange and unexpected. Upon choosing a dec
Chapter Sixteen
"Anna?" Davien exclaimed, not believing his eyes. He had to bat his eyes a couple of times to be certain that he was not seeing things. Anna Benjamin? What the hell was she doing here?In fact, that was just one of the numerous questions that he had for her. "How did you find me here?" That was the most important question. Anna scoffed, not answering him first as she walked towards the table. "Why do you look surprised?" She sneered. "What do you think? That a pauper like you would be hard to find?""Anna." Davien wasn't sure of how to react to her hostility. The Anna he used to know, though harsh, still chose her word carefully. But this Anna was outright cursing him out. "If you mention my name again, I swear on my life. I will beat you to death!" She swore. Seeing that his effort to be civil with her was driving straight into the wood, Davien's face knitted. "Have you lost your mind?" He snapped at her. "What?" She couldn't believe her ears. The way she had imagined it in
Chapter Seventeen
For a couple of moments, Davien was lost in thoughts after dropping the call with Flora. "Why did he make me the heir even after I spoke against it?" He wondered. Now it made sense why Anna would track him down to demand for what belonged to her. It was never his interest to lay claim to the assets of Old Sir Benjamin. In fact, if the family were to know his real identity, then they would realise that their family asset was nothing but a drop of water in the Atlantic of his family's. He decided that there were a couple of things that he had do himself. ....Anna Benjamin returned to the Benjamin Villa in tears. Her hair was disheveled and she looked closely to a homeless person. "What the hell!" Vincent jumped on his feet upon spotting her. He had come here to invite Anna officially to the Charity Event by presenting the VIP card to her. And to also let her know that her family company is a step away from glamor. But seeing her looking tattered and shapeless, he just couldn't
Chapter Eighteen
Davien had just returned to his suite after a long day out and was trying to fix himself something to eat. He craved instant noodles and wanted the mix of some drinks to complement it. Suddenly, there came a knock on the door. Just like it was when Anna had come to him. The people who work in the hotel would naturally use the alarm. "Who could it be?" He wondered. If there was one thing that he was very much certain of, it was the fact that it could never be Anna. Not after what he had done to her. In fact, even up to this moment, he didn't feel an iota of pity towards her. Whatever she got, she truly deserved it. Then the alarm rang. First it was a knock, and now the door bell. Davien knew that he couldn't just sit by and do nothing. He got up and walked to the door, "Who is that?" He asked. "Room service." The voice followed after another attempt at the alarm. For the first time, Davien regretted not taking the instruction of Flora to choose a tech-inclined hotel. Right now,
Chapter Nineteen
Davien found no point in putting up a fight. There was nothing he could say that would make any sense to this mob. Khloe has successfully played her way into their minds and made them slaves to her words. He couldn't get them out of this. "He can't even talk!" Someone yelled as they dragged Davien away. "How could he? He would be shameless to ever think of it!""See how gentle and quiet he looks. What a handsome devil!""Handsome my foot! He's grotesque! He should die!!!"Davien was shoved into the car and taken down to the police station. He was immediately detained, given no chance to even say a word. As though he didn't have a chance at life. "How do you feel now, miss?" One of the paramedics who had admitted Khloe to the station lab asked. "I want to go home." Khloe suddenly jumped on her feet. The woman in charge was stunned by the sudden action of Khloe. She looked too fiesty for someone who has truly gone through that trauma. "You shouldn't think of going anywhere for no
Chapter Twenty
Davien had his head in between his legs as he sat inside the cell. The memory of what happened to him in the past came rushing back. How Anna and co had had him locked up at Donman District for an allegation of stealing a necklace that was a gift. How he had been made to suffer and even ended up drinking a bottle of urine. Having those memories set something off in him and he sprang up to his feet. That was in the past when he didn't know his identity. That was when he thought his life was over. Right now, his life was just getting started. For a fact, he was the most powerful and influential person that this country has ever known. Gone were the days when he would be made to suffer for what he didn't do. He wouldn't allow it this time. He was Davien Ghys Machkerson! The heir of the most powerful and flourishing Machkerson family! All the world will bow at this feet if he says the world!He sprang to his feet instantly at the renewing of the spirit. He walked to the gates and shoo
