Chapter 181: A Plan that Never Works

"She's less than five minutes away, we won't make it in time," sighed Richard, worried, leaving the office along with Gaby and Jayden.

"Please..." prayed Gaby. "She can't go through with this," she murmured, trying to call Elizabeth, but she didn't pick up.

At that moment, she was already inside the clinic, and Richard, Jayden, and Gaby were not even halfway there.

She was now in the elevator, sending a message to the doctor, letting him know she had arrived with each step she took toward the room. Her chest tightened, but she didn't hesitate to turn the doorknob and enter.

"You?" she asked, surprised, raising her eyebrows as he smiled upon seeing her. "How did you know?" she asked, squinting as she kept her head down.

"Today is the last day, I'm not stupid. You were hinting at the time you would end our daughter's life. Have you considered the weight of that word? Do you really want to carry death on your conscience?" he asked, reproaching her.

It's been a while, what are you doing here?""I couldn't help but miss you, but it seems you're going through a tough time," he sighed with tenderness, embracing her again."What's going on, are you confusing our relationship?""No, I just missed you. You know I never denied what I feel for you, but... right now, you need to pull yourself together. I didn't come alone, there are many people inside wanting to see you."Kennedy extended his hand once again after handing her the bouquet of flowers he brought as a gift, and led her inside. As they passed through the door, she was greeted by all those people."Liz!" shouted the girl excitedly when she saw her, she was the most unexpected guest there. Aurora seemed like a different child now; indeed, Kennedy was close to her as if they were father and d

Jayden simply approached, understanding her invitation."Well... we can forget all the problems for a while with something more relaxing, don't you think?""Yes..." she murmured inaudibly as he led her to the bedroom, entering the bathroom."If you're nervous, we can forget about it," he commented, standing in front of her, under the still-off shower."Don't you want to?" she asked uncertainly."Since the last time I touched you and kissed you, I haven't stopped thinking about it, about your scent, your touch, your kisses, I want you," he confessed. Then she felt his warm breath on her shoulder as his hands ran down her back, pulling the fabric of her skin apart. Jayden began to undress her subtly as he felt the softness of her skin under his fingertips.Since the last time it went wrong, they hadn't tried again, and with so many things happening, they hadn't

You and your husband should have already sorted things out, why do you, a couple who got married not long ago, fight so much? It can harm our single ticket. I can't wait to start enjoying the benefits that come with this child."Emma was with her back to him, packing her suitcase, pursing her lips bitterly, wanting to cry."Is that all you think about, Dad?" she asked with a choked voice. "Can't you see this boy as your grandson?""Of course I do, you've been blessed with a boy, that's great, we're all happy.""Mom still doesn't talk to me... Besides, she seems even more unpleasant now that I'm expecting this child.""It's not like that, your mother loves you. Now go back to your husband's mansion and reconcile.""Okay..." she sighe

Gaby could feel how much he had changed as they prepared the meal."Is Elizabeth going to be okay being alone for so long?" Jayden asked, stopping behind her and embracing her."That's what she wanted. Liz wants some time alone. Besides, I can know where she is, and right now, she's in the room. Hasn't she moved?" Gaby asked confusedly."But the tracker is on her phone. Sometimes the phone stays, she could be in the kitchen, she might be hungry now.""Yes, whether she likes it or not, she has to eat because of the pregnancy. So I'll finish preparing breakfast and take it to her."And so Gaby did and headed home. As soon as she entered, she didn't see anything strange. She went up the stairs and entered Elizabeth's room."I brought your breakfast," she announced humorlessly, but she only saw the empty be

    Chapter 186: Without CluesAfter reading that message along with new photos, she still wasn't convinced. She went upstairs and entered Richard's office, handing him the phone with the message, which he read, also seeing the photos."Have you stopped to think that maybe she's in danger? That they might have done the same thing they did to you?" Gaby asked anxiously. But he had no reaction to what he saw, just sitting back in the armchair."You, being a specialized person, still let yourself be carried away by emotions," he said indifferently. "But I believe you still remember, when I was kidnapped, how long it took for me to reappear? Besides, she's acting naturally and of her own free will. It hasn't even been twenty-four hours since she disappeared, and she's already reassuring her parents about it so that no one thinks she was kidnapped. That letter has her handwriting, and frankly, I'm tired of Elizabeth's immaturity. She's been acting like this for so long that at some point, it w

Jayden asked."It may seem crazy, but I highly doubt it. He wouldn't break his promise; I'm sure of it, considering he would spend more than thirty years in jail because of the accusation," she explained, dialing once again."I knew you would call," he commented indifferently."Where are you?""I'm out of the country.""What do you mean?" she asked skeptically."I had to leave the country with Emma. I know the child she's expecting is mine, and besides... when she saw that your beloved husband kept pursuing Elizabeth, she finally gave up on that foolish love and came with me.""So you're not with Elizabeth?""I made a deal with you; this woman doesn't interest me. But don't tell me Taylor is with her again?" he asked mockingly."That's what everything indicates.""I have nothing to

So, I had an idea. I've been playing along and trying to convince everyone that I've accepted staying here, but I just want to be able to leave with you," she commented as she looked around.Rayssa continued to listen to Elizabeth, although she never uttered a single word. But what Elizabeth didn't realize was that she understood every word.After resting in the garden, Elizabeth began to walk through the facilities of that place. She pretended not to know who that woman was, and she managed to access all areas. Purposefully, she helped the nurses when it was time for medication.She hadn't imagined that there would be other sick people in that house, but perhaps to keep up appearances, they took care of oth

Kemilly sighed apprehensively. "And if we tell you something, I don't know... Can we trust you? After all, you don't want to have your baby here, right? And I believe they kidnapped you and keep you here too.""Yes..." Elizabeth confirmed, suspicious. "We can talk when I bring the medication because if I'm late, they'll bring it, and I might lose this privilege."They let Elizabeth go, and when she returned, she brought Rayssa's medication. The girls were surprised that no nurse came with Elizabeth to supervise her. They could barely disguise their surprise. Elizabeth noticed the girls' stagnation and held back a laugh. At that moment, she realized that the girls wanted the same thing she did.They waited for Elizabeth to give Rayssa her medication, and then they sat next to her."Are you one of

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,

    Chapter 207: A Pregnant Woman in a Scorpion NestShe rested her head on those wooden planks, holding her belly, thinking she would be alone at that moment. 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

    Chapter 205: Visiting my former marriageDuring that same period, Taylor was now living with his mother. She took him to her home, even though it was a simple place. 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
