Who was framed “ a calm voice sounded while joining him in the kitchen.

Ava and Alexander turned at once and the person who they saw got them surprised. Ava' s expression says she is amused, Alexander's expression says otherwise.

“ Granpa, what are you doing here early this morning, didn't you sleep at all? Alexander grumbled.

“ Granpa, I am glad you are around, you are just in time for breakfast, Ava said with excitement.

“ Thanks for your warm welcome Ava, Grandson must think I have come to impose on him, I only want to spend some time with my favourite people and nothing else, so I made sure to come early enough and I am luckily to able to join you for breakfast as well, Granpa Pascal replied.

“That's very good Granpa, I am happy you decided to come visit us, I have missed you so much and was thinking to stop by at your place after I return from work early tomorrow, Ava explained.

“ I know you are the only one who wants me around, my grandson doesn't want me in his space, he is all

    “ We will go up to our room then Granpa, so you don't have to stay awake waiting for us to,” Alexander gritted and stood up to go upstairs.“ Good, dear Ava off you go to the room, you two should enjoy the night, Granpa Pascal winked at her and her cheek turned crimson in colour.Ava stood up and walked ahead following Alexander footsteps to the room, she walked into the room and closed the door.Grandpa ‘s Pascal room was just few metres from theirs, thou if they should step out, he might just hear them, so they would just have to keep busy till he sleeps off.Grandpa Pascal exchanged eye contact with Monica before smiling in a cunning way, he finally made his way to his room looking well satisfied.****Ava moved fully into the room and watch as Alexander gaze burned into her, she didn't know what to say because he looked angry and a bit of disdain laid beneath his eyes as he looked her all over.“ What do you think you are trying to do Ava?

    “Have you and Alexander been together?”Ava went silent totally, she was amused by the words of Granpa Pascal, and the answer to his question was clear as ocean. She and Alexander haven't kissed nor hug since they got to know each other. But how was she to say it to the old man? That even their wedding night, Alexander spent it outside with his lover? Ava cleared her thoughts and thought of the best way to answer his question.“ Granpa, I and Alexander haven't been together, we are getting to know each other first and don't want to rush things, so you don't have to worry, Ava replied the best way she could but the look on the old man's face wasn't good.“ He is the one proving difficult right? I can see it, I can see how much you love him Ava, I know how much you care and want to be with him but he has failed to see it which I clearly do , Granpa Pascal said while looking at her with a soft gaze.“ I…… Ava lost the right words to say as she knew all what he is saying was right, but sh

Granpa Pascal asked, diverting his attention to her .“ Work was fine, no trouble. I am feeling energized, Ava joked, clearly meaning to liven the atmosphere, which she successfully did.“ Come sit, let the maid get you something to eat, I know you must be feeling hungry and a bit stressed, Grandpa Pascal persisted.“ Ok, so Alexander what's going on? Ava asked while looking at Alexander who hasn't uttered a word since she walked in.“ Hmmmm ,Old man Stan's wedding anniversary is tomorrow, so he got an invitation which means the both of you are going together, " Grandpa Pasc

    Linda's lips lingered a bit on his cheek before moving away from him, her eyes came in contact with Ava who look a bit annoyed but was masking it well.The gazes on her satisfied her initially agitated self, she just made a move publicly on Alexander and he didn't refuse it even in the presence of Ava who was seated beside him. It was enough to keep the blabbering mouth of the people around shut or probably to give them something more spicy to talk about.“ Hey Linda, I see you are here too, as a guest and exchanging pleasantries, keep it minimal, we don't want you doing that to all married men around even if we are to understand you are simply acknowledging them, Ava voiced while maintaining a calm aura which made Linda fume within.She had thought the stunt she had pulled would put Ava to shame and make her more aware of how much effects she held in Alexander ‘s life but it's seem Ava herself wasn't that easy to intimidate, she didn't even manage to shake her calm expression, Ava wa

    Ava's eyes which was already clouded with tears and slightly blurred trailed to the door when it's busted open, she couldn't pick out who walked in but she felt the two men harassing got thrown off her body.Ava whimper when she heard bashing sounds, a tall masculine figure closed in on her on the bed and his hands was on her body the next second guiding her to sit, the smell of his cologne wavered into her nose as she snuggled into him, she tried to shake off the coolness that came with his touch on her body and struggled to keep her focus and look up to his face, she recognized him……Alexander was fuming as he glared at the beaten figure of the two men at a side. He checked over Ava and saw the upper side of her body was barely covered and took off his suit to cover her up, his eyes darkened when he saw her face was looking swollen, her eyes puffy and the traces of a handprint was glaring on her face.He gritted his teeth and traced his hands on her face, trying to at least soothe t

    Alexander didn’t know how much longer he could fight her intoxicating proximity, her warmth, and the way she gazed at him with those heavy-lidded, vulnerable eyes. When her lips brushed his neck with a soft, unintentional graze, Alexander snapped. His mouth crashed onto hers, firm yet trembling with suppressed emotions. The taste of her—sweet yet dizzying—pulled him under, and for once, his control shattered completely.Ava who wasn't really herself clung at him desperate for his attention, she trailed her hand on his neck, caressing his shoulder, her naked body gliding effortlessly into his own while leaving moans after moans. Alexander pressed his lips intensely on hers and she tried to follow his pace, he nibbled her lower lips , his hands lightly held her delicate waist afraid she might snap if he applied too much pressure, her alluring curves pressed on his body making him cuss out and frantically demand entrance into her sweet mouth.Shit…. Her taste was heavenly and his nose pi

    The sun was beginning to set, casting an orange glow over the neighborhood as Alexander made his way home. His hands gripped the steering wheel, his mind racing with anticipation. Ava's due date was approaching quickly, and every day felt like a countdown. Despite all the preparations, he couldn’t help but feel a growing sense of anxiety creeping in. He wasn’t scared of the responsibility. He was terrified of losing them—Ava, the twins. The thought had gnawed at him for months, and now, as he pulled into their driveway, it all felt too real.His phone buzzed on the seat beside him. My baby love flashed across the screen. A soft smile tugged at the corner of his mouth. Ava must be getting impatient; he was only a few minutes from home, but it seemed like the entire world had shifted in these last few weeks, time stretching and contracting with every passing hour.He reached for his phone, hands still on the wheel.“Hey baby, I’m almost home. You don’t…” His voice trailed off as the car

    Ava’s eyes fluttered open, the harsh hospital lights blinding her for a moment. Her head felt heavy, and her limbs felt foreign, as if they didn’t quite belong to her. She was surrounded by the rhythmic beeping of machines and distant voices. It all seemed muffled, like she was underwater, struggling to reach the surface.But then, she felt something. A warm, comforting pressure on her hand. She turned her head, and there he was—Alexander. His face was so close, inches away, his dark eyes staring at her with an intensity that sent a flutter of nerves through her chest. His hand was wrapped firmly around hers, holding it with a strength that made her feel both safe and vulnerable. His other hand brushed through her hair, gently sweeping it back from her face, his touch so tender it made her heart ache.“Ava,” he whispered, his voice thick with emotion. “You’re awake.”Ava blinked, trying to gather her strength. She gave him a weak smile, wanting to reassure him, even though her body fe

    Ava's world was a blur.Her eyelids felt impossibly heavy as she forced them open, her vision swimming with shapes and shadows. The air smelled damp, thick with something metallic—blood, perhaps. Her head throbbed like it had been split in two, and her limbs felt like they didn’t belong to her anymore.Then, through the haze, a figure appeared.Linda.Her lips curled into a victorious smirk, her sharp eyes brimming with cruel satisfaction.Ava blinked hard, but the scene remained the same. Linda was standing over her, dressed in an elegant white dress, looking completely untouched by the filth and darkness surrounding them. Her blonde curls were perfect, her makeup flawless, as if she had walked right out of a palace and into this nightmare.But it wasn’t Linda’s beauty that made Ava’s stomach churn—it was the expression on her face.She had won. And she knew it."Finally awake?" Linda’s voice dripped with amusement, her arms crossed as she studied Ava like a cat watching a wounded bi

    Linda’s pulse pounded as she stood before Alexander, waiting for his reaction. His silence stretched between them, thick and unreadable, his piercing gaze drilling into her. For the first time in years, she couldn’t decipher what he was thinking.She had expected anger. Maybe a confrontation, accusations. Instead, he did something she never saw coming.He smiled.Not the cold, sharp-edged smirk she had seen before. No. This was slow, almost lazy, as if he had unraveled some great truth.Linda hesitated, thrown off.“I must have worried you,” she murmured, masking her unease with a breathy chuckle. “You’ve been gone all night. What happened?”Alexander exhaled deeply, rubbing a hand through his hair. His posture, once stiff with controlled fury, now eased into something almost vulnerable.“I lost my temper,” he admitted, voice low, as if exhausted. “I’ve been chasing shadows, letting my emotions control me.”He took a step closer, and Linda held her breath. His tone had shifted—softer,

    Alexander sat in the dimly lit study, eyes fixated on the laptop screen while Liam worked tirelessly beside him. Neither of them had slept.Sleep was a luxury they couldn’t afford—not when Ava was missing.The room was silent except for the sound of Liam’s fingers flying across the keyboard, searching through databases, cross-checking records, and digging deeper than ever before. Alexander’s mind, however, was in chaos. His chest was heavy, his thoughts dark.Ava had been acting off before she disappeared, and he had ignored it.Now, every interaction replayed in his head—her distant stares, her hesitation when she spoke, the way she avoided his touch. He should have paid more attention.Liam suddenly inhaled sharply, breaking the silence.“I found something,” he said, his voice tense.Alexander straightened, eyes sharp. “Talk.”Liam turned the laptop toward him. On the screen was a list of hotel logs, timestamps, and security reports.“The Mayfair Hotel,” Liam murmured. “She was ther

    "I believe you are delighted to see me in here. I am the rightful madam of this mansion, and you will do all I tell you without an ounce of resistance. Did I make myself clear?"Linda’s voice rang through the grand living room, filled with arrogance. She sat comfortably on the luxurious couch, legs crossed, smirking as she addressed Monica, the housekeeper.Monica, an elderly woman who had been a part of the household for decades, stood still, her hands clasped together. Though her face remained neutral, there was defiance in her eyes. She had served this household with loyalty and care, and now, here was Linda—someone she never respected—demanding authority.The evil that has been circulating around her young master for years, and she was more than happy Ava became the wife because if not, things would never remain the same.Linda’s lips curled further at Monica’s silence. "I asked a question. Did I make myself clear?"Before Monica could respond, heavy footsteps echoed from the gran

    The door to the mansion closed behind him with a soft thud, but the weight in Alexander's chest was anything but soft. His mind buzzed, reeling from the conversation with Linda. Her words echoed in his mind over and over, suffocating him, dragging him further down with each repetition."You betrayed her, Alexander. You had to know it would come to this."He stumbled through the grand hallway of the mansion, his footsteps heavy, dragging him toward the one place he had hoped he would never find himself again—the bedroom. But it was here, in the silence of the room, that his mind went blank. He leaned against the door frame, unable to fully process what Linda had said.“If only I had known.”The thought kept repeating itself like a mantra. He had been so consumed by his own insecurities, so lost in the façade of control, that he never stopped to consider the consequences of his actions.Had he truly betrayed Ava’s trust?The realization hit him like a punch to the gut. He could feel the

    Alexander tapped his fingers restlessly on the couch, his jaw tightening with every passing second. His phone sat beside him, the screen dark. He had tried calling Ava more times than he could count in the last few hours, but now, the calls weren’t even going through.At first, she had ignored them—he was sure of it. The line had rung, but she never answered. Then, it had gone silent. No ring, no voicemail. Nothing.His frustration deepened. His mind ran in circles, conjuring worst-case scenarios.Where was she?Was she still angry? Had she booked a hotel just to get away from him?That was something Ava would do. She had a stubborn streak, and after their argument, he wouldn’t put it past her to stay out just to make a point.But—she should have at least texted.She knew he’d worry. She knew he wouldn’t rest until he knew she was safe.Alexander exhaled harshly, rubbing his temples. His patience was wearing thin, and so was his ability to stay calm.The house was eerily quiet except

    Ava stepped out into the open air, inhaling deeply. The crisp morning breeze carried a hint of damp earth, mingling with the faint scent of gasoline from passing cars. The sky was a dull gray, heavy with clouds that threatened rain, but she barely noticed.Her head was a tangled mess, emotions running rampant like a storm she couldn’t control.Sliding into the driver’s seat of her car, she gripped the steering wheel, closing her eyes for a second. Breathe, Ava. Just breathe.She had left the house without a clear destination, but one thing was certain—she needed space. She needed clarity.And she wasn’t going to let things remain this messy.The engine purred to life, and she pulled onto the road, not speeding, not rushing—just driving. The city was awake, the streets filled with people who had their own struggles, their own battles.For the first time in days, she wasn’t drowning in the overwhelming pain of betrayal. Instead, she let herself think.Rewind.Everything started with Ale
