Love's Redemption Chapter 821
"Mr. Johnston, we need to seal the area for further investigation," the officer told Jace.He exhaled slowly. "Today's their burial. Please, finish quickly so my parents can rest.""Understood, Mr. Johnston!"The officers combed through every inch of the coffin, dismantling it piece by piece. Their verdict? Evidence—enough to destroy the entire Johnston family—was stashed in its base.Jace, as expected, was brought in for questioning. His one request? To bury his parents first.We stood side by side, tossing the first handfuls of dirt over Matthew and Lindey's graves.When it was over, Aaron was gone.Where had he disappeared to? Was he saving Lena? The thought of her being kidnappedmade my chest tighten again.Aaron would do anything to rescue her—I knew that much. But waiting around wasn't my style. I had to act.And Hayden... I didn't even know who he was anymore. But I did remember one thing: he said the urn contained a data sync device. Maybe it was finally time to use
Love's Redemption Chapter 822
I was alone, restrained, and completely outnumbered. All I could do was watch as they tore into the mound of dirt I'd buried.It didn't take long for them to uncover the sealed pit holding the urn.These guys weren't fazed at all—after all, they already knew Hayden was alive. To them, the urn was just a container, nothing more."Mr. Drago, we've got it," one of them said, holding the urn up to Cole like it was some kind of trophy.Cole didn't grab it right away. Instead, he gave me this smug look. "Keira, when you got this thing, did it never cross your mind to, I don't know, open it?""Not everyone's a twisted creep like you," I shot back.He rolled the blade of grass between his teeth, grinning. "It's called curiosity. Seeing is believing, you know.""Well, when your dad kicks the bucket, make sure you give it a good look," I said, letting the sarcasm drip. "Not that you'll get the chance.""Touché," he said with a smirk. "But let's not get sidetracked. Since you've never loo
Love's Redemption Chapter 823
I rolled my eyes so hard they almost got stuck. Hayden really had way too much time on his hands. Decorating an urn and stashing a data sync device in a jewelry box? Was this some kind of cosmic joke?Then again, maybe he'd done it to throw people off—make them think it was just a random trinket and not something insanely valuable."What the hell is this?" Cole snapped, reaching for the box.I smacked his hand away. "Chill, Drago. What's the rush? Don't you afraid there's a scorpion inside or something?"He gave me an annoyed side-eye. "Just open it already. Hayden's brain must be a circus to come up with this nonsense."Ignoring him, I pulled the tiny red box from its fluffy nest of white feathers.It was way too light. No way it held the device.Still, I flipped it open—and, of course, my eyes nearly popped out of my head."A ring?" Cole said, his voice somewhere between disbelief and irritation.Yup. A diamond ring. And judging by the size of that rock, it could probably pa

He'd do it.But what could I possibly give him when I had nothing?"Well, stop wasting time and bury me already," I said, sounding almost bored. Fear wasn't something I felt anymore—not after everything I'd been through."Cole, you've seen it yourself—there's nothing here," I added, my voice steady. "Hayden told me he left something in this spot, and that's why I kept quiet. But guess what? He fooled me too." I let out a bitter laugh, hoping it sounded convincing.This was my only shot—to make Cole believe Hayden had played me, just like everyone else. If he bought it, maybe he'd stop digging and forget about Yara entirely."Don't try that crap on me," Cole snapped, narrowing his eyes. "You two are cunning. I know you're hiding something."One of his goons cut in hesitantly. "Uh, sir? Maybe we should keep digging? Could be deeper."I rolled my eyes. Genius idea."Then get moving!" Cole barked, yanking me closer to the grave as his men started digging again.They kept at it, go
Love's Redemption Chapter 825
Cole yanked his arm back, keeping the ring just out of reach. His longer arms made it impossible for me to grab it."You're so attached to this ring—don't tell me it's special," he said, squinting at it as he flipped it over and over in his hand."Maybe there's more to it..." he muttered."You're delusional," I snapped.But he ignored me, laser-focused on the ring. I was too tired to keep arguing—being pregnant had me running on fumes—and before I knew it, I'd drifted off into a deep, dreamless sleep.That is, until something soft brushed my face.Startled, I woke up to see Cole sitting there, his cat's tail swishing against my cheek.Of course. First foxtail grass, now a cat? Apparently, Cole had a thing for soft, fluffy things.People like that? Deep down, they're usually just desperate for a little love.His smug grin didn't help. "You slept like a baby. Didn't even flinch. Guess you trust me, huh? Not worried I'll sell you off?""You're keeping me alive because I'm useful
Love's Redemption Chapter 826
Yara crossed her arms. "Even me, huh? What's next, locking up the family cat? Aren't you even a little worried about karma?"Apparently, Cole had decided to throw her under house arrest with me.Honestly, I wasn't shocked—just a little meh about it. This was Cole, the guy who'd literally set his own mom on fire for power. Compassion? Not in his vocabulary.Jace just stood there like a bored spectator. Whether it was at the funeral or now, he felt like a completely different person."Aunt Yara, you're one of Hayden's people. Right now, anyone tied to him could be a liability. I'm just keeping all my pawns in one place, ready to play." His tone was all smug.Then he side-eyed Jace. "Right, Jace? Back me up here."Jace ignored him completely, looking straight at me instead. "You okay?""Fine," I said, but my worry got the better of me. "Any news about Lena? Has Mr. Ace done anything?"I knew it was dumb to ask with Cole right there, but I couldn't help it—I was too anxious."Aaro
Love's Redemption Chapter 827
Did Yara tag along with Jace just to make sure she could crash here?"I want the cream soup silky smooth. Oh, and remove the onions from the food after cooking—I like the taste, but I'm not eating them. And maybe—" I started listing my demands when Yara spun around, raising an eyebrow at me."Wow. Jace really spoiled you, huh?" she said, shaking her head. "You're so picky."She wasn't done. "And FYI, I'm not your personal chef. Don't want onions? Pick 'em out yourself." With that, she waltzed into the kitchen.Clearly, she was hinting at something, so I decided to follow—casually, of course. On the inside? I was dying to sprint. But if she was playing it cool, so would I.By the time I got to the kitchen, she was already prepping the ingredients, her knife skills surprisingly pro-level."Impressive," I said."It's called independence," she said, hitting me with a mini lecture. "Just because someone spoils you doesn't mean you can't handle yourself."Okay, point taken.But even
Love's Redemption Chapter 828
Breaking this ring off? Yeah, no. First, I had zero tools. Second, any noise would have Cole barging in faster than I could say "busted."Hayden had called this a data sync device, which meant it could send info wirelessly. So maybe my phone could pick up the signal? Worth a shot.I grabbed my phone, opened the wireless settings, and bingo—there it was: qqbb522. The last three digits? My birthday. I didn't even try to figure out what the letters meant. I just connected it immediately.When it asked for a password, I remembered the debit card pin Hayden gave me ages ago and added my birthdate digits at the end.My heart was pounding as the screen showed: Connecting...And then—connected!My blood practically fizzed with excitement. But before I could celebrate, my phone went haywire. The screen flashed like it had caught a virus, apps opening and closing on their own. Then, it went totally black.I froze.Great, had it been hacked?Panicking, I tapped the screen. Then fireworks

"Got it!" Lena responded cheerfully. She washed her hands before sitting back down, picking up the utensils Aaron had prepared for her, and diving into her dumpling-and-dipping-sauce breakfast combo. "Uncle, why aren’t you eating?" She had already eaten two dumplings before realizing he hadn’t touched any. "I’m not hungry." Three words. Which meant he hadn’t eaten yet. "There’s too much food. I can’t finish it all by myself. Eat some too," Lena said casually as she picked up a dumpling with her chopsticks and held it up to his mouth. She did it so naturally—until she realized what she had just done. Aaron froze for a second, surprised by her gesture. The moment of hesitation made her realize too—wasn’t this kind of inappropriate? She was just about to pull her hand back when— He leaned in and took the dumpling straight into his mouth. Lena’s face flushed red in an instant. She hurriedly withdrew her hand, lowered her head, and focused on eating. Meanwhile, Aar
Love's Redemption Chapter 1012
She was shocked to see him here so early. Especially today—a day when everyone was celebrating the new year, spending time with their loved ones—and yet, he was here. With her. Lena wasn’t made of stone. She felt it. A warmth, an unspoken emotion that settled deep in her chest. "Uncle, why are you here so early?" She walked over, hands casually tucked into her coat pockets. "I didn’t want you to go hungry," Aaron replied simply, lifting the bag of food in his hand. He glanced at her break room. "Open the door." She unlocked the door and stepped inside, with him following close behind. Her break room was small—a single desk and chair, a narrow bed, and a tiny wardrobe. Nothing extra, nothing unnecessary. "Sit down, Uncle," she said naturally, settling onto the bed while motioning for him to take the chair. Aaron placed the food down and asked, "Did you sleep at all?" "I did," Lena replied. But as soon as the words left her mouth, she thought of that dream—and let o

"If it weren’t for my goddaughter, I wouldn’t even bother with you," Lena said, gently rocking the baby in her arms. "Right, little Aurora? Your godmother just adores you." "Come on, Aurora, it’s time to eat," Lena said as she carefully placed the baby in Keira's arms. Although it was her first time, Keira wasn’t embarrassed. She followed Lena’s instructions, trying to breastfeed for the first time. But the process was… painful. And since her posture was incorrect, neither of them got it right—Keira ended up covered in sweat from struggling, and her baby still hadn’t eaten properly. Panic set in. Anxiety crept up her spine. "What do I do?" Keira asked, her voice tight with unease. "It’s okay. This happens at first. Let’s transition with formula for now," Lena reassured Keira before glancing at Hayden, who had been standing there the whole time, watching anxiously—and sweating just as much as Keira was. "Go make your daughter a bottle," she told him. Hayden, the man wh
Love's Redemption Chapter 1010
That conversation… Lena shuddered. Yeah, she had definitely come back too early. It was best to leave now before she ruined the mood for those two inside. Not wanting to hear any more, she quickly turned to leave—only to smack her leg against a nearby chair. The pain was real, but worse was the noise it made, drawing attention to her presence. Inside the room, Hayden—already feeling awkward from Keira's teasing—froze. The sound from outside made him even more uncomfortable. Keira couldn’t hold back her laughter. The moment Keira burst out laughing, however, pain shot through her lower abdomen. "Ah—ow!" Keira gasped. Hayden immediately panicked. "What’s wrong? Where does it hurt?" Hearing her cry, Lena rushed in as well. "What happened?" "I laughed too hard and pulled my stitches," Keira explained, gripping Hayden’s hand tightly. Lena glared at Keira. "You’re a mother now, and yet you’re still acting like a child. Do you have any idea what condition you’re in?"
Love's Redemption Chapter 1009
"It’s fine. I can do it," Hayden said naturally as he picked up the basin and went to fetch warm water. The moment he stepped out, Lena turned to scold Keira. "You went through so much pain to give birth to his child. Why would you feel bad about letting him do something for you?" "It’s not that I feel bad—I just feel embarrassed," Keira whispered in defense. Lena rolled her eyes. "So dramatic." Keira shot her a glare in return. "Just wait until it’s your turn. When your husband has to handle your private matters, you’ll understand how awkward it is." The moment the words left Keira's mouth, she saw Lena’s face turn red. Lena quickly hugged the baby and turned away. But Keira caught it. Something was off. "Wait… why are you blushing?" Keira asked suspiciously. "I am not blushing," she denied immediately. What Keira didn’t know was that her words had triggered the memory of Lena's ridiculous dream—where she had been lying on the delivery bed, cursing Aaron while gi
Love's Redemption Chapter 1008
The moment she finished cursing, Lena jolted awake. She sat there, dazed. What kind of ridiculous dream was that? She had assisted in delivering countless babies before, but this was the first time she had ever dreamed of giving birth herself. And not only that—she had dreamed of giving birth to Aaron’s child? That was beyond outrageous. Absolutely absurd! What a way to start the new year. That dream was anything but beautiful. Lena ran a hand down her face, shaking off the lingering unease. She quickly got up, poured herself a glass of water to calm down, and then left the break room. Back in the hospital room, Hayden was feeding Keira. Keira was perfectly capable of eating on her own, but he insisted on feeding her, saying that she was in a special period and should be treated like a queen. That this was the time to learn how to be spoiled properly. Fine. If this was how he wanted to make up for the suffering she endured giving birth to their daughter, she’d give
Love's Redemption Chapter 1007
Keira looked at Lena and smiled as she followed up on Hayden’s words. "You’re family. It’s different." Lena shot her a subtle glare before stuffing the red envelope into her pocket and saying, "Give me the rest. I’ll hand them out for you later." Hayden passed her the prepared stack of red envelopes, and as she took them, she asked, "What about the other departments?" Hayden and Aaron exchanged a glance and chuckled. "Of course. Every medical staff member in this hospital gets one." "President Hart, you’re too generous," Lena said, giving him a thumbs-up. With that, she took the envelopes and left. Aaron glanced at the time. "If there’s nothing else, I’ll be heading back now." "Mm. Happy New Year!" Hayden said, offering his holiday wishes. "Happy New Year to your whole family," Aaron replied, adding a few extra words that made both Hayden and me instinctively turn toward the baby in the bassinet. From today onward, we were officially a family of three. Outside the h
Love's Redemption Chapter 1006
When Keira returned to the hospital room, she was greeted by a sight that made her pause. The room was decorated with fresh flowers and balloons, and beside her bed, there was a small cart filled with various gift boxes. The atmosphere was so festive that if someone walked in, they might have thought it was a birthday party rather than a postpartum recovery room. "What’s all this?" Lena asked on Keira's behalf. "A reward for my wife," Hayden answered, his hand still holding Keira's as he gazed at her with deep affection. "She went through so much. This is my way of thanking her." Keira smiled faintly. "I don’t need any of this." "Whether you need it or not is one thing. Giving it to you is my choice," Hayden said, pressing a kiss onto Keira's fingertips. "Even if everything I have already belongs to you, I still want to give you more." "Such a loving husband—honestly, what more could a woman ask for?" Lena teased before patting Keira's hospital bed. "But if President Hart r
Love's Redemption Chapter 1005
Elder Mitchell wasn’t buying it. "That just means you guys didn’t really want to give anything. If you truly wanted to, there’s no such thing as a gift that can’t be delivered." The two old men started bickering again, but Hayden ignored them. Instead, he kept his eyes on the infant bathing room. Before long, the nurse finished bathing the baby and carried her out. Hayden reached out to take her, but the two elders immediately moved to get closer. He blocked them without hesitation. "Don’t you know old people’s eyes are toxic? You shouldn’t be staring at her for too long." Elder Hart: "…" Elder Mitchell: "…" With that, Hayden carried the baby and walked away. The two old men trailed after him, hoping to catch another glimpse, but Hayden wasn’t about to give them the chance. "Congratulations," Aaron, who had been standing nearby, offered his well wishes. "It’s a daughter. Take a look," Hayden said, his pride practically radiating off him. Aaron lowered his gaze to the
