Chapter 83: I found her

"Come in."

Aiden answered the knock at the door. The door of his study was pried open, bringing in the faint smell of spices as Aunt Rina came in.

Out of respect, Aiden rose to his feet, signaling Rina to use the seat across from him. Reluctantly, she walked over and settled in.

"I wanted to speak with you," Rina began in a choked voice. She had spent hours crying over the sudden disappearance of her niece.

"Go ahead."

There was a long period of silence. Rina sat, gathering the courage to talk to the man the entire city feared. "I know we had a deal before, and perhaps you see my daughter as nothing except a plea deal."

He gnashed his teeth. "I don't."

This reply earned a forced smile from Rina. She opened her phone, staring at a photo of Elsie, which happened to be her wallpaper. It was taken back when Elsie was at the Dale's. She had that innocent look in her eyes, which made everyone do a double-take.

    Chapter 84: Thank you Elsie's eyes fluttered open, the world around her blurry at first. As her vision cleared, she realized she was no longer in snowy forest, but in a small, dimly lit cave. The source of light was from the fireplace at the center. The sounds of the dripping rain echoed throughout the room. It smelled like barbecue and oranges. The floor was cold and damp as she realized she was sleeping on a giant shirt that had been placed on the floor as a bed. Slowly, she tried to sit up, wincing in pain as she moved her injured leg. Looking down, she saw it had been bandaged, though the makeshift dressing was already stained with blood. Glancing around, Elsie noticed she was alone. Where was she? How did she get here? The last thing she remembered was collapsing in the forest after sending that message to Aiden and Eldon. Her heart raced as a million questions swirled in her mind. Had her captors found her? Were Aiden and Eldon alright? Elsie strained to

    Chapter 85: I didn't touch her Before the rise of the sun, Elsie and Elcilia were back on the road. The forest was huge and thick, with several trees canopying the sparse path space. The variants and lively sounds of nature echoed all through. Without any GPS, they found themselves circling the forest repeatedly. Hence, Elsie came up with the idea of making a stroke on one tree per path they took. This would help keep track if they were in a circle. As they trekked, Elcilia carried a backpack, singing catchy tunes to "Fortnight" by Taylor Swift. While Elsie followed diligently behind in a limp, stuck in a daze, recalling her happy and sad memories with Aiden and their son. Several questions ran through her mind: Will I ever see my son again? And my husband? Who is behind my kidnapping? It could be a butterfly effect because she was not kidnapped in her last life. "Are you okay?" Elcilia asked for the umpteenth time, as she looked over her shoulder t

At this point, a squad of police officers arrived with handcuffs. They read the kidnappers their rights before taking them away in the back of the police van. Elsie watched, feeling a twinge of satisfaction. The only thing lacking was the information of who had kidnapped her. Releasing herself from his hold, she interlaced her fingers with his, lifting her head. "How is Eldon?" Caressing her cheek with his free hand, he replied, "He is good. Eldon misses you a lot." He felt much lighter, the burden of finding Elsie no longer weighing on him. Hearing this, Elsie's heart was pierced by a sharp pain. She wondered how Eldon had been in the days she was gone. She wished to hold him in her arms. She confessed, tears moistening her eyes, "I miss him too." Tears ran down her cheeks as if in a race wit

    Chapter 87: You will be fine After examination and all tests carried out, the doctor Fabrice revealed, his face turning sour, "I'm afraid to say, but I think your wife is having a miscarriage. Discerning from the blood loss and cramps, I don't think it's a completed one." Immediately, color drained from Aiden's face. He stared at his wife in disbelief, then at the young doctor. He breathed, "A miscarriage?" In truth, Aiden had no idea about Elsie's pregnancy. He felt hurt and sad about hearing about it now. Still, he did not want to be judgmental at the time when she needed him the most because he knew how much Elsie craved another child. The doctor nodded solemnly, "Given the trauma she has endured, this is not entirely unexpected. We will need to carry out more tests before we can continue. She might need a D&C." Elsie looked up at Aiden, her eyes glistening with tears. "A baby?" she whispered, her free hand trembling as it moved to her abdomen. "I...I didn't

    Chapter 88: I Don't Forgive You In that moment where April stepped into the room, the scent of perfume washed over the room. On the grey couch across the bed, Eldon played with his toys in a low murmur. Coincidentally, he raised his head when April darted her gaze to him, and their eyes met. Recalling the moment when April had scolded him when his mother went missing, fear held him captive. He dropped his toy and ran to his mother's side by the bed. His fidgeting as he climbed on the bed woke Elsie, who was just testing her eyes. "Mom, that bad aunt is here again," he mumbled, laying his head on his mother's arm. Elsie's eyes fluttered open, and she greeted April with a disdainful tone. "What are you here for? Do you want to rub salt in my wounds?" "Don't worry, I am very thick-skinned. I won't leave so easily." Undeterred, April maintained a sweet facade as she lifted a basket of fruit and settled it on the fridge, cooing, "I brought you fruits." "Than

In the garden, Elsie sat across Aiden as she ate a red velvet cake while he scribbled down something. It was the first time he was home for work early, she she decided they spent it in the garden. "Gosh, you are so perfect," Elsie said, her voice dripping with admiration as she gazed at Aiden with loving eyes. Her eyes glided around his exquisite features. "I am not," Aiden replied, his tone matter-of-fact as he met her gaze steadily. "You are! I think God was playing favorites when he created you," Elsie insisted, a playful smile tugging at the corners of her lips. "I am not perfect, Elsie," Aiden stated firmly, a slight furrow in his brow. Elsie paused for a moment, her brow furrowing slightly. "Okay. Tell me, what is the worst thing

He acknowledged her presence with a warm smile, which she returned, her expression softening ever so slightly. Aiden's heart swelled with a glimmer of hope, yearning for things to improve between them. Even though Elsie had not been sleeping in their shared bedroom, she would spend the majority of her days there, until retreating to the room she now shared with Eldon at night. Feeling the exhaustion of the day weighing on him, Aiden made his way to the bathroom, eager for the comfort of a warm shower. As he turned on the faucet, the soothing sound of the cascading water filled the air. His mind, however, remained preoccupied with Elsie's sorrow-stricken face, and endless possibilities raced through his thoughts, all centered on how he might coax a genuine smile back to her lips.

Panic took over him, and he skipped out of bed in his boxers, scrambling to the bathroom. There he found Elsie in the robe, staring at her stomach through the reflection. He remembered the night after the D&C, she had only stared at her stomach and cried. Even though he hated himself for asking a question he already knew the answer to, he still implored, "Are you okay?" This got her attention, and she swatted her gaze to him. She broadened her lips, which stretched to mimic a smile, but it failed miserably. "I am fine," she said. Cursing underneath his breath, Aiden went over

    Author's AppreciationI started writing this earlier without this novel being finished, because I wanted to say something from the heart and not rushed. That doesn't mean my other appreciations are not from the heart. They are!You see, I have never been good with words and not always known how to respond to messages, emails, and so on. I am a freaking walking disaster, a one-woman circus clown kind of show, but I say this with much confidence: when I read a book and I laugh hard, feel hate, dislike, and cringe at moments which genuinely become a part of me, even if just for a time - it fills in my heart. I am overwhelmed by such talent to aid me grapple with my own emotions and go over every scene. Feeling satisfied and still wishing for more.

Trixson had been sentenced with a double life sentence for the murders she had been involved in. Boris had been given ten years for being an accomplice in Henry's homicide.

He was finally free. As he looked around, his eyes scanned the crowded streets, searching for a familiar face. And then, he saw her. Elsie stood out from the crowd, her flaming red hair shining like a flame. She wore a bright smile, and her eyes sparkled with tears, as she waved at him. Aiden's heart skipped a beat as he made his way towards her. Elsie still looked as beautiful as she did the first time he saw her at the Scott mansion. She wore a knee-length red dress that clung to her skin, exposing her heavy curves. As a result of the pregnancy, Elsie had gained weight, and her chest and ass had grown bigger too. She was

The judge announced, "After careful consideration of the evidence and the severity of the crime, I hereby sentence you to 7 years in prison for withholding information and obstruction of justice in relation to the double homicide case." My eyes had widened for a brief moment, but I accepted the sentence with a nod. I knew I deserved this punishment for my actions.

    Chapter 135; Promise me Two months later. On the day of Aiden's trial, after he had refused to file for bail, Elsie kept Eldon entertained by playing Legos when Aunt Rina walked in. The little lad ran to hug Rina, and she kissed him on the cheek. "Aunt Rina, where have you been? I've missed you," he exclaimed, his dimples creeping up as he smiled. Leaning in, she explained in a sweet voice, "I was busy, boy. But I'm back now..." Elsie, leaning against the counter in the kitchen, found their encounter very cute. She sometimes envied Eldon's relationship with Rina. A huge grin curled up on Eldon's lips, and he raised his arms, shouting out of ecstasy, "Yay, we'll all play together!" "We will," Rina confirmed, nodding her head. She reached out to touch the boy's cheek and pinched it fondly. "You should go to your room and wait for me there while I talk to your mom." The kid threw his arms up in happiness, spread them wide like wings, and ran out, making plane
