Jade felt sad and scared of meeting that person. His pain from that day is still fresh and hurting him. But he can only pretend to be cool."Mom....." Jane called her mother, who immediately understood what her daughter was trying gist her."Oh my God Jade, I'm so sorry son. I didn't mean to say....." Ashley words were cut off by his son."Chill mom, I'm fucking cool okay. I'm really over that my past. Besides mom, we are on our way to the house. We shouldn't think about any sad moment."Jade tried sounding unfazed but his family could see and hear the sadness and pain from his face and voice."That's my boy. I know you are strong like me." David chipped in making all of them smiled."Sure....sure, the whole country knows he's your son and daddy's favourite at such. Don't you feel ashamed of yourself Dave." Ashley said to her husband and rolled her eyes.And that gesture made the kids laughed. Their parents really knows how to put a smile on their face whenever they feel down. And that
No matter how prepared Jade was, he still couldn't believe that a girl had her hand interlocked with that guy...... ERIC. The person who rejected him in the worse possible way.Eric looked at Jade with emotion Jade could never understand . There was sadness and regret written all over Eric's face."Why would he even feel sad and regret?" Jade sadly chuckled at himself inwardly.Eric let go off the hand of the girl he was holding and made an attempt to walk to Jade. But Jake soon realised what was happening with his brother and went back to him."Jade ..... everyone is watching you. Remember Dad's words, pretend you don't know him or don't see him. You can do this Bro..." Jake whispered into his brother's ears.Jade soon came back to his senses and put on his fake smile again.Jane joined them as soon as they reached downstairs. They triplets walked over to their parents who were also talking with their best friends."Hello Uncle Xander.... Uncle Brian... Uncle Ken and Aunt Kate." the
Jade felt his heart torn into thousands pieces again as his tears continued flowing....He just kept staring at Eric's face. He he had hurt him again."You surely never seized to hurt me over and over again." with that being said, Jade left feeling extremely heartbroken."Jade... Jade wait ..... Jade it's not what you think... Jade please wait... I can explain...." Eric ran after him but Jade ignored everything that he said.Eric turned back to stunned Rebecca. " What's going on Eric....? Why was Jade so mad at you..?" Rebecca asked pretentiously not knowing what was actually happening."It's nothing but it's also something at the same time. I .... I was trying to explain what happened back then at college to Jade. But with what you said when you came, I think he misunderstood your words." Eric said desperately. His good chance had been ruined. He didn't know when he can finally get a chance to explain himself again."Oh really...? So that's what happened. I'm sorry Eric, I didn't me
Kingsley noticed Jane's eyes were flustering continuosly. Before he could even asked what was wrong with her, Jane collapse and fell on his chest...."Hey .... hey wake up... Hey..!!" Kingsley called out but Jane had already lost her conscious.Jade and Jake instantly rushed to help Kingsley. But before they could even reached Jane, Kingsley had already carried her in his arms and ran downstairs.Both of them were stunned but soon recovered from it and also ran after Kingsley.Ashley couldn't help it, seeing her precious daughter bled that much amount of blood and even lost consciousness.She cried a lot whilst following them. David was no different. He holds his wife and followed the rest to the hospital.But Xander, Brian, Ken and their son Eric stayed behind and took care of Lucien.Kate also stayed behind and took care of the guests and helped them to leave the house.She apologized to them on behalf of David and Ashley which they all understood and left.The party was indeed ru
"I'm the person in your heart." Kingsley teased her and smiled sweetly when Jane's eyes met his.....Jane was dumbfounded and spellbound by Kingsley smile.They kept staring at each other for sometime before Jane came back to her senses.She immediately pushed Kingsley away with all the little might she was having."Don't you dare touch me ever again. Your filthy hands irritate me. Who do you think you are to touch me ? Yes, you helped me out with Luc ...... I mean that bastard called Lucien.But that doesn't makes you different from him. All of you men are nothing but a rotten food. A trashy food as such.And by the way, why are you even here....? Oh I see, did you come here to ask for money for your help earlier on.....?Then don't worry, because my Dad is filthy rich and he can give you any amount you will ask for as long as you leave me alone.So kindly look for him and get out from my side." Jane made sure she was rude enough to Kingsley.Kingsley just stood there and listened to
"So would you want to go to our house for the night....?" Jade questioned Kingsley but Kingsley attention was only on one person...... JANE !!!.Jade just smiled at them and waited for a while before clearing his throat to gain Kingsley attention ."Uhm ..... sorry what were you saying ?" Kingsley asked after realising that everyone was looking at him.A small blush crept on his cheeks out of embarrassment.Jade chuckled at him before he continued..... "I was asking if you would like to spend the night at our penthouse ?" "Oh No no no....." Kingsley immediately rejected Jade's offer .Truly speaking , it didn't surprised them. Because the little moments they've spent with Kingsley, they realised he's a man of principles."But why....? Do You have a place to stay for the night ? I mean a friend's place ?" Jake asked him."Uhm I don't but......" Kingsley wanted to say something but Jane shut him up with her words."Then just shut up and go to our house. You should be grateful we are wi
Jake eyes became somehow sad from his brother story. He couldn't just stand there and listen to his brother's cries so he left.Kingsley also didn't know how to calm or comfort Jade so he decided to just sit beside him and allowed him to cry all his emotions out. For a grown up man like Jade to cry like that showed Kingsley how much he was hurting. Jade cried for a while before Kingsley felt his slow breath indicating that he was asleep. Jade was indeed heavier and build up than Kingsley so it was difficult for Kingsley to carry him to his room.Kingsley opted for what was easier for him.Slowly and cautiously, Kingsley helped Jade on his best and settled him on it before he went to the bathroom and brought a wet towel and wiped Jade's face.After he was done cleaning him, Kingsley also climbed up on the bed and allowed sleep to take over him.NEXT MORNING Jade woke up in a familiar yet unfamiliar room. He rubbed his eyes in other to stir him from waking up. After sitting up on t
Both Kingsley and Eric went straight to the coffee shop and sat across each other after they made their order.Non of them took the initiative to talk first. They just sat there looking everywhere but the other person. "So.... what did he tell you ? I mean what did Jade tell you about me..... or should I say about us?" Eric decided to tell first.Kingsley turned his head to face him. He shook his head before he spoke. " Jade didn't actually tell me much because he was all fucking emotional. You know, from what and how he described everything, you hurt him and in fact, you are still hurting him.Jade is stucked in the past. He loved and still love you but....." Kingsley couldn't complete his statement when Eric cut him off."AND I FUCKING LOVE HIM !!" well, that came out like a shout which gained few eyes. Kingsley was shocked by Eric sudden outburst. "Well relax man. I sure know you do. But since that's the case, why didn't you and still don't tell Jade about your side of the story?
The next day, Eric woke up in bed all alone without Jade by his side like he always does. He went to the bathroom to search for him, but he wasn't there. “Where the heck is he?” Eric questioned himself as he came downstairs to look for him.It was already 8:37 am and breakfast was served.“Good morning Aunt, and Uncle Dave.” Eric greeted them as he took his seat. His eyes roamed the house, hoping to spot Jade.“Good morning, son, why are you alone here? Where is your fiancé?” Ashley asked Eric, as she also couldn't see Jade.“I have no idea, Aunt. He wasn't in bed when I woke up,” Eric answered sadly. He's used to waking up with Jade and receiving morning kisses. But today, Jade left him in bed to only God knows where.“Good morning, mom, and Dad.” Jake greeted his parents as he helped Annabelle with her seat before he also took his seat.“Good morning son, Anne, how was your night?” David responded to them.“Pretty good Uncle…” Annabelle answered him as she proceeded to serve Jake.“
“Fuck you, Lucas… AIDEN IS MY SON!!” Jade thundered angrily as he moved forward to take Aiden from Lucas's lap, but Derrick stopped him.“Please Jade, just give him a few minutes, please …” Derrick requested him with pleading eyes.“Wh- what do- you me- mean by – that?” Marcus asked with his voice quivering. He didn't even realize that he had let his guard down.Lucas smiled sadly at him as his tears continued flowing. “Can you free Rihanna first, brother?” Marcus didn't need to be told twice as he hurriedly cut the rope that was tying Rihanna. He Fred the handkerchief from her mouth too and immediately turned his attention back to Lucas.Rihanna immediately ran to Lucas and picked Aiden from his lap, as she hugged her sleeping son tightly to her chest and sobbed. “That's right, brother, you heard me right. Aiden is not the son of Jade, HE IS YOUR BIOLOGICAL SON!!!” Lucas stated as matter of fact to his brother. Marcus, who felt like he was going insane didn't know how to digest the
Jade immediately drove his car to the location Marcus gave him.But before that, he made sure everyone else was okay and safe. Jade didn't know what the outcome of his unfaithful meeting with Marcus would be, so he called Derrick and informed him of the situation. Jade asked if Lucas was safe in the house with him which Derrick confirms for Jade's thumping heart.“What is wrong, baby? Why do you look so tense? What did Jade call you for? Why did he call you?” Lucas asked Derrick when he saw the disturbed face of his boyfriend.Though Marcus promised Jade not to say anything to Lucas, but he has to, he has to say something to him. Maybe only Lucas can stop his brother's madness.“My love, we have a big problem… Your brother kidnapped Rihanna in exchange for you, but Jade refused and warned him to stay away from you.He asked Jade to meet him for a duel and whoever wins between them gets to keep Rihanna to himself. But Baby, you and I know that your brother will not duel with Jade. He
THE NEXT DAY “Good Morning, Princess, how was your night?” Kingsley asked Jane with so much love in his eyes. Jane blushed, remembering the intense lovemaking between them last night. She hid her face in his naked chest and answered… "My night was perfect.” Kingsley chuckled at her reaction. “ Let me see your face, Princess,” Kingsley said and lifted her head to meet his. He just kept staring at her for a while before he voiced out. “I really did miss you when I was away, Princess. I kept thinking if you have already forgotten about me. If you have already moved on with your life with someone else… I'm sorry, Princess, I'm sorry it took me so long to return. I'm sorry I didn't know you were also hurting. I'm sorry I --” Jane shut him up with a kiss. They kissed for a while before they broke their kiss. “It all belongs to the past now love, what matters is that we are here together in each other's arms… I love you.” Jane whispered and pecked his lips. Kingsley nodded his head
“Dad, what do you mean by what you just said? What happened to my baby-- I mean Eric? Why did he stab his Papa?I know you just said it was because of me, but it is hard for me to believe that.Maybe he did it under the influence of alcohol. Or perhaps--” Jade started panicking with each of his questions. “Or perhaps what son? I'm sorry to tell you this, Jade, but I think you are just looking for an excuse to keep on distancing yourself away from him.” David cut him off.“But Dad, he rejected me five years ago. He moved away from me on that day when I reached out to him. He was the one who left me, Dad. I didn't.” Jade defended himself as he tried to keep his tears at bay.David heaved a sigh and gave his son all his attention. “You see what I was trying to tell you all a while ago? We all believe what our eyes see before it has proven otherwise. I tell you what son, if Eric didn't move away from you that day, perhaps you might be in your grave at this moment. You wouldn't have eve
“Dad? What are you here?” Jade asked not in a rude manner, but he was rather surprised to see his father at his door. “Uhm, can I come in?” David asked his surprised son. “Yeah, sure, come in Dad,” Jade said as he hurriedly opened the door for him. David walked inside and both Annabelle and Kingsley, together with Rihanna, were surprised to him there. “Uhm, hi… I hope everyone is doing great?” David asked, feeling awkward. “We are doing great Uncle, how are you and Aunt Ash doing too?” Annabelle asked walking to David. She greeted him with a hug which soothed David's thumping heart of anxiety. “We are doing great, Princess,” David said after he broke from their hug. “Uncle Dave…” Kingsley said as he extended his hand to shake David's. “King, how are you doing? You really look manly than before.” David said, making Kingsley blush and scratched his head. Both Kingsley and Annabelle actually held nothing against David. He didn't wrong them in any way, they just didn't like how
“AND WHO SAID HE KILLED ME!!” There came Annabelle's voice, which dropped like a bomb on everyone. She walked in looking more gorgeous than ever with Rihanna beside her.“DADDY…!!!“UNCLE….”Jaden and Aiden's voices also came in as they ran to Jade, who crouched down and hugged them with a big smile.No words can explain what or how everyone was feeling. The word shock can never compare to what and how they were feeling.“My Anne…?” Jake whispered, not believing his eyes.Ashley, David, Jane, Brian, Ken, and Eric were stupefied by what they were seeing. Not to mention the visitors. They knew Annabelle was dead, so seeing her in flesh and blood turned them into another world.“ANNE!!” Eric exclaimed as he ran to his sister and hugged her to see if she was a ghost. He couldn't believe that it was actually his sister.Annabelle hugged him back as the siblings cried. She can be angry with anyone except her brother Eric.She knew Eric never intended to hurt Jade. Not only that, but she kne
They had a pleasant flight back to South Country, except with Aiden and Jaden a little disturbed.They all wore masks, except Derrick, as they arrived.As soon as they came out from the airport, Jaden and Aiden run to a certain figure waiting for them.“Grandpa!!” The little boys screamed as they ran to Xander. “Hey, my Angels… How are you doing?” Xander exclaimed as he crouched for the kids to reach him.He picked them up and spun them around, making them giggle in happiness. “Grandpa, we've missed you. Why did you stop visiting us?” Jaden asked as he played with Xander's bear.“Oops, my bad buddies. Grandpa had been caught up with work here and there. That's why I couldn't come to visit you before you came.” Xander explained to them.Aiden rolled his eyes and wiggled from Xander's embrace. Xander looked at him puzzled. “ What's up, buddy? Why are you angry?” Xander asked as he tried to reach him, but Aiden moved away from him and went to Jade.“My Dad said we shouldn't accept an a
FIVE YEARS LATER…It's been five good years since everything happened, and five years since Jade left the country.Many things have happened between both parties. Ken and Brian went crazy when they found out that Jade had left the country.They even searched other countries just to have him arrested, but they couldn't find him.Derrick, on the other hand, returned to the South country the next day he took Jade and the rest to the North Country. He would rather not cause any suspicion. He stayed with his parents for a week before he returned to the North Country.There, he told Jade and the rest about his story with Lucas.Surprisingly, he didn't even know Lucas before. He just saw a picture of a young, handsome boy sleeping on the hospital bed that Rihanna sent him.His heart sped just at the mere picture, and that was when he decided to help Lucas to recover and then claim him as his.And he really achieved his goal after two good years of Lucas being in a coma, he finally woke up.
