Sensing that Tim was uncomfortable with his touch, Tyler retracted his hand and thrust his hand on his pocket. He couldn't blame his son for being aloof. "Go to daddy," Jade said, she can't just do nothing to ease tension. She just wanted her son to know and feel how it is to be with his father. Even if everything turned sour for her and Tyler, Jade didn't want Tim to hate his father. Tyler pulled his hand from his pocket and picked Tim, carrying him in his arms. Tim reflexively grabbed Tyler's neck. Joy saturated Tyler's heart when Tim didn't refuse being held by him. Temporarily forgetting that Jade repulsed his touch, Tyler bent over to kiss Jade on her cheek. Surprisingly, Jade didn't repulse his kiss. "Kiss your mom before we leave," Tyler said, still bent over so Tim could give Jade a peck on her cheek. Later, after Cecilia and Jared left, Jade dozed off after thinking so much. A touch on her wrist that had been slit stirred her up. She squinted before she fully opene
Two servants who heard Sophia went to look what had happened to the mistress of the house. "What are you doing here?" Sophia looked at them with bloodshot eyes. She picked up the vase near her and threw it, aiming at the servants. To dodge the flying vase towards their direction the servants ducked on the couch, successfully avoiding being hit. Soon, a crashing sound ensued. The moment she saw the picture of Jason and Timothy, she had a feeling that the boy with Jayson was Tyler's son. One thing that she was sure of was that Jade is the boy's mother for Tyler had no other woman besides Jade. "You have snatched him away from me. I would be dumb to allow you to take him away from me the second time," Sophia said with so much hatred. She had used dirty tricks to break apart Tyler and Jade. Again, this time, she had no qualms using dirty tricks to have what she wanted. Back in Jade's mansion, Tyler and Tim arrived. "Da…," Tim vacillated between calling him dad or not.Tyler's h
"Jason is in the hospital!" Sophia frantically said, pacing back and forth along the hospital corridor. Tyler sprang from his seat at once and left the room forgetting to say goodbye to Jade. Gloom shrouded Jade while she stared at the back of the man who claimed to love her but forgot her existence the moment he heard Sophia's voice. Only a fool would believe such a claim. And she refused to belong to the category of women who had been fooled by sugar coated words. Jason was brought to the same hospital where Jade was admitted. So he ran towards the emergency room.When he arrived in front of the emergency room, Sophia threw herself to him. Feeling her trembling body, Tyler hugged Sophia to support her and stop her from collapsing. Sophia looked up at him wearing a pitiful look. She knew that Tyler is a compassionate man hidden under his cold facade. "Tyler, our son," she let her tears stream down continuously as she looked at him. Sophia achieved her goal to melt him as Tyle
His face was hard as a flint. With a voice that held much restrained power he answered. "No!" Jade sobbed as her frustration increased. "Why can't you understand that this marriage was a mistake to begin with and it's bound for destruction." "It wasn't a mistake, we are destined," Tyler refuted with much conviction. Not wanting to agitate her more, despite wanting to comfort her, he smothered his desire to wrap her in his arms.Jade couldn't hold back and laughed like a lunatic. "You believe in destiny but I don't!" Perhaps, destiny is true but Tyler and her weren't destined to be. It was him and Sophia who were destined to be. "Whether you believe it or not, you and I will stay together. And if you run away, I will find you in whichever corner of the world you run to," Tyler left as soon as he delivered his thoughts. Two days later, the physician gave a go for Jade to go home to recover. "Dr. Leitner, whatever you're going through, pull yourself together as there are many live
At that moment, Tyler's mind seemed to malfunction as he didn't know what to do. Still in daze, Jade smiled, making Tyler's heart leap. He bent down to capture her lips. Jade responded and buried her face in his neck when she pulled out. "Jade," he whispered with a husky voice but Jade had no response. He settled her on the bed, only to find out that the woman who earnestly kissed him was sleeping. Doubt filled his heart that she was just pretending to be sleeping. Hence, he called out once again while he gently patted her face. "Jade." Jade opened her eyes and sat up. "You're here!" She looked at her side. "Where's Tim?" At that, Tyler discovered that she responded to him while asleep. All at once, the happiness brought by her fervent response to his kiss banished. Dejection slowly crept in when he thought further. Perhaps she was dreaming about Luke at the time she kissed him back. "Hey, where is Tim?" Jade repeated when she got no answer from him. "He's in his room," Tyl
The woman who held his heart was forcing herself to touch him. Tyler didn't notice the tears sliding down as he tried to bear the pain of being repulsed by his beloved. Tears trickled down his face, melting her bloody cold heart. The repugnance she felt vanished. Her hands were still trembling but no longer of disgust but compassion for the man crying before her. "Tyler," she whispered while she dried his tears using the pad of her thumb. "I'm sorry," Tyler said as he looked at her with all his tenderness. Without a word Jade accepted his apology and felt something heavy lifted from her. "Could you rest your hand on my hand?" Jade shyly asked. She felt like they were back to the old times. Tyler gladly granted her request and put his hand over her hand. Unblinkingly, Tyler fixed his gaze upon her to observe how she would respond to his touch. Expecting the aversion for his touch, he was surprised to see that she was shy just like before. All he could see was a blushing face, j
Tyler and Wibur's eyes met but they looked away immediately. "No, but thanks, madam." Wilbur said, wearing a slight smirk on his face. He knew his former boss had always been possessive when it concerns Jade. Creating trouble for Jade wasn't in his vocabulary. He had loved her as his own sister as she had treated him like a family. Jade raised her eyebrows and looked at Wilbur with a questioning look. "I'm not hungry yet," he immediately turned and left. Wilbur didn't tell her the truth that he was starving. An hour later, Tyler and Jade were in the car as they were headed to the hospital as Jade was on a morning shif
It was a tiring day for Jade as she performed a major heart surgery. As a result, after five minutes of being swayed in the car while traveling, Jade felt drowsy and drifted to sleep.Gentle smile bloomed on Tyler's handsome face while he gathered the sleeping woman into his arms.The driver was about to inform them of their arrival to the mansion but swallowed his word back when he saw Tyler place his forefinger over his lips, beckoning him to be quiet.With a smile, the driver nodded in recognition of the order. At once the driver went to open the door of the rear passenger seat.Carefully, Tyler lifted her in his arms and avoided waking her up. However, Jade stirred.&n
