“Loraine, you think you have all the cards now by showing up with your son after all these years. Well, watch me!”. Elena Fellogan steps into Loraine's office, which is on the same floor as Dordrich's. Without knocking, Elena enters Loraine's workspace full of hate. But she looks at her unfazed, not in the least intimidated by her words.
“Okay, that's settled then. I'm waiting for the next actions," Loraine reacts bored. She glances up from the documents she is going through, but immediately drops her head again after answering Elena. The woman is not used to being ignored and loses her elite attitude. “Having a child with a married man, building a love nest with someone else’s husband. Is there anything legal you can do?” she spits out vengefully. She now leans on Loraine's desk with her two hands, who still has a disinterested attitude.
After a few seconds, Loraine raises her head with a sigh.
“Don't you
After the Fellogans leave her room, Loraine sits up in her chair. She understands that this can no longer continue, Aziel is very observant and will sooner or later find out that she is being harassed by these two. Elena doesn't seem over the betrayal of her husband with Loraine yet, while Dordrich seizes every opportunity to persuade the latter to start a relationship again. Dordrich is indeed still terribly handsome, despite the years that have scarred him physically. But Loraine now loves Aziel unconditionally, she has no intention of leaving or cheating on him. In addition, she’s sure to carry Aziel's child. This time she wants to walk the right path and give her children the security of a complete family. She strokes her slightly bulging stomach, dreaming about the moment when she will hold another baby in her arms, this time from the man of her dreams. She takes her phone and calls Kaylah. Kaylah is also pregnant for the second time and w
With their heads in the clouds, Aziel and Loraine leave the hospital.The news of their twins has put them in a blissful mood, they've had more than they asked for. Especially Aziel can't believe his luck, these are the children of the woman he loves.But his thoughts are also occupied by the detective's statement. Clairy put him in a trap. When Loraine finds out about this, he fears the worst. And now that she's pregnant with twins, she can't bear any emotional shocks at all. Two babies are heavy to carry, he read about this online but never suspects he would be blessed with it. All kinds of thoughts run through his head, he knows that he must deal with this matter with Clairy quickly and quietly. He doesn't know the solution yet but thinks that a conversation with the girl should bring more clarity.“Aziel!”The man is startled from his thoughts. When he looks at the woman next to him, he sees that she is staring at him in surp
Third-partyThat Loraine thinks she can have it all!Well, not this time. Aziel will let her go and marry me now that I am pregnant with him. He has no choice, otherwise, I go to the press and portray him as an irresponsible womanizer who seduces young girls and abandons them when they turn out to be pregnant. He can't use any negative publicity, especially since Loraine has been discredited before.And he can't prove his allegations that I raped him. I have the copies of the CCTV footage, in which he willingly walked beside me out of the club, got into the car that drove us away. He also got out at the apartment himself. So, he can't do anything with that. And I can handle a DNA test, he was my first sexual contact. The apartment cleaners can attest that the sheets had blood when they changed the bed.I've arranged everything well. But not alone.When I read the news online a few months ago of Loraine and Aziel confirming their love for
Aziel walks onto the covered terrace where he has arranged to meet Clairy.She is already waiting for him and when she sees him coming, she gets up overjoyed to fly around his neck. But Aziel keeps her at a distance and a disappointed look falls over her face. “Aziel. After that rambunctious night we had, you can't treat me like a stranger anymore. Have you forgotten what we've all done? There is no shame between us anymore, we are soul mates”, she now declares with pleasure.Aziel continues to look at her coldly.“If you mean the night you raped me, I have to disappoint you. You are a criminal and you belong in prison. And I'm going to work on that, I won't rest until you're behind bars," he bites her. A painful expression flashes in Clairy's eyes for a moment, but it is soon gone. She smiles triumphantly, her eyes sparkling with pleasure. “You want your child's mother in prison, Aziel? Then
Somewhere in New York, there is a loud knock on the door.When Andre opens the door, he sees the person he wished never to see again in this life. Dale!He frowns at the sight of the expensively dressed and well-groomed man whom he considered his lover for years until he showed his true nature. “What do you want?” he asks unkindly, blocking the doorway, a silent sign to the visitor that he is not welcome.“Aren't you happy to see me, Andre? It's been years since we had a decent conversation," Dale tells him with a grin on his face. He looks Andre straight in the eye and feigns a painful expression at the man's dismissive attitude. “Can we put the past to rest and at least treat each other like civilized adults? Remember we were lovers, we were intimate, and you can't just wipe that away," he tries his luck.Andre's mind makes all kinds of assumptions why Dale suddenly reappears on the scene. Is he in need of money? Or is he tem
Andre's POVDale thinks he's got everything to his liking.Confidently, he arranged an extravagant vacation for both of us, paying for everything himself. And now we are at the airport on our way to the tropical island of Curacao. He gave me our vacation schedule and I only see expensive activities that we will undertake. An island sightseeing in a fully loaded touring bus, water scooter race, ostrich egg hunt and then a romantic boat trip at night. We stay two nights on Curacao before we travel on to Suriname, his homeland where the wonderful black water and traditional Maroon villages await us.Dale has it all done.Although I enjoy the mighty sex, I have not forgotten my mission. My focus is to know what he is actually up to, what his relationship is with Clairy and if they are partners in crime. My goal is to protect my son and that is directly linked to the happiness of Aziel and Loraine. If these two are happy, Lorrich's future is brig
Loraine rests her head, eyes closed, against the back of the car.Today she is more tired than the previous days, her pregnancy is really starting to drain her energy. She strokes her slightly bulging belly with a smile on her face. Reminiscing how Lorrich reacted to the news that he is becoming a big brother to two siblings, her heart swells with joy. When Aziel told him the news, he was silent for almost half a minute, then looked at her fearfully before walking over to her. He had lifted his little face worried at her. “Mom, are you okay? Are you feeling alright? Otherwise, daddy and I will go quickly to buy you some fruit, it's no trouble at all”. Loraine had looked at him strangely at first, wondering what he meant by his words.Lorrich had reminded her that she had often felt unwell while pregnant with him. At those times, his daddy Andre had bought her a lot of fruit so that she could have enough vitamins. Now that Andre doesn't live ne
"Aziel, is this true?"With bloodshot eyes, Loraine now looks at her fiancée, who has tears in his eyes. He grabs her and squeezes her to his body as if he never wants to let her go.“Forgive me, Loraine. It was not my choice.” His voice is laced with held-back tears as he hides his face in her hair. “I never wanted to cheat on you. I love you so much. This was a mistake, I swear.” Loraine shakes her head in disbelief. “Clairy? How did you get in touch with her again to the point that you are now expecting a child? And when did this happen? We are always together and in the morning you are at work”, she asks in pain.Aziel swallows hard, he knows he has to come clean now. “I want you to believe me when I say that this was not intentional. I belong only to you, you are my life, you, the twins and Lorrich. I can't lose you, it’s too much." He is a man but now tears are rolling down his cheeks freely. Jus
Finally!Mrs. Loraine Aziel Renegade. Nice to meet you all out there.Aziel has just sworn his undying love for me in front of a hundred-strong crowd here in the Protestant congregation. Before the God we serve, he promised to always be there for me in good and bad times, share all my sorrows and joys, and never again hide his struggles from me.Yes, we've had a rough time.We both went through a deep hell, but God had mercy on us, we are resurrected and have overcome. And today we start a new episode in life. I’m Mrs. Renegade, the title I aspired to, dreamed of for a long time. And today it has all become a reality. I am the lawful wife of that wonderful, gorgeous man I saw standing by the pulpit waiting for me, who pulled me tenderly by the hand beside him. I love him, have told him so many times. There's only one secret left to share with him, and I'll do it tonight.We are now walking into our reception, Kaylah has organize
When we are inside the room, we indeed see Aziel lying on the bed. It's like he hasn't bathed or shaved in days. He lies there snoring like a sailor.Damian grabs him by the shoulders. “Aziel, Oooh My God! No, man, no!” he exclaims. He gently shakes Aziel until he opens one eye. He looks at Damian blankly and closes his eyes again. “Aziel, we're here, you can't sleep any longer, wake up!” Damian insists. And another eye opens. A hand goes up slowly. “Damian? Aren't you a dream?” he asks hoarsely.I quickly get a glass of water and give it to Damian. He puts it against Aziel's lips. “Drink something, it will make your throat feel less coarse”, he encourages the obviously absent-minded Aziel. There's a sip and another. I go to the other side of the bed and help Aziel sit up straight. “What have you done to yourself? Why didn't you come to me like you always do, Aziel? Running away from problems doesn't solve t
Fellogan's Rolls Royce now comes into view. Little can be recognized of the expensive car, it is a total wreck. Obviously, he flew into the guardrail lost control of the wheel. The paramedics are quick to respond, as is the fire brigade. Because emergency workers are running to the spot, there is little to see of the accident for a few seconds on tv. Until the journalist on-site announces that they have managed to get Fellogan out of the vehicle and he is still alive.“Yes, the assholes in this world have seven lives,” Archer curses. We see Fellogan being transported to the helicopter on a stretcher. His face is bloodied, his head is supported with a clamp. It's clear he's in a lot of pain, but he's holding his ground.We drive on. "Let's hope this doesn't become another obstacle in our friends' relationship," Damian sighs. “Those setbacks always follow each other. What the two need is peace, in their relationship, in their life.”
“Man, this is bad. How did we lose sight of them? This was inevitable, Aziel simply succumbed”, Damian sighs. “We should have been alert when they arrived. Ever since the funeral, we should have forced him into therapy.”We look at each other with guilt.“These two clearly belong together. And that Fellogan also pulled some tricks, which certainly didn't work well on their relationship. Why do I feel like that idiot did it all on purpose?” Archer grinned. “I never liked him. A cheater can never have high morale.”We're going at high speed, the speed cameras have already caught us a few times. But that's for later concern. Virginia is our target and we want to get there as soon as possible. “Archer, turn on the television. I want to see what the media has made of Loraine's case," I ask him. He zips some channels until we do see breaking news. The reporter tries to get the medical staff to talk an
What follows is total chaos.Somehow the press learned that Loraine would be transported by ambulance and amassed outside the house within minutes. Fortunately, her garage is covered, allowing the ambulance to be ushered in and cut off from the outside world. This way we can protect her privacy as much as possible.Meanwhile, Damian and Kenjal have arrived.Kaylah and I ride in the ambulance with Loraine while the others follow with their own transport. The paparazzi follow behind us, it's a madhouse. “Kaylah, would we rather not have transported her per helicopter services? This is crazy!” I ask distraught. The paramedics gave Loraine first aid and placed her under anesthesia. She's pretty weak, she's been on the bed for days, the nurse said. I hit myself on the forehead, why didn't I act sooner? I never thought Aziel would leave, I thought he had the situation firmly in hand. Not so.“We'll handle this, don’t worry.
Andre's POVBoth Loraine and Aziel are out of reach.Their phones are off, they haven't been seen in the workplace for days. Lorrich also asks about his parents, I can't give him an appropriate answer why they haven't called him these days.This is a bizarre situation. In any case, they would have told me if they were leaving the country, even if it was on a business trip. Nor have this couple ever neglected Lorrich, even now that he lives with me. Since we arrived in New York, the two have been struggling with serious relationship issues, and Loraine got her memory back. Attempts by me to mediate failed hopelessly, Aziel could not vent his heart towards me. And as it turns out, not with Loraine either. This won't end well, I can feel it coming at my toes.I have avoided alarming our other friends about what’s happening these days. I know how emotional Kaylah reacts to everything Loraine regards, Rick and Kenjal are Aziel's buddies. No
I have been very restless all day.Yes, I am sexually frustrated, Aziel has been sleeping next to me for days without touching me. But that's not my biggest problem.Aziel is not only physically inaccessible to me but also mentally. He shuts me out completely, when I want to lean against his chest as usual, he turns away from me, when I reach out my hand to touch him, he keeps himself out of my reach.Mentally I'm broken too. What is certain is that we cannot continue like this, we have to solve tense between us ourselves. We can't live without each other, breaking up is not the answer to our problems.Dordrich is to blame, I swear!Very finely, he set up the plan to separate Aziel and me. It already started right at my return at the airport by completely ignoring Aziel. He clearly had a hand in the screenplay set up there. And the news items where I'm in his company are broadcast longer and more often from an angle where we seem to b
Aziel's POVI meant what I said that night.The debacle of my children, the rape, the kidnapping of Loraine and everything that happened after that could have been prevented if I had been more alert. It's all my fault, period!And that Fellogan keeps peddling it in the press, he’s on a mission. I hardly dared to look Loraine in the eye for the past few weeks at home. She noticed the change in me, I see that she suffers a lot. Late at night I even hear her crying next to me in bed.After my confession, everything in the house has changed.Even Lorrich sensed it, he was having a hard time dealing with the changed atmosphere. Andre has come a few times to persuade me to discuss what is troubling me. But I'm not ready to talk about it yet, I have to come to terms with myself first.I feel Loraine's pain, but there's nothing I can do to ease it now. She's mentally too far away from me. We hardly communicate, just sitting at th
The memories return in full force when Loraine enters the house with Lorrich on her arm. She quickly falls on the couch and holds her head. The last days leading up to her amnesia, the stress of Aziel's lawsuit, distraught watching Aziel suffer from the attacks from the media, everything resurfaces.Also, the day she was lured from the hospital by the head nurse and Danner who was waiting for her in the parking lot. “Mommy, what is it?” Lorrich asks concerned when he sees her pained face. She looks at her son, she knows he is too young to understand the evil ways of adults. Aziel, who has just entered, sees Loraine's gray face. "Angel, are you feeling well? You look terrible" he asks concerned. She beckons him to sit next to her and buries her head in his chest. “Everything is back. I have my memory back, my head is pounding", she whispers.A stabbing headache begins to set in, she massages her temples in the hope that it will pass. Quickly, A
