Cassandra tried to say something but didn't at last and waited for Ryan to react instead. Ryan saw the ice cream, excited to no end, and looked at the person offering all these to him.His reaction got changed to a confused one as he stared at Cannon for a few moments.Cannon spoke up, tears rolling down as his vision cleared, "Which one is your favorite?"Ryan pointed at the chocolate one after looking at the ice cream scoops and examining the color."Take it." Cannon uttered softly as he pointed at that. Ryan hesitated for a few moments but then took it.Like Cannon's face reminded Ryan of something, he asked him with excitement flashing his face, "Is it ready now?"Cannon gave him a confused look and uttered, "What, baby?" much to Ryan's disappointment. He uttered sadly, "My room!"Cannon was perplexed at the information that his son knew his plan, "How did you get to know?"Cassandra heard them but remained silent. Looking at Ryan's sad face, he pleaded, forgetting his inquiry for

Elaine wasn't back yet when Cassandra got back home with Ryan. She was busy in her work in office. It was late in the evening when she got back. She was pleasantly listening to Ryan's ranting about his time at the park. Cassandra tried to make up a story when she heard Ryan talking to Elaine about his new good friend and Elaine gave her a questioning look. But by the end of Ryan's ranting, Elaine didn’t pay much attention to that new friend of his, seeing her so happy son. As she was tired working all day, keeping eyes glued to the laptop screen to plan the marketing strategy, she called it a day earlier than usual. Ryan slept peacefully beside her but Elaine got awaken up at some point of the night dreaming about her elevator time with Cannon. His phone calls, texts and words from earlier kept distracting her that's the reason she took time to complete her work and thus she came back home late today. She couldn’t allow her to get into his words. Sincere or not, Cannon was late f

The Next day In the morning after getting Ryan to freshen up, Elaine took him to the dining table to get him breakfast. Cassandra joined them there after a few minutes. Elaine again tried to remind Cassandra but she cut her off, "It won't happen again." Nodding at her and she turned to Ryan who was still taking his cereal while ranting about something. Elaine spoke up softly as she went near him, "Ryan, Mom is leaving, baby. I will try to come back early. Now, don't stress out Cassie. Be good. okay?" Ryan looked at her and smiled sweetly, "I am a good boy." "Of course, you are. You are my son." Elaine said as she kissed his cheek, "Bye, baby." As she made her way out, Ryan waved at her, "Bye bye, Mom." Smilingly, she waved back and nodded at Cassandra as she got out of the house. Completing Cannon's project as early as possible was her only goal now. But just after she settled down and barely opened her laptop to start her work, Rivan reached there. "Elaine, Sir is calling yo
Chasing My Replaced Bride Chapter 20
Elaine moved her gaze to Cannon only to find him staring at her already. He looked calm. Elaine lowly whispered to him, "You can still stop all this if you promise that you won't bother me anymore.""No." Cannon shook his head in negative, "I told you I am not going anywhere leaving you two.""Are you crazy? I can send you behind bars in a few minutes.""If that's what you wish, do it. But I am not leaving." Cannon replied, his voice solemn."Excuse me. Is there any problem here?" The cop asked noticing the crowd.The man who called the cop spoke up, "Yes, sir. This man was harrasing this young lady."The cop narrowed his eyes and took an overall glance at Cannon and Elaine before speaking up, "Is this true?"Infuriated, Elaine wanted to show Cannon that she was not going to fall for his fake acting anymore. And she wasn't going to be easy on him after trying to get Ryan in his drama."Yes, Sir." She answered the cop. "This guy is stalking me and my son for several days." She pointed a

The doorbell again rang. Cassandra tried to get up as she spoke, "Should I answer it?""No. I am going." Elaine spoke and made her way to the door with the intention to make Cannon leave from the gate itself.She opened the door, "Why don’t you just.." but stopped mid-sentence when the person at the door came to her sight. Both of them stay paused for a moment."Mom, look. They killed the monster." Ryan jumped in his place drawing their attention to him.Elaine glanced back at her after a moment and said, "Hina. You?" sounding pleasantly surprised. Hina glared at her in response. She walked past her to face Ryan and stood at a few steps' distance from him. Ryan gave her a look of curiosity written on his face.Elaine walked to her and said to Ryan, "Baby, say hello to my friend." earning another glare from Hina. But she didn’t bother that. She was busy mentally praying for Ryan to behave well with Hina. Happening of otherwise was the last thing, she wanted to happen now.Ryan stared a

Elaine spoke up breaking the silence after few moments, "How is your Mother, Hina?""She died two years back." Hina replied sadly."I am sorry. I didn’t know."Hina was enraged at once, "If you have cared, you would have tried to contact me, Elaine. So don’t bother about me. You weren't there when I needed my friend the most. I did nothing but sticking to you since I knew you but you cut me off so easily from your life like I mean nothing to you.""It’s not true, Hina. My life was always messed up and you had always been trying to clean it up for me. I just thought you also have your life and I.. I.." Elaine stuttered at last and tears started rolling down from her eyes, "I know what I did was wrong but it seemed the only right thing to me that moment. I am sorry."Ryan stood near Elaine, convinced that he was the reason behind his mother's tears, "Mom, I am sorry. I won't run." and got near Tom, "Tom, sit. Don’t run, okay? Mom is sad."As much as Hina wanted to ignore Elaine's nonsen

There was no way Cannon would be trapped in the little mess she created. He had enough power and resources to get free from this in no moment. Elaine thought as she waited for the call to be answered. "Hello?"A deep male voice got into her hearing and she spoke up slowly, "Hello, Sir. It's Elaine here.""Elaine, who?"She explained, "I met you two days ago and complained about a man who was stalking me and you gave me your card.""Oh, yeah. I remember. What's the problem? Is there anyone else bothering you?" hearing him, she immediately answered, "No. Sorry for disturbing you but I wanted to ask about the person I complained. He is released already, right?""No. He is still in lock-up. You don't need to worry about that."Hearing him, her eyes widened as Elaine whispered, "What!""Yes. No one came for him yet.""Which police station? Can you text me the address?" she stuttered."Okay." He cut off the line.She got paused in her seat, nothing going through her mind..She just didn't

As Elaine left, Sam walked near Cannon, "Let's go now." Cannon slid in his car only after seeing Elaine getting in a taxi. Leaning against his seat, he closed his eyes. Sam spoke up, "Cannon, let's leave from here. Maybe Elaine.." "No, Sam. I am not going anywhere. I will try till my last breath if it takes to get Elaine to believe me." Sam thought Cannon must have forgotten about his meeting with Hamlet in all this. Trying to get Elaine back to him was way far safe than the meeting. Though he wasn’t sure anymore after seeing Cannon like this but still, Hamlet had profound hatred for Cannon. Proving him wrong, Cannon spoke up, "The meeting with Hamlet, you won’t go with me. I will handle it alone." Sam stopped the car with a jerk, "No way you are going alone. Get that clear. And here, I was thinking you forgot about that." Smiling sadly to him, he again shifted to his earlier position, "No, Sam. I promised some people, gave them some hope. I can't go back on my words." Sam still

Two Years LaterThe rays of sun flickered through the curtains, warmth glided over her skin, drawing Elaine out of sleep land. She squinted her eyes to block the sun from directly hitting her irises. Grunting, she turned over, her hand searching for Cannon, keeping eyes still shut.Knitting her brows, she opened her eyes only to the other half of the bed to be empty.Confused as she sat up. Where did he go this early in the morning! Elaine thought for a moment only to remember Cannon was out of town for a meeting.Well, he would be back today. Elaine thought to herself as she pulled herself out of the warmth of the comforter. She took a glance at the time which was seven past thirty in the morning already.I slept this long! Groaning, she was about to rush to see if Ryan was awake but then she had to make her way to the washroom first as a sudden and intense urge to throw up rose up to her throat.Leaning over the toilet, she cleared her stomach of the remaining of the last night's di

Though Cannon planned just to drop Elaine and Ryan at home and leave for the office from there itself, Ryan asked him to lift him in his arms and took him to his nursery first. Smiling at him, Cannon did as he was asked but they stopped at the entrance as Ryan called aloud, "Uncle Aiden?"Following his gaze, Cannon and Elaine found Aiden sitting in the living room. Aiden smiled seeing Ryan as he stood up but his smile faded away when he caught the sight of Elaine staring at him.Ryan said to Cannon to settle him down and as soon as he was down, he ran to Aiden. Getting near, he spoke up, "You came to meet me?"Aiden nodded at him with a little bit of smile but his eyes were all teary at the words of Ryan. It was clear from his voice he was happy with him though Aiden couldn’t get why.He was never that fond of children that much but something in Ryan was compelling him to feel otherwise. Getting the similar gesture from Ryan wasn't something, he was expecting though. Ryan held his ha

Hina held it within until she couldn't anymore. She kept the fork down and spoke up, trying to look all normal, "I am done. Elaine, I should head back to the boutique now. You don't need to go back, go home from here."She took a glance at Sam who didn't seem to care anyway and was keeping himself busy with his food. Before Elaine could say something, Hina was already walking away.Ryan would have shouted if he wasn't busy with his ice cream.Cannon frowned, "What happened to her all of a sudden?"Elaine also seemed to be equally confused and turned to Sam. Before she could throw any question to Sam, his phone rang off. Taking the call, Sam answered in a calm voice, "Okay. We are on our way." and then turned to Cannon, "We have a meeting in an hour."Cannon nodded at him and they finished their lunch. Paying the bill as Cannon walked ahead with Ryan in his arms, Elaine turned to Sam, "Sam, what's going on?"Sam turned to her being confused but one look at her and Sam knew what she was

Keeping Elaine's head gently on the pillow, careful not to disturb her sleep, Cannon stared at her peacefully sleeping face for a while and then kissed her forehead.With a blissful smile, Cannon got down from the bed and pulled the comforter properly on her.After getting freshen up, he walked out of his room. His gaze caught the sight of Hina and Cassandra downstairs. Thinking Ryan was still sleeping, he made his way to the guest room to check on him.As he thought, Ryan was still sleeping, flat on his stomach, his one hand was tightly holding the plush toy. Just when he tried to tuck his leg under the blanket, Ryan stirred in his sleep and opened his eyes widely.He turned and when his eyes fell on Cannon, he smiled at him, "Dad?"Cannon smiled as well as he answered, "Good morning, baby."Ryan just smiled at him and the next thing, his eyes searched for his Mom all around the room but not finding her beside his bed like always, his smile faded away. He again turned to Cannon, "Mom

It was getting late at night but Elaine and Cannon were all awake holding each other quite tightly. Both of them knew if they really got to have some sleep, it would have been a peaceful sleep of their life like never before but sleep remained far away from their eyes no matter how tired they were after spending a hectic day. When Elaine felt there was no sleep tonight and Cannon wasn't going to say anything either, she thought of asking the question that terrified her that time. She wasn't sure if she would like his response, she had to clarify it. She uttered in a lower voice, "Cannon?" Cannon replied softly, "Hmm?" "Did yo..you really take me as Evana that night?" Elaine hesitantly voiced out as she got mentally preparing herself for his answer. It didn't take much time for Cannon to understand what Elaine was talking about but he was confused about how did Evana get into their conversation! Cannon uttered honestly, "I was drugged, Elaine. I still couldn't remember tha

The house was full of life with Ryan running around, laughing, breaking things and all. Too much for his excitement, Cannon made his nursery in one of the room there, like it was in his penthouse.He wanted to build it by himself like before but Elaine didn't let him to do it seeing his struggle to set the screw properly. In between, he took one hit of the hammer on his hand and the next thing, he was pulled away from all of it.Elaine said in a calm tone, "Get healed first. You can make him things later." leaving no place for him to say otherwise.Giving it a thought, Cannon along with Elaine took Ryan out and let him choose his crib, rocking chair, lights and so many of moon and star things as per his demands.Mary was there at Cannon's place for almost all the time. She would have started living there with them if it wasn't for Aiden.After planning the accident of Cannon years back, his all evil works got exposed to Ethan. And the next thing Ethan removed Aiden from his business a

Elaine was trying to talk to Damien but getting the reason behind it, he was trying to postpone their talk though he knew it was inevitable. He had no right to hold onto Elaine.She was never his after all and she made it very clear from the beginning of their story. She thought him as her friend only and that's where he stood with her. Still, he hoped to create a room for him in her heart.It took Elaine three days to complete the project work, she was handling now and as soon as the news of her leaving the job got out, some colleagues threw several questions at her.All she said was that she was leaving the town and going back to her family forever.

You, Ryan and me.""Bu

In the penthouse, all of them were gathered in the living room with their eyes at the entrance, restless as they waited for Cannon to make an appearance there.Ryan was asking about his dad every few minutes as he didn't find Cannon in bed like he was seeing since he had been here."Dad is out for some work, baby. He will be home soon, okay?"Though he nodded, still he kept doing the same thing for times going to everyone. When Cannon made it to be back home, it was just noon. Just a glance of him and then everyone got relaxed and let out a breath in relief. With a smile, Cannon reached them but before he could say something, Ryan hugged his leg as he squealed in joy, "Dad."Cannon bent down a little and took him in his arms, "Yes, baby."Everyone stared at them with a smile as Ryan kept saying something. Cannon figured out some words from his long rant and that much was enough for him to understand what was Ryan asking from him.He wanted to go to the park and Cannon happily agreed
Chasing My Replaced Bride Chapter 36
As soon as Cannon entered the study, Ethan spoke up, "What are you thinking of doing? Have you gone crazy?" "I am doing exactly what my duty is." Cannon stood firmly, "I am not going to go back on my words." Getting Cannon's determination in his words, Ethan offered, "Okay. Let me handle it then." "No need. I will do what I am supposed to do. You don't have to worry." Completing his say, Cannon was about to leave but Ethan stopped him, "Cannon, it's about that bas.. I mean crazy Kings. Anything can happen." Cannon gave him a side glance, "So? Are you worrying for me right now?" not believing his father was finally worrying for him now only after he had survived death for the second time. Really! "Cannon, please." Ethan tried to make him understand but he didn't give him the chance, "It's okay. I can manage it." and left the study and walked to his room, somewhat angry at Sam. Why did he have to talk to Ethan about all this? He could feel if Hunter was behind the bars now, it
