It didn’t take long for the news of Celeste’s arrest to spread through the city like a forest fire.

At the Williams' mansion, David looked at his wife and instructed, “Celine, pack what you can, we have to leave, now.”

Celine’s eyes widened. She asked, “Why do we have to leave?”

David walked to the window and peeped through the curtains, fear evident in his eyes. “The police will be here soon. We have to leave before they come. Celeste has been arrested. I know we are next.”

“W-What?” Celine’s voice trembled. “So, we are screwed? Where will we go? We sold everything to acquire the Kingsley group.”

David ran a hand through his hair, frustration coursing through him. He said, “We can leave the country with the cash I have right now. I can buy a house somewhere far where no one knows us.”

“What about Ivy? Are we never going to see her again?” Celine asked worriedly.

“Do you want to join her in jail?” David questioned. “Hurry, we need to leave now. That foolish Celeste got us into tro

    “Ryan, I found something,” Adan said on the phone. “What did you find?” Ryan asked, his heart racing. "Who's the one who saved me?"“Well, um... let me send it to you so that you see it for yourself,” Adan replied.Adan cut the call and a few minutes later, Ryan received a text message from him.Ryan narrowed his eyes as he read the document that his friend sent to him. His heart skipped a beat when he saw Larisa’s name on the document.He had asked Adan to investigate and find out who had saved him all those years ago. From his findings, Ryan realised that Lora was the one who saved him when he was a child and a few years ago when he was kidnapped. How come Lora never mentioned this? Could it be that she had lost her memory? Ryan didn't have the answers to his questions, so he waited until Lora visited him to ask if she recalled anything about the past.However, his heart felt at ease to find out that the woman who had saved him was actually his darling wife.It seemed they were d

    “Jason?” Lora remarked, her eyes widening in shock. "You're the donor?"Jason nodded, stepping closer to the bed and answered, “Yes, I’m the donor.”Ryan glanced at Doctor Steve and the doctor chuckled, saying, “Your brother came through to have some tests a week ago and the results were ready today. His stem cells are a match for yours, Ryan and he offered to donate and help you with your treatment.” ##Flashback to a week ago.##Jason went to see Doctor Steve to have a medical test. He looked at the Doctor and said, “I’m Ryan’s brother and I’m here to check if I can donate my stem cells to him.”Doctor Steve smiled and replied, “That is so kind of you. However, I would like to know if you have any medical history. Do you also have a heart problem like your father? Even if you’re a match, you can’t donate your stem cells if you have a medical condition.” Jason shook his head, saying, “No, I don’t. I recently had a medical check-up. I’m as healthy as a horse.”“Then we can have the te

    "Wanna bet?" Jason asked, a playful smirk on his lips. "If I win, you will have to give me your favorite sports car." "What? No way... I don't give away my babies," Ryan replied. "I'll have to win then... I'm sorry, little bro, I was going to go easy on you but not anymore.""Little bro? I'm a thirty-year-old man," Jason remarked. "Can you not call me that?""To me, you're my little bro," Ryan replied and chuckled. "I'm your big brother and I'll call you whatever I want."Jason rolled his eyes and said, "Show off. Is being the first born something to brag about?""Of course, it means I'm the boss," Ryan replied. The ward was filled with a lively atmosphere as Ryan and Jason bantered. Lora watched them with a small smile on her face. Were they always so childish?“I never thought we would one day chat and laugh like this,” Ryan said after a little while, glancing at Jason before looking at his wife. “In a way, Lora brought us together.” Jason smiled and replied, “I never thought we

    Ryan was waiting for the Doctor in his ward when he heard someone knock on the glass. He turned to look and what he saw made his eyes widen in shock. “What’s going on??” He mouthed since he couldn’t be heard from outside. From outside, Adan Nicholson lowered the whiteboard he was holding and waved at him. Ryan was still trying to understand what was happening when Jason opened the door to the ward and walked in. His freshly shaved head gleamed under the lights. Behind him, Charles, Miles and Adan stepped into the ward, all sporting matching shiny scalps. It couldn’t be helped. Ryan glanced at the four men and broke into a laugh. “Are you guys crazy? You look so funny… why did you shave off your hair?” He asked. Adan chuckled. He put the whiteboard away and answered, “As your support system, we decided to cut off all our hair until yours grows back.”“But I still have my hair,” Ryan remarked. Charles sighed and said, “It will fall off at some point. And instead of waiting for i

    “I can’t believe I can finally go out in the open,” Ryan said as he and Lora walked out of the hospital. He looked at Lora and pulled her closer by the waist, “It feels surreal to hold you like this. I missed you, baby.”Lora blushed, realising Ryan’s hand couldn’t wrap around her waist perfectly because her baby bump had grown in the last few weeks. Ryan had to stay longer in the hospital due to a certain complication. However, he still got better with time and after weeks of isolation and tiring treatments, he was finally allowed to go home. His scalp was no longer shiny and sported very short hair that was beginning to grow back. Although he had lost weight, he looked better rather than the pale look he had the past weeks. “I missed you more, Ryan. I’m so happy you’re better now,” Lora remarked. She looked up at him and smiled, saying, “See, I told you you would get better.”“I’m sad I never got to be there for you throughout the first trimester. But, now that I’m out, I won’t m

Jason saw the news and called Ryan, saying, “Hey, bro, I don’t know who leaked the news. It had been kept under wraps all this while-”“It was me,” Ryan responded on the phone. He seemed to be in a good mood as he stepped into the glass-walled headquarters of the Kingsley Group. “What? Why?” Jason asked, feeling confused. “Because people were trolling you online. I wanted them to know how selfless you are,” Ryan replied as he walked to the elevator with an air of confidence. The staff smiled at him and he waved at them since he couldn’t talk because of the call.

    After his first day of returning to work, Ryan knocked off and went home in the evening.However, when he opened the door, he found a path that was lit by candles on either side. The place was dimly lit with balloons hanging from a few points on the walls.Ryan raised an eyebrow, calling, “Honey, did you do this?”However, there was no response. He could hear soft music playing in the background as if it was setting the mood for a romantic night. Ryan smiled and walked through the path of candles, following it to the living room where he was greeted by his wife seated on a couch, looking sexy as fuck.She was clad in black lingerie with a red robe draped over her shoulders. Very milky long legs were crossed and the thigh-high racy socks which were put in place by a garter belt made her look like a seductress.Lora was very pregnant, but she still looked hot and alluring.

    “Are you ok? Is it ok for you to kneel like that?” Ryan asked his wife who was kneeling in between his legs with her huge belly while he sat on a couch. Ryan was already naked, sprawled on the couch with one hand palming his rock-hard dick. “It’s ok… I’m comfortable,” Lora replied as she grabbed the chocolate-flavoured gel and squeezed a substantial amount into her palm. With her hazel eyes locked on Ryan’s grey ones, she grabbed the base of Ryan’s cock with one hand, causing him to let go of his shaft. She then used her other hand which had the gel and gently, but firmly stroked Ryan’s rod like she was giving him a hand job. A few seconds later, Ryan’s manhood was glistening with the gel. It kept twitching and moving this way and that as Lora teased him. Lora smiled as she admired her husband’s shaft. It was huge and slightly curved to the right. The mushroom tip had a bead of precum on the little hole that was responsible for releasing his seed. Lora leaned over and licked the

One of the staff took the phone to her and she was forced to answer when she saw who was calling. “What is it, Mom?” Bianca asked. “12 pm at Ocean’s Basket.

    “Sir, your parents are back in the city,” Adan Nicholson’s assistant, Cheryl James, reported. “That’s good,” Adan replied lazily. "Next time, you don't have to report that to me."It was a few weeks after the new year and he had a lot of work to do. He was currently going through some new proposals and didn’t want to be bothered. “Sir, they’ve reserved a restaurant and have demanded that you meet them for lunch,” Cheryl gingerly reported. Adan frowned, pinching the bridge of his nose. He asked, “Where’s Reuben? He’s more competent than you. Why didn’t you tell them to call me and ask if I’m free?” Cheryl clenched her hands into fists. Reuben was Adan’s other personal assistant but he was currently on a business trip. She didn’t like being compared to him since it could mean she could lose her job. Cheryl never wanted to be far away from Adan since she had a secret crush on him. “They called you so many times but you didn’t answer their calls, sir,” Cheryl responded patiently. Ad

    The doctor had followed the couple in and while she was making preps for the delivery, Lora could already feel the baby’s head about to come out of her. Her eyes widened. Why was it so fast? The first time she gave birth, she had been in labour for two days!She looked at her husband and exclaimed, “The baby is here! Mmm!”Ryan’s forehead was coated with beads of sweat. He glanced at the doctor and realised that she would take a few more seconds to reach Lora, so he acted fast. He stood in front of Lora, unaware of what he should do. Recalling some TV shows that he had watched, he placed his hands near Lora’s entrance and just as the clock struck midnight and fireworks exploded in the sky, a little baby dropped on Ryan’s hands. The doctor quickly came forward and cut the cord and the baby released a sharp, piercing scream. Ryan froze, his heart racing as he stared down at the tiny, wriggling little human in his hands. He was staring at the world's most beautiful creature. “It’s… I

    “What are your plans for the new year?” Ryan asked Lora on their way to the Kingsley mansion.Lora smiled and replied, “I would be lying if I said I have any plans. Of course, I would like to take Davis & Co, to greater heights and create a new line of designs, however that’s not new. I’ve always had this plan.” “That’s true,” Ryan agreed. “Well, I hope the new year is filled with happiness. 20## was filled with so many ups and downs but I’m not complaining. It brought me back to you. I thought we would never be together again but this year, fate brought us together again and gave us more blessings than we could ask for,” Lora answered. Ryan smiled, happiness gleaming through his eyes. He replied, “This has been the best year of my life. I found out I was a father to two adorable children. I got to remarry the woman of my dreams and I knocked her up. What more can I ask for?” “So, no plans for next year?” Lora asked playfully. “Oh, I have lots. I want us to travel more and hang o

    After weeks of undergoing trial, Celeste, Ivy and Ivy’s parents sat in the courtroom, waiting for the judge to deliver the verdict. The courtroom was filled with thick tension as everyone waited to see what would become of the four criminals. Ryan glanced at Jason who sat next to him and asked in a low voice, “Are you sure you’re ok being here?” Jason sighed, sadness creeping into him as he replied, “I’m not ok but I need to be here. There’s nothing I can do since mom made her own decisions. I’ll respect whatever decision the judge makes.” Ryan nodded, feeling bad for Jason. It must have been tough for him to watch his mother being referred to as a criminal. However, it was what Celeste deserved for what she had done. He shared a look with Lora who was seated on his other side and she nodded at him, smiling in encouragement. She leaned in and whispered, “Today, we will get rid of the bad guys. Once they are locked up, we will be free from schemes and threats.” Ryan smiled, squee
