"Ahh, Joy ... this is what I always miss from you. Ohh ..." The woman wrapped in a tight cloth on her body was close to Jordan. She shamelessly touched and released the intimacy. Jordan also responded. Jordan really enjoyed nights that way. He never wanted to lose the joy of being with his friends and the ladies he adored. After two months of just wrestling with Clarabelle, with the ladies waiting for him at the club, it became something different. Meanwhile, Jordan's three friends were also engrossed in their respective partners. The sound of loud music, the pounding, and the swaying of those on the floor surrounded by lights flashing non-stop added to the atmosphere getting hotter. “Joy… can we go to your apartment? Joy ..." The woman was getting wilder. Without speaking, Jordan pulled her away. He took Ellen through Ronald and Warren who started to have fun at their place. “Joy… remember your wife!” Warren exclaimed. Deliberately, he teased Jordan, he wanted to see the playboy
Clarabelle was feeling up and down. But she had to stay calm and looked strong in front of her father. She didn't want her father's health to improve instead of getting better if she got bad news.Clarabelle stood, right beside Adriano and held his hand. "Jordan is on business, Pa. He'll be here when he's done. I didn't want to bother him. Please, just take a rest.""Alright, darling. As long as you guys are okay, I've calmed down." Adriano's thin smile tugged at his lips. Then he closed his eyes. He needed a lot of rest. He had to fight to stay healthy, for Clarabelle's sake. His daughter had been trying to make Adriano's dream come true, she got married, and had a partner in her life. He had to do the same, too, because he wanted to be able to see his daughter longer, if possible until Clarabelle and Jordan had children.Clarabelle was relieved, Adriano didn't ask any further. She sat back in her chair. Inwardly she felt guilty for having to keep to herself the frenzy because of Jor
Crystal was very upset with Jordan, to hear that her grandson was not by his wife's side during this difficult time. Crystal could already guess what Jordan was doing outside the house. If all that time Crystal seemed to be Jordan's fortress in front of his father and mother, this time Crystal would make a deal with him seriously. Jordan was married. He was a husband, the head of the household. He shouldn't only care about himself. Even though Clarabelle was covering up, Crystal knew, Jordan was starting to go crazy again. Just half an hour after calling Clarabelle, Crystal left for the hospital where Adriano was being treated. And on the way she contacted Jordan. "Hello, who is this? You are just been bothering me this early, you know." Jordan's voice was hoarse. He seemed lazy to take the call. Crystal became sure what she thought was right. Jordan was in his apartment, with one of the women he used to spend the night with. "You can still relax like that while your wife has to st
Crystal's usually friendly and cheerful eyes stared at Jordan with anger. Crystal asked Jordan to explain why he didn't come home, leaving Clarabelle alone to take care of her father in the hospital. The conversation widened, on what the purpose Jordan married Clarabelle actually for. It was what Crystal wanted to hear from Jordan's mouth."Granny ..." Jordan held his grandmother's shoulders, watching with eyes trying to stay calm. Jordan loved Crystal very much and he didn't want his grandmother to be sad.“Of course, as I said, I wanted to start a good life, having the right one beside me,” Jordan said with all his heart, so Crystal wouldn't think so much about him."But why haven't you come into the office and worked with James yet?" Crystal's gaze had not softened.Jordan was silent. What did Crystal mean this time? Jordan had to be busy at the office. Meetings, checking this and that it made his head full and want to burst! More, if there were such troubled employees, ah ... it w
Clarabelle and Jordan turned to Susan. Clarabelle stood up and walked over to Susan."Thanks for coming," Clarabelle said."How's your daddy?" asked Susan. Her eyes glanced at Jordan. The man was indeed very handsome. Even in his perfunctory costume, just a little tight t-shirt and jeans, he looked cool."He's gotten a little better. Papa is still sleeping," Clarabelle replied.Clarabelle turned to Jordan. "Jordan..."Jordan raised his head and stood up. "Okay. I'll go home. If you need anything just let me know. Okay?"Jordan stepped over to Clarabelle. He grabbed Clarabelle's shoulder, then kissed the beautiful woman's lips and walked away.“You are lucky to have such a good husband. The crazy rich, but willing to accept you as you are. What are you dreaming of, La?” Susan watched Jordan keep walking without looking back.Clarabelle smiled faintly. Susan's words filled Clarabelle's heart with gratitude. Her choice to follow the reality show at that time was not wrong. In the tough s
As promised, Jordan came to meet Jaren at the company headquarters. Jaren was quite relieved to see that his youngest son actually fulfilled his promise. Of course, he didn't just give Jordan a job. He explained all things related to the company.Jordan wasn't completely blind to the company. It was just that all the time he didn't really want to know. For several days Jaren asked one of his assistants to accompany Jordan around the company and introduce him to the company. Jordan was forced not to be able to accompany Clarabelle much in the hospital, let alone go to the club. But he tried to show he was serious about his intentions to work."I don't think he's kidding this time, Jay. I'm relieved, Jordan wants to change. And because of that woman. Lala? If she really has the willingness to make Jordan want to care about his life, I will be open to accepting her." Ann-Mary spoke to Jaren that afternoon. Jordan was at the production site with assistant Jaren.Jaren looked at Ann-Mary.
Clarabelle invited Crystal and James to have dinner together. The three of them, without Adriano. The dinner meal was simple but quite enjoyable. Clarabelle was pretty good at cooking. As before, Crystal told a lot of things, making the atmosphere among them not stiff. And James, occasionally looked at Clarabelle, making her a little uncomfortable.“You should come to visit me often, Lala. I want to cook with you. You're ready, right?" Crystal spoke with a beaming face, looking at Clarabelle who was smiling at her."Sure, Granny. As long as Papa is healthy, I will come to see Granny," said Clarabelle.James barely spoke. Only occasionally looked at Crystal and Clarabelle who chatted happily. Clarabelle thought James was very different from Jordan, who was friendly and gentle. James looked cold and very indifferent. Clarabelle wasn't too bothered by it, though Clarabelle knew James didn't like it.“Before I go home, I have to say goodbye to Adriano. It's not good if I don't meet right
“Are you sure, you wanna see Granny today?” Jordan noticed Clarabelle standing in front of the large mirror on her dressing table. Clarabelle combed her long, beautiful, and shiny hair.From the mirror, Clarabelle looked at Jordan who was standing not far from the bed tidying the tie he was wearing."Yes, I have promised. If Papa is healthy, I will visit Granny at least once a week. Papa doesn't mind, Jordan." Clarabelle put the comb back in its place, then turned to look at Jordan."Okay, as long as Papa is okay, I'm up to you." Jordan smiled, grabbed the coat slung over the edge of the bed, and put it on.Clarabelle continued to stare at him. Handsome, dashing, kind, patient, and understanding. Jordan Gerald Hayden's complete package for Clarabelle. It was been almost four months since their marriage, and Clarabelle was even more excited to be Jordan's wife."Why are you looking at me that way?" Jordan unbuttoned his coat, looked at Clarabelle, took three steps, and grabbed Clarabel
"Where's my grandson? I can't wait to hug him!"That cheerful voice sounded crisp. Clarabelle missed her so much. Clarabelle quickly met Crystal who had just stepped into the house."Oh, my God!" Crystal widened when she saw Clarabelle. "Look, honey. Your baby's grown this big."Crystal held Clarabelle's womb and rubbed it with overflowing joy. Clarabelle smiled. Her eyes filled with tears. The warm welcome seemed to wrap up all the things she wanted to forget before. Hayden family. The family will always be a part of her life."How are you, Lala?" Ann-Mary hugged Clarabelle instead. Her sweet elegant voice, Clarabelle also missed."I'm very well." Clarabelle smiled. There was a sense of unease also gathering in her heart. "I'm sorry, for leaving quietly. For sure, I don't want to disappoint anyone. I'm sorry.""My son who doesn't know how to take care of his wife. Why are you sorry? It's Jordan who has to apologize. In the past, he promised
Bright sun. The snow started to melt slowly. Winter was shifting, spring would come in a few weeks. Clarabelle sat by the window. She looked at the street and the scenery in front of the house where she lived. Calm, quiet, and cool. From behind her, the fragrant aroma of hot coffee was wafting into her nostrils. Clarabelle turned her head, Jordan standing with two cups in hand. The handsome face was not smiling, but a cheerful look emerged from the glint in her eyes. "Warm drink for my heart. Just milk. Coffee for me." Jordan handed one cup to Clarabelle. "Ah, I've been imagining sipping hot and fragrant coffee. Why do you give me milk more?" Clarabelle pouted but she accepted the cup from Jordan as well. "You have to be healthy. Later, when our baby is born, you can drink coffee." Jordan sat next to Clarabelle. He inhaled the aroma of coffee in his cup, then took a few sips. "Hm, pregnant women don't have a problem drinking coffee." C
The snow just a few minutes ago stopped. James' black car stopped and parked in the garage of the big house. James got out of the car and quickly turned around, opening the car door from the other side."We are here. Come on, Babe." James held out his hand.Nerry took James' hand and got out of the car. She looked around. The parking lot was just so wide. There were several cars in the garage. All clearly classy cars, cars not seen on the road too often."They are waiting." James smiled. He took Nerry by the hand and ushered her into the house through the side door, straight into the living room."Sir, I'm very nervous." Nerry watched James. The girl's face was blushing. James was smiling broadly with joy."Take it easy. You won't be punished for falling in love with Hayden. And don't call me Sir," James said."Yes, sir. Oh, James? Weird." Nerry smiled faintly. Beautiful, with a blush on her face. James laughed. It was always fun to see Nerr
Jordan stopped in his tracks at the question. What did he just hear? He turned around. His eyes met those beautiful eyes that made him fall in love. He stared at Clarabelle's round and clear eyes."Are you sure, you want to leave me? And our baby?" Clarabelle looked at Jordan. His hand touched his stomach.Jordan was still digesting what happened. His eyes were getting darker."After everything you've done, chocolate shop Lala Joy, leaving your posh Sydney mansion, never minding Hayden's office, and letting all those women go... you're going to walk away from me?" Clarabelle spoke quietly. Her eyes looked shady. Slowly her lips smiled."Lala...." Jordan couldn't believe what he saw. Clarabelle said something beyond her imagination."I miss you too, Jordan Gerald Hayden. Deep in my heart, I always want to hug you." Clarabelle's thin lips curved into a smile again.Jordan immediately came back and held Clarabelle's hand. "What do you say?"
James left his room. He called Susan and was forced to wake her up. The news James gave her about Clarabelle shocked Susan. She quickly got ready and met James in the parking lot. "Susan, help me. This is a bad situation. Jordan did a stupid thing again and hurt Clarabelle." James started driving the car out of the hotel. It was getting light, but the sun would not show itself. "What do you expect from me?" Susan asked. "I'll calm Jordan, he is so down. He's feeling stupid and sorry again. I think he's even more screwed up because their baby is in danger." James sounded restless and worried. "You, I need you to calm Clarabelle. I don't know how she feels about Jordan after this. I'm almost certain she will ask for a divorce." Susan looked at James. Was it that bad? Susan didn't know what to say. She also didn't know what she could tell Clarabelle later either. "I plan to go home today, to Sydney. Because I have an important meeting to attend. I don't know. By the weather and the
Jordan panicked. He trembled to see Clarabelle even having trouble sitting up."Lala... Lala...." Jordan didn't know what to say.While the blood flew and spread over the snow."Jordan, it hurts...." Clarabelle said while holding her womb."Doctor ... we go to the doctor. Wait, I'll take the car. Hold on," Jordan said between confusion and fear.He stood up and walked back to his shop. He had to get the car immediately and take Clarabelle to the hospital. Clarabelle was getting paler. A piercing coldness, accompanied by pain hit her womb, legs, and waist, and spread throughout her body. She could barely move anymore.A few minutes later, Jordan came. He helped Clarabelle into the car. Clarabelle was limp, but her body was also stiff from the cold. With a heart not abysmally, Jordan began to accelerate his car. It wasn't snowing any longer, but the roads were tough enough to walk on, Jordan couldn't have been driving as fast as he usually did."Uhhh ... it hurts ...." Clarabelle squeez
Clarabelle was surprised by Jordan's reaction. She tried to break free, but Jordan would not budge. He was even bolder in action. He kissed Clarabelle. He let go of longing by hugging his wife tightly. Clarabelle initially wanted to rebel. Unfortunately, her heart and longing were not in line. The heart refused, but the longing that Clarabelle felt forced her to accept the intimacy that Jordan threw at her. A strong pounding overtook Clarabelle. A pleasant beat, which raised her desire unstoppable. Clarabelle gave up. She began to enjoy Jordan's touch. "I miss you. So much...." Jordan whispered, softly. Clarabelle was getting excited. There was no refusal, Jordan went further. The game continued. He pulled Clarabelle onto the bed. They continued the journey of longing and love that had been held back for too long because of anger, disappointment, and fear of getting hurt even more. Outside the snow was pouring again. Even the sound of the wind howling could be heard. The longing th
Jordan's car shook. Clarabelle clutched her chest with fear rising so fast. The car nearly collided. Jordan swiftly returned to position and controlled the steering wheel. Fortunately, he was able to dodge so that the collision did not occur."Oh, my god...." Clarabelle still felt her chest beating fast because of the shock.Jordan was back in control of his vehicle. But he was also just as surprised. He took several deep breaths, calming himself down."Sorry, I am sorry," Jordan said without looking at Clarabelle. He focused on driving.Clarabelle didn't answer. In his heart he was grateful, there was no accident. He couldn't imagine if a collision had actually occurred. It wasn't just her and Jordan who were wretched, but the tiny baby in her womb as well.The rest of the way to Jordan's shop, no one spoke. Jordan parked his vehicle and went straight into the garage. Clarabelle went back to holding Jordan's cheek, then to his neck."Hurry up, go inside. You have to take medicine." C
James sharpened his gaze. Nerry's two beautiful and tapering eyes were watery. What was she worried about? Why was the girl so sad?"Nerry, what's wrong? I am serious. I'm not playing with you. I promise....""That's not it. I'm sorry," said Nerry.James covered his mouth. He had better hear what Nerry would tell him. Maybe he was too quick to ask Nerry to be his girlfriend let alone enter into marriage. It felt the same as the story of Jordan and Clarabelle."Knowing you in person, having moments together, for me... is like a dream. It doesn't make sense. You suddenly appeared in front of me. All my days have changed in an instant." Nerry began to express what was raging in her heart.James waited. He knew Nerry wasn't done yet."To be honest, if I'm really with you, I'll be like Cinderella. From a simple life, I will enter a palace. Can I do that, sir? Am I worthy enough to stay by you? To know you are already extraordinary for me."James smiled at Nerry's words. The young woman who
