EX-HUSBAND'S REGRET: "Mommy, please forgive Daddy." 140
Jordan had just finished a meeting with the board members and returned from his grandfather's office when he decided to go visit Alexa. He had been wanting to do that for some time now, but work made him keep deviating from his goal. On this day, he had already resolved that he would go visit her no matter what. It had already been a week since he last saw her and he couldn't shake off the hollow feeling in her chest that was evidence enough for him that he truly missed her. He wanted to see her again.He had barely been able to keep his concentration earlier while he presented his project idea to the board members. It wasn't easy but he had coerced himself to remain composed. With each passing day, he realized his feelings for Alexa were only getting stronger. He couldn't place it but he knew he wanted her. That was, after all, the reason he had been searching for her for three years before he got arrested. He recalled the day of his arrest when his aide had just broken the bad ne

It didn't take long before her response flowed through the walls to his ears, but Jordan couldn't help but catch the annoyance in her tone as she said something incoherent to his hearing.Nonetheless, he expelled a deep sigh, trying to calm his nerves before he twisted the doorknob, pushed the door gently, and entered.The first thing that caught his eye was Alexa, who was sitting at the other end of the room, her eyes dilating with surprise as they locked eyes. Jordan anticipated that. Of course, she'd be stunned to see him. That gave him a bit of confidence as he closed the door behind him and began approaching her side boldly.A taunting smile spread across his face as he greeted her teasingly, amused to witness her stunned expression. "Hello, baby,"Her expression faltered before she asked skeptically. "Jordan?" Her brows furrowed. "What are you doing here?"Wasn't it obvious? Jordan questioned himself, registering her inquiry as absurd. The flowers. The pet name he had just calle

The tension in the room escalated as an overwhelming silence settled between them. Alexa reeled with the shock of seeing Tyler abruptly barge into her office. Fuck, this was exactly what she had been trying to avoid. It had finally happened and the two men had met. How was she to explain this to Tyler? Bile rose to Alexa's throat as she looked between Tyler and Jordan. Her heart raced with trepidation as she noted the confusion in Tyler's face. Of course, he was surprised to find Jordan in her office. It was strange enough that the convict she had once apprehended had paid her a visit."Do I know you?" Tyler was the first to break the silence as he corked his brow at Jordan.Jordan huffed, "I don't know... Do you?" His response was curt, causing Alexa's heart to sink even further.Gosh, there he was again, acting all arrogant. She refrained from rolling her eyes as she knew she had bigger matters to tend to. She needed to intervene somehow before the whole thing escalated.Swallowing

Three days had passed since Jordan's visit to Alexa's office, where he had encountered a strange man, whose thoughts had been swirling his mind for days now.Jordan still hadn't been able to fathom who the man who he had seen at Alexa's office the other day, was. His heart pricked him painfully each time he recalled the man had brought Alexa lunch. Jordan hadn't missed the way he had regarded him with skepticism and curiosity, and this plagued his heart even more. Who was he and why had he acted so possessive of Alexa? Was he Alexa's boyfriend? He pondered.He heaved a sigh as he reclined back in his chair at the office. His mind raced with conflicting thoughts and he struggled to make sense of anything for a moment. Sitting straighter on the chair due to unease, he reached for his phone on the desk, hoping a message from his aide would have popped on it by now. Plagued with the curiosity of who the strange man was, Jordan had instructed his aide to look into him and send him signif

Henry smirked as he shrugged nonchalantly before advancing in firm strides toward Jordan's desk. A mirthless chuckle rumbled out of him as he stared at Jordan, whose eyes were filled with nothing but hatred."To congratulate you, of course, your idea was approved by the board. Well done,""I don't need your congratulations," Jordan cut him off, his tone filled with contempt. "Get the fuck out of my office,""Relax, brother..." Henry furrowed his brows. "Why in a haste to chase me out?""Chase you out?" Jordan scoffed and shook his head incredulously. Leaning back in his chair, his gaze peered at Henry as he accessed him with a cold demeanor. "Don't think I don't know what you did.""What are you talking about?" Henry asked naively. "What did I do?""You really think you can remove me by framing me for a crime I didn't commit?" Jordan asked, a huff escaping his nostrils as he shook his head with amusement. "You should have known better brother. I thought you were smarter than this,""

Jordan's emotions were all over the place as he swerved his car onto the road, his heart racing wildly as the car speed accelerated. He was fazed. Luciana's confession gnawed at him and had left him reeling with disbelief. Each time he recalled what she had said to him about her being the one who had saved him and not Alexa, his heart pricked him with anguish.He didn't believe her. And that was the reason he was currently on the road, heading towards Alexa's home to ask for the truth. He knew Luciana was manipulative as fuck, and he didn't want to fall victim to her lies for the second time. He needed to know the truth. If that had truly happened as she claimed, why hadn't Alexa mentioned anything to him about it?Luciana had left his office merely an hour ago after stating what she wanted in return for what she did for me; a chance at reconciliation. She wanted them to become a family again. Jordan knew that wasn't happening. He loathed her with every fiber of his being, and the rum

Alexa's heart sank as she watched Jordan introduce himself to the kids. There was something about his boldness that had her heart skipped a beat. She was stunned into silence, her eyes growing wide with disbelief. But before she could regain her composure and act, it was nearly too late. She noticed the kids were enthusiastic about the stranger who had introduced himself as their dad."Are you really our Daddy?" The male twin asked, regarding Jordan with excitement. Jordan nodded curtly, a smile spreading across his face as he handed him a small gift box, which the male twin collected from him eagerly."Yes, love. You can ask your Mommy," He heaved a sigh, stealing a glance at Alexa, who was still dumbstruck before he turned to the kids again and continued. "I left before, but I'm back. I'm back for you all.""Where did you go before?" Blair's brows creased with puzzlement and Jordan couldn't help but smile at her softly."I made a mistake, my dear. But I'm back to make amends. Will

Fortunately for Alexa, Elena intervened just right in time."Alright, kids, spare Mommy a break... Come on, dinner is ready," Elena announced as she encouraged the kids to leave their mother alone.At the mention of dinner, the twins giggled happily and rushed over to Elena, who eventually led them to the kitchen, where dinner was served.Alexa let out an exasperated sigh, clutching her chest gently as she thanked her stars for Elena's interjection. She didn't know how else she would have responded to her kids' inquiry. Taking a moment to catch her breath, she ran a hand through her hair. She contemplated her thoughts for a moment before a realization dawned on her, causing her to move from the door as she peered her gaze through the spy hole to check if Jordan was still outside her house.To her surprise, she noticed he was already strolling towards his car parked on the other side of the road. Withdrawing from the door, she sighed, her racing heart slowly calming. She couldn't com

"Jordan!" Alexa exclaimed with terror as Jordan seized Tyler up, ready to punch him across the face again but Alexa quickly tugged at his arm, halting him effectively. "Stop it, stop it, please," she cried out, gripping Jordan's arm tightly.Jordan seethed with rage as he glared at Tyler, whose nostrils were now trickling with blood. He could barely control his raging emotions as all he wanted at that moment was to teach Tyler a lesson for calling Alexa a 'whore.' How dare he?"Jordan, please, stop it. Let him go," Alexa's pleas sailed into his ears, causing his heart to ache. He reluctantly loosened his hold on Tyler's collar at Alexa's order. Jordan was pissed off. "He doesn't deserve you, Alexa,""I know, still let him go, Jordan. Let him go right now," she asserted firmly, her heart twisting with anguish. Gosh, she hated this. She had tried her best to avoid this drama but she guessed she failed in doing so. Acutely aware this wasn't the time to berate herself as she had two me

An overwhelming feeling of shock and bewilderment coursed through Alexa as she met Tyler's furious gaze. Tyler had just barged into her office unannounced and his demeanor screamed of nothing but pure anger. "T-Ty," Alexa stuttered, prompting Jordan to turn to face the man who had just entered.The two men locked eyes in a heated gaze until Tyler started with a snap. "Really, Alexa?" He shook his head with disbelief. "Really?"Even though she couldn't comprehend what he meant by that, her heart raced wildly as she absorbed his indifference. He looked miffed and with the way he glared at Jordan, Alexa didn't need a soothsayer to tell her that Tyler must have found out the truth somehow. But how come? It wasn't supposed to be like this. She had planned to tell him herself. No, no, this was bad."Ty," She called out to him frantically as she pulled out of her thoughts. Her eyes held remorse as they met his gaze. "What is the matter?" She asked skeptically, trying not to believe he had

Tyler Sterling recoiled from his desk as he watched the news of Luciana's arrest. His brows creased with a frown, seeing the offense Luciana had been apprehended of. He was familiar with the woman. He remembered she had paid him a visit just two days before her arrest, to inform him that Alexa was cheating on him with someone else. Tyler had brushed her off, registering her words as absurd. Even though he hadn't confronted Alexa yet as she had been very busy with work, Tyler still trusted her completely. He believed Alexa wasn't capable of doing that. And even though they weren't really in a real relationship yet, he knew the feelings Alexa harbored for him.As Jordan continued watching the news on TV concerning Luciana's arrest and her downfall, he couldn't help but notice the man with Alexa behind the scenes. He flinched as he recognized him to be Jordan Salvador, the same man he had been noticing with Alexa and also the one Luciana had cited Alexa was cheating on him with.Tyler's

With Jordan as the new head of the company, he was able to apprehend Luciana on time with Alexa's help."Dear Miss Henderson, you're under arrest for the setup of Jordan Salvador. You have the right to remain silent, as anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney..." The police officers who had arrested Jordan before now, said to Luciana as they secured the cuffs around her wrists.Luciana's face was etched with horror as she looked from the officers to Jordan and Alexa who had led her arrest. Alexa smirked smugly, while Jordan shook his head in disappointment as he met Luciana's gaze."I will ensure you rot in prison for this, Luciana. That is a promise." Jordan said to her callously, his eyes darkening with rage. "Take her away and lock her up."Luciana was fazed. She hadn't expected they would arrest her. She believed they were still clueless that she was the one who had framed Jordan. It seemed she had thought wrong.Des

Luciana had just gotten off the phone with Raven and her eyes blazed with fury as she grappled with the reality of what had happened. Raven had just informed her about Alexa's visit to her office.Annoyance coursed through Luciana as she pondered her thoughts, unable to fathom what had led Alexa to restart the investigation. She thought everything had ended with Jordan's release, how come Alexa was still prying into her privacy and trying to look into matters that didn't concern her?Luciana's insides coursed with a bit of relief as she reflected on Raven's assurance. "I didn't tell her anything. But you need to do something about this."Luciana had reassured Raven that she was going to handle it but at that moment, she couldn't think of anything else. Well, maybe it was time to finally expose Alexa's secrets to the firm and get her fired? Luciana pondered. Only then will Alexa be able to back off from the investigation as it was no longer an official case? But why had she restarted

Alexa still couldn't understand why she had agreed to help Jordan as she headed towards the Hardins' corporation, the company Raven Hardin owned. But one thing she knew for certain was that she would ensure justice was served accordingly. Even though Jordan didn't deserve that act of kindness from her, it was her duty and maybe Jordan didn't really deserve to go through what he had been through because of Luciana. Alexa marched her way toward Raven's office unannounced after passing a security check. She had shown them her ID and they had quickly let her in, recognizing her significant status.Now standing before Raven's office, Alexa swallowed hard before knocking on the door gently. She had come prepared. She didn't feel daunted like last time as she had done a proper investigation on Raven. Alexa was aware of Raven's secrets, including her private affairs with the men Raven cheated on her husband with. She had come to discover this when a young man had reached out to her two days

Alexa's expression gave nothing away as she observed Jordan strut towards her desk. She noticed the file that was in his hand and her curiosity spiked. Brushing it off, her gaze returned to his face, before trailing downward to notice he was clad in a black business suit with his hair all slicked back. He looked charming, and his appearance made her flutter pleasantly, but she refused to show him that.A pang of thrill coursed through her to have him in her office. However, her expression remained stoic as she demanded what he wanted.Jordan smirked at her before taking a seat. Alexa huffed at his audacity and shook her head. "What are you doing here, Jordan? I thought I already warned you never to come back here." She stated tersely, her voice carrying no trace of emotion.Jordan shrugged. "It's not my fault I can't stop thinking about you, Alexa McKanne." He said earnestly, his words causing Alexa's heart to race inexplicably. She swallowed slightly, her eyes narrowing at him. She
