2021-09-01 14:19:21I groaned and tried to move my body. I feel light-headed and exhausted and my eyelids feel so heavy. Everything around me was strangely quiet and all I could hear was the continuous electronic beep.
I tried to move even though I feel weak like a block of cement was on top of me. I fluttered my eyes open and was blinded by the shining light making me blink multiple times to let my eyes adjust.Everything I saw was white. White walls, white sheets and I'm even wearing white.Am I dead? Is this heaven?I sat up in daze and realized that I'm actually in a hospital when I noticed a lot of things attached to my body.It turns out that the beeping sound that I was hearing was coming from the heart rate monitor beside me. I initially thought it was just me.I looked around to see if there was anyone besides me. The room is huge, but I’m alone in it. There were two couches at the side of the room with a coffee table in the middle, a single bed is also placRelated chapters

I’m now alone with the lady who just entered earlier and the man who saved my life. Honestly, I’m thankful that the crowd is now gone, but I can’t still help but feel awkward being in the same room with the person whom I just met, but did a lot of things to me that I am now indebted to him.“T-Thank you for s-saving m-me!” I stuttered in a raspy voice, so I cleared my throat to hide my embarrassment .The guy who found me in the woods, bowed his head in response which made me confused. Why is he bowing his head to me like I’m a royalty?I was about to tell him that he doesn’t need to be so formal and bow his head to me when I owe him my life when the old woman who first entered in my room spoke.“I”m Amelia Sullivan. It was my butler who saw you in the woods.” She told me in a nice sweet voice that sounded like a lullaby.It explains why he’s being so formal with me and wearing a suit and an e

She is one of Warren's top investors and we met several occasions before, but it was too long ago. She wasn’t this old when I had met her.I was probably high school back then when Warren gave me a tour of their company. that is why I didn't recognize her immediately. Sullivan Co. is a large profiting company. It was so successful that it would be absurd to sell it to someone but she did. For a week the media was filled with news about her company."Why did you sell Sullivan Co.?" I can't help but ask what all people had been asking her because she never answered the question."Because I have no family to give it to when I die,” she answered."What do you mean you have no family?""It happened long ago Bella but the wound it caused my heart never healed. You know I was once married," she chuckled and I was surprised at her revelation. Everyone thought she grew old single."I married Richard Sullivan and he was the real owner of the company.

“Bella is that you?” Alyssa hugged me when she saw me at their doorstep. I just got released from the hospital yesterday, after another month of staying conscious in the hospital.Although, I was fine the doctor didn’t let me leave because of my babies. I had to take drugs that were dangerous to my babies and I’m having twins. They have to closely monitor me and my pregnancy to avoid complications.Even though the doctor had given me the permission to leave, he strictly told me that I can't tire myself out and eat healthy foods to keep me and my baby's health up.If the doctor had allowed me to leave sooner, I would directly go back to Alyssa and her father to repay them because of what they did to me. I promised myself that I will repay them once I had the chance to. Not just because they were nice to me, but also because they were the actual first people who cared for me even if I was just a stranger to them.I welomed her hug and said,

Five years after...“Charles, Charlie! Come on wake up! You have school today!” I shook them.When Charlotte wasn’t born yet, we used to call her Lottie in my womb because of Amelia. She loves calling her Lottie. However, when she died, we got used to Andrew calling Charlotte Charlie that we all started calling her Charlie too.Charles groaned and Charlie stretched her arms like a cat before standing up. I tied their window curtains to let the sun come in. Charles covered his face with a pillow because of the light that touched his face.“Charles! Come on wake up!” Charlie shook Charles harder and he just ignored her.“Go and take a bath. Leave that sleepyhead alone,” I ordered Charlie and she took her towel and went inside the bathroom.I proceeded to the kitchen to cook some breakfast. I started to cook pancakes which were their favorites and prepared their warm cup of chocolateAfter Charlie went out of

The elevator dinged and Lisa removed her arms around me to look who it was. Calvin entered holding three cups of latte and a box of donuts.“What happened?” He asked when he saw what I looked like.“Nothing,” I sniffed and wiped away my tears.Alice averted her gaze from Calvin and entered my office so I followed her. Calvin laid the foods he brought on the table and offered it to us. I declined his offer politely because I just ate my breakfast. Lisa just shook her head.“The event would be Monday next week. You had to prepare your outfit and you'll need a partner, ” Lisa told me, ignoring Calvin.“Are you talking about the annual event?” Calvin asked.“No, we don't,” Lisa replied sarcastically.I was stunned by her reply. Maybe her work is taking a toll on her that is why she is becoming hot-headed.“I can be your partner. I'm also invited to the event,” he replied ignor

Warren’s POVI've been living for five years without Bella. In those five years, I drowned myself to work and tried to shut everyone out of my life. I was obsessed with getting revenge and ruining Calvin's life. I thought I was going to be successful but because of that stupid mall, he was able to survive and grow again by leeching to that business. He was like a weed that if you cut them, they would only grow again with much healthier leaves.My mom was happy with the divorce. She was so elated at the news while my dad was okay about it. My mom never liked Bella because of her poor background. She had always wanted to me to marry someone of our league. A woman that is a daughter of successful businessmen.Ivy helped me throughout my life. She was always with me cheering me up and reminding me that I made the right decision.Mom saw how close I am to her and she supported me about it."Son it's been five years.

In Loving You Final Chapter
It was one of our lucky guesses. Somehow, we guessed that this might be written in the contract. We all know what Ivy wants. It’s marrying Warren and Gemma obviously wants money. She wants nothing more than money. I know that since we were little.So, to take some precautionary measures, Warren transferred all that he owns to my name.That’s also how I found out about Warren losing everything he mostly has at the day when we met again at the hospital after our trip to France. I found out that prior to going to the hospital to see Charles; he went first to their family house to sign papers to transfer his properties and to sign away his right as the only son of his parents.There was not much that he has to transfer to my name. So now he actually owned nothing.Blood drained from Ivy’s face as she realized it’s over. We defeated her and there’s nothing for her to do because Gemma is now gone to help her and she will be in prison, so s

"Defendant Ivy Sutton is filed with charges of documentary falsification, felon in possession of firearm, kidnapping, grand theft, attempted murder and aiding and abetting wanted criminals.""Attempted murder? How?" the defense asked after hearing the charges against his defendant."It was the incident five years ago, I believe. They attempted to force the victim into abortion, but ended up nearly killing her and doing nothing to save her."I don't know if this man really has no idea about this, but I'm sure he has to have known everything before he entered this court. I'm sure Ivy had told him everything. How else is he going to defend her if he knows nothing at all?Ivy might have hired the best and most heartless criminal defense attorney at all that only cared about her money, but Warren also hired the best that there is to handle the case that we are pressing against her. What she did is a serious crime and there's no way she can leave unscathed. All I want

Warren just came out of surgery and I don't know how I did it, but even though in my distraught state, I was able to comfort the twins about the fact that their father is in surgery."It's a simple surgery, that's what the doctor said so no need to worry much," I told them and both of them were able to be with each other with smile on their faces as I wait for Warren's surgery to end in the waiting room."Warren, I'm sorry," I whispered to him as he sleeps on his bed. He's probably still under the effects of morphine.I know for a fact that Gemma wants to shoot me from the start, but Warren blocked his body from the bullet's path to save me.Ivy was stupid to trust Gemma, she didn't know that she was just using her so she can destroy my life for whatever reason.Watching Warren unconscious and weak without any certainties of when he will wake up made me realize how dumb I was for telling him that it wasn't easy.That it isn't easy for me to live with hi

Warren slumped on the couch and held his head between his hands when the call ended. He looked lost after the conversation, while I looked more stricken and worried on what's going to happen.Warren stood up, dialed something in his phone and waited for someone to answer his call. "Hello, I just had a call in this number, can you please track it for me?" He paused, waiting for the person at the end of the line to answer. "Thank you so much," Warren said before ending the call."What did they say?" I asked him."The call was done in a payphone," Warren answered me with a troubled expression.These guys they hired are smart, one of the reasons why the FBI are still searching for them."I can't wait anymore, Warren. My daughter is out there with Ivy, Gemma and wanted criminals. It's lunch time, Warren, but my daughter hasn't even eaten breakfast and drank water since she's kidnapped," I told Warren pleadingly."Mom, don't worry. You're stressing yourself t
In Loving You Chapter 104
Bella’s POV“The results came in and everything is fine. All his vital signs were clear and he just needed to rest. It appears that the cause of all of this was too much stress and nothing really serious.” The doctor smiled at us, giving us a great news.“Oh thank God!” A tear escaped my eye because of happiness.I held Charles’s hand tight and gave him a light kiss on his hand. Charles was hospitalized, he fainted and his nose bled because of me. He was stressed because he was worried too much about me. It reminded me of what Warren’s parents had told me that I was responsible for all these that had happened.When the doctor and the nurses had left, I started crying beside Charles. I don’t want to cry, but the tears just spilled out. “You should have said something. You should have talked to me,”I croaked. I’m supposed to scold him and teach him a lesson, but how could I if the tears flowed out of
In Loving You Chapter 103
Warren’s POV“Didn’t I tell you to leave?!” I hissed at my parents after securing the door behind me.“We are not going to leave until you let us see our grandson!” Dad roared back at me, making me feel more angry.“You have no shame in being here,” I spoke roughly, keeping my voice down, knowing that Bella can hear our conversation inside the room if we raised our voice.I can’t believe they have the guts to rush here to shout at Bella and tell her that she’s the worst mother that there is. Bella is a great mother. I can never imagine a woman raise up twins so perfectly after having a divorce. She never wants all this to happen, and I know she’s going through a lot of things right now. How could they barge here and blame Bella for everything.I never hated my parents the way I hated them now.Today, I was supposed to go to our family house to settle the company ownership with my parent&r

Gemma’s POV“You understand now, huh?!” Ivy yelled at the poor girl, her eyes wide with contempt. “I did all that because of your mother. She’s the reason why I turned into this so you have no right to call me things because you don’t know me!” Charlie flinched at her seat and I could only smile behind them, trying to suppress my laugh.I never thought that Ivy is even this stupid. How can’t she see everything? How can’t she hear the words coming out of her mouth? She brought all this to herself and yet she’s blaming her actions to Bella.She was the reason why Bella and Warren got close to each other, the reason why Bella thought she was fine with her marrying Warren. She accepted my offer that’s why we were here. How can’t she not see the reason why we are here?Was I so good of an actress that she couldn’t see that I’m only using her and lying straight to her face or is she jus
In Loving You Chapter 101
Ivy’s POVThat’s how it all started, the betrayal, the edited photographs, the kidnapping, all the hideous crimes I committed. It started with a promise that Gemma gave me. A hope that she will give me the life that I always wanted in exchange for my cooperation and money.I should have said no, I should have ran away from her at the mention of the word “mafia”. Perhaps I was being desperate. I was afraid of living a life where I lost. So, I grabbed the opportunity when she handed it.Even though I’ve agreed to help Gemma in her plans to ruin Bella’s life a day just after her marriage, our plans started rolling two years in their marriage.Gemma thought that waiting for two years will be the right time to ruin their relationship. Study says that most married couples feel burnouts in two years of marriage, so we waited patiently for that.The fact that Bella and Warren have no children and are not expecting one made it easy

"Ivy?" Warren asked questioningly. I turned around and saw him come out of his penthouse confused.I pocketed my phone behind my jeans and looked at him nervously.We have been texting regarding the wedding that is happening tomorrow. I texted him and told him to come out of his house because I'm here on his front door."I thought you were joking. How long have you been here?" He asked me with a smile. I didn't answer him. "You should come inside, it's so cold out here.""No," I declined politely. "I won't be long. I just came here to ask you a question and I want to see you answer personally."Warren inserted his hands into his pocket and nodded his head, shaking his hair. "Sure, go ahead." He looked like he was feeling cold, but I couldn't feel anything."I just want to remind you that you are marrying my bestfriend.""I know that.""I'm not here to tell you what you already know. I'm here to tell you that if you had hurt her in any way, I w
