CHAPTER 10Walter nodded, letting out a deep, rich chuckle. “Why not? You are my son. Whatever is mine is yours. Please, come. Right here, sign it.”David stepped forward, grabbed the pen, stole a glance at Walter who nodded, approving him to sign, then he finally penned down his signature on the document.Walter took the documents, scanning them, ensuring they were properly signed.He nodded. “Perfect," he said. He then turned to face the manager. “As you already know, he's my son. So from henceforth, he owns this place, he'll be the one supervising every single thing."The hush in the room continued as everyone watched with bewildered eyes, hands covering their mouths.Only Walter spoke.David stood there, everything seeming surreal.But it was really happening.The manager nodded vigorously, her throat dried with words. She didn't know what to say.Someone whom she just fired a few minutes ago is now the chairman of this multi-million dollar restaurant.Life.It has its way of doin

Chapter 9David slowly took a look—Boom!It was true.Same two letters. Nothing changed.The same way it was written on his hand, that was the same way it was on this man’s hand. Stylishly. No difference.Others drew close to have a look too.They staggered backward.“It's the same. No difference.”"That's his Dad.”"Wow!”Eyes flew wide open, hands flying to cover mouths.“You…..you are my dad? H—how?David's body weakened instantly. It was as if a bolt of lightning struck him.He was utterly short of words.“I know this may be difficult to believe but I'm your father. Walter Taylor,” Walter uttered, nodding his head. “These two letters (DT) drawn here represent your name, “David Taylor". My mother and I have it drawn there. Right on your left hand. But did mine in remembrance of you after I left your mother."His voice broke as he started to explain, a trace of sorrow and deep regret in his expression. “Didn’t mean to leave my wife, your mother all alone with you. Things got so tou

CHAPTER 8 Hearing that, the staff lady who had rushed down when she heard the noise smiled. “The worst is going to happen to him today. Foolish boy!” David's close pal at work, shook his head, feeling pity. “Warned him not to go. Look what he’s doing to himself.” “But S—-” the security leader wanted to argue. "I said, drop him down.” He swallowed hard and nodded. As David was slowly been taken down as ordered—- Boom! The man saw something around his hand. Two embedded letters. It was rightly written on David’s left hand. Bold. Clear. Visible to read. He instinctively staggered backward. One of the bodyguards caught him immediately. The customers exchanged glances. Even David was shocked as he stared at the man. “Are you okay, Sir? Need some water?” one of his men asked, worried and concerned. Mr. Walter shook his head. "No. I'm fine. No need.” His bodyguard swallowed hard, nodding even though worry was still etched on his face. Walter reluctantly walked forward, stand

Chapter 7 The telephone in her office started to ring, interrupting the moment. The manager brushed David off and picked it up. “Ma, Mr. Walter is here already.” Her heart jumped before dropping down. “Alright. Thank you. I'll be there right away." She dropped the telephone down and then turned to David. "He's here already, you have to leave,” she commanded with panic in her voice. But David was adamant. He was still on his knees, begging. “Please, Ma, don't do this to me. I've no place to go. Everything has been taken away from me. This is my only hope of survival. Please." But it was too late—- Because the manager had grabbed back the telephone, dialing a number. “Yes. Come to my office right away. Come with some other security guards. Be fast." Not up to five minutes until the call got disconnected, the door swung open. Security guards dressed in uniformed outfits strode inside, batons in their hands. The leader stepped forward and bowed. “Ma, you called.” She nodded
Chapter 6
CHAPTER 6 An hour later…. A cab slowly stopped in front of a towering building and the door opened. David hurriedly stepped out, his heart pounding against his chest–not from Skyler's betrayal anymore but from the fear of losing his job. Right now, this job is his only hope of survival. Skyler had not only betrayed him, but had also set his belongings on fire. If he loses his job now, he'll be left with nothing, wandering on the street, eating crumbs like a slumdog. Quickly, David reached into his pocket, hoping to grab a buck to pay the driver. However, nothing came out. He dug deeply for the second, expecting to see something yet nothing. “Damn it! Got no bucks on me.” He cursed under his breath, slamming his hand against his leg, sweat forming on his forehead. He lowered his gaze, shame and embarrassment covering his face as he opened his mouth to speak to the driver. The driver, dressed in a black, slightly shabby jacket, hands wrapped against the steering wheel, patien

CHAPTER 5Skyler huffed as David finally left, her chest dropping in a deep relief.She then turned, her gaze landing on Everett who sat on the bed with a tissue paper, wiping his bloody nose."Damn, that bastard's something else,” Everett growled. “Thought you said he's a coward. How the hell does his punch have so much weight?"Skyler sat beside him. "I'm sorry, Everett. Had no idea he had turned into a devouring animal. Was stunned."She was reluctant. “But why did you have to text him to come over to the house, Everett?" Skyler asked, disappointed. "Never wanted him to find out this way.”Everett grabbed a glass of water from the table nearby, trashing the tissue paper on the ground. He sipped."But why, Skyler?” Everett asked. "Besides, it doesn't matter how he finds out. He doesn't even deserve an explanation."Sklyer didn’t look at him. She didn’t even reply.Everett sipped the glass of water again before placing it back down on the table.He shifted closer to Skyler on the bed
