79 The Alpha 

Luke 

We stayed a bit with the Wahabs. Ummul had a lot of stories to tell me about my mother, and I was mad at my father for keeping me away from them. At that moment, I saw the love that I had missed. Instead, my father left me at the mercy of his coldhearted bitch mate and never did anything to protect me from her. He honestly had no excuse. He should have handed me over to the Wahabs and ensured everything was paid for. It was my mother’s money, after all. I would have been spared the hardship I endured in the moon mansion. Looking at the cottage and knowing who they were, they deserved more. There was no way I would forgive him for this. Knowing that holding on to me gave him complete control of the assets pissed me off. He spent my mother’s money on that bitch and left her to dip her filthy hands into cash that . belonged to me. She would have ruined that company if my aunt did not write to my father to threaten him a year ago. 

Everything now made sense to me. I wondered why my father was negligent. He did not attend to his duties, and much work was left unfinished. It was because he knew his days running the business were over. Looking at my aunt Amirah, she did not seem like the type to make empty threats. I looked at the cottage, and I was mad. They deserved better than this. Amirah needed help, a staff or two to help with her mother so she could live her life. I figured my aunt was mateless because of this very purpose. My father was a scumbag, and I felt it would be best to 

cut off from him at this point. 

How could he claim to love my mother and treat her only living relatives terribly? This was wicked, and he had nothing to say to justify his actions. 

We left the cottage in the evening, and I promised my aunty and grand-aunt I would stay in touch. I planned on taking care of them to the best of my ability. Amirah dropped us off at the hotel and warned us to be careful with the whores from Dome. I promised her I won’t slip up, and she thanked me for coming. 

When we got to our room. Caleb broke the ice. “That was a lot of revelations, Luke,” he said, and I nodded. I knew Caleb was uncomfortable because of how Amirah painted his mother, so I touched his shoulder. 

“You are not your mother, Caleb. You are still my little brother, and nothing will change that,” I assured him. He smiled at me, but the smile did not touch his eyes. 

“Look at the bright side. If it weren’t for your mother, I would not have a brother, and I would not have a wife,” I said, which was true. As twisted and fucked up as it may seem, Caleb and Tia were in my life because of Stacy. 

“Who do you think poisoned your mother?” Mike asked me a crucial question, and I honestly did not have an answer. 

“I doubt father has a clue,” Caleb said, and I realised we were at a wall. There was a possibility we would never find out, but one thing was sure, a guy was behind it. It could be anyone. A distant relative and aggrieved ex, anyone. My mother wasn’t here to shed light on the matter, and my father was a lair. He kept so much from me that I doubted I could ever trust his words. “We have to put this investigation on hold now,” I said, Caleb, exclaimed. 

“What about Regan Adhit?” He asked, and I smiled at him. 

“We will still go to Dome to get answers, but I won’t be flying your grandparents back in my chopper, Caleb. I might not have any issues with you, but my father cannot maltreat my mother’s family and expect me to pamper Stacy’s family with my money,” I spelt it out for him, and he was stunned. I knew he wanted to protest, but he dared not. I was on thin ice with his mother, and he knew it. 

“My grand-aunt and aunt are living like paupers. They are the only relatives I have left from my mother’s side. The least father could have done was move them to a better house and get at least two people to work for them. My aunt would have had time for her personal life and may have been mated and married by now. It was my mother’s money, yet he deprived her people of care, but he lavished Stacy with it. Allowed her to spend money that did not belong to him, tried to cheat me out of my inheritance and allowed her to steal from me,” I said and shook my head.
