“And you can see when that doctor injected me with sleeping pills so that Daddy wouldn’t be taken and transferred to the operating room.” Jade’s teeth gritted as she spoke because of the anger she felt. “Is what Jade is saying true?” Luke stared at his wife and another child. Liza didn’t know what to say, so she just started crying. “Dad, we were also shocked by what the doctor did yesterday.” Debora explained nervously. “Were you also surprised when you hid Jade in the bathroom?” Tristan asked insultingly. He had been holding back from punching the two women, who were so good at storytelling.Luke weakly let go of his wife’s grip on his palm. He could not accept the gradual clarity and emergence of truth. “If I hadn’t forced the bathroom open, I wouldn’t have found Jade unconscious sitting in a wheelchair!” The tone of the young man’s voice rose slightly. Debora was scared and huddled next to her mother, and she was afraid of Tristan. If Jade hadn’t held him, he might have appr
“Why?”Jade cried again and weakly hit her sister on the arm. “Why did you inherit your mother’s greed?” “I’m sorry!” Jade quickly shook her sister’s hand when she tried to hold her by the arm. Tristan just stayed next to his girlfriend and weighed the situation. He let Jade scold her sister to release her resentment and anger. “I don’t want to go to jail, Jade!” She kneeled before her sister and begged. They no longer escape from a case against them because it was also discovered that her mother stole from the farm treasury. But about the transfer of the inheritance to her name, which was supposedly for Jade, she had just found out about that.Jade moved when Debora hugged her thigh. But she held her tightly while crying. She closed her eyes as she felt pity and guilt for her sister. Even though she doesn’t like her and hates her mother, Debora is still her sister. They both inherited it from their father, so they look alike. “Debora, why are you apologizing to that woman? We hav
“Dad, how are you feeling?” Jade asked her father worriedly when he opened his eyes. Earlier, he lost consciousness when he knew that the police had arrested his wife and Debora. Luke looked around sadly, hoping to see her family. He still couldn’t accept that his wife wanted to kill him, especially his daughter, Debora. Jade caressed her father’s cheek and understood his feelings. “Dad, I’m sorry. I didn’t want to destroy your family, but I won’t let them harm you because of the wealth you’ll leave me.” Luke’s tears fell, and he stared at his daughter. “You are innocent, and I do not blame you.”Tristan breathed a sigh of relief at what he heard, and he just quietly listened to the father and daughter’s conversation. Fortunately, the gentleman did not make a mistake in speaking. If he blames his girlfriend, he might punch him, even though he is sick. “Dad, thank you! I will not leave you, and I will take care of you.” Jade cried and hugged her father. “Babe, what about me?” Tri
Liza was still able to clench her hand tightly while in handcuffs and in deep thought. She glanced again at her daughter, who was still silently crying, before turning to their lawyer. “Mrs. Sober, this is the last option I can advise you to reduce the sentence that the law will impose on you.” The persuasion by the lawyer who was sent by Luke. “What about my daughter? Won’t she go to jail if I admit all the crimes?” Liza is still not convinced about her daughter. Debora looked up and felt sorry for her mother. She already knows her plan, and it hurts her. It’s also her fault that her mother did something bad. She was the first to not accept that she would only receive a little part of her inheritance from her father because she was an illegitimate child. But now she realizes that Jade is left with a lot more because of her mother’s shares. “Mom, what will happen after I go out without you?”Liza reached for the hand of her daughter, who was also handcuffed, and squeezed it. “Your
After taking a shower, Jade went to Tristan’s room. She didn’t knock, and she brought her key card. When she entered, he didn’t even bother to look at her, and he kept his eyes focused on the laptop. It didn’t seem like he was going to go to sleep right away, like she expected. The white towel is still hanging on his shoulders, and his wet hair has not been combed. She passed in front of the young man and tried to disturb him. But he was still busy typing on the laptop keyboard. She took something to eat and pointed it in front of his mouth. Tristan glanced at his girlfriend for a moment and accepted the chips she was giving him. “Thank you, babe. You can go to bed early if you’re sleepy.”Jade sighed and lay down on the sofa where the young man was sitting. She laid her head down on his thigh, and he just let her be. It seems that what she is doing to disturb him is not effective, so she gets up again and hugs him. Tristan sighed softly and glanced at his girlfriend. It has been e
Jade woke up restlessly from her deep sleep. When she looked next to her, Tristan was not there. Annoyed, she got off the bed and looked for the young man. She still thought that she would make him go to sleep early. But the opposite happened, and she was the one who fell asleep after hot sex between them.Jade looked at the clock hanging on the wall. It was only five in the morning, but Tristan was no longer by her side. She didn’t even know if he had slept last night. She was about to leave the room to look for him when she noticed the bulk of the man on the terrace. She immediately approached him, and it looked like he was talking to someone important on the cellphone. “Mom, please go back to sleep. It’s still early, and I’ll call you later.”Jade breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that the young man was only talking to his mother. It seems that his mother is not sleeping well, and she was bothering Tristan so early.“Son, what are you really doing there, and it took you so
“My friend, you are finally back here in the city. How are you in the mountains?” Trisha jokingly asked while hugging Jade tightly. Jade smiled back and hugged her friend. She still stayed in the first house she stayed in when she first went to Manila. She wanted to stay at the hotel, but Tristan didn’t want to agree. He said she was safer in this house, even though there was nothing to worry about. She also doesn’t like his condominium, so there will be no issue with his family. Because she already has an idea of what the young man’s mother’s behavior is. “I heard that you almost perished at the hands of your stepmother,” Trisha continued to ask her friend. “You’re really gossipy.”Trisha and Jade were both looking in Tristan’s direction. Jade smiled at her boyfriend, who had come from the bathroom. “Gosh, Brother Tristan, it’s out of the deal that you too will live here!” Trisha looked at her cousin exasperatedly. “Tsk, why are you here? Tomorrow is your wedding day, so go ahe
“Son, Patricia made a cake, and I brought it here for you to try it.” Jade looked at the camera when she heard the lady’s voice. She recognized the young man’s mother, and she was carrying a small tray.“Patricia was worried because you didn’t eat, so she made another meal for you.” Smiling, Cheska placed the tray on the small table. “Thank you, Mom. She shouldn’t have bothered anymore because my girlfriend has ordered food for me.”Jade smiled when she heard what the young man said. She noticed that the lady’s mood changed when she heard about her son’s girlfriend. She didn’t pay attention to that anymore when she saw a woman enter. The first time she saw her, she already guessed it was Patricia. She thought her job was as an assistant, but from the look of her outfit, she was more than a prostitute.“Tristan, I brought you something you can drink. I hope you like the cake I made, and I know that flavor is your favorite.” Jade frowned as she stared at the woman. She still acted sh
The teacher was surprised to see a student in the doorway and looked angry at them. The gay teacher was about to approach him, but their dean came.“Alexander, what are you doing here?” Rosella commented to her godson.The gay teacher was surprised, and their dean knew the young student.“Tell them that it’s not their job to talk about their colleagues behind their backs.”Rosella sighed, and she saw her godson angry because of a woman just now. She looked at the teachers inside the faculty, and she could see the wonder in their faces, and it might be because a student was only talking like that to her. “I’ll take care of this,” she said almost in a whisper to the young man.Alexander left without a word and walked straight out of the campus hot-headed. He did not attend to his next subject.“Ma’am, does that student have a problem?” The gay teacher asked their dean.“The gossip is enough. If I catch anyone of you talking about Ava, you will be suspended; do you all understand?”Those
Luisa grinned. “There’s no need to make an effort because your unique smell is wafting away,” Luisa said in a taunting way.“Alright, my unique smell is free, and since it’s free, then feel free to smell it as long as you want. But don’t blame me if you have an upset stomach. Too much sniffing is also bad for your health.” She laughed when the aura on Luisa’s face suddenly darkened. She was annoyed again when she was the one who had started to argue with her in the first place.“Bitch!” She hissed. If only the look could kill, Luisa was sure that Ava would fall to the ground lifeless.She had turned her back on Luisa, and she knew that she would have a heart attack soon if she was only sick. It was still early, so she went to the faculty first. She was also full because of Alexander. Upon entering, the people there were suddenly silent. It looks like she is the topic again, well, obviously because there are traces of guilt on their faces.“Hi, Ava, have you read the circulating blind
“Alexander, enough… uhmmmm!” She tries to stop the young man, but she is unable to push him away from her body. She admitted to herself that his searching kiss was addictive, and his hand caressing her thigh added to the sensation that envelopes her body.When he got tired of the girl’s lips, his kiss crawled down her neck. He knew he would be hanged for what he was doing, but he couldn’t stop himself. Ava is like a drug that made his addiction grow. And for Godsake, even his hands seem to have a mind of their own and know where to touch in the girl’s body. His satisfaction didn’t end there. He wants more; his hand is searching for something.She gasped as her chest heaved when she felt the young man’s hand enter her top clothes. She stopped his hand before it reached her breasts, but she lacked strength. The sensation nearly drowned her.“Shit, why do you still have your period until now?” Alexander complained as if frustrated while gently caressing the young woman’s healthy breasts.
“Alexander, don’t compare that child to all the girls that you have made your toy. Because even if she’s just a maid’s daughter, I value them so much, and I consider them part of our family!”Alexander smiled after remembering what his grandmother told him. She still didn’t believe what he answered to her, but she still gave him the information he asked for.“Do you see something funny in my face?”Alexander blinked. He didn’t realize that he was stunned while staring at the girl’s face. He continued chewing before answering her. “Why are you so beautiful, baby?”“Alexander, how many times should I have to remind you not to call me baby because I’m older than you?” She complained angrily to the young man. “Alright, then let’s get into the point; say yes so you can be my girlfriend and I can be your boyfriend before I change our endearment.”“What? Are you insane? Are you courting me for you to say that to me?” She glared at him. So, this is how Alexander thought of them? Alexander s
Ava angrily hit the young man on the arm with her hand when she recognized him. If she only had a heart disease, she might have been attacked because of frightening her.“Ouch, baby!” Alexander caressed his arm even though it didn’t hurt.“Moron! Why do you have to drag me here without a word?” She glared at the young man. The Jew just grinned at her. It’s so good to smack his face. But she immediately reprimanded herself, and something else came to her mind.“When I say come with me here, will you come willingly?” Alexander’s asked at the girl philosophically.Ava glared at the young man. It is obvious what her answer will be to his question. Of course, it’s a no. What will be the reason for her to come here and to the private office that only the chairman uses? Even if it is said that the chairman is his father, it is still embarrassing.It was his first time to enter that room, and she couldn’t stop her own eyes from wandering to the beautiful staff inside the office. She looked at
Miranda was once again impressed with Alexander when he perfected the exam. He’s not just handsome, but he’s also smart. Brix is not lagging behind either, but he has five mistakes. And her? Here she is; her score hangs in the balance like the rest of her classmates. It doesn’t matter; the important thing is that she still has something to be proud of, and that is the beauty of her face and body.“Girl, are you serious about Alexander being your birthday escort?” Julie asked in a whisper.“Yes, it’s easy to change the invitation.” She smiled and knew that her mother would give her everything she wanted because she was her only daughter. Her brothers also love her and are ready to fight when she is hurt.“The question is, will he agree?” Julie asked her friend teasingly.Miranda glared at her friend; they had free time, so they had time to chat. They went to the canteen and looked for Alexander, but they couldn’t find him.“Ms. Ava, a present has arrived for you, and it’s at the facult
After entering the classroom, Ava immediately looked around. The first person she saw was Brix. He seems to be calm now and not drawing attention to her. Good thing then; maybe he realized it because she slapped him yesterday.The next thing he looked for was Alexander. She frowned when she saw that the young man’s seat was empty. She looked at the others there, and the young man might have just moved seats. But she was just disappointed, and he wasn’t there. She looked at the clock hanging on the wall. The class will start in just three minutes. She didn’t want to spoil her day so much, so she unfolded the papers and turned on the laptop.“Am I late?” Alexander asked from the doorway, gasping for air.Ava suppressed the smile that wanted to appear on her lips when she saw Alexander. His hair was messy, obviously not combed, but she would admit it that he was still handsome despite his messy look. He looks like a bad boy, but it fits on him. “Next time you will enter earlier,” she sai
It was late at night when the gathering ended. They also slept there in their grandfather’s mansion. This gathering of them rarely happens. He hung out for a while on the terrace facing the garden and thought.“Brother!”He turned to his cousin Terence. This is the eldest son of his aunt Trisha. “Why aren’t you asleep yet?”“I just wanted to ask something.”Alexander stared at his cousin. He is only fifteen years old, and his sibling that is younger than him is older than Terence.“Brother, how old were you when you had sex with a girl?”Alexander seemed to choke on his own saliva and stared at his cousin. “Have you never had sex with a girl?”“Tsk, I’m not like you, who is a womanizer and a pervert.”Alexander grinned and placed his right palm on his cousin’s shoulder. Like him, Terence is also a big man. There’s no mistaking him as a teenager. “You want me to teach you how to please a woman?”“You think I can do it at this age?” Terence looked doubtful.“Of course! I was only fourte
The whole family is complete in Travis’ old mansion. His grandchildren are also complete because it’s their grandma’s birthday. There are guests, but only close friends and relatives. This is exactly how Shaina’s birthday is, and she hasn’t liked many people celebrating her birthdays ever since.“Grandma, happy birthday! I’m sorry I’m a little late.” Alexander kissed his grandmother’s forehead.Shaina smiled and hugged her grandson. “It’s fine, grandson, and I know you’re a young man now, so it’s normal that you’re doing something else.”Alexander grinned, and his grandmother really knew him.“But what I heard is that you have fenced a woman in at your university, so you entered there even though you didn’t have to?” Travis said, sitting in a wheelchair.Alexander scratched his neck and looked shyly at his grandfather. When it comes to women, his grandfather was strict, and for him, he became rebellious.“Is she the one who will make you wiser?” Travis asked.“I guess I got karma from
