“They are what? You mean…” Derek asked shockingly, his lips pursed in thoughts, his eyes widened. “I'm afraid, Yes! That's the information I got,” Jaden answered, his voice low. Derek exhaled deeply, “that explains it all, no wonder the hate is heavy. But how come Mr Williams is talking about taking over the position. I guess they are fighting amongst themselves!” Derek said suspiciously with a slow nod. “I will talk to you later, make arrangements for my training ground!” Derek instructed quickly and ended the call. He raised his eyebrows slightly, narrowing his eyes. “It's all making sense now! So Mr Robinson is dad's cousin? How come I didn't know him and Dad never mentioned him to me?” Derek thought to himself, his eyes darting sideways in thoughts. He exhaled deeply and continued with what he was doing, preparing for a training section with one of his dad's oldest friend. It was part of the last message his dad sent to Jaden before his demise. “Now I have a lot of plans, bu

“Please, can you all leave the room for a while,” the doctor's words echoed through the whole room, leaving everyone of them in panic. “Doctor please, she should be alright,” Maureen cried while Derek watched them all, slightly shaking his head, he exhaled deeply and left the room. The other followed immediately, Just then Nicole badged into the hospital, breathing heavily. “How is she doing?” he asked immediately, sitting between Maureen and her sister Steph. “I came as soon as you called, is there any sign of relief?” He added innocently, holding Maureen's hands. Steph hissed and went to sit with her father, just some distance away from Derek. Maureen's cry went louder as she saw Nicole, “She doesn't seem fine but I hope she will be fine,” she muttered bitterly, clutching his hands tightly. Derek watched Nicole in disgust, not because he was with Maureen but because of his perfect pretense. Something crossed his mind immediately, “could it be that Nicole is working directly fo

Before Derek could turn and look back again, the man was already gone. “Not seen that face before,” Derek muttered to himself, tilting his head to one side as he left for the room where Alexander and his people were. On reaching the door, he heard their whispers, “how sure are you he was not involved, how exactly did he know the exact direction of the bullet,” Maureen mumbled sarcastically, Derek scoffed silently, waving his head at how ungrateful she still remains. “You really have a bad character, how could you say such a thing about someone who risked his life to save yours? What if the bullet got him? because he narrowly escaped it,” Steph threw at Maureen angrily, hissing at her. “Will you both shut up and allow me to think,” Mr Alexander fired at both of them furiously, and the whole room went quiet. Derek knocked softly and entered. “I think everyone has left, you can now continue with every other thing,” he muttered quietly and turned to leave. “Thank you,” Mr Alexander

Zilot stared at him for long, like he could see through his eyes. “I can't answer you that question!” He blurted out nervously, his head tilted down. Derek scoffed slightly, nodding his head sharply. “I see you and Nicole are working for the same person! Because this was the exact response Nicole gave!” He mumbled silently to himself, turning his back on him. “More like you guys swore to protect your boss, more than yourselves!” Derek muttered casually, a quick smirk crossed his lips. “This is my father's business, I have every right to handle it the way I want. It's something I have been doing for years, so you can't stop me!” Zilot fired at him, still holding his bleeding shoulders. “Oh really!” Derek whispered dangerously, a slow smirk spread through Derek's face, as he turned to him immediately, leaning closer as he pulled out his blade and slit his left hand, separating them into two. “Argh! No……!” Zilot screamed in pain, as blood gushed out of his hand, he watched the remai

Derek came home exhausted with blood stains on his arm. He applied some medication and wrapped it up. Just as he was about to go shower, his phone rang. It was Maureen, “I guess she just found out,” he mumbled to himself, ignoring the call. But after a few more rings, he paused, turned back and went to pick up the call. “Hey, I know this is so absurd but I need your help at the company! I need to visit the hospital, so I need you to be here!” She said reluctantly, Derek looked at his phone screen and put the phone back on his ears. “Look if anything happens to this baby, it's all your fault. You are becoming so nonchalant these days!” She added again, without even hearing from him. Derek ended the call without any reply, and went to take his shower. “She should have told her so sweet boyfriend, why is she calling me?” Derek hissed under his breath, dressing up to go to the office. He picked up his phone and dialed Jaden's number. “I need you to prepare nine strong men for me,

“Why didn't you inform me Sera?” Maureen yelled at her angrily, as she stormed out of the room. She dialed Derek's phone number but he didn't pick up. “I told you that your days here has been numbered! You think I was joking?” She added angrily, still dialing Derek's number, she sat on the couch and crossed her legs in frustration. Immediately Derek left Maureen's house, he went straight to the training ground. Jaden was there, sweating profusely like he had been working for hours. He examined the men one after the other, and nodded slowly. “They are not bad at all!” He muttered in satisfaction. “What took you so long? I thought you wouldn't come again,” Jaden asked curiously, standing up from where he sat. “A lot has been happening lately and they all seem to be amusing me,” he replied sharply, running his hands through his hair. He got ready for training. “I need to set up a spy Mr Robinson house! Do you know anyone who can handle such task?” Derek asked Jaden, wiping the swea

Derek couldn't believe his eyes, he was shocked beyond words. “How can this be?” He mumbled to himself, his chest tightened. It was his highest shock in life. “What is his relationship with these people,” he asked himself curiously, his eyes darting anxiously, he felt like dragging him out to ask him a lot of questions. “I get my informations from the right source!” He remembered Jaden's words always and his jaw dropped. “Was this what he meant by the right source?” He whispered, watching him walk in without stress. Derek waited patiently to hear anything from Mr Alexander's phone but it was all silence. Just when he had given up, and turned to go, he paused. He heard his voice, Mr Alexander has just finished answering calls and it didn't end, so his voice was at the background of the call. “How much do you know about your son in-law?” His voice came, deep and cold. Mr Alexander didn't answer, Derek guessed he was surprised at the question. “He is just a frustrated poor man, wh

Derek laughed scornfully after Jaden ended the call. “Now, I see why you are always, with the right information!” He muttered to himself silently. The next morning Derek woke up very worried, as he sat on the edge of his bed thinking heavily. Just then a message popped on his phone, it was from Nicole and it had a picture attached to it. He narrowed his eyes but was not surprised. “What is it this time around? Going for a weekend vacation?” He mumbled bitterly, and just like he guessed, he was so right. “A weekend away with the one you love, who loves me more” The message read, and Derek scoffed. “I give her to you for free, just don't hurt my child,” he warned silently and hissed. He opened the picture, and there was Maureen and Nicole entangled in each other's embrace even with her big stomach. “She has no shame at all, even with her pregnancy she still messes around! I pity you even more Nicole,” he cursed under his breath and stood up. He took out a pen and paper, to set ou

Immediately the doctor said “but” that was when Derek rushed him, his eyes sharp and scary at the same time. “But what doctor?” Derek asked sharply before anyone else could talk. The Doctor exhaled deeply, bowing slowly. “We lost the baby!” He finally spoke up, holding Derek's hand in comfort. Steph bursted out in tears again, she turned immediately and hugged Derek to calm him down. Mr Alexander staggered backwards and slumped on the seat close by. Derek's feet stood frozen, he lacked the right expression at the moment. He raised his head to meet Nicole's gaze, words filled his mouth but he couldn't talk. He exhaled heavily, Steph rubbed his back while the doctor let go of his hands and walked away. Derek walked slowly towards the door, staring at Maureen from the door. He slowly turned towards Nicole who took steps backward as he approached. “Stay still!” He whispered with a very dangerous look, Nicole's arms trembled immediately, not because he was afraid but because, at that

Derek ended the call and laughed out loud, “Run? From who exactly? Each and everyone of them must pay for their involvement and sins!” He mumbled with narrowed eyes. “Including Jaden, he must pay for lying to me, and still lying till now!” He added, with a bitter laugh. “I mean does he think I'm dumb or a child, he stares into my eyes and lies?” He spoke bitterly, waving his head in disbelief. Derek drove off that evening to make an inquiry for a removable human-like face mask usually called a prosthetic mask. “I will need a very convincing one to apply for the recruiting, but what if it pulls out?” He thought to himself, pressing his lips together in a thin line. “Let's try it out first!” He insisted to himself and continued driving. Meanwhile his phone rang, one of the men he kept in charge to monitor Alexander's family was calling. “Hello Sir, She's awake and sound,” he spoke, immediately he picked up. Derek exhaled in relief, raising his eyebrows slightly. “Can she stand, tal
