The twins continued to play with the toys Jonathan had brought them after lunch.

After Liam and Kyle left, she sent the twins for their afternoon nap.

Finally, Jonathan and Liliana sat on the swing in the garden as they talked.

“You seem very free today,” Liliana broached the topic.

“I cleared my schedule,” Jonathan said without mincing it.

“I am flattered,” She said with a laugh.

“Why does the entire Aprice family hate you so much?” He asked directly.

“What do you mean?” She feigned ignorance.

“I heard Lydia Aprice came back to P city after our press conference. Lester Aprice and Lydia Aprice have both been looking for you. They even went by your studio in Central Mall. They have something against you,” He clarified.

“Alas, the first question you have asked, I am unable to answer. At least not entirely,” Liliana sighed.

“Can you tell me how deep the grudge runs? I need to update security accordingly. The Aprices and Stones aren’t invited to the inauguration,” He explained.

    Liam’s house erupted in chaos as he showed up with a 6-year-old son when no one had ever seen a woman around him. The boy looked too much like Liam to doubt his genetics. His grandmother, not unexpectedly, exhausted all means to find out who Kyle’s mother was and her background. But Liam was tight-lipped about it, as can only be expected of army personnel. She loved her great-grandchild, though. She felt sorry for the well-nurtured boy - he had to grow up without a mother. But the kid was too intelligent and well-nurtured to complain. The other relatives, however, did not think so. “She was probably a whore he fucked.” “Who knows if he screwed someone while interrogating her and was forced to take the responsibility.” “He is an unlucky bastard who killed his mother at birth.” "If she were any good, Liam would not be so tight-lipped." "Maybe Liam just picked a random child because of familiarity. That's why he does not know anything about his mother." "There was never a woman

    “Lil, I am going to enjoy it,” Mariana shouted. “Me too!” exclaimed Jenn. “Jenn, don’t use your own devices. You suck at anything electronic, not medically related. They will find you within minutes. Use Mer’s alternate phone.” Lil explained. “Mer, you know what to hold and release, right?” Liliana vaguely asked. “I know. I know. It’s like the 10th time you have said it since morning. I will only provoke that woman enough.” Mariana replied, exasperated with the nagging. “I have a professional team who could have done this without my nagging. Don’t give me that attitude, darling. You wanted to do it. Don’t screw up!” Liliana snorted. Henry giggled, and Mariana glared at him but did not retort. “You are so nice to Jennifer but fierce with Mariana. Why?” Jonathan moved to sit beside her and asked in a whisper. Liliana replied without a pause, “Personality differences!” She explained, “Jenn, despite her playfulness, is quite serious about anything she does. Mer bulldozes through

    The group answered a few questions from the reporters, and the ribbon-cutting went without a hitch. They followed her inside as Liliana started to show them around the place. Her assistant and manager for that studio ran the tour as she oversaw the entire thing and gave her inputs now and then. She would stop by a few pieces and explain the inspiration behind those few design pieces that were relevant or special. Things were almost at an end when Vivian pretended to glance at a wedding gown in the store that was on display. She had drawn quite a crowd as she exclaimed how ethereal the dress was. Just as they bent over, the glass frame toppled over the onlookers as they retreated hastily. Vivian, unfortunately, stumbled, and the entire showcase fell upon her. Vivian screamed and created a loud commotion. Reporters were busy snapping pictures, and some people did a live stream to show the netizens how the proceedings went. It was a great way to increase their followers. Nothing

    However, many of the guests were from the upper class. They had seen the ins and outs of schemes throughout their lives. They were smart enough to guess something was off. “Maybe there is more to it than meets the eye. We should wait and see things through before judging anyone.” “President Smith may be ruthless in business, but he is not so cold-blooded.” “President Smith is smart enough to know that if Vivian Stone is truly the victim, it will negatively affect him and L&L Designs. His silence means things are yet to unfold.” “Mrs. Liliana is undoubtedly a kind person. Every year, L&L Design sponsors 100 underprivileged students in the Design major and 100 in other fields. She loudly proclaimed Vivian as her rival. She does not seem like someone who would do something sneaky.” “Judging by things, it looks like they are waiting for the police. Maybe Vivian Stone staged all of this.” “That’s likely as she had created quite a farce at the Welcome banquet as well.” The chatter co

    Lydia, who was too dumb to notice something was amiss, went on and on with her verbosity.Finally, a woman could not take it anymore and shouted at her.“Even if she did all those things, what right do you have to berate her?”Lydia, who had been waiting for this question, exclaimed.“Of course! I do. She used to be a servant at my home.” Lydia said. The smugness in her voice was hard to miss.That created an uproar.“How can the legendary founder of L&L Design be a servant?”“She said she was in Kings High. How can a servant be qualified to study in Kings High?”“Who is this woman spewing nonsense?”“She looks like a cheap woman, while Mrs. Liliana exudes the aura of nobility. One should at least make a believable lie.”“Yeah, she is a jealous bitch spewing nonsense.”“Oh, that’s Lydia Aprice. She has been trying to bang President Smith for years already. The Aprices sure are shameless.”“I had heard that she is President Aprice’s second wife’s daughter. Like mother, like daughter.”

    The crowd burst into laughter. Mrs. Liliana was the queen of sarcasm. Lydia was about to vomit blood hearing Liliana’s words. That was what she had always hated about her - that sense of superiority and the aura. Even when they had forced her to act as the servant at the Aprice Mansion when she was a child, Liliana had quietly gone about her job like she owned the place. Lydia hated her to the core. She could not wait to tear her to pieces. “You bitch, how dare you?” She exclaimed and made her way towards Liliana. “Miss Aprice, stop it!” Terry Draw stopped Lydia in her tracks. Most people in business knew Terry as he was an elite employee hired by the Smith Group with generous rewards. After being appointed, he became the manager of the Central Mall in a few short years. He had achieved everything on his own merits without any background help. Big bosses admired him and wanted to poach him, but Terry had shown excellent strength of character and wisdom by depicting loyalty an

    Terry walked up to Liliana and bowed deeply to her. His action stunned everyone into silence. Terry had a reputation for having a backbone. Otherwise, others would have poached him already. He straightened his back and did not wait for Liliana to speak as he continued. “I can personally attest to the character of Mrs. Liliana. She is my benefactor.” “She gave me her King's High scholarship because she was rich enough to pay for her tuition. She is also the one who gave me relevant materials to prepare for entrance to Kings High after I had passed her tests." The crowd was in an uproar. 'She got a scholarship in Kings High and gave it away.' Both things were inconceivable to everyone. Terry continued, ignoring the murmurs. "After I entered Kings High, she directed me to use the alumni network to secure a scholarship abroad which was extremely generous. Since Kings High is ultimately a high school, she suggested I aim for a scholarship until post-graduation to secure my future.

  • My wife is a sassy Queen   Chapter 49 - Not reconciled

    While everyone was sighing in admiration for Liliana, the two women were utterly embarrassed. Vivian could not have imagined she could get humiliated further after her fall and be isolated like she was. Not to mention the cuts hurt so much. People had always admired her and looked up to her for her academic qualifications - both for the Kings High alumnus and for her prestigious degree from abroad. But Liliana hogged all the attention away from her in one fell swoop. While Vivian had never even heard of the Kings High scholarship, Liliana had not only qualified for it throughout her time at Kings High but also sponsored other students using it. With one kick, she cemented her position as someone with both intelligence and money. Everyone was talking about how wonderful a person Liliana was, and they had thoroughly ignored Vivian. Even when they looked at her, it was a gaze full of pity or loathing. Similar to Vivian, Lydia also felt humiliated. That fatal blow was hard to accep

    Liam finished his narrative and went close to Kyle.He knelt beside his half-brother and said, “Kyle, you are my brother by blood. But in my heart, you have always been my son.”“I will do anything and everything for you. Not because I feel obligated or you were a responsibility thrust onto me, or because my mother ruined your mother’s life. But because I love you from the bottom of my heart. If anything happens to you, I will lose my mind.”“What happened to previous generations is their karma and their lives. What we do defines our life and our karma.”“You are my son and will remain so until you return to P City Military as the Colonel. Until then, you mustn’t tell anyone about it.”“I never told you about your mother because I have immense respect and compassion for her. I did not want to lie to you or gloss over her story. I wanted to tell you when you are older, so you can appreciate her sacrifices.”“Nevertheless, you will always be my son and my highest priority. I love you so

    Liam took a while before he braced himself for the next part.“My mother thought my father was cheating on her with Aunty Keira.”“My father kept everything about Aunty Keira a secret because he hadn’t identified all the people on the inside who worked for him. So for her safety, he dealt with everything directly. He had created a fake ID and passport for her for an emergency. If she ran into any trouble, or if he died, then she could flee and settle down abroad.”“My mother thought he was planning to elope with her. She went after him when he had sneaked out, and she took photos. The next day, she posted all those photos in the newspaper calling Aunty Keira a bad person for flirting with a married army man and ruining a military marriage.”“Naturally, everyone found out, and the bad people captured and bullied Aunt Keira.”“The plan was almost complete. As per military protocols, my father had to prioritize the mission. My father had the last bits of information in place. So he hasti

    Liliana began when Liam stalled for time.“Kyle, your mother comes from a long line of military spies. You know what a spy is, right?”Kyle nodded.“Traditionally, only men are sent as spies because women are physically more vulnerable and comparatively more emotional. However, during your mother’s time, there was a very powerful mafia in Z city. He was extending his terror in P city. He had bribed and coerced many people at higher positions - so he would not get caught. Someone inside the Military betrayed us, and he found our spies.”Liam added, “He killed 25 of our most trained and skilled spies within a week. It left the P City Military in a very vulnerable position. My father was the Army Commander at that time. My Grandfather was in a higher position, and the mafia approached my grandfather for something. When he refused, he killed him.”“Among the 25 spies, three were from your mother’s family. Apart from them, almost 100 people from the force - Police and Military - lost their

    Liliana walked up to them and hugged them.She checked them from head to toe, much to the boy’s embarrassment. When she was satisfied that they were unharmed, she spanked them.Li looked at his mother incredulously, but she glared back at him.“How dare you run away? Didn’t you know the address of your home? If you encounter something you can’t handle, you come to me. Is that such a difficult concept to grasp?”“Look at how filthy you have become! Is this how you plan to set an example for your siblings?”Kyle hugged her and sobbed, “I am sorry, Mommy.”Li did the same, and Liliana hugged the two children close.Liliana exclaimed, “Ah! It reminds me of when we had just returned to P city. Jo - that traitor, left me for her father. I had the two of you to hug.”She led them to the ensuite bathroom and asked them to clean up. She sat them down and asked them to drink water and eat the pies she had made that afternoon.After the kids were well-fed and hydrated, she sat on the couch with

    James remained unperturbed and laughed.He added when he had calmed down.“Jacob said he kissed Mariana and realized that he was gay.”Jonathan was speechless. He hadn’t expected that twist.James ignored his friend’s expressions and slurred, “He said they were best friends and sort of dating. But the vibe between them was closer to cousins than lovers. When they kissed, he realized how much he never wanted to kiss any girl in his life ever again.”Jonathan had to stifle his laugh.‘Good for Jacob!’‘Poor Mariana lost her first kiss like that. Tch! Tch!’James continued his ramble.“Then they became even closer. Which may have been why Mariana never dated anyone.”Jonathan thought about it and added, “Makes sense! She wouldn’t have needed to look for a relationship, and others would have assumed she wasn’t available.”James continued, “Jacob once took her horse riding. She fell and had a fracture. Her hymen tore when she fell. Then I slept with her and shouted at her for making a fuss

    Jonathan and Liliana stopped talking and embraced each other while lying quietly on the bed.Jonathan was about to drift asleep when Liliana spoke.“Do you still want to have another child?”He was stunned and sat up immediately.“What do you mean?”She turned around and asked, “Well, you never brought it up since we talked about it half a year ago.”He couldn’t understand what she was getting at. He asked, “So?”She mumbled, “I just think it is the right time, and maybe we should try. I will turn thirty soon, and it might cause complications.”He asked, “I still don’t know what you are trying to say.”She rolled her eyes and asked, “I want to know if you still want another child.
