Marty hesitates to tell her however he didn’t want to hide from Christine. He swallowed twice before ordering his private investigator to reveal what he discovered regarding Evelyn.
Listening to the private investigator's narrative, Christine's eyes widened. Her face turned pale a few shades and her breathing became erratic.
Seeing Christine's reaction to the private investigator's narrative, Marty pulled her into his arms and stroked her back.
“Babe,” Marty whispered in her ears.
Christine did not utter a single word, she pressed her face on his chest for a few seconds. After that, she looked at Marty.
“What do you want to do?” he asked her with a tend
Being the people who stood by her side since they became friends. They are the people who were there at the lowest point of her life. Christine does not intend to conceal what she has learned about her true identity.She smiled at Len and responded, "Don't worry Len, I'm not offended," she gently patted Len's hand and continued, "This afternoon, Marty's private investigator came." Christine took a deep breath."What did his private investigator say?" Corrine got excited, her butt was at the edge of her seat."Relax, you're too excited," Jean chuckled, then she added, "Give her time to compose what she wants to tell.""Sorry, I got carried away," Corrine sheepishly said.A peal of laughter escaped Chris
"I'll kill you," Maureen screamed angrily, her eyes bloodshot as though she's being possessed by an evil spirit. Christine dodged her attack, but she lost her balance and fell down. "Ahhhhh," Christine screamed when she hit the floor. While Maureen was on the verge of another attack, the two guards were already nearby and caught her. "Ma'am, did you get hurt?" asked the anxious guard. The other guard took the knife from Maureen and was taking the handcuff when Maureen kicked him on the crouch. The guard writhes in pain. Maureen ran as fast as she could and went out of the building. "Get her," Christine said to the guard attending to her.
A day after the attack, Maureen's body was cremated after the police established that there was no foul play. The evidence they saw in the CCTV footage was clear enough that she was the one who attacked Christine and ran away. That's when she was hit by a car and met her death. Luke pulled a string to keep the police from leaking any news to the media about the incident. His boss's wedding is just a couple of days away. His last wish for his boss is to have a hassle before or during his most awaited day - his wedding day. On the other hand, Ben never told his mother that Maureen was dead. He knew his mother would accuse Christine and keep harassing her. He's gonna keep it from her forever and let her think that Maureen is hiding somewhere. Why would he let his mom know about Maureen's death? He knew how vicious his mom was towards his sister. He wouldn't tolerate his mother anymore. Christine has suffered much at their hands. In the villa, Christine complained to Marty for not allo
"Wow!" exclaimed Corrine as she saw Christine in her haute couture wedding gown. "Christine, you are so beautiful!" She went on, then scrutinized her gown and added, "Surely, the boss has spent a fortune for this gown of yours." "Of course, our best friend is the love of his life. He won't think twice to spend a fortune for the wedding dress," Jean said and hugged Christine. "I agree with Corrine, you are so beautiful. You are the most beautiful bride I've ever seen," Jean said, looking admirably at Christine. "Thank you so much," Christine smiled at her friends. Her heart is filled with joy to have friends like them. "Where are the other girls?" Christine asked. "Maybe they are already in the hall waiting. You know pregnant women," Jean said, giggling. "Yeah, you're right, I understand. I've been there too," Christine chuckle "Me, too," Jean said. "Hey, I don't fit here," Corrine complains. "Oh, sorry, we didn't mean to ---" Christine didn't finish what she was supposed to s
"Are you tired?" Marty asked her while they were seated in the backseat of the car. "I'm dead tired," she answered and leaned her head on his shoulder. Marty sat her in his lap and said, "Take a nap, I'll wake you when we get to the airport." They had a large number of wedding guests, with whom they should at least have a photograph. After dinner, they went from table after table to have a photo with the guests. They were careful not to miss any table because they did not want to offend any of their guests. And that made Christine exhausted, walking around with her stilettos. Plus the dancing and other stuff they did at the banquet. Forty-five minutes later, they arrived at the airport and the car came to a stop within meters of Marty's private jet. Marty woke her up and he held his breath, seeing her thick long lashes flutter as she slowly opened her eyes. His wife is so beautiful, even as she tries to open her eyes. "Hi," said Christine with a blushing face when she opened
As they were enjoying their red wine and their conversation. Christine caught sight of two familiar persons entering the bar. Her eyes went wide as she saw the two familiar figures coming their way. She was sure that they hadn't seen her. She couldn't contain the excitement of seeing them. "Graham, Karen," she excitedly called while waving her hands. Marty was startled by the names she called. Graham and Karen were equally surprised to see Christine. They never thought of her being here. Graham wanted to ignore her, however, it was already too late for him to ignore her since she was already approaching them followed by Marty. "How are you? Such a small world, I wasn't expecting to see you here, but I'm glad to see you both," Christine said just to ward off the awkwardness. She wanted these feelings to be gone because she missed them. Karen hugs Christine and giggles, "It's such a small world, great to see you again." "I guess there are no more tables available, let's go back to
"Welcome back!" Matilda joyfully welcomes Marty and Christine as they step out of the car. "Mom!" Christine exclaimed happily while she walked quickly towards her mother in law. "Christine, daughter," Matilda hugged her tightly. "How was your honeymoon," Matilda asked as they broke their embrace. "It's great, mom," she answered, her eyes bright and sparkling. Matilda chuckled and said, "I believe you, it's written all over your face." Christine blushed at her mother in law's remark. Is it really obvious that she and Marty had a great time together? She pondered as she held her blushing cheeks. Marty's lips curled up at the sight of his wife. "Mom," Marty kissed his mom's forehead and speak again, "Aren't you gonna ask your son about the honeymoon?" "No need, I could see on your face that you really enjoyed your honeymoon," Matilda answered her son, laughing. Marty burst into laughter. Christine shook her head, watching the mother and son laugh. They had a chat with Matilda i
Rather than being weakened by what Lindsey did, their relationship strengthened. Marty has proven to Christine that he has not cheated on her and her trust in him was fortified. The deed that was meant to tear them apart drew them closer together and made their marriage stronger. "Are you okay?" Marty asked her while they were heading to the fashion show. "I'm nervous, the last time I performed was the Awards Night five years ago," Christine ruefully said. Marty remembered her performance and said, "Yeah, you danced like you weren't carrying our baby." "I couldn't back out at the time because I only learned that I was pregnant two weeks before the Awards Night and can't think of a plausible reason so that they will replace me. And I can't disclose that I was pregnant," Christine explained. Marty felt culpable and said, "I'm sorry." Christine cupped his face and told him, "Babe, you have already said sorry a thousand times over. It's happened before and there's no undoing the past
Christmas Eve New Zealand Jacobs Estate After dinner the children excitedly went into the living room waiting for Marty to read a story for them. He sat at the love seat beside Christine, before opening the book he kissed Christine’s forehead. He placed the book on his lap, then placed his left arm around Christine’s shoulders and she leaned her head on Marty’s shoulder. And then he began to read the story for the children. Christine looked up, admiringly at her husband who was reading the story. As usual he switches voices to suit the character. After finishing the story the children went to kiss both Christine and Marty. “Grandpa, thank you for reading the book for us,” the 7 years old Jackson, their eldest grandson said and kissed Marty’s cheeks and then went to Christine and kissed her cheeks also and hugged both Christine and Marty telling them “I love you both to the moon and back.” That is what his mom, Cassie and father, Jared always tell him.

The doctor and nurses silently watched Marty grieving. They heard every word Marty told his wife. Their hearts go to Marty, seeing how broken he was. While Marty sobbing, Christine gasped and simultaneously opened her eyes. “Babe, you’re alive!” Marty shouted with joy. The doctor and nurses came running to them and attended to Christine immediately. Marty's tears didn’t stop welling up. “God, thank you,” he said while watching his wife. When the doctor was certain that Christine’s were fine they wheeled her into her suite. Marty stayed by her side and didn’t want to leave her. “Babe, how are the babies doing?” Christine asked when she didn’t see the babies in the room. “They're fine, they’ll be here after the newborn screening,” Marty brushed his thumb on her cheek, Marty’s vision became blurry as his tears pooled in his eyes and tears rolled down. He bent forward and hugged her tightly. “Please, don’t leave me babe,” he said incoherently while crying. Christine could feel his
Corrine went to the airport to pick up Jeremy. She was really pleased to see Jack and Jared. "Hey, little man, you're here to surprise your mom?" Corrine asked Jared while he ruffled his soft blond hair. "Yup," Jared answered her with a smirk. Corrine chuckled at his expression and said, "You really look and act like your dad." "Of course, he is good looking and smart like me," Jack said with a smug face. "Your son is an even better version of you. He's a lot more handsome and smarter than you." "He doesn't have that look and that brain if I wasn't his dad," Jack retorted while Corrine snorted. The next day, a limousine came to fetch Christine's best friends from the hotel. Christine was pacing back and forth in the living room while she eagerly awaited her best friends' arrival. Marty was worried about her condition and held her arm and said, "Babe, sit down, don't strain yourself.". He directed her towards the couch and sat down. Christine w
"No doubt she is Stella's daughter, she is the spitting image of her mother.” watching Christine attentively, her eyes soft. She and Stella were best friends. Whatever Stella had, she also had. Stella treated her like her own sister. Looking at Christine, Lorna reminisces the happy moments she had with Stella. After a couple of moments of reminiscence, she took Christine's hand and said, "My uncle had sought you out all these years. I am so pleased that you are finally here." Christine smiled feebly, she didn't know how to answer Lindsey's mother. She is trying to digest the fact that the woman who wanted to destroy her marriage was actually a family. And she's kind of baffled by the difference in attitude between Lindsey and Lorna; they're like the south and north poles. One has a trashy attitude while the other is gentle and kind. Are they really related to each other? She shudders at the thought that Lindsey is actually her cousin, that Marty meeting Lindsey is in
Señor Dela Vega squinted his eyes and gave Lindsey a side glance and said, "Are you even trying to manipulate me?" Lindsey trembled when Senor Dela Vega spoke to her in an authoritative tone. He didn't speak to her the way he did. He always doted on her and spoke to her gently. "I'm sorry, grandpa," she whispered. Senor Dela Vega ignored her and stared at Marty and said, "I want to meet your wife.". Everything Lindsey said to him was exactly the opposite of what he heard from Marty. And he was intrigued and wanted to see Christine. Senor Dela Vega stood up from the couch and refused Lindsey's assistance. He was disgusted with everything he had learned from Marty. He thought she was an innocent and pure girl, but she was quite the contrary. Marty came near Christine and whispered something in her ear. Her heartbeat began to pick up as if it's like a racing horse. She took a slow breath to calm down. Christine lowered her head as she was still nervous to meet Lindsey's grandfather.
