“Wait, officer. You must be mistaken. My husband wouldn’t -” Riley paused. A frown formed on her face as she clarified, “Hold on. Which husband?”

“Well, lady, how many husbands do you have?” The officer inquired on the other line.

Rolling her eyes, Riley answered, “Are you referring to my ex-husband? Brian Martin?”

“He is your ex-husband?” The police reconfirmed. “He said you are his wife and his emergency contact.”

When Riley only let out a sigh of irritation, the police reported, “We needed someone to help process his bail, but I guess he can stay in jail.”

“Wait.” Riley paused. She thought about what Zia had said. She might regret it, but she figured she could speak to Brian one last time. Riley said, “I don’t know about bail, but I’ll be there.”

She called Adrian and informed him of her plans. Naturally, he was mad, but Riley was determined to end Brian’s madness. She hoped that by talking to him again, he would remember all the reasons to stay away from her life.

I like Adrian, but regardless of how much money he has why does he have access to the jury system? Why is he being vindictive and threatening Brian’s livelihood when dealing with a personal issue? It always bother me when in real life or book characters always go for the jugular for personal issues

Brian..... this is far-fetched. What does Brian have to gain by hurting Adrian? I don't believe this.

    Adrian received the news the following night. When the call came in, he was having an early dinner with his family, so he put his phone on speaker while setting aside his knife and fork. His contact in Sweden reported, “Mr. King, we have a name for you.”Except for Renee, everyone else stilled in anticipation. Anthony dropped his fork, staring at Adrian while Abner sucked in a deep breath. “Who?” Adrian asked firmly. “The name is Brian Martin, Sir. He said this Brian guy reached out to him from Halliport to tamper with your ski trail,” the person on the other end explained. “Elias was paid a hefty sum to carry it out.”“Brian? No,” Riley reacted. “That’s crazy.” She turned to Adrian and suggested, “Adrian, you can’t honestly believe this.”When Riley objected, Adrian couldn’t help but feel a pang in his chest. While he understood it was shocking, it upset Adrian how Riley sided with Brian. After all, it was just yesterday that she went to see her ex-husband at the police station.

    "You can check on all our transactions. You can ask my managers. I'm not fucking lying," Brian muttered. He gulped. His hands trembled as he scattered the documents on the table's surface.When mid-morning came, Brian's managers had gathered all their documents related to the order, which led to an overpayment. Adrian was yet again back at the police station, in the same room as last night. His lawyers, Clint, and the case investigators had to review the documents individually. "I swear, Adrian, I do not know this Elias," Brian said. Adrian stared at the invoice for a customer named Norman Foster. This was the supposed customer who had purchased a half-million-dollar piece of jewelry and overpaid the same amount. Brian explained, "He said that his mobile banking disconnected the first time he transferred, so he moved money twice by mistake.""The client said that Mr. Elias Lindberg is his relative, and he requested that the refund be transferred to that account in Sweden.

    “No, no. No, Mr. King. Not the feet. Please, anything but that! No!” Elias screamed before an endless and forced laugh escaped his lips. For half a day now, Abner had been tickling Elias mercilessly with an eagle feather in his hand. Adrian shook his head as he watched his grandfather. Abner only raised a brow at him, saying, “What? Didn’t you know that Elias is easily tickled?”This time, instead of the feather, Abner used a quill and traced a circular motion on the soles of Elias’s feet.“No!” Elias screamed again. “I’m going to pee! I’m going to pee!”“Just tell us what we need to know, Elias. We already know it’s not Brian Martin, so why don’t you save yourself the trouble,” Abner leaned in closer, brushing the feather’s tip lightly against Elias’ ears, relentlessly teasing him. “I can keep this up all day without breaking a sweat.”“No! Please, enough! I can’t! I can’t take it anymore! I’ve already peed in my boxers three times!” Elias begged. “Not our problem, but if you tell u

    “Surprise! A crawfish lunch!” Charles exclaimed while uncovering the food on their table. Raelyn laughed hysterically and said, “Even if you covered the food, I could tell it’s crawfish. I mean, who can’t smell crawfish from a yard away?”Charles laughed with her too. The laugh lines that appeared on his handsome face made her heart flutter. Raelyn could not help but admire the man before her. More than Charles’ good looks, she had the best experience with him so far. While in Hawaii, Charles took Raelyn on many boat trips and seafood adventures. Charles had encouraged her to participate in many watersports activities, from motorized to non-motorized. She felt like she was young again, enjoying life at the beach. While there, fragments of her memory resurfaced, including moments of her and Charles as a couple. Although these memories weren’t complete, they were enough for Raelyn to feel confident that she could trust Charles with her life and heart.The only problem was that Charles

    Raelyn entered Charles' bedroom first. She heard the door close behind them. She was about to turn when Charles embraced her from behind. "I missed you. I missed this so much," Charles said under his breath.Before Raelyn could respond, she noticed him gather all her hair to one side, his hot breath tickling her neck. "Mmmm. Charles," Raelyn panted. She quickly felt goosebumps all over the second his lips touched her skin. "You used to love this," he said. Raelyn's chest heaved dramatically as she was feeling all sorts of pleasure from Charles' teasing. After taking deep breaths, she asked, "Did I?""Don't you like it now?" He asked back. Oh, she was undoubtedly enjoying that moment, especially when Charles gently sucked on her neck while his other arm pulled her closer to him. "Oh, god," Raelyn gasped. The butterflies in her stomach went wild as Charles began to kiss the slope between her neck and shoulders. The next thing she knew, his hand was nearly cupping her breast, and sh

    "You are so beautiful, just as I remembered." Kneading Raelyn's breasts, Charles could feel the electricity running through his body. Raelyn and Charles were in their third round. He earlier came on her ass, and after that, Raelyn straddled him. So, this time, Raelyn took control of their intimacy. While she was grounding on him, he relished her soft bosoms, repeatedly massaging them with his bare hands, his eyes occasionally landing on how his thick shaft went in and out of her core. Because of the stimulating view, he felt his manhood grow thicker, and it twitched inside of her. "Aah!" Raelyn moaned. She said, "You moved inside of me.""Come here," Charles urged, gently pulling her by the arm. Yet again, they were skin-to-skin. Charles helped her with their lovemaking as he pushed his manhood up to go deeper inside of her instead. They kissed as he held her two-round flesh. He felt his earlier cum moistening her flesh, and he purposely spread his fluid across her butt cheeks.

    "So you remember everything?" The doctor asked Raelyn. "A lot of it. There are still incomplete bits and pieces, like after the accident," Raelyn answered. "There are missing memories in between my pregnancy, but generally, I remember a lot now."After Raelyn's emotional awakening, with the memories of the past flooding in, Charles, Riley, and Renee visited the doctor handling her case. Raelyn underwent a few psychological and neurological tests before the doctor gave his opinion. "It's also possible that the cause of her amnesia was psychological. It is a memory loss caused by psychological factors, such as extreme stress or trauma, rather than physical injury to the brain. This form of amnesia is often linked to the individual's emotional state," The doctor explained. "And now that Raelyn is in good care, with the people that truly love her, and back in the city that she used to live in, she is remembering the past.""From what I understand, she was isolated without her knowing, ri

    “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
