EX-HUSBAND'S REGRET: "Mommy, please forgive Daddy." 037
"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?

"Here are the additional files you requested, ma'am," Sapphire added as she placed down the workload of files in her hand on Alexa's desk. Alexa, who had been working tirelessly behind her computer, lifted her gaze to observe the workload and she couldn't help but exhale heavily, knowing she had a long day ahead of her. "Are these all of them?" She eventually asked, shifting her gaze to Sapphire, who nodded in affirmation in response to her inquiry.Alexa continued with a breathy response. "Okay, that's fine. I'll look into it alright? Thank you, Sapphire,""Always, Ma'am." She smiled genially. "If you need anything else, just let me know.""I sure will." Alexa managed a smile before urging her to return to her office, which was only a few feet away from hers since they shared the same space.Alexa resumed working after Sapphire had exited her presence. She engrossed herself in her work because she found it as a means to also escape her chaotic reality. Knowing each time she lost c

Alexa's eyes darted to the entrance as she noticed someone walk past the door. But she wasn't prepared for the guest that stood beside Sapphire as Sapphire made her way to her."Hey, ma'am, you have a visitor," Sapphire told Alexa as she approached her desk. She added in a quiet voice so just Alexa could hear her. "I'm not really familiar with her but she claims she's your relative or something..." Alexa was still in a daze, trying to regain her composure. She hadn't realized she had gone silent for more than a minute until Tyler's voice on the other end pulled her from her reverie."Hey, baby, you there?" Tyler asked with concern, noticing Alexa's sudden silence. "What's going on?"Alexa blinked weakly as his voice resonated in her ears. Realization dawned on her that she was still on a call with him so she quickly returned her attention back to him.Reassuring him, she spoke. "Hey, I'm still here... Can I call you back? Something came up just now.""What's that? Are you going to be

A brief silence settled between them after Alexa's response. Catherine was dumbstruck, unable to believe what Alexa had told her to do. Glancing around herself and observing the distance between them, Catherine's face contorted with skepticism as she turned to face Alexa once more.Her brows scrunched up. "Are you being serious?" She questioned skeptically.Alexa shrugged and sighed heavily. "Did I laugh when I said that?""No, you didn't.""So, why the question?" She wiggled her brows at Catherine before prompting further. "Could you go straight to the point already? You're wasting the time I don't have."Catherine gulped, trying to swallow the lump that formed in her throat amidst trying to swallow down the humiliation from Alexa. She felt a wave of mortification wash over her as she grappled with Alexa's nonchalance and indifference. Nonetheless, she tried to remind herself of the main reason she was in her office; she was here on a mission. She couldn't let her emotions get in th

"So, do you mind sharing with me how you managed to navigate through all the chaos of the past four years?" Catherine inquired after she had gotten settled into her seat. They had already tackled a light conversation before she mustered the courage to ask Alexa this. A reassuring smile adorned Catherine's face as she reciprocated Alexa's gaze, awaiting her response.On the other hand, Alexa observed Catherine intently. She hadn't fully placed her trust in her yet but was simply just playing along to see where all this would lead. She was very certain Catherine was only putting on a front to appear innocent, but Alexa would not be fooled. She had been through this before.Maintaining her calmness, Alexa managed a smile and shrugged casually as she leaned back in her chair. "I worked hard." She stated, lifting her brows nonchalantly. "That's just it."Catherine nodded briskly with a sense of pride washing over her features. "Hmm, I'm impressed. I always knew you were resilient."When

Alexa hung up and started the ignition of her car before maneuvering her way out of the parking lot. Her face brimmed with amusement as she reflected on her earlier conversation with Catherine. She couldn't place it but something about their encounter just amused her so much. Unlike the last time, Alexa found herself less annoyed about meeting with her. Maybe it was because she noticed the old lady's puny efforts at trying to convince her that she was a changed person. I mean, who actually tries so hard to sell a facade like that?Alexa couldn't help but chuckle to herself as she dwelled in her thoughts. "What a fucking joke." She muttered as she shook her head pathetically, making a right turn onto the road.Twenty minutes later, Alexa arrived at the school, pulling up to the curb of the parking lot. She exited her car with two lunch packs in her hands."Mommy!" Atlas was the first to spot her and he let out an excited squeal as he broke free from Elena's grasp and dashed toward his

Alexa decided it would be best not to press the child further with questions until they returned home. She gently lifted Blair into her arms, placing soft kisses on her temples before making her way to the car, where Elena and Atlas were already waiting.As soon as she entered the vehicle, Elena's eyes reflected her concern. "What was that all about?" she inquired, confusion lacing her tone."You tell me," Alexa replied curtly, turning the ignition. "You're the one responsible for watching over them at school. How could you let this happen?" Her voice was clipped.Elena was taken aback. "What?" she exclaimed, her brows knitting together. "Are you really placing the blame on me right now?""I’d rather not discuss it," Alexa stated firmly, avoiding eye contact.Deep down, Alexa recognized that her frustration was manifesting in an unusual manner. It wasn’t her intention to lash out; but, she was bewildered and upset by the fact that a stranger had approached her daughter while Elena was

Seated somewhat uncomfortably behind the large table, Catherine Salvador found herself surrounded by the board of directors at JS Enterprises. Her lips formed a tight line, and her expression remained impassive as she focused intently on the young man currently presenting before the board.He was tall and strikingly handsome, with raven-black hair slicked back, giving him a fierce yet appealing demeanor. Sharply dressed in a tailored suit, he exuded an air of sophistication and confidence. Captivating the attention of everyone in the room, his audience listened intently as he delivered his presentation. This man was none other than Henry Scofield Salvador, the company’s vice-chairman, and Jordan's stepbrother, potentially even his rival.Henry was outlining a project he had made aimed at developing the company and enhancing its services to society. Occasionally, his gaze shifted to the elderly man seated at the head of the table, who watched him with obvious pride as he absorbed his i

"Waiting list?" Jordan gasped, his heart clenching with bewilderment. "What does that even mean?" He asked, his panic-stricken orbs darting between Alexa's."I thought I just explained it to you." Alexa shot back. "I believe you're still a potential criminal and I'd like to get to the bottom of the matter before making a final decision!" She repeated, her voice laden with annoyance.Jordan shook his head, his brows knitting together in a frown. "Come on, baby, I thought we were making some progress here. You can't do that to me, come on, that ain't fair, you know that," He stated, disappointment lacing his tone.Alexa regarded him with a scoff before replying. "What do you know about fair and unfair things?"He was rendered speechless as his eyes bore into hers."You will let me handle this without any interruption..."Finding his sense of speech again, Jordan suggested. "Alexa, come on, you know you can still investigate this even when I'm out. I don't necessarily need to be here bef

It had already been a day since Mr. James's proposal regarding Jordan's release, yet his words still echoed in Alexa's mind like a mantra, causing her heart to twinge often as she struggled to navigate her thoughts.As she drove down the highway towards the States Prison, where she was holding a session with Jordan in a few minutes, Alexa took the moment to reflect on her thoughts and Mr. James's proposal as well. That suggestion had no doubt come as a surprise to her as she hadn't seen it coming. She had thought all matters would be resolved through the court process, whereby Jordan would likely face a sentence.A wave of heartbreak washed over Alexa, however, a part of her was glad that they had seen another method to resolve the issue. In as much as she hated Jordan and still wanted to make him pay, Alexa couldn't help but feel relieved that he wouldn't be punished unjustly. She had come to believe his claims about being innocent. Although she hadn't secured any backup or evidence

As Mr. James's words echoed throughout the room, the tension within grew. Alexa, whose heart had been pounding in her chest watched out for Sapphire's bewildered gaze. She expected her to have an outburst about what was going on as no one in their office ever knew Alexa was once married, talk more of being once married to the same client she was currently prosecuting.Alexa's heart leaped as she realized a big part of her secret had been revealed low-key by James. However, her expression remained neutral even though her heart was thumping with anxiousness as everyone in the room remained silent.She had lied to her colleagues, including Sapphire and Tyler, that she had no marriage to anyone before. Because her marriage to Jordan was now a thing of her past and she wanted it to remain that way, she had refused to reveal the truth to anyone that once asked about her children's father.Eventually, after a moment of eerie silence in the room, Alexa cleared her throat as Sapphire refused t

As Alexa made a right turn on the road, the thought that had been gnawing at her for a while now caused her to sigh as she regained her composure."I still can't understand any of it," She muttered to Elena's hearing.Elena, who was looking out the window before as she mentally prepared her mind for another day in school, turned as Alexa's words sailed into her ears.She regarded Alexa's demeanor, her tense expression and she couldn't help but ask as she corked her brows at her."Can't understand any of what?"Alexa drew in a deep breath and exhaled before revealing. "Luciana came by my office yesterday, offering a helping hand on Jordan's case."Elena was fazed, her brows raising. "Huh?"Disregarding her reaction, Alexa continued. "She apologized, even brought me flowers as an attempt at reconciliation, which I obviously declined... But you needed to see how she genuinely apologized for every wrong she had caused. It's crazy for real.""Hold on, Alexa." Elena licked her lips, her fro

He rammed into her unexpectedly, causing Luciana to scream as a mix of immense pain and pleasure coursed through her. Henry's cock was buried deep inside her channel but he paused, allowing her to adjust to his size as he had taken her unexpectedly. His dick pulsated inside of her as her walls clamped around him."Uh, uh, fuck," Luciana moaned, seeing stars of ecstasy flying above her head as her eyes rolled into her head. She yanked the bedsheet for support, unable to comprehend how he had gotten so big since the last time.Their bodies joined; Henry paused, watching her as she struggled to catch her breaths, her face twisting with pain. Henry lowered himself to calm her down, his lips latching onto hers as he made to reduce her discomfort. "Fuck me already, please," Luciana whimpered amidst the kiss as he began moving in and out of her in a slow yet deep thrust.Luciana caressed his head, brushing her lips against his as he began fucking her, his pace increasing slowly with each pa

That evening, after tucking her son into bed, Luciana made her way to her bedroom. She removed her clothes and stepped into the shower.As the warm water cascaded over her, she reflected on the events of the day, particularly her meeting with Alexa. It struck her that after numerous pleas, Alexa had finally lent her an attentive ear. Luciana chuckled to herself, acknowledging that her manipulative tactics had once again proven effective.However, as she thought back on the outcome of their meeting, a sense of disappointment washed over her. Alexa offered no encouragement for Luciana's aspirations to join her team; instead, she had cautioned her to stay out of her business affairs and focus on her own.Luciana opened her eyes, releasing a frustrated huff as she collected her thoughts. "She's insufferable," she muttered under her breath while reaching for her body wash.Setting aside thoughts of Alexa, she poured the liquid onto her skin and began to cleanse herself, the water continuin

A wave of relief coursed through Luciana, learning Alexa had agreed to give her listening ears. Even though Alexa had declined her from entering her office, Luciana felt grateful regardless.Shattering the silence that had descended upon them after Alexa's declaration earlier, Luciana finally spoke up. "Firstly, I'd like to apologize. I know I haven't really offered you an apology for everything that has happened and has been happening. I've confronted you twice now because of Jordan; regardless, you still gave me the chance to talk to you right now. I know I don't deserve that and I just want you to know how grateful I am to you."As Luciana's heartfelt apology streamed into Alexa's ears, Alexa couldn't help but wonder if it was the same Luciana she knew. It was very strange to see her apologizing like this. Nonetheless, Alexa remained quiet, allowing her to finish her big speech. She still had her doubts about Luciana and wasn't ready to give her any benefit of the doubt.Luciana's

"Ma'am, you have an appointment in ten minutes," Sapphire announced politely, prompting Alexa to glance up from her computer, her brow furrowing in confusion."An appointment?" Alexa replied, bewildered. "Who is it with?"She had just asked about her daily schedule when Sapphire revealed the existence of an appointment she was completely unaware of.Sapphire narrowed her eyes at the file she held, reading aloud, "Maria Gonzalez."The name struck Alexa as somewhat peculiar, leading her to scoff, as she had no familiarity with it. "Maria what?""Gonzalez," Sapphire repeated, maintaining eye contact with Alexa.Alexa shook her head, leaning back in her chair. "I don't know who that is... Do you have any idea who she might be?" She asked Sapphire, struggling to comprehend the unfamiliar name. The thought of meeting with someone she had never encountered before unsettled her."No idea, ma'am, but she did mention that it was urgent," Sapphire replied, cutting through Alexa's thoughts and br

"Yeah, I'll take those," Luciana told the florist as she pointed at a peculiar bouquet of roses on the flower counter.The florist, a young lady, nodded briskly before making her way to retrieve the flowers from the counter. Thereafter, heading inside the shop to package them nicely for Luciana.Luciana's heart thudded in her chest as she glanced at her surroundings, her gaze occasionally traveling to observe the watch adorning her wrist as though she was late for a meeting. This was because she had booked an appointment in someone else's name in order to visit a special person on this day. Surprisingly, the person she intended to visit with the bouquet of roses she had just gotten from the flower shop, was Alexa. Funny, right?Luciana had resolved after she met with Raven the other day that the only way she would be able to keep Alexa off her tracks was by befriending her and using that means to uncover Alexa's secrets. They said to keep your enemies close, right? This was the strate
