Luts eyes parted open. He took a quick pick at his surroundings and noticed that he could not tell where he was.
He was somehow confused for quite a while. He was still looking around for quite a while, trying hard to figure out how he had gotten there in the first place.
Memories flooded through his head. Memories that he would never want to remember again and he took a larger gulp.
'Could it be that I am dead?' He asked himself in his mind.
'But this place isn't looking like heaven. Or was that also a lie?.' He thought once again, his head pacing through the outlines of the room where he found himself.
There was a machine making very annoying beeping sounds. The place looked quite expensive and extravagant too.
He tried to get up from the bed but then, a surge of pain welled up throughout his spine making him fall back to the bed.
It was at this bed that he noticed that he was at the hospital. But he wasn't even worried about himself, rather he was worried about his sister.
First, she had found out about the kidney transplant already, and apart from that, taking him to such a large facility, there was no way that they would be able to pay for it.
His heart raced faster regretting putting her in such a sister, especially for someone Like Ariel who wasn't even worth his time.
Soon enough, the noise that he had made while he was trying to get up from the bed had attracted attention.
The door soon parted open and her sister walked in. He was grateful to see that his sister was fine.
"I'm sorry sister for not being there for you and hiding everything away from you." He quickly apologized...
"You don't have to be a young master." She quickly responded with her head bowed. He didn't think too much about it until he eventually saw her bowing before him.
"What are you doing?" He inquired with knitted brows.
"I'm only paying homage to you young master." She replied and it dawned on him the way that she had been moving all this while..
Was she that angry?
He regretted every single thing now and wished that he never knew Ariel in the first place. Now his sister was treating him more like an outcast.
"I know that I have wronged your sister. I should have told you about it." But it wasn't looking like she was joking.
"You don't have to apologize to me young master." She responded by pulling backwards a little bit..
He put on the little baby look, one that was enough to melt her heart at any time and was sure she was going to give up with the acting pretty soon.
But rather, she was stiff right on the spot without a trace of emotion making his heart numb. More like a robot. The truth Washing over him like a bucket of icy water.
It wasn't a joke.
The words suddenly threw him off balance and his heart seemed to move right from its place.
"Young master!" The words resounded in his head multiple times
He pinched himself hard thinking that he was dreaming but the sight before him was so true. The racing of his heart shot up.
It was until this point that Lut noticed that something was wrong. When she first walked into the place, she was stiff.
And now she was referring to him as a young master? Multiple thoughts ran through his head for quite a while.
But soon enough, he threw the thoughts away from his head. It was a mistake and that could be the only explanation for it.
"Tell me that you are teasing me sis." He said with his heart shaking right in place.
"I won't dare young master." She said once again.
This time, it was no longer sounding like a joke since from the looks that were hovering on her face, she was looking really serious.
"I know I did something really bad but you should stop calling me that. Please." He said. His sister was the last person that he had in the world now.
"Mia, you should leave now. I want to have a few words with him." A voice came from the door and a man who was dressed in a classic suit walked right into the place.
And once again, she bowed before she went ahead to say.
"Oka master. I will do as you have said." She bowed once again before she left the hall.
For a while, Lut was confused as to what was going on around him. Could it be that he had hit his head so hard on the wall that he was beginning to see images in his head?
Using his sharp nails, he pinched himself hard until he was beginning to bleed. But it didn't matter to him. He only wanted the images that were before him to disappear.
The middle-aged man noticed what he was doing and quickly stepped on him.
"You should stop doing that Lut. It's time for you to know the truth." He said but his words weren't making him less confused than he was already.
What truth was he suddenly talking about?
Could it be that his sister had begged money from him and he had taken her in as his slave? If this was the case, he was never going to forgive himself.
He quickly reached Forward. If he had been able to fall on his knees and apologize, he would have done that quite a while ago.
"My sister has nothing to do with this. I am the one that got myself into trouble. If you need to take it out on anyone, it should be me. He added once again.
He was in so much panic that he didn't notice the smile that was hovering on the face of the man.
"I know what I am about to say is going to be more of a shock to you. But it would be better if you knew about it now, she is not your sister." The middle-aged man was finally able to muster up all the courage that he had in him and said.
At first, rumbles of shock ran through the spine of Lut and his lips were still far apart as he continued to stare at the space that was right before him.
Finally, he was able to get over the shocks and he soon burst out into laughter.
"Sis. Mia isn't my sister?" He laughed even harder.
But the man didn't seem like he was joking.
"I'm a serious lut." He said.
Lut was trying to be respectful, trying as much as he could to subdue the anger that was beginning to rise deep in the inside of him
This was the person that he had known all his life, right after the death of his mother and their Father left them. How would he say such a thing?
"I am sorry sir but you must be mistaken. We are the most related person that you would ever know." He replied.
He wanted to leave and go find his sister but then, before they could even get to do that, the door split open and Mia walked Forward.
Lut face lit up immediately after he saw her. And he wished that he could give her a warm hug but already knew that would not be possible so he decided to cut the case and go straight to his point.
"Sister Mia. Did you hear what this man is saying? He said that you are not my sister. Isn't that absurd?" He blotted out.
But his sister gave him the biggest shock of his life when he finally went ahead to say.
"He is telling the truth and you should listen to him. I am not your sister and I am only a maid. He is your father." She announced, snapping Lut deep into the world of his shocks.

Making amends
She could cover her bills if Lutenant bluntly refused to. She glanced at him, but he was totally ignoring them, his eyes on his phone, as though their discussion didn't exist. She could feel the unspoken anger even though he hadn't said anything. “Well, we'll have to use the bus first. It will take us down to the consortium, where we'll get our cars and go down to the restaurant. Have you grabbed your things?” “Yes, I have. Everything is in this bag.” Claudia muttered, touching the bag that was slung over her shoulder. The bus approached the group of three, parking at a distance ahead of them. For the first time since Claudia had interrupted their discussion, Lut spoke. “Are we ready?” Nodding, Aurora found herself wondering if Lutenant's anger towards her was because of her persistent need to push herself forward, or if there was something else attached. * For the first time in days, Richard made it to
After hours
By the time the sun had set and the rest of the team members who had come to the outskirts had begun to leave for their various homes, Aurora was hungry and aching so badly for her bed. She smiled at Lutenant, who seemed to the brightest one of them all, how he was still smiling even after such a long day was baffling. To her, it was what made him their superior. Because she couldn't even imagine herself smiling after such a tiring day. “So, what do you say? What is your suggestion? Which buildings do we start working on first?” Aurora almost told him that she performed better as a worker when her stomach was filled and she had eaten, but decided to clamp down on her words by smiling instead before replying. “Definitely the administrative building. It looks okay, but a little painting needs to be done. We're going to be having a lot of clients come in, right? If that is the case we need to make it look very good, comfortable for ever
Bail or betrayal
Her social life back in college was good. It was just that life grew serious after a while, and she retreated into her shell.But she always tried to have fun whenever she could.“We're hoping there are no damages whatsoever to this company, right, Mr Frederickson? Tricking us has its consequences, you know.”It was one of the lawyers, a stern faced man called Terry speaking.Mr Fredrickson shook his head.“I would never do that. I support whatever Lutenant is about to do here and respect him and his company way too much. I can't do that.”“Good. If that is the case, you can sign the final document releasing the company which was once yours to its new owner.”The scribbling was done in a few minutes.Aurora watched Lut stand to his feet, a spring in his step. She could literally see the happiness on his face and his every movement.“Thank you for this, Mr Fredrickson. I cherish this opportunity to lead your company, and trust me when I say I will do my best to maintain the standard yo
The take over
Moving in the bus alongside two lawyers from Jimmy's law firm, which was the firm that his company always patronized, Lutenant James felt ready for what was the final lap of the company he had just purchased.He wasn't happy. In fact, he was elated.He had seen what he was about to do grow from an idea to reality. And without doubt, he was going to do everything in his power to make sure that the company got the status that he was aiming for.Next to him was Aurora, who was gradually sipping her iced tea.Staring at her lips briefly, he knew that trying to forget that he had kissed her during Natalie's housewarming party was never going to happen.The kiss was at the back of his mind, reoccurring, time and time again no matter how hard he tried to avoid it. It seemed inevitable.“You've looked at my tea so much that I'm beginning to worry you might want a taste.”He laughed, running a hand through his hair.“I admit that I should've brought something along with me, even water at most.
Under the radar
“Oh, I understand you well, sir. But getting in touch with this transport company will do us a lot of favors.” She paused, looking around for heads nodding in agreement, and when she saw it, she continued speaking. “The consortium is a huge institution, and I know that at one point or the other, we're going to need multiple means of transportation. This is where they come in.” It was just a contribution, but Lut felt worried. Why was it looking as though she had sabotaged the meeting? He couldn't wait to end it. Claudia always succeeded in making him so nervous no matter how hard he tried to hide it. “That's a brilliant contribution, Claudia. I like that. Oh,” Lut added, smiling and raising his hands as though it was clasped in prayer. “Forgive me for not introducing her sooner. Everyone, this is Claudia, our new intern. She's working under Aurora for the moment, so you're going to be seeing a lot of her and hearing a lot of those b
Work force workshop
Because director Edward had given her the permission to be under Aurora, Claudia had followed her to the hall where executives had their meetings. Seeing her there made Lutenant uncomfortable, but he didn't show it. Instead, he tried to focus on the team members that Aurora had chosen. They were all good workers. Ranging from Mr Green, to Doctor Gregory, Alicia, Aurora herself, and Mr Bedford. Lutenant had worked with them previously on the Deja Vu project, and could attest to how hardworking and creative they were. He needed people like them by his side if he wanted the new company he had just purchased to move forward. “Thank you all for coming here. I'll try my best to be as brief as possible because in an hour or two, we'll be on our way to the outskirts where y'all will take your first tour around the company we have just bought.” He paused, looking at each and everyone of them. He knew Claudia's eyes w
