Chapter 68 Rogues Are Taking Katherine's Kids Away
Chapter 68 Rogues Are Taking Katherine's Kids Away
Katherine was stupefied, her heart freezed at his words. Although they were married, she still felt very
shy before him. "Marshall..." She called very softly and sweetly. Derrick then stood from the grassy
floor, standing straight, he looked at her and said, "come with me."
Katherine nodded in response and began to walk with him, she wondered if he was angry at the fact
that she refused his command of laying on him.
"Marshall..." She called after a few seconds of silence. They were almost getting to the pool already.
Derrick paused and turned to her but he didn't say a word.
"I didn't mean to disobey you..."
"I'm not angry," he said and lead her to the pool. He drowned himself inside the pool for a long time
before bringing his body out while Katherine only stood by the pool and watched. She was waiting for
him to invite her to join him in the pool but he never did.
After a couple of minutes, he left the pool in a wet cloth and lead her back inside, "Goodnight General."
He then walked away from her.
Katherine sighed with the way he addressed her, he looked at his back as he went further and further
away until he faded out of her sight. It was hard to understand if he truly like her or not. As for her, she
was already crushing on him but she's trying to guard her heart from falling from him. Falling for a man
like Derrick will only hurt her greatly cause obviously, he's a man who is not capable of love.
Although he had never hurt her directly nor hurt her kids, infact, he had never shouted nor disrespected
her despite the fact that he held a very high power in the city yet she protected her heart dearly from
falling for him. But she liked him so much and it's beginning to hurt, realizing that he may never love
her. Perhaps, all she will ever be to him is a General who only come to help him heal his soldiers.
Katherine sighed sadly, as she walked up to her room, she daydreamed about herself and Derrick on
the alter having their wedding. Derrick was wearing a black suit and he was all smiles. At the priest
instruction, he inserted the ring right inside her finger and her cheek turned red. She was extremely
happy that their immediately lips locked up into a passionate kiss, they kissed dearly before the crowds
that had attended the wedding.
Katherine jerked out of her fantasy and pinched herself, this is a dream that will never come to pass,
stop! She rebuked her mind and slumped to her bed.
She covered herself with a duvet and thought angrily, "why does he have to be so handsome?
Respectful, lovely and... Gosh! As far as Katherine was concerned, Derrick has no flaws. Other people
may have a lot to say about Derrick but to her, Derrick is just perfect. She thought for so long until she
eventually fell asleep.
When it was the following morning, while Derrick was heading out of the Supreme building in a bit to
drive over to his office, a woman ran quickly behind him and he paused and turned, seeing Donna, his
cold expression remained the same and he waited for what she has to say.
"Good morning, General," she saluted.
"Hope you are good?" He asked, checking his wrist watch. Although he's the overall boss here, he
doesn't like to get late to work plus he has a lot to do today in the office.
"Yes, General. I'm already dressed as well, can you give me the honor of driving you to your office?"
Donna asked.
"That won't be necessary," Derrick turned from her and began to walk over to his car. Donna
immediately removed the scissors in her pocket and walked carefully behind him and then cut a part of
his hair. She immediately tucked the hair and the scissors in her pocket. It wasn't like she wanted to
drive Derrick to work, she just wanted to get close to him.
Derrick got inside his car, unsuspecting that a part of his hair had been cut, he glanced at Donna who
stood still by a side, started the ignition of the car, reversed and drove away wordlessly.
Although Donna was a bit certain that Derrick would be the kid's father but she wasn't absolutely sure.
She wants to confirm so that she can know her next line of action.
She immediately got inside her car and instead of resuming to her post, she drove out of the base and
soon arrived at an hospital. On stepping down from her car, she walked straight to the paternity test
department.
She soon sat before the doctor. The doctor was the one she paid to produce a fake result stating that
Christopher is the father of the kids but he failed to deliver.
"So Alessio threatened you?" Donna asked to confirm, the doctor had already explained why he
couldn't deliver to her on phone.
"Yes. I couldn't even perform any test, I just printed the fake result at his command," the doctor
answered truthfully.
Donna placed Derrick's hair on the table and said, "now perform a real test now. I want to know if the
owner of this hair is their father."
"Whose hair is it?" The doctor asked.
"That's none of your business, Bryan. Go and perform the test quick, I'll be waiting here," she said.
Bryan stood from his seat and walked away, he already had the kid's hair with him so he just went
straight to the laboratory and did the test. About thirty minutes later, he came back with the test result
and handed it over to Donna.
Donna received it and confirmed through the result that Derrick was the kid's father. Now she can know
her next line of action.
"Thank you, "she said and turned to leave. She suddenly paused and turned back to Bryan, "don't tell
anyone I came here nor that I performed any test."
"I'm not a kid, I won't spill out such," Bryan said and watched as Donna walked away.
Whereas, Christopher was summoned before the Grandwar kings, Grandwar masters, the god of war
and vice president of Western Ocean City at the military executive hall. The news of Derrick's
attempted murder by officers of Aurora Island had reached the ears of the president of Western Ocean
City so he immediately sent his vice to hold a meeting.
Christopher denied that he was not involved in Derrick's murder, "Derrick is my brother, why would I
want him dead? The same mother gave birth to the both of us, it will be stupid of me to want to kill my
own brother expecially when he had done nothing wrong to me." He added.
"Although your personal assistant, Kimberly insist that she carried on Derrick's murder on her own will,
we still believe that her loyalty to you is what is stopping her from confessing that you are the
mastermind of the plot to kill Derrick," the vice president of Western Ocean City, His Excellency, Chief
Wayne said.
"If you permit me, I'll shoot Kimberly dead right now for carrying out such attack against my brother.
Kimberly obviously has some grudges with Derrick. I know it's hard to believe that I have no knowledge
of Derrick's attempted murder but it's the truth," Christopher defended.
He continued, "I'm glad Derrick is alive and fine. I assure you that his safety will not be in danger
anymore. Infact, I won't be ordering for more escorts from my city, I'll be here alone. I can't possibly
fight over one million soldiers on my own."
The vice president reasoned over what he said but before he could speak, Christopher added, "I'm Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
here for one single purpose and that is to help Derrick in training and strategizing for the bigger war
before us to which I believe we will definitely win if we work together."
Chief Wayne looked at Derrick and asked, "General, what do you think?"
"The president didn't bother to ask of my opinion before bringing a new god of war, why are you asking
for my opinion now? Whatever the parliament decides is fine by me but anything or anyone that
threatens my safety literally threatens the safety of the country as well."
"Honestly, I tried to convince Mr. President to invite you over when we were discussing on bringing
General Christopher from Aurora Island but he insisted that it won't be necessary," Chief Wayne said to
Derrick then set his gaze back on Christopher, "General Christopher, as you have said, you can not
bring in any officers from Aurora Island until you decided to leave back to your city."
"Definitely." Christopher said.
"I didn't absolutely believe you are not involved but we will give you the chance to continue to stay, we
will know what proper measures to take from our own end," Chief Wayne said to Christopher and
added, "you may leave now, General."
Christopher stood and just as he pulled back from the chair, someone pushed the door open roughly
and shouted, "Marshall, some unknown rougue soldiers has invaded the base. The base had become
bloody."
Derrick stood at once. How come Alessio didn't inform him? Or could he be injured?
"You!" Wayne suddenly pointed at Katherine, "you are that woman that murder my son. What are you
doing in the military?" Wayne was Kate's wife and the biological father of Katherine but obviously, he
didn't know. He only sees Katherine as the murderer of his only son, Charles.
Everyone in the room was stunned that Chief Wayne, the vice president of the country has a case
against Katherine.
"Your Excellency, we can talk about this later. The base is in danger...we need to ensure you are out of
here safely and fight those rogues," Derrick immediately interrupted.
"I'll lead Chief Wayne to safety," Christopher suddenly interrupted. Everyone was a bit skeptical as they
didn't trust Christopher. "I can't hurt his Excellency, you know what harm that will bring to my country?"
Christopher immediately ran to Chief Wayne, held him by the arms and lead him out.
"You, you , you and you..." Derrick pointed to four of the Grandwar kings and said, "attack from the
tunnel area."
Then he said to the rest of the Grandwar kings, "take the aircraft 12Aa5 and shoot from top."
"Got it," the Grandwar kings dissapeared at once. The Grandwar masters don't fight wars since they
were old men so Derrick said to them, "stay on guard here with your weapons."
"Yes General," the Grandwar masters saluted.
Derrick looked at Katherine who had fear written all over her face and said, "you are an officer, why are
you scared?" He ran to her and held her hand then they both sped out of the building. There was
already chaos in the base as gunshots could be heard everywhere.
"Marshall, we need to be careful," Katherine said, she was now holding a pistol while Derrick had an
AK 47 with him. He suddenly sighted a car drove towards them, Derrick and Katherine immediately set
their gun towards the car.
The door opened and Alessio stepped down, there was blood gushing from his leg, he could barely
stand. Katherine ran to him at once and checked his leg, "oh my days! You received a bullet in the leg."
Alessio slump to the ground, still groaning in pain, "General, we are overpowering those rogues please
don't get involved yet. It's just that those rogues came with modern guns."
Samantha appeared at that moment, she had been searching for Katherine, "General, we overpowered
those rogues and have killed many but the few left have started retreating and running for their lives but
Katherine's kids are being taken away." She cried out.
"What!" Derrick's felt a very sharp pain in his heart hearing that and anger rose in him, "Samantha, take
my assistant home and treat him. I'll bring the kids."
As he got inside the car that Alessio brought, Katherine jumped inside and insist she will follow him.
Although Derrick didn't want her to follow him, he didn't tell her to get down cause he has no time. He
needs to catch up with those rogue soldiers and save her kids.
