January 27, 2024. Chapter 2-2. Thank you. The next chapter is tomorrow.
Dead air fell upon them following Shauna's outburst. Hearts had probably stopped beating, especially from the side of the Fosters. Shauna was staring at Ted's ghostly white face, and when she glanced at Enzo, his mouth was open. The same could be said with Tiffany. "What?" Finally, Ted recovered. He asked, "Did I hear you wrong?" "You heard me right," Shauna responded. "Axel is my boyfriend!" "Shauna," Axel said behind her. "Words don't hurt me." Axel put his arm around Shauna's waist and stared into Ted Foster's eyes. He asked, "Mister Foster. I wonder what I have done to you to earn your hate. Your daughter is already married, and I have my own life. I only came here because of Tommy." "Dad, I can't believe you did that. Axel and Tiff have broken up a long time ago!" Tommy said before standing in between Shauna and Ted. "Stay out of this, Tommy," Ted warned. "No, this is my house. You stay out of this," Tommy said. "In fact, why don't you go home, Dad?" Unfortunately, Ted
Axel had just bid goodbye to Martha and Abner. His parents took the pick-up truck to town to finalize the tax payment for their land. He knew he had exhausted Shauna last night, so he opted to stay in the house and rest. Axel took out some eggs and a few slices of bread. He was about to cook when he heard a voice calling outside. "Axel? Anyone here? Axel?" He walked back to the porch and was surprised to find Tiffany there. Axel looked around and realized she was alone with a car parked outside. Axel stared at Tiffany, asking, "What brings you here, Tiffany?" "Axel, I need to speak to you," she said. "Speak," Axel said. "If it's about the investment, I can't decide on that. You'll have to speak to Shauna's father -" "I don't care about the investment. I came here to see you," Tiffany replied. "What do you need?" Axel asked. "Is Shauna here?" Tiffany questioned. "She is in bed," Axel replied. Tiffany pursed her lips and asked, "She shares the same bed as you?" "What kind o
Axel and Shauna were kissing impatiently. They were taking off each other's clothes as they took turns leaning against the wall of their assigned room. The second Shauna's bra was off, Axel cupped her breast and sucked it hurriedly. "Oh, god. Mmmm!" A moan left Shauna's lips. Her nipples were always so sensitive to Axel's touch. Even with just his hand, her skin would form goosebumps—all the more with his wet tongue playing with her buds. From left to right, Axel fondled with her chest. When he was satisfied, he immediately shifted her to face the wall. He pulled down her shorts so abruptly that the button plucked out! "Ahh!" Shauna could not help but yelp. Axel lightly bit her ass and then the other. "Spread your legs for me, Shauna," Axel suggested. "Lift your ass." Shauna did as he requested. She lowered her body to raise her hips, her ass facing him. "Shauna, you are perfect in every way," he said. She felt Axel spread her two-round flesh. His hot breath tickled her ro
Ravenbreak. The sun hung high in the cloudless sky, casting a warm golden glow over the expansive meadow. The weather was the perfect balance of warmth and freshness. The meadow, adorned with a vibrant carpet of wildflowers in various hues, offered a picturesque setting for an intimate picnic. In the middle of the field, two frames were on top of each other, lying in a blanket that served as their cushion. Shauna was in a summer dress, riding Axel, achieving her meadow inferno before they would leave town. She and Axel were kissing. His hands were guiding her grinding motion when she felt herself coming undone. "Mmmm," Shauna moaned into Axel's mouth while her body mildly convulsed. She felt her whole body weaken, relaxing into Axel's frame. Thus, he took control by thrusting upward. Of course, he had to finish too. After he came inside of her, they kissed passionately for some time. When they let go, Axel remarked, "Damn, this is definitely a record breaker for us. I can't be
Rose Hills Grand Cathedral was closed for Lucas and Lily’s wedding. The streets within two blocks were closed, and traffic was rerouted. The news outlets called it the biggest wedding in the last three decades. The cathedral’s parking space was packed with luxury cars, similar to the wide streets outside. Black Hawk men and the military served as the security, watching the incoming guests and observing traffic. At four in the afternoon, the sky was bright blue, quite sunny for a late afternoon. The people coming in had smiles, all looking forward to witnessing Lucas and Lily’s upcoming union. The cathedral was massive. It stretched to hundreds of meters, accommodating over a thousand guests. Through the enormous oak doors of the cathedral, the nave extended, its lofty ceiling supported by graceful arches that seemed to soar endlessly upward. Hanging from the ceiling were chandeliers. At the heart of the cathedral lay the altar, bathed in a soft glow of candlelight. Sunlight stre
Lily was still feeling emotional from Lucas’ vows. Beneath her veil, she had wiped the corners of her eyes. She wished she could hug Lucas then and there but knew she had to do her part of the vows. “Are you okay?” Lucas repeatedly rubbed Lily’s arms. Lily chuckled. She raised her palm and replied, “I can do this. I’m just emotional.” She looked down and then at the people around. Her family had nothing but smiles on their faces. Aiden gave her a thumbs up. So, Lily returned her attention to her husband. “Once upon a time, I was just another teenager in love with her best friend,” Lily began. “I read about best friends falling in love with each other, and I used to wish I had a similar ending.” “All those fears were true. I used to be afraid of losing you. I tried to let you know through my actions, give you hints so maybe you would understand, and just maybe, you felt the same way,” Lily described. “Being a teen, I was impatient and thought you preferred another girl. I left f
Lily and Lucas emerged with Aiden through the dividing LED screens, surprising everyone! "Beautiful!" "Wonderful!" This time, Lily had changed into a blue and gleaming wedding dress, and Lucas wore a white suit. Aiden was in a blue suit, held by both Lucas and Lily. The family of three was smiling from ear to ear as they walked out; indoor fireworks guided their path to the center of the venue. Everyone complimented on how amazing their wedding entrance turned out to be. Just when they all thought there was no other surprise, the chorus to the song came, and suddenly, acapella singers in a group of twenty came up behind Lily, Lucas, and Aiden. The newly arrived singers were all dressed in white, and they followed the couple while singing harmoniously with the band, creating a symphony of pure vocal enchantment. Everyone felt goosebumps! The collective resonance of singers' voices made them feel the love pouring into the celebration. The same could be said with the family o
Everyone was so entertained at how Lucas took his time as if searching with no ends under her skirt. Lily's female cousins were asking, "Are you sure Lucas is just looking for the garter or doing something else?" "No, he is seriously having a hard time. I have many layers under my skirt," Lily made an excuse for Lucas. She glanced at her aunt, the same who designed her wedding dress, and confirmed, "Right, Aunt Kate?" "There's a sea of fabric down there; Lucas could be lost by now," remarked Kate, and she, along with Lily's other aunts, burst into laughter. Lucas got out of Lily's skirt eventually, but just when everyone thought he already secured the garter, he wiped his fake sweat on his forehead. Ryan came to Lucas and offered champagne. While Lily laughed, Lucas acted like he was immensely thirsty after having explored under her dress! "There better be nothing going down there, Lucas!" Lewis threatened, and yet again, laughter danced through the air. Seemingly lost under L
Hi Readers, I did not realize until last week that some of you were trying to access The CEO's Ex-Wife Is A Famous Doctor. To those who were wondering, there is a new version of the book with a few chapters of Lucas' story attached. If you are trying to re-read your unlocked chapters, kindly search for the old version in your library. Another option is to go to your profile in the app, go to your wallet, and then check "episodes unlocked." If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions, you can find me on social. It's the best way to make an inquiry because I don't get notifications for reviews or comments. Sincerely, LiLhyz
Dear Beloved Readers, Thank you for supporting me with Lucas and Lily's story. I also appreciate the care and patience you have shown me over the past two weeks. I have a few announcements. So, here it goes. Author's Health. After what happened to my eyes, I realized that I must give time for myself. And it is not just my eyes; I have gained weight. Lol. I blamed it on the holidays, but it's already March. In line with this, I will take it a little slow in my next book, enough for my eyes to rest so they won't get strained from all the screen time. I know you are all used to me delivering two chapters daily on most days, but in the next book, I will probably publish an average of nine to ten chapters per week. I need this badly, so I am asking for your understanding. Note that you can always read at the end of the week or after the book is completed. What book will I publish next? I know you love the Wrights and the Thompsons, but I have been advised to write outside the s
Four years passed. ~"You might have a mom, she might be the bombBut ain't nobody got a mom like mineHer love's 'til the end, she's my best friendAin't nobody got a mom like mine" ~ Dancing to the tune of "Mom" by Meghan Trainor, the children danced in simple steps to appreciate their mommies on Mother's Day. This was a gathering that Amara had organized for the mothers in their family and close friends. The seven-year-olds, Autumn and Maeve, and the four-year-old Ivaan were forming hearts with their fingers, and together with Shauna's and Anna's daughters, they found partners to sway along to the music. Shauna's daughter, Mareese, was nearly seven, while her son, Shawn, was three. While Mareese had Shauna's looks, Shawn was a definite copy of his dad. Shawn was less coordinated with the other kids dancing, and that was because he thought dancing was only for girls. Still, Shauna appreciated her son's efforts. Anna's daughter was dancing with the group too. Ryan and Anna nam
Over three months passed. "Ready for our first round?" Aiden asked with narrowed eyes. "Ready!" Autumn and Maeve said at the same time. His sisters were in the playroom with him, smiling from ear to ear. Earlier, Autumn and Maeve were unhappy because they missed Lucas and Lily. Their mother had been confined for four days since she had another C-section to deliver their baby brother. To cheer them up, Aiden went the extra mile and created a fun activity for them on a Friday afternoon. Together with the caregivers, Aiden cut out large and various shapes in different colors. The mechanics of the game was simple. Aiden would dictate the shape and color, and they would step on it. The highest number of correct answers would be awarded a prize. "Blue star!" Aiden said, and his sisters scrambled to find a blue star and step on it. "Next, an orange circle!" Aiden added. "Green square! Red triangle!" They did not necessarily get all of them. Like how Autumn thought orange was re
Six months passed. Ryan and Anna's wedding was held at The Green Pine Restaurant and Lodge. Around the venue, candles flickered, and soft fabrics moved in the mountain wind, making everything feel magical. The wedding happened under the moonlit sky, and the hills stood in the background, watching as two people joined their lives together. As the celebration extended, the couple had a romantic dance at the end, swaying to the tune of "Lover" by Taylor Swift. Ryan wore a black suit, while Anna wore a mermaid wedding dress. ~ "Can I go where you go?Can we always be this close forever and ever?And ah, take me out, and take me home (forever and ever)You're my, my, my, myLover?" ~ Ryan had a big smile on his face, his eyes glued to his now wife while Anna looked at her husband adoringly, her hands wrapped around his neck. Anna's eyes were gleaming, her red hair adorned with gems tied into a beautiful bun behind her head. Halfway through the song, Anna and Ryan looked around. An
Over one year passed. "Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests, and nature enthusiasts," Axel said while addressing everyone in the crowd. He was standing before a podium and on a makeshift stage. Surrounding him stretched a vast expanse of land adorned with lush green grass, while the venue for the press conference was sheltered by the shade of trees and pines. "A warm welcome to all of you on this glorious day as we gather to celebrate the grand opening of The Green Pine Restaurant and Lodge." Axel smiled as he stared into the eyes of those watching him. He resumed, "Today is a testament to the harmonious blend of nature, hospitality, and my family's love for farming." "This farm resort is a dream realized - a way for us to bring you the countryside and do what we love to do as a family. We, the Greens, love to farm," Axel proudly announced. "Just an hour away from the Rose Hills proper, you can escape the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse yourself in the beauty of
"My feet are killing me," Anna complained after she, Lily, and Shauna went shopping for clothes for the past four hours on a Saturday afternoon. Shauna bought maternity clothes, while Lily and Anna bought clothes for themselves. They all rested on one of the benches inside the mall. Anna and Shauna took both ends of the bench while Lily sat in the middle. Once settled, Lily asked, "Is the baby coming out yet?" The idea of going to the mall was Shauna's. She was already forty weeks pregnant, but she had no signs of going into labor. She thought that strolling around would help. Shauna rested her shopping bags on the floor. She touched her belly and said, "No, I don't feel anything." Suddenly, Anna screamed, "Ouch! Luke! What the -" "Anna, come back with me!" Out of nowhere, Luke appeared, and he grabbed Anna's wrist. Luke did not appear well. His hair was disheveled, and he had dark bags under his eyes. He begged, "Anna, please forgive me." "Luke, what are you doing? Didn't R
### MARCUS' FLASHBACK ### "Hey, Guys! Can I join you?" Kamila said while taking the vacant seat next to Lace. "Looks like our parents have made a huddle of their own." "Of course. They always do that," Lace replied. "We should have a gathering of our own." "I'll go to join Samuel and the others," Amara said, referring to their uncle Sean's second son. "Go," Marcus said. It was always like this during gatherings; they split into different groups. "Let's drink," Kamila proposed with a mischievous smile. Marcus laughed. He looked back, searching for Keith, and when he found Kamila's father having a drink with Evan and their other uncles, he said, "So, that's why you came here." "Yeah, good luck getting a drink when I am near Dad," Kamila remarked, and she laughed. "He does let me drink, but not too much." "I think not too much is okay," Marcus commented, but either way, he asked a food server for another bottle of wine. He winked at Kamila and assured her, "Don't worry, I'll
Louise was celebrating inside. Finally, for the first time, Keith Henderson would see that Kamila wasn't the perfect daughter he had assumed her to be. Since the Hendersons had granted her a scholarship, Louise had seen how easy Kamila's life had always been. She realized that life was so unfair. Here was Kamila, tall and beautiful with long and shiny black hair. She was often the center of attention during their college years, leaving Louise in the backseat. In the past, Louise earnestly appreciated Kamila, but the more she was exposed to how the Hendersons lived, the more she coveted Kamila's life. Louise would have had a chance to live that luxury if only she had been chosen for the management trainee position for Prima MedCare. The problem was that Kamila was in the way of her dreams. It was obvious that Keith Henderson, being the CEO of the insurance company, would prefer to bring in his daughter rather than an outsider. Knowing this, Louise had been trying to find a way t
