Chapter 101.Finn's POV.I was done arranging the room already, and it was exactly just like I have wanted. Ria would be coming for a visit today, but I wasn't sure if she was coming with her man.I know I might sound crazy when I say this, but ever since I saw her the other day. I couldn't stop thinking about her.I knew it wasn't possible for ent k end up with her, but at least I should be able to save her from Jade. Jade wasn't ready to tell me her next plan, because she think I might help Ria, ahd shd was right. This was just an opportunity for me to get to see her again. I wasn't sure if he husband was going to allow her to come alone, but it would be preferable if she came in her own.Jade was going to freak out if she knew about it. She would be scared at first thinking I was trying to make a deal with the enemy which was totally understandable.I checked Ria's current location and she was almost at my house here in Los Angeles. I made up my mind that I was going to stay here
Chapter 102. Finn's POV.Jade was still breathing heavily as she just stormed into him room. Her eyes darted around the house as she then saw all of us who were sitting there. We looked at her in awe. I was more shocked than the other, because I just told them about them coming and she was already here. She positioned properly as she then cleared her throat."I told you guys that we were pretty close, so don't be bothered by her behavior." I apologized for the way she has just acted which was quite embarrassing, honestly."Oh! I am so sorry." Jade apologized immediately. She was about to shout shouting at the me she to the message that she has seen, but she never knew they were going to e here already, because I didn't tell her when they would be coming. "I didn't know that you two would be here already." She but her lips in awkwardness. I bet everything was looking so awkward right now, understandable. "It's okay. You are here now." I replied to her taking a huge sigh. "I will
Chapter 103Ria's POV."Don't tell me that you will be going for that pop-up event." Luca said, while I didn't pay him attention. I knew that he didn't want me to go, but there was nothing that he could do about it once I made up my mind."Yes, you know I have to attend events like that in order for me to be able to build my brand and make connections. That kind of event only happens once in a while." I answered him, and it turned out that he was still trying hard not to make me attend the event."I'm sorry, but you cannot change my mind on this one anymore." I replied to her, and I saw the disappointed look on his face."You can just find something else to do that day. You might even be busy at work or something." I shrugged my arm, but it seemed like he doesn't still careWe were yet to come up with the babies names, we wanted to d o it the other day, but we couldn't think of what to name him.I got a call from Liam which interrupted our discussion, I was happy that my father was fi
Chapter 104Ria's POV.*FASHION POP-UP EVENT*We were both dressed up for the event."You look so great, what's the name of the designer brand?" Luca walked into the room after he saw what I was putting on."I designed this shit myself." I mentioned to him, and I then saw the expression on his face. He was looking so shocked, while he dropped his phone and walked up to me. He circled me using close to minute, if not more than a minute to check how good the dress was."This was definitely going to be a crowd puller." He complimented."I know, right!? It was hard making a design like this, but man gotta try his best." He mentioned, and I totally agreed with him."So let's go now." He grabbed the keys wanting to leave the room not until he got a call which distracted him. "What the hell!" He shouted over the phone immediately he got the information, while I wondered what it was about."Miguel just called me and told me that there was something going on. I have no choice, but to leave n
Chapter 105Ria's POV.Reporters, search rescuers, policemen, medical teams, audiences, and families were all gathered at the scene. I stood close to the edge of the cliffs while I watched as the search rescuers ran their dog through the thick bushes at the side of the road, which was basically the edge of the cliff."You should have this." Liam handed over the bottle of water to me, and I then gulped down the whole thing. He was the first person to arrive at the scene since the location was close to where he was.I was able to call him even with my body on the floor, but my phone was right in my hands immediately I got down from the car.Unfortunately for me, there was no car that was passing which made things worse.My body was on the ground, as he then tried lifting me up when he arrived on the scene.Blood was literally flowing down my hands as I then pointed at the cliff where his car had fell down. "Please, can you get to to save him? His car fell right there?" I remembered how
Chapter 106Ria's POV.My eyes opened slowly while I felt my body aching. It was so painful as I tried to stand up. The first thing I saw was the blue sky, and the sun was yet to rise.I realized how hard the floor was, and it then dawned to me.I slept by the roadside yesterday. The only car that was around belonged to the police and the search rescuers. "Oh shit!" I cussed while I tried to stand up. The reporters and the crowd who were standing here were all gone.I insisted on sleeping here last night, and they couldn't do anything. Where the hell was Liam? I remembered how much Liam tried convincing me, but there was no way that I would be able to change my mind."Wait! Don't tell me that you haven't found him yet?" One of the police who was standing next to me looked at me after I had questioned him."Unfortunately, that is the case now." The police mentioned. "We were waiting for you to wake up, and now that you did. We will soon leave." He added feeling no remorseful."What d
Chapter 107Ria's POV.It had been two months since the incident, and things haven't been going well for me, honestly. I wished things were going to get better, but they weren't.I was at the verge of using all my strength just to make that Miguel doesn't get to take over what Luca worked hard for.Just a few days after he was declared missing, he didn't even wait for things to calm down before he got to announce to everyone that he might get to be the CEO.Things got really messy and I made sure to hse the power of the media not to make him take over the position. I believed that Luca was still going to come back, that was the reason why I did all of thatOne month later, he tried taking over again but I interrupted the shareholder's meeting and stopped him again.I already used all the approach I had just for to protect the company, and I didn't think I have the strength to continue to do that. I have tried the best that I could to make sure to There was Jade too. Fighting hard alo
Chapter 108Ria's POV.I lay on the hospital bed, clutching the rails as another contraction ripped through my body. My mom stood beside me, her hands wrapped tightly around mine.It has been up to a few hours, and I have been this way. Even after using the epidural, I thought it was going to be easy.I could still feel slight pain; I wondered what would have been my situation if he didn't bother to use the epidural needle."It's okay, baby, you're doing great," she whispered, her voice calm and soothing. I stared at her while I imagined that it was him who was talking to me and telling me those words."This is so fucking hard." I mentioned while I held on to her hand very strongly. She stared at me straight into my eyes.My mom's grip tightened. "I know, sweetie, but you're strong. You can do this."The doctor urged me to push, and I took a deep breath, bearing down. My mom helped me sit up, her arms around me, supporting me."Push, Ria, push!" the doctor said, her voice firm but enc
EPILOGUE IIRia happily served her kids a slice each of the chocolate cake she had learned to bake for their sakes and watched as they enjoyed it.“Don’t rush the cake, you’ll stain your dress,” she said as she stretched her hand to wipe the side of Aurora and Atlas’s mouths with a napkin.“It’s so delicious, Mom. Will you make us another after Granny’s birthday party?” Aurora said in between mouthfuls as she swung her legs underneath the table. Ria nodded and was just about to give a reply when she saw her husband emerge from the doorway.He looked so smart in his suit, and she just wanted to eat him up as he said, “There’ll be lots of cake there, so why don’t you let your mom rest a little?” He winked at her, waving his undone tie at her, but the children noticed his presence before she could walk up to him.“Daddy!” Aurora was the first to notice as she hopped off her stool and ran up to hug him. With a smile, he crouched to wrap his arms around her as Atlas ran into his embrace as
EPILOGUE IFive Years LaterLuca tiptoed into the master’s bedroom and shut the door quietly behind him as he peeked around for any sight of his wife.“Ria,” he called gently as his eyes scanned the room until they finally settled on her standing in front of the dressing mirror.His mouth ran dry as he saw the way the dress shimmered under the lights and how it hugged her delicate curves. He hated the fact that there would be a lot of people who would get to see her in that dress tonight.She was checking herself out in preparation for the party they would be attending that evening.The moment she turned around and did a swirl, he knew he needed to have a taste of her before they left, or else he’d be restless throughout the night.His heart was racing as he approached her from behind, and it felt like he was falling in love with her all over again.“I feel like the luckiest man in the world,” he said as he held her waist, and they both stared into the mirror.“Luca.” She turned and g
Chapter 140 (FINALE)Chapter 75Jade's POV.I have waited long enough for this day. I wasn't just going to be called off that way. My father helped with the case that was filed against me.If I don't get to do the right thing now, they might keep on filing cases against me and that was why I needed to do this The fact that I was going to get to kill Ria today would be the best thing that I have ever done for myself. I have always wished for the day that I wouldn't get to see her anymore.Finn promised that he was going to help me get what I wanted, which I was really happy about. Having someone to threaten was really a good thing in life. Now, he was even willingly to help me do things.I heard the news that she was going to get married to Luca. I wouldn't let that happen again while I was still alive. "Luca would come and save me." She said it with so much confidence, which made me chuckle. She was really confident this night and with the look of things, she might have a few things
Chapter 139Chapter 74*Two Weeks After*Ria's POV.My bridal shower was finally going to happen this night. I would be getting married tomorrow!We have been making preparations for this for the past month! Jade would be getting married in the next two weeks, which was really cool! I was so happy that our marriage was really close.I wished we could get to do it the same day.I waited for her to come over for my bridal shower. Everywhere was well lit up, and it was really beautiful.We were using the longue, which was in Luca's house. Luca left the house for us to enjoy, and I bet he must be with Liam right now. He barely had any friends, and probably with my dad told.I heard the doorbell ring as I rushed towards the door immediately. The moment I had been waiting for was finally here. I opened the door slowly, which revealed Zoa.I hugged her very tightly before I left her.It's funny how the bridal shower was only going to involve the both of us, probably alongside with my mom and
Chapter 138Liam's POV.Falling for Zoa was something that I never imagined was going to happen. I watched she as she kept on ranting but u couldn't listen to a single word she was saying.My gaze wre focused on her naked belly since she was putting on a crop top. I wanted to place my head in between those chubby legs. The effect she had on me these days was really one of a kind.I was sitting in the chair in my room, and yeah we have been living together ever since he father died. I never knew she had this side of her. It was so cute to see her rambling this way."Are you even listening to what I was saying." She interrupted my thoughts making me almost flinch. She used the clothes that were in her hands to hit my head, as she accidentally trip falling in my legs.Her hands were on my dick right now, and I bet she could feel how hard they were! Fuck what the hell was happening."It's so hard to resist you." I let out my confession. "I've been meaning to tell you this these days, but
Chapter 137Ria's POV*THE NEXT MORNING*"We spent the entire night together, but you are just telling me about the fact that you recovered your memory. Can you see how heartless you are?" I scolded Luca as we were on our way to the company.We were fucking together throughout last night, and the reason he had disappeared and made me worried for two days was because he wanted to surprise him.He told me that he was going to get the investors back, and I kept on asking him how he was going to do that, only for him to let me know now that he had recovered his memories already."What procedure did you use in getting them back? I think you are suffering from the side effects." I mentioned it to him, as he chuckled slightly again. There was nothing funny in what I had just said.If only he knew how worried I was, only for him to be hiding somewhere even when his company almost lost all its value."I am really sorry, and I will repay you in any way that I can." He promised me."Thank God yo
Chapter 136Ria's POV*THREE DAYS AFTER*"I don't have anything to do with your husband; you should go and look for him. Who knows? He might have lost interest in you since he lost his memories." There was no way Luca was going to leave me."I swear, if anything happens to him, I am going to make sure that you regret it for the rest of your life." I mentioned to Jade as I ended the call right immediately after.I wasn't really sure if she was the one responsible for him going missing. I was hesitant to report it to the police, hoping that he was going to come home, but right now I think it is the right time for me to let the police know about everything.I was about to walk up the stairs, not until I heard the sound of the bell ringing. I walked up to the door and saw a man standing there."Uhm, you ordered this." He stretched the box towards me."I think you got the wrong address. I didn't order anything." I said in defence. I have seen a lot of tricks like these being used these day
Chapter 135Luca's POVI wanted to know a lot of things about myself. Yeah, I might be performing well even with my memory loss, but it felt like I was empty. It really feels like there was something missing in me.I have been going to therapy secretly without Ria knowing, and I decided to go for one today since she went for her friend's daughter's funeral. I thought it was going to be a very perfect opportunity for me to go."Can you just come up with a fast technique? I need to recover my memory as fast as possible." I urged the doctor."You told me that you do see a few blurry images in your dream, and that means you are close to achieving it." She mentioned."Let's go for the option you mentioned the other day.""No way, I am not going to let you go through all that after the progress that you made already." She opposed, just like I was expecting her to."Exactly! This is my business, and you told me the consequences, but I needed to recover my memories as fast as I could. What if
Chapter 134Ria's POVJade was standing next to her huge black car, while Finn was at my front."I don't want to have anything to do with you again." Finn mentioned to me, unable to look me in my eyes."What? Did you threaten him again? Are you scared of her? Are you scared of what she might do to you?" I questioned him while I scoffed."It is none of your business. You can call the police to arrest me and then bring me in for questioning. You can tell them anything they want, but we don't have any business together." He mentioned setting the boundary between the both of us.A scoff appeared on my lips while I tried to connect the dots as usual.He was so damn serious."What the hell does she have on you exactly that you keep on acting this way?" I whispered, moving closer to him. "You see Zoa over there." I pointed at Zoa, who was sitting on a pavement with Liam next to her. Her hair was so messy, her eyes were really swollen, and she looked like a mess right now. "She made her that
