The voice sounded like he was angry. She doesn't remember doing anything to put him in that mode. She always makes sure she didn't due to how seriously short-tempered he is."Alex..."He suddenly flung pictures at her making her furrow her brows in surprise. She looked at him in confusion, and her gaze then dropped to the ground, on one of the pictures."So that is what you've been doing when I'm not around, ah?" Alexander accused. He felt betrayed.Elena picked a picture, her mouth gaping in surprise at it. It w

FOUR YEARS LATER."MUMMY!"The happy voices yanked Elena out of her sleep and a frown formed on her face as her window started streaming bright blinding light from it. She looked at her left with narrowed eyes and tried using her hand to shield the sun from her eyes as her son struggled to open the blinds.She sighed and looked at her daughter, Amy in front of her, sitting on the bed with a bright smile on her face. Their enthusiasm made her remember what she promised them. "Oh." She breathed out."Don't tell me you forgot, mom." Her son, Xander uttered as he walked towards the other side, and climbed onto the bed.Elena chuckled. "Of course, I didn't." She sat up from the bed. "But you haven't even given me a good morning."They giggled and immediately hugged her with kisses on her cheeks. "Good morning, mommy." They greeted in unison.She looked to see they were both beautifully dressed up. "Your uncle dressed you up, ah?" She noticed, seeing her daughter dressed in a pink princess

It was a fun day for Elena and her kids. Their laughter alone replenished her after what happened while she was in the restroom of a restaurant they attended for dinner.She was unlucky to meet a once acquaintance of hers. A girl who hated her guts, a girl who was darn jealous of her because she married Alexander Black.He's after all, a cynosure of all eyes. A man every girl wants to open their legs for."So this is where you ran to?" Was her first statement to Elena.Elena lowered her gaze, took a towel, and cleaned her hands, wanting to ignore the girl.The girl pushed her arm making Elena stumble back. She gave her a confused look. "What's your problem, Betty?"Betty scoffed, folding her arms as she glowered at Elena. "Problem? I don't have any. Hearing about you and Alex breaking up, was like the food I was so hungry for, it filled me."Elena nodded. "Yeah, well that's four years ago and in the past. You've got what you want, good for you, so leave me alone."Betty smiled at her.

Elena was stiffened to the spot where she stood, her hand on her door, and her eyes locked on Alex. The confusion in her knew no bounds. It felt like the shock paralyzed her.A man who pushed her out of his house was suddenly in front of her once again. Why? Why is he here now?Although he's still as handsome as usual. His perfectly chiseled face, perfectly styled black hair, his blue eyes, and the way he dresses, it didn't change. Black pantsuits, black coat, black everything. Six feet three inches tall while she's just five feet, seven inches. There wasn't any change in him she could notice.Alex didn't say anything to her. He just stared, more like accessed her, how different she looked, how more beautiful she became.Elena let out a shaky breath and blinked away after deciding to come back to her senses. "What are you doing here?""Aren't you gonna invite me in?" He asked seriously.Elena shook her head. "No, I won't, cause you're not welcomed."Alex nodded. "Fair, but what I've c

It was a new week, and Alex was completely lost in thoughts even though he seemed engrossed in a file in his office. He was an impatient man but he was trying so hard not to stand up, drive his car, and zoomed toward the restaurant Elena works in. He missed her so much and decided to see her only to find out he was a father.It's something he couldn't even tell his parents until he got closer to them. He wants her back, so badly but he needed to give her time, more space since he knew his appearance overwhelmed her.He doesn't normally think like this, but for Elena he does. It was due to the love he has for her, the love that makes him different from her.He wished he realized it sooner. The simple difference in the picture. He was so blinded by rage that he couldn't even see clearly or think straight.His door opened, revealing his secretary. She smiled as she walked toward him. "Mr. Black."Alex looked at his wristwatch and back at her with a serious expression. "Why are you here?"

Elena did her rounds of cooking for the day, and all through, she has been thinking about Alex. It's been a week since they last saw him, and it made her wonder if he has given up.She pulled off her apron and hair net to give the next chef space to start her rounds.A waitress came toward her. "Miss Millers."Elena looked at her with raised eyebrows. "What's it?""We have a customer that seemed to be looking for you. He said he's only gonna eat your food."Elena furrowed her brows in confusion and left the kitchen towards the room where customers are attended to.Alex waved at her making her sigh."You know him? He's handsome." The waitress remarked.Elena gave her a frown before looking back at Alex. She walked towards the table and sat down on the chair. "I thought I wasn't gonna be seeing you."Alex chuckled. "Why? Were you praying for it?"Elena decided to ignore the question. "So why are you here?""The last time I came, I came for you, and I wanted to say something to you. I di

"Feed me more, mommy." Amy bounced on Elena's lap as she ate French fries."Patient, baby, you have ketchup on your face," Elena said, stopping her from moving, before cleaning the ketchup off her mouth. "Better.""Thanks, mommy."Alex's mouth curved up in a small smile before looking at Xander who ate on his own. His little man. "So, little man, what do you want to be when you grow up?"Xander grinned. "Use people to make money and become rich."Alex's brow stretched in amusement, while Elena just sighed."Use people, ah? You don't like people?" He decided to ask wanting to know what his reply will be.Xander frowned like he was disgusted by something. "Yes. I'll scare them and get rich."Alex smirked. "A good one."Xander widened his eyes at him. "Really? You don't think it's scary? Mommy always says that."Alex looked at her. "Of course. She says that a lot to your daddy, and he'll be very proud of you." He said, running his hand through his hair.Amy looked at him. "You know my da

Elena arrived at the restaurant where she was supposed to meet an important someone. Having Alex back in her life has been honestly relaxing for the past two weeks. How he was with the children, his love for them, reminded her of a lot.Marrying an arrogant and conceited man was never on her tab or her ideal man, but the love he could have, the love he could give, the way he could make you feel different and special, he did make her feel that way until she fell in love without realizing it.But how can she forget everything she went through? When did he realize the truth, why didn't he come for her earlier? What has he been doing these four years after their divorce?There were thoughts in her mind that made her feel pain in her heart. He could have gotten himself with different women but she shouldn't be affected, she's no longer married to him.She smiled at the person already there waiting for her and waving at her. It felt awkward though, especially remembering how she decided to

"Boss, just give me the go-ahead and I'll kill Andrew this instant," Jaguar stated with a sneer formed on his face.The boss shook his head in disagreement before looking up at Jaguar. "I've told you, Jaguar, bring him to me instead. How hard could that be?""Well, boss, it wouldn't be due to friendly conversation. If I'm gonna bring him here, it will be out of duress. I just wanna be sure if that's what you want."The boss gave him a blank look, his mind going to different places as he pondered on the statement, then he let out a wry chuckle. "I need information from him, Jaguar. He's the only way right now to know what's going on out there. I hate the fact that I know nothing.""We can force things out of him..."The door suddenly opened, causing the boss to look and Jaguar to turn toward it. They were both surprised at who decided to visit."You don't have to," Andrew noted with a smirk written on his face.The boss furrowed his brows in confusion. "And what does that mean, Andrew?

It was late at night, Alex and Elena were lying on the bed with Alex facing the ceiling and Elena's head and hand placed on his body. It was quiet for a while, especially since he has things to think about.Not just their impending problem but there is also work. He just couldn't wait to clear the danger out of his family so they can just peacefully live."Are you awake?" He asked."No," Elena answered, her head still on his chest, counting the steady beats of his heart."There's something important I want to talk to you about."Elena furrowed her brows in curiosity and rose her head up to look at him. "About what?""He looked at her. " I uh, I found your dad."Her eyes widened and she sat up. "What?"He nodded and equally sat up. "Yeah. I found him.""Who...who is he?" She quickly asked, needing an urgent answer."My godfather, Brian Jordan. I'm sure you've met him."Elena blinked and looked away, remembering the man. She swallowed as she kept thinking about him like his image was go

Brian entered the coffee shop and spotted Alex so focused on his tablet. He's been wondering what serious conversation Alex wanted to lay on the table. He knew everything with Alex was serious.He walked toward the table and sat down. "So, I'm here."Alex dropped the tablet on the table and looked at him. He wanted to hit the nail on the head. "The last time we talked, I told you about someone who seems to be after your daughters. I told you I know you know who is after them."Brian grimaced, looking confused. "Yeah, but I didn't get it.""Who took your girls away from you?" Alex questioned.Brian sighed. "It was someone I know who has a vendetta against me. Although there was no evidence to prove it, I know he kidnapped my children.""Who is he then?" Alex inquired."Jacob Jefferson. Once a friend, then he became an enemy."Alex bobbed his head, digesting his words. "Jacob Jefferson. He's the boss.""What boss?""The mastermind. The reason why everything happened. You must have thoug

Alex alighted out of his car and hurriedly walked toward his porch since he knows Elena was there waiting for her. As he arrived, she immediately pulled him into a hug. "You're here at last. I've been waiting."Alex nodded, caressing her back. "I know." He pulled her away a little so he could look at her. "Are you okay, though?""I'm terrified, Alex. They said those people were after me. Someone died, why the hell are these things happening?" She anxiously replied.Alex shook his head. "Still figuring things out, really. It had to have been the main mastermind behind it. I just don't know why he's after you. Soon I will though."Elena sighed. "Okay. Let's...let's go in. You should freshen up too. The kids will soon be back from school."Alex nodded. "Okay." They walked in, holding hands, then his phone buzzed.He stopped in his tracks as he saw it was a message from his brother."What's it?" Elena asked him."Andrew sent me a message. He's been trying to talk to me for a while now." A

Elena smiled at the cashier as her goods were given to her. "Thanks." She said, taking it and leaving the grocery store.The bags were immediately taken by the guards Alex placed for her protection. "Let's hold them for you." One of them said and the other took them.Elena smiled and nodded.A call on her phone made her stop and she took it. "Hello, who's this?""It's your assistant, ma'am. I'm wondering how long you'll be back with the groceries. You could have just let me do the job."Elena chuckled, taking slow steps. "I guess. That will be after I slowly get used to getting someone to buy my groceries. I'm already out though, I'm just going to my car.""Okay."Elena nodded and hung the call-up. She looked at one of the guards. "The car?""Henry is bringing it." The guard informed.Elena nodded and stood as she waited.Just as immediately, she instinctively ducked and yelped at the sound of a gunshot hitting the glass doors. "Oh, God." She gasped as the gunshot kept coming."Ma'am,

Cora phoned Brian excessively but nothing and it bothered her. She wondered why he was ignoring her and it infuriated her.She sucked from a straw the coffee she ordered and leaned back against the chair. Looking at the door at any sudden chime of the bell expecting Brian to walk in.She sighed since deep down she knew he won't come. She messaged him too but of course, he should also not give a damn about her messages.She shudder to wonder why he was being that way toward her or did he find out things about her. Did he investigate who she is and ended up left in the lurch? It had to have been the circumstance.She groaned realizing she was failing. It's not as if she lied that much. What rotten thing is there to dig up about her?Or did he get tired? Did he get fed up or he just doesn't want to involve himself with another woman since according to him, his heart is forever for his wife? She cringed at that thought.She's gonna have to come up with something else and this time, she ca

Alex opened the envelope in his hands and brought out the document that was brought to him, engulfed in curiousness.He unfolded the paper and stared at the one important word. He dropped it down and took his phone, screening out his father's name then he made a call.After two rings. "Hello, dad.""Alex. You hardly call except if it's something important. What's up?" Robert asked."I need to speak to godfather. It's something important.""Is it what I think it is?" Robert asked again.Alex nodded. "Yeah. I don't have his number so tell him we need to meet at Haven, an hour from now.""Alright then. I'll convey that."Alex nodded again and hung the call-up."Is that..."Robert turned and looked at his son, Andrew."Was that Alex on the phone?" Andrew asked.Robert nodded. "Yeah. We were both talking about something important, why?"Andrew shook his head. "Nothing. I've just been trying his number but he's ignoring my calls."Robert rose a brow. "Oh. You know your brother is still angr

Andrea opened the office door of Elena who was overseeing some paperwork for her new restaurant. Elena looked up and smiled. "I was informed of your visit."Andrea nodded and dragged a chair. "I saw what happened between you and my brother. That girl that came between you two..."Elena shook her head. "Don't worry, we've solved the matter and as it turns out, I and your brother are still married."Andrea's mouth fell open in shock. "What?""He never took it to court. He threw it into the ocean."Andrea blinked and looked away still in shock. "Wow. That brother of mine."Elena nodded. "I know, right? Though no one has to know, especially our enemies."Andrea equally nodded. "Talking about enemies, the main reason I came here was to tell you that that girl that came between the both of you wasn't ordinary, it was planned."Elena furrowed her brows in confusion. "Planned? What do you mean?""I knew I saw your mother in that event but it wasn't that clear. After you guys left, I followed

Tucking his kids in the back seat, Alex entered his car and called Liam. He's been curious about how the raid went but this new information he received from his dad has taken over his train of thought.Liam finally answered his call as he walked out of his captain's office. "Why didn't you pick up my call earlier?" He asked as he got to his desk."Talking to my dad, how did it go?"Liam nodded. "It went well. We got them all, and no one escaped. We also confiscated all the drugs in their hold.""That's good news. Have you gotten any information from them?"Liam shook his head. "That's the problem. No one is talking. They're all quiet.""They're probably scared.""Still, we're trying to get information from them. We caught them red-handed, there's nothing they can do to get themselves out of it."Alex nodded. "Alright. Just keep me updated.""I will."As Alex hung up, he looked out the window and he heard his name."ALEX!"He frowned wondering why Andrew is calling him, so urgently. He
