2023-09-16 18:30:00Emile looked in awe and admiration at the back of the man that stood tall in front her, shielding her from the world. Being shielded from the wind and rain… this was a feeling she hadn’t felt in a long time… her eyes were filled and nose sour even though she tried to put on a brave front.
Christopher had no idea what was going on through Emile’s head at this moment; He would have been elated if he knew; only heavens knew how much he wished to see this expression on her face towards him. But at this moment, heavens had no intention of indulging him. He was busy trying to keep them both alive and not get hurt.
In normal circumstances, Christopher wouldn’t even blink in the fight with people of this level of skill even if the ratio was 2 times that of what he was currently facing. But today, with Emile in the mix, he was flustered and easily distracted. However, none of this seem to affect the stars in Emile’s eyes.

Emile thought back to the first time she saw Christopher. She was surprised she could clearly remember him, wearing their university basketball team uniform which was a white with red border T-shirt and shorts. The T-shirt had a bunch of Maple leaves logo on the left side.“Hi, I am Christopher. Mind passing me the ball?” He had a sunny smile as he asked, running up to her. She still remembered looking mesmerized like a fool as Christopher pointed at the ball at her feet “Ball…”“Oh… ball…. ha….ha….” Emile let out a hollow laugh to hide her embarrassment.“He looks delicious.” Abbey giggled next to her after Christopher ran off with the ball. Although he didn’t forget to turn back to look at them a few more times. Their chance encounters over the next 3 years were one too many to be chance now that Emile was looking back. Even so, he was always an absolute gentleman, never making her uncomfortable or crossing boundaries by taking liberties. Their several encounters during her universi

Emile stayed back to take care of Christopher while Abbey left the hospital in the evening promising to come back in the morning.Emile had no idea how she spent the night. After undergoing the sterilization process required to stay in the ICU, Emile stayed by his side…. talking to him…. reflecting on their encounters out loud.... telling him how she regretted not realizing how much he meant to her while she had the chance…. begging him to wake up…. begging him to give her a chance.Abbey arrived early the next morning with breakfast. Emile wasn’t in the mood to eat regardless of how much Abbey compelled her.“How do you plan on looking after him if you don’t have the strength?” Abbey asked in exasperation, not being able to convince her to eat even one mouthful.“I …I…. I am not hungry.” Emile shook her head.“My dear girl, please eat something.” Abbey begged “What will I do if you fall as well?”“Then, who should I take care of? you or him?” Abbey reasoned without giving up. Emile fi

Emile knitted her brows and as she raised her head to look at Christopher in confusion.“What if Daniel comes back? What if he wants to be together with you?”Her affection for Daniel was no secret. Everyone who knew them knew about it; he also knew about the price she paid for it.“I take my life very seriously.” Emile stared intently at Christopher as she spoke “So my choices are never made on a whim.”“Despite how I come across or how others perceive me, I am a very stubborn person.” Emile continued without hesitation “I never look back, nor do I hold others accountable for my choices.”“I hate myself for saying this… but…” Christopher shrugged “I would detest myself if I didn’t.”Emile tilted her head encouraging him to speak.“Do you think Daniel hates you?” Christopher started to reason, ignoring the heartache he was feeling.Emile knitted her brows as she seriously considered the question “Maybe not.”“Actually, he likes you.” Christopher lips twisted uncomfortably “It’s just th

Christopher’s recovery speed was astonishing to the medical team even though they put it down to Dr Barr’s exceptional skills. Although Dr Barr staying back to treat Christopher did surprise everyone, they were genuinely happy to bask in his glory and learn from him.“Son, you are good as gold as long as you care of the wound and not get re-infected.” Dr Barr laughed happily after he finished a thorough examination 3 days after Christopher woke up.“Thank you doctor.” Emile was relieved to see the clean bill of health.“Son, can we talk?” Dr Barr coughed to hide his embarrassment.“Sure.” Christopher looked at the medical team and requested “Please excuse us.”Emile was about to walk away when Christopher held her hand “Except her”All the doctors and Abbey walked out.“Speak”“Son…” Dr Barr cleared his throat while Christopher waited patiently.“Can you ask your assistant to give me back my passport?”“Huh?” Emile was shocked as looked from Dr Barr to Christopher.“Did he?” Christoph

Once the identity crisis was over, Abbey eased up and went back to being her old self although she decided to ignore Night wing.“What exactly happened?” Abbey asked Christopher. Although she knew the gist of what happened, she didn’t know the details. Emile wasn’t in the state to speak coherently when it happened and then, they were both on edge, that it until now.“I decided to follow Emile and when I caught with her, she was being surrounded by some thugs and then this happened.” Christopher pointed to the dressing on his waist.“Did anyone ever tell you that you are a terrible storyteller?” Abbey rolled her eyes. She had gathered this much info from Emile’s incoherent mumblings.Emile took on the narration, describing everything that happened animatedly; now that Christopher was fine, she was well composed and calm. Christopher leaned back against the head rest as he looked at Emile who was sitting beside him with a doting gaze. He could openly admire the girl who had occupied his

It had been almost 2 months since Emile's departure; life should have gotten back on track for Daniel and Michelle, and yet there was an uncomfortable stiffness which neither openly admitted.Daniel was mostly in a state of confusion, unable to accept that his feelings for Emile had changed without him realizing and Michelle clouded with her insecurities that stemmed from the realization that Daniel’s feelings for her were no longer the same as they were 3 years ago.Initially when Daniel and Emile had just gotten married, all he had was a good impression of Emile. Although Daniel indulged her and was often manipulated by her into carrying out intimate scenes in front of Emile, he still respected her and admired her integrity for keeping her word despite their provocation.He had even reminded her that they should avoid aggravating her since they were both taking what they needed. But Michelle always conveniently forgot and would later pretend to be aggrieved that she was overcome by

While Emile and Christopher were having a sweet time nurturing their relationship and Christopher’s wounds, Daniel was not in high spirits. Grandpa Holston had been hospitalized in a critical condition for the last 15 days and was just transferred from ICU to private ward. However, he still couldn’t cheer himself up. He was definitely happy and relieved his Grandpa was fine; his restlessness was related to Emile who had left him for more than 2 months. He felt stifled by the thought that she was no longer his. Even though he never accepted it in front of anyone, he had realized that he started loving Emile. Emile was no longer a partner with mutual benefits for him. He missed her gentle smile and infatuated gaze ever since she left the villa after divorce. No, that wasn’t true. He had missed it ever since Michelle came back 8 months ago. He was only fooling himself that he loathed her. Most of his anger came from his guilt towards Michelle. In his own twisted way, he felt that Emile

Christopher was discharged from hospital after a week following a thorough examination. Other than the wound that was yet to be healed, his recovery speed was considered astonishing with no aftereffects. He was glad to be out of hospital after been admitted for close to 2 weeks.2 days later, Emile and Abbey were discussing what to do with the rest of their plans as Christopher might not be able to fly for another few weeks while Night Wing was helping Christopher take a sponge bath.“Let’s keep up with the plan.” Christopher walked out the bathroom with Night Wing’s assistance. “I should be able to fly in another 5 days.”“No” Both Emile and Abbey rejected the plan without thinking.“We will rent a place and stay back for another month.” Emile told Christopher the plan they had just discussed.“No need.” Christopher refused to budge.“I am already back to normal except for not being able take a shower.” Christopher sat beside Emile “There’s really nothing much to do here and Abbey’s

“Yeah… why is only little baby getting a reward?” Marcus stretched his legs, skating towards Chris, leaving Beth who was rolling her eyes at Marcus who was competing with a 1-inch dwarf for attention, leaving her far behind in a heartbeat.Chris didn’t answer but lifted his eyebrows in an expression that meant ‘go figure’.“I could have gotten them out, but I knew their principle and didn’t interfere.” Marcus shrugged as an afterthought “Actually I knew they could have escaped if they wanted without my help.”“Right… and where were you?” Chris asked with a chuckle as he gently tapped his forehead, although the questioning didn’t have even the slightest hint of denunciation, it did not excuse him of his accountability.Marcus scratched the back of his head with a sheepish smile as he pointed towards the sofa that he was having a sweet time with Beth. He twisted his lips as he thought of the deeper meaning behind the question; he knew his little uncle would never ask such a question unl

“Ha…ha…ha….” Emile burst out laughing as soon as she entered the main lounge, forgetting all her resentment towards the injustice of bullying her son. The scene that entered her eyes was too comical to say the least.Chris Jnr, Bruno and Emm were sitting in the middle with the Burke brothers guarding around them in a tight circle. The Walter siblings were in the outer ring neither guarding nor helping; the only exception was Marcus who was sitting on the couch chatting with Beth in a leisurely manner. What was comical about the entire scene was Bruno who looked like a red puffer fish, unable to swallow his grievance of failure.Emm wasn’t happy either, but she just sat with her lips puckered, enduring, unlike Bruno who had obviously given up listening to Chris Jnr and was yet jumping up and down, protesting against the injustice he was subjected to.“Daddy…” Both Chris Jnr and Emm jumped up on hearing Emile’s voice. They knew that if mommy was here, Daddy would always follow.No one k
Never to look back Can you give me some face in front of my wife?
Chris and Emile didn’t have any difficulty sneaking out from under the watchful eyes of the press nor the guests…they had a genius son who had mapped everything to the dot for making their most important day picture perfect. It was so magical that both, Chris and Emile were afraid that it was a dream, and reality would kick in once they woke up; Both had to agree that it was better than what either of them could have imagined even in their wildest dreams.As they sat in the getaway car, Emile kept pinching Chris and asking him “Hubby, does it hurt?” while Chris kept answering “Wife, I am too excited to feel pain.” His answer wasn’t helping but there was nothing anyone could do, no one could understand their mental state unless they had been in the same situation.Once the excitement calmed down, Emile rested in Chris’s embrace with a blissful smile, her mind unwinding, relishing the mad rush or rather excitement from yesterday evening till the moment she saw Chris climbing into the bas

“I know you are married…” the man who answered previously spoke once again, the helplessness in his voice reverberating through the hall “but I have never seen you with Mrs Walter and I have always seen you with Ms Bell, who was your companion for banquets and social dinners. I have no reason to doubt your words when you introduced her this morning although it did seem a bit redundant.” He shrugged opening his palms upward.“No… no….no… this is all wrong…” Daniel shook his head in disbelief as he took a step back.“How can it be wrong?” Chris Jnr’s stern voice rang through the hall, loud and clear, filled with rage “Didn’t you like playing mind games?”“Can you not take it when you are on the receiving end?” Emm too asked in righteous anger; her mommy forgot her for 2 whole months.“You…. you bastard… you stole my wife…” Daniel roared without registering what Chris Jnr and Emm said and lunged towards Chris, who was standing with a relatively calm expression, although his brows were sli

Chris and Emile made their way through the reception hall, toasting guests at each table, in the order of the closeness of their relationship. Adrian, Neil and Night Wing took their roles seriously as they blocked the drinks for Chris. Emile had her supply of fruit tea that Abbey religiously re-filled for her; No one knew why, nor did they think much into it as this was Chris Jnr’s arrangement.Chris and Emile had just reached the table where Grandpa Holston was seated when Chris Jnr slowly stood up from his seat and walked towards them, holding little treasures hand. The rest, along with Bruno in the lead followed with excitement as they knew that the fun Emm mentioned before was about to start.“Thank you for coming and blessing our special day with your presence.” Chris raised the toast towards Ron and the rest; he didn’t even spare Grandpa Holston a glance. It was not in his nature to grin and bear grievances.“It was our pleasure.” Several associates including Ron hurriedly joined

Chris and Emile moved to the cake-cutting event with the reminder from little treasure. Cake cutting had a little twist, contrary to the norm where the bride and groom feed each other with the first cut, Emile fed the piece she took to Little treasure while Chris fed Big treasure before letting the two treasures feed them.Although it wasn’t planned and neither big treasure nor little treasure were ready for the surprise, both husband and wife knew each other’s thoughts the moment they looked at each other; they didn’t need to plan or coordinate for such flawless action. The action from the duo that followed also wasn’t planned nor coordinated, it was their norm, the duo would always feed daddy and mommy with their little hands in reciprocation from when they were old enough to grasp things.While the shadow guards took it upon themselves to deliver cake to each and every individual that attended the reception, Chris and Emile personally hand delivered the ones for family and relatives

Once all the guests were seated comfortably according to their table arrangement leaving the seats in the front vacated for family, Augusta as the coordinator for the wedding, announced the entry of the bride and groom, in all its grandeur while the DJ set the background scores for the romantic entry of the bride and groom.Emile’s favorite symphony floated through the air as she and Chris made their grand entrance, once again wearing a couple set; they had changed out of their traditional wedding attire they wore in the morning to a champagne-colored gown and suit. They walked in, Emile holding onto Chris’s arm with a blissful smile, like a pair of immortals strolling through the mortal realm as they walked through the hall to the center, followed by their little tails also wearing a mini version of their set. The adorable little dolls had their heads held high, a proud smile hanging on their faces as they followed in their parents’ footsteps.The bridal entourage followed behind with

Everyone went back to their rooms to rest and change before the reception banquet, which was also the continuation of the wedding extravaganza with no expense spared. With all the guests housed in Royal Lux, the hotel was closed to outside business, other than the ones that had a pre-booking and couldn’t be changed to another date.“Where’s Christian?” Daniel turned to question Ceilier as soon as he reached their room; It was not that he didn’t notice that Christian wasn’t with them, but the truth of the matter was that he didn’t get a chance till now.“He went off with the Walters.” Ceilier twisted his lips awkwardly as he replied in a low voice.“That bastard…” Daniel gritted his teeth as he muttered under his breath before turning his attention to Emile. He waved his hand, instructing Ceilier to step down before walking up to Emile and taking a seat facing her.“What’s wrong?” Emile asked in concern as she saw Daniel staring at her with knitted brows.“Nothing ….” Daniel shrugged be

“Senior Master Walter, the ride for returning to the hotel is ready.” One of the shadow guards from the team who were assigned to the Walters and Burkes announced as he stood respectably by Adam’s side.“Um…” Adam nodded as he took the treasures and Bruno with him “Lead the way.” Adam walked forward holding Big treasure and Bruno while Elizabeth held little treasure’s hand. No matter how uncomfortable she was, little treasure put on a brave smile and walked forward, as though she was heading for the gallows. Both Adam and Elizabeth feigned ignorance although they were laughing in their heads; she looked too adorable!Adam purposefully left Little treasure to Elizabeth’s care even though he knew that she would be uncomfortable. His intention was well meaning; to give them a chance to get to know each other better. He just didn’t expect the extent of aversion he saw in little treasure’s subtle actions; there was not just aversion but also fear mixed with guilt which Adam never expected;
