Chapter 97

Amelia and Axel only left the garden after Joylin called them to have dinner.

“Why are you two staying in the cold? Do you want to get sick?”

“No mom, the view outside was just beautiful and we lost track of time,” Amelia spoke. She had calmed down and her choked voice had returned to normal.

“Go inside and wash your hands, dinner is ready.” Joylin urged.

“Sure.”

The four people sat at the round table. It was quiet and peaceful. There was no awkwardness and it seemed as if they had done this a million times in the past.

After dinner, Axel and Amelia stood up to leave. Although Joylin urged them to stay, they declined.

“Mom, you can keep dad company. It is getting late and tomorrow we have to go to work.”

“Okay, take care on the road, and remember to call me when you arrive.”

“Okay.”

“Can I speak to dad for a moment?” Axel asked. He had felt awkward at first and did not know how to address Jackson, but since they have eaten at the same table, it meant that they ha

    Chapter 98 At the hospital… After crying her heart out, Bella finally had the energy to look at the divorce papers. She could not believe that she was going to be a divorcee as soon as she placed her signature on those papers. “Mom, are you really going to sign those papers?” Layla asked when she saw her mother struggling to come to terms with what was happening. It was evident from her actions that she was not ready to divorce her dad. She must still love him so much. “What other choice do I have? With all the evidence that your father has, even if I was to take the matter to court, I will still lose.” Bella said. She watched as her dream was being destroyed in front of her eyes but there was nothing she could do about it. Her beautifully crafted dream had crumbled and all that remained were bits and pieces. “Why don’t you ask grandpa for help? I think that he might have a way of making dad change his mind.” Layla spoke. When Bella heard Layla’s suggestion, she was stunned for

    Chapter 99 The following morning… Jackson woke up early. Actually, he hadn’t closed his eyes as he had spent most of his night staring at Joylin. Her face was as beautiful and nothing has changed about her. He could not get enough of her so, all he could do was look at her. He woke up and headed to the kitchen to make breakfast. Although he was the governor, he was used to taking care of himself as he did not like people invading his privacy. He also liked cooking so, whenever he was free, he would make himself delicious meals. But every time he entered the kitchen, he ended up cooking Joylin’s favorite meals which have also become his favorites over the years. Joylin, who was deeply asleep, was woken up by the tempting aroma of food coming from the kitchen. She was shocked and immediately opened her eyes. She wondered who had entered her house so early in the morning and was cooking because she stays alone. But as she looked a the bedroom, she realized that this was not her roo

    Chapter 100 Seeing that he could not convince Jackson otherwise, Stephens could only sigh in regret. “Since you have made up your mind, I think there is nothing I can do to make you relent. I just hope that you know what you are doing and that you will not regret your decision later on.” “You don’t have to worry about that. I know what I am doing and I am ready to bear all the consequences.” Jackson said in a firm voice. Stephens did not say anything. He knew that if they took the matter to court, they will be the ones to lose and they might even be required to compensate Jackson for everything he had lost in raising a child that is not his. He did not dare take that risk. So, all he could do was let him go and set him free. He would just consider this a failed mission. “I need to leave with the divorce papers. I want it to start being processed as soon as possible.” Jackson spoke. Stephens had no choice but to call Bella to his study room. “You need to sign the divorce papers

    Chapter 101 Axel returned to his office the moment the meeting concluded. Amelia was not on the sofa so, he guessed that she might be resting. “Call me Luc,” Axel instructed Peter. Luc was the head of the Public Relation department and he helped many artists overcome a lot of scandals. There was no case that he ever failed to crack and everyone in the industry respected him. Just like Axel, he was legendary in his own field and he now only dealt with cases involving A-list celebrities. Luc rushed to Axel’s office the moment he was summoned. Of all the people he had met, Axel was the only person he respected, well, it was more of fear because the man was very unpredictable. He might be laughing with you one second but the next, you might find yourself on the deathbed from his rage. “Boss, you called for me?” Luc said respectfully. “Yes. How are the preparations going?” Axel asked. “I have already contacted all the media houses, I am just waiting for the statement to be release

    Chapter 102 After her short speech, Amelia was directly led out of the conference room. The reporters did not get even the chance to apologize to her let alone ask questions. “Well, although we have not managed to interview Amelia, we have a lot of exclusive news. I cannot wait to go back and write articles.” “What are we waiting for? Let us go.” The reporters left one after another with satisfied grins on their faces. Stars had not disappointed them just like they had thought. In the CEO’s office… “Are you sure that it was okay? Won’t they say that I am already behaving arrogantly?” Amelia asked. She looked at Luc then at the nonchalant Axel. “Everything is okay. Although the reporters had come with the intention of making things difficult for you and us, we countered them before they had the chance of saying anything. Anyone who tries to say anything about you must be sick in his or her head.” After hearing Luc’s words, she turned and looked at Axel. Axel smiled at her ligh

    Chapter 103 Amelia and Axel were the only people the remained in the huge building after everyone left. The whole office was eerily quiet but the two people did not feel lonely. That was because they only had each other in their eyes and they viewed the other as their world. “I can’t believe that you have let all your workers go just like that. You must be the best boss in the whole world.” Amelia commented. “You also want to take the day off?” “Nope. But I don’t know what to wear to the dinner party.” “Come help arrange these documents and I will help you prepare for the dress,” Axel said. Amelia did not hesitate as she walked over to his desk. If Axel was working, then she would help him. She did not want to go home and feel lonely. It was better if she stayed with him, that way, she might learn something new about him. “By the way, apart from working, what other hobbies do you have?” Amelia asked as she cleared the drawers. “Is working a hobby?” Axel inquired. “To you, it

Stars Entertainment Agency not only dealt with models but also singers, actors, dancers… almost all the entertainers were found at Stars. The secretaries and assistants from the company could not help but squeal every time they saw their favorite idols. “Wow, is that Casandra? I heard that she won the best international model awards and her boobs are awarded number two among the most beautiful boobs in the world.” “Wow, today is definitely going to be a historic event. A lot of our international celebrities are back home for the annual awards ceremonies and I heard that all of them are going to make an appearance tonight.” the staff from Stars were excited as they chatted animatedly. “Girl, I love that bitch. Just look at how she takes over the red carpet every time she makes an appearance. Her personality is also nice and she is not as arrogant as those B-list or C-list celebrities who

After Axel arrived at the dinner party, she had let loose and had ended up drinking what her body could not handle. “I won’t ever allow you to drink again next time,” Axel said as he hugged the woman by the waist with one hand. In his other hand were her purse and her shoes that she had removed while they were in the car. “I… am so… happy dar…ling.” Amelia stammered. “I know. But no more drinking.” Axel insisted. He threw the things he was carrying in his hands on the sofa and lifted Amelia in his arms. He headed to the bathroom in huge strides. After filling the bathtub, he took the woman who was leaning against the wall as if she was about to fall and placed her in the bathtub filled with warm water. “Stay here for a while, I will go and get the sobering medicine for you,” Axel spoke and left the bathroom. He came back a while later with a few pills in his hands but the woman had already fallen aslee

I should have noticed that she was to feel well a long time ago. Why did I realize it just now?” Axel was stunned. He never imagined that his son would be sensitive to that extent. “I am the one to blame. If I haven’t been too busy with work, your mom would be okay. I have failed her.” “Come here.” he summoned his son and then pulled him into his embrace. He had been too busy recently that he had failed to notice the abnormalities surrounding Amelia. He only prayed that it was nothing serious. After what seemed like forever, the doctors finally exited the emergency room. “How is my wife?” Axel did not hesitate to ask. “Don’t worry,

    Chapter 147 “Axel, you are finally willing to show yourself. I am glad that you did because I want you to experience the pain that you have never experienced. The pain of having to watch your loved ones fall in front of you without doing anything.” Charles spat. “Before you condemn me, please watch this,” Axel said as he threw a phone at Charles. Charles caught it and the moment his finger touched the screen, a video started to play out. It was the courtroom and there was a case in session. Although Charles did not know what it was, he decided to watch it. But at the end of the video, his face was contorted and a look of disbelief washed over his face. “I told you that I had nothing to do with that car accident but you never listened. If you had been in the country for the past few years, you would not have wasted your time doing all these.” Axel said coldly. “No! This can’t be real. You are the one who caused the death of my brother.” “If you don’t believe me, the culprit is a

Although being parents demanded more from them, Axel and Amelia felt accomplished every time they finished a day. “I have never known that you are good with kids,” Amelia said as she watched Axel bathing their son, Derek. “I have a great teacher with me. What is there for me not to learn?” Axel asked. Amelia blushed at his words. Ever since he became a father, Axel had been treating her extremely well. Sometimes, she felt like she was soaked in honey. It was sweet but not sickening. After putting the little ones to sleep, Axel approached Amelia. “Are you still… you know?” Axel asked in a deep voice. It had been three months since Amelia gave birth and they were yet to be intimate. Amelia looked at her husband and felt even more loved. She knew that her husband had been holding it in for a long time, it was finally time for him to get some privileges. “I miss you too,” Amelia said. She missed be

    Chapter 145 “Joylin, thirty years ago, I pledged my love and commitment to you. I promised to love you, honor you, to comfort you, and to keep you. Although I have done almost none of those things in the past twenty-something years. From today onwards, before God and before our family, I want to promise you that I will forever hold your hand, I will give you a shoulder to lean on and I will be your best friend. I will make sure that the only thing that can be seen on your angelic face is your beautiful smile and tears of joy. When the sun rises, I want to be by your side, and I want to hold your hand as we watch it set. Joylin, I love you more than anything this world has to offer. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me.”Jackson emotionally said. His words earned a round of applause from the audience. The ladies present all had their eyes wet, especially Amelia, who was emotionally sensitive due to pregnancy. She was a mess as she cried hard in Axel’s arms. Axel was he

    Chapter 144 At the supreme court… The case did not take long because the evidence presented by Axel was very clear and precise. No matter how Mel and Sandra tried to deny it, they only made people hate them more. Layla had also been dragged into the mud by Mel. Mel claimed that the idea to bribe the doctor and have Amelia’s uterus removed originated from her. “Sandra Dawson and Mel Dawson, after looking at the evidence presented to the court of law, I now sentence you to life imprisonment without parole.” “Miss Layla Lightwood, because of your crooked idea, you almost denied someone the right to become a mother. You have been therefore sentenced to twenty years in prison with two years of community service.” … Seasons went by quickly and Amelia was in her final trimester. Axel had taken her on a vacation and they were currently walking on the beach while Amelia took photos from time to time. “Time has gone by really first. I remember the first time we came to this place, I did

They felt like they were a piece of meat on the chopping board. “Insolent, vile creatures,” Winter shouted as he slammed his hand on the table. Mel jumped from fright and almost fell. Sandra’s face was pale as she stared at the stranger woman before her. Her face had been appearing in her dreams almost every night for the past twenty years or so. She never imagined that there will be a day she will see her face to face. She looked at her as if she was looking at a ghost. She never imagined that her sister had survived the fire accident and she will one day show up here. She would have just let the doctors strangle her to death while she was in the hospital. “Can you explain the meaning of this?” Winter said as he played the recording between Mel and the doctor. How has he never realized that he has been hosting wolves in his home, instead of humans? He was so angry that

Joylin and Jackson had come over early in the morning and she and Lily were busy in the kitchen preparing brunch. “I feel like the world has become a completely different place. I thought that there is always something good in every person, but as it turns out, some people are just born evil and that will never change.” Joylin said as she looked at Lily, feeling sorry for her for all the pain she had endured over the years. Although it has only been a few hours since they met, the two women had already connected and now, they talking like long time friends. “Yeah. When you try to see the good in people, you will always be the one getting hurt. If I had known that my son and daughter will go through so much under that woman’s evil hands, I would have come out a long time ago.” “But how comes your husband never realized that he has been living with a fraud all these years?” Joylin aske

Lily was setting the dinner table and after contemplating for a while, Amelia decided to ask the question that was bothering her. “Mom, when are you planning to tell him?” she asked. When Lily heard Amelia call her mom, her hands trembled and she almost dropped the bowl in her hands. She turned to look at Amelia with a stunned gaze, not believing her ears. Had she just called her mom? The emotions that the word had stirred in her heart were so much that she was left speechless. How long had it been since someone called her mom? She almost thought that she will never hear that word, ever again. As for Amelia, she did not feel ashamed when she called Lily mom. She was Axel’s mom so, it came naturally. Although Lily was stunned, she quickly came back to her senses, “What are you talking about?” she asked Amelia as if she was not

What kind of life did he live?” Lily asked nervously. “Why are you suddenly interested in my husband’s life when he was young?” Amelia asked as she squinted her eyes at the woman. Did she not want to hide her identity anymore? Although she had guessed a lot by now, she still needed some clarity to be certain that she was on the right path. “Don’t read much into it. Talking about something that interests you when you are pregnant can help improve your mood. It is beneficial for you and the baby.” Lily said. She had calmed down quite a bit and her voice had returned to normal. She was already by her son’s side and she could not be asking for more. As long as she could personally take care of her son and her daughter-in-law, it did not matter even if she had to hide for the rest of her life. Asking too many questions might also land her in trouble and she was not ready to face the consequences if her identit
