Rita's eyes fluttered open, and she found herself in a dimly lit room. Percy was sitting beside her, concern etched on his face. "Rita, are you alright?" he asked, his voice filled with worry.She took a deep breath, her memories still swirling in her mind. "I... I remember," Rita whispered, her voice quivering. "I remember everything now, Percy."Percy's eyes widened, a mix of surprise and relief washing over him. "You do? That's incredible, Rita. What do you remember?"Tears welled up in Rita's eyes as she recounted the memories that had flooded back to her. "Jaden... the mountain... the kidnappers. I remember saving him, guiding him down the slope," she said, her voice trembling. "And the necklace, Percy. It was Jaden who caught hold of it, not you."Percy's expression darkened, his grip on the necklace tightening. "Rita, you don't understand. I... I did what I had to do to protect you. Jaden was too weak, and I couldn't let him have it. It was for your own safety."Rita looked at
The powerful will to survive continuously fueled Rita, and she had to make sure Jaden knew that she was the little girl who saved him back then. Just then, Rita heard Jaden's voice, calling out to her repeatedly. She desperately wanted to respond, but she realized she didn't have the strength to speak.As the haze of exhaustion blurred Rita's vision, she managed to raise her hand weakly in an attempt to signal Jaden. He rushed to her side, his expression a mix of relief and concern. "Rita, you're awake!" he exclaimed, gently grasping her hand.A faint smile tugged at the corners of Rita's lips as she mustered the energy to whisper, "Saved... you." Her voice was barely a whisper, but the words were enough to convey her message.Jaden's eyes widened with understanding, memories of that fateful day flooding back. "You're the one who pulled me out of the river when we were just kids, aren't you?" he asked, his voice filled with amazement. "I've always wondered who that mysterious girl was
Rita handed over the recorded phone conversation to the police, accusing Noah and Percy of kidnapping. They were taken into custody for questioning.Inside the small, sterile interrogation room, Detective Rodriguez eyed Noah and Percy sternly. "Gentlemen, you're both aware of the serious allegations against you. Rita claims she has evidence of your involvement in the kidnapping. Care to explain yourselves?"Noah exchanged a tense glance with Percy before sighing heavily. "Detective, this is all a misunderstanding. We were never involved in any kidnapping. Rita is just trying to pin something on us."Percy nodded in agreement. "Absolutely, Detective. We may have had some disagreements with Rita, but kidnapping? That's a bit extreme."Detective Rodriguez leaned forward, his gaze unwavering. "Rita seems pretty convinced that you two are responsible. And this recorded conversation she handed over, where you discuss the 'plan' and even mention the victim's name, doesn't help your case."No
Rita's heart pounded with a mix of excitement and anxiety as she held the pregnancy report in her trembling hand. It was an unexpected revelation on this very day, the first anniversary of her marriage to Jaden. Overwhelmed by the news, she couldn't wait to share it with her husband, hoping it would bring them closer together.Driven by anticipation, Rita made her way to Jaden's workplace putting on a big smile and her favourite gown.As she entered his office, her eyes were immediately drawn to his dashing figure in a well-fitted suit. The sight of him ignited a fire within her, and she felt a wave of moisture between her thighs. Unable to contain her desire, she approached him with a sense of urgency and kissed him pa*sionately.He raised her purple gown that she had on, and started caressing her breast, placing the other hand on her vagina while he fingered her. She couldn't resist the pleasure she started moaning with his name on her mouth, he bent her slowly placing every of his
As Jaden stormed out of his a*sistant office, his frustration and annoyance burning deep within him. Rita's swift agreement to the divorce left him feeling resentful and confused. He couldn't shake the thought that her decision was influenced by her ex-boyfriend's return, and it only added fuel to his anger.As he walked briskly through the stair case of his company memories of the conversation from a year ago played on a loop in his mind.Jaden's heart raced with anticipation as he stood outside Percy's door, waiting for her to answer. He had mustered up the courage to ask her out on a date, and to his delight, she had accepted.As the door swung open, he couldn't help but admire Percy's beauty. She was dressed in a stunning blue shady gown that hugged her curves and accentuated her figure, leaving just enough to the imagination. It was a dress that exuded confidence and allure.Percy flashed a warm smile at Jaden, her eyes twinkling with excitement. She noticed his dapper appearance
Immediately Jaden saw Percy, he ran towards her, grabbed her by the waist, moved her curly hair to one side of her ear and kissed her pa*sionately. They both locked their lips deeply as they were rekindled by a love that was once dead.Jaden's lips met Percy's in a tender, loving kiss. It was a bittersweet moment, filled with both longing and regret. Percy's heart was heavy with the weight of her actions, and she couldn't help but apologise to Jaden for her selfishness.Percy's eyes glistened with unshed tears, her lips trembling as she spoke."I'm so sorry, Jaden," Percy whispered, her voice choked with regret. "I shouldn't have let my jealousy consume me. I shouldn't have kissed you when you're about to embark on a new Chapter of your life."Jaden reached out, gently cradling Percy's face in his hands. "Percy, love," he said, his voice filled with both affection and understanding, "I know it's been hard for you. But it's not your fault. I should have been more aware of how you were
The morning sun filtered through the kitchen window, casting a warm glow over Jaden and Rita as they stood side by side. The aroma of fresh coffee wafted through the air, mingling with the sweet scent of baking. It was a cosy scene, filled with laughter and anticipation.Rita looked at Jaden, a mischievous smile playing on her lips. "So, what are you making for us this morning for breakfast?" Jaden asked, his eyes twinkling with curiosity.Rita pondered for a moment, pretending to contemplate her options. "What would you love to eat?" she questioned, her voice teasing.Jaden leaned in closer, a playful glimmer in his eyes. "Anything that could make me not forget the taste of your food in my taste buds," he replied, his voice laced with a hint of mischief.Rita laughed, a melodic sound that filled the kitchen with joy. "Hmm… Okay, as your lordship pleases," she said, her tone matching his playful banter. "You know your wish is my command."Jaden's smile widened, and he moved even close
Rita stepped out of the car, taking a deep breath to steady her emotions. The hospital's sterile scent filled the air, a stark contrast to the turmoil raging inside her. She pushed aside the thoughts of Jaden and Percy for now, focusing solely on the well-being of her unborn child.Inside the hospital, Rita checked in at the reception desk and was soon guided to a room where a doctor would evaluate her condition. As she waited, she couldn't help but reflect on the turn of events that had led her to this moment. Her heart still carried the lingering hope that Jaden would realise the depth of his feelings for her, but she understood that she had to face reality and prepare for the possibility of raising their child alone.The doctor entered the room, a compa*sionate smile gracing their face. They listened attentively as Rita explained her symptoms and medical history. Sensing her emotional state, the doctor offered words of rea*surance and support."Rita, it's normal to feel overwhelmed

Percy intervened, shooing Noah away to buy some food for Rita. Percy had long desired to get rid of Rita but had always failed. She played the victim, revealing Jaden's information to Noah, aiming to gain his trust and work together to abduct Rita.Percy's patience had worn thin, and she saw an opportunity to finally unravel the tangled web Rita had woven. As Noah reluctantly left to fetch the food, Percy leaned in closer to Rita, her voice a low and dangerous whisper."Your little games won't work anymore, Rita," Percy hissed, her eyes piercing into hers. "I know your true intentions, and I won't let you manipulate Noah any longer."Rita's façade crumbled, her eyes darting around as if searching for an escape. She was cornered, and Percy knew it."You can't prove anything," Rita stammered, her voice shaky.Percy's lips curled into a sardonic smile. "Oh, but I can. You underestimated me, Rita. I've been gathering evidence of your deceit for quite some time now."Rita's defiance wavere
Rita's head spun as she tried to make sense of the situation. She blinked, trying to process the unexpected alliance between Noah and Percy. The room felt heavy with tension, and Rita's heart raced as she looked from Noah's eyes to Percy's determined expression."Rita, you have to understand," Noah began, his voice strained. "I never wanted any of this to happen. But you insisted on being with Jaden, and that tied your fate to his."Rita's eyes narrowed as she absorbed his words. "Tied my fate? What do you mean?"Percy chimed in, his tone calmer than Noah's, but equally serious. "Jaden possesses a power that could reshape the world, but it comes at a great cost. And you, Rita, unwittingly became part of that cost when you chose to stand by his side."Frustration bubbled within her, and she clenched her fists. "So, what? You two decided that locking me up was the solution? That destroying Jaden would somehow fix everything?"Noah's gaze softened, but his grip on his emotions remained t
Percy visited the hospital to see Jaden. He told her that he had completely lost patience with her and warned her that if she dared to harm Rita, he would not spare her.Percy pa*sionately questioned how Jaden could treat her like this, forgetting that she had saved his life.Percy's words hung in the air, tension thickening with every pa*sing second. The sterile hospital room seemed to close in on them, its cold white walls reflecting the emotional turmoil that swirled within. Jaden's gaze remained fixed on the floor, unwilling to meet Percy's accusatory stare."Percy," Jaden finally spoke, her voice barely above a whisper, "I know you're angry, and I understand why. But you don't understand the complexity of the situation."Percy clenched her fists, struggling to contain her frustration. "Complexity? Jaden, Rita is innocent in all of this. She's been through enough, and she doesn't deserve your wrath."Jaden's eyes flickered briefly, a hint of regret fleeting across her features. "Y
Rita and Jaden sat across from each other in Jaden's spacious office, a map of the exhibition area spread out before them. "This powder might hold the key to unraveling the mystery," Rita mused, her brows furrowed in concentration.Jaden nodded, his eyes fixed on the map. "It's clear that someone intentionally tampered with the dresses. But why? And how does it connect to the models' asthma?"Rita leaned forward, her fingers tracing the outline of the exhibition booths. "The powder could be a trigger, something that aggravated their asthma and caused the accidents. But who would want to harm them? And why would they target the wedding dresses?"Jaden leaned back in his chair, his expression thoughtful. "We need to find out who had access to the exhibition area that night. Let's start by reviewing the surveillance footage."Rita nodded and pulled out her tablet. "I've already instructed the team to retrieve the footage. We should have it soon."As they waited, Jaden's gaze drifted to a
The doctor informed Rita that Jaden had woken up. Rita was aware of the recent events, which had been a significant blow to Jaden.She comforted him, a*suring him that everything would eventually get better.Jaden wished for Rita to take the children and leave the country. He a*sured her that he would handle everything. Noah wouldn't give up easily, and Jaden didn't want Rita to become a pawn in Noah's game. He feared that Noah might use Rita against him, putting him in an even more vulnerable position.The doctor's words hung in the air as Rita absorbed the news. Jaden had finally woken up, a flicker of hope in the midst of their tumultuous situation. She had seen the toll recent events had taken on him, the weight of it all etched into the lines on his face. With a determined resolve, she entered Jaden's room, her heart heavy but determined to be the pillar of strength he needed.As she walked in, their eyes met, and a bittersweet smile played on Jaden's lips. Rita could sense his l
Percy leaned in, her voice a mere whisper, "Rita, think about it. With your parents' connections, we could make a difference. Save Jaden's company, his reputation."Rita's eyes flickered with a mix of uncertainty and determination. "But Percy, it's not that simple. I can't just walk away from Jaden when he needs me the most."Percy's brow furrowed. "Rita, I understand your loyalty, but we're talking about saving everything he's worked for. And your children's future too. This might be the only way."Rita shook her head, her voice growing firm. "No, Percy. I can't turn my back on him. He's innocent, and I won't let him go through this alone. We've faced challenges before, and we'll overcome this too."Percy's gaze softened as he reached out to hold Rita's hands. "I admire your dedication, Rita. But you're risking everything—your family, your children's well-being. Don't you want to secure their future?"Tears welled up in Rita's eyes as she looked down, struggling to find the words. "O
