It was already twenty minutes past seven and Emma hadn't arrived yet, it wasn't like her to be so late, Michaël knew it. Usually, she always arrived before 7 a.m. so that they could both arrive before the bell for the start of class. He knows Emma well enough to know that she is not the type to arrive late for school; she is far too studious and conscientious for that, which means that she has had a major unforeseen event."Sir, it's late, you should be in high school now.. I'll take you there, I'll come back to get the young lady after.""What if she comes after you start the car?" Above all, learn to meddle in matters that concern you, no matter what time it is, I'll wait for Emma"“Well sir please forgive my inconsiderate intervention”Michael glared at the driver and returned his attention to the way Emma usually arrives. He knows that he was a little too cold with his driver who has been by his side since he was a child. He is the only employee who cares about him but he cannot ac
It had been barely 6 minutes since the driver had offered to wait, but Michaël couldn't take it anymore. How does he know it's been 6 minutes? Well, he had been keeping an eye on his watch while waiting for Emma to arrive.When he saw that after so many minutes, according to him, Emma still hadn't arrived he got up and started to walk towards the interior of the district. His driver sighed, he knew his boss wasn't going to wait those ten minutes so he calmly followed him without a word.The neighborhood as he had pointed out was quite seedy, it was only 8 a.m. but the men in this place, mostly teenagers aged 19-20, were already meeting, smoking, and discussing subjects he knew were trivial. .At their age, they should be going to university or looking for a job to keep busy, but no, they were all there gathered around a kid who plays gang leader and who stares at all the passers-by. threatening manner.He can see the inhabitants of this neighborhood pass in front of them doing their be
“Hey you, what am I getting into? It's none of your business so brooms"The leader of the girl group, Mel had talked about getting agreement from the other girls around her.Michaël had straightened Emma in his arms when she had passed out, he looked at her delicately before throwing a dark look full of hatred at the girls who dared to attack her.His gaze was wild with full promises of mute death which caused Mel and her gang to take a step back in sudden fear at this divinely handsome boy. Mel swallowed heavily before pulling herself together. Why was she afraid? These are the guys who should be scared, she is the sister of the biggest boss in this neighborhood and if he finds out that they dared to challenge her, it will be over for them.She walked over and pointed to Michael at his driver cocking his gun but Michael asked him to put it away which he did. Mel, whose weapon first unseated, regained her composure before clearing her throat."Are you crazy or just suicidal sweetie? Ho
Mr. Burns is a man in his sixties, he had a full life, that's what he could tell himself anyway. His parents were farmers in the countryside not far from the city of Central, his whole childhood and much of his life were lived in this small part of the country. It was peaceful with his sister and his parents, honest citizens who had at heart the love of work and merit.Very early on he started working in the fields helping his parents as best he could, his sister also put her hand to work so as not to feel useless. Since birth, she had never said a word. At first, her parents thought she was behind other children her age. But from the age of three, they had started to really worry and as soon as she had passed the threshold of five years they had been certain that she would never speak.It had the effect of a bomb in the whole village but fortunately, nobody had them to mistreat it because they were a small tight-knit community taking to heart the problems of the others. His sister had
Jeanne arrived at work very early today, at least earlier than usual. But she had no choice her sister is not easy to manage when she becomes so curious which is why she preferred to flee.She knows Emma won't ask about the December schedule, but from the call the day before she's sure her sister wouldn't let her get away with it. Frankly, should she call at this time? She had asked him never to come back, not to bother Emma.In her case, it's been a long time since she no longer considers her as her mother but Emma is fragile, even if she doesn't say it she knows that her little sister has always had this complex of not having a mother, and to whose fault? This woman had been cold enough to abandon a newborn baby in the arms of an 11-year-old without remorse. She walked away coldly without looking back and denied their existence for years until just a few months ago.Frankly, after 16 years she dares to reappear as if nothing had happened and asks to see them again. When she was leavi
Amanda closed her eyes, not everything but that. If Jeanne tells everything that happened 16 years ago, she is sure that her second daughter will hate her as much as the first does now. She can't afford it.Even though she had abandoned them, she never stopped thinking about them even for a second. She knew she had been cruel, but she was afraid to face life after her husband's death and to take care of two children without a job.She knows it's horrible and she will never have reasons or words to excuse her cruelty but she was really scared. To this end, she is proud of Jeanne, she looked like her father, strong and courageous.She had met him when she was only 14 years old and fleeing the bad shots of her father she had moved in with him. He was only 16 too, but they loved each other so much that Jeanne arrived when she was only 15. James had promised her that everything would be fine so she had trusted him and they had been able to pull through.Nine years later when she was 24 and
Jeanne was pissed off, she was even boiling with rage, who could have believed that this woman was the owner of the hotel in which she worked? She couldn't even see her in paint but to imagine that this woman was the one who hired her at least she had been working for her through her administration for over two years, she hates.She returns to her floor and meets two colleagues who greet her, to which she barely responds.“A problem Jeanne? The boss called you I hope at least it's nothing serious. »"No, nothing important, thank you for caring"After that Jeanne went to tidy up in the room that had been assigned to her before being summoned, she sits on the bed for a moment and sighs. No, it's not true now that she knows that this woman is so rich and influential, she can take Emma from her at any time and leave with her.Jeanne knows that her sister would be happier with this woman, but she cannot bring herself to let such a woman shamelessly approach her sister. She abandoned her onc
Jeanne had gotten into the car with Michaël's driver, she hadn't wanted to ask for anything else, only her sister counted in her eyes."Now what happened, sir? I don't understand an accident. Did a car hit her? »The man looked at her from behind through the rearview mirror and sighed. He could see the concern on this woman's face and he understood it. It was her sister, her only family and to learn that she had an accident even if he told her that she was fine must always weigh on her so much. He doesn't know either if he should tell him in detail about her sister's attack, he doesn't like to remember it either, as the scene was so despicable.A little girl surrounded by wild beasts is the vision he has of this morning.“No Miss Jeanne it’s not a road accident”Jeanne could see through the rearview mirror that this man in front of her was refusing to tell her anything. Could what happened to Emma be beyond words? Whatever the truth, she had to know."Please tell me"“Well this morning
Marriage, if someone had spoken to me about that a few more weeks ago, I would have started to cry, regretting having lost Michaël. But now as I'm in this room waiting for the bride's entrance music to play, I feel like I'm in a dream. I've had time to fix all my wrongs on the people I've hurt and now I can say with certainty that I'm ready to live the life that comes my way. After talking to Charlotte, I went to see Cherry. I had been so unfair to her by not allowing her to get to know each other, yet it was her dearest wish for two reasons. I am the woman his best friend is in love with and I am the best friend of the woman she is in love with. It was a bit funny these relations between us, just to say that I occupied an important place in her life without even having already spoken to her. So I went to their apartment, they were living together and because of Cherry's career, they had decided to have a common-law relationship even though a baby was in discussion. They wante
The next morning, Aden was at our doorstep. As soon as he saw me he jumped on me, lifting me up and down. I laughed at his ardor before he dropped me off. But at the same time, I heard a moan of pain as Aden complained. We looked to find Kyle frowning as he just punched Aden. "But what's your problem?" "You're the guy who was supposed to be received by the Emir I think, Aden Logan if I'm not mistaken... but who allowed you to touch my mother? You should keep your hands on you, mom belongs to Dad...” Aden felt a vein pulsate on his forehead, this rascal, he looks like his cunt father, both are so harmful. "Who are you to my mother?" Aden remained silent, he looked at Emma and smiled, he could have teased this brat and at the same time provoked his father by saying that he is the one who could have been their father, but good times when he liked to be petty are gone, now he's more mature and he's given up on the idea of hooking up with Emma one day. He stroked Kyle's head d
Indeed, I had never had an ultrasound so I couldn't imagine that I was expecting two children instead of one. But listening to Michaël I could only realize the baseness of my character as a mother. I had promised myself that I would never do as my mother did, which was to abandon my child, but that's exactly what I did. And I think I did worse because I disowned him, making him cry. My jealousy and anger kept me from thinking and I made horrible and unfair decisions. Manuel grew up without his mother, I understand his speech the day before. I was pathetic, I don't know how to be forgiven. I looked up at my boys on the bed and saw Manuel holding out his hands to me. " Mom..." I sobbed running to him as I hugged him, almost smothering him in my embrace. I've been so unfair, I don't know if I could ever make it up to you but I would do anything to erase the pain of my absence from my baby's heart. I'm going to be the mother he's been missing all this time. I beg your pardon
Kyle hung up before seeing his father bring him a meal tray. He made a face not understanding this silly smile before sighing remembering that it was his parent. "Hello my prince" " Good morning" Michael sighed, it won't be easy at all. "I brought you your breakfast, are you coming?" “I can feed myself you know” “I know it but I want to make sure you take your medicine” "Do I need to take it all the time? Frankly" Michaël smiled, he betrayed himself so easily, it was so adorable. “You have persistent asthma. For this, your pediatrician has asked that you follow a controlled treatment, which means that you will always have to take medication to avoid having severe attacks..." Michaël's eyes widened, if Manuel's meds are here then he won't have taken them since yesterday which means... " Shit" "Don't swear in front of a kid, I'll beg you" Michaël got up rubbing his hair before sighing. "Tell me where your brother is" Kyle almost choked before looking at his father. "W
I sat watching Kyle diligently eat his vegetables wondering what this drastic change was. My boy hates vegetables more than anything, but this seems to have always been his favorite meal. **Baby do you like it that much?** “Yes Mom, you are the best cook in the world” I blushed when my usually reserved son had just paid me such a nice compliment. ** Thank you, my heart..** Manuel had red cheeks, his mom is exactly as his father had described her. She is beautiful and sweet, and he also finds her cute. He wanted to have these magnificent freckles on his face but he is already considered the prettiest boy in his school so he'll settle for that degree of beauty. "Hey mum... do you have a boyfriend?" I nearly choked as my son looked at me seriously. He seemed to be waiting for that answer as if his life depended on it, where did that come from? Manuel wanted to be reassured that his mother remained faithful to his father despite the distance and the separation, not that he would
Kyle sat in Manuel's room wondering when his dad...their dad was coming back. He looked at his twin's bedside table and saw the photo of their younger parents. Emma who looked at Michaël with tenderness and the latter who seemed to dedicate a cult of adoration to the girl. He sighed, the man seemed to adore their mother but why did they separate to the point where his mother left in a panic without even imagining that she had made twins and was therefore abandoning a child? Something must have happened, Manuel doesn't know the reason for this separation either, the only thing he told him was that each time his father answered him that it was his fault that his mother was gone. Because he was not up to her. It's way too vague, he needs to know the real details, but if it turns out that it was really because his dad is a bad guy, he'll just find a simple way to protect their mum, and no more hurt his little brother. Manuel also needs their mother, it hurt him to see his brother c
" Dad?" Michael looked at his son not wanting to give him false hope. He knows how much he misses his mother and how much he would like to find his brother, but he just can't tell him that he is going to find his mother and brother without any real hope. So he'll just keep his excitement to himself and go see what's going on in Tartar. "I just got an important call from Tartar, I'm going to have to go on a business trip tonight and..." "Can I come with you?" Michaël bit his lip, each time he had to make this kind of trip, he always took his son with him but this time, he is afraid that Manuel cannot stand the extremely hot climate of Tartar and that he will relapse. Manuel has been in fragile health since birth and he always made sure he got the best treatment. He is not sure that Tartar will have excellent technical platforms like here so he hesitates. "Please Dad..." He doesn't like it when his son looks at him with those big lamb eyes, he can't refuse him anything. "Good
The room was gloomy, all the employees around the meeting table had lowered their heads in fear of their president's cold gaze as he read the pile of documents in front of him. He had put a hand to his cheek studying the data presented to him as the people around waited fearfully for him to speak. He was known to be ruthless and was quick to get rid of people he found unnecessary. He was nicknamed the big devil, nobody wanted to attract his attention, and they did not know what he could do as he was unpredictable. He was only 27 years old but he imposed a charisma and an overwhelming aura so much that no one could retort at his word. The meeting had been going on for four hours and many hadn't even had lunch yet, but they weren't allowed to complain. He doesn't like noise and hates people complaining. This is Michaël Keller, CEO of the Keller-Clark group. Indeed, a few years earlier, Jeanne had had enough of all this business, especially since Victor had decided to join his fa
Jeanne and Fabian arrived with their two children. Fabian was carrying the baby, a little boy and Joshua was holding his mother's hand excited to see Emma's children, but especially Emma. "Ah, I can't believe my baby has become a mother in her turn" "Indeed and to say that she was expecting twins..." “Her fiancé is a pervert” "Honey, who teaches you such bad words?" " I am very clever" Jeanne sighed in front of her son while Fabian just smiled. They arrived in the hospital room finding Michaël in all his states and no trace of Emma, nor the babies “Mica?” Michaël turned away tearfully as he looked at Jeanne guiltily. A few minutes earlier, after reassuring himself that his second son, who was born more fragile than the other, had been examined by the pediatrician, he returned with him to rest him in his crib with his twin brother. But to his great misfortune, Emma was no longer in the room and neither was their son. He panicked seeing papers on the bed, when he became
