Chapter 4 ANCESTRAL HOME

Chapter 4

Bennett stiffened as he blinked.

"Wayne's Corp?" He asked again, and they two nodded happily.

"Wow! That's huge." He smiled. A smile that did not reach his eyes.

Shit! Why there of all places? He wondered, twitching his lips.

"Earth to Bennett." Riley snapped him out of many thoughts.

"Yeah..sorry for spacing out." He mumbled.

"Are you okay?" Ava asked, seeing his expression.

"Why not? I'm fine. This calls for celebration. "He half yelled.

"Yeah, that's what I'm talking about." Riley half yelled too.

Ava rolled her eyes.

Riley was just too talkative.

"Stop working and come work for me Riley... It'll be so much fun." Bennett winked.

Riley huffed.

" Why would I? Tell that to Ava not me."

"I don't want that special treatment Bennett.. and the other workers would be looking at me like I'm some zombie." Riley said, as she shook her head.

Bennett laughed, as he took another sip of the Becardi Rum that was displayed on the table.

Damn!

*****

"Boss... Your mother called."

" She said you must come to the Ancestral home tonight. It's urgent." Troy said, as they both walked into the Mansion.

"What's urgent about that?" Bruce scoffed, as he scratched his head.

"But Boss... About the Avary thing..."

"Cancel it... Don't make me say it again." Bruce ordered.

He turned back and walked out of the Mansion.

"To the Ancestral Home." He said, and got into the car.

The drive there was smooth and quiet.

The Ancestral Home was a miles away from New York.

At the outskirt of the Down Town Area.. near Houston.

Bruce sighed again... The two place he hated was The Church and The Ancestral Home.

"Sir.. we're Here." He heard the driver said.

"So?" He asked.

"The.... The door is not opening." The driver said, with a shaky voice.

"Then break it.. Don't worry, we won't be affected by the damage."

"The car is amoured... Break it." He ordered.

They knew he was here and still the door was not opening.

He scoffed, and undid his tie.

" Sir?" The driver asked again.

"Break the damn door Matt, the time is ticking." Troy finally voiced out.

He hated this place too.

Damn! It was too creepy to be here.

"Okay." The driver said, as he increased the speed of the car and Bang!!

The loud Crashing and destroying was heard.

"Good!! It wasn't hard. Wasn't it?" Troy chuckled, staring at the driver through the rearview.

Damn! The driver gasped, breathing hard.

Did he just break An Iron Gate!!

"Breath Matt... It's not something new, So get use to it." Troy mumbled, as he got down.

In front of them was a Spacioue building.

A well designed one.

A word was scribbled on the top of the large building.

_"Ancestrola Hömé"_

A Spiral Logo on the top of the Scribbled word.

The surrounding was meticulously set and the designs of the Mansion was Breath taking.

"What the hell is going on here?" He deep growl was heard, as a man stepped out of the Mansion.

Bruce walked pass him into the Mansion.... As Troy followed suit.

He walked into the Mansion... And looked around living room.

He scoffed, seeing the whole family already sitted.

He turned to his mother and gave her a "What they fúçk are my here for look".

He sighed, and walked to an older woman.

"Good evening Grandpa." He greeted, and the older man nodded.

"Good evening Grandma. How are you?" He asked, as a smile lingered on his face.

"Is this my Bruce?" The woman smiled, as she kissed his face.

He nodded, and stood up... Ignoring other members as if they were invincible.

Troy followed suit, and sat by the side of Bruce.

How he hated this family meetings?

He heaved a deep breath and waited for it to be over.

" Good evening All... As we all know Wayne's Corp is The Top Company over ruling The whole New York and..."

"What the fúçk is this meeting for?" A deep thick voice echoed from the back.

"We're talking about the company's outcome Bruce... Don't you have ears?" The man talking asked.. with a frown on his face.

"You're talking about My Company? And who gave you that Right?" Bruce stood up and turned to Troy.

"Meeting dismiss everyone... Bye Mom." He said, and gave her light kiss on her forehead.

"Bruce..." His mother called, but he had already left the Mansion.

Bruce got into the car and chuckled.

"Drive." He ordered, as his eyes darkened.

Those people! Were they joking with him?

His phone rang and he picked it up quickly.

"Seriously! You could at least kiss your sister bye bye." He heard the soft voice say.

He chuckled.. and sighed.

"How are you doing Carie?" He asked, regretting the fact that he did not see her when he arrived.

He was so angry that he didn't look.

"I'm fine. Don't mind Uncle and they rest, they all know.. they company is yours."

"I don't know what might be going on in those head of theirs." He heard the Soft voice say again.

He smiled, hearing her voice again.

Carie was not his sister... Although he never talked to any of his Step Brothers and sisters. She was an exemption.

She was just like a glue. An Instant Glue.

It wouldn't go off, once it sticks.

"When did you get back?" He asked, looking out the window to the dark world.

"Yesterday and a Wicked brother of mine... didn't even care to come pick me." She answered, and with a huff.

"This wicked brother if yours is really sorry.. cause he has been too busy lately." He replied.

"Bye.. Mom is calling out to me." She said, and cut the call.

He sighed, as he dropped the phone.

He closed his eyes for what seem like Hours.

"Cancel my appointments tomorrow.. I'll be really busy in the office.." He muttered, and Troy nodded.

"What about my Secretary?" He asked.

" Uhmm... No worries Sir."

"It has been settled." Troy said, and he nodded.

He heaved a deep breath... letting the anger in his heart dissipate.
