Chapter 1514

Author: Faith Shaw
Jamie struggled desperately to free herself from Ben’s grip, but it was futile.

Ben watched her attempts with a mix of frustration and curiosity. Beyond her anger and resistance, Jamie showed no other emotions.

Yet, according to Caden, she had risked everything to obtain the recording. His mother had also confirmed it was Jamie who had handed it over.

Still, she had never used it to threaten him.

Ben’s voice dripped with sarcasm as he stared her down. “What’s your angle, Jamie? You risked so much to get that recording, you ignored your son’s safety, and now you’re here telling me to take care of your sister and build a happy life with her? Are you really that noble?”

His sharp, icy gaze bore into her, as though he wanted to rip her apart piece by piece.

Jamie hadn’t expected Ben to know the truth, but it didn’t matter. She had done what she felt was right and had no intention of using it against him.

“My sister is carrying your child, and the two of you are engaged

    The bitterness in Jamie’s heart surged like an unstoppable tide. She hesitated for a long moment before speaking softly, almost timidly. “She’s my sister. No matter what happens, we’ll work it out.” Suddenly, Ben, reeking of alcohol, lurched toward her, his bloodshot eyes locking onto hers. “And what about me?” he demanded, his voice harsh and raw. “What am I to you? You left without a word, Jamie. What did you take me for?” Jamie couldn’t bring herself to meet his gaze. She turned her head awkwardly, her voice barely audible. “It’s all in the past. There’s no point in talking about it now.” Ben stared at her calm, indifferent expression, and for the first time, he felt the weight of all these years of longing and heartache was nothing but a cruel joke. “It’s easy for you to say it doesn’t matter because you’ve moved on,” he said, his tone laced with bitterness. “But how can anyone understand their mistakes if they don’t feel the pain?” With those words, his exp

    Ben’s voice was low and hoarse, each word sounding as though it was wrenched from deep within. Jamie’s heart felt like it was being torn apart. She knew she had no defense. It was true that she had chosen to leave. She had chosen to abandon their love. But she had her reasons! “Ben, I—” Before she could say another word, Ben cut her off, his voice harsh and unyielding. “Don’t say anything. I don’t want to hear it!” Jamie flinched at his abrupt interruption, tears spilling from her eyes. A profound sense of helplessness enveloped her as she turned her face away, silently enduring the humiliation and despair that hung in the air. Just as Ben was on the verge of overstepping an irreversible line, a clear, piercing voice shattered the silence of the office. “Ben, what are you doing?” The words rang out like a thunderclap, freezing them both in place. They turned toward the doorway to see Winnie standing there, her face pale and her wide, disbelieving eyes f

    Winnie turned her head, only to be blinded by a glaring white light. She instinctively stumbled backward but lost her balance in the rush, landing hard on the ground. The small delivery truck swerved sharply, narrowly grazing her back before screeching to a halt just behind her. Pain shot through her body. A cold sensation seemed to spread, replacing the warmth she desperately clung to. Sweat poured down her forehead as a sharp, agonizing cramp spread through her lower abdomen. She instinctively placed a hand on her stomach, only to feel a warm, sticky flow. Blood. Her eyes widened in terror as she screamed, “Help me! Somebody, help!” The truck driver, clearly shaken and panicked, glanced back briefly before flooring the gas pedal and fleeing the scene. The cold night air cut through her like a blade as she lay sprawled on the wide, empty road, the pain tearing through her body amplifying the bitterness and hatred already consuming her. ……Meanwhile, Jamie had ru

    “You can rest assured, we’ll speak to the doctor about the baby,” the kind stranger said. Only then did Winnie close her eyes, finally letting herself relax.Meanwhile, Ben had been sitting alone in the dark for what felt like ages. He had a few drinks, but his mind was only growing sharper and colder with each passing moment.*Knock, knock, knock!*The sudden noise broke through the silence, echoing sharply in the stillness. His lips curled into a slight smirk. So, she had come after all. But when he opened the door and saw who it was, the playful smile on his face vanished, replaced by an icy chill. “Who are you?” The delivery driver, dressed in his uniform, suddenly felt a shiver run down his spine. He cleared his throat nervously and held up a bag. “Mr. Ben Lucas, right? This is your express delivery.”Ben narrowed his eyes slightly, a flicker of something unreadable crossing his face. “That woman really does have a bit of wit,” he muttered to himself.Without sayi

    Winnie’s face twisted into a mocking smile as she glanced back at Charlie, her expression dark and unnerving. “What if the one who hurt me is your mom?” Charlie froze, his innocent eyes wide with disbelief, but he still whispered, “Mom wouldn’t hurt you, Aunt Winnie.” Winnie let out a cold, bitter laugh. Why should her sister’s child thrive while her own never even had the chance to see this world? Why should she endure such loss while Jamie got to keep everything? “I want to see my mom,” Charlie whimpered, his small voice trembling with unease. Winnie forced herself to soften, her tone placating. “I was just joking. When we get to where we’re going, I’ll let you call your mom, okay?” Charlie’s worry eased as he turned his attention back to the scenery outside the car window, humming happily to himself. Meanwhile, Jamie had been calling all morning, her worry mounting with each unanswered ring. She couldn’t shake the feeling that something was deeply wrong.

    Jamie was too overwhelmed to handle the tangled mess of emotions and threats. All she could focus on was Charlie’s safety. Her voice cracked as she nearly begged Winnie.“He’s your blood relative. What are you trying to do? Don’t use him to threaten me. I’ll help you.” Winnie let out a cold laugh. “Jamie, you’re nothing but a hypocrite. Without leverage, would you really be so willing to do what I ask?” Jamie tried to reason further, but Winnie cut her off impatiently. “Enough with the useless chatter. I need you to get Ben to meet me.” Jamie’s heart sank. “What are you planning?” Winnie’s voice carried a mocking edge. “That’s between me and him.” Jamie hesitated before replying, “Ben and I haven’t been in contact for a long time. I might not be able to do it.” Winnie’s tone turned icy and menacing. “That’s your problem. I assume you still care about Charlie’s safety, right?” Jamie fell silent. Winnie was teetering on the edge of madness. If Jamie didn’t

    Ben grabbed his keys and headed for the door. His assistant immediately called out, “Mr. Lucas, where are you headed? Should I adjust your schedule?”“No need. Cancel all my afternoon appointments.” Ben left these words behind as he strode out toward the parking lot. Sitting in his car, he couldn’t help but berate himself. “What am I doing? Chasing after her again, just because of one vague comment.” After hesitating for a moment, he still decided to go check it out. Meanwhile, two men with hardened expressions were watching him closely in a black car nearby. One of them nudged his partner. “Hey, isn’t that him?” The other man, who had been typing a message on his phone, looked up sharply. His eyes narrowed as he saw Ben step into his luxury car. “That’s him. It’s because of his defense that my son got such a harsh sentence. Even if he turned to ash, I’d recognize him.” “He’s heading out alone. Isn’t this the perfect chance?” The two exchanged a look of agreemen

    Ben never expected Jamie to take the blade for him.Caught off guard, he stared in shock as Jamie clutched his arm, her voice trembling with desperation. “Ben, please… save my child…”*When Jamie woke up, she found herself in a hospital room. Pain shot through her body, but her thoughts were only of Charlie. She quickly sent a message to Winnie.“Winnie, if someone has to pay, let it be me. A life for a life. Please don’t hurt Charlie. He’s innocent, and he loves you so much.”Jamie hoped to appeal to Winnie’s emotions, trying to remind her of the bond they once shared. But Winnie’s heart was hardened.Her child was gone, lost before ever seeing the light of day. And yet, Jamie’s and Ben’s child was safe and sound. To Winnie, it was an unbearable injustice.If Jamie had ever truly thought of her as a sister, she would have told her the truth from the very beginning. She would have revealed Ben’s identity and his intentions. But Jamie had said nothing, standing by as Winnie fell

    But instead of feeling touched, Vera’s first reaction was nausea. A wave of discomfort surged up from her stomach, and Vera’s face paled. She bolted for the bathroom. Caleb followed quickly. “Are you feeling sick?” “I don’t think so. I’ve been eating normally—nothing too heavy or weird lately.” Vera clutched her stomach, just as confused as he was. Then, a possibility flashed through her mind. Caleb clearly had the same thought. Without a word, he turned and walked into their bedroom, returning moments later with a pregnancy test. Vera looked at him, stunned. “When did you buy that?” He responded matter-of-factly, “Better safe than sorry.” Vera was momentarily speechless. Five minutes later, she stepped out of the bathroom, her hand instinctively resting on her stomach, her expression a mix of shock and disbelief. It was positive. They had only been married for three months. How did this happen so fast?Caleb, on the other hand, remained composed—at le

    Of course, Vera wasn’t about to dump all her responsibilities on her assistant. That would be exploitation. She called her assistant into her office. “You’re twenty-five this year, right?” Her assistant blinked, confused. Wasn’t her age common knowledge? Why was Vera suddenly bringing it up? A thought struck her. Was this an arranged marriage situation? Her face immediately filled with silent refusal. “Miss Vera, I’m still young. I’m not thinking about marriage anytime soon.” Vera tapped her pen against the desk. “I’m not telling you to get married.” “Oh.” “I just want to offload some of the smaller daily tasks to you. You don’t have to run every minor document by me.”Her assistant instantly understood. A raise. After confirming she was on board, Vera gave her a salary bump and had her hire a few more assistants to distribute the workload. “If I don’t have time to handle everything, you guys will take care of it. If something’s too complicated, jus

    Vera could sense danger the moment the conversation turned in this direction. Her father had never questioned her about married life, and she was lucky enough to avoid nosy relatives. But just because she hadn’t experienced it firsthand didn’t mean she hadn’t seen it happen to others. Without hesitation, she abandoned the half-folded pastry in her hands. “I... uh, need to use the restroom.” Before she could escape, Mrs. Smith caught her wrist. “You and Caleb aren’t getting any younger,” she said matter-of-factly. “You should start thinking about kids—make sure you’re putting in the effort, hmm?” Vera left the kitchen visibly drained. Mrs. Smith was a wonderful mother-in-law, the kind who treated Vera like her own daughter. Despite knowing Vera came from a well-off family, she had still gifted them a house as a wedding present. Of course, Caleb already owned a place, but his mother had insisted. “That’s your house. This is the home I’m giving you as a weddi

    That undeniable possessiveness flickered in Caleb’s gaze—subtle yet impossible to ignore. It was the kind of look a powerful man might give his beloved in an old Hollywood film. And right now, the photographer felt like the unlucky bystander who had accidentally stumbled upon an intimate scene. His voice wavered slightly, caught up in his own imagination. “Mr. Smith, lift your eyes toward the camera.” Caleb’s sharp gaze flickered over, intense and commanding. The photographer instinctively pressed the shutter. They continued with several more poses, reviewing the shots as they went. Vera loved them all, but her favorite was still the vintage-inspired one. “How long until we get the final prints?” she asked. “Two to three days at most,” the photographer replied. “I’ll have them shipped directly to you.” Then, after a slight pause, he hesitated before making a request. “I actually have a personal favor to ask—would you both be open to letting us displa

    Vera was tempted. They had already taken plenty of wedding photos—several sets at the island, more at the wedding itself. But this wasn’t just any photo studio. It was privately booked and known for being one of the most prestigious studios in the city. Appointments here were nearly impossible to get. The fact that Caleb had managed to secure a session meant he had gone to great lengths to make it happen. If they were just going to take ordinary wedding pictures, it would be a waste of an opportunity. Still, she wasn’t sure what kind of shoot she wanted. The photographer, understanding her hesitation, pulled out a sample album. “You can take a look at our past work. These are some of the styles we’ve done.” Flipping through the pages, Vera saw an array of stunning concepts—each picture more breathtaking than the last. Then, one particular set caught her eye. A Golden Age Hollywood theme.It was classic, nostalgic, and beautifully atmospheric. “Ca

    After the wedding, Vera considered taking some time off for a honeymoon. But the thought quickly faded when she realized Caleb had been practically living at the hospital. With a sigh, she dismissed the idea. She was used to it, but to say she wasn’t disappointed would be a lie. Her assistant picked up on it. “Mrs. Smith, don’t you want to go on a honeymoon?” she asked one day. “One of my friends just got married, and she’s been obsessively researching destinations. “She even said a marriage without a honeymoon is already half a failure.” Vera froze mid-page, suddenly losing interest in the documents she had been reviewing. Her assistant hesitated, then offered a suggestion. “Why don’t you go visit Dr. Smith at work?“You seem… distracted. Maybe seeing him will help.” Vera snapped out of her daze, suddenly aware of how preoccupied she had been lately. It was embarrassing to admit, but she had been zoning out far too often—especially after coming hom

    Whenever they did this in the past, Caleb always maintained some restraint. But tonight—he didn’t hold back at all. He took her from the bedroom to the bathroom, then back to the bed, his searing kisses trailing every inch of her skin. The next morning, even as she woke up, Vera could still feel the lingering traces of last night’s intoxicating pleasure. As expected, she ended up taking the day off. It wasn’t until two days later that she finally returned to work. *Everyone at the company had already prepared for this. The moment Vera walked into the office, she was greeted with knowing smiles and teasing remarks. “Congratulations, Mrs. Smith!” “Newlywed bliss, huh?” “Three whole days off? Someone had a good time.” It didn’t take a genius to figure out what she had been up to. Obviously, her married life was going exceptionally well—so well that she had completely abandoned work for it. Under the weight of their mischievous stares, Vera barely k

    Yelena still hadn’t accepted Hunter, but he wasn’t giving up either and was relentlessly closing in on her. Knowing Yelena’s soft heart, Vera figured it was only a matter of time before she gave in. She let out a sigh. Her friend’s love life wasn’t something she could interfere with. Besides, Caleb had already given her a little inside scoop. “She came to the hospital for a follow-up a few days ago,” he had mentioned casually. “Hunter was the one who brought her.” Vera had clicked her tongue at the news. Yelena always seemed quiet and reserved, but apparently, she was full of surprises.*Time flew by in the blink of an eye.By mid-month, Caleb had rented out an entire vineyard and spent several days transforming it into the perfect wedding venue.When the day arrived, the celebration took place right there.The vineyard was sprawling and elegant, every bit as grand as any luxury hotel—if not better. Even the wine cellar remained untouched, stocked with years-

    “Did you plan this from the start?” Vera narrowed her eyes, feeling like she had just walked into a carefully laid trap. “Mm.” Caleb smiled, then leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to her lips. Because yes—he had always been planning this. The biggest change in Vera’s life after the island proposal was the ring now sitting on her finger. It wasn’t just any ring. It was custom-made, something Caleb had specially ordered. She only found out by accident when she glanced at his phone one day and saw the purchase record. It had been ordered two months ago. Vera did the math and was stunned. He had been preparing for this long before she even started getting impatient. Her heart swelled with emotion. And as soon as Caleb’s parents heard that their son had finally proposed, they wasted no time pushing them to get the marriage license. *One day, Vera overheard Caleb’s mother lecturing him. “Your dad and I weren’t expecting much from you.
