Noah walked into the study room to find Maria standing by the open window and waiting for him with both arms crossed tightly against her chest. Just as he approached her, she asked him a question, "Why were you in a rush to get married?.."

Noah sighed as he halted next to the older woman. The look on her face was relaxed and Noah could tell that even though she was no longer as angry as she had been before, Maria was serious with her questions...

He could give an excuse about how much he cherished Lola and wanted to be with her, but he knew Maria was just like Lola. Both women were not the kind you could lie to as they would see through your lies.. so he told the truth. "My grandfather had requested that I get married urgently. It was either that or I got disowned. I wanted to stop that from happening.”

Maria sighed. Just as she had expected, there was an ulterior motive behind it. But she was relieved that he at least knew how to be truthful with her. Had he mentioned anything like n

    "It's perfect.""Yeah, right?." Maria smiled, relieved to hear Lola's reply. She had been a little hesitant at first about moving in when Richard had brought it up, but then she was reminded of the meeting with Noah's family which was going to happen soon. She did not want Lola to appear shabby before them nor did she want their daughter to be looked down on by anybody."Yes, Mom," Lola responded and dropped her bag on the couch. "Where's dad?.""Richard stepped out for a minute. He should be back any time from now." Maria returned and moved over to the long rows of photographs on the wall. Then she selected a few framed photographs of Lola and herself.Lola nodded as she looked around the still-busy living room. If they were indeed moving out today, then there was still a lot of packing left to be done. Still feeling giddy, Lola changed her outfit into a more comfortable homewear before returning to lend Maria a helping hand. ~"What?!. That brat's at the gate?."Grandfather Sanche

    Shame.The sound of laughter rose from behind Ava and got distant as she walked away from the resting room. She wasn't meant to feel this way, the people in there were her own family, yet why did it feel like she didn't belong there?Ava ignored the silent bows from the maids and walked past them hurriedly as she searched for a place to breathe, a place to breathe and think.She flinched at the sudden rush of cold breeze that caressed her skin. Sure enough, her feet had led her to the family's large garden.The weather out there was a sharp contrast to the warm atmosphere of the mansion from which she had stepped out, but Ava welcomed it and walked even deeper into the garden until she came across a familiar space that brought back a rush of memories. The night of her son's marriage. It was in this very space that she had stood the very first time she conversed with Lola and Ava remembered every line of their conversation clearly. Her son's marriage was meant to bring her happiness

    "Still can't believe I asked my cousin out." Lola chuckled at Josh's sudden outburst. Breakfast with Maria and Richard was over and her parents were too excited to explore the estate together. They had gone off again for the second time that day, leaving Lola all alone with Josh who proposed to also show her around the mansion since he was familiar with the grounds.Even though it's been two hours since the discovery of their relationship, Josh still seemed to be a little.. out of it. "Well.. you had no idea about it at the time, did you?.""It's just so embarrassing. What if you had said yes to my proposal? What if we’d made out or even ended up getting married without knowing we were related? What if we had kids and then found out we were both cousins..." Josh pointed out again and Lola tried not to laugh too hard at his far-fetched assumptions and too many what-ifs. "...what if?..""Wow, easy Josh. You are overthinking this. There is no way in hell that any of that would have hap

    "Hurry up you two! Don't keep my granddaughter-in-law and her family waiting!." Grandfather Sanchez ordered impatiently as he settled into the backseat of his car while waiting for his son and daughter-in-law to get into theirs.He frowned as he recalled how he had woken up earlier than he usually did two days back to order a special outfit for the occasion. He had taken good measures to make sure this day was flawless, but how could they think of messing it up by making him late?"Senior Master. The elder master and the madam are settled in. We are now ready to be on our way." Mr. Henry, who was seated in the passenger's seat beside the chauffeur informed Grandfather Sanchez."Humph!." The old man huffed still annoyed.

    "Ahem!."The sudden sound of a throat being cleared behind Ava's back woke her up from her thoughts. She turned to see Grandfather Sanchez staring straight right back at her. "Father.." Ava called out and wondered how long he had been standing there for.Lazarus Sanchez let out a meaningful sigh before moving closer to stand side by side with his daughter-in-law. "I hope that you've learned your lesson?." He started.Ava's head lowered. She knew what exactly it was that the old man's words meant. She was filled with shame at her unruly behavior in the past months. When she lifted her head again, her eyes brimmed with tears that threatened to fall and despite the old man's annoyance at his daughter-in-law for her stupidity, he gave Ava a gentle pat on the back. "I'm sorry father." "I'm not the one in need of that apology, Ava. Gather your thoughts for now and give that girl a proper apology when you have it all sorted out up there." He advised and cleared his throat once again as he

    Richard Kings raised an eyebrow when a familiar tall figure walked out from the hallway of his mansion's east wing."Hey, will call you back in five minutes." He hurriedly said into the phone and ended the call he had been receiving despite the other person's protests. Then he pocketed his phone.The Sanchez family members had all been lodged in the opposite wing of the house, including Noah. Why then was Noah Sanchez walking out of that hallway where his daughter’s room was located this early in the morning? He thought as his eyebrows furrowed.Noah noticed the man standing at the entrance of the hall and fought the urge to let out a groan at what his soon-to-be father-in-law would possibly think about seeing him in that area of the house when he was meant to stay in the opposite direction."Morning, Richard." He greeted."Morning, Noah," Richard responded and sighed as Noah walked away. He fought the urge to facepalm himself for being ridiculous. Noah and Lola were already legally ma

    It was late into the night when Noah’s eyes gradually opened.His eyelids continued to flutter until they finally adjusted to the lighting in the room. When he tried to turn on his side, his back hurt, and his entire body felt numb so he lay there for a while, unmoving.~Her bed was warm and Lola felt more comfortable as she snuggled against her huge pillow. She remained there until she heard her phone vibrate and her tired eyes reluctantly opened up.“Ah..h!.” Lola jumped off the bed with a scream as she realized that the pillow she had been hugging was a real person. Who would dare?...Noah, who had been pushed off to the edge of the bed groaned at the slight pain her roughness had brought to his still-recovering body.Now widely awake, Lola was in for a double shock as she stared at the person in hospital clothes who she had pushed away. “Noah!!!.” Lola screamed with joy and a rush of excitement overtook her as she jumped back on the bed to return to her husband’s embrace, comple

    SEVEN WEEKS LATER,Lola clutched the test results in her hands tightly as she rushed into the hospital’s restroom. Finally, alone, she let the hot tears that she had been holding back stream down freely on her face. She was pregnant, and yet there was no way to tell him that he was going to be a father. Her phone started to ring in her purse and Lola inhaled sharply to clear her voice before she picked up the call. It was Maria. “Mom.” She managed to say in a clear voice. “Honey, you should come home today. Let me take care of you while you get some rest...”“I will be fine, Mom. Trust me. You know I’m a lot stronger than you think.” Lola said, even though her supposed strength was a lie, she refused to be swayed from her responsibility. “Besides I have to be there for when...” she insisted. Maria let out a long sigh at the other end of the line, her daughter was stubborn as always and she wondered who it was that the girl had taken after. Richard.“If you say so.” Maria finally sa

    “Step away from her this moment, Nathaniel!.”Andy ordered as he stared at his wife who looked too shaken to utter a word. He could understand what she was going through, after all, he had been present all along to know just how much Nathanial had affected her in the past.“Stay out of this, Father!.” Ash snapped as he ran his hand through his hair frustratedly. “I am not your father, neither is she your mother. We are not related to you in any way whatsoever. Come to your senses, young man!.” Andy clarified angrily.Ash let out a bitter laugh and he withdrew his hands from Ava’s to stand up to his feet. “In the end, it's those two you want right?.” He questioned, referring to Noah and Xena.Their present denial of him was a huge blow to Ash’s ego. He had been prepared to do anything for them. He had been ready to get rid of the children who had replaced him in their life, he had been ready to kill Noah and Xena Sanchez to have his parents back. He had done a lot of bad deeds to come

    Infinity Apartments,The Penthouse.“Boss!.” John bowed as he reached Noah amidst the anxious gazes of Grandfather Sanchez, Lola, and Mr. Henry. The men had indeed discovered something, but it would be safer if only Noah learned of it so he leaned in to whisper to Noah, but he was stopped by Noah who shook his head and ordered. “Speak up!.”John glanced in Lola’s direction with a slight hesitation in his gaze. “Boss, I don't think..”An icy glare from Noah shut him up.“Whatever it is, we need to hear it boy!.” Grandfather Sanchez added and Lola and Mr.Henry nodded in agreement. The old man did not like the way the bodyguard was cautious of Lola’s presence either. She was one of them now and the Sanchez family’s women would not be thought of as weaklings! It was a family matter and they all had to think of a solution, together. John swallowed and decided to speak up regardless of how sensitive the matter might be to the young miss.He looked at Noah directly and reported. “The men m

    “They’ve been gone for over six hours. The flight takes three. So how is it possible that they are not yet there?.”An eerie silence settled over the room as everyone suddenly turned serious. Even Lola, who had just walked out of the bedroom after hearing the old man’s voice in the living area was forced to keep the formalities aside and listen in on the conversation, quietly.“I had called the resort before all else sir, they are indeed yet to arrive.” Mr. Henry explained. He had only noticed that something was off when the guards that had been arranged to convey the elder Sanchez couple from the airport to the resort where they were to stay had called to inform him that thetwo people they were expecting, were nowhere to be seen. The bodyguards had been waiting at the airport for a long time before they finally reached out.Mr. Henry was also the one to confirm the booking of their stay instead of Grandfather Sanchez, so it had also been easy for him to get the information that he ne

    “Lola…” Noah groaned as his wife’s soft hands tortured his member which did not hesitate to betray him by hardening excitedly in the welcome softness of her warm hands. He had not expected that she would touch it…again.“It’s so big,” Lola mumbled and adjusted her hands gently around his throbbing rod which suddenly jerked again in her hands. Even in the dimly lighted room, it was easy to see the veins around his thick manhood, and its cap which glistened with pre-cum only fascinated Lola the more as she rubbed gently on it and went further to move her hands up and down his dick.Noah ran his tongue over his lower lip as he stared down at his little wife completely helpless. Whether drunk and drugged or sober, how is it that she did the same thing? no matter how sloppy her inexperienced hands on his shaft were, did she not know that her simple action could torture him to madness?Noah wrapped his hand around Lola’s and his lips parted slightly as he guided her at the pace that he want

    The lights from down the marina’s pathway cast the most beautiful shadow on Noah’s features, making them look sharper and dangerously more charming. His deep eyes trailed appreciatively down Lola’s body and Lola blushed from his hot gaze that suddenly made her feel so self-conscious... It was almost as if the man in front of her could see the whole of her soul with the whole of his eyes. “Why are you looking at me that way?.” Lola finally asked.It was a little windy and the breeze made a lock of her hair blow toward her face. She made to put the strands back in place but Noah was one step ahead of her, as always.He tucked the red lock of hair behind Lola’s ear and let out a helpless sigh as he draped a coat that Lola did not notice he had been holding around her shoulders to prevent her from catching a cold. “It's even more gorgeous than I imagined it would be on you. But of course, your beauty surpasses it…” He responded in a serious tone and Lola could almost swear that she had

    The elevator dinged and the Sanchez couple walked to the entrance of the suite where Noah opened the door with their keycard. A porter, who was helping them convey the packages they had returned with from their afternoon outing walked inside first and Lola followed after him. She suddenly stopped, surprised to see that Noah still standing outside, and even after the porter had dropped off their bags and left, he made no moves to come in after her.“Aren’t you coming in?.” she asked. Noah shook his head in the negative as he signaled for Lola to go ahead. “I had something delivered for you. It’s in the living room.”“Read the note first.” He added with a teasing smile.Lola raised her brows and let out a nervous chuckle. “Okay? That's it?.”Noah nodded. He could read from the curious look in her eyes that she wished to know more, but divulging his plans by words was not his way of doing things.~“What are you up to, Noah?.” Lola muttered as she made her way into the living room Just
