Chapter 40 - New life, hope, memories, regrets, torture and decisions; memories

Three months passed and Aileen was living her normal life routine, on one Saturday she didn't go to work and decided to help her mom out, she was cleaning their drawing room when she heard the madam assistant telling her madam that the boss said his prodigal son will be arriving in two days, Aileen dropped the vase she was cleaning and

"Do you know how much that cost "

"Sorry madam," she said as she tried to pick the pieces but constantly dropped it because she was shaking, her mom came and pleaded on her behalf and helped her clean up the mess

...

"He's coming back'' she said with tears

"Who's coming back?''

" the prodigal son is returning in two days time"

Her mom hugged her as she cried in her arms

Her mom got her water to drink

"Aileen, he's not going to hurt you again I promise''

Her mom said

"I never asked you about your trip, but you came home happy and I was glad, Aileen you're no longer a child forget the past and just avoid him''

"I can avoid him mom but I am not sure if I can forget the past''

...

The house was busy preparing for the arrival of the prodigal son, all of them were happy except maybe her, she was anxious as the night approaches and the day for his arrival getting closer.

On the day of his arrival the five most powerful clans in the city met that early morning

There were four thrones and the throne of the thrones

Right i forgot to tell you all about the richest people in this city

.....

The city is owned by five famous clans, to keep their wealth they marry from their own clans. This famous clans were founded by five richest people who made a name for themselves which became the talk about family in the city because of the influence they had, people in the city feared their wealth and the great, great great grandfathers of the current five clans heads happened to be friends, after acquiring their wealth they decided to keep the wealth in their family and become the most powerful family in the city and basically they became the owners of this city

The four clans were the Byrne's, the smiths, the O'clary and the Bryce and the richest of the rich, the one who sits on the throne of thrones was the O'Sullivan's.

Aileen was staying with the O'Sullivan's, her dad was the current head's driver before the incident happened.

Mr. Kelly O'Sullivan was the richest person in the city he was the only one who didn't marry from the clan, he fell in love with a simple college girl, Mariah Connor. He was known to be the only one amongst the five who changed the narrative that the clan's can't mingle with the poor, he didn't discriminate.

He and Aileen's father were the closest friends

Kelly was the happiest man when he married Mariah, she gave her two lovely sons but after her death things fell apart and maybe he was in grief that he forgot he had sons who also needed him.

His first son Brian, after his mom's death got involved with some shady friends, Aileen father found out and warned him but he didn't listen.

Brian was in grief when his mother died and more so when he needed his father the most and his dad remarried Mira, the daughter of Kelly's father from the Bryce family, to keep the legacy alive, Brian was more angry that he had time for that and not his sons and maybe because he didn't want his mother's position to be taken that he got swayed, he believed people who he shouldn't have

His friends actually wanted to use him for money whilst he considered them friends they considered him a trophy to wealth.
