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
“How can I achieve that, when a scumbag like you whose conscience has been eaten up by dogs abducts women to harass them?” Adrian snarls at him. At this time, Adrian focused on Ray Grimard but was watching Aurora from his split vision. He couldn't forget it easily that Ray used to be in the military. Ray Grimard glared at Aurora and his heart was racing fast. He still hadn't fucked her and she'd wound him, he was feeling a burning sensation of pain and helplessness caused by this bitch. Turning to fix his gaze on Adrian, he wondered where those rascals were that this rich brat could walk in. But seeing his bloody clothes and deep cuts, he knew a battle had ensued between them and Adrian probably overpowered them. “Tell me why you risk your life to save this bitch who cheats on you with your best friend? Who readily judged you when the scandal broke out,who hurt your feelings and emotions and attempted to murder you in the past?” Ray Grimard ridiculed. “My li
Jimmy has to plead with her and promises to keep her updated on Adrian's state before Aurora agrees to return home. There were cameras all over the place and the two men working with Ray were also apprehended and taken away. A hot headline was all over the place by morning. Adrian Lester, the owner of Penguin breweries, was on the verge of death as he went to rescue ex-wife. Aurora was in shock the entire night and she wouldn't sleep. She kept calling and Patrick informed her that Adrian needed an urgent blood transfusion and he was having the same blood type with him. It wasn't long, Adrian was being transfused with Patrick's blood. It was during that time that the bad news came, Anna Lester had another cardiac arrest and this time, she didn't survive it. Clem got the news first and Patrick next. Adrian was in a bad state and couldn't travel. They didn't inform him about his mother's death yet until he gets a bit relieved. He wasn't told who's blood he was transf
When the Funeral ended, Adrian remained by his mother's tomb and sobbed. All he could say was “Mom, Mom…” he would definitely miss her. The last time he was with her was when his father took him to be a mistake and wished that he was never born. He remained by the tomb, Jess wouldn't leave but stayed with him. Richard stood aside and scooped Elsie in his arms. It's unfortunate that he has to introduce Elsie to Anna as their first grandchild. She definitely would long to hold her in her arms, but it was too late already. Elsie is the spitting image of his lady mother. Father would definitely be pleased that he'd got a great granddaughter that took after his late wife. He was so happy to have her. Aurora stood by, leaning her head against Richard's arms, sobbing silently. She wished that she returned to Anna Lester as her daughter again and not the poor tramp she used to call her. She dislikes Anna but she didn't wish that she died the way she did. Alone, away a
He pulled his robe over his bare body and dragged himself to the sitting room only to meet Santiago and Jimmy. He squinted, yawned and mumbled words that sounded like greetings. “Sorry we had to wake you up from sleep. I insisted on seeing you” Santiago informed. They were standing and Adrian requested that they take a seat. “It's okay. Thanks for the condolences, and please extend my appreciation to your parents” He declared, taking the sofa opposite the brothers. “Just my parents, how about Aurora and your daughter?” Santiago demanded, watching Adrian as he poured himself a glass of water. Adrian paused, placed back the glass of water he was holding and chuckled softly. He didn't offer the brothers any drinks because he found them holding glasses of wine when he stepped out. “She didn't come to New Jersey because of me, she's here with Patrick and being present at the funeral was simply coincidental. As for having a daughter, I don't have any” Adrian was
Adrian sighed softly. He knew it, staying in the Blakes mansion was definitely going to be a mistake. But her family insisted that they want him to put up with them. And now,the first face to come before him was Aurora's. “Hi,” Aurora said, smiling. She was dressed in a brown designer suit and pants. Her hair is styled with a curly tip. She looked gorgeous and a bit taller than usual, thanks to the high heels. “Hi” Adrian replied in his cold but masculine tone. He glanced at her briefly and looked away, focusing his gaze on her face. Beautiful as always, he complimented her in his heart. Aurora stood, expecting him to step aside so she could come in but he remained rooted on the spot waiting for her to tell him exactly what brought her to the door of the guest room where he's spending the night. “Hmmm, can I come in?” Aurora asked, still wearing a broad smile. She watched as Adrian, with a poker face, nodded and stepped aside, letting her come in. “Mom told
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
Patrick has never felt belittled by a woman like Jessica just made him feel. He glared at her in fury and she glanced at him flippantly and hissed between gritted teeth. She's right, there's nothing he can do about it. She knows everything about himself and Adrian and the puzzle created by Aurora's presence in the middle. She now threatens him with it? How dare she, how can he not have regards before his employees and she says such words to him? He'll ask Aurora, she'll definitely tell him the truth. If she's the one,he would scold and frown at what she's done. But if she's not, he'll invite Adrian for a discussion and discuss things with him. He'll tell him everything. He would get angry, frown at him but he deserves to know what happened that night. He cannot let this woman become a pain in his ass or turn him into a pawn that she talks down at. Without another word, Patrick nodded and stepped out of her office. He got to his secretary and asked “cance
Seeing that Jessica was playing with her cutleries, Patrick chuckled. Looks like he'd talk too much. That's why he preferred to be quiet than talking because he might go overboard. Jessica swallowed hard. He is jealous that Adrian got him an apartment. He wants to be the one to do it. Hadn't she put a shackle on her feet now,by getting involved with the brothers? Having a crush on one and sleeping with the other. Only one knows that she's involved with them both. What if Adrian gets to know that his brother fucked her? Wouldn't they take it out on each other? For the rest of the meal they didn't say anything. When they were through, Patrick paid with his limitless card and they got into the car. Just then, his phone chirped. Seeing his mom was calling, he answered the phone “Hello mom” he greeted, getting his seat belt strapped over his body. “Guess who I met today, a childhood friend of mine. And she's also got a very beautiful daughter. I already a
Jessica settled into her office but she hasn't stopped wondering what crossing boundaries meant or what it is in the Lester conglomerate. She isn't going to take anything for granted. For Adrian's sake, she would behave herself. And the fact that she'd shared moments with Patrick, she'll do her best to ensure nothing gets into her head to make her misbehave. By lunch, Patrick sent her a text that she would accompany him for lunch. There isn't a big deal if he invites an employee to accompany him to lunch after all. It's not like he'd ever invited an employee though,but Jessica is more than just an employee, she's Adrian's friend and his one night lover. Jessica agreed and by noon, Patrick was stepping out of the company with Jessica. This time, he was driving. He asked his chauffeur and bodyguards to take the time off. As he sat behind the wheel, the seat belt strapped around him, the car tinted,the atmosphere chilly, the conducive environment made them have
Nancy already pulled her daughter in-law into an embrace and consoled her. No woman would be comfortable to be reminded of her lost child but Magda just reminded her. “Don't let her words get into you. I know you would give me many grandchildren. You will be fine, Santiago loves you, that should be more exciting…” Nancy consoled her. Simon asked Santiago to take her to their room. That way, Santiago took her away, while Nancy went back to her room, followed closely behind by her husband. “She thinks I can't be a mother again simply because Dominic died?” Charlotte sobbed. Why did Dominic have to die, why didn't he fight,and survive and be with her? If he did,the likes of Magda wouldn't talk to her this way. But then, what happened to Magda? She was such a sweet soul and loving. What happened to her? “She doesn't know what she's saying. What does she know about our marriage nor the decision for us not to have a baby yet? She said those words to hurt you
They saw Magda step out of the car in a beautiful wedding dress and holding a bouquet of rose flowers. She looked beautiful and on her finger was a beautiful diamond wedding band. Jimmy stepped out from the other side of the car and walked over, intertwining his fingers with hers, they walked towards the house. “Santiago, I'm dreaming. This can't be real, right?” Charlotte asked,her eyes still locked with her husband's. They are married at such early hours of the day? Who is the fool that joined a couple without family or witnesses? Or could it be that they got some roadside witnesses? “I wish it's a dream indeed. But this is real, my love” Santiago responded. Without waiting another minute, he got his robe on, wore his slippers and stepped out of the room. Charlotte too, not wanting to be told what really happened, stepped out in her night dress and went after her husband. By the time they descended the stairs, their family had all crowded round the couple.
Simon shrugged. She could go ahead. She might be able to get words out from her since her fiance wouldn't be willing to do so. Seeing that Simon didn't see anything wrong with that, Nancy decided to check on Magda. After all, if she were getting married the next day, it's only normal that they would have a few words of discussion. When she stood by the door to Jimmy's room, she knocked gently. Nancy knocked on the door repeatedly and there was no response. She contemplated on turning back to leave and the door was yanked open. Before her stood Magda, dressed in a transparent dress that barely covered her ass. She glared at Nancy in irritation. This old hag kept knocking the door disturbing her quiet moments alone. What the heck does she want? “I've been at the door for a while. I already concluded that you're asleep” Nancy explained. She would already have turned around and left. But staring at Magda, she doesn't like it that she stares at her in su
