Five seconds later, his phone blew up again, so once more he let it go to his secretary. But then his cell phone started to ring. He checked it and saw that it was Katherine. He pushed his work aside and with a smile, he answered. "Good morning, my love. How are you?" He asked, but Kat's heavy breathing told him something was wrong. "Katherine, are you OK? Did something happen to the twins?" He stood up, waiting for her to answer. "The kids are fine, Aiden, but I'm not," she answered, her voice cracking at the end. "Why? What's wrong baby?""Have you seen the papers this morning, Aiden? There's a photo of us on the front page kissing, and now my business place is crawling with paparazzi.

Aiden saw that Patrick was sweating like a whore in church. He was nervous, and he had all right to be. He even had the nerve to ask if they knew who was embezzling money. Yes, they know who it is, it's you, Aiden said internally. "Something like that," Aiden responded as he took a seat behind his desk. Patrick stared at him, a bit confused. "What do you mean, something like that? He sounded flustered as he said, “It's either they did or they didn't.”Aiden disregarded the question and followed up with one of his own."Patrick what am I to you?" Patrick observed Aiden with a sense of bewilderment. “What do you mean?" "It's a pretty straightforward question Pat, What am I to you?" Patrick began to consider the question, exploring various ways to respond. "Well," he began. " You're one of my best friends. In fact, you're like a brother to me, even though we don't see eye to eye sometimes. But that's how families are, right?" "So you see me as your family?" He asked as he began punc

During the weeks that followed, Katherine became more understanding and was by Aiden's side every chance she got. He was angry at himself about the situation, but Katherine's presence and words of encouragement made it bearable. Kat's mother and father were also supportive.

Katherine was awakened by the scent of smelling salt and cleaning agent. She knew she was in her Café, but her head felt dizzy, and her thoughts were scrambled. "Kat, can you hear me?" Taryn's voice echoed in Kat's ear. and everything came back to her memory. Her mind was no longer dazed and confused by the atomic-bomb-like-news she had gotten from Violet. In the back of her mind, she wondered if Violet was telling the truth or if she was lying because she was hurt because Aiden turned her down. "Kat?" Taryn called out loudly, making Katherine's ear ring. "How many fingers am I holding up?" She asked, waving three fingers in Kat's vision. "Three, and I don't think you should be waving them if you want me to see them clearly," Kat stated as she tried rising to her feet. Taryn helped her up and placed her in a chair to sit. "What the hell happened? Please don't tell me you used too much bleach and disinfectant, and it knocked you out," she said. "No it's not that," Katherine en

The ladies entered the living room, and the smell of pizza invaded their nostrils. They were impressed when they saw how well the men had set up for the evening. "Wow, this looks really good," Katherine stated as she walked up to Aiden. "Thanks, Dustin and I tried." He then placed a small kiss on her lips. "Good job, both of you," Taryn responded as she kissed Dustin. Dustin then whispered something in her ear. "So are you two ready for a fun night?" Aiden asked. "Yes, but we need to freshen up first," Kat said as she took Taryn's hand. "Give me a minute, Kat," Taryn began. "Dustin wants to talk." "Okay, I'll be upstairs," Kat nodded. "I'll go check on the pizza," Aiden said. "Okay see you in a few," Kat kissed Aiden before heading upstairs. Taryn and Dustin were now alone in the living room. "I have news for you," Dustin exclaimed with wide eyes. "News? Is it good or bad?" "Baby, I'm not even sure what to call it, but it's big.""I don't think it's bigger than the news I

Katherine had been feeling distant from her kids since her engagement. Although the twins had packed schedules with school and after-school activities, and Kat was tied up with her job, she hardly ever got to enjoy evenings with them anymore. She was grateful to have Miss Polly by her side. Katherine decided she was going to spend an entire weekend with her children, especially since she and Aiden would be getting married, and she didn't want the twins to feel as if they were no longer the centre of her world. Aiden suggested that she take them to Lake Anna for the weekend and Katherine agreed. She packed up the car beforehand so that when the day came she didn't have much to do. So when Friday arrived, she intended to leave work early so that they could reach the lake before nightfall. "I can't wait to show the kids where Aiden spent most of his childhood," Kat confessed to Taryn, who was going to run the Café for the weekend. "They will definitely enjoy it there. Dustin sh

It was now Sunday evening, and Katherine and the kids got back from Lake Anna an hour ago. They came home to the surprise of a well-prepared dinner spread made by Aiden, who was beaming with joy as he greeted them at the kitchen door. They praised Aiden for his efforts and thoughtfulness as he ushered them to their seats. "How was your weekend ?" Aiden asked the children as they sat down. "It was amazing," the twins said in unison. "We had the best time on the lake," Nate began. "We went lake gliding." "Bird watching," Nola added. "Lake diving." "Yeah, and we went out on a glass-bottom boat and saw so many fish," Nola added. "That must've been amazing," Aiden gasped. "It was." "I even caught a harpon," Nate raved. "Harpon?" Aiden asked curiously. "It's called a Tarpon Nate," Katherine corrected. "Yeah, I wanted to cook and eat it, but Nola got sad, so I threw it back." "You're a wonderful and considerate brother Nate," Aiden said, smiling at him.

Even though Aiden was tired as hell, he couldn't fall asleep. He watched as Nate looked through the window, admiring the scenery as they ascended high into the sky. "What's on your mind?" Aiden asked Nate as his gaze fell from a comic book that he was reading. "Oh, nothing," Nate answered. "Are you sure, sweetie?" Katherine asked when she noticed how sad his face looked. "Well, I was just wondering what my sister is doing," he said calmly. "Maybe sleeping," Kat said after checking the time. "It's still pretty early in the morning." "Oh, you’re probably right," Nate said quietly. "Yes, but I'm sure she will be thrilled to see you," Kat reassured. "I think so too," Aiden added. "In fact, ever

Violet's entire body was in pain when she came to. She found herself disoriented and upsided down, still in the vehicle and still clutching the case with the money.

She only had minor bruises on her face and arms.Soon Dustin and another officer walked onto the scene. As they were about to arrest and escort her to the police car, she made one last attempt to escape, but Dustin held his foot out, which caused her to trip and fall to the ground. The case flung open, causing the money to spill onto the ground. "Bastard!" she yelled from the ground as she tried to scoop up the dollar bills that were twirling around in the wind.

"I'm a bit cold," Nate said, trembling. "I'll grab one of the blankets from the car," Officer Smith said. "Grab two," Katherine ordered when she saw Aiden and Dustin walking towards them.

The flight from West Virginia to Jamaica was almost six hours. When they landed in St. Mary, Aiden had already arranged for them to be picked up and taken to the nearest resort, which was fifteen minutes away from the airport. Aiden informed everybody that Violet was staying in a nearby town called Port Maria. They got to the resort and settled in, collecting their bearing and going over their plan a few more times. Even though Aiden encouraged her to get some rest, Katherine stayed up and made some spaghetti and meatballs for everyone to eat. "Katherine sweetheart, I really wish you would get some rest," Aiden pleaded as he stirred a pot of sauce, which he was ordered to do. "I'm almost done here, and besides, this is what's keeping me sane. This is my therapy," she told him. "I understand how you're feeling, my love," Aiden began as he placed a kiss on her cheek. “This will all be over soon. I already have everything set in motion."

Aiden was already working on accumulating the ransom for Nathan. He made various phone calls, while Dustin and the officers packed up their equipments. "Aiden, what are you up to?" Dustin asked as he joined him in the kitchen. Aiden was still busy with his phone in his hand typing away."I'm working on getting my son back," he simply answered with his attention still set on his phone."Aiden, I know you and I saw that look in your eyes. Please let us do our jobs."He took his attention from his phone, and was now looking at Dustin in disbelief. "Out of all the persons, you're gonna say this to me?" He questioned Dustin. “Dustin, I know how the system works, and I'll be damned if I sit on my ass and wait for them to get shit done," he made clear."I hear you, but there's a protocol that we have to follow.""Screw protocol. I'm not wasting another minute," he stated. "So what do you want me to do?" "I want you to be my friend," he simply said. "You know how much Katherine and the k

"So that I can see that Nate is doing well." "He is. He's just taking a nap. The plane ride was tiring for him." "Where are you Violet?" Aiden questioned. "You'll find out soon enough. First, let's get down to business.""What business?"
THE HUSBAND TRAP 74: Hello Aiden
Dustin and Liam got lucky while following some leads. They called Katherine and Aiden and told them that the SUV was spotted about five miles from the highway, so they were to meet him there. Aiden knew how stressful the situation was, and he did not want to make matters worse for Kat, so he tried to convince her not to come with him."Sweetheart I can't imagine what you're going through, but I think it's best you stay put until I find out what is going on.""Aiden, you know I can't do that. I have to make sure that my baby is safe," she said as she took up a water bottle. "I know you might be feeling helpless not knowing where Nate is. Trust me I feel the same way, but you stressing out is not good for your condition.""My condition?""You know, being that you're pregnant and all. I wouldn't want anything to happen to you or to the babies.""Nothing is gonna happen Aiden, I'll be fine," she reassured him."I just want to make sure," he said softly.

An hour later, Katherine was at the school. She had called Aiden to tell him what was going on. He was on his way home. She also called Dustin and he and two other officers met her at the school. She tried her best to remain calm as she spoke to Nate's coach, along with the principal, and two security guards. "How could you guys let this happen?" Katherine fumed."Let what happen Mrs. Windsor? Ms. O'Hare comes to visit them all the time. Isn't she their aunt?" the principal questioned."Yes, she's their aunt, but she has no right to visit them, let alone pick them up from school. She's mentally unstable." Katherine gave out. "Oh my," the coach exclaimed in shock."Mrs. Windsor, we did not know. We are truly sorry," the principal apologized. "You will be sorry, she wasn't even listed on their emergency contact. Why would you let her take him?” Katherine sobbed the last part."Do you have any security cameras around here?" Dustin asked, trying to defuse the situation. "Yes, we have
