"Yes, Aunt, we are counting on you," Riley said on the phone. "I'll give the phone to Dad."

Riley's party awaited the helicopter to bring them back to Hinesville. They called Renee before leaving. Her aunt was already in Dowel and was the best person to reach Leni. If Raelyn were looking for her daughter and if she still assumed it was Leni, then they were banking on a mother's primary instinct: Raelyn would go straight to Leni.

"Renee, Ben has ordered the rest of my bodyguards to accompany you around Dowel. Based on my last surveillance on Leni, she was eyeing the Sterling Homes, Maplewood, or the Blue Horizon," Charles said on the phone. "My men know where to go first. Don't hesitate to use my name."

"Thank you," Charles said just before the helicopter was in their view.

They still brought Ramona with them, hoping she would be of help later on.

As they hurriedly got on the helicopter, Adrian shared, "I was just on the phone with Kyle. So, Jasper is under

So disappointed Leni is allowed to get that far. She is truly a disgusting lying selfish person who should be locked away. She’s a menace to society both she and her mom.

    11:00 AM Dowel City. "Okay, we are clear to leave. We are entering the airport now," Jasper reported. "I coordinated with the private plane company to adjust our departure time."Leni let out a heavy sigh. She said, "What a relief."Earlier, she had been very nervous about how Anthony had discovered her with Raelyn. She did the math and knew that Adrian and Charles would already know by then.There was no escaping the situation. Leni would just have to stand by her decision. She had decided that Raelyn was her chance of an easy life. So, of course, she grabbed the golden opportunity. Thinking of Charles, she said in her head, 'This is your fault, Dad. You did this to me.'Charles could not grasp that she had been accustomed to a life of luxury, and by taking it all away, he left her no choice but to use any means necessary to survive. She simply could not handle being thrust into poverty!"Don't worry, Leni. Everything will be fine soon. When we leave here, we will forget about Charl

    Raelyn stared at the woman who looked like a younger version of herself. The resemblance was so uncanny that it was difficult to ignore. “Mom, I’m your real daughter,” the young woman repeated. Her face was awash with tears, and her eyes reflected deep yearning.‘We have the same eyes,’ Raelyn thought. ‘We have the same hair and looks.’What were the chances of that?“I’m Riley,” the girl said, moving closer in her direction. “You named me Riley when I was a baby.”Leni was still behind Raelyn, pulling her arm. She said, “Mom! No, don’t listen to her -” Despite Leni’s claims, Raelyn forcefully pulled her arm away because she would rather stand closer to the young girl named Riley. Stepping down from the airstairs, she moved closer, studying Riley’s features and every move. Raelyn was beyond stunned. It was as if she had been transported back to her youth and was looking at a mirror!“Riley?” She muttered. Raelyn flinched because a sudden memory flashed in her head. She saw her youn

    "These are photos of us when we first reconnected. I visited you in Dowel then," Renee said, showing a picture of her and Raelyn. "You were still in college in this photo."Raelyn accepted the picture. She studied it intently before a smile became painted on her face. She said, "It's really us.""Yes, of course," Renee answered. "We are sisters."Raelyn acknowledged. She was sitting on her hospital bed when she looked at the picture again. She described, "I look so much like Riley here.""Indeed," Renee said. Tears stung her eyes, and she wiped them fast, saying, "As she was growing up, I struggled with the pain of losing you because I see you in her too, but I had to be strong. I went through a lot, trying to survive and put food on the table for both of us.""I can... only imagine," Raelyn softly remarked, her eyes downcast as if she were reliving the story Renee had shared.Raelyn had been in the hospital for two days. The entire time, only Riley stayed with her. Her husband, Adrian

    "How do I look?" Charles asked, his voice a little hoarse after having wept. Riley helped fix Charles' necktie. She checked his overall appearance, then said, "You look handsome, Dad. Mom will fall in love with you all over again.""Ah, you don't have to lie to me. I'm your dad!" Charles grumbled.Earlier, Charles witnessed the emotional scene between Raelyn, Riley, and Renee. He related to the pain that Raelyn felt. After all, he went through the same experience: losing a loved one and finding it after so many years.However, what really brought him to tears was knowing he was missing out on their family moment. Charles sincerely believed he deserved to be included in their embrace, but he was concerned about how Raelyn would respond to him, mainly because Calvin and Ramona had long portrayed him as the villain in her life."I'm not lying, Dad. A man who can show vulnerability and emotions demonstrates emotional depth and genuineness." Riley winked and said, "I'm sure Mom will find t

    "Your office is amazing, Dad!" Riley remarked as Charles gave everyone a grand tour. To each office department, Charles also proudly announced, "Everyone, this is my real daughter, Riley."Riley put on a bright smile. She waved at the managers and staff, saying, "Good morning. It's wonderful to meet all of you."Charles could see how his employees admired Riley's charms, and the single men either blushed or were in awe in her presence. Because of this, Adrian quickly introduced himself. Adrian put his arm around Riley and said, "And I am her husband, Adrian King. We are expecting a baby."While Charles laughed, reading between the lines, Riley, Renee, and Raelyn snapped their heads at Adrian, forming varied expressions. Abner and Anthony also visited Dowel Landmasters for the first time and laughed with Charles. Raelyn wanted to try and see if she could recover her memories. Hence, Charles' first attempt was to take her to his office building, where their romance began. "As you kn

    ### FLASHBACK CONTINUATION ###“Hmmm. Don’t you just find washing dishes therapeutic?” Raelyn asked with a smile. Her eyes were closed as she lathered dishwashing soap on the crawfish bucket.Charles and Raelyn were on their third date. She had always insisted on eating dinner at the crawfish restaurant because she said it was a good value. At that point, Charles learned two additional things about Raelyn. One, she loved seafood, especially shellfish. Two, Raelyn was a bit frugal. She really liked eating for free!Charles, however, could not do it anymore. His guilt was eating him. The second time they washed dishes at the crawfish restaurant, he noticed the curious looks from the kitchen staff. He figured they were puzzled as to why a billionaire’s son would refuse to pay a small, local restaurant. So, without Raelyn’s knowledge, he decided to purchase the establishment. That way, they could eat for free until Raeyln would get tired of eating crawfish. “Yes, it is indeed therapeuti

    "Good morning, Mom," Riley greeted, raising her coffee. "Morning. Where are the men?" Raelyn asked, seeing only one man at the dining table: Abner. Abner laughed. He declared, "Oh, don't worry. I have enough testosterone to cover all the missing men."Renee was the first to burst out laughing, and Riley followed. Naturally, Raelyn also laughed with them. "Dad is meeting his lawyers at the office," Riley finally revealed after composing herself. "Adrian and Father Anthony are at Dowel Landmasters, finalizing a few plans with Kyle."After Raelyn was discharged, she lived in a hotel with Renee, but eventually, Riley convinced her to move to Charles' mansion with them. Last night was her first sleep at Charles' home, which was surprisingly comforting. "Meeting his lawyers?" Raelyn asked, a little disappointed that Charles was not around."He had filed another case against Calvin for denying your freedom over the years," Riley said. "Are you ready to see Calvin, Mom?"Hearing Calvin's

    "Wow." Riley's eyes watered, seeing her baby's progress. She turned to Adrian and asked, "Honey, are you seeing this?"Their baby's facial features were more defined. The arms and legs were fully formed, and Riley saw the baby moving its limbs."Can we already tell if it's a girl or a boy?" Adrian asked Zia. The couple were again at the King's Medical Center for Riley's prenatal. Riley was already around sixteen weeks pregnant. Zia kept moving the ultrasound probe, but eventually, she said, "I still can't see it. When the baby is eighteen to twenty weeks, it's more definite. Unless, of course, the baby is covering their sex, then it becomes a surprise for later."Riley lay in the hospital bed, thinking of her mother. With a big smile, she turned to Adrian and said, "I can't wait to tell Mom what's the gender.""God, you gotta update me, Riley! It wasn't long ago when you found your dad and now, your mom! It's just mind-blowing!" Zia reacted. "It's been hectic," Riley admitted while

    “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
