Kate saw when Jenna went out to the kitchen, as she had been watching them since Adam arrived. She took advantage of this and sat down opposite him. You couldn't see his eyes, but you could sense that he wasn't well. And even though she feared it was a bad time, she needed to support him, whatever he was doing. She believed it was something about Anna, because after talking to Jenna, he left in a hurry, looking lost. Maybe something bad had happened to her, and that would be the gift Kate would sell her soul to hear. “Adam... I want you to know that you can count on my support, in everything. I'll always be there for you. “I appreciate that, Kate. But... Today I intend to have my meal only in Jenna's presence... I'm not belittling her, but I have business with her.” “Don't you want me to make something for you?” “Yes, I do. Go to the kitchen and tell the cooks and my men that your lunch will be served on the balcony table today. You must tell Caricatura that the kitchen d
Adam pushed his empty plate away and smiled sarcastically at Jenna. “Did you really think I'd allow you to run off to warn her and her father, Jenna? Did you really think I was that naive?” “I... No. If you don't let him, he won't know anything, so you can tell me.” “So, Jenna, don't tell anyone about what we're talking about here. It would be a lot of work for me to manipulate your mind so that you can't write anything else. As for how long I give her, it will depend on the life she's leading there... I bet her father will enroll her again. And if that's the case, I'll wait for her to graduate. I don't want her to miss out on any of her adolescence, and changing schools means she won't have any friends her own age. I want to steal her happiness. But there's unfinished business between us...” “You put a detective on her, right?” Jenna asked smiling, interrupting Adam. “I don't leave my treasures without proper attention. After her escape, I became more careful.”
Maxwell followed her in contemplative silence. She didn't even notice his various reactions to her own as she looked at each room. She found the room that had been prepared for Ian, and it was simply beautiful. Her room and Maxwell's room were next to Ian's room. She entered and then turned to him and said with a seductive smile. “What do you say we open our room?” She said, pulling him by the hand. “The bedroom?” He asked with an amused look on his face. “All the rooms. We'll make love in every room of this mansion. Even the kitchen.” She said, unbuttoning his shirt. “It'll take us about three days.” He said mockingly, as the mansion consisted of seventeen rooms. “Three days non-stop, my wife. Are you prepared to have my penis inside you for that long?” Anna continued to unbutton his shirt, but Maxwell felt her hands begin to tremble slightly. “Then let's not waste a second. I want you to keep that promise, my husband. It's going to be a wonderful experience.” She said
Anna looked at him angrily. She knew from what she had been studying that, as a father, he could demand and even win custody of Ian. She was no fool. But at that moment, she had to think first about what she would do to resolve this issue. She clearly couldn't defy him. Maxwell had a great advantage. He was a judge, a billionaire, powerful and...” She left and didn't see any servants in the house. Perhaps she would have to spend the night there, and the next morning she would know what to do. So she went up to her room and opened the drawer, hoping that there would be some clothes that would suit her. She didn't want to wear that dress anymore. She found several outfits and even pyjamas. She put one on and lay down. Then the tears came. Maxwell had taken the shine off that night. But she knew she was guilty. She created expectations around people. She thought he loved her as much as she loved him. But that wasn't the case. From then on, she wouldn't fall in love with anyone els
It really was beautiful. She sat on the swing and while she was distracted, she suddenly looked over and saw three children playing in the park, and they were having fun, while Maxwell, Henry, and Jenna, watched them with their arms crossed and a proud smile on their lips. She shook her head. Anna knew she had just had a vision. And from the look of the children, they were Maxwell's children, but she couldn't see herself giving birth again. Also, she didn't know if it was Maxwell's wish to have children. And with that thought came worry. They hadn't prevented each other in any of their relationships. She put her hand on her belly. Perhaps the choice to have children was no longer up to her and Maxwell. A child could already be inside her. But this time, she wouldn't run away. She would talk to Maxwell, and together they would decide what to do. She had confidence in his character. And on the other hand, he didn't deserve to have a child without knowing of its existence and without p
“Your father is important to my family. My relatives on my biological mother's side regard him as a brother. I can't deny him anything, because on several occasions, together with your mother, he has saved my family. But I don't approve of his way of life. He's intelligent. He'd be a great businessman, but he doesn't listen to me and continues to make a living without raising a stink. I gave part of his mother's inheritance into his hands and after he multiplied his fortune, he turned back to the world of the mafia. I don't want Ian to know a life like that. It could influence him in many ways. He might see that life as splendid, like everyone else. When that movie about the Godfather came out. In the life your father leads, he's the main character in that movie, only in real life.” “You're right... But I'll let him bring Ian here on weekends when he's not hosting his 'friends'. Do you agree?” “Does that mean you want your father to live here?” “Yes. It's close to his apartm
Kate walked through the garden nave of Adam's mansion, which had been prepared for the occasion. She was happy and sad at the same time. She didn't know why he hadn't allowed any of her relatives or friends to attend her wedding. She only saw strange people, and Adam's armed men everywhere. Werewolves. Nameless faces and strangers who smiled at her as she walked to meet Adam, who, like her, had chosen to get married in a white dress, was wearing a white tuxedo. She was forced to agree not to invite anyone, as he had made this a condition of the wedding. However, he let her choose her dress, without worrying about the price. And she chose the most beautiful dress she had ever worn. She imagined him unbuttoning each of the hundred little pearl buttons on the back of the dress. She knew she looked beautiful. The look in everyone's eyes was like her own when she saw herself in the mirror, after she was completely ready. The justice of the peace was quick with his words, as if
Adam got up and said in Kate's ear that he needed to go to the bathroom, and that he would be back soon, and quickly left the table. Kate didn't miss him, and didn't even notice that he was taking his time, because throughout the party he didn't say a word to her, and just stood silently watching the guests. Adam entered his office and Alexandre and Caricatura were waiting for him with a bottle of champagne. They toasted each other and only at that moment did Adam show any joy. He looked at Alexandre and remembered that he had to repay him for the information he had obtained. He knew everything that Sarah and Kate prepared for him, and through their hidden cameras in the house, he realized that Kate put a liquid in every drink in the house. This prompted him to order Jenna to empty them and replace them with non-spellbinding liquor. Sarah was an experienced witch and knew what would work on a werewolf. It took a lot of work for Jenna to replace all the booze in the house, an
