In New Jersey, Anna Lester was called out again, she isn't feeling well at all. After her last confrontation with Richard, she hadn't been fine again. When she stepped out, he saw Clem. He squinted. He is Adrian's assistance and why is he alone, where is her son? “How're you doing Aunt?” Clem asked, helping her to a seat comfortably. He was wrong not to have visited Adrian's mother. He'd just been Searching for his boss and it didn't cross his heart that he should be checking on his mother as well. “I'm not fine until I see him, until I'm sure my son is fine. Tell me Clem, Where is Adrian, where is my son?” Anna asked, her eyes well up with tears. She'd become thin and her eye sockets are now deep. Prison life can never be suitable for anyone. The once beautiful elegant Anna Lester has now become a shadow of her former self. “Honestly Aunt, I don't know where he is. I've been searching everywhere for him. Mr Richard and I are almost turning the nation upside d
Santiago glanced at him, squinting his eyes and everyone was quiet for a while. He'd been missing for over three months. And there hasn't been a record of anyone coming to visit his mother until now. Why? And now that the day when the masked boss would be unveiling his face draws closer, his mother is now being visited. What's the connection? “Well, the thought just crossed my mind and I blurted it out. Anyways, forget I said it” Jimmy stuttered. He didn't even give it a second thought before blurting the words out. Aurora shrugged but didn't say anything. Without any funds, can Adrian buy such a multi million dollar company and still invest so much on it? He manages his family business and that's where the whole money goes. Where would he get such money from, besides, he can't take a loan easily without evidence of being able to pay the fund back. He is likely not. Adrian is rich, but it all depends on his father and family. Few days later, Santiago recei
Patrick gazed at his wrist, it was hurting him. Initially he ignored it but it appears the grip was getting tighter and the poking was something else. He saw how Aurora held him as if she was afraid he would vanish away. He knew that part of his wrist where she was holding must have gotten bloody red, but he didn't move her hand away. Maybe it's instinct or intuition, Aurora turned and gaze at him and then followed the direction of his gaze and discovered she was holding him too tight. She pulled her hand away quickly and apologized “I'm sorry Patrick” she said and saw his wrist was reddened in a circular thread, her fingers printed red on it. Patrick raised his head and glanced at Aurora, their eyes met. Both stared at each other and eventually sighed. Aurora's face appeared to be drained of blood. She least expected to see Adrian comeback in such a magnificent way. They both looked away just in time to see the new product popped open by Adrian Lester himsel
He sat relaxed and glanced at his side to see Jess staring at him without a word. He looked away, avoiding her gaze. Her stares send chills of guilt down his spine. As the chauffeur kept driving, Jess asked “Where are you taking me?” She found out about him that morning when she took her Mom to the hospital for a checkup. He had reminded her to take her Mom to the hospital because they would henceforth get free medical treatment in the town's hospital. She was told the hospital was now owned by Adrian Lester. And he offered her and her Mom free medical care whenever they visited. That made her question his words. He said they would get free medical treatment and that's exactly what happened. She decided to google more information about the young billionaire Adrian Lester and his pictures popped up. Despite the differences in the looks and appearance, she could find the connection, the similarities. How can a disguise be perfect when the eyes and the nose cannot
“Why did you hide your identity from us? Why did you not let me know that it was you who paid for Mom's surgery and other bills? Why did you live in disguise? This isn't right Adrian. Why did you leave my mom and I in great shock when we discovered the identity of the one we've been relating with for months?” Jess demanded, her facial expression showing displeasure. “Jess, don't blame me. I'm sorry if I didn't let you and Mrs Margaret know who I truly am. Your mom calls me Nelson, and the name automatically stuck on me in your town. I had to do it. A lot of people are on the search for me. If I don't live a disguised life, I won't achieve my aim. I'm sorry” Adrian explained. The duo were just through with their dinner and they sat down to talk. Jess was happy though. When Adrian apologised, he told her they were going to leave. He can't stay out too long. “Come with me” Adrian declared, offering his hand. Jess took it, and stood up. He crossed his arms
Few minutes later, Aurora's location was found. Good enough that Adrian was closer than Jimmy and his men. He got there and found himself staring at an old deserted building. How can this be the place, where the tracker was pointing at. The structure looked like an abandoned house. He glanced at his men, and they nodded, it only implied that somehow, Aurora was held captive there. He needed to step in. He took a step forward into the building, his gun in his hand and it was empty. He glanced at the house, this house must have been owned by some rich people of nearly a century ago. The structure was old but firm. The architecture structure was archaic but still attractive. Adrian was still glancing around, the walls echoed back every step he took, his breath was coming out loud, the solitary nature of the house. Where is Aurora? He asked quietly as he took another step, intending to go further into the house when something happened, and the only thing Adrian coul
How can she not recognise him when he brings his perverted body before her. Why did it not occur to her to think within that line that Ray Grimard could be responsible for her abduction? She glared at him. Despite the candle is the only source of lighting in the room, her vision was getting accustomed to her environment and she saw him clearly as he got closer. “I was already getting impatient with your unconsciousness. I had to suppress my desire and wait until you wake up” Ray declared, getting closer to stand by her side, his bulgy part so obviously visible. “You bastard,” Aurora cursed. She tried to fight him back by struggling to get free but she couldn't. She was so furious staring at him. “I'd advise you to reserve your energy for the activities ahead. I have so longed for you, little puny” Ray stuttered, came closer to her and forcefully kissed her. Aurora bit his lips so hard that Ray Grimard quickly raised himself with a deep cut on his lips. He w
At this moment, Adrian was searching for the control panel to help activate the opening. There were at least three of them. Despite holding a gun, more hands are needed to have proper rescue and save their lives too. He found the panel and just before reaching it, he got a terrible kick on his shoulder that sent his pistol flying off his hands. Then another kicking followed at his back and he went low on his knees. Now, he'd got no pistol in his hands. He had been attacked and he was there to rescue Aurora. In order not to end up being a captive himself, he needed to think fast and find a way about it. His hands felt weak and paralyzed from the vicious kick. He knew attacking them both might not be a wise decision, hence he focused on attacking one and getting the other to hands down. As swift as lightning, he turned himself and yanked his entire weight on one of the men. Together they rolled on the floor. The other,now stretching his dagger to stab Adrian at any t
Jimmy's action pacified the entire family but not Simon Blake. This girl called him by his full name and that's a humiliation on its own. How can she be so disrespectful? “You talk to father that way, you called him by his full name and rebuffed his final decision on your stupidity? How dare you humiliate my father this way?”Jimmy declared. Without another word, he pulled Magda by her wrist and took her into the bedroom. He shut the door and bolted it from within and forced her against the wall painfully? “You suddenly became senseless because you are pregnant. You're not the first person to be pregnant in this family but your pregnancy has succeeded in turning you into a maniac. He pressed himself against her to the wall and pinned her chin with his fingers, making her completely powerless and unable to resist him. “I didn't force the pregnancy on you, I didn't rape you either. We made love, we were happy doing it,it pleased us both, we got satisfied and the
Adrian stood up quickly, he was going to look for her. He searched around and she'd left indeed. He dialed her cell phone but it was switched off. He sighed softly and decided he would talk to her by morning. He sighted Patrick seeing Amanda off. He waited until the latter drove off and went to meet Patrick. He saw his face glow with excitement and he smirked. “You've got yourself a new girlfriend eventually” Adrian stuttered, sounding sarcastic. He didn't expect that suddenly a woman had bonded with him and it's at grandfather's candle night. “She's a friend. Not a girlfriend in the context of your thoughts” Patrick snapped at him. What's wrong if he's been accompanied by a woman? “Whatever. It only surprises me that she sprouted out of nowhere to be by your side. And you obviously forgot that Jessica was here to keep you company at your grandfather's death…” Adrian was saying when Patrick interrupted him. “Shut it Adrian!” Patrick bellowed, his gaze unfrie
Patrick glanced at Adrian casually and looked away. No one gets really close to his mom and wouldn't fall in love with her. Maybe it's her charisma or it's simply magical. If Adrian of all people could start loving her, it only means that his mom would be on par with angels soon. Because hardly can anyone not love angels. “Luna is an amazing woman. She'd been here often these few days to check up on Father. And last night, she decided to stay up all night by his bedside when she saw his critical condition…” Richard stuttered. The women were busy, instructing the maids and supervising them. Things need to be put in order and a real touch of perfection is all they require. “Aunt Luna, we could just sit and watch. Hasn't the entire decoration been contracted out to a company already?” Aurora urged. The decorations of the mansion have been really given out to a company,now they just needed to await the beautiful work of art that would be done. Jessica kn
She'd stayed up all night by his bedside to administer his medication according to the hourly prescription. She stayed there along with his nurse. But at midnight, father opened his eyes weakly and said “You're the one here Luna?” He'd asked. Initially she'd wondered why he used those words. But then, she soon understood what he meant. “All these years, I'd always thought Anna will be by my bedside when I die,but she'd gone before me and here you are, in her place” Those were the last words of father to her. Luna sniffled and stood by the sidelines, beside her was Richard. They all were broken and for a while none could console the other. But there was something else that father said and Luna couldn't say it out loud. She'll keep it in her heart in order for her not to act selfishly. “The ambulance is waiting outside. Father's remains must be taken to the morgue” Richard informed. He would be taken there while they made preparations for his funeral.
It wasn't only Aurora who appeared to be sobbing,Clara Leon looked away hiding her tears. She pulled her hands off Aurora's grip and fetched a tissue paper. She stretched her hand and offered Aurora one and she took it, cleaning her tears too. Adrian knew both of them were sobbing,not for pains or sorrow,but for being pleased with him. He didn't mind their silent sob, he continued: “When grandfather insisted that I should marry your daughter, I thought he was being old fashioned,not considerate nor did he know the feelings of the heart. I thought I knew better but I was a fool. Grandfather was offering me my life saver and I didn't realize it. He was insisting that I hold onto an asset of an inestimable price,but I was mad at his dictates. That made me swear to never have anything to do with your daughter. I vowed to make her miserable and I swear, I did just that. But I was privileged to be given a second chance. It was late when I realised that I had hurt a
Lena hurried into the office and saw the frosty gaze of her boss, glaring at her furiously. What had she done to make him feel so furious with her? “How did this trash get in here?” He demanded, his index finger pointing to the beautiful flowers that had found itself in the trash can. “Miss Jessica brought it for you and since you're both acquaintances, I let her drop it on your desk…” Lena was explaining when Patrick yelled at her. “Do I look like I am an acquaintance of Jessica? How dare you allow that woman into my office?” His tone was filled with contempt for the one who brought the flowers. Lena couldn't find her voice to answer Patrick Connor. She saw them both together the previous day and even went to lunch together. They're not lovers but they really get together. “I'm sorry sir” Lena apologised. She didn't expect that from yesterday to that morning, their closeness had become history. Something has gone wrong and she was wondering too, why woul
Nancy just held Charlotte's hands and nodded. She couldn't find her voice. What can she say, her daughter is there for her. She's a fulfilled woman. “I'm sorry everyone for this messy atmosphere. It isn't Magda's fault at all, it was mine. I shouldn't have fallen in love with a she-devil. I shouldn't have allowed my feelings and emotions to blind me, not to have realized what kind of woman I married. It was mine fault, I asked for your forgiveness” Jimmy apologized. He turned to his sobbing mother and sister in-law, who kept wiping the tears off his mother's face “I'm sorry sister in-law. I didn't know that Magda had lost her sanity. Please forgive me for this accusation and humiliation that woman brought to you. Take it out on me however you want but please, don't hate me for this” he pleaded. The atmosphere became a bit less tense. Jimmy glanced at his brother and saw him, with a cold gaze looking away. “Now listen to me everyone so that you can be a wit
Santiago glared at her in displeasure. How can she say no? How can she feel comfortable living in a place where she's been humiliated and insulted? Didn't she know he was doing that for her, that she should remain the dignified wife of Santiago Blake? Magda has turned into a Hyna and only attacks her from every side. “You will leave here. I am doing this for you. Can't you see how disrespected you've become by Magda,the senseless woman Jimmy trapped himself with? I can't let you stay another hour here. I can't take it if anyone tries to hurt you again. So to keep my mental health intact, we're leaving, you and I this…” Santiago was saying and taking Charlotte's wrist to make her leave with him but she pulled her hand off aggressively. “I said no, Santi. I am not leaving to anywhere. Is it too difficult for you to understand?” Charlotte replied, wiping her tears off and staring at her husband. Santiago is the best man on earth. She loves him more than her
Jimmy was startled and stared at his bride. What is going on, she's instigating a misunderstanding between his elder brother and himself. She's talking to Santiago and telling him lies that he'd been having affairs with his wife? Both Charlotte and Nancy exchanged glances. They've never seen such senselessness before. Right before their eyes, she accused her husband and sister in-law of infidelity? Charlotte was lost for words. What the hell is going on? Does she have anything against her that she couldn't think of something else to defame her except to accuse her of cheating on her husband with his brother? They don't know what Santiago said but Magda hung up and glared at Jimmy with irritation and turned to Charlotte staring at her as if she was going to strip her naked with her eyes. “What has this family done to you that you want to ruin our peace and happiness? You have to provide evidence to this accusation before every member of this family” Nancy stuttere
