'My daughter is already engaged,' Mr. Crown replied, feeling confused about the caller's identity and true intentions.'That doesn't matter,''What do you mean? Do you even know who she's engaged to? She's getting married to a billionaire,' Mr. Crown replied.'I checked his net worth and he's now a multi-millionaire. I guess he lost some money, but I've got way more to spare,' the strange man muttered.'I don't know who you are, and I don't care, just get the fuck off my phone,' Mr. Crown sneered, removing the phone from his ear.He was about to hang up when the man spoke again. 'I have the power to change your life for good. I can do it negatively and positively. I desire to be good to you, so meet me at the Reece cafeteria in thirty minutes but if you decide to ignore my words, be ready to face the consequences of your actions. Have a nice day,' He hung up.“How dare he threaten me? Who does he think he is? What's the meaning of all this rubbish?” Mr. Crown scowled as began walking
“We need a vacation. I'm sure that the kids would be excited about it,” Emma said, smiling brightly. “Do you have a house there?” "Yes, I do, “Liam replied.”I have purchased houses over the years, but I haven't spent too much of my money. I don't have a private jet, even though I'm rich enough to get one. I don't have a helicopter either because, for some reason, I prefer driving," “The kids would be thrilled if you bought those things. I'm certain that they would tell their classmates and everyone in their school,” Emma snickered. “If getting a private jet or helicopter would make the kids happy, then, I will gladly purchase them,” Liam responded. “You and the kids can choose which type of helicopter or jet to purchase. A team effort would be so much fun, wouldn't it?” Emma winked at him. “Nice suggestion,” Liam nodded, glancing at her. “I will tell them of my plans when they return from school,”Emma nodded in agreement and her lips widened into a smile. She might have gone thr
A smile appeared on Elizabeth's lips, she was so happy about the results.Emma wasn't pleased with what she heard, she had hoped that the pregnancy wasn't Liam's. Liam didn't expect the child to be his as well.“I'm so happy,” Elizabeth squealed, clapping her hands excitedly. “Thank you so much, doctor,”“You're welcome, ma'am,” The doctor replied and kept the result back in the envelope. He handed the envelope over to Elizabeth.Emma stood to her feet and muttered, “Please excuse me,”She grabbed her bag from the doctor's table and stormed out of his office.“Emma,” Liam called, but she didn't spare him a glance. “Emma, wait!” Liam urged and rushed out of the office.“Are you angry?” He asked, following her from behind.Emma stopped walking and faced him.“I'm not angry, I'm just…" Emma trailed off. “Yes, I'm angry!” She exclaimed honestly. “I didn't want the child to be yours, I wanted her away from our family for good but now, you can't send her back to prison and neither can you
Emma was shocked by the doctor's response. Though she wasn't surprised that Elizabeth would do something like that, she didn't expect the doctor that Liam spoke so reputedly about to be a partner in her evil.“I can't believe this,” Vanessa gasped. “Weren't you concerned about the damage the DNA result could do? How could you be so heartless?”The doctor lowered his head and released a sigh.“I'm sorry,” He apologized.“Emma, let's go,” Vanessa muttered and held her hand.As both of them walked to the door, the doctor stopped them.“Wait,”Emma and Vanessa halted their steps and slowly turned to him.“What about the money?” the doctor asked, stunning both of them.“You greedy bastard!” Vanessa raised her voice in anger. “How can you expect another payment after what you did? You should be stripped of your license for your actions!”“I told you the truth because you promised to pay me double of anything that Elizabeth paid me. You should keep to your part of the deal,” The doctor insis
They broke the hug and smiled at each other.“Let's have some lunch,” Vanessa proposed and rubbed her stomach. “I'm so famished,”Emma chuckled and folded the DNA result into her bag.“Let's go,” Emma said and they exited the hospital.They boarded a cab and Vanessa told the name of the restaurant to the cab driver.“Bring your phone. I need to send the pieces of evidence to you,” Vanessa muttered and extended her hand.With a smile on her lips, Emma gave her phone to her. Vanessa transferred the details and returned the phone to Emma.“I might head to the police station and give them the details of the doctor, so if anything happens to me, they would know whom to arrest,” Vanessa said, her voice laced with a hint of fear.“He's not going to do anything to you. But it wouldn't do any harm to protect yourself. Thank you so much for confronting him on my behalf. I have been stressed, and it was quite shocking to learn that he faked the results. I was speechless,” Emma laughed lightly.“
“Ahhh!!” Elizabeth screamed as fell off the rooftop.Liam stretched his hand to catch her, but he was too late. Her body dropped to the floor with a loud thud and her skull broke.Liam gasped at the horrific sight as blood gushed from her broken head. He heard Emma's gasps from behind, she looked so shaken.“Oh my…God,” Emma shuddered, her hands flew to her mouth in shock. “Oh, my goodness!!!” She let out a scream and tears slipped from her eyes.She shouldn't be crying over someone who had tried so many times to ruin her life, but she couldn't help it. Everything happened too suddenly.“Liam, what…are we going to do? Is she dead?” Emma asked, tears rolling down her cheeks.“Yes, she's dead,” Liam replied, a hint of sadness in his voice.He was unhappy that the poor baby lost its life. It might not have been his child, but he didn't wish for any of this to happen.“Liam, we might get blamed for her death. Are there no cameras around here?” Emma asked, looking around.“There are no cam
Emma clenched her fists and darted her gaze to the shattered vase. She looked at her stepmother again, and anger surged through her veins.“I can't believe that I was feeling sorry for you and your daughter,” Emma gasped, shocked by her own emotions. “I have been tormented from the moment that you came into this house and your daughter set me up and almost ruined my life,”Emma took a step forward, but Liam held her back.“I've got this,” Emma muttered and gently removed her hand from his grip. She walked to her stepmother and snarled coldly, “I shouldn't pity you. You deserve whatever is happening to you right now. Your daughter also deserved to die, I wish her death were more painful,”“You bitch,” Mrs. Crown raised her hand to slap Emma, but Emma grabbed her hand before it struck her face.Without thinking twice, Emma slapped her so hard that she was knocked down to the floor.“Your daughter has tried killing me more than once. She tried using my allergies against me, she almost d
Mr. Crown hung up the phone and began lamenting.“What am I going to do now? I haven't thought of anything yet,” Mr. Crown muttered, his voice laced with worry. “How am I going to tear them apart? I've used almost every means I know, but they've remained madly in love. What could I do to change that? Is there anything that can make their love fade away?”“Even if they break up, how am I going to force Emma to get married to a stranger? She's no longer a kid, and she doesn't want to see me either.” Mr. Crown muttered, unable to think of anything that could help him.“I am as good as dead if I don't get this done,” Mr. Crown lamented, his eyes stinging with tears. “What have I gotten myself into?”He darted his teary gaze upstairs and said, “I could have asked for her help or ideas, but she's not in the state of mind to respond to me,”“I can't let that man pressure me into doing anything. I've got to relax and think carefully about my next steps,” Mr. Crown said, sucking in a deep brea
“What I'm feeling is none of your business. Just let me out of this place already! Love is by choice, not force!” Emma cried out and hoped that her bodyguards would find her.“You're going to understand the kind of love I have for you after we get married,” Jacked beamed psychotically, his eyes devilishly scrutinizing her body. “The baby will be aborted after we get married,”Emma gasped, and her hands protectively covered her stomach.“I have to endure his children in our home, I won't bear to raise another one,” Jackson snarled, his eyes darkening at her.“I'll kill you if you try to touch my baby,” Emma threatened, tears brimming in her eyes.“You can try. I love it when you're so rough with me,” He laughed like a maniac.'Liam, please find me. I think the pregnancy made me emotional and now, I have committed a huge mistake. Please save me,' Emma cried inwardly.“A man is coming to get you ready for the wedding. I'll get ready too, see you till then,” Jackson winked at her and left
“Thank you for sending your men to help me, those bodyguards of hers were close to catching me,”Emma heard her father's voice but found it difficult to open her eyes.The next voice she heard was quite unfamiliar.“Well, you made a drastic move to bring my happiness to me. Why wouldn't I help you?” The man responded to Mr. Crown.“May I ask what your name is?” Mr. Crown inquired, his curiosity piqued.“My name is Jackson Taylor,” He responded.The mention of the last name 'Taylor', made Emma more eager to snap out of her unconsciousness. Fortunately, her body cooperated and her eyes slowly opened.Her vision was blurry at first, but within a few seconds, it cleared. She surveyed her environment and saw that she was in someone's sitting room.She darted her gaze to the two men seated on the couch. Anger surged through her when she saw Mr Crown.“You told me that you were having a heart attack!” Emma cried out as she felt a sharp pain in her head.“I am sure that you would have been pl
Emma awakened and found herself in her room. “Honey, are you okay?” Liam asked, his voice full of concern.“Mommy, how do you feel?” Alden asked, holding his mother's hand.Emma groaned a bit and slowly sat upright.“I'm okay,” Emma replied as she saw the worried expressions on their faces.“Are you sure that you're fine, or should I call the doctor?” Liam asked.“Hey, don't make things more complicated. Which doctor would want to come all the way here to examine me?”“There's nothing that money can't do. I can even give him or her a free ride on my yacht,” Liam responded, unconvinced by her positive response. “Mummy, Daddy is right. A doctor should check if you are truly alright or not. We don't want you to fall sick,” Alden muttered and hugged his mother.“I don't want you to be ill either,” Aziel said, resting his head on her lap.Emerald was beside her father, hiccuping. She was so scared when she saw her mother unconscious on the floor. It was her screams that alerted her fathe
Over the weekend, Liam and his family headed to his private island to have some fun. They went via a chopper that Liam had purchased.As they arrived at the Island, they stepped out of the chopper and watched it fly away with the pilot.“Bye,” Emerald smiled, waving at the chopper.“The pilot isn't going to see you, stop waving,” Aziel scoffed.“I wasn't waving at the pilot,” Emerald retorted, continuing to wave to annoy her brother.“Follow me,” Liam said and began walking away.Emma and the kids followed him into the mansion that was situated on the island. The kids were so excited to play and make sand castles when they returned to the shore.“This mansion is beautiful,” Emma commented, having her seat beside Liam. “Yes, it is,” Liam smiled, glancing around. “It has been a while since I've been here,” “Sophia would have loved to come,” Emma said, referring to the Nanny. “I'm sure that she's happy about taking a break. I also believe that we should spend some quality time with ou
