"Good morning," Adrian greeted Riley the second she woke up on a Sunday. He was smiling at her, and his eyes were sparkling.

"Good morning," she said back.

"Are my wife and baby hungry?" Adrian asked.

Riley pouted before caressing her stomach. She answered, "I think we are."

Adrian rolled off the bed and said, "Let me cook breakfast."

"Wait," Riley called. "Someone might see you walking."

Adrian chuckled. He responded, "I gave Max, Aunt Linda, and Rose a day off. Aunt Linda could also use some time to visit her relatives. She will be gone for a few days. Only the guards have reported for work but are at the gates."

He winked and added, "Grandpa will be on a firm watch."

When they reached the kitchen, Adrian moved seamlessly across the cooking space, taking out bread, eggs, vegetables, and condiments. But because Riley couldn't stand watching her husband do all the work, she offered to work on the smoothie, slicing her favorite fruits.

Using her phone, Riley played the song "Good Li

    On a Monday evening, Adrian and Riley rested early. They had already fallen asleep when Adrian's phone suddenly rang. Adrian took the call because it was from Engineer Philips. Adrian asked, "Hello? What seems to be the matter?""Mr. King? Mr. Wright of Braeton City is having cold feet," Engineer Philips revealed. "Cold feet? How?" Adrian got up from the bed, immediately massaging his temples."We don't know, Sir. He apologized and said he is considering another company to work with," Engineer Philips answered. "No. No." Adrian instructed, "Since you are already in Braeton City, meet him first thing in the morning. He can't go wrong with us. Instead of Wednesday, I'll fly out to see him tomorrow. I'll have Clint charter a flight for me.""Tell him that if he still feels we are not the best firm for the construction after our meeting, then I will accept his decision," Adrian expressed. "Got it, Sir," Engineer Philips agreed. Adrian called Clint to arrange his flight. When he was do

    "How is it that you can bring down the construction cost this much? Are you going cheap on materials, Mr. King?" Kyle asked while scrutinizing the project cost proposal. "Never! I recently acquired a metal production business and partnered with a lumber and cement company. Technically, I am getting many of the materials directly from suppliers," Adrian explained. "This is what mainly brings down the cost.""As for workers, we usually create temporary housing within the site. It initially comes out as a big investment, but long-term wise; we save on transportation, hotel expenses, and stolen construction materials," Adrian explained. "Stolen construction materials?" Kyle asked, crossing his arms against his chest. "Even with security guards present, thieves get in and steal construction materials. If construction workers are housed on-site, we have more eyes around," Adrian explained. "Lastly, aside from construction equipment, I invest in innovative project management. I hire the be

    The van's door was left open, and Riley slumped into the seat. Her jaw dropped when she saw the workers she had encountered daily at the mall transform into fighters!"What the -" Riley could not wrap her head around it.The sports apparel sales personnel, the same young man who smiled at Riley every day when she would pass by the sports boutique, had grabbed one of the abductors' arms and thrust him up in the air, then onto the ground. Next, he landed a series of punches at the abductor!Mr. Wesson, the mall administrator, the same man who accepted Adley's lease contract, had leaped in the air and threw himself at two of the kidnappers, taking them down to the ground. Then, he rolled his body forward and gracefully stood on his two feet. He suddenly delivered a powerful kick at another kidnapper with tattoos. Then, there was the cleaning guy at the mall. This same guy who mopped the floors daily and always told Riley to watch her steps had joined in the fight. He had flipped his body

    "Yes, Kyle. Riley is safe. Thank goodness her bodyguards followed her around," Adrian said on the phone. "Thank you for helping clear a schedule at Braeton Airport."In the evening, Adrian got a call from Kyle Wright. He and Gabrielle were very concerned about Riley. Adrian had met up with little Kenneth and had lunch with the Wrigths when Adrian got the call from Clint's men about Riley's attempted kidnapping. Kyle did everything he could to help Clint get a private transfer to Halliport. "That's Good to know," Kyle responded on the phone. By the way, I reviewed the contract again, and it's strange how I found no flaw. So, I'm taking my chances with you, Mr. King. I'm choosing your company for our next Diamond Hotel construction."It was a problematic day, but Adrian could not help but smile after hearing the news. He answered, "Kyle, thank you for your trust. I promise you that you won't regret it."After talking to Kyle, Adrian stayed beside Riley on the bed. She had fallen aslee

    Despite being restrained, the kidnappers were laughing at Adrian. The tattoed man said, "What can a disabled guy do? Haha!"Adrian was as calm as a still lake. As he sat in his wheelchair, he crossed his legs. Clint and Riley were behind him, waiting for the show to begin. When he raised his hand, Max quickly handed Adrian the folders. Adrian flipped through them and started with one, "Pablo Garcia. Drug trafficking and robbery."Adrian snapped his fingers, and Clint's men and Riley's security team brought coffins before them. They took turns getting the coffins in, but after half an hour, all four were settled before the kidnappers. Three coffins were made of glass, but one was a regular wooden coffin. "What is that?" Pablo, the first man, asked. "Your resting place until you speak," Adrian said. Pablo laughed. He snorted as he asked, "So you are going to scare me with a glass coffin? Haha!"Joey and Chandler were the ones who settled Pablo in the first coffin. Of course, Pablo re

    'Ramona Myers,' Adrian mused in the car, his hand massaging his temples as he stared into the road. He dreaded this day would come, but he wasn't expecting it to be this fast! What was he going to do now? He still had to take care of Fredrick and Tonet!Since there was a threat to Riley's life, he must take care of Ramona first. Adrian was still in deep thought when suddenly, Riley gripped his hand. She asked, "Adrian? Who is Ramona?"He turned to her with a worried expression. Holding her hand tighter, he answered, "Riley, I think we cannot elude this any further. Ramona, she - she is related to your father."When Adrian said that, Riley's face turned white. Her mouth fell open before she slammed back in her seat. She repeated, "Related to my father?""I know you said you don't want to know your father and be part of his life, but I think we can't help it," Adrian said. "So you are saying that my life is in danger because of my father?" Riley asked Adrian, "Why would I want to know

    Unfortunately, Riley and Adrian did not have the time to discuss what happened between the Eros family because they had already arrived at the villa. They heard Renee in a heated discussion with Abner when they entered the house. "I don't understand. Why would you accuse Adrian of using Riley? They love each other," Abner said. "I don't have to explain myself to you, Abner. I want my daughter out of this house!" Renee exclaimed. It did not take them long to notice Riley and Adrian's presence. Already walking with a crane, Renee marched towards Riley and said, "We need to leave this house. You need to leave Adrian.""Mom, I'm not understanding you," Riley said. "I told you over the phone," Renee said through clenched jaws. "Adrian was not fully honest with you about his intentions.""If this is about my father, Adrian has always been honest with me about it," Riley said, pulling her hand away. "Riley, can't you see?

    Riley was in deep thought. She was biting her nails at this point. She thought about all the things Renee had told her. Then she shared, "Mom said that she almost died. She probably changed her name because of the threat.""I had tried to look into it, Riley. I couldn't find any information on your mom years before you were born. And as far as I know, Raelyn's last name was a Becket," Adrian revealed. Yet again, Riley fell silent. As she thought about the past, Abner inquired next, "But Ramona only came into the picture years later, right, Adrian?""Yes, Charles discovered that his daughter was rescued during that accident. He searched for his daughter, and Ramona came forward and introduced Leni as his daughter. Technically, she is a total stranger to Charles, only that she raised Leni for ten years," Adrian revealed. "But as far as I know, they went through the process, including DNA testing," Abner said while caressing his chin. "They were able to prove that Leni is Charles' daugh

    “Happy Birthday, Grandpa. I love you and miss you,” Freya said while putting a flower on Abner’s grave. Charlie followed, putting her teddy bear down. She said, “Grandpa, you can have Mr. Bear. So you won’t miss us too much.”Jasper followed, leaving a card that he had drawn for Abner. He asked, “Hey, Grandpa. Is it always a buffet in heaven?”The adults behind the kids laughed. Jasper turned to his parents, objecting, “Grandpa told me there’s a buffet in heaven!”“Dad did say that a lot,” Anthony remarked, chuckling. More than a year had gone by since Abner’s passing, and they all visited him in his mausoleum, the same one that housed his departed wife, Marilyn King. Charles and Realyn were also present, bringing along their son. Carson had made a Lego mansion for Abner. He placed it above his tomb and said, “Grandpa, I made a house for you. Hope you like it.”Kian moved forward next. He pouted as he said, “Great-grandpa Abner, since you left, the house has been a bit boring. Daddy

    “Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday, Dear Freya. Happy birthday to you!” On Freya’s 6th birthday, everyone gathered again. The celebration was held at the very first Diamond Hotel in Halliport. Freya stood on the stage with her parents and siblings. She wore a crown over her head and a ballroom gown fit for a princess. She had a bright smile before she blew the candles on her cake. The audience erupted into applause, after which the party host asked, “What was your wish, Princess Freya?”“That I will grow strong and healthy so I can be a businesswoman someday!” Freya declared, adding to everyone’s amusement. Praises echoed in the ballroom. Carrying both his sons, Adrian struggled to clap his hands, but Jasper and Kian did it for him. “Yay! My turn to blow!” Charlie said. She was beaming while being held by Riley. “No, me!” Jasper screamed. “No, me!” Kian said. The guests laughed out loud at how Riley and Adrian’s children wanted to blow out the candles

    Over a year passed. “Five minutes more, and we are done,” Adrian said as he continued to run on the treadmill. “Honey, I can’t believe I’m back to running for two straight hours again,” Riley said while catching her breath. Her body was sweating profusely, her athletic wear soaked altogether.” It was the same for her husband. Adrian’s skin was glowing in his sweat, and with him running half-naked, he looked mighty fine. “Rrr. Somebody looks hot,” Riley remarked while checking out her husband. “We should have sex after shower.”“We should,” Adrian said while chuckling. “The last time we tried to make love, Freya walked in on us.”“We should learn to lock the door,” Riley said, but locking the doors was easier said than done when Freya always demanded their time and attention whenever they were home. Since delivering the Triplets, Riley had always asked Adrian to be her exercise buddy. Although her postpartum belly has still not fully recovered, she is getting there. The best part i

    “What? Why can’t we see Riley before the delivery?” Renee asked, furious. “Why is she delivering early?”“It’s a delicate pregnancy, Aunt, and she is going into operation right now. Don’t worry. I will take care of Riley,” Zia said. Zia knew that Riley had hidden the truth about her pregnancy. During her second trimester, Riley had attempted to wear baggy clothes to conceal her growing belly. Zia also knew Riley purposely evaded seeing her parents and aunt personally in the recent months.Only Zia, Clint, Abner, Adrian, and Riley knew the truth. Zia even colluded with Riley, giving her a fake ultrasound report.Now, Riley was already 34 weeks pregnant. It was too early for her to give birth, but it had to be done. Going further into the pregnancy was too dangerous. “What’s her condition? Is it polyhydramnios?” Renee asked. This was one of Renee’s suspicions, but Zia always found a way to avoid the topic. “It’s one of those rare pregnancies, Aunt - Oh! I hear Riley crying. I better g

    Time passed again, and it was finally time for Zia to give birth to her twins. Zia had no complications during her pregnancy. Thus, she decided to give birth vaginally. She was prepared for the worst. Zia had delivered countless babies and witnessed different kinds of mothers, including those who screamed, cried, prayed, counted numbers, and more. So, Zia was quiet despite the labor pains. However, it was not the same for her husband, Clint.Zia wanted to avoid an epidural if possible, saving it as a last resort. During labor, she hummed and took deep breaths. They were in their birthing suite, with Clint holding Zia’s hand. Between the two of them, it looked like Clint was about to give birth. He was sweating and already jittery. He said, “Zia, you are so strong. I love you so much.”Soon, it was time for Zia to push. She gave it her all. Clint and her doctor helped her through it. However, after several attempts, the first baby was still not coming out! Zia’s doctor decided to perf

    “Honey? What are you doing here?” Adrian asked, surprised to see Riley stepping onto the private jet. He was scheduled for a trip to check on the project’s progress in Hawaii, so her unexpected arrival caught him off guard.“I’m coming with you!” Riley declared. “It’s been a while since I accompanied you on business trips. Why not mix business with pleasure? And don’t worry, Freya is staying with Aunt, and so is Grandpa. I figured it was about time we had more alone time together.”She beamed and settled on the seat next to Adrian. She pressed her lips into his ear and pointed out, “You do realize that I am about to ovulate. This is the perfect time to have lots of sex!”“Honey,” Adrian said. “I know about that. I was coming back tomorrow morning.”“Yes, but why not have lots of sex in paradise?” Riley pointed out. “Maybe we need a little adventure.”She scanned the private jet, and after finding Adrian’s new male assistant, she whispered, “We can have, you know, sex on the beach, on t

    “Riley, Aunt Renee needs us,” Adrian revealed in the middle of the night. Riley was fast asleep when Adrian awoke her. She got up immediately, and a worried expression appeared on her face. She asked, “What happened to Aunt?”“Her blood pressure went up, so the doctor decided to deliver the baby prematurely,” Adrian said while getting off the bed. “Dad just called. He is in a panic.”Riley frowned. Because Zia was very pregnant and her stomach was growing bigger, she had to hold off from delivering babies, but she was still on top of her aunt’s condition. She had also appointed the second-best doctor to attend to Renee. “I’ll call Zia,” Riley said while leaving the bed. Time had passed again. Her aunt’s pregnancy was already thirty-four weeks, not yet full term. Naturally, Riley was worried. She had heard Gaby’s story about their struggle with Kenneth and the triplet’s birth, so she was afraid her aunt would go through the same situation. “Zia? Thank you for picking up,” Riley said

This was Clint and Zia’s wedding celebration. They did not wait long and wed while Zia was still ten weeks pregnant. Clint and Zia wanted to make things formal before Zia’s belly grew too big. Clint glided down the center aisle of the ballroom with casual, effortless confidence. His steps were smooth and rhythmic, exuding a cool, controlled vibe as he moved to the beat. He and his crew of groomsmen dancers execute sharp, synchronized moves that give the choreography a sense of unity and camaraderie.With every slick move, their smiles were evident. They occasionally winked at the crowd, giving off that suave look. The wedding was held at the Marriot Hotel, and over five hundred guests were invited. Most guests were Clint
