Several hours passed as Alex scoured the internet for the perfect venue for his date with Ashley. After much searching, he finally found an expensive and romantic location that he knew would impress her. Feeling proud of himself for finding such a great place, Alex lay in bed and slowly drifted off to sleep. As he closed his eyes, he couldn't help but imagine how the date would go, picturing every detail in his mind. He hoped that everything would go smoothly and that Ashley would have a great time with him. With these thoughts in his head, Alex soon fell into a deep and peaceful slumber, eagerly anticipating the upcoming date.****As the morning sun shone into Ashley's room, she groggily checked the time on her clock and realized that it was already past 9 am."I'm late!" Ashley exclaimed, jumping out of bed. "How could I have slept so long?" she asked herself as she rushed to the bathroom to take a quick shower. After getting ready, Ashley headed out to a meeting with a company.Af
Ashley took out her credit card and paid for the dress with a smile. She felt grateful to have found such a beautiful dress and couldn't wait to show it off to Alex. Ashley turned to Larisa after paying for the dress. "I need a pair of heels to go with this dress," she said."Absolutely, a perfect dress needs the perfect heels," Larisa replied with a smile."You're right," Ashley said, feeling grateful for Larisa's fashion expertise."Let's head to the heels section. I'm loving this place," Larisa said, leading the way."That's why it's the hottest shopping mall these days," Ashley said, following closely behind.As they reached the heels section, Ashley and Larisa began browsing through the racks of shoes, trying on different pairs to find the perfect match for the dress. After several minutes of searching and trying on shoes, they finally found the perfect pair of heels. Ashley kept smiling" I just can't wait," Ashley said couldn't wait to wear them with her new dress and feel con
After spending a lovely afternoon chatting with Larisa and her family, Ashley arrived back at her apartment at 5 pm. She kicked off her shoes and collapsed onto her bed, feeling a little tired from all the socializing.As she lay there for about 30 minutes, scrolling through her phone and catching up on social media, she realized that she needed to start getting ready for her date. With a sigh, she got up from the bed and made her way to the bathroom.The warm water from the shower felt invigorating as it cascaded down Ashley's body, washing away the fatigue from the day. She took her time, enjoying the sensation and letting her mind wander as she mentally prepared for her date.After luxuriating in the warm shower, Ashley emerged from the bathroom wrapped in a fluffy towel, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. She made her way over to her closet and carefully selected the new dress and heels she had purchased at New Huxley's Shopping Mall earlier that day.Slipping into the dress, she
Alex waited for her to emerge. As she stepped out of the building, Alex's heart skipped a beat, struck once again by her beauty and elegance."Good evening, Ashley," he said, stepping out of the car and offering her his hand."Good evening, Alex," she replied, taking his hand and climbing into the passenger seat. "This car is amazing."Alex smiled, feeling proud of his choice. "I'm glad you like it. Shall we go?" he asked, before zooming off into the night once again, the car's powerful engine propelling them towards their destination.After a long and exhilarating drive, Alex and Ashley finally arrived at their destination, the Royal Palace Restaurant. As Alex helped Ashley out of the car, she was struck by the sheer grandeur of the building and its impeccable design and decor."Wow, Alex, this place is amazing," Ashley exclaimed, her eyes wide with wonder.Alex smiled, happy to see her so impressed. "I'm glad you like it. I wanted to take you somewhere special tonight."Taking her h
As they chatted about Larisa, Ashley suddenly looked up at Alex with a questioning expression."Alex, can I ask you something?" she said, her voice curious."Sure, what is it?" Alex replied, his eyes meeting hers."I was just wondering," Ashley began, "were you asking about Larisa just out of curiosity, or did Marcellus ask you to ask me?"Alex's smile faltered slightly at her question, and he hesitated before answering. "Actually, Marcellus did ask me to ask you," he admitted, his voice trailing off.As Alex admitted that Marcellus had asked him to inquire about Larisa, Ashley's expression softened. She let out a small laugh and shook her head."I knew it," she said, a playful glint in her eye. "Marcellus can be so nosy sometimes."As Ashley teased Alex about Marcellus's nosiness, he felt a pang of guilt in his chest. He knew that Marcellus still harbored feelings for Larisa, even after their four-year divorce. But he couldn't deny the attraction he felt towards Ashley, and he wanted
Marcellus awoke to the warm rays of sunshine and the sound of birds chirping in the trees outside his mansion. As he stood up, he heard a faint knock on his door. "Come in," he called out.The door creaked open, revealing his chief maid, Mrs. Mary. "Good morning, Marcellus. Your breakfast is ready," she said with a warm smile.Marcellus nodded in appreciation. "Thank you, Mrs. Mary. I'll be down in a few minutes."As Mrs. Mary left the room, Marcellus stretched and made his way downstairs to the dining room. The aroma of freshly cooked food wafted through the air, making his stomach growl with hunger.As he sat down to eat, he savored every bite of the delicious meal that Mrs. Mary had prepared for him. "This is fantastic, Mrs. Mary. You outdid yourself this morning," he complimented her.Mrs. Mary beamed with pride. "I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Marcellus. It's always a pleasure to cook for you."Marcellus finished his meal and thanked Mrs. Mary once again before heading to his room.
After much contemplation, Ashley couldn't decide whether or not to pursue a relationship with Alex. Feeling overwhelmed, she took out her phone and dialed Larisa's number, hoping to gain some clarity on the situation. After a few rings, Larisa picked up."Hey Ashley, what's up?" Larisa asked."I'm good, thanks. How about you?" Ashley replied."I'm doing well, thanks. So, how was your date with Alex yesterday?" Larisa inquired.Ashley's face lit up as she thought back to the romantic evening. "It was amazing. He looked so handsome, and the restaurant was like heaven. We had the best time," she gushed.Larisa smiled. "That's great to hear. Did he pop any questions?" she asked.Ashley chuckled lightly, feeling a sense of nervousness rising within her. "Yes, he did. He asked me to be his girlfriend," she admitted.Larisa's eyes widened with excitement. "Wow, I knew it! So, what did you say?" she asked eagerly."I told him he's a nice guy, but that I need some time to think about it," Ashl
As Ashley continued her story, Larisa listened in shock, her mind racing with the implications of what she was hearing."Alex asked for your new contact, but I told him I couldn't give it to him. Then he asked me where you were, and that's when I made the mistake of telling him that you were on your way to the airport," Ashley said, her voice trembling.Larisa's eyes widened in horror. "What? Why would you do that?""I don't know, Larisa. I was caught off guard, and I didn't think it through," Ashley replied, her voice filled with regret.Larisa could feel her heart pounding in her chest. "What happened next?" she asked, fearing the worst."Alex must have told Marcellus, and he rushed to the airport to stop you. But on his way there, his car was hit by a truck at an intersection," Ashley said, her voice barely above a whisper.Larisa gasped, her hand flying to her mouth in disbelief. "No, that can't be true," she said, her voice shaking."I'm sorry, Larisa. It's the truth. Marcellus w
As onlookers rushed to the scene, calling for emergency services, Mr. Madison's driver cradled Waylen in his arms, his heart racing with fear and anxiety. Looking down at the child, he knew that he had to stay strong for him, to protect him from the chaos and confusion that surrounded them.The emergency services arrived on the scene within a matter of minutes, their vehicles screeching to a halt as they rushed to assess the situation. As they quickly surveyed the wreckage, their experienced eyes taking in the extent of the damage, they were met with a sight that filled them with a deep sense of sorrow and regret.Clara, who had been driving the car when it was struck with such force, was found to be unresponsive by the paramedics who had arrived on the scene. Despite their best efforts to revive her, they were forced to conclude that she had passed away as a result of the accident. With heavy hearts, they covered her lifeless body and carefully placed her in the emergency vehicle, th
Amelia sat back in her chair, her mind racing with thoughts. She knew how much Clara had cared for Marcellus and how devastated she would be upon hearing this news. " I think Larisa was pregnant before she left four years ago," Amelia said."I thought so too," Clara said. " Am going to make their life miserable" she swore again.****Early the following morning, Clara made her way out of her residence and embarked on a journey toward Larisa's dwelling. The reason for her visit was due to the fact that she had tracked Larisa and Marcellus the previous night after their luxurious dinner at the highly acclaimed five-star restaurant, leading her to believe that Larisa's home was a likely destination. With a clear objective in mind, Clara navigated the roads with a determined focus, her thoughts consumed by the task that lay ahead.After patiently waiting until Larisa had taken Waylen to school, Clara proceeded to discreetly follow her to the school's location. Upon reaching the school pre
Marcellus' body was a testament to his strength and power, but at this moment, he was gentle and loving, his every movement focused on bringing Larisa pleasure and joy. As he entered her slowly and deliberately, she gasped with pleasure, her body responding to his with an intensity that left her feeling alive and vibrant.Their bodies moved together in a beautiful dance of love and passion, every moment taking them closer to the brink of ecstasy. They kissed and caressed each other, their bodies moving in perfect harmony as they reached the pinnacle of their desire, their hearts and souls joined together in a beautiful moment of pure, unbridled love.Afterward, as they lay together, wrapped in each other's arms, they knew that they were meant to be together, forever and always. Their love was a beautiful thing, a light that shone brightly in the darkness, bringing warmth and joy to all who saw it. And at that moment, they knew that they had found their home, their sanctuary, their pla
Marcellus nodded, scanning through the documents with a keen eye. He had a reputation for being a tough but fair boss, and he was determined to ensure that the company continued to thrive under his leadership.As the day wore on, Marcellus worked tirelessly alongside Michael, attending various meetings and making important decisions. The familiar rhythm of work and the satisfaction of a job well done filled him with a sense of purpose and accomplishment. A WEEK LATERAfter a week of being back at work, Marcellus had caught up on the previous month's schedule and brought everything back up to a healthy pace. It was Saturday, and he had decided to take a break from work and spend some quality time with his family.Throughout the week, Marcellus had made a point of keeping in touch with Larisa and their son, Waylen. He called them daily to check in and see how they were doing. It was important to him to maintain a strong connection with them, especially after the scare he
Marcellus, Alex, and Charles exchanged knowing smiles as they observed the conversation between Mrs. Huxley and Larisa. It was clear to them what Mrs. Huxley was indirectly asking."Forgive me for being blunt, but what Mrs. Huxley means to ask is if Marcellus will still be able to perform well and impregnate a woman again after just recovering," Alex interjected, breaking the awkward silence that had settled over the room.Larisa nodded, understanding the unspoken question. "Yes," she replied confidently, "Marcellus has fully recovered and there is no reason to suggest that he won't be able to perform as he did before."After a prolonged stay in the hospital, Marcellus was finally discharged with his parents, his friends and him holding his belongings as they walked out of the hospital with Larisa holding Waylen's hand to see them off. The private room he had been occupying for weeks was cleared out. The once sterile space was now devoid of any trace of Marcellus and his personal effe
When they arrived at the hospital, they quickly made their way to the private room where Marcellus was staying. As they walked down the Hallway, Larisa held Waylen's hand reassuringly.Larisa and Waylen reached Marcellus' room and Larisa took a deep breath before asking, "Are you ready, Waylen?" Waylen nodded eagerly.Larisa knocked on the door and they waited for an answer.Marcellus heard the knock and smiled at his parents, "It must be Larisa," he said.Mr. and Mrs. Huxley stood curiously, wondering who else could be with Larisa. Charles and Alex were also intrigued to meet the new visitor."Come in," Marcellus called out.Larisa opened the door and walked inside, with Waylen following behind her. "Good day, everyone," she greeted them warmly."Good day, Larisa," they all replied.Marcellus' parents, Alex, and Charles looked at Waylen with curious eyes. Waylen felt a bit uncomfortable under their stares, but he tried to keep his cool. "Good morning, everyone," he said with a shy sm
Larisa's father spoke up, his voice filled with understanding and compassion. "Larisa, what you did was the right thing. It's high time the father of the child knows, and I hope your wish to be back together with Marcellus and stay together Forever be fulfilled."Larisa felt a wave of gratitude wash over her as she hugged her father. Larisa's mother watched her daughter and husband embrace, shaking her head in disbelief. "I can't believe you're willing to give him another chance after everything he's done," she said aloud. "But I hope it works out for you, Larisa."Larisa turned to her mother with a small smile. "Thank you, Mom. I know it won't be easy, but I love Marcellus and I want to make things work between us."Her mother gave her a skeptical look but nodded her head in understanding. "I understand, Larisa. Just be careful, okay? I don't want to see you get hurt again."Larisa hugged her mother tightly, feeling grateful for her concern. "I will, Mom. Thank you for always looki
Waylen looked up at his dad with a smile on his face. "It's okay, Dad. I forgive you," he said, his words laced with understanding and compassion.Marcellus's eyes filled with tears as he pulled Waylen into a tight embrace, patting him gently on the back. "Thank you, Waylen. I promise I'll do better from now on," he vowed.Larisa watched the scene before her, feeling her heart swell with love and gratitude. She knew it wouldn't be easy, but seeing Marcellus and Waylen come together like this gave her hope for the future. Larisa smiled at the heartwarming reunion before her. Seeing Marcellus and Waylen together for the first time brought a sense of joy and relief to her heart. She had always hoped that one day, they would be able to bond as father and son.Ashley looked on with a soft smile, feeling touched by the moment of reconciliation between father and son. It was a beautiful moment, and she was glad to be a part of it. Ashley watched the interaction between the three of them with
Waylen practically dragged Ashley towards the hospital entrance, his heart beating faster with each step. Ashley followed closely behind, her eyes fixed on Waylen's back, filled with love and concern for the young boy.As they reached the lobby, they could hear the soft murmur of voices and the constant hum of activity. Waylen looked up at Ashley, his eyes gleaming with excitement."Come on, Aunt Ashley, let's go see Mom!" Waylen exclaimed.Ashley smiled back at him and took his hand, guiding him towards the elevator. She tapped the 30th-floor button, and they waited patiently as the elevator ascended.When the doors opened, Waylen couldn't wait any longer. He practically ran out of the elevator, Ashley following closely behind. They walked down the hallway, their footsteps echoing against the sterile walls.Larisa and Marcellus continued their conversation, exchanging jokes and laughter in the comfort of her office.Ashley led Waylen to the front of Larisa's office and opened the doo
