Kaden pressed his back against the hospital wall and slowly sat on the floor looking dejected.
He rested his elbows on his knees while his hands covered his face.
He felt defeated and lost, he didn't know why all of this was suddenly happening to his wife.
Could it be that she was going through danger because of him? He had a lot of enemies and perhaps maybe they were doing this to get their revenge on him.
"What the fuck did you do to my sister?!" he heard a voice say, and immediately knew who it belonged to, Veronica.
"You b*stard!" Veronica knelt next to him, fisted his bloody shirt in her hands and started shaking him violently, " You promised to keep her safe and to protect her but now she's fighting for her life in there all because of you -- you jerk!" She let go of his shirt and repeatedly hit his chest but Kaden didn't fight back, he just lowered his head in guilt and sadness.
"Baby calmed down," Jeremy pried the crazy woman a
"Will you tell me now what's wrong with my wife?" Kaden asked once he, Aiden and Veronica sat in the doctor's office,"Well I have both good news and bad news which one you want to hear first?" The doctor askedKaden and Veronica looked at each other then back at the doctor,"Start with the bad news," he said taking a deep breath and preparing himself."Well the bad news is that your wife is traumatized and getting normal sleep without having nightmares will be very hard for her and worse off is that we can't give her any sleeping pills because they might cause some damage. So the only way to get her out of it is by constantly supporting, comforting and assuring her and doing lots of things that will destruct her mind from all the events she went through."Kaden silently let our a soft sigh of relief, it wasn't as bad as he thought, he was going to be a present husband in her life and make sure he helps her out of the trauma."And the
"Police?" Kaden asked looking at the many police officers that were waiting for them outside the hospital building,"The police? What are they doing here? Did they come for my sister?" Veronica asked looking like she was panicking,"Relax sister in law, they won't take Mel away, she didn't do anything wrong," he assured looking at Mel then at the police officers," Yeah Mel is innocent she doesn't have a single crime bone in her body," Aiden tried to lighten the mood but it was a wrong time,"Good evening Mr Leighton," one of the cops said stepping closer to him,"We just wanted to ask Mrs Leighton a few questions regarding what happened at the residence,""I'm sorry but as you can see, She is sleeping right now, and the doctors advised her plenty of rest due to her condition," Kaden looked at Mel who was soundly sleeping,"Yes sure sir, we will come back tomorrow morning." The officer U-turned and he and his colleagues left the h
Two weeks later.Things were going from bad to worse,The company's sells were now down by hundred percent and all their investors had withdrawn from the company due to the fake news that circulated all over social media about the Leightons being involved with illegal dealings and also stealing other people's business ideas and no one on the market wanted to do business with them.Not only this but for some unknown reason, they found themselves in a lot of debts and their company and house was going to get mortgaged, in short the Leightons were ruined!Kaden sat in his office looking at the many papers In front of him, he didn't know what to do and how to save their family business."There is nothing else we can do bro it's over," Brandon said looking dejected, " we've lost everything!""No we just can't lose like this, I'm sure there is a way we can recover it all," he said looking through the papers again hoping that a miracle would pop up
Melissa sat in the living room with Aiden both of them quietly watching tv even though their minds wasn't in it.It was the day of the Auction, Kaden and Brandon had gone to the company to put everything in order and pack up their things while Aiden stayed back not in the mood to see how they were going to lose their company and go on the streets.Melissa was even more devasted, she was blaming herself for everything because all the problems started happening when she moved in with them.If she never got together with Kaden then maybe their company would still be standing and maybe grandfather wouldn't be on life support right now.While deep in thought, the loud buzzing of her phone grabbed her attention, she looked at the phone and it was a text from an unknown number,Unknown: if you are with people right now, go somewhere private. I want to talk to you.
" The auction will start in the next forty five minutes, it will be wise if we go now," the man Mr Delvin said, his voice laced with excitement."Yeah! I also want to go there as soon as possible so I can get front role seats and see how the Leightons will be humiliated!" The annoying lady said clapping her hands at the end." Good luck Mel, see you in court!" Mandy patted Melissa's head and laughed in a loud harsh way that made Melissa's heart burn with anger and hatred.She clenched her fists in pain and through teary eyes, watched as her enemies Happily and proudly left the house.Once they were gone, she unclenched her fist and lay on the floor crying her eyes out.She felt devasted and hopeless, everything was all over for her, she couldn't even go home now because the way home was already blocked by the police, and with the way her phone was shattered into pieces, she couldn't even call her husband and ask for his help."Why am I so st
Aiden checked on his phone to see the time and it was only two hours left for the auction to start. He sighed tears brimming in his eyes."We will lose it all in just two hours," he said looking at the seat next to him only to find it empty.'Huh, I thought she was sitting right here,'" Mel?" he call but there was no response."Did I zone out for that long that she went upstairs or something?" he asked himself getting off the couch and stretching his limbs.He started by checking the kitchen to see if she was having a snack but she wasn't there," She's probably sleeping, let me not disturb her or else she will lash out on me,"He went back into the living room and sat on the couch fixing his eyes on the TV again until he dozed off.An hour and half later, he woke up checked the time and only thirty minutes was left for the auction.Wanting someone to talk to about the incoming trouble, Aiden decided to go upstairs to c
"You really do love me?" Kaden asked caressing her cheek lovingly."Yes I love you with all my -----" he crushed his lips on hers cutting her off and she in turn kissed him back with her arms wrapped around his neck pulling him closer, both of them drowning in the sweet heartily missed kiss.The last time they kissed and actually had any physical contact was two weeks ago, three days before the incident with Anderson but now that everything was fixed, Melissa was in the mood for something more than just a kiss."I think we should go now, it looks like they won't stop for a while," she heard her father in law's voice followed by a few yeahs and footsteps disappearing." I love you so much," Kaden whispered to her through the kiss and this only made her few even more aroused,She wanted him to touch her everywhere and to bury himself deep inside.She wanted him to pleasure her in the best ways possible and with the dirty thoughts i
Everyone turned their heads towards the source of the voice and Kaden couldn't help but scowl at the man that stood there. It was non other than Mr Templeton, the man who abandoned them when their company started going down. "What is he doing?" Brandon asked anger in his voice, it seems he was just as upset to see the man as Kaden was. " I'm wondering the same thing," Kaden responded looking at the man. "Thank you for your attention, first of all I would like to congratulate my old time friends the Leightons, for standing together as a family and bringing their enemies down," "Friends?" Kaden scoffed, " Since when did this man become our friend? As far as I know, he abandoned us at our toughest moments instead of lending a helping hand, and now that we have gotten everything back, he has now turned into our friend?" He ranted lowly such that only the people around their table could hear. " I know right, I'm pretty sure he was even work
Seven years later "Celeste!" Melissa screamed on top of her voice and the sound of small foot steps were heard running into the living room. "I swear I'm going to kill you little ---" she let the sentence hung and wobbled towards the living room were celeste was sitting on the couch her face hidden in her father's chest. "What did my baby do now?" Kaden asked in amusement while staring at his wife's big baby bump. She was due in just a week. Four years after their wedding, they had twin boys and now she was pregnant again with baby number four. Not only that but six months after the wedding, brandon finally maned up and asked Leah out and two months later she was pregnant with twins boys. Their relationship was on fast forward because the same day he found out she was pregnant he proposed marriage and a month later they were married. Aiden equally found a girl for himself two years ago but their relationship was on off until last year when she fell pregnant although he didn't
"Oh my God I'm so nervous right now!" Melissa said with a nervous laugh as the hair stylist worked on fixing her hair.It has been six months since she got out of the hospital and she and Kaden were finally getting married.The last six months have been nothing but joy and happiness for both Melissa and Kaden even though they had to struggle with Celeste's constant crying every night but luckily Brandon and Leah, her godparents came to the rescue and acted as her baby sitters including Aiden who was still upset that he wasn't one of the godparent even though they assured they would make him one for their next child.In the last six months, Brandon and Leah's relationship has also grown stronger and anyone looking at them could tell they are in love but sadly neither of them wants to make the first move and admit their feelings.Melissa has tried everything she could to urge Leah to tell him but Every
"Hurry up, places everyone. They will be here any minute!" Veronica urged as everyone scrambled around, putting things in order and making sure everything was perfect for the arrival of the new family members.It's been a month and one week since the incident happened and both mother and baby were getting discharged from the hospital.On that fateful day after the doctor came out of the room, he told them that she was in a critical condition due to loss of blood and needed a blood transfusion immediately.Kaden volunteered to give her blood but sadly, it wasn't a match and worse off the blood bank was empty.Everyone went into a fit of panic searching for blood until they found the perfect match who was non other than Leah.She donated her blood in a heart beat and three weeks later, Melissa woke up from a coma.The doctors didn't let her leave even after she
"Ahhh!" Melissa let out a scream of pain holding her stomach, blood covering her hand."Mel!!" Everyone rushed towards her as Hannah who had just been shot by Leah fell on the floor limp with her eyes wide open."My baby!" Melissa whispered in pain.Kaden looked down and blood was covering one side of the bump while the shorts she was wearing rapidly became wet with blood and what looked like water."Oh no she has been shot and is going into labour!" Aiden said in horror and without thinking twice, Kaden picked her up in his arms, running out of the building with his brothers and Leah following while his father and their men stayed back to make sure Hannah was truly dead."Please save my baby, I don't want to lose her," Melissa whispered again.Sweat mixed with tears trickling down her face,She was in a lot of pain to such an exten
"Let me go you stinking animals!" Melissa said to the men while they dragged her into a large and empty hall-looking room that had about four armed guards moving around on high alert. They had already removed the cloth that was on her mouth and the sac on her head. "I swear I'm going to lose my temper and hit this woman! I don't even know why the boss told us to ungag her. Damn, I hate nagging women," one of the guards complained. "Well, I could make it easier for you if you could just let me go! How dare you even kidnap me! Do you even know who I am!" She yelled at them again and all they did was drag her towards the metallic chair that gracefully sat in the middle of the room. They made her sit on the chair and each one of the guards held her arm making sure she wasn't doing anything stupid. "You all will pay for this, I will make sure you regret doing this to me you
Meanwhile"I'm so excited about this!" Hannah said taking the divorce papers from the table. She flipped through them and the widest grin in history spread across her face, " I will just go take these to court and finalize the divorce, see you guys later, and Kaden make sure you treat Angelica right, she's your wife now and deserves all your love and care," she added giving him a small hug and walking out of the house.Kaden let out a sigh and Angelica just awkwardly stood there not knowing whether to stay or leave."And this woman," Aiden looked at her and she lowered her gaze, "just because he signed those divorce papers doesn't mean he will stay with you. As soon as he finds a way to end all of this, I will personally kick you out!" He threatened and Angelica silently looked on." Don't worry Aiden, she already has a man in her life, she's been forced to do this just like me," Kaden explaine
"Then why did they bring you back knowing full well that she was still lurking around?" Kaden softly spoke cupping her face." Because they want to lure her out plus If I didn't come then you wouldn't have know she was the mastermind now, would you?"" I found out she was the mastermind a month ago and I've been secretly trying to find a way to make her pay!"" Wait you know? But Aiden and Brandon --- they told me that---""I didn't tell them about it," he let go of her cheeks and ran his hand in his hair, "I kept it a secret from them because I didn't want Hannah to ease drop on our conversation and know that I know. Listen baby it's dangerous for you and Celeste to be here, please listen to me and leave. She already told me that if you don't do it then she will kill you for real this time," he pleaded."But I don't want to. What if she tries something that will make you f
"No this isn't true, tell me this isn't true Kaden, tell me that you are lying and that I'm the only woman that you love!" Mel said standing in front of him and shaking him lightly."Miss Young please, I don't have any feelings for you okay, I'm in love with someone else who isn't you, so stop daydreaming! I can never love you," he said looking her dead in the eye but Mel could see that he didn't mean it, she wasn't ready to believe what he was saying."Yes miss Young," the lady Angelica said with a warm smile. She held Kaden's arm and lay on his shoulder, "He is all mine now please stop touching my man, I'm very possessive,"Mel felt all the strength leave her body,She stumbled back and Brandon, Aiden and Leah rushed towards her, giving her support.She looked back at Kaden and for a moment she saw fear and worry flash in his eyes but it quickly dissolved."Son wha
"We are waiting Mel, we deserve to know what happened," Aiden coax and Mel let out a soft sigh sitting on the couch,"Okay, I will tell you everything. That day after Tasha finished pouring gasoline on me and she and her workers left, father and Grandfather came.At first, I thought that they were really going to watch me die because that's what they said that I needed to die in order to catch the criminal.I accepted my fate and they drugged me with chloroform to help me get a 'peaceful' painless death. I passed out and when I woke up, I was in the hospital with Leah at the bedside waiting for me to wake up. I was shocked and thought I was in heaven until grandfather and father in-law came and explained everything to me including how Kaden tortured and killed the people who were behind everything.After they explained, I ask both grandpa and father-in-law to let me come back to you guys but he refused because----" she posed for a while taki
