Noah POV

It amazed me how efficiently and effectively Briana took charge.

She was amazing. She looked like a woman who can do anything regardless.

With my bodyguards surrounding us, Briana helped me to her car.

“The Rosewood Hotel has its own clinic, but I wanted to be assured of your condition if a competent neurologist will look into you.” She explained when her driver opened the door for me.

She slid into the backseat after helping me and ordered the driver to the nearest hospital. In less than five minutes, the car parked at the entrance to the emergency room.

Briana supported me. She wrapped an arm around my waist. And though I can manage to walk alone, I zipped my mouth shut.

Who can complain when someone you love openly wraps you in her arms in broad daylight – even if it was for the wrong reasons – I would take it any time of the day.

At the doctor’s clinic, the nurse gave Briana a form to fill out while the doctor asked me questions about the incident that caused us to rush t

    Briana POV"I don't see anything wrong with your test. " The doctor said.Noah and I looked at each other in relief.I was worried earlier and was howling orders at my people to get the woman accountable for hitting Noah. I later learned that she was a diplomat's wife."Ms. Ford, the subject was not associated with Britney, but her husband cheated on her several times." The head of Rosewood Hotel security department informed me."What should we do about her?" He asked."Where is she?""At the security office."“Throw her out and ban her from all branches of Rosewood Hotel effective immediately,” I told him.“Her husband had already arrived and was asking for an apology. He is also willing to pay for damages.” The head of hotel security added.“I don’t need money or his apology. I need him to get his wife in line." I said with gritted teeth, and then as an afterthought, I added,"Ask him to submit his wife to medical tests. Normal people do not hurt other people on impulse.” Then, I

    Briana POVWhile Noah was in the hospital, I made some arrangements.“Belle, can you do me a favor?”“Sure.” She said.Belle had been working for me in Martina’s absence. It would have been easier if Martina was around. She could help me lay out my plans. But my favorite brother -note the pun on the word favorite - took her without my consent. They had not shown up since yesterday.If Belle had not been around, my work at the office would have piled up, especially as I have been at the hospital since yesterday. I never left Noah’s side and tended to him even if he asked me to go and be with the kids.“The triplets would miss you. At least one of us should stay with them. I am going to be fine here.” He tried to assure me, but I could not leave him alone.I had this irrational fear that if I left him for a minute, he would be gone.It was probably a delayed reaction to what happened and the information overload. It was too much to take in at one go.I feel confused and uncertain.I

Must be a stroke of luck.Hanna picked up my call, but my excitement plummeted upon hearing her lackluster response.“I don’t know what you are talking about.” Hanna sounded tired, but I couldn’t end the call without confirmation.“It was all over the news. Someone attacked Noah at the Rosewood Hotel. Where was he admitted?” I asked.

They smiled when they spotted us and raced toward us, crying happily.They hurriedly climbed the bed and squished their soft little bodies between us.Briana laughed when she got pushed to the extreme side, and the children occupied the center of the bed.I, too, wiggled my body near the edge to give them room while hugging the three of them in my arms. Their little bodies endured my embrace for a while before they started wiggling, wanting to be free.I released them.“You are not sick,” Riley commented when he did not see medical devices attached to my body.“I told you I am not.” I agreed.“So, why are they keeping you here?” He asked.I lifted a hand to tousle his downy hair and smiled indulgently at my firstborn son.I never realized that I could miss this little person so much. My heart almost ached.“I asked them to keep me here s

He was lying on his back while his brother, Brixx, lay on his side with his hands tucked under his cheek. Mason, on the other hand, lay on the opposite side of his brother.“You had been staring at the triplets too long,” Brina commented. “Do you miss me, wife?” I asked teasingly and felt satisfaction when she looked like a cornered cat looking for an escape.I left the bed and walked to the chair next to her. Then, I pulled Briana toward me. She landed on my lap.“Noah.”“What?”She was blushing.“The children might wake up?”I arched my brow. “So?”I wrapped my arms around her waist and burrowed my face on the back of her head. I took a whiff and smelled her shampoo.“You smell divine, wife.” I let the word wife roll on my tongue, reveling at the sound.It was like I was on a discovery, and the shock of knowing we

    Briana POVWhen we got home, my brothers already knew about our planned transfer to Noah’s home.“Do you think it’s wise?” Rowan pulled me aside so we could talk away from Noah and the kids.I nodded at my brother. “We need to start acting like a family,” I told him.“What if he changed his mind again? What if he decided later that he does not want you and the kids?”I shook my head as if to ward off what my brother said. The mere suggestion caused a stir in my heart, making it unsettled.“That was before. Noah only divorced me because he had amnesia.” I blurted out. I gathered there was no way my protective brother would approve of the move if he did not know what drove Noah to do what he did five years ago.I watched Rowan’s face for his reaction. A frown formed on my face when I realized Rowan did not look the least bit surprised by what I revealed.“You know about it?”Rowan nodded slowly. “I got information, but it was not confirmed.”“And you did not bother to tell me?”Rowan

    Speechless! This word best describes what I was feeling right now. Do you know that you were amazing readers? Yes, you who stayed with me until this page. When I first started writing this story, I had so many trepidations. I did not think I would be able to pull this through. First, it has a little similarity to my previous novel, Billionaire Ex Wants Me Back, but my editor believed so much in my draft that she encouraged me to consider doing this. (My heartfelt thanks to Lyra Pinter, who had been a constant source of support.)My feeling of uncertainty magnified when I received so many attacks when the story was first published. Too many detractors lashed out at my characters that I had a hard time concentrating.I know what I wanted to do, but the first people who were vocal about the story did not give me enough encouragement. They did not give my characters a chance to redeem themselves as the story progresses. Fear grips me everytime I face the blank screen of my computer

    Briana’s POVThe soul always knows how to heal itself. I had often heard that phrase before but it was never more gratingly obvious til now. After I volunteered to be Charles and Jenna’s surrogate, I had not counted on the pain the act would invariably inflict on me. At the start, it was all too easy. For 40 weeks, I would be carrying their baby in my womb, and that was it. Jenna and Charles will have that baby they desperately wanted. Of course, Noah and I submitted to counseling before I did this, but I never expected that when the time came that I had to turn over baby Amira to her parents, it would hit me so hard. I had not counted on how my self-sacrifice would backfire on me. It hurts so much. I was so heartbroken when I realized that Amira would no longer be a part of my life. Noah took me to several sessions of counseling, and with his support, I was able to get past the hurt and accept that Amira was not mine.The rest of the family helped. My brothers hovered over me

  • SORRY DEAR EX, IT'S YOUR LOSS, NOT MINE   Author's Note

    Hello my loves, Jenna and Charles’ story was one of the most painful stories I had written so far. It was because I had to dig up long-forgotten events in my life.But I had to do it for you to be able to understand the motives behind Jenna and Charles’ actions and the pain they invariably inflicted on each other. Jenna and Charles were both non confrontational. They keep things in stride and hope for the best, but sometimes even with the best intentions, our pain could not lay hidden for too long. It needed to be addressed and voiced out, not because you wanted to lash out at your partner or give them the same pain they were giving you.Sometimes, our silence is our cry for help. Or it was a way to protect ourselves. We retreated into the inner recesses of our soul to find solace and comfort because the people we expected to comfort and provide solace for us could not hear our cry for help.But all’s well that ends well. Am glad for those people who had requested me to do a story
