50. You must have missed me
Last Updated:
2023-08-24 21:01:52Bruno's hands started shaking, and the file slipped from his grasp. Peter's laughter echoed in the room, and Bruno's face turned pale.
"This can't be possible," Bruno whispered weakly.
Peter sat in front of Bruno.
"Years ago, you picked up my own son from outside the court Bruno Dixon and gave him to your wife. Neel is my son."
Fear gripped Bruno.
"All the reports were conducted at your Dixon Hospital. If you want, you can investigate it. After reading the reports, you'll see that Neel's DNA matches mine, not yours."
Slowly, Bruno began to understand Peter's motive behind revealing the truth.
"I can give you as much money as you want. Just spare my family, please," Bruno pleaded, his voice trembling.
Peter's gaze turned serious, his Don-like demeanor resurfacing.
"Bruno Dixon, do you think I'm still that money-extorting guy? I am Peter Winkle now. The rising sun of the underworld. I have plenty of money and power."

Kevin proposed."Right now?" Sara questioned, surprised."Yes, right now," Kevin confirmed."But..." Sara started to protest."I'm near Dixon Villa. Get ready and come out. Let's meet at the gate," Kevin insisted."But Kevin..." Sara tried to explain, but he abruptly ended the call, leaving her with no opportunity for excuses. Shaking her head, she made her way back into

Sara smiled sadly, "I don't know how I could forget about him!"Kevin's breath became heavy, as if he wanted to reveal his true identity as the boy from her past."He couldn't get you a teddy bear, but I can," Kevin declared.Sara stared at him in disbelief."Come on," he said, grabbing her wrist and leading her towards the vendor."Kevin, please...""No, tell me which one you like.""Kevin, I...""Are you going to choose or should I pick one for you?""But...""Shhh. Just tell me which one caught your eye or I will purchase the entire shop."Sara smiled helplessly and shook her head, then gazed at the array of colorful teddy bears.Yohan, sitting in his sleek black car at the red signal, looked at Sara and Kevin with his tired and bloodshot eyes.

"Yohan... please go to sleep," she pleaded.Recognizing her, Yohan clenched her hair in his fist and pulled her closer."I hate you. Get out of my sight," he spat, pushing her away with contempt. Sara regained her composure, wiped her tears, and lowered her head."Why are you drinking so much? Alcohol isn't good for your health. It's poison," she said softly."You're the worst for me. More poisonous than poison. I hate you. I hate you," he rambled on, before finally succumbing to sleep.Yohan woke up with a pounding headache and noticed the white bandage wrapped around his palm. Memories of the previous night flooded his mind, reminding him that Sara had been there, taking care of him and tending to his wound. His eyes landed on Sara's mobile phone, which stirred a mixture of emotions within him.Leaving the bedroom, Yohan made his way to the kitchen, hoping to find some food or a comforting scent. However, he was met with disappointment as

"Why do you think that?""Maybe you didn't hear him properly yesterday," Kevin replied, recalling the harsh words spoken by Yohan under the influence of alcohol.Sara remembered the hurtful things Yohan had said, but she knew that Yohan's dislike for any man in her life existed long before that incident."You know him well, being his friend. He tends to say anything when he's drunk," Sara remarked.Kevin nodded in agreement. "Is that why he didn't let you answer my calls?""Huh?" Realization hit Sara as she suddenly remembered leaving her mobile behind at October Villa."I think I forgot my mobile at the villa. When did you try calling me?""In the morning," Kevin replied."Oh... I returned to Dixon Villa early this morning and fell asleep.

Yohan drove his car out of the gate just as Sara's car pulled up to the entrance. Observing her sleeping in the back seat, he hastily exited the villa premises.Who was unaware of his anger? But don't know why he had become calm after getting cheated by Sara. Neither he was able to take revenge from her nor was he able to punish her.On his way back to October Villa, Yohan chain-smoked cigarettes, his heart burning with an intense fire as he couldn't help but notice the white gauze on his palm repeatedly. The flames of helplessness consumed him, reducing his body to ashes. Sara occupied his every breath, and in order to move on and live, he needed to forget her. And to achieve that, he required Leslie. He immediately dialed her number."Hey," Leslie answered, sounding surprised and delighted to receive his call."What are you up to?""Just about to take a shower.""Would you like to come with me to Ryan's party?"Leslie's eyes widened,

Natalie’s smile faded away, and she glared at Yohan with a mix of disappointment and fury."So, you want to buy this dress for her," Natalie said, her tone laced with unhappiness. "But Sara has fallen in love with this dress."Leslie, wearing a smug smirk, interjected, "Does she even know the price of this dress? You're not qualified to buy the most expensive dress in town, Sara."Sara's head drooped, her confidence waning under Leslie's taunting words.

Yohan couldn't help but stare at the name on the screen for a moment before the call ended.The phone rang again, but he ignored it, abruptly canceling the call to maintain his peace of mind. Taking a deep breath, he gulped down a glass of whisky, fixating his gaze on the darkened screen of his mobile phone as if he were awaiting a call.

"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.

"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.

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.

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.

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.

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?
