Jessica took her children to meet her parents. The kids were very excited to be there. Gabby especially couldn't keep calm at all. He was too energetic, and Jessica was almost frightened for her parents."Gabby, keep calm." She scolded lightly. "If you don't, I will tell the cab man to turn back."The threat had the little boy calm down immediately. He zipped his lips. Jessica's relaxed in her seat. Only for him to get excited again, and not even up to five minutes later. This time, Jessica ignored him.When they arrived, she helped them get down from the cab, and before she could turn, they were already running towards the entrance. Mrs. Graves was there. She had come to grab something from a shelf by the corner when she noticed a vehicle parked before the yard. She stopped to see who it was, and when she saw Jessica alight, a smile spread across her face. "Honey!" She called. "Jessica is here with the twins." The news had Mr. Graves running down in an instant. He was equally excite

The following morning, Jessica called Gary to inform him of the kids' entrance examination. Gary was parked outside their apartment early enough. Jessica prepared the kids for school."Mom, is school really that necessary?" Gabby asked. Abby rolled her eyes at him."Gabby, you should grow up already! This is so lame and so old!""You're so lame and so old." Gabby returned. Abby gasped. Began to pull Jessica's sleeve to get her attention."Ignore him, Abby. You're so young and beautiful and interesting!" Jessica said. Abby snorted at Gabby victoriously."Mom," Gabby called again. He tugged Jessica's sleeve just like Abby and was done. "You didn't answer my question."Jessica sighed as she brushed Abby's hair. "What question, Gabby?""Is it necessary to go to school?"Jessica still kept mute. She finished brushing Abby's hair and then turned to brush Gabby's hair as well. Gabby moved his head away. Jessica paused in her movements, this boy was too troublesome."Gabriel." She called firm

When she left Gary's place, she went back home to prepare fully. She dressed very elegantly and business minded. She was, after all, the CEO of Graves Pharmaceuticals. Her father was the president. It was the plan. That way, she could fully involve herself in all the activities of the company as the head. Her father would be the brain behind the entire work of the company. She is the one who would be seen everywhere, representing the company while her father would remain as the chairman of the company. After dressing, she took a cab to her father's company. Getting in, she found out that some workers had resumed. They still needed more workers to fill in the spaces to ensure the company ran very smoothly. She made a mental note to work on the vacancies for the positions needed.After setting up her new office, she was just about to sit and begin work when her door went open and closed. She turned around to see who dared to just get in like that. It was her father. Her wary expression

At past three pm, her phone began to ring incessantly. Annoyed, she answered the call. It was Gary."Hello, I've been calling Jess. Where did you keep your phone?" He demanded. Then as if checking his tone, he calmed a bit. "It's time to get the kids. The driver is waiting for you at the company.""Oh. Alright, I was busy." Jessica said, saving her work. "I'll just round up and go down.""Okay. His name is Levi.""Alright, thanks, Gary."Jessica finished her work and went down to meet the man. They exchanged pleasantries. He drove them to the school, and Jessica registered him as the legal transporter for the kids. The kids filled the atmosphere in the car, making the entire place lively. They were happy with their driver, and the man loved the kids too. Abby was busy telling Jessica everything that happened in school, while Gabby was talking excitedly with Levi.When they got home, the kids waved him bye and ran into the house.

His eyes widened with excitement as he ran into Edwin's office."Edwin, are you watching the news? Did you see it? Something is going on!." "Yeah, I saw it," Edwin asked with a hint of pain. "Did you confirm?"Edwin gave a silent nod. Roy fell to the chair opposite Edwin's."So she is really back." He said, exhaling a little.Later that evening, Edwin and Roy wen

Two days after, Jessica was seated in her new office at Graves' Construction. She was twirling in her chair, reminiscing about the evening event of two days ago. Her phone beeped. It was an acceptance to participate in the contract competition. She smirked. "Well, here's cheers to a big first win." She muttered. She went through her proposal over and over again, before emailing it to the company. She replied with an invitation to present her proposal to the company that same day."Ooh. Sweet cheesecakes!" Jessica grinned. "Things are going well now." Clearing her throat, she stood up and began to rehearse her speech. When she was done, she arranged everything she was going to need and packed them neatly into her bag. She couldn't afford to go late or not in style, so she had Levi pick her up and drop her at the company. After all, she was going to pay for it.The two hours she spent there were the most difficult two hours in her entire life, after her labor of course. She was, at so

Mrs. Turner planned the entire event, even down to the invitees. Once it was time, the guests were seated. They didn't invite everyone, they invited only top businessmen and women, people of noble backgrounds. Most of their business partners were also invited, and the event was held in a very expensive hotel. Mrs. Turner dressed up so elegantly, her pride could be seen as strongly as her joy could be felt. Edwin wasn't interested in the event or even engaging Hannah. Somewhere he had hoped Jessica would show up. At least he would be able to gauge her reaction when she saw him with another woman. But alas, she wasn't invited at all. His mother didn't find her a worthy companion.The entire event was covered live on TV. When he heard that, he relaxed a little. At least if she wasn't going to attend, she could watch it. Edwin wasn't going to allow any sentiment to ruin his plans for the evening.After the introductory speech, Edwin invited Hannah up the stage and proposed to her before e

Haphazardly, she ran towards the checking center. Once everything was done, her luggage was placed properly and it was time for her to find her seat. While she was going in, she bumped into someone else."I'm sorry." She apologized quickly. Without waiting to hear if he heard her or not, she went to find her seat. Once she was sat, she relaxed, sighing to herself. Sometimes she got really messy and it always caused a slip in her entire day.She felt a presence beside her. Opening her eyes, she turned to find the same man she had bumped into standing beside her. Was he still pissed? She apologized, didn't she?"Excuse me, ma'am, that's my seat." The man said. His voice sounded so cool, she automatically obeyed. After he sat, she regained her composure. She turned to him. She was trying to stare at him while being discreet.Roy could fee

"You know, I totally knew about the engagement and I shipped you guys! I gave him all the assurance he needed! You should have seen him. He was a sorry mess." Jessica glared playfully at her. "Oh so you knew and you refused to tell me? I knew something was fishy about the sudden request to go out."Edwin laughed and pulled her closer to his side. Before she could refute it, he turned her and kissed her deeply. Jessica's face went a very dark shade of red and she didn't know where to keep her face after being kissed like that in public."Pervert." She muttered."Baby, your husband to be? You call me a pervert? Do you know what this pervert can do to you?" He whispered. "I could make you scream, and in a good way.""Ahhh!" Jessica screamed and pushed him away, only to have him pull her back. Edwin held her tightly as if she was going to d

Sometimes, Angela came to pick them up. Sometimes, she took them herself.Levi had been discharged but he was still recovering from the internal injuries. Jessica continued paying him because he had only entered that state because of the kids.Friday before the weekend, Edwin watched Jessica perform all her duties and his heart fluttered. He couldn't take his mind off the fact that she cared about him enough to stay beside him in the hospital, refusing to let him be touched by anyone else except her. She even learned to clean his wounds just so that she could take complete care of him."Why are you staring at me?" Jessica inquired. They were alone at home. "Isn't it time to change my bandages? I've bathed and they have not changed for three days al

Babe, have you showered or changed since the accident?" Edwin asked."I couldn't leave your side," Jessica answered sheepishly."Well, I'm awake now. Go and shower and change and then you can return to stay with me." Edwin said. Jessica smiled. She went into the second part of the ward without much thought. Not long after, she returned with a different cloth."Have you had your changing materials the whole time?" Edwin demanded weakly.Jessica nodded."So why didn't you just change?"Jessica ignored his question. Couldn't he understand that she couldn't leave him for once Edwin tapped the space beside him. "Come lay with me." Jessica didn't waste any time. She was very exhausted too and knowing that he had survived the gunshot was able to keep her at rest.She lay beside him, careful not to touch any of the bandages or the IVs.

Once they arrived at the hospital, Jessica watched as the nurses ran out with a stretcher where they carefully placed Edwin. They wheeled him directly into the theatre to prepare him for the operation. Jessica was invited in by the doctor before the operation could commence."Miss, I just want you to sign the documents for the operation and perform the transfer of funds." The doctor said, "There's no need to ask if you want it to be carried out because I can see that you will do anything to save your husband."Jessica tore a check from her checkbook in her purse and signed it. "Here, fill in the amount that covers the entire treatment. I just want him to be fine."The doctor collected the check and the signed paper from her. He ushered her to the waiting room while he went in to perform the surgery.Jessica didn't sit. She was pacing the hallway to and fro. Occasionally, she would make a silent prayer for his safety. Then she would sigh and begin to cry all over again. Her heart was b

It was morning already. Jessica's eyes were wide open. She hadn't slept a wink all night. She didn't just refuse to sleep, she couldn't sleep. As much as her heart was calmer, she still couldn't digest the fact that it was getting to 24 hours since she last saw her children.Edwin was busy making calls here and there, trying to use every one of his influence to find them.He received a call from his private detective."Hello, Mr. Turner.""Mr. Detective. Tell me you've found them." Edwin said tiredly. "Eh.. we found the location. I'll send them to you. I've also assigned some officers to get there as well. I will also ask you to be careful because that's the outskirts of the city. Anyone who could kidnap kids and take them there could be a maniac.""Alright detective. I'll be on my way right now." Edwin said.As soon as Edwin dropped the call, his phone beeped with a text message from the detective. Reading the location, he went to find Jessica in the kitchen fetching water to drink.

In no time, Jessica heard a knock on the door. She quickly ran to check. She found Edwin at the door. The man pulled her into a hug the moment he saw her. Jessica began to cry. Her heart shattered even more. The thought that her kids might be in trouble was a huge problem. "Edwin, my children! My babies! My babies are missing." She cried. "Find them! Find them!" Edwin hugged her. "I'm sorry, let me inform my investigator." Edwin dialed the private investigator immediately. He stepped out to speak to him. "Mr. Turner. I'm quite surprised to hear from you now. I have done what you asked me to do." The man said. "Not about that. Look, my kids are missing. I need you to help me find them." Edwin said. "I'm a computer hacker and software investigator, anything that happens in the physical world is not my job. You need to inform the police or hire a private detective." The man said. "Look, I need you to help me track the driver's number. I will report to the police, yes. But I want
