A blend of excitement and elation washed over Jordan upon the revelation that his sister had arrived to see him. He was momentarily taken aback as he hadn't been expecting it. Ivy had been away for quite some time now. The last time they spoke or got in contact was the day he had finalized his divorce from Luciana in court.

After the legal signing off, Ivy had commended him for taking such a bold step to end things with Luciana. However, that was the last time they spoke as their grandfather had sent her to a country where cellular gadgets were barely used. She had gone there for training.

By the time Jordan reeled back from disbelief, he was brimming with elation.

"Ivy," He muttered to himself, the thought of seeing his only sister again after so many months, filling him with joy.

Jordan darted his gaze at the warden, who had been awaiting him by the corner of the cell.

Rising to his feet, a genuine smile marred Jordan's face as he regarded Antonio. "It's my sister..." He told h

    Raven Hardin was returning to her office after a meeting when she got a call from her husband. She dismissed her assistant as prepared to answer the call. Upon answering, she asked about well-being, and he, in turn, did the same. They discussed a few things over the phone, with Luke Hardin, eventually informing her that he'd be back the following week or thereabout. "Oh, I miss you so much, darling. I can't wait for you to be back," Raven murmured over the phone as she stepped into her office."Missing you too, sweetheart and I'm proud of how you're perfectly handling things at the company even without my assistance." His remark sailed into Raven's ears as she closed the door behind her.Crossing the room to her desk, Raven replied. "That's only happening because I don't have you to distract me, baby. I miss you and it's pretty lonely over here without you." She lied blatantly."I miss you too. I'll come back home to you soon enough." "I'll be waiting." Raven settled into the swive

    Nearly thirty minutes into Alexa's arrival, Raven had reluctantly answered all of her inquiries. Alexa had mostly asked about her financial records, how her company's accounting system worked, and if she was sure she didn't have an official connection with JS Enterprises. Raven was calm enough to answer all of her questions with caution, ensuring she didn't give Alexa the room to be more suspicious about her. "Well, that went well now, didn't it?" Alexa expelled a sigh as she prepared to leave.Raven shrugged, a feigned smile etched on her face. "Well, yes. I'm sorry for my hesitation earlier.""I completely understand, it's fine. You were worried and I get it." Alexa smiled warmly, their eyes locking onto each other's. "But you see how things turned out now? Everything went smoothly, didn't it?"Raven nodded curtly, pretending to be pleased with Alexa's reassurances. "It sure did."Alexa maintained her smile as she gazed at Raven briefly before finally rising to her heel. She added

    It was Saturday. Alexa and Elena already made plans to stay indoors throughout the day and spend quality time with the kids. Elena had strictly warned Alexa against working on this day because she wanted him to take a temporary break away from everything that had to do with Jordan and his case.It was past 10 in the morning, but Alexa and Elena were still very busy in the kitchen as they made arrangements for a successful and entertaining family day. While Alexa made the snacks, Elena assisted in baking them. The toddlers were still asleep as it was the weekend."So, how is work in general? And please I don't want to hear anything relating to Jordan." Elena stated as she gently placed one of the baking trays in the oven.Alexa, who was kneading dough, lifted her gaze and chuckled upon hearing Elena's words.She shrugged. "Well, work is fine.

    "Darling, when are you going to divorce her? Now that I'm here, I can't bear the thought of sharing you with any other woman, talk more of living under the same roof with her." Alexa halted in her tracks as she caught the sultry and familiar tone of a woman's voice echoing through the walls of her matrimonial bedroom. She remained fazed as she stood outside the door, questioning if she had truly heard what she thought she had. Her skepticism dissipated when the velvety voice of her beloved husband, filled with reassurance and tenderness, followed in response to the other woman."Come on, sweetheart, you know Alexa is still pregnant with my child. I've told you before that once she gives birth, I'll divorce her and send her away, I promise."And in that moment, it dawned on Alexa that she was truly the subject of their conversation. WTF!She remained momentarily frozen to the spot, her mind spinning with conflicting thoughts as she was struck dumb with disbelief and confusion. She cou

    Oh... you didn’t know." Ivy chimed in as she noticed Alexa's pale and bewildered expression. She snickered. "Clueless idiot."Catherine and Ivy erupted in laughter."You're just a naive fool now, aren’t you?" Ivy asked rhetorically, shaking her head.Alexa felt her heart shatter, a painful constriction tightening within her chest. How could she have been so oblivious? The realization stung, and she could no longer suppress the tears that welled in her eyes, leading her to sob uncontrollably. She couldn't believe any of this was truly happening to her. What had she done to deserve this?"You know what would be best for everyone now?" Ivy started coldly, ignoring Alexa's emotional state. "You should leave this house and never return. Nobody wants you here. You can go back to your wretched family abroad. Oh, wait... They disowned you, didn’t they? Ha!" Ivy chuckled mockingly, and Catherine smirked, her menacing eyes fixed on Alexa."My family is not wretched," Alexa defended amidst tears

    This is unacceptable, Alexander. Your father and I do not support your decision! You cannot marry that man!" 'You are marrying Jordan Salvador? The cold-hearted son of the callous Salvador family? Oh my.''He will break your heart, Alexa. Please, don't do this.''Alexa, do not proceed with this marriage!''You're seriously quitting your job because of him too? You're a finished woman.''I, Gregory McKenna, hereby disown and reject you, Alexander, as the heir to the McKenna fortune and as my daughter.' 'And I, simply Alexander, accept your rejection.''The only reason I haven't divorced you yet is because of the child you're carrying inside of you.'...Alexa's eyes fluttered open slightly as the disjointed echoes of her past disrupted her sleep and gradually pulled her back to consciousness. She blinked weakly, remaining still on the bed as she struggled to gather her thoughts, squinting at the unfamiliar, pristine white ceiling above her. As memories of recent events replayed in h

    Baby, now she's out of our lives for good, I am so elated. We can finally get married, Jordan." Luciana exclaimed, a radiant smile lighting up her face as she gently caressed Jordan's cheek, staring into his troubled emerald orbs. Despite Jordan's efforts to mask his unease, Luciana could see the worry behind the faint smile he wore. Nevertheless, she felt unconcerned; Jordan was sorely hers now. That was all she cared about. Jordan merely murmured a response to Luciana as his mind was consumed with several thoughts and emotions. For some reason, he couldn't comprehend the guilt pangs that tugged at his heartstrings each time he acknowledged that Alexa was truly gone. He didn't know where she had gone to or where she was, but it had been weeks since he last saw her. And that was the day she had left home and suffered a miscarriage in the hospital. He had wanted to..."Jordan!" Luciana's firm voice cut through his reverie, pulling his dazed gaze back to her. She frowned when their eye

    >>FOUR YEARS LATERSeated comfortably in a plush swivel chair, a man exuded a cold aura as continued to gaze at the photo in his hand. His emerald orbs remained fixed on it as he felt his heart prick him painfully, taking in the features of the lady in the picture. She was a young woman with long auburn hair that perfectly complemented her hazel eyes. Her genuine smile radiating through the picture filled the man's heart with warmth. He missed her. He missed the woman in the photo terribly. This man was no other person than Jordan Salvador, and the woman in the picture was no other than his beautiful ex-wife, Alexander McKenna. Jordan continued gazing at the picture regretfully as he felt as though his heart was being stabbed with a sharp knife, replaying the wrong deeds he had done Alexa four years ago. He regretted everything. He wished he could turn back the hands of the clock and prevent it all from happening in the first place. Though he had been searching all over the country f

    As the days rolled into weeks, Jordan came to realize that the supposed feelings he thought he never had for Alexa were only intensifying with each passing minute. He found himself missing her presence more than usual. Sometimes, while resting in his cell after lunch or dinner, he would often reminisce about their last moments together. How he had flirted with her and how he had also made her pissed. Jordan would chuckle to himself each time he recalled how Alexa always cursed at him in annoyance.His heart fluttered with warmth as his mind solely revolved around the thoughts of her. Jordan was impressed by the way she tended to him fiercely. She had grown so bold and daring, and it excited him.Jordan didn't realize he was grinning from ear to ear until his cellmate called out to him abruptly."What's got you all giggling? Thinking about a woman, I see?" His cellmate chimed in, his voice breaking Jordan's reverie.Jordan's smile instantly dissipated, his expression faltering to a ne

    Luciana ruffled her disheveled hair as she headed towards the kitchen in her mansion that morning. It was merely six minutes past 6 am. She wasn't normally a morning person but she had gotten up so early this morning because she had battled with insomnia the night prior. She hadn't been able to sleep a wink as Raven's warnings kept pondering in her mind persistently, reminding her that a bitch was on the loose and she needed to take action. Of course, that bitch was no one else but Alexa. 'Why do you mean Alexa came by your office?' Luciana recalled her previous conversation with Raven on the phone as she awaited her mug to be filled up with coffee. 'What the hell do you think I mean by that? She came asking questions.' Luciana remembered how her heart had leaped after hearing that. 'What questions?' she had asked. 'Questions about Jordan! Questions about myself too!' Raven had barked in response. Pain still tugged at Luciana's heartstrings as she reabsorbed Raven's annoyed re

    Alexa swung the door to her room open, heading straight to the dressing section at the other end upon entering. There, she sat on the chair in front of the mirror, observing her reflection while she reflected on the day's encounter. 'I miss you' Jordan's confession echoed in her mind as she remained seated, pondering her thoughts. Her heart plummeted, recalling the way he had said it to her... So boldly and undeterred. However, Alexa tried pushing aside the thoughts of him, not understanding why she was even thinking about him. She attempted to distract herself as she styled her hair into a bun. Nonetheless, he wouldn't get off her mind. The image of his charming smile was engraved in her memory and she found it difficult to ignore.Giving up on the distractions, Alexa sighed and reclined in her seat, knowing there was nothing else she could do about her feelings. She had been ignoring the pangs for too long and it was starting to get intense. However, Alexa struggled to comprehen

    "... I miss you," He confessed, his voice dripping with affection as he held her gaze.Absorbing his words, Alexa was stunned to silence for a minute. She stared at him, her gaze faltering due to her racing heart. She felt a lump in her throat as a whirlpool of emotions washed over her. That was the last thing she had expected he'd say to her out of the blue. She was both fazed and somewhat emotional.Regaining her composure, her demeanor shifted as she reminded herself about who she was dealing with. It was the same man, who had left her to a cruel fate... Who didn't even look for her after she got discharged from the hospital... Who had betrayed her and given his mistress everything she'd ever wanted. It was the same man, and his name was Jordan Salvador, the one who was currently sitting across from her.Absorbing these resolves, Alexa felt anger brew within her. How dare he lie to her? She huffed at him irritably, her orbs sparkling with annoyance. "You miss me? What the fuck mak

    Rendered speechless, Alexa stared at him for a moment as she pondered her thoughts.Jordan maintained his intent gaze on her, awaiting her response to his inquiry. He sensed something was amiss, given the way Alexa had asked him that so randomly. Of course, he recalled who Raven Hardin was. She was the wife of his billionaire friend, more like a colleague since they didn't have a close relationship. Jordan had only encountered Raven once or twice and it was because of Luciana, who had introduced Raven to him some time ago as the secretary of her fancy club. Jordan hadn't really thought much about the lady since then, but he saw her on TV occasionally. He was aware she was a societal woman, but what he couldn't comprehend as several questions gnawed at him was the reason Alexa was asking about her.Judging by her countenance, He could tell she had uncovered something, but she was reluctant to share it with him. However, he remained calm as he didn't want to coerce her into quelling hi
