However, what happens when Derrick discovers the little boy that looks so much like him? After 6 years of searching, he wasn't mistaken. "Who is your mother?" he asked the little boy. To clear his mind, he kidnapped the boy and waited for the boy's mother to declare a search warrant for her son. Read to continue.
"Miranda, get the drinks from the fridge," Lady Loretta said. She was an old lady, the hostess of the villa, and it was her only son's birthday celebration.
"Okay, Ma," Miranda answered. As a young lady in her early twenties, Miranda wore a pink dress. It was nighttime, and they were preparing a birthday party for Derrick Luis, the only son of the Luis family. Out of eight children, Derrick appeared to be the only son.
Many guests were already present in the Luis family mansion; among them were top admirers, business partners, and their family members and relatives, but the birthday celebrant wasn't at home.
Far away at a luxurious office, Derrick Luis was still at his office when his mobile rang. "Hello, Mother," he picked up the call, and his mother said to him, "Derrick, you know that today is your birthday. So where are you?"
Looking at his wristwatch, Derrick observed it was already 6 p.m. He replied, "At the office, mother."
"Come home, Son. It's your birthday, and we did a lot just to have today a special moment to mark your new age at 25."
"Hmm, I am not interested in birthday parties, mother. Why can't you understand my priorities?" Derrick murmured. His mother was already old, so he couldn't blame her.
"I understand. Please come home quickly before the guests start leaving. If I had known, you would stubbornly stay up in the office until this time. I shouldn't have allowed you to go to the office today, knowing today is also your birthday."
"Mom, I cannot set work aside for a party. Who will look after Dad's company?" Derrick muttered again. His mother responded sadly, "You are right, but during your father's prime, he didn't skip home for work. He attended parties, or where do you think I met him?"
"Hmm." Derrick rolled his eyes at his mother's words. "Fine, Mother. I will be at home now." He said that, and the phone call ended.
"Running a multimillion-dollar empire at this age, my mother still wants me to prioritize parties over work. Tch." Derrick mused. He stood up from his exclusive office chair, where he sat in his office. Shutting down his monitor system, he grabbed his suitcase and elegantly left his office.
Arriving home in a brand new Prado Jeep, Derrick Luis got out of the vehicle and made his way ahead to his family's mansion. He could hear the sound of music and frowned after seeing a whole lot of guests' cars that were parked inside his late father's estate.
Marching forward, Derrick arrived at the mansion's exterior. He rang the doorbell, and the maid pulled the door open for him.
"Welcome, Master Derrick," the maid greeted Derrick.
Derrick ignored responding to the maid's greetings and was ushered by his mother, who was in the living room with a lot of guests.
"Welcome, son. Happy 25th birthday to you," his mother said.
"Happy birthday, Master Derrick!" All the guests in the living room toasted to the new age of the young master.
"Thank you all," Derrick replied, and wanting to retire to his bedroom to rest, his mother stopped him. "Derrick, it's still your birthday. Come cut your cake and make a wish."
Pausing at the staircase to look back at all the faces of the guests, his seven elder sisters, who were all married with kids, his nephews and nieces. Derrick wanted to protest again that he was not a kid and didn't want a birthday party. However, he gulped down his protest as silence fell in the crowded living room.
Approaching his cake that was placed in the center of the living room, Derrick cut the big cake, and the guests all beamed happily, clapping for him.
"Happy birthday, brother," his sisters cheered him, and he replied, "Thank you all."
"That's not all, Derrick. Make a wish." His mother urged him again.
"Oh, Mother. I am not a kid," Derrick finally protested, but his mother walked up to meet him as they were all standing in the living room.
"No one said you're a kid, but you're still my baby, so make a wish," his mother pleads with an assuring smile.
Not wanting to make his mother sad, Derrick wished for a long life, a happy family, and a prosperous business.
"Happy birthday to you again, Master Derrick; we wish you all the best." The guests were equally happy, and the toast continued as the guests resumed drinking and chatting happily.
Derrick excused himself from the living room and went back to his bedroom on the top floor of the mansion. Meanwhile, among the maids was Miranda Luis. She had a crush on the master of the house. She was not the only one crushing on Derrick, but she couldn't get her eyes away from him.
Miranda openly gawked at Derrick's handsomeness. "Too handsome for one person," she thought as she observed Derrick. He seemed very hardworking and doesn't have time for women, as he's mostly focusing on his business alone.
Derrick doesn't even have a girlfriend, and Miranda was dripping wet with desire to get him to notice her. Well, she was a poor girl and came from an orphanage home. After her years of serving the elite as a maid, Miranda wanted a classic life. She didn't want to return to poverty.
In the Luis family mansion, maids were expected to dress casually. Well, there was no competition in the household as all the daughters of the Luis family were already married. Including the most immediate elder sister to Derrick, Nicole Luis.
"Come on, Alexa, I want to introduce you to my younger brother. I fear he might be gay. Why won't he have a girlfriend at this age? Don't you find it weird?" Nicole spoke to her friend Alexa as she brought her along to her brother's birthday party.
Alexa works as a secretary at Luis Group, a multimillion-dollar firm. And she would admit that she hadn't seen any young lady come to the office to visit Derrick.
"I don't think he's gay. Master Derrick is just too busy to notice any woman," Alexa replied. She wore a seductive red dress. She had arrived at the Luis mansion just after Derrick left the company.
Alexa Godwin was also interested in Derrick. She wanted him because she was just 22 years old. She knows that having a man like Derrick as her husband in the future, she doesn't need to work much or suffer to feed herself, as his family's wealth is enough to cover all her lifetime expenditures.
"Alexa, what do you think of Derrick? Do you not have a crush on my brother? If your sister hasn't spoken to me about introducing you to Derrick to work as his new secretary after my leave, do you think I only accepted you based on friendship alone? Come now," Nicole grabbed Alexa's hand and led her to the top floor, where there were no other guests.
Alexa Godwin was nervous. For a year, she had been working as Derrick's personal secretary based on Nicole's influence. She hasn't crossed the limit or tried to get Derrick's attention. He was an aloof man, and she feared what he would do to her if she dared to cross his boundaries.
