Chloe scanned the room with her eyes but that didn't provide any answer but a few seconds after staring at Ruby, a perfect answer finally came.

"Ruby, by now you should know Blake is a softy. He must feel really bad for hurting you and must have been trying to confirm your safety from me." Chloe lied effortlessly.

Ruby was quick to believe her as she handed over the phone to her, "You should answer it." She suggested.

"No, I will speak with him later. I need to know how you're feeling first." She suggested as she quickly ended the call and placed her phone on airplane mode.

"By the way, who owns the suitcase?" She asked curiously.

Ruby moved closer and took Chloe's hands in her as she said, "Chloe, I know you're going through a tough time because of what happened last night and I really want to be by your side right now Chloe."

"Honestly, I used this breakup as an excuse to be here but…I really don't want to be in that house anymore…especially now that you're not in it. So ple

    “Yes, Chloe. She is the only Victoria Kensington in Castile, so yeah, it’s my Aunt. My father’s younger sister.” Blake explained in detail, leaving Chloe no room for any further questions about her identity. “Woah! How did you manage…wrong question.” She paused, trying to stop herself from freaking out. “But she’s not in Castile for now. How is she going to take my case?” She wondered. “That’s why I said I was only going to tell you when she is available. She will be landing sometime this week.” Blake explained. Chloe thought for a while before pointing out her concern: “Just in case Dawson still has no idea who is helping me out, wouldn’t that be selling yourself out?” “I thought so too. That’s why your first meeting with Aunt is going to be a little dramatic.” He smirked, leaving Chloe curious. “How so?” She asked curiously as the car came to a slow halt. “We are here.” Zane announced, and their minds quickly shifted from their conversation back to the worry for Ruby.

    “Yeah! Who else did you think was us giving all the juicy details about the company?” Dawson asked. “Too bad even she got fooled by her.” He mumbled, shaking his head as he relaxed in his chair.“Chloe isn’t that smart. She couldn’t have pulled this off alone. She trusted Aunt so much she couldn’t have hidden it from her if no one told her to.” Jamie pointed out, pacing about the place angrily.“You are right on that. Pulling that crap at my party just to get her Father out of that shithole is not something she can handle all by herself.” He said.“She was behind that?” Jamie asked, still in disbelief.Dawson stood up and walked up to Chloe where she was standing, “This family has given you so much, yet you failed us so badly. The only way to win back my favor is to find out who the f*ck she’s working with. Understood?” He asked.Jamie remained quiet for a while, gathering her thoughts before she replied, “I will do that only after you forgive George and end his punishment.”“What? You

    “Dad’s old workspace.” Damien announced it proudly. “Wait, could it possibly be that place you always talk about finding?” Bryce asked curiously. Damien grinned from ear to ear as he replied, “Yeah. I remember that place clearly, even though I was clearly very young at the time. It’s just as I remembered. Wooden, secluded, and cozy.” “Have you already seen it?” Bryce asked again. “Yeah. But I haven’t gone inside it.” Damien replied. “Do you wanna go with me?” He asked thoughtfully. “Sure! Definitely!” Bryce exclaimed in excitement. “But…how did you find it?” He asked. Damien folded his hands and he began to pace the room as he explained, “You know, it wasn’t easy at all. But I always knew my mom had something to hide about this city but I recently found the picture at the back of an old picture of my parents. I decided to find the location and voila...there it was looking old and well hidden from the public eyes.” “I wonder why it wasn’t figured out for so many years.” Bryce sa

    "PM society? What's that?" Blake asked cluelessly."Sh*t...I don't know how to explain this but I think it's a secret political party backing the Marlowes for years, guaranteeing that their successor becomes the next Prime Minister every single tenure." Sebastian explained to the best of his knowledge.Blake chuckled, "Does such a thing even exist? Who are the participants?" He asked, partially in disbelief."If I knew that I wouldn't have lived in this house for so long. I know you don't believe me but it does exist." Sebastian went on. "But I'm certain one of the biggest shareholders of Knightley.& Gallery is also one of the participants.'I knew it.' Blake thought to himself."That won't change anything. We don't know who snitched and you're still our only suspect." He said. "We doubt he knows about my involvement in this whole matter so you better keep shut." He warned as he strolled into Ruby's walk-in closet and went through her things, gathering a few things she might need.Seba

    "Who are you to interrupt our party, b*tch?" The man who got slapped asked angrily.The next thing he heard was another slap on his cheek, this time, it was from Juan.The music subsequently went off and the party was canceled for misconduct.The Hotel security took the assaulters away while Chloe took Isabella back to her suite."Do you know them by chance? They seemed to know where you always are." Chloe asked curiously as she paced about the room."Well...they used to frequent Gambler's End. They were just some admirers, I didn't think they could lose it like that." Isabella explained, sitting on a sofa facing Chloe."What were you thinking going to work at such a place to begin with?" Chloe scolded.Though shaken, Isabella tried to act cool as she mumbled, "I needed the money.""Yeah! I guess that is what all this is about." Chloe scoffed, "Haven't you thought about other part-time jobs?" She asked but Isabella remained quiet."Maybe you like this. I mean always being in the midst

    As soon as the last bell of the day went off, Bryce and Damien immediately ran out of their class before their teacher could call it a day.With the population of students leaving the school at that time, it was easy for him to mingle with the Crowd without notice."The bus is here." Damien announced as they both ran towards the bus.They hid under the seat of the bus and as soon as it drove off, they stood up, letting out sighs of relief."What are you two up to today?" Isabella who was sitting on the seat they were hiding under asked, startling them."You?" They chorused in disbelief."What are you doing here?" Damien asked curiously.Isabella rolled her eyes as she explained, "With the way you ran out of the class earlier, I knew you both were up to something.""That doesn't give you the right to follow us." Bryce complained."And who says I am?" Isabella asked, looking at him in disgust.They were still talking when the bus reached an intersection and Isabella quickly rang the bel

    "Are you saying...""Yeah! This is the f*cking map on your shoulder!" Damien exclaimed, staring at the map spread widely at the center table of the living room in Blake's apartment."Language!" Blake tried to correct him."What year are we in!" Chloe and Damien unintentionally synched, startled by Blake's complaint."Exactly what I've been trying to get him to understand." Bryce said, happy that someone was finally there to defend him from Blake's ancient way of life.Blake was equally startled by the reaction he was getting from the room and the only person he could turn to was Zane."Zane, what's your take on this?" Blake asked, looking for support.Zane rubbed the nape of his neck sheepishly as he replied, "I've been trying to make you understand this too.""Seriously? Even you?" He fumed."Blake, calm down. They are adults now." Chloe suggested."Bryce hasn't had his birthday 18th birthday yet." Blake complained."And I will have it in the next few weeks." Bryce reminded him."Guy

    "Victoria Kensington, seriously? Has that girl lost her mind?" Dawson bellowed furiously as she paced about the living room where they had all gathered to watch Chloe's live interview."The stupid guard got himself caught and now that stupid reporter you hired ended up being grilled up instead of grilling her up. What a shame!" He added, referring to Bianca whom Jamie had hired to help restore a pint of the family image."In my opinion, Bianca did a pretty good job. Just that Chloe seemed prepared for every f*cking question. Looks like girl is ready for an all-out war." Sebastian joked. "I doubt your petty settlement will appease her." He added, giggling.Hilda tried to stop him from ruining the already ruined mood but just his first statement already pissed everyone off."Sebastian, if you say one more useless thing today, I'm going to kill you." Dawson threatened, furious."And you!" He pointed to George, you better find a solution to this. Find out who he f*ck is helping her out."

    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
