Chapter 36; What are you up to rodnaya? "What are you interested in?" After long pause, Aiden inquired breaking the silence. Since he loved, he would want to make her happy and if occupying herself would do it. He was interested. In an instant, Else's eyes sparkled, she said excitedly waving her unharmed hand " Auntie Dahlia has agreed to teach me about traditional medicines and how to use them. My mom used to be a herbalist too. " "Okay. " Seeing he readily agreed, she twisted her lips wanting to ask for something bigger. The real goal, so she started softly"Hubs, I also wanted to enter the entertainment industry as an actress." Immediately,Aiden jerked up from his seat, his eyes darkening " No!" Sitting up, Elsie glared up at him, pleading "Please, it has always been my dream." From childhood she had always want to be inside the industry but this time she had another motive. And that was to bring down that wretched,she would steal every good role
Chapter 37; My husband is an enigma Frowning, he said, "What are you up to, Morbida?" He spotted her sitting on his nef looking at the family album. As he approached, she was pointing at the photo and laughing. It was a photo of him in a diaper. He was playing with yellow yarn. Even as a baby, he was stoic and dominating. Sitting next to her, he moved closer, his eyes hovering above the photo album. "What are you doing?" Laughing, she raised the book, pointing at a picture of six-month-old baby Aiden dressed as a sailor. "You look so cute here. I want to pinch those chubby cheeks so bad." Elsie turned the page to another where he was clad in a pirate outfit, holding a sword made of butter. "Who are they?" Elsie pointed a photo of the family. She recognized the mother Loretta Scott, grandmother Justina Scott and father Lowe Scott but not the siblings. And of course her husband. "My brothers Chase Scott is the oldest is the one at the right, Adam Scot
Chapter 38: We are a perfect family. A sleek, jet-black Rolls Royce Phantom drove into the fifteen-car limit garage of the Morbida Mansion. The powerful engine purred softly as it came to a halt, its glossy exterior reflecting the ambient light with an air of sophistication. Aiden's long strides echoed as he entered the mansion, his loafers making muted sounds due to their rubber soles. The quiet living room welcomed Aiden as he made his way towards the staircase, carrying a black suitcase. "Mom, I think the chocolate is enough..." Aiden's movements came to an abrupt halt as he caught the sound of his son's voice drifting from the nearby kitchen. Curiosity piqued, he changed course and followed the familiar sound. The kitchen had been rebuilt two days ago after the incident. Aiden's mind briefly flashed back to the memories of that event, a frown etching deep lines on his forehead. "Let me add just a little more," this time he heard Elsie's pleading voi
Chapter 39: I will get whatever I want. In the opulent office, decorated with fine furnishings and adorned with tasteful artwork, Sebastian Hawthorne sat across from Aiden at his exquisite mahogany table. Sebastian, a charismatic man with an impeccably styled black suit, emanated an air of confidence. His ensemble was completed by a one-of-a-kind silk tie, showcasing his impeccable taste. "I can't believe she asked to join the entertainment industry. Wow, she really wants to leave you. What did you say?" Sebastian inquired, his voice laced with a mixture of surprise and concern. Using past experiences, Sebastian was sure that Elsie would use this newfound opportunity to constantly meet with Henry Rowan and even worse, other men. For a woman who drugged Aiden so she could climb into his bed, she displayed several categories of shamelessness. Sebastian only pitied his friend, who fell for the wrong girl. Someone who could not recognize and cherish his love for her. I
Chapter 40: I think my memories are returning "Mom, how does this look on me?" Eldon walked out of the changing room along with his father, wearing a yellow standard collar cardigan. He had insisted that Aiden help with trying on new clothes. Presently, Aiden had surprised his family with a shopping spree. He had taken Aiden and Elsie, bringing them to one of the biggest malls in the city. They were in one of the stalls trying on clothes. "Il mio protettore, you look so handsome," she exclaimed, pulling him into a tight hug. Having had enough of the embrace, Eldon pushed his mother slightly. Confusion flickered across his face as he asked with a hand gesture, "Il mio what? What is that, Mommy?" Pinching his cheeks, she told him fondly, "It means 'my protector' in Italian." "Yes, it does," Aiden agreed, slipping his hands into his pockets. His gray eyes held an indecipherable emotion as he looked at Elsie in deep thought. As realization dawned on Els
Chapter 41; You've been missed In a rental store, Elsie rented a laptop for an hour. It was a short amount of time to accomplish a lot, and she hoped her husband wouldn't notice her disappearance. The store boy offered her his private room for a price. Elsie cracked her knuckles and stretched her arms out of habit. The laptop turned on, displaying a background photo of Trickson Dale in a beautiful sundress. Elsie couldn't help but scoff. "When I'm done with you, Trix, you won't know what hit you. You'll be begging on your knees, kissing my feet, and asking for my help." As her fingers quickly ran over the keyboard, she logged into her account on the website Dark-HorseMen, a platform where hackers find jobs and get paid. Elsie hadn't logged in for over seven years, so the new features were strange to her. There were more hackers on the web, but she was still the most wanted of all. She hadn't even been online for two minutes, and she already had over twenty job
Chapter 42: Am I Not Family? "Where were you, Elsie?" Aiden inquired the second she returned to his side, his gaze darting to her sling bag and the shopping bag she hid behind her back. The arm had gotten better so she no longer wore a cast.Aiden had seen her buying a watch and shopping for clothes. Suddenly feeling nervous, she rubbed her neck, muttering, "I went to use the restroom. Are you people done with your shopping?" Elsie's gaze fell on her little boy who was holding his father's hand. Behind them stood three bodyguards carrying several shopping bags. The little lad let go of his father's hand and took steps ahead to his mom, explaining in ecstasy, "Yes, mom, daddy bought me a load of toys and gadgets." After hearing this, Elsie glanced at Aiden, who stood mightily, and then at her son. She widened her eyes and said, "Wow, buddy. You are very lucky to have a father who loves you." "I know, mommy, but mom, where is your own father?" Elsie's heart th
Chapter 43; You are my fairytale At this point, April could not think of a way out. She desperately wished to have lunch with her brother, but unfortunately, she had to leave. In the end, she clenched her teeth, folding her hands as she offered her apology. "I'm sorry for the disturbance I caused. I will take my leave now, but before I go, can I say goodbye to my nephew?" The manager, observing the situation, could see through April's insincere apology. He understood that she was only trying to save herself from further embarrassment. With a dismissive wave of his hand, he responded, "Fine." April awkwardly handed the chair over to the manager and sluggishly made her way over to Eldon. Her intention was to stall for as much time as possible, hoping that Aiden would return so she wouldn't have to leave. April contemplated asking Elsie about Aiden's whereabouts, but deep down, she knew that Elsie, being a cunning woman, would not reveal the truth. Suppressing
