8 months after Anna left London.After Anna discussed her painting schedule with Susan, she got her brush tools, a new Canva, and her basic painting tool the next day. Just as she had hoped to, she’d paint for two hours after returning from the Bannados restaurant.Every night and day was always stressful for Anna because her baby was growing day by day, and the pressure of working with envious colleagues was almost intolerable to her. Yet, Anna was determined to continue working until it was time for her break and had to grit her teeth every day in the restaurant to pass through the day. Nights weren’t any less good because she would paint for two hours every night, even if she was bone tired. She wanted to make a masterpiece that could secure her baby's future or at least bring food to their table aside from the restaurant income. Most women in the last few weeks of their third trimester would feel heavy and reluctant to work or even lift a foot, but it was different for Anna. Her
After several months of searching and turning the whole of London upside down, Jacob became filled with bitterness and irritation. Just a word from anyone, he would snap and shoot them without thinking. It was getting out of hand and very menacing. No one could tame him, every day, he woke up furious and wild. Jackson had to take him away from the Mob house before he shot all the mob members in outrage. Their father was aware of Jacob’s horrible change in behavior, and instead of him finding ways to dissuade it, he cut all ties with Jacob. He had even threatened to cut all ties with Jackson too if didn't start thinking about the engagement proposal he had mapped out for him. After so much pressure from his wife, he had given Jackson a year to get over Anna, or else, he would rule out their names from the genealogy. “You can’t just shoot everyone that says a word to you, Jacob. Anna is not going to come back like that, we should look for her instead.” Jackson tried to speak sense
Anna was sitting on the hospital bed with her baby and he was sleeping peacefully in her arms after feeding. She hadn’t been able to look elsewhere aside from his face ever since he was brought to her again by the Doctor. “What will you name him?” Susan asked, her voice filled with amazement because this was the first time she would be seeing such a handsome baby. She was convinced that Anna’s baby's father had to be a wealthy person or at least a celebrity. “I don’t know.” Anna chuckled slightly when she realized that she hadn’t even thought of a baby name for her baby at all. Tracing his little eyelashes, she was stunned at how much her baby resembled the twins. Sadness clouded her heart when she realized again that the twin would never be able to see their son. The little star was really a survivor. Even when she felt like she had lost all the strength in her, he still managed to come out. “The Doctor said you can be discharged before the weekend,” Susan said to Anna when she
The manager stared at Anna in shock for a while, before he eventually asked. “Is it because of Lucia? She has already resigned. You don't have to worry about her.” She has resigned? Why? Anna furrowed her brows after listening to the manager. “I'm not resigning because of her. I’ve decided to pursue my talent instead.” She said to the manager and he frowned in confusion. “What talent? cooking?” He asked, his frown deepening after he casually assumed that Anna wanted to open her own restaurant or something.Anna shook her head after listening to him. “No, sir. Not being a chef or anything that relates to working tirelessly in the kitchen.” She had made this huge decision as she wielded all her strength to push Marcelo out of her vagina. She had made a vow to herself, and her baby that she would be with him all the steps of his life. She had also made the promise to give him the best in everything.“Is there a way I can persuade you?” The manager asked, and Anna shook her head.“I'
A few days after pitching the art on the auction site, Anna, who was feeling depressed and lonely after Susan finally left to live with Philly, decided to watch the Tv to cheer up her mood. With baby Marcelo in her arms, she cuddled his soft body with hers, and gently stroked his hair as the screenplay. She was still watching the Tv when her phone suddenly rang.Thinking it was Philly, she picked up immediately without looking at the screen. “Hello, is this Miss Annabella Robert?” A strange, yet professional voice sounded across the phone, and Anna frowned before removing the phone from her ears to see that it wasn't Philly that had called. “Yeah, how can I help- oh wait.” Her eyes widened as she remembered that the only place she had her name in this order was on the auction site. “Is this the auction site?” She asked carefully, her heart hammering against her chest.Did they call her to tell her that she was rejected? Oh no.“Yeah, I am Rapheal Martins from Amedux auction house.
“Mommy, mommy, can we get more steaks?” Marcelo’s angelical voice rang in the huge living room as he appeared in white stockings, newly released Fendi joggers, and a white top. His voice cut off Maria’s words and she gasped on the phone. “You have a child?” She was so shocked that she had to hold her chest to contain her surprise. Anna shook her head at the little boy, whose hands were filled with steaks and who still wanted more. Why did he have to pick Jacob’s eating habit of having steaks in his meal every time? “Mommy, who are you on the phone with? Is it grandma Susie?” Marcelo hopped on Anna’s lap, his greasy hands staining her white evening gown. A few weeks after she received her first income, Anna moved to a bigger, and more well-furnished house that was bigger than her ex-husband’s mansion. She had employed a nanny and a housekeeper, but since she still wasn’t comfortable living with people, she didn’t opt for a live-in staff just like Jackson. “No, baby, I'm on the pho
Back in London, Jackson was watching the news when his phone rang beside the documents he had recently abandoned. When he saw that the caller was his mother, he groaned slightly before picking up.“If this is about any meeting or parties, count me out of it.” “No, it isn’t.” Rosa’s voice over the phone was poise but there was a hint of emptiness in them. “Were you able to contact Jacob? I haven't spoken to him for 50 months. Has he completely gone crazy and abandoned everyone? Can I get his call line?” Her motherly emotion crippled her loyalty to her husband, and she had no choice but to find ways to contact her other son. Jackson had no words to say to his mother because she was also the one that has been calling and matchmaking him with Rebecca Cameron over the years. He couldn’t believe that she now wanted him to give her Jacob’s contact. That's impossible. “Mother, Jacob doesn't want to be found. I can’t give you his contact.”“What do you mean you can’t give me his contact in
In the VIP section of the Art Gallery, Jacob, who was still waiting for the director to get back to him, felt his stomach churning in hunger. Rising to his full stature, he took a glance at his Rolex and frowned slightly. “Where did you say I can bid for any other items by that artist?” He asked the man, who had been his escort. “Amedux auction house, you have to go through the site first and wait for her next item.” The man explained and Jacob frowned distastefully at him. “There’s no item available?” He asked, and the man nodded. Slightly angered, Jacob decided to wait for the Art gallery director to get back to him, and give him the artist's contact, so he could contact them directly. After Anna heard that the man asking for her contact information was Jacob Mikelson, her whole body trembled in shock and her phone almost fell from her trembling hands. Jacob was here in Jersey? How? When? Did he trace her down here? How did it happen?She was lost in a trance as these question
That night, Anna once again slept peacefully between the twins, and Marcelo woke up the next morning to see two familiar older men before him. Of course, he was able to instantly recognize them as his fathers after the painting, and the fact that Jacob had shaved off his beard that morning made them easier to identify. A small smirk raised on his lip, and Jacob almost cracked up in laughter. “Did he just smirk at me?” “I think it's a good start.” Jackson asserted humorously, looking at the little boy, who was now climbing from the bed that he was sure he didn’t sleep in.“I want to see mommy.” Marcelo said to the twins, his little voice was energetic and clear. Jackson and Jacob shared a smile as they heard their son’s voice for the first time. “Did you know who we are, little man?” Jacob asked as he squatted to Marcelo’s height. His dark eyes roamed the boy’s face and he felt a strange feeling in his heart before he heard Marcelo’s little voice again.“My daddies?” Jackson an
“None of your business.” Jacob replied impatiently as his eyes trailed to the driver that had come with their mother before turning back to her.“We are on our way out, you can come along if you are here as our mother, and not your husband's wife.” “Jacob.” Jackson cautioned slightly even though he was also currently angry at their parents. Sighing, he used the remote in his hands to open the door. “Mother, we just received news that Anna’s father is dead, and we are on our way to see her family.” Jackson explained calmly to their mother, intentionally hiding the fact that their son was also there, to see her reaction. Rose looked away from Jacob’s cold face as she heard the news about Anna’s father’s death. She almost couldn’t believe that the man her husband was talking to on the phone less than a few hours was already dead.She couldn't bring herself to feel anything for him, but she was so concerned about Anna after everything she had heard. Without saying a word, she moved clo
“Even if what she had done had caused the life of her mother, would you still let her be together with our sons?” Luciano’s words rang in Rose’s head and she raised her head to look at her husband. Seeing that he had gotten her attention, a smirk rose on his lips, and he looked into his wife’s curious eyes as he revealed. “Seven years ago, Anna Wilson left her parent's home in the last hours, due to one reason or the other, and was kidnapped by some men in her neighborhood. Anna called her mother while they were taking her to the hideout, and she was able to trace the location to find her. Unfortunately, she was raped instead of her daughter, and she died in Anna’s arms in the hospital.” Rose’s face gradually altered into shock as she heard her husband’s words and she didn't even say a word when he continued. “Where I have a problem with was that as the crown of everything that happened, just like her father said, she didn’t contact anyone as soon as possible, and before the polic
Luciano had learned everything he wanted to know about Anna from her father, and he was boiling with rage. He couldn’t believe that such a loose woman was around his sons again, who he had raised with wealth and elegance. Realizing that he cannot be the one to tell the world this secret, he made a deal with Anna’s father, and he instantly accepted it when he heard the amount of money involved in it.“But how will I find her? I have no idea where she lives.” Mr. Walton had no shame whatsoever to confess that he had lost all contact with her eldest daughter. “No, you didn’t have to meet up with her.” Luciano frowned when he saw that the drunken fellow didn’t understand what he was saying. “You only have to make sure the world knows about her dirty pasts and how much she has hurt you. How she had made you lose the only woman you ever loved. That's what you have to do.” As Mr. Walton listened to Jared Luciano Mikelson’s words, the hatred he felt for his first daughter surged through hi
“Anna, do you want to say something?” The twin asked in sync as she had just been staring between them. When they saw her nodding her head, they assisted her to the couch and placed her between them. Finally seated, Anna was about to start talking when her phone started ringing in her purse, bringing her back to reality. The twins shared a look when she quickly picked up her call. Anna, who hadn’t realized that she had mistakenly brushed her hand to the speaker of her phone, felt her whole body tremble when her son’s voice came loudly out of her phone. “Mommy, when are you coming? I miss you.” It was more than a few hours after Anna had left Marcelo with her sister, and aside from when he had resumed his first year in school, this was the only time that he would be apart from his mother that long. Anna choked back her tears as she heard her son’s angelic voice. She didn’t dare turn her head or remove her phone from the speaker as she knew that the twins had heard the little b
Just around this time, Anna was panting and moaning from the extreme pleasure she was receiving from Jackson’s rough yet alluring kiss. “I've missed you so much. I've missed this.” Anna couldn’t stop the words that left her mouth immediately after Jackson pulled his mouth away from hers.Upon listening to the ache, desire, and suffering in her tiny voice, Jackson finally confirmed that she hadn’t left them of her own will. After realizing this, he held her cheeks with his two hands and stared into her gorgeous eyes that were begging him to take her right there. “I love you, Anna, I love you so much.” He said to Anna right there when he couldn’t hold back his emotion again. Anna blinked repeatedly upon listening to his words, and she felt her distressed heart swelling with utmost guilt for leaving them without much of a goodbye, then just a letter. “I am.. sorry.” She bit her lips, trying to hold back her tears but her action was so seductive to Jackson. Swallowing back his desire
Jacob walked back to the bedroom with a neutral expression on his face even though he was raving inside. Everything he had just found out from Rhoda replayed in his head again, making him realize that Rebecca Cameron wasn’t the only Cameron that needed to be canceled. If he had known that CC’s little boy, David, who he had only learned about from his brother five years ago, was the brain behind the horrible disaster that had been happening, he would have dealt with him severely.Their father also was an eyesore to him anyways, so their whole family might as well pay for everything they had cost him. He couldn’t hear Rhoda’s soft whimper again, but he would make sure that David Cameron especially lives a few years longer in pain, for putting fear in his family’s most treasured jewel.As for Cole Cameron. . . A cold smile rose on Jacob’s lips when he thought of his father’s closest friend. ‘Well, it wouldn't be that bad if the old man lost someone close to him for a change.’ Just imm
If Jacob imagined that Rhoda could be keeping a secret from him, and presumably, her husband too, he would never have imagined what he had just heard. “So, you are saying you met David Cole there that night, and he had told you their mission, but you kept it from me because you thought you were protecting your marriage? Is that what you are saying?” He summarized what Rhoda said back to her in a few words. His tone was so cold that it made Rhoda tremble to her surprise.“I also said, I didn’t know that you care for her that much.” She asserted as if saying that obviously, she would have definitely protected her marriage before any other thing. “You don’t know I care for her that much? That's your excuse for keeping this for five fucking years?” Christian, who was too stunned to say anything, felt Jacob’s cold glare on him after his words, and he instantly started shivering in fear when their eyes met.Rhoda fixed herself between them immediately and tried to use herself to protect
When Anna arrived at the restaurant she was to meet her client, she sent an email to her, and let her know that she had just gotten to the location. Rebecca, who had been nursing her broken heart and wallowing in her unexplainable hatred for Anna, hadn't left her room after leaving Jackson’s office that day, felt a rush of happiness surge through her when she received a message she had been expecting. She had presumed that once the artist arrived and Jackson was able to get their contact information and also the art she was paid for, he would be appreciative toward her, and even tell his twin brother that she was the one that assisted him in finding the artist he was in search of. Maybe, just maybe- she would be able to get the attention of Jacob Mikelson, and Jackson wouldn’t think so bad of her anymore. He might be disgusted that she had done a bit of surgery to look like Anna, but his brother might find it attractive. Rebecca had thought she would be able to gain the twin's favo
