Chapter 142. Elizabeth is Bay

Elizabeth continued walking, pretending he wasn't there, but inside she trembled and showed fear as she remembered the last time she encountered him alone. But before she could leave, Taylor grabbed her arm, stopping her.

"What do you want?" she asked, startled.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying anything, I just want to talk," he cautioned, but she pulled her arm away.

"I have nothing to talk about, especially not with someone like you!" she asserted, walking away.

Her legs trembled with fear, she quickly headed for the elevator and waited anxiously for it to open. As soon as it did, she saw so many men who all at once looked at her with confusion. She didn't have the courage to enter, afraid that perhaps one of them was Taylor's men. So, she ran to the emergency exit to climb the stairs.

"Don't you think the elevator was safer?" Taylor asked, following her to the stairs.

"Damn..." she muttered, trying to run. However, once again, he grabbed her, stoppi

In the late afternoon, Taylor was released after being cleared when they reviewed the footage, confirming that he hadn't pushed Elizabeth. On the same day, Zeus left and, upon his return, demanded that Elizabeth be discharged from the hospital.When Elizabeth opened her eyes, her vision was a bit blurry, but gradually the images around her aligned. She quickly got up from the bed, realizing that her clothes had been changed to an old nightgown. The room was familiar but strange at the same time."Liz, what are you doing standing up? You need to rest!" her brother Ryuk interrupted, holding her."Why did they bring me here? Where's Richard?" she asked anxiously, trying to get rid of her brother but still feeling weak."Father asked us to bring you home," Ryuk warned, apprehensive."I don't want to stay here," she grumbled, barely able to keep her eyes open."I'm sorry, Liz, Father won't let you lea

Richard left the hospital feeling fine, wondering how he could have slept at home and woken up in the hospital, as if something serious had happened."You..." he grumbled as he got into the car and sat next to Ailda, while Jayden drove."You didn't want to wake up!" protested Ailda, as he showed his bad mood."I'm feeling great, and I don't remember ever sleeping as well as today.""Of course, it seemed more like you were dead and revived after some time," commented Taylor, but he was already distracted, fiddling with his phone."What's Kenedy up to?""It seems he's gotten over Elizabeth," he smiled ironically, teasing Richard. "Aurora is keeping him busy, making him read stories. He seems not to like it, but deep down, he's loving all the adventure he's having at the mansion.""So, keep him away

    Chapter 145: How to Escape to the Secret Garden?"Are you going to wait for me to take a shower, right?" she asked eagerly, finishing undressing."I..." he sighed heavily, lost for words. She just smiled, understanding, and headed for the shower area. He remained attentive to every movement, watching her naked under the shower. His only regret was the distance she was from his touch."I got what you wanted..." Jayden stopped speaking when Richard signaled for him to be silent while covering the cellphone, showing embarrassment. "Both of you..." he murmured, stifling a laugh, placing the folder on his desk and quietly leaving.He stayed on the call with her as she headed to the bedroom, still seeing her even closer as she locked herself in and brushed her hair, until she fell asleep while watching him read the documents absentmindedly."Seeing you every day on call won't make this longing for you any better..." he lamented when he saw that she had fallen deeply asleep. "Good night, my

    146. when I feel your skin.Jayden warned Elizabeth that she should wait for Richard's notice before heading to the garden, but she was so anxious that she didn't even wait for the message after her three unanswered calls. She suspected that something was wrong, yet she couldn't imagine what it could be. She got ready on that sunny morning and went out cheerfully, greeting her brothers as she left her room, finding them in the hallway."Where are you going?" Ryuk asked, still in his pajamas next to his brother, watching her skipping and jumping with her flowery loose fabric dress."I'm going for a walk!" she announced, twirling and stumbling."You know you can't go out, right?" Ryuk commented."I can... but is that all?" he asked, suspiciously."Yes, I'm tired of staying in this room."She rushed down the stairs, heading outside the mansion. She knew the guards would check on what she was doing. She went to the usual area where she always went with Gaby, where there was a small covere

    147 most awaited late visitRichard stayed there with her, together in that warm and pleasant cottage, undressed. He watched her as she slept peacefully beside him, a brief nap that he didn't even dare to try for fear of needing to be awakened by medication. He didn't want, in any way, for her to see him like that, and that was one of the reasons he didn't want to rush the marriage."Time to wake up, sleepyhead," he murmured gently, causing her to wake up with a smile on her face."Heavens... my parents..." she sighed, quickly getting up and getting dressed, while he remained seated, dressing in haste. Giving her one last kiss, he bid her farewell. "Tomorrow, same time, okay?" she asked, opening the door, ready to leave."Definitely." At the same time the door slammed and she ran as fast as she could until she reached the wall and headed back to the mansion without raising suspicions by using the pitiful excuse that she had overslept.When Richard got home, he was at his limit. He was

How low can you go, huh?" he asked, annoyed."I just want you to give her back to me. I've already told you, besides that, nothing is more important to you than power, right? So let me keep her, and I won't meddle in the administration of my share."Richard laughed aloud, while she watched, wondering what was so funny."Do as you wish, I won't negotiate with you. Aurora is not a commodity. Also... I see you know very little about me. Therefore, leave my house; you are no longer welcome here.""If that's how it is, I'll take my daughter back at any cost," she asserted irritably, leaving Richard's mansion.The next morning, very early, something was happening at Emma's mansion. She had gone to visit her father; her intention was just to see her old father and her mother, who almost never spok

Why can't you let go of her? I'm your wife!" she yelled angrily as he put away the photos."I don't know! You suddenly became so annoying. Want to know the truth? The only thing I want is her, to touch her. That feeling of frustration consumes me all the time. You knew I loved her, but you were happy because my father disapproved of her. I was just an obedient dog.""You used to say you loved me...""I know!" he asserted angrily, "but I can't deal with the frustration.""And how do I deal with the frustration of my husband not touching me or even kissing me?""Emma... I'm sorry..." he murmured, embracing her. "I promised I would make you happy, but I can't overcome what I'm feeling.""I know what it is. You and your uncle are always fighting o

He quickly made his way out of the area and headed to his car without even noticing the vehicle on the other side of the road."It seems like your husband is not only watching over you but also visiting you," Emma's security guard commented, sitting behind the wheel while she sat beside him, silent and serious. "Do you want me to do something now?""It's not the right time yet, but the right time will come. For now, let's leave," Emma suggested."Can I take you to my apartment for now?" he asked hesitantly, but she nodded, forcing a smile, and they left.The hearing was brief, with all the evidence Richard had gathered. There was no way Ricardo's defense lawyer could argue. They lost custody, but they were still allowed visitation with the girl. Richard left the courtroom before the judge even finished speaking, as soon as

Richard and Elizabeth were marrying again, this time officially and grandly, so that everyone could witness this union and celebrate.After so many events, walking down the aisle to meet the man she loved was priceless. As her father led her slowly as if wanting to savor her arrival at the groom."Father?" whispered Elizabeth upon hearing her father's slight sniffle and realizing he was almost crying." Isn't this the second time I'm getting married?"That wasn't a wedding, it was a mistake of your father, right? But now I'm seeing my daughter really getting married, to someone she loves, I'm just a grandfather now." declared Zeus, holding back tears.

When you don't talk about the devil, he shows up anyway, doesn't he?" he asked seriously.The twins, in turn, got up and went downstairs together, barely noticing that the Leblanc brothers followed them while smiling and chatting."What are they talking about?" whispered Brian. Then, they subtly approached when the twins sat at a table in the cafeteria and stealthily listened."You shouldn't think about it, it was right to throw those coats away at that moment. Besides... Think about it, do men like them have anything good to offer? You saw, they attract the attention of all women all the time." she commented with disgust."But isn't that a good thing?" asked Brian, whispering, astonished."True, you know, men like that are after every woman they can find. There's no value in that, and I say this because they kept staring at us the whole time. We're nothing but toys,

Besides the risk she was taking by being in an old house in a forest, it was obvious that there were insects and wild animals around. So, she tried to stay still, even more so when she saw an unpleasant insect just inches away, making her spine tingle. After all, how many more were there? She closed her eyes in terror. It seemed that under that house had become a shelter for scorpions. So, she even tried not to breathe, even with panic.At such a critical moment, she truly thought she was going to die, until she heard the door of that old house open abruptly."Oh Heavens... He never fails..." she sighed in relief."Stay still!" Richard asserted upon seeing the scorpions crawling over Elizabeth."Save me... Please..." she pleaded, holding her breath."It's okay... Just don't move." he said, keeping calm and carefully removing the sc

It wasn't because she eagerly awaited the moment to see her daughter, but rather because, after months in that mansion, even with so much entertainment, she was eager and longing to go out and take her last walk alone.The twins were wandering around the mansion's premises, and as usual, they always went to see Elizabeth."You can come in," announced Elizabeth when the twins knocked on the door."Are you going somewhere?" the girls asked, a bit confused to see her already dressed and drying her hair."I'm thinking of making a brief visit to an old place," she said thoughtfully."You're not thinking of visiting someone, are you?" Kemilly asked suspiciously."What are you talking about?" Elizabeth asked, confused."We heard that Taylor is paralyzed, unable to move anything from the waist down. It's a pity for someone so young and handsome.""Why would

Now he had to accept that this was his fate, being completely ignored by his father, who didn't even visit him. Coralie now sat daily in a chair in front of Taylor's bed and dedicated herself to feeding him."Do you know I can feed myself, right? Why do you keep doing this?" Taylor asked, annoyed."And I want to take care of my son, as I never could before," she grumbled as he refused to eat."You don't have to, just leave and let me die. We can't even live in this place, no money, no life, nothing. That bastard who claims to be my father only defends his own interests.""I'm here. Besides, I know how to get money, so don't worry.""How?""Let's just say I made a great friend, even when I was practicing evil," she smiled tenderly. "At least she says she never made a mistake when she chose to trust me.""I abandoned you. S

The girls talked to their guardians and asked for permission to go with Elizabeth."How come Elizabeth asked you two to go with her?" Richard asked skeptically."Actually, we asked her. We believe we can learn more from someone like her.""Did she say where she's going?"The girls shook their heads negatively."No, actually she said she didn't want you to know.""What am I to her? Is she always going to be avoiding me? Does she think it's fair while dragging my daughter everywhere?" he grumbled annoyed, leaving the twins confused."What do you mean? But if it was your son, why did you let Taylor bother her so much?"At that moment, Richard averted his gaze, showing shame."At first, he implied that baby was

Rayssa asked, leaning on Richard's arm as he escorted her."You can be sure, just the two of us was a bit lonely.""I heard she married that man, now that I'm back, I'll have to face a divorce while her marriage will be annulled," she sighed thoughtfully."Indeed, it seems our family has a karma related to marriage annulment.""Why? Speaking of which... Elizabeth is your wife, right? Why didn't you bring her?""It's a long story, actually, a story so far-fetched it might take days to know it all," he suddenly commented, remembering the time he was kidnapped.He smiled awkwardly at the thought that it was his grandfather who did that; he was now sure that Rayssa and Aloury's encounter was more dramatic than expected, filled with Aloury's remorse and regret, now that she was lucid. She had awakened from

Emile nodded in agreement to what Kemilly indicated by looking towards the grand entrance, then turned to his sister."Let's take you, since you can't walk...""No!" Kemilly asserted, using all her strength, pulling her sister and running into the hospital, leaving the two men stunned."What's going on?" Brian asked, furrowing his brow as he watched the girls struggling to run."Interesting, I expected them to jump into our arms instead of running past us..." "Oh... I guess we're quite presumptuous, but perhaps there are really tough women out there in the world," Brian commented, interrupting his brother and suppressing a laugh."Did they make it seem like a game?" Ryuk asked, sliding his thumb over his chin with a light smile, much like Brian.The twins ran to Elizabeth's room, finding her things already packed, feeling disappointed to see her leaving."You're leaving wi

Don't keep rejecting me..." he tried to hold her hand, but she pulled away."Excuse me," Eliza entered the room, interrupting the conversation."I'll let you two talk..." Richard announced, albeit unwillingly."Why are you treating him like this?" Eliza asked, concerned."Because he's stubborn. Clearly, he's doing this out of pity. He wants to accept this child not because he loves me or loves this child, but because he feels sorry for everything I've been through. But the truth is, I've realized that nothing happened between me and Taylor.""What do you mean?" Eliza asked, intereste
