last update Last Updated: 2022-12-08 14:10:44

For almost two weeks Tyler didn't come home. He and General Max had been planning how to foil the plan of the rebels within their ranks.

All the information gathered by Jade was used. The enemy had no idea that they were being hacked by Jade.

Her skill in hacking was a top notch, entering their system without noticing it.

On the other hand, Jade and Colton always see each other.

"I'm alone in my apartment, you can live with me if you want," Colton said while they were having their meals.

Jade cocked her head up and gulped.

"What? You don't like to live with me?" Colton noticed her reluctance and was badly hurt.

He wanted to be with her to make up the time they missed. But here she was, unwilling to live with him.

"No… I don't mean that…" Jade shook her head incessantly while lowering her head.

"Then, why are you reluctant?" Colton smirked as he suddenly thought something. "You have a boyfriend?"

Jade raised her head abruptly with wide eyes and open mouth. "I don't have a boyf

    It didn't sit well on Tyler that she had avoided his touch as if he was carrying deadly virus. With a dark countenance he eyed her. "Go and freshen up, we are going out for dinner." Jade wasn't able to stop her eyebrow cocking up and asked, "What's the occasion?" "Do we need an occasion to dine outside?" Tyler sneered, answering her question with a question. Jade shrugged her shoulders and turned to go upstairs. While she was trudging to their bedroom, Jade tried hard to find the reason why he was taking her out for dinner. It wasn't her birthday and neither he, Tyler had just celebrated his birthday weeks ago. She gave up when she couldn't find a plausible reason. Tyler rubbed the spot between his eyebrows as he watched his wife having no idea what the occasion was. They have been married for a month today and he had come home to take her out for dinner. So, it was just him who remembered their monthsary. His mood was dampened even more as Jade seemed not to be excited see

    In a blink of an eye, Tyler's mouth covered Jade's mouth. Jade couldn't make out if it was his kiss or the wine she tasted from his mouth that intoxicated her.It was their second kiss. The first was initiated by her just to escape the danger she was in at that time. But now, Tyler started it under the influence of alcohol. If he wasn't under the influence of alcohol he wouldn't do it. That alone woke up Jade from daze and pushed Tyler away. Nevertheless, even in his state Tyler was way stronger than her. He didn't let go of her lips. He explored and plundered her sweet mouth as if there was no tomorrow. "Tyler," Jade murmured against his lips, her heart beating like a small animal fighting to free itself from a net. "Mm," he hummed in her mouth, not stopping from ravishing her mouth. Jade had to stop him. She was sure that when he became sober, all the blame would be upon her. She was the sober one between the two of them and it should be her to stop this thing from getting a

    The car was already moving when Jade finally recovered from her shock.She couldn't believe it. Tyler exposed their relationship. "You shouldn't have told her about us," Jade couldn't suppress her anger as she talked to him. Tyler was surprised to see her angry. No matter what he did to her in the past she never showed her anger. "I did that to protect you," Tyler didn't like that woman casting an accusatory glance and remarks at Jade. Jade gritted her teeth while she fisted her hands. Revealing their marriage just made things worse. She will be seen as someone who ruined a relationship. A woman who stole someone's fiancée. If she only knew that Tyler's girlfriend was a famous ballerina she would have a second thought on marrying him for protection and revenge.She was sure that she could find another way to exact vengeance and be out of danger. She reprimanded herself for being impulsive when she sensed danger. "I don't need it, I just need you to keep quiet at that time," Ja

    Tyler didn't talk to her when they were eating and Jade was unwilling to talk either. So the only noise in the dining room was the intermittent soft clinking of cutleries. When they were about to go to bed, Jade could not stand the deafening silence and decided to talk. "What is the progress of the mission?" She asked about it as that was their only common ground. "Plans completed and implementation will be the day after tomorrow," Tyler replied as he sat at the edge of the bed. "Do you have a target date to crush the rebellion?" Jade needs to know it because her freedom is connected to this mission. "Five to six months," he frowned and asked, "Why are you asking?" "When everything is over, both of us will regain our freedom," Jade's cheerful tone unknowingly irritated Tyler. Tyler stood up and strode to the balcony. He stared at nothing. Jade shrugged her shoulders. Only a few months from now, she wouldn't be seeing his mood swings. Jade slid under the covers. Few seconds af

    In a flash, time flew by and it was time to clock out when Jade received a text message from Luke and replied to his message. Soon after she sent her reply, her phone beeped, notifying her of the received text message. [I'll wait for you to come home. Be home at 9pm. Hubby] "Control freak," Jade muttered under her breath. Despite being annoyed at his message, Jade didn't forget to register his name on her phonebook. At exactly 7 in the evening, Jade was already in the restaurant. She was ushered by a receptionist to a private room. Luke was dashing in his three piece charcoal custom tailored suit. Remembering those gentle hazel green eyes gazing at her with such tenderness when she was a young girl, her eyes lit up and warmth flooded her heart. Her Luke hadn't changed. He was still as gentle as he used to be. Luke drew a chair for her and mouthed "Thank you" before taking her seat. During their conversation, Jade secretly wished that he would mention about the orphanage but

    The following morning, Tyler rose from the bed not after he had stared at the woman sleeping in his arms. For years, Tyler thought that he had psychological problems as he never ever felt the urge to kiss a woman or do anything intimately with a woman. Sophia always whines whenever he refuses to kiss her. He always avoided Sophia’s advances. She suggested that they would do what adults do but Tyler could not even bring himself to think about it. However, this woman in his arms whom he barely knew evokes something in him that he never felt before. Tyler frowned. He had to stop it while it was still early. He had made a promise to Sophia and he had to keep that promise. He was not a man who breaks his promises. At that point, when he thought about his promise to Sophia, Tyler put a safe distance between him and Jade. Each time he would come home, he rarely looked at Jade and did not hold her to sleep but resorted to taking sleeping pills so he could sleep. One day, Wilbur came ba

    Luke remained silent and chose not to make things harder for Jade. "Can we go now, it's getting late and I'm famished," Jade sounded coquettish. She was left with no choice to make the tense atmosphere relax, hence, she resorted speaking to him in such a coquettish manner in hope to pour cold water over Tyler's burning anger. At the restaurant, Tyler had been attentive towards Jade the whole time. He would put food on Jade’s plate, pour water in her glass and sometimes would wipe the corner of Jade’s mouth even if there was nothing to wipe. Jade’s cheeks were suffused with color the entire time Tyler devoted his time attending to her needs. All the time that Tyler was trying to rile up Luke, he kept his cool and didn’t want to misbehave in front of Jade. "I'm fine, Tyler. You haven't touched your food, you should eat now," Jade held Tyler's arm when he was about to put more food on her plate. "If you're so worried about me then, feed me," Tyler responded, making Jade's beautiful

    Tyler missed her soft and supple lips so much, he had been struggling to keep himself from kissing it again. He made up his mind to never taste her lips again until the day they divorce. However, seeing her with Luke changed his mind. They are legally married and there's nothing wrong with kissing his wife. By her sloppy kisses and trembling hands, Tyler knew that his wife is a virgin as well. A delectable smile appeared in his lips upon discovering that he was the first man in her life.He was extremely gentle toward her knowing that it was her first time as well. Though it was his first time to make love. He heard his comrades talk about how to deflower a woman so he wasn't clueless what to do. "Tyler," Jade cried at the searing pain she felt. Despite him being gentle, she didn't escape the pain as he entered. "Jade," Tyler groaned, his lips wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes. The veins on Tyler's forehead protrude as he fought control of his raging desire as pleasure

    "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.

    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.

    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
