"Come on, let's eat," she invited, and he took a seat while she served him. "Did you like the villa? Of course, it's yours," she happily shared, joining him at the table. He stole glances at her frequently while enjoying the meal. Even though she appeared exhausted and tired, she cooked for him with great enthusiasm. "During your absence, I had the authority of the company. But now that you've returned, the board members are insisting on transferring the power back to you. Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, in the board meeting, I will hand over all the power to you," she informed him. "Isn't it too soon?" he wondered. "This is strategic. Just the news of your return has already brought stability to the company. With you back in charge, miracles will happen. It won't take long for you to improve the company's condition. I will only manage my IT department," she explained. My IT department! Was she just a head of IT department in his company? How could an employ be so close to h

Yohan stood there like a statue for a moment, comprehending that the woman was afraid of thunder. However, he couldn't grasp how to calm the thunder that had suddenly erupted within him.The rain began to pour, drenching them both. And when the third thunderclap resonated, everything went dark."Yohan..." she cried out, and Yohan held her tighter in his arms.Resting his chin on her head, he held her tightly, his heartbeat echoing in her ears. As a familiar warmth enveloped her, Sara Owen slowly opened her eyes and gazed up at his strong, chiseled features."Let's go inside," he said, gripping her wrist and leading her towards the villa. However, the blackout made it impossible for them to see anything around them."Damn it," he muttered in frustration."There should be some candles in the kitchen," Sara's voice, sweet as honey, floated through the air. Yohan flicked on his lighter, providing a soft, dim light as they made their way to the kitchen. Unfortunately, they discovered only

Yohan sat in the dining hall, but he hadn't started eating. He was engrossed in a phone call with Assistant Nolan. When Sara entered the dining hall, wearing a pink shirt, Yohan quickly looked away. Sara hung his blazer on the hanger and sat in front of him.Even after ending the call, neither of them spoke to each other. Yohan couldn't comprehend what was on her chest…Sara broke the silence, "The IT department have some projects with Mr. Johnson's company. I've got a meeting with him after lunch. Wanna join?""Where's the meeting?""At Brooklyn Tower, the headquarters of Brooklyn Group. Kevin Johnson is the director.""Sure thing. I've got no appointments. Let's go together.""Just so you know, I won't be coming home in the evening. I have to go to the hospital.

"Everything went well?" Yohan asked.Sara nodded, "All the projects will be launched this week.""Then you'll be busier.""No matter how busy I am, I'll still cook for you."His smile returned after a long time, melting her heart. "Thanks for cooking," he expressed, opening the car door for her. With a bittersweet smile, she sat inside.For the first time since the incident, he took the wheel and drove."Did the auditions go well?" she asked."I'm the owner, so you should ask the models," his direct response surprised her. His past may have faded, but his character remained."Did you select a model?""Hmm."Sara didn't inquire further and gazed out of the window.When he parked the car in the basement, Sara Owen gazed at him. "You wait. I'll come early," she pleaded, not wanting him to discover about their daughter so soon."I'll come with you," he said, stepping out of the car. Sara Owen swallowed nervously and followed him, her eyes fixed on his back. He crushed the cigarette beneat

As the head of the IT department, Sara had a busy schedule filled with promotions, meetings, visits, and product launches…After breakfast, she left in her white car, while Yohan arrived at Dixon Headquarters in his black car. He had lunch alone, trying to focus on his work, but his mind was consumed by Natalie's revelation from the previous night."Sara is the mother of that sick child," he thought. "Were the stains on Sara's chest that day from milk?" The questions lingered in his mind.As the clock struck seven in the evening, Yohan closed his documents, lit a cigarette, and leaned back on his chair, exhaling smoke deeply."What kind of mother is Sara after all?" he pondered. "Is she unmarried, married, widowed, or separated?"Just then, Assistant Nolan entered the cabin. As soon as she noticed Yohan smoking, a chill ran down his spine.Smoke rings swirled around him, and his aura seemed dangerous.Swallowing saliva, Nolan approached his table."Sir...

"Uncle told me to go back to October last night. Sorry, I forgot to tell you because I was swamped with work today," Sara said.Yohan remained silent, as if it didn't matter to him."I had so many meetings today that I couldn't make it for lunch. Next time, don't follow me during lunchtime.""You should have had lunch," he finally spoke after a while."I'll remember from now on."So maybe that was the reason he was upset?Yohan stayed silent for a moment, and Sara understood that it was something else."Yohan...""Did you go see Kevin?""Yeah, he left in the middle of the launching event, and I didn't get a chance to thank him. So I finished all the work and went to meet him first."To meet him in his private suite!!Yohan tossed away his cigarette and headed straight into the villa.

Despite his memory loss, Yohan still had his own internal clock that woke him up at a specific time in the morning. As he opened his eyes, he immediately noticed that he was lying in a soft and fragrant place. But what caught his attention even more was the sight of Sara lying beside him on the bed. His throat felt dry as he realized their sleeping arrangement. Yohan had his head resting on her soft chest, tightly embracing her in his sleep. He moved slowly, careful not to disturb her peaceful slumber.Taking in the state of the room, he recalled the events of the previous night. It seemed that Sara had fallen asleep next to him while tending to his needs and ensuring he fell asleep peacefully. The realization filled him with mixed emotions, but he chose to respect Sara's sleep and extricated himself from the room.After finishing his exercise routine, Yohan returned to the bedroom only to find Sara absent. He felt a sense of relief, not wanting to face her after the unc

"Hey beautiful ladies," Kevin interrupted Gracie and Sara."Hey..."Kevin glanced at Gracie, "Your boyfriend won't let me dance with you. And I don't want you to get tired. Can I have your friend as my dance partner?"Gracie laughed, "Sure, Mr. Johnson."Kevin turned to Sara with an intense gaze, "Sara, can I?" He asked, extending his palm. Shaking her head, Sara Owen placed her hand in his.Gracie held Sara's clutch, and Kevin led Sara Owen to the dance floor.Yohan's eyes didn't blink once as Kevin and Sara conversed. When Kevin held her waist, Yohan's thirst for alcohol intensified.Moving slowly to a melodious tune, Sara and Kevin gazed at each other. Kevin's eyes shimmered with affection in the dim light. Holding her waist and her soft hand, he felt like a prince."Why are you looking at me like that?""I can't take my eyes off you," he said in his deep voice."Really?""You have no idea how many heart

"How... How is that possible? I remember, we chatted the morning I got attacked. You were the one telling me the baby was all healthy. What the hell happened?" "Maybe it's just my rotten luck, Jemma. But seeing you with Sunny, I can't help but be grateful you made it through and had a healthy baby." "Oh, Jia..." Jemma enveloped her in a tight hug, both women clinging to each other as tears flowed freely. Meanwhile, Noah reached the October Villa. As he approached, Yohan shot him a glare colder than a snowstorm. "Dad... Mom..." Noah greeted them, his eyes darting around to gauge the situation. Sunny was playing with Yohan. Noah swallowed hard, sensing trouble. "How can you be so careless, Jimmy? Why'd you let Jemma come here alone at this hour? You know the danger's not over yet," Sara scolded, her tone edged with worry. "Mom, I didn't want her to come, but she insisted..." "You're avoiding the situation, Jimmy. You can't change the past, but you shouldn't be dodging what's happ

"Jimmy, it's been days. I want to see her and the baby. What's the big deal?"He sighed, "I promise, we'll go later. I just need to sort some things out first."Jemma, growing more anxious, insisted, "But I've been waiting, Jimmy. I can't wait any longer. What's going on?"Noah, worried about her mental state, softened his tone, "Listen, babe. Trust me, I'll take you to see Jia, okay? I don't want to rush into things."Jemma, feeling a pang of doubt, couldn't hold back, "Are you hiding something from me? Why won't you just take me?""No, Jemma, it's not like that.""Jimmy..." her eyes turned tearful."Okay. I'll take you out to dinner tonight, at October Villa. Jia's staying there, and we can see her afterward. Deal?"Jemma hesitated for a moment, then agreed, "Okay, dinner it is. But you better not forget about it.Noah smiled, relieved that he had managed to divert her attention, "I won't. Now, let me get going, okay?"Jemma agreed, watching him leave for the office.

Noah trudged back from work, the day's burdens still hanging on his shoulders. Opening the bedroom door, he caught sight of Jemma singing a lullaby to Sunny in her sweet voice. Emotions surged within him, and he quietly closed the door, not wanting to disturb their tender moment.Sinking into the living room couch, Noah leaned back with a heavy sigh. Guilt and regret enveloped him as he grappled with the reality of their situation. Conflicting emotions swirled as he recognised the joy in Jemma's happiness but couldn't shake the haunting feeling that everything was amiss.Jemma placed Sunny in the cot and, on her way to the kitchen for water, found Noah sitting in the dimly lit living room, a cigarette in one hand and a glass of whisky in the other. She touched his shoulder, and he opened his eyes, extinguishing the cigarette and placing the glass on the table."Tired?" she asked.Noah sighed deeply, rubbing the gap between his eyes. "Is Sunny asleep?"Jemma nodded, her palm on his che

The next morning dawned, casting a feeble light across the hospital room. The oxygen mask, a constant companion in her struggle for breath, had been removed, leaving her vulnerable in the stark hospital room.As Jemma slowly opened her eyes, the sterile scent of the hospital greeted her senses. Her gaze fell on Noah, sitting at the edge of the bed, his face etched with a mixture of exhaustion and sorrow. Desperation flickered in her eyes, and as she tried to speak, her voice emerged as a raspy whisper, "Jimmy... where's our baby?"Noah's heart clenched at the question, the weight of the unspoken truth hanging heavily in the air. He hesitated, avoiding her gaze, and gently urged, "Jemma, just take it easy. You need to rest."But Jemma, fueled by a mother's instinct and the gnawing fear that something was amiss, persisted, "Jimmy, please, where's our baby? Why won't you tell me?"His throat tightened with the burden of the truth he wasn't ready to share. Trying to divert her attention,

Yohan looked straight into her eyes, "Your mother didn't make a mistake giving birth to you and your brother. Being a mother ain't a mistake. The real mistake is not being able to bring a child into the world. And you didn't make a mistake wanting to bring life into this world."Jia lowered her head, tears welling up."He's a good guy. I'm proud of you."Jia rested her head on his shoulder, and he tightened his grip on her hand, patting it with his other hand."Jimmy's mad at him, not at you or your child. They're buddies.

Who the hell leaves you in such a condition?" he shouted angrily."No brother, don't do anything to him. Please... he was going to tell you...""When? After the baby's born? It's been seven fucking months, Jia!" he screamed, shaking her. Jemma approached Jia, holding her shoulders, and said to Noah, "Jimmy, don't scare her. We can talk calmly.""I'm warning you, Jemma. Ask her who he is or get her ready to see his dead body in twenty-four hours."Saying that, he stormed out of the apartment furiously, leaving everyone shocked and scared.
