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
However, due to his experience with Sophia, Tyler could easily read her despite her innocent facade. Tyler mercilessly crushed her hopes when he opened his mouth to speak. "If you're done teaching my son, you can leave. And you don't have to come back for another lesson," Tyler said coldly as if he was trying to make the woman freeze to death. This time the teacher came back to her senses because of the heavy blow and looked at Jade asking for help.It was too late for her to acknowledge Jade. Jade shrugged her shoulders. "He is my son's father and he has the right to decide who should and shouldn't be Tim's teacher." Tim blinked his eyes twice as it dawned on him why his parents did it. He went in between Jade and Tyler. His right hand held Tyler's left hand while his other hand took Jade's right hand. The family of three watched the teacher gather her things with a bowed head and left while crying. On her way out of the mansion Colton ha
Jade's eyes grew wide as she feigned annoyance. Tim acted along and put his hands together as if praying. "Please, mommy! Let daddy join us."Jade was getting better with her acting. She rolled her eyes and said, "Whatever?" Her reaction conveyed that she reluctantly gave in to Tim. Tyler bowed his head, hiding the smirk that successfully made its way on his face. This time Jade let her two boys walk first and stayed behind as if she was dragging her feet and hesitating to follow them. Tim chose a movie and deliberately used the small bean bag to sit on while leaving his parents to use the bigger bean bag. He had his back at them so he could give them their private moment. Tyler and Jade tacitly looked at each other and knew what their son's intention was. Tyler and Jade cuddled while Tim was focused on the movie.Early in the morning, Jade was confused that she woke up on her bed. From what she recalled she cuddled with Tyler in their home theater. She was certain that Tyler
The following day, Tyler assented when he heard soft knocks coming from the door. "Sir, I have already informed your driver," his new assistant Duncan West said respectfully with a lowered gaze. He can't look into Tyler's terrifyingly cold eyes. He had a business dinner with one of the biggest car manufacturers in Germany. They wanted to have a cooperation with Tyler's company. Their company's president has personally came to Austria to discuss the collaboration. While he was heading to the venue of the business dinner, Tyler didn't forget to call Jade. "Babe, have you arrived already?" This morning Colton left for Thailand with his new wife, Pearl, for their honeymoon. Tyler suggested that she and Tim will stay in the penthouse at the top of the hotel so he could spend time with them. "Yes, we're already here," Jade said while her eyes trained on Tim who was seated on the couch watching TV. "I can't join you for dinner tonight. Eat
"Hey, miss me already," Tyler said with a light chuckle. "Baby, are you done with your meeting?" Jade asked while looking at Timothy looking weak. "If you're done, come to the hospital, Tim has a high fever," Jade sniffed. "What?" Tyler came into the elevator, followed by Gwyneth. "Baby, don't cry. I'll be right there okay?" Tyler's face was pale due to anxiety. Gwyneth could hear how worried the man was. But when he hung up the phone he still managed to cast a glacier aura. Sending chills over her entire body, covering it with goosebumps. Tyler made a phone call when they were out of the elevator. "I need you to come back here," he barked at the driver. "Sir, I am stuck in a traffic jam," the driver answered. "Then call a cab for me," Tyler had never used a cab in his entire life so he had no idea how to get a cab. "Mr. Zimmerman, my driver is already here. If you're in a hurry, I can drop you off," Gwyneth said.Tyler looked at
The following morning, Jade was woken up by Tyler's buzzing phone. Tyler picked the phone, he was already dressed, ready for work. "What!" Tyler exploded in anger. "Baby," Jade got up from the bed and came close to him. She then, wrapped her arms around his waist to pacify him. Based on his flaring nose and crimson red ears, he was livid. "What's wrong?" Jade asked when Tyler hung up the phone. Tyler led her to the bed and they sat on the edge. He embraced her tenderly but Jade could feel the panic in him."What's the matter?" Jade asked while her hand stroked his back in a tender way to ease his panic. Tylet released her from his embrace and took out his phone. Sighing, he searched for the trending news and handed her the phone. Jade looked at the photos calmly. Tyler holding Gwyneth's arms while she was looking at him. The photo seems to be intimate. The other photos were of them dining. Tyler wear no smiles at all but he was intently looking at Gwyneth who was apparently
Jade answered Colton's call when they arrived at Tim's private suite. Worry flickered in her eyes as she looked at Tyler. The news was still making its rounds in the internet despite the statements that the Mullers released denying the allegations that Gwyneth and Tyler are lovers. Probably, it reached Colton by now. "Jadey, how are you," a hint of worry could be heard in his voice. Inferring that Jade was devastated because of this news as his sister was still in love with her ex husband. "I am good, Colton. Why did you call? You're on your honeymoon," She feigned that she didn't know the reason for the call. "Are you sure you're okay?" Colton dubiously asked. Perhaps she's just trying to be composed, not wanting to disturb his honeymoon. He was doubting that she's fine. After the news about Tyler having a young lover. Or she has no idea about the news at all. "Don't surf the internet for the time being, okay?" He instructed. Jade burst into laughter, gaining a puzzled loo
Blaming the hormones for her mood swings, Tyler caged her in his arms to appease her. "You aren't happy to marry me. You're just forcing yourself," Jade finally let out what was bothering her. "What? No!" Tyler exclaimed, and chuckled afterwards. "You have no idea how happy I am that we'll be getting married again. I wanted to shout for joy but I couldn't because I don't want to disturb Tim's rest," he said and planted a kiss on her temple. Tyler unwound his arms from her and cupped her face and held her gaze with his captivating hazel eyes. "You have marked me already and no woman could erase the seal you place in my heart, mind and soul. I belong to you alone my entire life and I wouldn't change anything about it even if given a chance to change things in my life." He ran his finger along her nose bridge. "I know you have a lingering fear in your heart because of what I did in the past." He took a deep breath. "I did those because of the children I thought were my own. I don't w
"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
