EX-HUSBAND'S REGRET: "Mommy, please forgive Daddy." 016
Jordan remained lost in his thoughts for a moment until an unexpected voice interrupted his concentration."You have a visitor, Mr. Salvador," the officer's voice echoed in the quiet space.Feeling a surge of curiosity about the identity of the visitor, he reluctantly lifted his gaze towards the officer standing across the room. "Who is it?" Jordan inquired, his brows furrowing in confusion."Family. Your mother," The officer responded while unlocking the door.Initially, a wave of disappointment washed over Jordan as he had hoped for a different visitor. He let out a weary sigh, his thoughts spiraling into a mix of heartbreak and desire. He couldn't quite understand why he had expected Alexa to be the one visiting him, especially after her earlier assertion that they had no connection whatsoever. He inwardly scolded himself for harboring such delusions.Shaking off his disappointment, Jordan finally stood up and made his way across the room to join the officer, who then guided him t

Catherine was fazed for a moment, her mind spiraling with conflicting thoughts. From the expression on her face, Jordan could tell she was still reeling from the disbelief from the revelation. Like, who wouldn't? Alexa not just becoming a prosecutor but the one in charge of his case, had also struck him like a thunderbolt. He couldn't believe it. And he didn't expect his mother to believe the news so suddenly.Meanwhile, Catherine's brows furrowed in a frown as she regarded her son once more. His expression brimmed with nothing but seriousness, and it really troubled her. Recalling the past and what she had put Alexa through, Catherine felt a twinge in her heart. A blend of guilt and dread coursed through her veins as she grappled with the reality of the news.Eventually, she swallowed the lump that had formed in her throat and turned her eyes to Jordan."So, it's true? You're serious? Are you sure you aren't mistaking her for someone else? I've considered all possibilities and it sti

Alexa stepped out of the police station and made her way to her car immediately after concluding her meeting with Jordan. As she settled into the driver's seat, she took a moment to calm her racing heart, gripping the steering wheel tightly. A flurry of thoughts raced through her mind, prompting her to draw in a deep breath to gather herself.The encounter with Jordan had left her reeling. Although she had mentally prepared for this moment after Tyler's call, the reality of facing him was still daunting.With a heavy sigh, she reflected on their earlier conversation, her heart pounding as conflicting emotions swirled within her, causing an ache in her chest. She despised this feeling. How could she still be affected by him after everything that had happened? Surely, it must be shock. She couldn't possibly still harbor feelings for Jordan. No.Shoving those thoughts aside, memories of Jordan's betrayal crept back into her mind, igniting a simmering anger. Her demeanor shifted, the desi

Alexa took a seat across from hers after they had exchanged pleasantries. Though her demeanor remained neutral, the lady Alexa had come to visit could clearly notice that Alexa wasn't in a cheerful mood. The lady simply regarded her as she awaited Alexa to break the silence."So, to what do I owe the pleasure of your visit, Attorney McKanne?" She inquired, a subtle smile gracing her lips as her blue eyes lingered on Alexa.Alexa lifted her gaze and studied her, examining her features; the lady was dressed in a sharp corporate outfit, and her blonde hair cascaded down her face in soft waves, complementing her ocean-blue orbs. Alexa's gaze gradually drifted from the woman's face down to the table where the small glass plate settled, with the bold inscriptions on it, 'Principal Cartersville.' It was clear the woman before her was no other person than her friend, Nina Cartersville, also the principal of the prestigious school Alexa's children attended.Following the troubling incident wi

Alexa reeled back from her shock with anger brewing through her as she locked eyes with Catherine's imploring ones.Alexa couldn't pinpoint the source of her annoyance; if it was the fake smile etched on Catherine's face currently or the fact that she had just called her 'my dear'; that was a term Alexa wasn't familiar with.Her annoyance bubbling with her, Alexa seethed and gritted through clenched teeth. "What the fuck are you doing here? What the hell do you want, Catherine?"Catherine attempted to maintain her smile, but the indifference radiating from Alexa caused it to falter almost immediately. She assessed Alexa, her eyes scanning her before she nodded. "You look good, my dear. Jordan was right about you," she offered, returning her gaze."Your dear? Who the hell are you referring to as that?" Alexa snapped, her eyes blazing with annoyance. Furthermore, she realized she had no idea how Catherine had found her home. "Why did you come here? How did you even know my place?"Cathe

The gentle brush of Atlas's body against her legs jolted Alexa from her reverie. Instinctively, she reached out and pulled him behind her, instinctively attempting to shield him from Catherine. Her nerves unraveled as her heartbeat intensified, the anxiety of Catherine potentially uncovering the truth about the twins gnawing at her. However, despite the turmoil within, Alexa's expression remained composed and indifferent as she faced Catherine.Meanwhile, Catherine's gaze shifted slowly from the boy to Alexa's eyes after she had tucked Atlas behind her. She scrutinized Alexa's features, comparing them to those of the toddler. There was no doubt that this was Alexa's child. Although surprised, Catherine couldn't help but feel a sense of fascination at how charming the little boy looked."He looks just like you, Alexa. What a beautiful boy," Catherine remarked, a small smile gracing her lips.In response, Alexa remained silent, her gaze locked onto Catherine's. It then dawned on her tha

The following day.Alexa set two plates of scrambled eggs and pancakes in front of the toddlers, affectionately patting their heads before moving to retrieve their water bottles. "Where's your Aunty, sweetheart?" she asked one of the twins, referring to Elena.At that moment, Elena entered the kitchen, her eyes still heavy with sleep as she yawned her way over to them. "Hey," she murmured softly, taking a seat at the counter. Before settling in, she bent down to plant gentle kisses on each toddler's temple. "Good morning, my angels. How did you sleep?" she inquired sweetly.Alexa watched their interaction with a warm smile, cherishing the way Elena expressed her affection for the twins. Elena loved them like they were hers. Many people often assumed Elena was their mother due to her attentive care. Rather than feeling envious, Alexa felt incredibly fortunate to have Elena in their lives, as she had alleviated much of her stress."Good morning," Alexa greeted softly, her gaze fixed o

"Elena," Alexa exclaimed in a panic, instinctively drawing her children close as the car slowly passed by them again. She gazed intently at the vehicle, hoping to catch a glimpse of its occupants, but the tinted windows of it thwarted her efforts. Despite this, Alexa's eyes remained fixed on the car as it exited the school grounds. "Hey, what's wrong?" Elena's worried voice snapped Alexa back to reality. "You called me," she added, searching Alexa's face for answers. The fear etched across Alexa's features was palpable, leaving Elena perplexed as she wondered what was wrong. Alexa blinked repeatedly, struggling to regain her composure before turning to face Elena. She opened her mouth to respond, but at first, no words came out as her mind continued racing with numerous thoughts. "Hey, are you okay? What's the matter?" Elena interrupted, snapping her fingers in front of Alexa's face. Nodding eagerly, Alexa replied, pulling out of her daze. "Yeah, I'm fine, I'm fine. But did you se

"No. No damn way..." Catherine muttered absentmindedly as she shook her head. She was already registering Jordan's inquiry in her head and it frightened her to conclude with her suspicion."What is it, Mother? Did you recall something?" Jordan asked promptly, causing Catherine to pull off her thoughts.Though she was still fazed, she darted her eyes towards Jordan, regarding him with hesitation. Her lips were slightly parted in disbelief as she considered the possibilities of his claims. She found it hard to accept. How could that even be possible?"Talk to me, Mom, what's going on?" Jordan urged, seeing Catherine had suddenly gone mute.Catherine blinked weakly as her gaze faltered. Her frown only deepened when she locked eyes with Jordan's. In that instant, she caught a glimpse of a resemblance between the toddler she had seen with Alexa the other day and Jordan. Just as quickly as it had come, it also vanished like that. But Catherine noted it and this fazed her even more."Jordan?

Jordan's thoughts were a raging mess by the time he returned to his cell that evening after his meeting with Norman. He was consumed with distressing thoughts and questions he didn't have answers to. He was overthinking a lot and it greatly disturbed him. Norman's earlier claims regarding Alexa's supposed children repeated in his head like a mantra. His brows were furrowed in a frown as he contemplated each thought that swirled within him.'Kids that look exactly like you'. How true was this statement? Was Norman talking gibberish, or did he actually mean it? Was he trying to pull his legs or something? But Jordan realized Norman wasn't the kind of man who'd joke about something so sensitive. Then what was all this? Jordan pondered.As he reclined in the chair in his cell, he gazed up at the ceiling like it had the answers he was searching for.After a moment of contemplation without any reasonable conclusion, Jordan heaved out heavily. He lowered his gaze to the floor, trying to pus

"...Kids that look exactly like you," Jordan was flabbergasted. "What?" Before now, Jordan had instructed Norman to carry out an investigation on Alexa. He had done that in attempts to access information he'd be able to use to manipulate while she interrogated him later on. Norman had been on it and had promised to get back to him as soon as he found something tangible. Surely, this was the last thing Jordan anticipated he'd find out; that Alexa had kids? The same Alexa who couldn't conceive for him and lost their baby in the hospital four years ago? And what the fuck did Norman mean by his last statement. 'Kids that look exactly like you.' What did that even mean? Jordan pondered. He could hardly believe his ears. If it hadn't been for his long-time friendship with Norman, he'd have concluded Norman was talking gibberish. But he knew that was unlike the man. He would never joke about anything, talk more of something that triggering, considering the hell Jordan had been through

Upon the revelation, Jordan had been livid. He confronted Luciana about it, and when she attempted to deny the claims, he slammed the DNA paperwork alongside divorce papers to her face, ordering her to get out of his life immediately.Jordan had been genuinely hurt, considering he also needed an heir to acquire his inheritance. It completely devastated him to learn that he had been fooled by Luciana for four whole years. He had wanted to seek extreme measures to ensure she paid for what she did, but Luciana had begged for his mercy, also promising she would flee the country and never cross his path again. After several times of begging, Jordan had heeded her pleas for the sake of the innocent toddler. He made a pact with Luciana that as long as she kept out of his way, he would stay out of hers. Guess that was all jokes, seeing the same woman who had fooled him, was sitting comfortably before him with nice clothes and expensive jewelries while Jordan rot in his shabby prison uniform.

Luciana Henderson was literally the last person Jordan had imagined would visit him while still in custody. Ever since they got divorced about a month ago, Luciana had left the country to who knows where. Jordan wasn't bothered about her and he never cared about where she had gone to. If anything, he still loathed her with every fiber of his being for all the heartache and mockery she had put him through. Luciana was a damn bitch, and if they hadn't been anywhere around the police, Jordan would have reciprocated her visitation with a harmful gesture; perhaps, snap her neck and send her to the hospital."The fuck are you doing here, Luciana?" He asked, his hard gaze lingering on her as he watched her approach his side. He was already upset. Luciana Henderson offered him a small smile, her cute dimples displaying on her rosy cheeks, complementing her fiery red hair that flowed down her shoulders in soft waves. She was dressed extravagantly in a furry white coat and she fidgeted her sun

"What are you reading...?" The question echoed into Alexa's ears, causing her to pause as she thought she hadn't heard him right. Skeptically, she redirected her gaze at him. "What?" She questioned instinctively, her phone clutched in her hand. Jordan pointed at her phone and repeated. "I said, what are you reading?" Alexa couldn't believe it. She couldn't believe his audacity. She blinked weakly, a chuckle rumbling from her as she registered his seriousness. She shook her head subtly as she regarded him for a moment before she lashed out. "The fuck do you mean what am I reading? Who the fuck do you think you are to even ask me that? How dare you." Alexa snapped with annoyance, her orbs glistening with resentment. Nonetheless, the billionaire shrugged nonchalantly and pointed out. "You came here to interrogate me, didn't you? I just think you should do that instead of getting carried away by anything that must have caught your attention earlier." Alexa was stunned. She hesit

The door to the dimly lit room creaked open, effectively causing Jordan Salvador to dart his gaze towards the entrance in expectation of the one whom he had been anticipating her arrival. A blend of relief and exhaustion coursed through him as he locked eyes with the ruthless female prosecutor, who approached his side with an expressionless face. Of course, this prosecutor was Alexa.Jordan leaned back in his chair, his eyes still fixated on her as he watched her grab the chair across his and settle into it without even sparing him a glance. Jordan felt his heart twist hurtfully but he pushed aside his pain."Hey, baby," he started, choosing to greet her first since she clearly had no intentions of doing that.Disregarding his pleasantries, Alexa placed her work files on the desk, getting right into business as she brought out the necessary files. She neatly arranged them as needed before finally lifting her gaze to meet Jordan's.A smile crossed Jordan's face but it shortly faltered

Alexa was momentarily stunned as she heard his inquiry. She was fazed as her frown deepened. She hadn't seen that question coming, and she inwardly pondered the reason behind Tyler's inquiry. That was so unexpected."Huh?" Alexa finally blurted out after a moment of silence. Tyler's gaze was still fixated on her hopefully, patiently awaiting her response.Heaving out a deep sigh, Alexa shook her head gently, conveying her confusion. "I- I don't get it, why are you asking me that, if I may ask?"Tyler licked his lips and regarded her respectfully before starting. "I didn't mean to pry into your privacy, Lex, I just wanted to know...""I know, and I'm asking why?" Alexa interrupted him, impatience swirling within her.Tyler paused as he gazed at her. He then ran his fingers through his hair nervously and heaved out, trying to settle his unraveling nerves. "I really do like you, Alexa McKanne, and I want you to be my woman but I can't help but always think the reason behind your reluctan
