Jamie swiftly turned back and asked, “Him? Who?”

Oliver chuckled as he swiped through his phone while walking towards her, “You know exactly what I’m talking about, Jamie.” He said, his voice a lot deeper.

“You don’t think I’m stupid enough not to ponder over the reason why a brother-in-law would hire a fake boyfriend for his sister-in-law, do you?” He asked just as he was right in front of her.

“O– Oliver, what are you talking about?” Jamie stuttered.

“Jamie–I was talking about this…” He said as he showed her a video of herself and George making out in the front of Four Seasons Hotel where Jamie had lodged during her conference trip.

“H–how did you–”

“How could you, Jamie? How could you do this to your own sister?” Oliver asked, looking quite shocked.

“You are in no position to judge me!” She yelled at him.

"Oh, shut up!" He scolded angrily, forcing Jamie to keep mute. "You're in no position to yell at me. You lost that right the moment I brought out this picture, so you are go

    MARLOWE’S MANSION___LATER THAT NIGHTAs soon as it was a few minutes past 5 pm, Chloe ended her office work and left the office. As she approached the parking lot, she saw someone awfully family sitting in the bonnet of her car and a few seconds walk closer she confirmed it was indeed George. “Beep beep beep–” Her car cried as the front lights flashed, responding to Chloe’s action of pressing the remote key to get George’s attention.“You’re here! I thought I won’t see you until–next week.” She scoffed, standing just three feet away from him. “I came back because I missed you.” He lied, trying to hide his anger and disappointment for her. “Mmmm.” Chloe nodded knowingly. “Where is your car?” She asked curiously. “Why? I’m riding with you today.” He replied as if they were a happily married couple. Chloe didn’t have any problem as she entered the car and opened the door to the front seat for him to sit. “That’s good because I had something to inform you and everyone about.” She sa

    Chloe tried to push him off, but he pinned her harder to the wall. "Why does it seem like you're resisting me, Love?" He whispered into her ear, his lips caressing her ear down to her cheek. "George, it's been a while–" "That's why I want us to go all night long. Don't you miss me?" He asked again as he finally kissed her lips while slowly lifting her legs from the floor to wrap around himself. Chloe's heart picked-up as she slowly shut her eyes, 'I can't let this pig take me.' She thought to herself. George was already moaning as he continued to caress her body with his lips while pressing her harder against the wall before Chloe found enough strength to push his face off. "George, let me down." She ordered, her voice devoid of any sexual emotions. George was alarmed by Chloe's reaction as he hesitantly freed her legs. "Chloe, you don't want me? What is going on?" George asked, his face ridden with shock and disbelief. "George, that's not the case. It's not like I don't want

    “What?” Blake and Zane mouthed in disbelief, with Blake choking on air for a short while. “Tsk, what was I thinking?” Chloe rolled her eyes as she sat back down. “You won’t be single by then. I heard your wedding is scheduled for after Ruby’s college graduation." She scoffed, not bothered by the reaction her statements were having on the men. "Chloe, how could you—" "I'm sorry. I know my offer is absurd, but I really don't have anything better to offer you. I doubt you'd even want me now, even if you're single– George already said you won't since I am not as gorgeous as I used to be, but I had my hopes high." She sighed sadly. "No! It's not about your looks. You look as perfect as you were back in college–" "Blake!" Zane quickly called Blake back to his senses before he said things he couldn't act upon just yet. "Umm– sorry." Blake stuttered, not sure what he was sorry for. "I thought you were leaving in anger. Why are you back here, spewing rubbish and making him uncomfortable?

    "You just asked me for help. Why would you contact him without letting me know?" George complained. "Why is that a problem? Isn't finding my father the priority now?" Chloe complained. "Of course it is." Dawson chimed in, sounding a lot calmer than George. "You keep saying you are finding your father like he is lost. Did he tell you on the phone to find him?" He asked curiously, hoping to know if she was hiding anything from him. Chloe scratched her head for a lie to tell. "Ah, no!" She exclaimed. "How can a collector be lost? They will always find their way out of every situation. I just want to know if he is close by. I need to meet him and find out from him why he abandoned us. I want to find out whether his work is more important than me. I need to find out why he missed my special day, and I have to show him what a wonderful family I almost missed because of his persistence."George pulled her into a warm, comfortable hug as Chloe broke into tears again.

    “Blake, I know you must think your Uncle isn’t that heartless but I promise you I know firsthand how cruel he can be.” Chloe tried to convince Blake seeing how quiet he had become. “He killed an infant, he could do more.” Blake blurted out. “An infant? What are you talking–”“Shh!” Blake shushed her as he pulled her attention back to the screen. George and Sebastian had arrived at the dimly lit basement, and Blake and Zane had to keep their focus intact. Aside from Blake and Zane, they were a team of experts, analyzing the screen and making sure they took note of every camera, security system, and guard in the basement because Blake wasn’t ready for any mistakes. Eventually, they got to Mr. Knightley's room, where he was now working on his computer. “If I were you, I would have used the opportunity to call someone who is actually smart enough to know I’m in trouble—not someone dumb enough to think I abandoned her.” George said to Mason, referring to the supposed ‘call’ he made.

    Chloe felt terrified but she knew exactly how to wiggle herself freely from him…or so she thought as she asked, "George, why are you here?" "Following you!" George chuckled weirdly, scaring Chloe even more. "You are Damien, huh?" George asked curiously and Damien only shook his head in affirmation. "You must be the one always serving her. You both seem quite close." George said as he gently shoved Chloe aside and moved closer. Chloe's heart thumped in her chest as she feared the worst and all sorts of thoughts went through her mind. 'Could he have possibly seen the camera and he hid it well from me this morning.' 'Or Maybe his guards found out about me and Blake.' "Y-yes sir." Damien stuttered, jolting Chloe from her thoughts. "If that is the case, serve us her usual meal!” He suggested as he gently patted his shoulder, and Damien’s eyes widened in shock as he had never served her before. “George, what’s your problem? You’re intimidating that kid.” Chloe complained. “I’m not

    Blake quickly turned to face Bryce whose back was still turned against him. "I said the same thing with Chloe…and now, I still can't get over it." He said, his eyes filled with worry. "What is going on with you, Bryce?" He asked curiously. Bryce slowly turned to face Blake as he replied, "I think Damien likes her too." Blake let out a sigh of disappointment as he had desperately wished things were different. "Bryce, this is serious." He said as he pulled him to sit beside him on the bed. "Tell me everything." Blake suggested. Bryce was quiet for some time before he began to say, "Her name is Isabella and she is from Damien's old school." "One of the equal education students?" Blake asked, referring to the scholarships students from less privileged schools and Bryce nodded in affirmation. "Have you ever told Damien about her?" Blake asked again. "I've brought up conversations about her but it's purely school related. He had sometimes teased me about liking her but I always dis

    "Hilda, this is the last time I'm going to ask you. What the hell are you hiding from me?" Dawson asked curiously. "Father…the last time I visited my parent's home, I took out a file from the briefcase Dad asked me to deliver to you." Hilda began to explain. "And what file is that?" Dawson asked, still very angry. "It's…it's the slush fund file…" "Chloe, excuse us." Dawson quickly interrupted Hilda upon hearing the gravity of the conversation.Chloe decided to play the dumb lady they take her to be and quickly turned away but Dawson called back to her, saying, "And please, get Sebastian to meet me in my study." "Okay, Father." She said and continued walking away. Hilda, who was still trying to prevent herself from getting into trouble with him, continued to explain herself, "Father, I swear it wasn't my fault. Sebastian was the one who wanted to use it against you."Hilda continued to explain herself until Chloe couldn't hear them any longer.Chloe was surprised by the informat

    It was a day of festivity in the Kensington Palace as it marks exactly one month since Chloe returned to the palace with her twins, as well as the date the family had set for their official white wedding. On Chloe’s part, it was easier to forgive Blake’s parents as they weren’t exactly hostile to her. All she ever wanted was to become Blake’s accepted wife, and now she finally got the opportunity. At first, she was worried they had accepted her because of the baby, but after finding out how long Braxton had been trying to abolish the law, she realized they did love her for her. Chloe was a sight to behold. Dressed in a stunning white gown adorned with intricate lace and sequins, no one could tell she just gave to the two genders of life. “Woah! You look magnificent!” Victoria complimented as she walked into the dressing room where Chloe was. “I know, right? The dress fits so perfectly that no one would guess she just put to bed.” Ruby chimed in as she adjusted her ethere

    Hot tears trickled down Blake’s eyes as he stared at his parents. “Blake, we’re sorry…” Diana apologized, also tearing up. “You know, I wasn’t the one you offended.” Blake pointed out. “We will apologize to her when she’s back.” She said, “Just please bring back my daughter-in-law.” She begged.Bryce scoffed in disbelief, “She is your daughter-in-law now?” Blake faked a smile as Bryce had asked the question he meant to ask. “Abolishing a law is not as easy as you think. It requires a lot of debate within the parliament, votes, and mutual understanding. It took me five months to finally achieve this. You won’t understand until you are in my position.” Braxton said. “Do you want me to be grateful?” Blake wondered, not sure why he was telling him this. “No.” Braxton replied, “I just need you to know that Chloe can be your queen and your equal now. I wonder why they even made that law and why I had to fight so hard to support it.” He added before turning away and walking towards hi

    As Blake had promised, he sent Zane to Wexissia as soon as he resumed office as the crown prince just a few days after his return. But Zane’s journey was fruitless. He searched around the house and realized she wasn’t home. At first, he thought she had stepped out since all her belongings were still intact, but after days of waiting and asking around, he realized she never returned home after seeing Blake off. Back at home, Isabella tried to get an audience with Blake, which became unnecessarily hard since his return. Fortunately, Blake also had a reason to meet Isabella since Chloe sent him to her. After settling things with his family, he found time to go to her school and meet with her. Isabella became anxious after finding out that Blake returned a few days earlier without Chloe, and so as she stepped into his car, he began to inquire about her. “Where is my sister? How could you leave her alone there?” Isabella asked curiously. Blake explained how she’d threaten to kill he

    Blake chuckled, not willing to believe her, “Chloe, you must be exhausted. Go to bed now.” He suggested and attempted to lay back down, but Chloe had to show him how serious she was. She quickly grabbed a scissors which she’d placed on the drawer beside her and started to cut herself. Blake was triggered, quickly pulling the scissors from her grasp. “Chloe, are you crazy? What has gotten into you?” He asked angrily as he covered her injured hand with his palm and reached out for the first aid kit, which was in the drawer beside the bed. “Maybe if I am dead, you won’t hesitate to go back home.” She said, “Chloe, you can’t be serious about that…why all of a sudden?” He asked, applying first aid while still quite stunned by her decision. “It isn’t all of a sudden, Blake, I have made my decision, and if you don’t leave by tomorrow, I will kill myself.” She threatened, and without waiting to know if Blake was done with his first aid, she pulled her hand away and covered hersel

    Holding a small pregnancy stick, Chloe stared at herself in the mirror, the sun reflecting through their three bedroom apartment window. Even though she was already five months gone, her stomach was still as flat as ever. She remembered the first time she found out she had a cryptic pregnancy when she first passed out at the hospital after Blake recovered from his gunshot wound. At first she wanted to inform the family during the big feast but after hearing their decision, she decided to keep it a secret even from Blake because she didn’t want to seem like she was forcing herself on him. Even though she knew Blake wouldn't think that way, she was worried his family could misinterpret it and even end up forcefully accepting her because of the baby. Two months after living as a married couple in Wexissia, she still couldn’t bring herself to tell him the truth until today, which she’d chosen to tell him. Blake wasn’t home at that time because instead of just retiring, he decided t

    It took another week for the matter to die down, and the royal family decided to invite everyone that are now considered as family to a huge feast that they had organized. Shortly after the desert, the king and his wife summoned Chloe and Blake to his office along with Victoria and Zane, leaving the kids and Laila out. “I am sure you understand the royal family has been in turmoil for a while now, and adding a contradictory marriage to it will only make the people question the power of the royal family.” Braxton explained, and Blake already started to frown. “What he is trying to say is that we will support your marriage, but only on one condition…” Diana said. Chloe felt a glimmer of hope, seeing that his family were finally going to support them, but Blake knew his parents well and didn’t have any hope whatsoever. “What condition?” He quickly asked, “That you will take her only as a concubine. She can’t be your equal, and you will have to take a wife first before yo

    “How could you let her do that? You should have forced her or something!” Blake complained upon hearing the tales of her action since he lost consciousness. He gently caressed her hand as she rested on his bed while he sat on the chair where she was seated earlier. “My brother did everything he could as a king, but she refused to listen and exercised every right she had as a citizen. Don’t even go there.” Victoria explained. “We were all scared to death when she kept throwing up and feeling sick without even eating anything. I don’t think there is anything we haven’t done to make her listen, but it was just as if we were talking to a rock.” She explained further.They were still discussing when Zane and the King who had just heard the news of Blake regaining his consciousness arrived, but to their dismay, the patient was now taking care of the guest. “This girl? She just always has to be so annoying.” Zane complained.Blake gave him a bombastic side-eye, asking, “Did you even apolo

    The palace was in a haze, and the violence Blake tried so hard to prevent eventually happened. Blake suffered three blank shots to his chest while Dawson suffered over seven gunshots. They were both rushed to the hospital. After hours of being in the theaters, the doctors operating on Dawson eventually stepped out. Unfortunately, none of his family were by the door waiting for him. Only the prosecutors were.The doctors didn’t hesitate to respond since they understood what circumstances he was brought there. “He is currently braindead, and his organs are failing rapidly. With life support, it would be a miracle he makes it past two days, but that miracle won’t happen the following day.” Despite his critical condition, once he was moved to the wards, he was handcuffed to his bed because of the magnitude of his crime. Meanwhile, Blake’s surgery took a few more hours. His surgery was quite critical because he was shot very close to the heart, and the best surgeons around the globe f

    Blake's smile slowly turned into a psychotic laughter that scared the crap out of Dawson for a while. He looked at the plotters and asked, “Don’t you also find this funny?” He said, pointing at the guards who had dragged his family to the dining room.“Once they fall into a deep sleep, those weapons become useless…” His voice trailed off as three guards slowly dropped to the floor one after the other, their weapons crashing beneath them. Real fear surfaced in the plotters face, and Vivian almost peed her pants. “Mr. Aspiring King, why don’t you go back to your seat? We have a whole lot to talk about today.” Blake suggested.Dawson was hesitant as he wasn’t sure whether or not his plans were going accordingly but one thing he knew was Blake had the upper hand for now and he needs to obey him until he thinks of another move. He sluggishly went back and sat among his people, beads of precipitation forming on his forehead. The ministers let out a sudden gasp, confusing Dawson, who was
