“How is the security?” Kaleb asked Archer while standing on the front lawn of Kyle Wright’s mansion. A day after Vlad Cross walked into the hotel, bringing photographers, and since then, they spotted three media crews near the property. It was clear to Kaleb that the media had been tipped about Liam, one way or another. The security at the hotel had to keep a watchful eye around the building. Earlier that day, his men reported how Vlad was now staying at the hotel, two blocks away from the Third Diamond Hotel, and he was seen taking his breakfast at a nearby cafe. Of course, the same actor tried to get a reservation at the Third Diamond Hotel, but he was denied outright. It was exactly because of this that Kaleb had earlier brought his family to his brother’s home, a way to keep Liam from the public eye. Kyle’s new home was within a private community that was equally well-guarded. On top of that, Kaleb added more security workforce around the mansion. “Everything is secured,” Arch

“The court is in session. Presiding in this trial is Judge Susan Roberts.” Two months had passed since the court agreed to hear the appeal of Vlad Cross. Since Kaleb refused to give Vlad the requested amount of five billion dollars, he used his influence to get an earlier schedule in court. His family’s power was not enough to sway the judge against listening to Vlad’s petition, but he could at least get the matter resolved as soon as possible, assuming the judge will rule in their favor. Present in the courtroom were a few members of the Wright family: Samantha, Ethan, and Gaby. On Vlad's side, Lisa was there and his manager. After giving their acknowledgment to the judge, the plaintiff began their opening statement. Mina greeted the judge before reading out on paper what she had drawn up for that day, “We all know Vlad Cross being the famous actor who starred in recent action movies. Mister Cross’ fans know him as a person who lost his parents to divorce. His father and mother s

“Mister Wright? Can you describe to the court how was it that you lost sight of your son?” Mina asked while taking a full turn, her brow raising in Scarlett’s direction. “Are you really that responsible father you claimed to be?” It was the third day of the trial and while Kaleb’s party had seemingly gained points over the past two court sessions, Mina brought up the time when Liam disappeared. She had earlier introduced a witness, the former receptionist of the Herbal Twist Restaurant, the same establishment where Scarlett had previously worked for. Unfortunately, the receptionist exaggerated the turn of events that led to Liam being missing back then. Now Mina was grilling Kaleb, trying to make him look bad in front of the judge. Shaking his head, Kaleb sucked in his irritation for the woman. He repeated, “I turned away from him, just briefly, and he disappeared -” “You mean, you were too busy looking at your future wife, Scarlett Barnes at that time, that you lost your son? Yo

“Your honor, before you make your decision today, our client, Mister Kaleb Wright, would like to make a statement,” Yael said before turning to Kaleb, verifying that his decision to speak was final. “Go ahead,” the judge approved, her hand welcoming Kaleb to the front. Getting up from his seat, Kaleb took a deep breath. He turned to his right where Vlad Cross was seated. He was folding his arms against his chest, his jaws clenched tightly. Supporting him in this trial were his manager, a few of his friends, and Lisa. Till the very end, Vlad and his attorneys insisted that the video presented by Bronze Cafe was tampered with and that it had everything to do with the influence of Kaleb Wright. The video also did not change the fact that Kaleb and his party were not able to disprove how Vlad had no knowledge of Liam’s existence. It resulted in both parties presenting their arguments to the judge, reminding her of the pieces of evidence presented over the past month that they had com

“Wow! This is amazing!” Liam dashed from the driveway going into the vast front lawn of the new estate that Kaleb and Scarlett officially called 'home'. He practically ran around and covered the entire lawn with his arms spread wide open, as if he was flying while delighting in that free space. When Liam was done measuring the yard with his feet, he ran back to his parents and asked, “We will live here? Is this our new home?" “Yes, buddy! We will live here - well, there are still some renovations that I have to make, but after our two-week vacation, the entire home should be ready,” Kaleb revealed. Liam’s eyes widened. He asked, “After our vacation?” “Yes, baby. We are going to have a vacation.” Scarlett carefully put her hands on her waist, telling, “Your daddy and I thought we could use a good reward after going through so much lately. We badly need to go on a holiday - you know, the one that got postponed months ago?” Raising both his brows, Liam’s eyes rounded. For a second,
