Emerald is in the SoftWare Group and was finalizing the game she and Jace's team assigned to her. She couldn’t believe that she would be inspired to finish the project because of the recent events. Because her team was very reliable, she didn’t have problems in other areas besides some minor adjustments with their work, so she concentrated on her task alone.
“Dear wife, don’t overwork yourself.” Emerald looked up, smiling after she heard her husband, and found him leaning on her office door frame as always.
“I’m not,” she replied, waiting for Jace to come closer and receive his kiss.
“It’s past 6, isn’t that overworking?&rdq
A week has passed since Mr. Landers told Emerald about her grandfather's arrival. Young Morgan is in the Ace Family Grocer’s main office after Jace sends her there before he goes to his company. She is busy talking to Elise about the grocery's current condition.“I can’t believe we are growing this fast,” Emerald said, looking at Elise, who looked really happy.“I can’t believe it either. Before, I was happy with the ACEGame; I just looked around and provided you and Creep with what you needed legally. But after managing the grocery store, I realized that I like to do this.”Emerald looked happy after hearing from her friend. She knew she wouldn't be able to accomplish anything without her and Creep. Although young Morgan is very smart, she knows she needs people to guide and support her. That’s where Elise and Creep came into the picture.“We will be able to expand to another city. I will ask Daryl for a possible location,” Emerald said in excitement, and Elise agreed immediately.Ac
“How is everyone?” asked Jace, looking at Emerald and the other team who were ready to launch the game they developed. They all looked excited and very happy because they managed to finish everything earlier than planned and the whole esport industry has been waiting for it.The first time they launched their teaser, every gamer anticipated the game to be exciting and challenging at the same time. Emerald made sure that the players would be able to enjoy every level that they had to get through before advancing. The items they need to buy were on sale for the first week which the gamers will take advantage of. The story behind every character was written by known writers as well so everything in the game was worth the wait.“Yes, sir!” everyone replied before they clapped their hands. Emerald who was standing beside her husband was feeling nervous which always happens whenever she launches a new game. Jace took her hands and held her tightly to calm her.“Relax, dear wife. I’m sure ev
“Dad, can you come with me on the rollercoaster?” Ace asked. Jace looked at Emerald, who was laughing. That’s how the boy was; she knew he would never stop unless he got to ride there. They were in an amusement park where their son requested they go for family bonding.“You see, ahm–” “Don’t tell me you’re scared to ride, Dad.” Emerald couldn’t contain her laughter and let it out, making the father and son look at her, confused.“I’m sorry,” she said while waving her hands in front of them.“Are you laughing at me?” Jace asked with a furrowed brow.“Yes, Daddy. I’m sure Mommy is laughing at you because you look scared to ride the rollercoaster.” Little Ace said, teasing, making Emerald wink at him.“I’m not scared!” Jace exclaimed. Although he’s not fond of rides in an amusement park, he’s not a bit scared to try them. It’s just that he was worried for his son.“Will you be okay?” Young Higginson asked worriedly. Ace nodded in excitement, thinking his father would accompany him. “Alri
Emerald and Jace went to the hotel where Mr. Landers and Mr. Ferguson stayed. They talked to them about what happened in the amusement park while Ace played in one of the bedrooms with his nanny while waiting for them. “Then we have to give the boy extra protection; we can’t just let him go with his nanny alone even if someone is looking after them from afar,” said Mr. Landers, worried for his grandson all over his face. Emerald and Jace told him and Mr. Ferguson about what happened at the amusement park the following day. “I already thought about it and asked my investigator to look for a reliable man to become Ace’s bodyguard,” Jace replied.“Give my great-grandchild the best protection he could get, son. Make whoever he was trying to go against us regret his or their plan. Let them know who they are against.” Mr. Ferguson added, looking at Jace. He is not the type to flaunt his wealth, but after his daughter left and hid, he made sure to spend no matter how much just to find her. H
“Are you sure that this is their normal routine?” Hubert asks the man he hired to look after Emerald and their family. “We left them as soon as they reached home from the hotel,” the man answered.“What did they do there?”“I had no idea, and later another man came too.”“Who is that man?”“I haven’t looked at him yet. I just saw him earlier. As for the one staying in that hotel room, I heard from the staff that he was a business tycoon from another country.”“So, the couple were doing another business? They are really wealthy.” Hubert said.“I think so too. You know that Mr. Higginson is a well-known businessman. It was difficult to go against him.”“Are you scared now?” Hubert asked angrily.“Of course not! But I want to remind you that you must pay us handsomely; Mr. Higginson is not easy to deal with.”“You don’t have to worry about that. Emerose said that her bastard sister is wealthy in her own right. She was also the founder and CEO of the ACEGame, so we will hit the jackpot on
Emerald’s head pounding as she slowly came to feel the cold, damp air filling her lungs. Her eyes blinked open, adjusting to the dim light of a single bulb swaying overhead. She found herself in a grimy, windowless room, the walls stained and bare. Panic surged through her as she realized she was tied to a wooden chair, her wrists and ankles bound tightly with rough, cutting rope.She struggled against her restraints, but the rope dug painfully into her skin, making her efforts futile. Her mind raced, trying to put back together the pieces of memories of her abduction—the sudden yank as she stepped out of the Uber at the grocery main office, the rough hands dragging her into a van, and the oppressive darkness that followed after the man beside her gave her a hard slap on her cheeks after trying to fight them when she heard the men talking about Ace.Young Morgan’s heart pounded as she looked around the room and felt more scared. The only exit was a heavy steel door, and there was no s
“Where have you been, dear?” Asked Merly. She just left the kitchen and was about to call Emerson for breakfast when Emerose came in from outside.“Nothing,” the eldest Morgan answered before she went straight to her bedroom.“Are you not going to eat yet?” Her mother asked but didn’t bother looking at Merly, who shook her head and went to their bedroom to call her husband.The couple were eating when they heard a knock on the door. They looked at each other before Emerson motioned Merly to get up and check who was knocking. Merly sighed as she walked to the door and opened it.“Good morning. Is this Ms. Emerose Morgan's house?” Merly’s eyes widened, and she wanted to say no since it was the police who were asking, and she started to feel worried. “What do you want from her?” she asked bravely, but fear engulfed her. “We need to invite her to the police station.” “What? Why? What did she do?” She asked continuously and decided to close the door, but the police were alert and immedi
“Make sure that woman will rot in jail!” Jessica told her son angrily, who nodded his head. Because it was the weekend, Jace and his family went to the old Higginson mansion to visit his parents, who missed Ace so much. “Why don’t you let our grandson stay here and let us care for him while you handle the case?” she added.“Mom, we can’t do that. He has his grandfather and great-grandfather who wanted to be with him as well. Another thing, I can’t afford not to see and play with him for a day; how much more, Emerald?” Young Higginson replied, knowing his wife would never agree with his mother's request.“I’m sorry, dear, I didn’t think about that. I should have known because I also didn’t want to be away from my sons when they were Ace’s age.” Jessica said, looking at Emerald apologetically.“It’s okay, Mom. I understand how much you wanted to be with Ace as well. I’m the one who should be sorry since I can’t grant you your request.” Emerald replied in a low voice. She didn’t want to
MATURE CONTENTThe newlyweds returned to Jace’s mansion. He insisted they stay there because it was their home and where Emerald belonged. They were in their bedroom, and the next day, they would fly to Switzerland for their honeymoon.“I’m so happy you’re mine now, dear wife.”“I have always been yours, Jace.” Young Higginson smiled and cupped his wife’s face with both hands. Before the wedding, he had said everything he wanted to, including the reason for the suffering he caused her and how regretful he was.“I never thought you’d be mine again. Yes, I want you, and I love you. I thought you could never forgive me, as you said before you left. That thought wouldn’t leave my mind, and it made me fear that even if you came back or I saw you again, your love for me would be gone. That you wouldn’t want to feel that way about me again,” Jace said emotionally to his wife.“I tried, but I failed. I don’t know what it is about you, but that’s how I feel. I feel incomplete without you, like
It's "D Day," and Emerald stood before the large mirror, staring intently at her reflection. She couldn’t believe that today was the day of her wedding to the man she loved the most. At first, it was only a dream, but now, in just a few moments, she would be walking down the aisle to meet the only man who had ever captured her heart.They were already married, but for Emerald, this day was different. She thought that if they had a wedding ceremony before, it might not have been as special as today, with her real parents and loved ones present and Jace’s parents and families.“Mom,” Emerald said as she saw her mother, Ember, get in and stand behind her, smiling.“The stylist is here to get you ready. Are you prepared?” her mother asked with a smile, which Emerald returned with a sweet smile and several nods. “You don’t seem excited at all, do you?” Ember teased.“I can’t help but be excited, Mommy.” Emerald's eyes were shining brightly like stars in the sky at night.“That’s exactly how
Everything has become easier for Emerald. Her mother, Ember, now lives with her and looks after Ace when she and Jace are at the office.Mr. Landers and Mr. Ferguson are also doing well. The two will return to Italy to manage their business there. They invited Ember to join them, but she declined because she wanted to stay close to her daughter and grandchild.Mr. Ferguson had no choice but to let his daughter go, but Mr. Landers didn't want to accept it. He wanted to be with the woman he loved and had been searching for so long. So, after appointing someone to manage his company, he will return to L.A. to be with Ember for good and to propose marriage.Meanwhile, the police continue to search for Emerson, who has completely escaped after passing through a road without CCTV coverage. Creep also continues searching for routes where Emerson's vehicle could have passed.Emerose and Merly are still furious at the precinct about what happened to them. They never expected to end up in jail,
MATURE CONTENTThe two of them kissed passionately, neither wanting to stop. They were both burning with desire, and their hands began to explore each other's bodies. Jace managed to slip one hand under Emerald's blouse, causing her to arch her back."Hmm..." Young Morgan moaned as she felt her husband's fingers playing with her nipple after he unhooked her bra. Jace lifted her and placed her on a sturdy kitchen table.Emerald spread her legs to position Jace between them as he unbuttoned her blouse. She was excited and couldn't wait to feel the pleasure that her husband was planning to give her."I was planning on pampering you the whole day, dear wife. And that includes making love with you." Jace said after they momentarily stopped kissing as they gasped for breath. He was looking at Emerald with so much love, affection, and lust rolled into one."Don't just make love with me, Jace. Fuck me too. Fuck me like you never did before," Emerald said, almost delirious, as her husband's mo
"Where are we going?" Emerald asked her husband in surprise. She thought that after leaving the precinct, they would head straight to their offices. But she noticed that her husband was taking a different route."After all the stress you've been through, I think you deserve a break. Don't think about work for now," Jace replied, glancing at her after ensuring the road was safe. Emerald rolled her eyes at him, which made both of them laugh. "Kidding aside, dear wife. With everything that happened, you've been through so much worry and stress, so I want to make you happy and take care of you today.""It's up to you, I'm just worried about your company," Emerald replied with concern."Just like you have Creep, Daryl, and Elise in your companies, I also have Kyle. I can rely on my friend, so you have nothing to worry about," young Higginson explained. "Besides, it's not like I do this every day."Emerald didn't respond and just let her husband do what he wanted. She knew there was nothing
Emerson was now being hunted by the law. What happened was that he was about to visit Ember in the secret room when Jace saw him. The old Morgan wondered why the billionaire was there, but he chose to run when young Higginson tried to approach him.Meanwhile, Merly was causing a scene at the precinct after she was picked up by the police from their apartment. Mrs. Morgan couldn’t believe that her husband could do what the police were accusing them of. She vehemently denied the allegations about them being involved in Ember’s kidnapping.After the doctor discharged Ember from the hospital, everyone went to Emerald’s house. They were extremely happy, especially Ace, who couldn’t believe how large their family had grown. He used to live with his Mom and a few friends and didn't expect to have many grown-ups to be added to the people who loved him.“I’m so happy that you still succeeded despite everything that family put you through,” said Ember tearfully as she gently stroked Emerald’s c
Dr. Sanders and Ember were already eating while Cedrick just watched them. The doctor offered him food, but he let them eat instead. He wasn't hungry yet and was used to situations like this, sometimes going three days without eating due to investigations. He figured the two needed it more, especially if things got chaotic when Ronnie received his message."Isn't it a bit late for breakfast?" Cedrick asked the doctor. He thought Emerson had been depriving him of proper nourishment. He admired the doctor for not giving up on Ember after all those years he cared for her."This is the usual time they bring my food," Dr. Sanders replied. Cedrick said nothing further and went to the door, leaving it slightly ajar, hoping to hear something from either above or below.He knew the police might arrive at any moment, so he began to prepare himself. He needed to protect the two of them as best he could. Not because it was his job but because he wanted Mr. Landers and Ember to reunite. He wanted t
Just as the vehicle finally disappeared from their sight, Jace received a call from Ronnie. "Sir, the warrant has been approved. We're heading back there now.""Okay, thank you very much," replied Young Higginson. Ronnie said something else, which Jace just acknowledged. After ending the call, he turned to Liam and relayed everything the detective had said."I hope their leader is there too," Liam said, sighing."I hope so," Jace agreed, then looked back at the establishment and waited quietly.Liam also stayed silent, thinking that once all this chaos was over, he might be able to return to Italy. He knew and accepted that there was no chance of rekindling things with Emerald since Jace would never let them get separated. He felt thankful that the woman he loved would finally be happy, even if it wasn't with him.Meanwhile, Emerson had just entered Madam Z's office and received the news that police had come to their club the previous night wanting to search it. "What? Why are you just
"Do you think it will send?" Cedrick asked anxiously. Dr. Sanders had returned and said that he left the cell phone on top of a high cabinet, which the doctor believed wouldn't be noticed by anyone since the detective assured him it was on silent mode."I think so because the signal bar went up when I checked. I just panicked when I heard footsteps approaching. I can't afford to be caught, especially if the message wasn't sent successfully," the doctor said, thinking it was better than getting caught.Cedrick and Ember nodded, understanding Dr. Sanders' predicament. He wasn't used to such situations, so they could only rely on prayer for the success of their actions. As much as they wanted to do more, they couldn't risk each other's safety.They were nervous as they waited, knowing it was still early. Cedrick pondered the possibilities his colleagues outside might have done and shared them with the two. "If Ronnie received my text last night, he likely informed Mr. Higginson and the ot
