Startled, Liam refocused his attention on the gravity of the situation at hand."Yes... Yes, I'll sign it right away," Liam responded, his voice laden with determination.The doctor approached Liam, holding a stack of papers in his hands. He wore a somber expression, a reflection of the weighty situation they were facing. "Here you go, sir," the doctor said, his voice filled with a mix of professional assurance and empathy. "Everything is 50-50, but we believe they will be fine."Liam took the papers, his brows furrowing as he considered the delicate balance hanging in the balance. Questions about Amelia's lingering feelings for Andrew lingered in his mind, clouding his thoughts with uncertainty. Despite the internal struggle, he nodded in acknowledgment, silently acknowledging the doctor's words.With a steadying breath, Liam picked up the pen and signed the documents.Just as he set the pen down, the operation commenced, the medical team swiftly springing into action. Amelia, un
Her yearning to hold her baby, to ensure her safety, was a powerful testament to a mother's unconditional love.Liam, his own heart heavy with worry, tried to offer comfort amidst the uncertainty. "Call down, babe, please," he pleaded, his voice filled with reassurance. "I'm sure she's in good hands. The doctors will do everything they can."The doctor, maintaining a composed demeanor, addressed Amelia with a calm and reassuring tone. "Calm down, ma'am," he began, "you will still experience some pain once the anesthesia wears off. However, your baby will be fine. She just needs an urgent blood transfusion due to being born premature and anemic."Taking in the doctor's words, Amelia nodded with a mix of relief and concern. She understood the urgency of the situation and the importance of the blood transfusion for her baby's well-being. "Okay, then start the transfusion, please."Without hesitation, the doctor acknowledged Amelia's request. "Immediately, ma'am," he affirmed, swiftly
Amelia's whole body trembled as the weight of the situation pressed upon her. The realization that she had to reach out to Andrew Reynolds, the man she had run and hidden from for seven long months, sent waves of anxiety coursing through her veins. How could she now rely on him to save their baby's life? It felt like a cruel twist of fate, a convergence of circumstances that she could never have foreseen.Liam, standing beside the doctor, felt a mix of confusion and fear as he witnessed the magnitude of the situation unfold before him. His mind raced with questions and doubts, unsure of what this meant for their budding relationship. Would Amelia go back to Andrew now? Was he just a temporary presence in her life?In a moment of desperation, Liam turned to the doctor, searching for any alternative that could buy them more time. "My sister," he blurted out, his voice tinged with a glimmer of hope. Na.... Natalie, we could test her too, couldn't we?"The doctor sighed, his expression
The doctor's gaze softened as he regarded Amelia, concern etched on his features. "Do you have this number with you, ma'am?"Amelia hesitated, her mind racing to find a solution. She knew she didn't have Andrew's number readily available, but she had an idea of how to obtain it. "Uhm... I know how to get it," she replied, The doctor nodded understandingly. "Okay, when you're ready, just let me know immediately. Time is of the essence."Amelia nodded gratefully, "Thank you, doctor," she murmured, her voice tinged with a mix of gratitude and apprehension.With a kind smile, the doctor excused himself, leaving Amelia and Liam alone in the room. Liam's gaze met Amelia's, concern etched in his eyes."You don't have the number?" he asked softly, his voice filled with worry.Amelia shook her head, a touch of uncertainty crossing her features. "No, but I know how to get it. I need your phone, please," she replied, her voice steady despite the nervous flutter in her chest.Liam nodded under
Andrew sat in his car, the engine humming softly as he prepared to make a quick stop at the office to retrieve some important documents. With his mind preoccupied, he barely noticed the vibrations of his phone, indicating an incoming call. Glancing at the caller's ID displaying an unknown number, he made the split-second decision not to answer, assuming it was another telemarketing call or an irrelevant interruption.Meanwhile, in the hospital room, Amelia's nerves grew taut with each passing moment. She had been waiting anxiously for Andrew to answer, her heart pounding in her chest. "He hung up," the doctor informed Amelia, her voice filled with sympathy."No, no, no," Amelia murmured, her voice trembling with a mix of desperation and hope. "Please try again, doctor."Taking a deep breath, the doctor dialed Andrew's number once more. In his car, Andrew glanced at the caller ID once again, irritation flickering across his face. "Who the hell is this?" he muttered to himself, his
Liam reached out, gently taking hold of Amelia's hands, his touch providing a sense of grounding amidst the chaos. His concern etched into his features, he searched her eyes for a flicker of truth. "Are you sure, Amelia?" he pressed, his voice filled with genuine worry.Amelia mustered a small smile, an attempt to appease Liam's concern, as she nodded faintly. Andrew stepped out of his car, his tall frame adorned in a pristine white silk shirt that exuded an air of confidence. With a quick adjustment, he ensured every detail was in place, reflecting his meticulous nature. The unfamiliar surroundings of the city caught his attention, a departure from his usual haunts. Tony spoke up from behind the wheel. "Should I come with you, boss?" Tony inquired, his eyes fixed on Andrew through the rearview mirror.Andrew glanced back at Tony, his voice firm yet dismissive. "It's fine," he replied, conveying his preference to handle the situation on his own. Adjusting his sunglasses, he stepp
Andrew froze in his tracks, his mind struggling to comprehend Amelia's statement. Confusion and disbelief clouded his features. The child couldn't possibly be his. He turned back to face her, his voice laced with disdain. "You're still on this?" he sneered. "Why pin your child on me, huh? What do you want? Money?" His accusations hung heavily in the air, his distrust palpable.Liam, standing by Amelia's side, couldn't contain his own frustration. He looked at Andrew, his voice firm and resolute. "She has me. She doesn't need your money!"Amelia took a deep breath, steeling herself for the difficult conversation that lay ahead. She looked directly at Andrew, her eyes reflecting a mix of pain and determination. "If I had another option, I wouldn't have reached out to you, Andrew Reynolds," she spoke, her voice steady. The weight of their shared past, the choices that had been forced upon her, bore heavily upon her shoulders. "But I never lied," she continued. "I didn't think I'd eve
Liam hesitated for a moment, gathering his thoughts. Finally, he responded, "Her baby's father is here. Andrew Reynolds."Natalie's eyes widened in astonishment. "Wait... you mean Andrew Reynolds? The Reynolds Billionaire?" she asked, her voice filled with surprise. Liam nodded, his expression grave. "Yes, he's her husband," he confirmed, the weight of the situation evident in his demeanor."Are you worried that she'll go back to him?" Natalie asked, her eyes searching Liam's face for any hint of his thoughts and fears. Liam, feeling overwhelmed, looked into Natalie's eyes but couldn't find the words to respond. Instead, he slumped into the seat with a heavy sigh. He was indeed worried about the possibility of Amelia returning back to Andrew.Meanwhile, Andrew had completed the DNA test and was anxiously awaiting the results in the doctor's office. He sat there with a composed demeanor, confident that the child couldn't possibly be his since he believed himself to be infertile. He
Amelia stood there, tears of joy streaming down her face, listening to Andrew's words of love and reminiscences of their past. Andrew said, "the first time I asked you to be my wife, it was arranged, you never wanted to. You agreed because you had no choice. I only granted you the divorce because I wanted to start afresh with you."She couldn't help but laugh at his playful remark about the first proposal. "Or you had no choice either," she jokingly replied, sharing a lighthearted moment with him.With a smile, Andrew continued, expressing his true feelings, "Now I'm asking you again, out of your will. Amelia Tate, can you do me the honors of becoming my wife?" Overwhelmed with happiness, Amelia screamed, "Yes, yes, yes!!!" The excitement spread through everyone present as they joined in the joyous moment.In a rush of emotions, Amelia ran to hug Andrew, and amidst the laughter, Perry playfully yelled, "Collect the ring first!" The laughter continued as Andrew gently slipped the
With a heart full of happiness and anticipation, Andrew walked down the stairs of his home, feeling a world of difference from the past few months. Everything was now beautiful and filled with joy and love. Today was a special day as he was going to pick up Amelia from the hospital after her remarkable recovery from the coma.Tony approached him to inform him that the car was ready. He said, "The car is ready, boss."But Andrew declined, wanting to savor every moment of the day. "Nah... I'll drive myself," he replied with a smile.Tony said, "are you sure boss?""Nah… I'm fine, hand me the keys." Andrew said as he stretched his hands towards Tony to collect his keys.Tony walked towards him and handed him the keys to the Rolls Royce Phantom, and Andrew hopped in, ready to go pick up his beloved Amelia.The drive to the hospital was filled with excitement and eagerness. Andrew couldn't wait to see Amelia's reaction to the grand surprise he had prepared for her at home. As he arrived
The doctor stammered, realizing the gravity of his poorly phrased suggestion. "No... no, that's not what I meant," he attempted to clarify.Andrew stepped closer to the doctor, his eyes piercing through him. "Are you going to tell me how to spend my money?" he demanded.The doctor quickly backtracked, "No sir, it was just a suggestion from a professional."But Andrew was not swayed. He fiercely responded, "Keep your profession to yourself! We're not taking her off any life support! We're not depriving her of her rights to fight! Understood?"The doctor nodded, humbled by Andrew's words, "Yes, sir."Andrew left his office and slammed the door behind him.Leaving the doctor's office, Andrew returned to Amelia's room, his emotions still raw. Mrs. Tate noticed his changed mood and approached him, concerned. "How is Amelia? What did the doctor say?"Andrew took a deep breath, trying to compose himself. "It's nothing serious," he reassured Mrs. Tate, not wanting to worry her further.But M
Andrew carefully came down the stairs, holding Violet in his arms. His daughter had grown bigger, and she now had curly brown hair, which bounced with each moment, a beautiful resemblance to her mother, Amelia. Nanny Grace approached them, holding Violet's little bag and other items Amelia used to cherish."Thanks, Nana," Andrew said with genuine gratitude. "What about Amelia's hairbrush and perfumes?"Nanny Grace smiled warmly. "I've packed them inside, just as you requested.""Thanks," Andrew replied, relieved that everything was in order. He made his way towards the front door, Violet snuggled safely in his arms. But before he could reach the car, Nanny Grace's voice called him back."Uhm... Andrew," she hesitated, concern etched on her face.Andrew turned back to face her, his eyes filled with curiosity. "What is it, Nana?"Nanny Grace took a deep breath, her voice gentle but filled with worry. "Any news on Alexander?"Andrew's expression tightened, a mix of frustration and pain
Nanny Grace's sobs echoed through the air as she cradled Violet in her trembling arms. Tears streamed down her face, and her voice cracked with anguish as she cried out."Alexander, noooo!" Her legs gave way beneath her, and she collapsed to the ground, clutching Violet tightly.One of the cops quickly shouted, "Call in the divers!" The police were already taking action to search for Alexander's body in the water below the bridge.Andrew rushed to Nanny Grace and Violet, his own heart torn apart by the events unfolding before him. He knelt down beside them and wrapped his arms around them both.Nanny Grace, her voice choked with grief, managed to speak through her tears, "Wh...what of Amelia? What happened? Where is she? How did it happen?" Her voice trembled with a desperate hope for answers.Andrew's heart felt as though it had been torn into a million pieces. He struggled to find the words, his voice barely above a whisper. "I...I really don't know. Stone called, and..." Just as
Nanny Grace pleaded with him, her heart breaking at the sight of a man she had once loved like a son, now consumed by rage and despair. "No, no, no, don't harm the innocent baby, Alexander. She has nothing to do with this. Just turn yourself in."Alexander, struggling with his emotions, replied bitterly, "Then what do I get in return? Spend the rest of my life in jail? It's better we all die here!!"Nanny Grace's eyes filled with tears as she realized the extent of Alexander's desperation. She knew she had to reach him, to show him that there was another way out of this dark path he had chosen."Then you'll have to kill me first, Alexander, because I'm getting the baby out of the car," Nanny Grace declared resolutely. She was willing to put her life on the line to protect Violet.Alexander's hands trembled as he held the gun. He couldn't bear the thought of hurting Nanny Grace, no matter how deep his pain ran.Nanny Grace slowly approached him, step by step, keeping her gaze locked
The other police officers rushed to the corridor where Detective Stone was, following his urgent call for an ambulance. As they saw Amelia's lifeless body lying on the ground, one of them recognized her and exclaimed, "Isn't this Mr. Reynolds' wife? Is she dead?"Detective Stone walked over to Amelia's body, he knelt down beside her, gently placing his hands on her neck to check her pulse. His expression grew more grave as he felt her faint heartbeat. "Her pulse is very low, quickly call the ambulance!!!" he urgently instructed one of the officers.The officer quickly made the call, relaying the critical situation to the emergency services. "They're on their way," he responded to Detective Stone.Meanwhile, Detective Stone's phone rang, and he took it out to answer. It was Andrew on the other end. Before he could say anything, Andrew's voice came through, stammering with worry. "I... I can't find Amelia! Ch... check the warehouse for her! Have you seen her?!" Andrew desperately sa
One of the henchmen hesitated, looking back at Amelia lying unconscious on the floor. "What about her? Are we leaving her here?!" he questioned, showing a flicker of concern."We don't have time!! Go bring the baby!!!" Alexander snapped, prioritizing their escape over everything else. Leaving Amelia behind was the only option he saw to ensure their escape.They rushed upstairs to where Violet was sleeping, and Alexander's henchman quickly grabbed her, carrying her in his arms as they hurriedly left the warehouse.Amelia remained motionless on the floor.Outside, the police sirens grew louder, signaling that the authorities were closing in. Alexander's heart pounded with fear as he led his men to a getaway vehicle, hoping to escape in time.One of his men said, "But what about the money?!"Alexander's eyes flashed with anger and frustration. "Do you want to go to jail?!" he snapped back. "Andrew would do anything for his daughter!!! Let's move!!!" he ordered.Their priorities were cle
Amelia continued to stammer, her voice trembling, "I swear, I don't have it. You took it with you."Meanwhile, Andrew and Detective Stone were hard at work, tracing the call from Alexander's phone. The tension in the room was thick as all their attention was at tracing the call, knowing that every second counted in finding Amelia and Violet.Detective Stone's face lit up with relief and excitement. "We've gotten it, sir! They are in an underground warehouse downtown," he announced.Andrew's heart raced with a mix of hope and fear. "What are you waiting for, let's hurry!" he commanded.With the location finally pinpointed, Andrew and Detective Stone wasted no time. They rushed out of the study, making their way as quickly as possible to the underground warehouse where Amelia and Violet were being held captive.The room was filled with tension as Alexander, consumed by rage, cornered Amelia, demanding to know the whereabouts of his phone. He grabbed Amelia by the arm as he shook her
