He rose from his kneeling position, a radiant smile lighting up his face as he swept me into his arms.We embraced tightly, our hearts overflowing with joy and love. I could feel his lips press against mine, a gentle and passionate kiss filled with the promise. The world around us seemed to fade away as we held each other, relishing in the moment.As the evening progressed, we enjoyed the rest of our romantic dinner date under the starlit sky. We shared stories, laughter, and dreams for the future of our little baby. I couldn't help stealing glances at the beautiful ring on my finger, it just looked so beautiful and inrisistable Eventually, we made our way back to our room, our hearts still brimming with the magic of the evening. Alexander's touch was gentle and tender as he helped me settle into bed. He whispered
Chapter 109Emma's POVThere was no one to help me, no rescuer in sight.Just when I thought all hope was lost, I looked up through the murky depths and saw a faint figure. It was the little boy, his hand was stretched towards me. Hope surged within me, and I swam towards him with all the strength I had left. "Hold on, little boy! I'm coming!" I shouted, my voice echoing through the water.But as I reached out to grab his hand, I saw the most horrific sight I had ever seen in my life, the child's features twisted and contorted, and he transformed into a grotesque blob of blood and flesh. Horror swept over me as I realized that he had suddenly died now. No no noI screamed in terror, the sound muffled by the water that surrounded me as his body that was all blood now had began entering the water and mixing up with his. Panic surged through every fiber of my being as I felt a searing pain across my body. I looked down and saw blood streaming from countl
Chapter 110Olivia's POVI woke up looking at James sleeping body, he looked bad but at least he was getting better, his breathing was steady and his lips quaked occasionally, I looked at his lips when he opened his eyes."Good morning" I said with a blush as I felt my cheeks burn red with embarrassment."Good morning, how are you?" He asked me as he tried to sit up. I helped him up and said "I'm fine, how was your night?" "It's was fine". He said as he laid his back on the wall with his eyes closed. "I'll go get breakfast" I said using the opportunity as an escape.I walked out of the room and looked left and right before closing the door then I hurried down to the kitchen and asked Maria if Alexandra was around which she denied to my relief.I asked her to prepare some food for me because I was very hungry but as I listed all I wanted, she gave me a look as if wondering if I would be able to eat the food all alone and I just smiled.I decided to take
Chapter 111Olivia's POV "Olivia, I can explain, you have to trust me, I didn't know he planned to harm you or James or anything of the sort". He said with a pleading tone."That doesn't change the fact that you're in cohorts with a man that put me into coma for years" I said and heard him sigh."Olivia I-" he tried to speak . "Just leave" I cut him off with my back against the door. He stayed for a few seconds before I heard him walk away. I breathed a sigh of relief before I went to open the wardrobe for James."You really need to talk to him. He'll understand" he said. "I'll tell him when I feel that the time is right". I said with finalty"And when will that be?" He asked me and I stared into his eyes and said. "When I know he can be trusted."James kept quiet and we ate in silence. I felt bad for snapping at him like that but I was doing it for his safety. I still hadn't figured out how that mysterious man was able to sneak into the mansion and
Chapter 112Olivia's POV"Olivia, what's wrong?" I heard Emma call up from behind me. "Nothing". I said as I thought of what next to do. "Nothing? But I heard your voice all the way from my room". She said. I gave her look before an idea came into mind and I said "Alexander is the problem" before running out and into my car.Emma chased after me and got into the car while I pulled out my phone and using the built-in gps, located the tracker I placed on Alexanders' phone. I knew it was a good idea to bug him. I explained what happened to Emma before I got a beep from my phone indicating that Alexanders' location has been found, he was on the other side of town. I quickly started my car and raced down the road only to meet the maid Maria my best friend at the end of the gate. She stopped me and I asked her to get in, Emma explained what happened to her while I drove to the location the tracker was giving me. As we got closer, we saw less life and less p
Chapter 113Olivia's POV"Now Alexander, you have a choice to make. Either you kill James, or I kill them all". Lance said as he looked at Alexander."Alexander please don't do this" I said while trying to escape the grasp of the man holding me hostage."Alexander, do it, you have to, it's the only way to save everyone". James said without fear."No Alexander, don't listen to him, James what are you saying". I cried."Do it Alexander, it's the only way". James said. "So Alexander, what will it be?" Lance said and I looked at Alexander."Alright, I'll kill James". Alexander said as he cocked the gun in his hand. "NOOO", I screamed as I hit the man holding me in his balls and grabbed the gun in his hands and pointed it at Lance."Tell your men to back off now or else I'll shoot" I said as my hands shook. "You and I both know you don't have the guts to shoot, now why don't you be a good girl and drop the gun or else" he cocked the gun in his hand, "I'll shoo
Chapter 114Olivia's POV"At least we all made it safely and now you no longer need to doubt your brother and keep him at a distance". He said."Gosh I feel so stupid! I said so many bad things to Alexander. Will he ever forgive me. Gosh I'm so fucked up." I said with tears streaming down my cheeks and just then, Emma's doctor walked up to us."Are you guys related to Mrs. Emma?" She asked us. "Yes doctor, I'm her sister-in-law".I said as I stood up. "Well I'll need to speak to her husband"."My brother, her husband is currently undergoing treatment of a gunshot wound, is there any problem ?" I asked. "No, Infact, I have good news. Mrs. Emma just delivered a baby boy" she said with a smile and I laughed out of joy.I gave James a tight hug and quickly called Maria to give her the good news. "Doctor, can we go and see her?" I asked. "She's awake now but she'll need some rest so you only have 10 minutes". She said and led us toward Emma's ward.I walked into Emma's ward and saw her smil
Chapter 115Alexander's POVI drove off to the station and told the inspector everything that happened 3 years ago and how I got inflicted with lance and his underground mafia group.Once I was done with the police, I drove back to the hospital to meet Emma and my child but I met Olivia and James just outside her ward."Olivia, I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to hurt anyone, I was just trying to -"I was saying when Olivia walked up to me and gave me a hug."It's alright, I understand, James already told me everything to me, I was just angry with you, I still am but like you were going to say, you were just trying to help and I appreciate that". She said and I hugged her back."Thanks so much, I was really worried. Is Emma ok?" I asked her and she stepped away and looked at me. "The doctor said she'll be fine but it's a coma we're talking about. Who knows how long that'll take". She said and we all kept silent."Do you want to see your son?" James said to break the awkwardness. "Yes, w
