The heat of the moment continued in the car. Lily and Lucas were still at it, making out intensely. They did not care about the driver, but thankfully, the poor guy's eyes were on the road. With Lucas kissing her hungrily, Lily felt like her lips had swollen. The driver must have felt the urgency of the situation that he sped the moment they entered the private community that belonged to Lucas and his siblings. As soon as they arrived at the mansion, the car skidded to a stop. Lucas and Lily hurriedly got out of the vehicle. Lily ran up to the door first. She opened the door just in time for Lucas to catch up with her. He immediately carried her weight, lifting her so her legs automatically wrapped around his waist. Lucas forced Lily against the wall. He pushed his entire body onto her frame, kissing her wildly while he ground against her. When Lucas firmly tugged on her jacket, Lily pulled away and complained, "No, no. This is Versache." "Sweetheart, I can buy you more of

"We will have to figure out a way to get to the hotel safely, to securely travel to the city's municipal office, to drive to the site location, then visit the hospital to see the affected workers, and go back, possibly without being detected," Lily said while studying a map of Koplin City with Gunner. A hiss left Lily's lips. She said, "This is difficult." "That is so many trips for someone being targeted," Gunner remarked. "We need as much help as we can get," Lily declared. "That's why I have coordinated with the military and local authorities, but we can't always rely on them. We have to have our own men." "I have already instructed our people from the Black Hawk to secure the hotel first," Gunner said. "I have asked for twenty contractors." Lily nodded. She said, "That should be enough. I will bring six of Lucas' existing bodyguards." While Lily and Gunner were planning the visit to Koplin City, Ryan and Lucas met in the study. "Maybe I should go with you. You will leave
Gone Too Long, The CEO Becomes A World-Class Doting Husband Chapter 68: Axel Is Awake
Back in Rose Hills, Axel was humming in his sleep. Flashes of his memories came to him in a dream. He witnessed his younger self undergoing military training and recalled the immense joy upon discovering he would graduate. To Axel, the military wasn't just a source of stability; it also allowed him to explore different cultures. Beyond that, it gave him a structured environment and a profound sense of purpose. Axel's eyes flinched, seeing an image of him leaving for his first deployment. It was the first time he lost a friend. In that dream, he relieved the challenges of serving his country. He remembered feeling hurt but was too angry to dwell on the pain. He recognized belonging to a brotherhood that would always have his back. The bonds formed through shared experiences and facing challenges together created lifelong friendships. This was true, even within the Alpha Vipers. At the thought of Alpha Vipers, Axel felt goosebumps all over. He saw the faces that mattered to him. To

"Again, we are sorry for your loss, Misses Gomez. We know this will never replace your husband's life, but I could at least ensure that you and your children will live comfortably," Lucas said while giving Misses Gomez a ten-million-dollar check. He also presented a certificate to the woman, granting two of her children a college scholarship at the University of Koplin. The settlement for the workers who died was held within Koplin Intercontinental Hotel's first conference room. Each affected family was given time to express their frustration about the accident. Lucas wanted to ensure he didn't just pay them but also let them know he was willing to listen. More than just the compensation, he earnestly wished to show that he was sincerely sorry for the death of their beloved. Each family has different needs, so Lucas tried to customize the settlement accordingly. His lawyers repeatedly drafted one contract to another, according to the family member's satisfaction. At the end of that

On the freeway, there was an eerie calm before the storm. Commuters were unaware of the impending danger should they put their noses where they did not belong. Inside a black pickup truck, Bane waited impatiently, his eyes narrowing at the Lexus car ahead. "Sir, the first car in Mister Thompson's caravan had collided with the teenager's car we had paid off. The exit to the Koplin Intercontinental Hotel has been blocked. It looks like the middle car is in a panic and is driving a hundred kilometers per hour," one of Bane's men reported. A more sinister laugh escaped Bane's lips. He turned off the safety of his handgun and said, "There is no running away from me, Lucas. I'm going to catch you tonight and make you pay!" He glared at the driver and said, "Hurry up!" "Yes, Sir!" The driver stepped on the gas, and a chase ensued. "They know we are after them. Lucas, you think they can run, but there is no escaping me now!" Bane laughed at the desperation of Lucas' men. Whoever was

A sudden sharp, shattering sound pierced the stillness of the night. It sounded like a window; a large expanse had exploded within the hotel suite. Lily gasped awake and found herself staring into the dark. She whispered while pushing Lucas awake, "The lights are out." She heard that audible click coming from Lucas's handgun, which meant he was turning off his safety. Lily also searched beneath her pillows and found her own Glock 22 pistol. "You wait here. I'll check it out," Lucas said protectively. Who was he kidding? Lily got off the bed before him and whispered, "No, you wait here. I'm your bodyguard, remember?" In the end, they walked barefoot to their bedroom door and slowly opened it, their pupils dilating and adjusting through the dark. Hours after the attack on the freeway, Lily and Lucas decided to get a little rest. They have already scheduled to depart from Koplin in the morning, leaving the investigation of the collapsed building in the hands of the structural fore

"No, you say your last prayers." The voice was oddly familiar, and before Lucas knew it, the man with tattoos took a blow to the head, causing him to collapse on the floor and falling unconscious. Lucas looked back in the same direction and saw Axel. He said, "Looks like you need a hand there, buddy." "Lily!" Those were Lucas' first words, and his head snapped toward his wife. Axel seemed to understand what Lucas meant. He held his gun up and shot the first man who was standing close to Lily. Axel hit the unknown man in the shoulder, and he also fired at the other man, but the latter jumped to the nearest cover. Seeing Axel, Bane yelled, "Axel Green! You come back from the dead!" In a blink of an eye, Bane took Axel by surprise. He threw Lily in his direction, and she fell on top of Axel, his gun flying in an unknown direction. They toppled to the floor, leaving it up to Lucas to protect his wife. With Bane preparing to attack Lily and Axel, Lucas jumped. He put a distance be

"How is she?" "She is holding up. The trauma caused her to faint. She had a few blows to the head during the attack. She had a grade 1 bleeding, but it will heal on its own." "Does Aiden know?" "I told him that his mommy got hurt and needs time to heal, but I haven't told him the degree of the situation. I did not want him to panic." Lily heard voices around her. The thought of Aiden potentially worrying over her forced Lily to fight the drowsiness. She called, "Lucas." "Lily," Lucas responded. Lily immediately felt her husband's firm hand grip around her. He pecked her knuckles repeatedly, saying, "Thank goodness you are awake. How are you feeling?" "Lily," another voice came through, and she immediately recognized it as her brother. Turning to the other side of the bed, she gasped, saying, "Liam." "I need water," she said under her breath. "My throat feels so dry." Lucas was quick to help her up. Liam gave her some water, and she slowly drank it. After quenching her thirst,

Gone Too Long, The CEO Becomes A World-Class Doting Husband Author's Announcement (March 2, 2024)
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
Gone Too Long, The CEO Becomes A World-Class Doting Husband Chapter 139: Marcus' Confession
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
