Jade sensed his body became rigid.
"Did Colton say something," Tyler knew that his brother in law held a grudge against him because of what he did to Jade.
And Colton was there when he and Sophia appeared together in Jade’s office. Colton was obviously angry to see him with Sophia.
Jade shook her head denying that Colton had to do with her decision. "No, I just felt tired and needed to have some breather."
*Are you going to leave me?" Tyler lost his control. He had been in the military and disciplined himself to keep his emotions under control, however, when Jade was concerned, he couldn't.
Jade looked up, contrary to her
Tyler looked at Jade with disappointment. How could she be petty? Sophia is in distress because of their child's poor health condition. Why can't she understand it? Is she that immature? She isn't even remorseful for what she'd done.Jade stared at Tyler who was holding Sophia protectively as if she was a delicate treasure afraid that even a simple touch would hurt her. Her heart was shuttered a millionth time as if it was impossible to put the pieces together. Tyler retracted his gaze and looked at Sophia. "Let's go, let's check on our son," he led Sophia out without looking at Jade. Sophia looked back and cast Jade a triumphant smile. The door closed loudly as if Tyler was signaling his displeasure. Jade laughed to herself. She was too naive to believe that he loved her. What happened today has proven that Sophia matters to him the most. He didn't even ask her what happened, he just believed whatever Sophia said. That night, Tyler didn't go home and stayed in the hospital wi
He felt something heavy on his chest and opened his eyes. He saw Sophia's head resting on his bare chest with marks on them. He was so stupefied that he didn’t notice that there were other people with them. "Sophia, wake up," he said softly as he gently patted her face. Sophia's eyes fluttered and looked at him bashfully. Her blushing face could tell that something had happened last night. "Honey," Sophia shyly hid her face in his chest. Dr. Garnet couldn't take the embarrassment anymore. He was so embarrassed having witnessed such an intimate scene like this in the hospital. He cleared his throat which called Tyler's attention. He jerked his head only to find that Jade was looking at him with her icy gaze. Sophia acted as if she was embarrassed being seen with a disheveled look in the arms of Tyler. She buried her face in Tyler's chest. Tyler stood up abruptly, took his shirt that was on the floor and put it immediately. The marks on his body and Sophia's skin was a glaring in
"You're a liar! What's with the marks on your bodies? Both of you have lovebites, don't tell me, you bit your chest, did you?" She stepped forward and slapped him forcefully. All the fury, frustration and pain of betrayal amalgamated in her heart that it gave her strength to slap him that his face turned to the other side, leaving a stark handprint on his face. Jade was the only person who was able to slap him. If it was another person who had slapped him he won't let that person off the hook. Tyler inched forward swiftly and took her in his arms. "Listen to me, Jade. There's nothing between me and Sophia, I was simply there for Jason." Jade didn't move, she stood like a pillar. "Do you think I'm a fool to believe you?" Jade smiled bitterly. "Yeah, I had been a fool. I was naive, believed you cared for me that's why I gave myself to you," Jade laughed as she cried. "I'm the biggest fool believing you again that you love me and gave you a chance to trample on my heart again." She
Displeasure arose from Jade's heart, narrowing her eyes, she said, "Tyler, don't talk nonsense to the child." Timothy blinked his big eyes and innocently held Jade's belly. "Aunt Pearl, told me about the symptoms of a pregnant woman." Jade could feel her son's excitement. However, given their circumstances now, getting pregnant will just worsen things. "There's no baby in there," Jade didn't want Tim to be disillusioned. Timothy looked up at his father, he gave him a puppy look. "Daddy, can I have a brother or a sister?" "Yes, you'll have it soon," Tyler patted the boy's head. Timothy beamed. "Really?" Timothy couldn't help but jump and shout. "I'm going to be a big brother!" "No! You're not having a sibling," Jade objected which popped her son's bubble. Timothy sat on the bed dejectedly. Jade felt the sadness of her son although she wasn't looking at him. She felt sorry for him. Their supposed trip to Germany ended up in a two week holiday in Greece. "Are you all set?" Ty
Instead of getting angry with her. Tyler pulled her in his arms and whispered. "Baby, I'm glad you're back." He was glad that he could draw a reaction from her. She's no longer like a mechanical doll that showed no emotion at all. Jade stiffened as she realized that he was able to elicit some reaction from her. "Tyler, I'm so tired of your game. Can you please let me go? Find a new woman you can play with. Aren't you bored yet?" Tyler tightened his hug as if he was trying to smother her life. "You're not my plaything! You're my wife! As long as I live, I'll never let go of you. Bear that in your mind," he showered her with his kisses. "You are mine," he declared. 'Yes, I'm all yours but you've never been mine,' she replied in her mind. She let him be and didn't struggle anymore. She laid her face on his chest as the rigor of day caught up with her. It was another day, the sun was rising from the east, blessing the earth with its warmth. But, Jade still felt cold inside. The on
Tyler smiled when his suspicion was confirmed. He had been observing Jade for the past few days. She was lethargic, always yawning and she would sleep all the way from the hospital to the mansion everytime he picked her. He had also observed that her food preferences changed and became weird. For example, she liked eating sour food. He heard her requesting Gregory to find a sour strawberry. She would sneak in the middle of the night to eat ice cream with that sour strawberry. Jade didn't know that Tyler would follow her secretly to check what she's been doing every night. Jade held her still flat tummy in surprise. She looked down while she caressed her belly. And her motherly instinct was awakened in an instant. When she looked up, her eyes met Tyler's tender gaze. She couldn't describe her feelings when she saw that gentle smile on his handsome face. "We have another baby," Tyler placed his hand over her abdomen, the warmth of his hand spread reaching her heart. The ice aroun
Tyler sighed. "What should I do to make you believe that I truly love you?" Jade looked up at him. The light cast an enigmatic aura onto him which made him look otherworldly. She stared at him for a while before opening her mouth to make her reply. "You should ask yourself what would make me believe you."What she was trying to say, if he truly loves her he would know what she loves and hates. He would figure it out as she wasn't hard to read. Any man who loved his woman would do everything to show his sincerity to his beloved. Women across the world wanted their men's absolute loyalty and faithfulness. No one wants to be cheated. If she isn't jealous at all, she doesn't love that man. Tyler stood up and carried her in his arms towards the bathroom when he saw that it was about lunch time. Immediately, after getting ready, they came down for lunch. Jade looked at Tyler when she overheard Cecilia and Jared's voice. "Did you tell them?" "No," he shook his head. "Jade, darling
As they were having a meal together, Tyler received a phone call from Sophia. "Tyler!" Jade frowned when she heard Sophia screaming. "Jason fainted." Tyler stood up and left in a hurry without a word. He didn't even give Jade a glance and just walked away. Jade lowered her head and had a tight grip on the cutlery in her hands, turning her knuckles white. Cecilia looked at Tyler's departing back with dismay and slightly shook her head. When Tyler arrived at Crescent mansion, his large strode carried him to Jason's room in no time. His heart sank as he saw Jason, lying on the bed unconscious. "Tyler," Sophia threw herself on him but Tyler pulled away. He held her arms and let her sit on the edge of the bed. Sophia gritted her teeth. He just exaggerated things so that Tyler would come home as he hadn't been home for a long time. Jason didn't pass out but slept. "Tyler, can you stay here? I'm afraid what will happen to our son," she looked at him with. Her eyes were begging him a
"We have to tell Jason about it. The boy should not be kept in the dark. No matter what, that is his mother," Jade said and sighed. "If he wants to see her for the last time, we'll allow him," Jade said again. They can't change the fact that Sophia is Jason's mother. If he wants to see his mother they will allow it. Jade felt the need for Jason to see his mother for the last time so he could get closure. As usual the dinner table was lively as the family bantered while they're having dinner. The family practice the stiff table manners among the aristocrats when they're having dinner with outsiders. But when they were eating with their relatives they didn't follow the stiff table manners. Tyler and Jade didn't want their kids to feel like being shackled. "Jason, mom and dad are going to talk to you about your mother," Tyler said while the family was seated at the patio after the meal. Timothy, when he heard it, being sensible, he stood up and about to leave but Jason stopped hi
Morning came, Jade abruptly sat up. As soon as she woke up she remembered Jason. "Hey, easy," Tyler's voice rang out. "Baby, is Jason back? Did you find him?" While she was surrendering herself to oblivion last night, she heard him promise to find Jason. "Yes," Tyler answered but the glum in his face made Jade's breathing erratic, she staggered backward. "What happened to him? Where is our son?" Jade was starting to panic again. "Answer me!" Jade said when he didn't answer. "Calm down, baby," Tyler pulled her to him. He swallowed. He doesn't know how to tell her that Jason received a hard beating from Sophia and the boy was in a coma and hadn't woken up yet. "How could I calm down? You're not telling me where my son is?" Jade was a sobbing mess. "Shhhh, alright, calm down first and I'll tell you," Tyler stroked her hair. "Tyler, please hurry up and tell me. I want to see him," Jade pleaded. "We found Jason last night, but he's in the hospital now. Sophia treated him brutally
Hatred flickered in the gray orbs of the young boy as he stared at the woman called his mother. Not once did he feel loved by her. Even when he was in her womb, she did not consider the effect of her vices on his health.In his mother's heart he wasn't a person at all. He was just a tool. A tool she could use so that she could keep Tyler. The woman his mother was berating, the woman who wasn't related to him was the one who surrounded her with unconditional love. The love he craved from his mother was given by Jade without an ulterior motive. Since the day Tyler took him back Jade did nothing but to make him feel loved and accepted. It wasn't for a show. With or without people surrounding them Jade was consistently kind and loving to him. The same love she showered Timothy and the twins was the same love showered to him by Jade. Jade hasn't carried her in her womb but in the heart of the boy, Jade is his real mother. "You! Why do you look at me like that? Did she brainwash you
In the morning, Jade walked into the kitchen with a limp. She gulped when she saw the back of her man. His tight fit t- shirt and joggers defined his broad shoulders, slim waist and perky butt. His muscles flexed with every move he made. "Didn't you have your fill last night? Have you?" Tyler chuckled, snapping Jade out from her reverie. Slightly annoyed, Jade rolled her eyes and snorted. Tyler chuckled and continued cooking. The kids and Jade were already at the table when Tyler was done cooking. Timothy and Jason praised their dad for his cooking skill. Tyler was smiling from ear to ear due to the boys' approval. "I'll take the boys to school and be back after that," Tyler said while he nuzzled her neck. "Aren't you going to the company?" Jade asked while she brushed her hair. "I've been away for four consecutive days, I would like to spend time with my wife," he kept nuzzling her neck. "Today is your day off and I have to grab this opportunity to have you all myself while
A confused Jade walked out of the hospital flanked by bodyguards. Once seated on the rear passenger seat, Jade fished out her phone from her bag and called Tyler. "Babe," Tyler's voice came over. Jade took note of his tired voice. "Is something the matter? Why did you send bodyguards to pick me up?" Jade tried to speak as calm as she could but her words gave away how she felt at this time. "It's Sophia… She's on the loose," Tyler didn't want her to get frightened but he won't let her keep in the dark. He wanted her to be vigilant. "How? The correctional facilities have tight security, how did she manage to escape?" Jade frantically asked. Her breathing became erratic thinking about her four children. Now that Sophia is at large, the children would be her easy target to inflict damage to her and Tyler. "Her parents were able to get a court decision to transfer Sophia from the correctional to a mental institution due to her mental illness," Tyler answered. "Jadey, Sophia is a cr
Wilson Heinrich was placed on his cradle after being fed. Jade took the name of her youngest son from his adoptive father Wilson and Heinrich, the man who saved her from those who sought to kill her. "Why are you wearing a long face?" Cecilia cast a question to Jared innocently. "You should be in a festive mood because your nephew and niece are delivered safely," Jade said, wearing a sad expression as if she was offended. But deep inside she was just trying to pry on his love affair. "No, I am very happy!" Jared forced a smile. "Spill it!" Tyler said when he saw that he was forcing a smile. "Alright!" Jared lifted his hands in surrender. Tyler could read him easily and couldn't hide from him. Furthermore, he needs sound advice. "It's Gwen," his shoulders sagged as he mentioned her name. Jade and Cecilia shared a look."She's leaving and going back to Germany," he sighed. "So?" Cecilia reacted as if she didn't know anything. "I fell in love with her." Tyler's lips twitched.
Jade felt her whole body froze and stood there like an ice sculpture.Is this the bad feelings I had a while ago? Is he going to ruin my wedding? Why? Why doesn't he want me to be happy with my beloved? "Jadey, aren't you going to welcome your brother to your wedding?" Colton chuckled. Hearing her brother's remark, instantly the knot in her stomach disappeared. Jade turned around slowly. Her brother's tender gaze welcomed her. "Oh Jadey, you're so beautiful," Colton said proudly. He gathered her in his arms. "How did you know?" Jade asked him when he set her free from his hold. "Your man," two days before the wedding Tyler phoned him. At first he was livid when Tyler said that he and Jade are getting married. But after ranting at Tyler on the phone for about five minutes and receiving no retort from the man. His anger dissipated. Tyler told him that although Jade wanted to get married without his knowledge. He knew that Jade was sad that Colton would not be there in the weddi
One day before Jade and Tyler's wedding. They were cuddling on the couch overseeing the mountains. Suddenly, Jade's phone went off. She picked up her phone. "Hello, how was your honeymoon?" "It's great!" Colton answered but his voice was a little bit agitated. Jade picked up her brother's mood even without seeing his face. "What's wrong?" "Jadey, we had just arrived at the airport but we have to fly to Germany. Something came up," Colton said. "Okay take care of yourselves," Jade said seriously but her heart was leaping with joy. They had a few exchanges before hanging up the phone. "You silly girl," Tyler poked her forehead. "I wonder what would be your brother's reaction after he found out what you did to his company's website." "How did you know?" Jade didn't say what her plan was to him. "I didn't forget that you're an expert hacker," Tyler said, eyeing her with a naughty grin."That will be only until two in the afternoon and then their website will be back to normal," sh
It's been a week since Jared agreed to Gwyneth's proposal. Every evening after work they would go out and Gwen would always act cute before him and that infuriates Jared. However, he could do nothing but stifle his anger and act along with her. In order to divert the people's people's attention from Jade and Tyler. Gwyneth would always have their photos posted on her i*******m with captions. [Love of my life… Jared&Gwenfoerever] Gwyneth had gained hundreds of thousands followers. Many were thrilled at the couple and wished their relationship to stand firm forever. Her phone notifications were nonstop and she had to turn off the notification on her social media. On the other hand, Jared had no idea what Gwyneth had posted on her I*******m because he was too busy to even look at these things. "Jade, what do you think? Will Gwen be able to capture Jared's heart?" Cecilia altogether stopped setting up a blind date for Jared when Tyler said not to interfere in Jared's love affair. T
