“I had minor injuries from the accident, but I had to run. Whoever was inside that car that came after us could wake up from unconsciousness, or maybe there were more of Calvin’s people lurking around,” Renee said before she cried another bucket of tears. “It was so hard for me to do - to leave my sister there, but I was afraid you’d be next, Riley.”

Renee was sobbing so intensely that Riley felt compelled to comfort her. Riley did not say anything but simply embraced Renee. She could deeply feel her pain. It was as if Riley was equally taken back in time, watching her real mother die in such a tragic way.

Riley and Renee held each other in a long embrace. Meanwhile, across from them, Adrian’s body tensed with anger. Riley could sense that plans were already forming in his head. The look in Adrian’s eyes, focused beyond them, revealed his intent on seeking vengeance.

After some time, Renee pulled away and resumed her tale. She said, “I made it back to the apartment that we rented. I p

    "Adrian, you said that he visits my mother's grave daily, right? What if he comes here today? We could wait for him," Riley suggested. Adrian sucked in a deep breath. He revealed, "The caretaker said Charles had visited at six am. So he won't be coming later. We are still having trouble getting Charles' schedule, but eventually, I will find out the best way to meet him.""But we could come here again tomorrow," Riley proposed. "It's a weekend, Adrian. If we stay in Dowel City overnight, we can come here earlier.""We can try it, yes," Adrian confirmed. "If that is what you wish, Riley."Adrian turned to Renee and asked, "Before anything else, I want to clarify something. In your story, it seemed like Calvin was interested in Raelyn."Renee nodded. She stared at Raelyn's portrait and answered, "I thought so too. Later, Raelyn also expressed the same suspicion, but at first, we never considered it because he kept saying that my sister was not fit to join their family.""From what I know

    Early the next day, the couple, Renee, Clint, and Riley's security team, made it to the cemetery before it opened. They had brought flowers for Raelyn. Riley and Renee cleaned up the mausoleum before the long wait began. In between, they talked about Raelyn, a story that Riley was eager to hear. They had lunch and snacks at the mausoleum. Time was ticking, and the sun had already set, yet Charles was nowhere to be seen. Adrian, who had brought work to the cemetery, asked Clint to check with his contacts. Clint returned to him and reported, "Sir, the security guard at their neighborhood said he had not seen Mr. Eros leave the house today. He isn't sure about the prior day since the guard on duty gave no information. Even Mr. Eros' secretary doesn't want to answer my calls. Engineer Philips also tried to make a call, expressing his interest in sending a proposal. Still, the secretary only asked him to send an email.""Charles' secretary is very stern," Adrian remarked. "Indeed, Sir. S

    "Leni, I have something to tell you!" Mandy, Leni's friend, called.It was late in the evening. Leni had just finished a photoshoot at Channel Eight. She said goodbye to the photographers and approached her friend, asking, "What is it, Mandy?""I saw your ex-fiance earlier at Dowel Hotel Plus," Mandy said while walking with Leni to her changing room. "Adrian?" Leni questioned. "Yes," Mandy confirmed. "He was with the same woman we saw at the Marriot Hotel in Halliport. I overheard their conversation when they walked past me in the lobby. Adrian did not notice me since I was seated on the couch when he walked in.""So? Why would I care?" Leni said as they entered her dressing room."Didn't you say that Adrian couldn't get it up?" Mandy pointed out. "Yes! We never had sex!" Leni revealed. "There was a time, you know, that I considered just using his body because while he may be disabled, let's face it, he is hot, but he fucking couldn't get it up.""He said he felt nothing when I took

    After meeting eyes with Adrian, Leni was sure he had evaded her. Since she knew which floor they were staying on, she rushed to the lift and arrived at the sixth floor before them. That was how they arrived at the conversation of how she saw Adrian getting up from his wheelchair. "So, earlier, Adrian, I saw you get up and carry her. Are you better now?" Leni asked firmly. "Well, answer me!""Answer me first, Leni." Adrian coldly asked, "How did you get here so fast?"'Oops! I guess I am busted,' Leni mused. Of course, she did not expect anything less from Adrian King. She laughed and replied, "Okay, okay. I admit it!"She flipped her strawberry blonde hair and revealed, "I asked the front desk which room you are staying at. So, I already knew where to go. So, what?"They were all still standing there by the hallway, having a glaring contest while Adrian and Leni had a heated exchange. Leni directed her gaze to Adrian's wife, whose name she had already forgotten. She asked, "Congratul

    "No! No! It's not like that at all!" Ramona's heart galloped as she tried to come up with an excuse. "Do you remember that there were still funds that Calvin had managed to keep to himself? He had not returned all the money to your father.""So, I went to see him and begged him to tell me where the money went. I - I was hoping that by doing that, I could win Charles' favor!" Ramona said. Leni looked like she doubted Ramona's reply, but eventually, she frowned and inquired, "Did he tell you, though?"With a sigh, Ramona answered, "No. He said he no longer has the money, but we all know that's not true.""Yeah," Leni acknowledged. "Dad did say they lost a lot of money back then.""But don't go see Calvin again, Mom! It's dangerous. He is dangerous!" Leni scolded. "Honestly, I wish he would just stay in prison."Ramona wrinkled her nose and said, "Oh, but the life sentence in our state is only twenty-five years.""Well, either way, stop seeing him!" Leni warned, "If Dad finds out, he wil

    ### FLASHBACK CONTINUATION ###"I was passing by that small town, going to Sever Port. I was the first one on the scene," Ramona said to the police. She knew she was being watched through the interrogation room's glass window. She teared up and said, "And that poor woman was dead.""In the backseat, the baby was crying, and I was looking around; I was afraid the car might explode," Ramona shared. "So I hurriedly took the baby from inside, and just as I got out, a man from the other car approached. He was bleeding. He said that I should give him the baby."Ramona felt her chest as she claimed, "Something in me believed they were going to hurt the child! So I ran! I ran as fast as I could. I got in my car and drove away. That man from the car tried to chase after me, but he was wounded, so I managed to escape.""No one saw you?" The police asked. "Wasn't it more crowded in the crash area?""We were in the middle of an intersection, yes, but the people in that small town did not step outs

    "You are overthinking it," Riley said before resuming her sketches. Her husband, Adrian, was in deep thought, analyzing Leni's potential moves. Riley showed Adrian her drawings and asked, "What do you think?"When Adrian saw the drawings, he lightened up and chuckled. "Seriously, gold brooch pins, earrings, and anklets?""Uhuh," Riley said with a beaming smile. "We can add diamonds to the brooch itself.""What if our baby is a boy?" Adrian asked. It was Riley's turn to chuckle. She answered, "Well, when we have a baby girl, these baby collections will be launched."The couple had earlier taken the long journey from Dowel to King's Enterprises. They needed to have work done, so Max took Renee directly to the villa to rest. After last night's incident, Adrian concluded that Riley was not going anywhere without him. She was stuck to him like a magnet to steel, and she didn't mind. "I was thinking, maybe it's time for you to get rid of the wheelchair. The truth is out now," Riley remar

    Based on Adrian's relationship with Anthony, he was unsure how his father would respond. He hoped Anthony had changed, especially after he gave him his mother's engagement ring. Still, Adrian also knew how important the company was to Anthony. Adrian had helped improve the construction side of the business in baby steps, but getting that contract with the Eros family would undoubtedly be a giant leap. Anthony stared at Adrian before he returned his attention to Leni. Beside him, Tonet was trying her best to influence him. "I -" Anthony's face tightened. He said, "Leni, I have chosen the company over my son for many years. It had become my heart and soul, but -"He gulped and said, "In the process, I failed as a father.""So, I decided to side with Adrian this time. He is already happy with Riley, and they are expecting a child. I will not help you ruin what they have," Anthony added. "I won't."Adrian was shocked. He couldn't believe his ears! He was momentarily rendered speechless,

    “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

    ~ “Tonight I just want to take you higher Throw your hands up in the sky Let’s set this party off right” ~ Previously hidden amongst his groomsmen, Clint emerged from his flock of male friends and cousins to sing and dance to the tune of 24k Magic by Bruno Mars. 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
