The warm sun cast a golden hue over the sandy beach as waves gently lapped at the shore. Charles and Riley lay on their sun lounges next to each other. Their faces tilted toward the sky, basking in the sun’s embrace.

“I love the beach,” Riley and Charles said at the same time, which caused them to laugh.

“Great minds think alike,” Charles remarked, and Riley nodded in agreement.

“Your mother also loved the beach,” Charles commented.

“I don’t know why. I just love the beach,” Riley said with a smile. “And Adrian loves the beach too.”

In front of them, Adrian was swimming farther out into the water while Abner emerged from the waves. Anthony asked from a distance, “Does he always swim this much, despite his leg condition?”

“Yeah. Well. Swimming was always his passion,” Abner replied.

Riley observed Abner’s reluctant answer. That was one thing they had yet to tell Anthony, but she knew Adrian would soon share the good news with his father.

Over the past two days, they had thoroughly

    While Adrian and Riley were building relationships with their fathers, back in Halliport, a scheme was brewing. From a prestigious restaurant, Leni Eros entered a private room where Tonet and Fredrick waited for her. "Good evening, Leni. I am so glad you accepted our invitation," Tonet said while standing up. Fredrick rushed to pull a chair out for Leni and said, "Please take a seat."Leni would not have accepted their dinner request if not for the fact that her threat had not affected Adrian. She expected Adrian to come running back to her, begging for her forgiveness, but instead, he was nowhere to be seen.Now, she was no longer sure if she wanted Adrian back. However, she was certain that she wanted him to pay! She wanted Adrian to regret choosing Riley over her. She wanted Adrian to beg for her forgiveness, and maybe she would consider giving him a chance to be part of the Eros family. Settling down, Leni said, "So what's the plan here?""I suggest a cooperation between you, m

    "Woah! What is this about?" Riley asked the second Adrian carried her in princess style into their resort bedroom. "To celebrate the unexpected changes in our lives," Adrian concluded. He smiled at Riley and said, "I think luck has been on my side since I married you, Honey. I never truly thought that my father would side with me. I thought I had lost him forever."Riley chuckled. She wrapped her arms tighter around Adrian's neck and claimed, "Are you kidding me? You have changed my life in ways I never thought possible."She pondered briefly before saying, "When you proposed marriage, I did not know what to expect." Adrian had laid her in bed. She continued, sitting down, "At first, I was worried about getting into a loveless marriage." When her husband's lips twitched at her last statement, she quickly added, "But I ended up falling in love and meeting my soulmate.""Then, you gave me back my hopes and my dreams. You helped my mom - Aunt Renee, get better," Riley said, still not us

    Riley could see that both Charles and Anthony were star-struck. They weren’t with a famous actor, but Kyle Wright, one of the wealthiest businessmen in the country.Instead of leaving early for the airport, Abner, Anthony, Riley, Adrian, and Charles found themselves having coffee with Kyle at the bar. Apparently, Kyle had won the bid for the resort! He had stayed three more days to formalize the sale contract. “So, technically, you are now staying at my property,” Kyle proudly revealed as he crossed his legs. “But in two years, this will become a Diamond Resort.”Now and then, Anthony stared at Kyle in awe. Abner got along just fine with Kyle and surprisingly knew how to please the man. “I heard so many good things about the CEO of the Wright Diamond Corporation. I must say, you look more handsome in person, Mr. Wright,” Abner said with a big smile. “Thank you, Mr. King,” Kyle replied nonchalantly. “When the media takes pictures of me, I often frown. I give a stone face in person, s

    "Kyle just told me, and oh, my god, I'm just in shock! I called as soon as I heard, hoping your jet had not yet taken off!" Gaby, Kyle's wife, said on a video call with Riley. "I don't know how to start. I'm sorry, but I am happy for you at the same time. I'm sorry for all the things that you went through -"In the video call, Gaby rested her hand on her chest, saying, "I would know. I went through hardships too, but yours -" She gasped, holding back the tears in her eyes. "It's nothing compared to what you have been through."Riley sucked in a deep breath. She said, "If I focus on the pain, I might just drown in sorrow, so my dad and I agreed to work on a better future for us as a family.""That's true," Gabrielle said. "I'm glad you met your father and cleared up all the misunderstandings. It's not too late, Riley.""No, it isn't," Riley agreed. "We can still make up for lost time.""Atta, girl!" Gabrielle complimented. "That's the spirit.""Hi! Hi, Uncle!" Suddenly, little Kenneth

    Charles stayed with Riley and Adrian in their villa for two days. He worked remotely while ignoring all of Leni and Ramona's calls. Charles discovered many details about Renee and Raelyn's suffering in Calvin's hand, further fueling his anger toward his older brother. At the same time, he spent more time with Riley. He wanted to stay longer, but not only did work await him, Charles knew he needed to find more evidence that connected Ramona to Calvin. "I'll miss you, Dad," Riley said while embracing Charles tightly. Charles pecked Riley's forehead and said, "I'll miss you more, my daughter." He turned to Adrian and shook his hand. He said, "Just a few more days, Adrian, and you'll be out in that chair."Adrian smiled and answered, "I love my wheelchair. I'm not in any hurry, Dad.""Sir?" Ben, the bodyguard, opened the rented car door for Charles, and he walked in. "I'll be in touch. Take care, both of you."Riley did not want to part with her father, but she knew they had to do what

    "No one is kicking Adrian out!" The loud voice came from none other than the chairman, Anthony King. "I am tired of this!"He gestured towards Leni and questioned, "Who do you think you are? You may be Leni Eros, but you don't have a place in the King's Enterprises! You are no better than me and my son!""In fact!" Anthony declared, making eye contact with everyone. "We are all more accomplished than Leni! Many of us are business or marketing graduates who tackle complex challenges, while this woman is just a spoiled brat who does modeling!""How dare you?" Leni objected, but Anthony cut her off. "No! How dare you?" Anthony shot back at Leni furiously. "What do you know of what we need?" Anthony contested. "A promise of a fifty-billion-dollar deal that doesn't even have a contract?""Let's say this offer is true. Sure, a big project can provide a significant short-term boost in revenue, but it’s the CEO’s responsibility to ensure that the company continues to thrive after the project

    A hush fell over the room as the confidence of the opposing board members began to diminish. Tonet's face especially turned ghostly white. "No," Fredrick said under his breath. "This can't be true.""ACE Construction who?" Leni asked.Because everyone was shocked, no one responded to Leni. Nolan and Oliver were the first to inspect the contract. "It's notarized," Nolan muttered. Another board member also remarked, "And it has supporting documents from the Megaworld Entertainment Plaza project. There is an approval for the shared work.""Yes, that's right," Adrian confirmed. He shifted to Engineer Philips and said, "Mr. Philips will explain further.""Megaworld Plaza agreed for the project to be shared with the King's Enterprises, provided that we continue to be the primary firm overlooking the construction progress and reports," Engineer Philips said before gazing at Adrian. "Our CEO, Mr. King, and I had already agreed on the appropriate task allocation to balance the project cost."

    "Anthony, can't you see?" Tonet wept as she pointed at Adrian, implying, "He is influencing you to make these decisions. You are not thinking straight -""As a matter of fact, I have never seen more clearly since I married you, Tonet," Anthony declared. "How could you bring Leni here when you knew I was against her offer? You were there when she requested to marry Adrian, and I denied it!""The offer that Fredrick got from Leni is not because he worked hard for it; it was mere retribution from Leni because Adrian did not want to marry her!" Anthony pointed out. "And the fact that you sided with her scheme tells me more about you - who you really are!""But - but," Tonet stuttered. "Does it matter? What matters is we are going to get the support of the Eros -""So you think kicking Adrian out will improve the company?" Anthony barked at Tonet.

    “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
