Apart from pecking her cheek from time to time while they had their meal. Tyler behaved himself and did nothing naughty. From the outside, the butler could hear the intermittent giggling from Jade. And it made him smile at the thought that they already made up. When they were done eating, Tyler summoned the butler but not after capturing Jade's lips for another intense kiss. "Are you staying here?" Jade asked when Tyler seemingly has no plan to leave. "Don't chase me away, baby," Tyler said while he hugged her from behind, he was acting like a kid which gained a chuckle from her She turned to him and cupped his jaw. Staring into his hazel eyes. "But, I have to do consultations. Are you sure you won't get bored?" "How do I get bored when watching my woman in action?" He replied. Jade crossed her arms just below her bosom and said, "You're getting better and better at sweet - talking." "I'm sincere, baby," Tyler raised his hand to show that
A crease emerged between Tyler's brows as he frowned. He wanted to show the whole world that Jade was his and he belonged to her. Just the same, he couldn't complain to her for keeping their relationship from the public. "Alright, I'll wait for you," he said with a sigh.Jade shook her head when he heard him sigh. Right away after the call, Jade gathered her things and took her leave. In an instant she recognized Tyler's car, waiting for her near the hospital entrance. Taking ten steps forward, she reached the car. The driver opened the door for her. Soon after the door was closed, Jade was enclosed in Tyler's arms. He held her dearly like she was an irreplaceable treasure. "I missed you," he murmured in her ear. "Did you miss me too?" He asked. "Umm," she hummed her reply."I want to hear you say that you missed me," he demanded while planting feathery kisses on her neck."Tyler, what are you doing?" She got butterflies in her sto
As her daily routine while in the hospital Jade did her rounds. When her rounds came to conclusion, taking hurried steps, Jade made her way to her office and reached it in under five minutes. Consultations commenced immediately after her secretary spotted her entering the office. Taking the file of the first patient, Jade remembered the person who wreaked havoc in her marriage. While her eyes were trained on the patient's file, two people came in. She lifted her eyes and met Sophia Ludwig's parents. They seemed to have aged considerably after Sophia's scandalous action had been trending on the internet. Being the culprit of his marriage falling apart, Sophia was punished by Tyler for making sure no one could suppress the news about Sophia's immoral deed. No one dared to step forward to help Sophia suppress the spreading news knowing that if they did they were actually declaring a war against the ruthless business mogul, Tyler Zimmerman. In Au
The door opened, a tall and handsome man came in pushing a food service trolley. It was obvious that the hotel staff were discreet as the man did not look in their direction even once. He concentrated in arranging the table for them and then left without looking back. Jade was relieved and her worry disappeared in an instant. "Did you like the food?" Tyler asked Jade. He specifically asked the chef to prepare something that a pregnant woman could eat without feeling nauseous. "Obviously," Jade said pointing at her empty plate.She looked at him with her big and bright blue eyes.Tyler's pulse somehow raced and chuckled. He felt silly. It was obvious that she liked it based on her empty plate. But because he wanted to talk to her he had asked anyway. They had been quiet the entire time they were eating and he just wanted to hear voice. "You're right," Tyler rubbed the back of his head as he chuckled. "What were you thinking? You're so quiet," he said, lightly brushing his thum
Three days later in SalzburgIn the huge luxury hotel suite, a man was kneeling in front of a woman sitting by the edge of a king size bed. The foot of the woman was over the lap of the man while he was massaging her calf. They just came from a sightseeing and Jade's feet and legs were swollen and sore. Because Jade was so engrossed in taking pictures she lost track of time and only stopped when feet and legs began to complain. "Ouch!" Jade yelped as Tyler massaged her calf. "Bear with it, love," he said apologetically. He blamed himself for not stopping her earlier despite knowing that it will be the result later. He had actually enjoyed watching her taking photos that he forgot time. They didn't come out the day they arrived in Salzburg instead they spent the time talking. Pouring what was in their hearts and minds. If they want their relationship to last for a lifetime they have to start it right. And starting right is to remove all doubts between them. That is to clear al
In the middle of the night, Jade was startled to find out that she was alone in the huge bed. For a short while, she sat at the edge of the bed before heading to look for Tyler. She spotted Tyler standing in front of the floor to ceiling window. Obviously, he was lost in his thoughts. From behind, Jade slid her arms around his slim waist and leaned her face on his back. The frantic beating of her heart when she woke up without him by her side subsided the moment she felt the heat coming from him and smelling his clean scent. Tyler turned around to face the woman behind him.Jade looked up and said, "Is there something that's bothering you?" Tyler cupped her face and planted light kisses on her face, then it trailed down her neck before his lips grazed her shoulders and collar bone. Jade sensed that he was trying to distract her so she wouldn't ask anymore. But she will not allow to be kept in the dark again. "Tyler, don't…" she bit he
"Baby, it's time to wake up," Tyler whispered in Jade's ear. "Uhmm," Jade hummed while opening her eyes. "Good morning, beautiful," Tyler said and planted a kiss on her forehead, tip of her nose and lips. "Have a shower and we'll head down to have breakfast before leaving," Tyler helped her get up from the bed and led her to the bathroom. Jade looked around and saw everything was ready. All she needed to do was to have a shower. Emerging from the bathroom, Jade was surprised to see Tyler standing by the door like a guard. "What are you doing here?" "I'm not at peace to leave you alone in the bathroom but I don't want to watch you taking a shower," Tyler responded with a smirk. "You!" Jade knew what he meant and playfully hit his chest. Due to pregnancy, Jade was lethargic and dozed off during their trip back to the capital. It's only when they arrived at the airport that Tyler had woken her up. Tyler was reluctant to part with Jade after they arrived. However, he had to respec
Grabbing his phone after donning his suit jacket, Tyler, with an easy athletic gait strode towards the elevator. He didn't stop working except the lunch break he had which only took him around fifteen minutes and resumed with his work again so he could finish everything before leaving his office. He was eager to see Jade but he wouldn't leave his work undone. He can't slack off as thousands of employees depended on him to put food on their tables. Even while he was in the car going to Jade's mansion he made some phone calls to business partners. Just as his last phone call ended, the car pulled up in the courtyard. Tyler looked at himself in the rearview mirror and checked if he was looking great. He straightened his necktie and suit before climbing down the car. After which, he again straightened his shirt and suit. The driver he had been observing Tyler couldn't help but smile. Tyler was like this ever since he had been pursuing his ex- wife. Always wanting to look at his best
"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
