"Ma'am, Mr. Anthony has instructed us to take you shopping. The car is ready, so we can leave whenever you're prepared," Jack informed her. Aysel nodded in acknowledgment, recalling Anthony's earlier instructions.

"He mentioned that to me as well. I suppose we're going now, then?" Aysel replied, her face still pale.

She longed to visit her mother, but she knew it was impossible without Anthony finding out, and the consequences would be dire for both of them.

Jack led the way, followed by Aysel, the butler, and Troy. Upon reaching the car parked outside the doors, Aysel moved to open the back door, but Jack beat her to it, causing her to gasp at the unexpected gesture.

Aysel was taken aback by the unexpected courtesy she was receiving, feeling like she was being treated like a princess. It felt a little uncomfortable to be treated in such a way but she appreciated it.

"Thank you," Aysel murmured to Jack, who responded with a lighthearted smile despite his stern demeanor.

    "I need to pay for the clothes before taking them to the car," said the butler as he hurriedly approached Troy. Having seen Anthony hand over a card to Jack before leaving, the butler went to ask Troy for it since Jack wasn't there. However, Troy did not intend to hand it over and instead went to pay by himself. The butler had just started working that same day, so he was not trustworthy enough to be given the boss's card."I will be right back, ma’am," Troy bowed to Aysel."Okay," Aysel nodded, giving him permission to leave.Aysel felt a little uneasy about all the respect she was receiving from the guards and the butler, but she had no choice but to cope. It didn't settle well with her because she was living in a forced contract marriage, unable to see her mom, and spending extravagantly while receiving excessive respect from the workers. It kind of bothered Aysel.She continued shopping nonetheless when she suddenly heard a scream."What the heck! How dare you stoop so low to p

    "I didn't even know you were here, so how could I have stolen your earrings? Don't frame and accuse me for something I never did!" Aysel retorted, fed up with Scarlett's insults.The cameras kept flashing, and Aysel didn't like the drama that was unfolding, but she couldn't stay silent as Scarlett tried to embarrass her."Should we check the CCTV and find out who is the liar here?" Scarlett questioned, her eyes glinting with certainty that Aysel would be caught."What? NO!" Stella gasped as she stood in between the crowd. If they checked the CCTV, she would be in a lot of trouble."Oh no, I need to leave this place right away before I get caught," Stella thought, her feet already moving away from the heated scene."Do whatever you want," Aysel said, folding her arms over her chest, not caring about whatever evidence Scarlett planned to provide because she knew she didn't steal the earrings."Are you sure she stole it?" Anthony asked, raising an eyebrow and sneering.Scarlett's eyes gle

    "Jack, Troy,” he called out to the bodyguards standing outside the security control room. They immediately came in after hearing their boss call out to them."Go down and ensure that every video is deleted instantly,” Anthony ordered Jack and Troy, who had arrived to witness the unfolding drama only after Anthony had arrived."Erm, Sir? I think it might be too late right now because they already uploaded it to the blog page,” Jack reported, sounding a little nervous due to his failure to perform his duty well enough."Damn it!” Anthony massaged his temples and clenched his fist and jaw in frustration. He was well aware of the repercussions that awaited him once the old man discovered that his pregnant daughter-in-law had been treated harshly in a public place, and his ineffective son could do almost nothing to prevent the embarrassment from befalling his wife.****** "There was a bomb?" Mr. Garcia asked through the phone, his eyes narrowed at the news he was getting."Yes, sir, the e

    "What the heck is happening to me now? Are you suddenly going insane? You are meant to hate him! Yes, hate him, Aysel! He is the reason why your life is ruined! Don't become soft due to the little treatment he is giving you! Who knows, he might be acting this way just because of the baby in you! Wisen up, girl, and don't let him fool you!” Aysel yelled in her head.His gaze on her looked far different from the person he was yesterday when he had forced her to sign the contract papers like a beast! He seemed like a heartless devil at that time, not a character from "Beauty and The Beast."Yesterday he seemed like a devil ready to rip Aysel’s head off if she didn't sign the contract papers, and today he was acting like an angel. What could have prompted such a drastic change in him?"That's ridiculous, totally ridiculous. He is still the devil, so don't let him deceive you with his little pretense,” Aysel wiped off the thoughts she had about Anthony from her head."Don't think too much

    Every detail about him matched Luka Valor’s appearance and demeanor. His masculine features, his eyes, the way he stood with such composure, and much more left Bryan with no doubt that he was indeed Luka Valor’s son. "Good day, sir. How may I help you?" Bryan asked, calmly approaching the elegant man who stood before the receptionist with his hand tucked into his pants.Mikhail didn't respond to his questions and instead took the lead, heading towards the elevator."Ugh, yes. Let's go," Bryan said nervously, following behind Mikhail as they made their way up to his office.Upon entering the office, Bryan didn't settle in his seat. Instead, he stood before his desk, arranging some disorganized documents, feeling tense as he wondered what the Boss’s son might be thinking of him.Mikhail strode forward and settled into the seat, gazing at Bryan plainly, though it didn't seem that way to Bryan. As Bryan neatly arranged the desk, he felt Mikhail's rare eyes piercing into the depths of his

    After the words Stella called them, it registered in Bryan's mind. He met her gaze and relayed a serious warning."Don't ever call me a dimwit! Never use any insults on me and mind the words you use on the higher staff of this company, especially Aysel!” Bryan warned, clearly showing Stella how much he valued Aysel more than her. "You're just throwing threats like a fool,” Stella mocked him with a sneer."Your PA, who you're busy running about like a headless chicken and defending, is actually pregnant for a filthy rich billionaire guy! You're just wasting your time on that trash!” Stella scoffed, having witnessed the scene in the mall before she left without getting caught.Bryan slammed his hand on the desk furiously and yelled at Stella, "What the heck are you telling me? Are you crazy or just jealous, making up these stupid things to get me to leave her?” Bryan found everything Stella said to be nonsense, complete trash.How could the woman he was so invested in suddenly be pregna

    Midway through his action, he hesitated and withdrew his hand into his pocket. Anthony cleared his throat deeply, attempting to awaken her from her deep thoughts.At the sound of his cough, Aysel's eyes widened, and her heart skipped a beat. Startled, she leaped off the swing, but the force caused her to collapse to the ground. Bracing herself for the impact, she was surprised when a muscular arm wrapped around her waist, preventing her from hitting the ground. She found herself held close to his solid chest, a whiff of his expensive, masculine cologne wafted across her nose and it was addicting to her.As she gazed into his intense golden eyes, she saw a fleeting look of concern before it was replaced by anger.He raised her up, making her stand on her feet and Aysel mentally got ready to receive some scolding from him. "Get inside,” He muttered coldly, a frown still etched in his chiseled face."Huh?" Aysel mumbled in surprise, not expecting such a simple command."I said go insi

    Aysel's mind raced with fear and confusion. "What does this devil want from me? What pleasure does he derive from inflicting so much pain and pressure on others?" she thought, her face reflecting her trepidation."Are you going to say it, or should I leave?" he asked, his brow arched as he continued to stare at his little rabbit, who remained silent."Fine. I'll leave. But don't come crying to me," he mumbled, turning to go, when he felt a small hand grab onto his wrist."I'm sorry, Tony. I promise I won't argue with you ever again, and I will always be your submissive little Rabbit," Aysel said quickly, closing her eyes as if she had forced herself to say the words. Aysel's eyes flew open as she was suddenly held against the wall, his lips forcefully pressing against hers. "What is this? Let me go!" Aysel mumbled between the kisses, but he didn't relent, exploring every part of her mouth with his tongue.Fueled by fury, Aysel bit down on his tongue until she tasted blood, then shove

    "Yes, but I never got the chance to confess to your mommy. I only admired her from afar, and when I finally decided to confess, I was unexpectedly taken away from school," Mikhail complained, a hint of sadness in his expression."That's bad," Alexis sympathized, feeling sorry that the love story between his mom and Mikhail had been left unfinished."But it's alright. When I visit next time, I'll make sure to ask your mom to marry me!" Mikhail declared confidently."Hooray! Mom is getting married! I'll have a daddy!" Alexis cheered."Shh! Remember, keep it a secret, okay? Don't tell anyone, not even your mom," Mikhail cautioned, placing a finger to his lips."I promise I won't!" Alexis vowed, and Mikhail affectionately patted his head."You're such a good boy," Mikhail praised with a warm smile.As Alexis and Mrs. Penelope entered the hospital, Mikhail headed towards his car.By the time Alexis had finished his ice cream, and he eagerly ran to his mom."Mom!

    "No one should breathe a word about the late baby to my wife. It's our secret to bear. Alexis and the rest must keep quiet. I'll inform my father-in-law when he arrives," Xavier instructed quietly."Understood," Aysel nodded, relieved to see Xavier looking more composed than before."Janetta has been moved, and the baby is in the incubator. The doctor wants to see you now," Aysel informed him."Good, I'll be back soon," Xavier replied, flashing a brief smile before heading to the doctor's office.Aysel faced Mikhail with a sincere smile of appreciation on her face. "Um..you are?” Aysel asked. Mikhail extended his hand with a charming grin. "Mikhail Valor," he introduced himself, knowing his name might ring a bell. Mikhail’s grin on his lips never faded away as he continued smiling at her confused adorable face. "Yes?..” He said. "Do I know you from somewhere?” Aysel asked, knowing that his name sounded very familiar. Mikhail's grin remained as he replied, " No? Yes? Maybe you kno

    Aysel could not just find herself accepting someone else calling her child a look-alike of Anthony Garcia. It's like a forbidden word to her ears. loud cries continued from the labor room in the background admist. "Aysel, be calm. What's up with you all of a sudden?” Mrs. Penelope asked, walking over to meet her. Mikhail raised his hands up as he got up to his feet, towering over Aysel’s average-looking height. "I mean no harm. What's the need to be so angry? Fine, I won't repeat that again.” Mikhail apologized immediately. "Mom,” Alexis called, pulling Aysel’s hand and Aysel peered down at him, the anger in her eyes still visible. "Don't yell at Uncle. He is nice and means no harm to me. He was only saying, he didn't mean to raise any issue, mommy. And uncle had helped take Aunty to the hospital in his car after the accident. I was on the road, crying and trying to help Aunty but all my efforts turned useless. No one came to help except him,” "What?” Aysel exclaimed, shocked to

    "Get your ass up, Aysel. You have a lot of chores to do, don't you?” Aysel sat up and grabbed her phone. She dialed a number and it got connected in no time. "Good morning, Mom,” Aysel beamed with a wide smile on her glowing face. "Good morning, dear. How are you and my grandson doing? Hope he isn't giving you a headache, right?” Camellia asked on her side of the line. "Yes, he is! He made me chase after him a lot before he agreed to go to school! I even hurt my arm because of him!” Aysel exclaimed frustratedly, rolling her brown eyes as she let out a hard sigh. "Though, he is off to school now,” Aysel said, getting up from her bed. "It won't be bad if Alexis does give you a headache besides, karma is real. You did the same thing to me when you were little,” Camellia muttered with a small giggle. On leaving the room heard something from her mom which made her forehead form a line because she wasn't sure if had heard it right or if her mom had even said anything. "Did you say s

    Five Years Later. "Mama, please! I don't want to go to school!" pleaded a young boy of around five years old, his wavy, short brown hair bouncing as he darted around the spacious sitting room. Seeking refuge, he scurried behind the dining chairs, attempting to evade his determined mother."Alexis, come back here! It's time for your bath, and you have exams today," called out a young woman with a similar shade of brown hair, neatly tied up in a bun. She wore a simple, flowing dress, but her face showed signs of exhaustion. She had been chasing after the mischievous little rascal for several minutes now, but he adamantly refused to comply, insisting that he didn't want to go to school! "I don't want to! I hate my teacher! She always pulls my ear and calls me a naughty boy, even when I haven't done anything wrong!" he exclaimed in a frustrated, childlike tone, as he came out from his hiding spot only to swiftly move to another, repeating the pattern."Did you just say you did nothing

    "I know you love us, Anthony. Talk to me, tell us if Scarlett is forcing you to do this against your wish. I know she is, cause the Anthony I knew over the months would never point a gun at his son and wouldn't ask for a divorce. So speak up Tony and end this DRAMA!” Aysel yelled, abruptly approaching Anthony once she found the chance and took the gun from him but Anthony quickly had his fingers around the trigger and shot it at Aysel. Janetta's quick-witted eyes saw it coming and she quickly pulled Aysel away as it grazed Aysel’s cheek slightly. "Ahh”Aysel let out a yelp, her palm on her cheeks, as her tears grew in her eyes, feeling the slight stinging pain on her cheeks. "Mr. STEWART, give the damned papers to her right now!” Anthony commanded in a formidable tone. The man who was lost in the unfolding scene happening before him jolted out from it. "Ahem. Yes. Yes,” He cleared his throat and went forward to meet the lady who had her hand in her cheeks. "Mrs. Aysel Brown, pleas

    Here are the divorce papers you asked for from me, Mr. Anthony Garcia. "Hand it over to her “ Anthony instructed, gesturing towards Aysel. The man followed the direction Anthony pointed at and his gaze fell on Aysel who stood before him with her petite figure like a bottle that would break any time soon as her body shuddered slightly and a teardrop rolled down her crimson cheeks. Her tears caught his eyes and he felt a sharp pain in his chest as goosebumps formed on his skin. He turned back to Anthony with a questioning gaze. "Her?” he managed to ask with hesitance in his tone. "Who else? Give it to her, so she can sign the pages and leave my estate immediately,” Anthony commanded, sending a chilling aura down his spine. Xavier could not believe everything that was happening. He could not accept that Anthony was changing towards Aysel and her child. "Are you being serious right now, bro? Aysel is your wife for heaven's sake, Anthony!” Xavier palmed his forehead, letting out a gr

    "Let me take him instead, Mississippi. He’s a Bruh, not some Barbie boy. I'll care for him. Alexis does t want you. He wants Uncle Xavier,” Xavier said as he tried to carry Alexis away from Janetta. Janetta almost bites Xavier's hands. "Don't you even dare take him. He almost fell from your hand earlier today when you stubbornly tried to carry him. You know you don't know how to handle a baby but you won't learn first. You just do what you want! Stay away from Alexis, Xavier. You can't handle him,” Janetta stated, and Xavier crunched his face into a frown. Xavier rolled his eyes and Aysel could only let out a sigh. "They're still doing their puppy love as it looks,” Aysel thought inwardly as she shook her head. Mr.Garcia didn't come with them cause he heard something very important came up in the underground so he had to attend to it. When they got to the door, the door wasn't opening which means it was locked from the inside. "Jack! Troy! Drake! Come over here!” Janetta commande

    Pushing the door open, she found Aysel dressed in a blue hospital gown. Her brown hair cascaded loosely on the pillow as she lay on the bed with a baby cradle by her side.Closing the door behind her, Janetta couldn't contain her smile as she approached Aysel, the joy of the new arrival evident in the room."Janetta,” Aysel muttered as she tried to sit up on the bed. She had a smile on her face but carried a little hint of disappointment in her eyes. "Hey, Aysel, how's my little nephew doing?" Janetta whispered as she cautiously approached them.Walking over to the white baby cradle beside Aysel's bed, Janetta laid her eyes on the tiny pink bundle wrapped snugly in a sky-blue blanket. The baby, with his long, thick lashes peacefully shut in slumber, brought a smile to Janetta's face."Oh, he's just adorable. But it seems he's still fast asleep. Should I pick him up now, or should I wait until he wakes?" Janetta inquired excitedly, her joyful smile reflecting in her deep blue eyes.
