CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY The brightness of the sun was enough to scorch their bodies. Hudderson stood firm like a mountain, one arm wrapped around Charlotte ’s waist while held onto a black umbrella above her, shielding her against the hot sun. They were standing in front of the Zordan mansion, a bright smile on Hudderson’s face while Charlotte maintained an awe that lingered for a long time. By the time they arrived that late morning, Hudderson’s family had vanished just like he instructed, leaving the house empty. The sensation of nostalgia crept into his nerves while he stared at the huge mansion with a satisfactory smile on his face. “Welcome to our new home, love. We will live here till we are both gray-haired. Our children and their children shall all grow up in this mansion.” Hudderson said with a confident smile on his face, nodding to affirm his words. Charlotte finally gasped, letting out the feeling of the sensation that had engulfed her ever since she came ou

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY-NINE The tension in the room was increasing by the minute, evidence of the feud that had always existed between the two parties. Hudderson remained calm, eyes on the two brothers who looked like they were going to attack him. He seemed very pleased to see them, maintaining the smirk on his face. Dave who was usually the first to react to such issues moved toward him, and his younger brother Carl followed him at once. “What the hell did you say, Hudderson?! You are sending us out of this place?” “Yes, Dave. You heard right.” Hudderson affirmed his words, nodding to support them. He glanced at Carl with whom he had unfinished business, and decided to get to him later. Hudderson cleared his throat softly, and decided to break the silence in the room as everyone had turned to face him, eager to hear what next he was going to say. “I am glad you all are here, that makes it very easy for me to say what I am about to say to your hearing even though I ha

With his uneasiness still rising at the sight of Hudderson who didn't look like he was there to joke, Harry remained the way he was, unable to utter even a word. “I asked a question, Uncle! Where is Aunt Sabrina?” Hudderson asked, moving closer to Harry, who curled up on the couch, leaning backward in nervousness. “Calm down, Hudderson! She should be around somewhere! Maybe I should go fetch her for you.” Harry said with a shaky tone, trying to find a means to escape. Hudderson stood still, glaring at the middle-aged man whose heartbeat was becoming more aggressive than it was a moment earlier. Apparently, shame was not the only feeling that had engulfed him at that moment. He was also scared to his teeth and struggled with the guilt of his actions. He knew he had done a lot to offend Hudderson and was wary of the day of reckoning coming faster than he had envisaged. “Allow me to go get her for you, Hudderson! I will go tell her that you are here to see

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SEVEN“My name is Elliot Cameron, and I will be your host for today. Today, we have amazing deals for you! So many choices just to satisfy you. We took note of all the reviews and demands you made on the secret website, and we decided to adjust the amount of goods to be purchased.” Elliot was elated, as he spoke to his audience, moving from one corner to the other, displaying his brief stature. There were two bodyguards in similar white suits just like the man at the door, and they looked as though they were robots, standing at the two ends of the large curtain behind the stage. “We know you will be wondering why we had to push the time for the auction closer. Well, you will get to find out really soon. We couldn't wait to show you the juicy deals we have for you tonight! I am sure you are gonna love them!” There was a little murmuring from the people seated at the various tables in the hall, as gestures and utterances of expectations filled the air. “I

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SIX For a while Hudderson was silent, but the old man was eager to hear what he was going to say. The look on his face showed mixed feelings, but the stillness in the living room was making everyone tense. “I was hoping to hear someday that there could be a chance that Hela was still alive. This means that there is hope, Lancel.” Hudderson forced a smile on his face even though the revelation from the old man could mean one of two things. It was either that his sister had been killed by the men who took her or that she was held captive for some reason. He only hoped for the latter. However, since there was only one hard way of finding out, Hudderson pocketed the piece of paper after folding it carefully before he turned to face Lancel who was drenched in perspiration of guilt and remorse. “I wish I had told you earlier, Master Hudderson. I have no excuse for keeping such information from you. Please forgive my cowardice, there

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FIVE Leonard was lost between getting down on his knees and remaining the way he was. It was obvious that he had lost the bet, but he never thought that he was going to lose his dignity as well. If only he had minded his business. Hudderson was in a haste to move on to another activity, but Leonard had to suffer for his utterances, he had to make sure he dealt with him. “Get on your knees, Leo! Kiss my feet!” Hudderson pointed at his shiny shoes, causing Leonard to look around him as though he wasn’t aware that everyone had their eyes on him. He couldn’t handle the fact that angry eyes were glaring at him, and to give them a reason to consider taking it easy on him for his misleading prediction, he decided to do what he was asked to do, leaving with no other option. “Good. Now kiss my feet.” Hudderson said as soon as Leonard had gone down on his knees, taking a few seconds before he placed the second knee on the marble tile. “Hurry up, Leo. I have
