Gregory, who heard him frantically calling his wife and son, went upstairs. "Sir," he said, his voice wasn't too loud nor too soft. Tyler turned. "Where's my wife and son?" Gregory, with red eyes as unshed tears stung his eyes, opened his mouth. "They left for Germany, but they met a.." "Stop!" Tyler was in denial, he can't accept the truth. "Colton called, Jade and Tim passed away on the spot," it was Pearl who dropped the bomb. "No! They aren't dead!" Tyler spoke with so much anguish. "Yeah, I wish it wasn't true and we were just in a nightmare and woke up that it wasn't true," Pearl bawled, her friend Jade was no more. She can't hear her little precious Tim say that she's the loveliest aunt he had ever had. "Stop crying they aren't dead!" Tyler was agitated to hear Pearl crying. "They're alive!" As he went down, he collided with reality. The televsion was open as Wilbur was watching the news regarding the car accident in Germany. The newscaster said, "Austria lost her fin
A bitter smile appeared on Tyler's handsome face. Jade hadn't forgiven him. Just as she did back then, she left him without a hint. "How about my son's remains?" He was hoping that Jade didn't deprive him this time. "My sister loved Tim with her life, my sister died with Tim in her arms. They were squash and it was impossible to separate them so they were cremated as one." Tyler pressed his lips into thin lines and didn't speak for a long time. Taking a sharp breath, he walked towards the urn. He didn't know how long he stared at Jade's photo. "You didn't even say goodbye to me, how could you be so cruel?" His long finger glided on the surface of her portrait and then it shifted to the urn. Two years passed by in a blurr. "Madam we found a man in the mountain, he is bleeding," Tyler was brought by two men into a villa near the mountain. "Bring him to the room," the woman said as she opened the door wide so they could bring Tyler to the room. Immediately, the woman took the med
Tyler frowned as he couldn't remember how he ended up in this place. The woman saw him frown and got worried. "Are you not feeling well? Do you want to be taken to the hospital?" She held his hands. Tyler pulled his hands at the burning sensation as if electric current passed through his body. The woman was stunned when he jerked his hands away. She lowered her eyes in embarrassment. "Umm… how about I'll contact your family so they can get you from here." Tyler shook his head. "I don't remember who I am and who my family is." "What? You have amnesia?" She jolted from her seat in surprise. "You don't have an identification card with you…" she paced back and forth near the floor to ceiling window, thinking how to help this man. "Alright, you stay here. When my husband arrives from his business trip, he will help you find your family," she broke up the silence. Tyler was uncomfortable when he heard that the woman was married. He doesn't know this woman in front of him yet he felt
The tremor in her voice made him come back to his senses and was remorseful to have used a stern tone to her. "I'm sorry, love," his voice gentled considerably. "When are you coming home?" She asked him instead, making his heart melt like a marshmallow. She had always been his weakness. She was also responsible for breaking the barrier he put up to protect his heart. When it came to this woman, he seemed to be defenseless. "There are few things I need to take care of in the collaboration. It'll take me a week to finish everything, most likely," he said with his lips twitching and she giggled. Getting bored staring at the window, Tyler decided to go out at the beginning of dusk. The stairwell echoed with the sounds of pounding feet, the woman absorbed doing embroidery, looked up. The light coming from the chandelier bath Tyler with light outlining his figure. He looked like he just came out from a magazine, though his forehead had bandage it did nothing to reduce his attractive
An inexplicable pain and glum swallowed Tyler's heart. A crease formed on his forehead as he frowned. Why does he feel like this?"So, where is our guest, wifey?" He dotingly asked as he touched the tip of her nose. "He is upstairs," she answered with her big blue eyes looking at him. Seeing her sparkling blue eyes like the deep blue sea shimmering under the sunlight, he whispered. "You're so beautiful." She looked away bashfully. They had been married for a long time and had a son but she's still blushing profusely whenever he sings about her beauty."Oh come on, don't be shy," he spun her to look at him but she put her palm over her face to hide her blushing face. The man threw back his head and let out a hearty laughter. After his laughter died down, he caught sight of Tyler who was standing on the landing, watching them. "Tyler?" His laughing face turned grim. The woman was surprised. "Do you know him, Luke?" In an instant, Luke sighed silently and hugged the woman tightly.
The flight from Switzerland to Austria was excruciatingly unbearable to Tyler as he kept thinking about Jade and Tim. Their giggles echoed dizzily in his mind and their smiles were like the sunlight giving warmth to his cold and void heart. Rubbing his temples, he leaned on the backrest. He closed his eyes to take his mind off Jade but his mind could only see her face, her big shimmering blue eyes and her smile that was as bright as the sun. Tyler inhaled deeply and slowly released the air as a budding frustration started to overwhelm him. He was perplexed that he was smitten with a married woman. What was in that woman that she could make his heart feel this way. While they were in the plane, Luke's assistant, Ross, gave him a file. The file contained information about him, Sophia and their child but information about him and Jade were omitted. Later, the car halted in front of the mansion. He looked at the mansion and he felt familiar with the mansion but at the same time an
At dusk, Tyler still had a slight headache. He went down as his stomach made a growling sound. While he was coming down the stairs a smile made its way on his lips without his knowledge as his thought was on a particular woman in Switzerland who had bright blue eyes and a voice like music. Sophia saw this and walked towards him, she thought that he was smiling at him. "Tyler, honey," she hugged his waist only to be rewarded with a rigid body and a frown. Tears gathered in her eyes as her eyes collided with his cold eyes staring at her. The longer he stared at the pitiful face of the woman who claimed to be the love of his life the more his heart got confused. Here he was in the arms of his so-called woman but his heart seemed to have been left in Switzerland. Did he really love this woman? Even if his brain had forgotten her, his heart wouldn't stop beating for her, right? His heart would still feel the love for this woman despite his mind not remembering. Could it be that he
"Is my wife and child inside?" Tyler frowned seeing his driver's dilated eyes and mouth closing and opening like a fish gasping for air after it was taken out of the water. He was going to ask the dumbfounded driver again when the door opened. "Welcome back, sir," the butler said. Tyler looked at the man and asked, "Good thing your here, you can answer my question since you're here." The butler glanced at the driver's stunned face and shifted his gaze to Tyler quickly, nodding his head. "Is my wife and child inside?" "Sir?" The butler choked in his own saliva and began to cough. Tyler was puzzled and furious all at the same time. Why can't they answer a simple question? They could simply say yes or no. He walked past the coughing butler and went in. Tyler himself wondered how he came to know where the master bedroom was. Once inside the master bedroom he looked around to find Sophia but she was nowhere to be found. He breathed a sigh of relief when she's not there. Dryin
"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
