For the first time ever, an excited Arnold served his employer breakfast in bed. Not just him, even Lucy, Alejandro the cook and all the other domestic staff had been a bit worried when the very friendly, cheerful mistress of the house failed to appear in the kitchen even after ten in the morning. Life at the mansion hadn't been the same the other time when she left and so they didn't want her to leave once again. So when Maxwell called Arnold via phone around eleven thirty am, asking him to bring breakfast for two at the master bedroom, the worrisome looks on their faces were instantly replaced with happy ones. They exchanged excited looks with one another before letting out whoops of delight. They needed no fortune teller to tell them that it had finally happened. Their master had finally lured his wife to his bed! They might be mere servants but they had eyes and ears and were quite aware of what was going on between their master and mistress. And since they liked them both, they
The next few weeks that followed Maxwell's eventful birthday were like a honeymoon phase for the couple. They are always glued together whenever Maxwell is at home, kissing, making out, smooching and making love at any time of the day and at any place they find themselves. Be it in one of the many bedrooms of the mansion, living room, bathroom, kitchen, under the shower, in the Jacuzzi, garden— just any where they find themselves but their most favorite place for love making is the same swimming pool where they had shared their very first kiss.Having sex underwater had its own great appeal and that, coupled with the fact that the indoor swimming pool was the place where they shared their memorable first kiss, made it their go-to place for sex. But that's only when they are able to make it to the pool. Most times, they just end up getting it on wherever they are. They are just like two wild animals in heat as they find it so hard to keep their hands off each other.They had long sinc
Around one pm in the afternoon, Angelina received Maxwell's call, informing her that Janette was behind bars once again. And this time around, she'd definitely undergo a trial and be penalized accordingly because the incriminating evidence his guy found is enough to put the final nail on the coffin.To say Angelina was stunned is an understatement. Up till now, after spending almost a year as a billionaire CEO's wife, she still gets amazed over the wonders and magic money and power can perform. How could he have achieved the feat of returning her behind bars within just a few hours of getting out of it? At this rate, maybe she hadn't even been afforded the chance to reach her home before she was handcuffed once again! Oh the wonders of power, money and connections!!Once she and Alejandro finished preparing lunch, Angelina quickly took a bath, making sure to use a generous amount of the vanilla scented bathing gel which she noticed that Maxwell loved on her skin a lot. After applying
Maxwell growled and gripped his naked cock tightly with both hands as he felt it hardening and throbbing once again. Pointing it towards Angelina, he exclaimed in a raspy, hoarse voice. "God! Do you see what you do to me, Angie? Do you have any idea what you do to me? What you just did to me… and seeing you in my shirt— especially this sexy black silk one and this g-string…God! You have no inkling of just what you do to me, my angel. You can't even imagine it!"Emboldened by his words, Angelina hooked her arms around his neck, giving him a clear view of her partially exposed boobs which he so much loved. "Why don't you show me then?"Maxwell didn't need a second invitation. He abruptly pounced on her, kissing her passionately while gripping her butt and pulling her legs up against him, until they were firmly wrapped around his waist and his erect dick was directly poking into her g-string-covered pussy. Manoeuvring their joined bodies, he turned around until Angelina's back w
Angelina couldn't pinpoint the reason but immediately she heard what he said, she instantly became gloomy and her body felt very weak all of a sudden.What was happening to her? Why does she feel so gloomy and sad just because he announced that he's finally ready to go ahead with Isabella's burial? It's the right thing to do! This is a very good development and she should be rejoicing to hear about it! So why is she feeling sad? Why does she feel so bereft?But as she asked herself that question, a thought came to her mind. Isabella's funeral was what she had been waiting for all this while. In order to fulfill Isabella's last wish of being there for Maxwell when he needed her, she had planned to stay just until after the funeral. Because after that, he won't be needing her anymore. So after the funeral, they would both be free to move on with their lives separately.And she had known all these from the onset. That had been the plan ever since she decided to honor Isabella's last wish
Maxwell froze and in an instant, Angelina got a glimpse of the old Maxwell—- the cold, frosty and aloof Maxwell she knows all too well. With a stoic expression on his face, he abruptly pulled out his hand from the Duke's and without giving the couple a second look, he hastily turned around and started storming away in the opposite direction, pulling a reluctant Angelina along with him.But Dorothy Gallagher was determined. Forgetting all about decorum, she pulled her designer black dress up and ran as fast as her legs could carry her and didn't stop until she was standing right in front of Maxwell, effectively blocking his path. Then panting and heaving, she used both of her hands to grip one of his forearms tightly before speaking in an anxious tone, "Please son, just spare us a minute, will you? We're just here to offer our condolences to you. So please give us a chance, chico. Please!"Hearing her call him by the nickname given to him by the woman who had been his mother in t
It was just as if that was what Maxwell's parents had been desperately waiting for— a slight chance, a leeway to try and warm their way back into their only son's life. Because as soon as they got the chance, they gave it their all, sparing no effort in trying to make amends. Right from that eventful day of the funeral, there's no day that will pass by without either both of them, or Dorothy alone if Thomas happens to be too busy, coming to the M.J mansion and spending time with both Maxwell and Angelina. They usually come in the evenings when Maxwell had returned home from work.At first, all their conversations are usually dominated by Angelina and Thomas who had instantly clicked, being birds of the same feather. Just like Angelina, Thomas is also a very friendly, jovial and easygoing person. Another added bonus is that they had so much in common and so conversation flowed freely and easily between the two, with lots and lots of laughter in between while Maxwell and Dorothy only
Angelina and Maxwell were just about to board the latter's private jet when his best friend came bounding towards them with a box of Domino's Pizza in his hands. Panting and heaving as if he had run all the way to the airport, he thrusted the box into Maxwell's hands, making him to give him a quizzical look. But Ethan's eyes were on Angelina instead. "Hi Americano! Traveling and leaving me behind this time around, right? Is that a way to treat your own brother?"Angelina, who was standing right on the middle step of the air stairs turned around and gave him a huge grin. "Nope! Not at all! Forgive my mistake, bro. But thankfully, you're right on time! Come on in and let's go paint the whole of Croatia red!"Seeing Maxwell's reaction to Angelina's words, Ethan grinned surreptitiously. He loves pulling his friend's legs so he played along. "Sure! Not just red, but green, blue, yellow and all other colors of the world!"Just as expected, Maxwell sent him an icy glare, making
Six months later… In the just concluded bakery section of the state of the art buildings of Isabella Gallagher Memorial Foundation, a heavily pregnant Angelina waddled around, inspecting the ultramodern baking equipments. Even though Lucy had volunteered to be the caretaker of the London-based foundation center, from time to time, Angelina goes there to inspect things, especially when a new project has been completed or when some newly- bought equipments have arrived. That's not because she didn't trust Lucy's capability of handling things superbly. No, far from it. She knows she's quite capable and just goes there to make sure things are running smoothly. After all, the foundation is her pet project and her lifelong dream and she loves it just like her own baby! So far, apart from the basic infrastructures that had already been established in both the American and London-based foundation centers, a culinary school, sewing and knitting center, sports arena, arts school for painting
Over the moon with joy, Maxwell hastily slipped the ring unto her finger and as he got up to seal it with a kiss, Angelina's hand suddenly appeared in front of his lips and pushed them away from hers. "Not so fast, lover boy! We have a score to settle first."Maxwell's eyes instantly widened in trepidation. What score do they have to settle? He thought they have already crossed that bridge earlier. He thought she had already forgiven him! But before he could voice out his fears, Angelina's melodic voice reached his ears. "You came here, wowed me with your mind-blowing confession, went ahead to steal my breath away by telling me I'm the one for you, your peace of mind, your bane of existence, your home, your soulmate and so many other mind-blowing things before going down on one knee and proposing to me. You did all that, without even giving me any chance to state my own feelings. Oh I forgot, I don't suppose to have any feelings. After all, 'you know I don't share your feel
Maxwell couldn't believe what he was seeing and hearing. And he knows for sure that he isn't dreaming so could this mean…He looked towards Ethan who was standing behind Angelina for confirmation and just as he nodded his head to confirm that indeed she has regained her memories, Angelina's voice rent the air once again. "Pfft! Can you believe this, bro? I thought that your friend would be a little more excited about seeing me but it seems…"Angelina never got to finish saying what she intended to as she suddenly felt her body engulfed in a very tight hug against a warm, tall, hard and familiar body. In a flash, her own hands automatically wrapped themselves around the tall, imposing figure. At the same time, her eyes fluttered close on their own accord. Their joined bodies reverberated as in unison, both she and Maxwell released very huge, deeply felt sighs of relief. Home, at last! At long, long last they are finally where they rightfully belonged; in the most blissful home ev
Ethan and Robert had just finished having an early dinner together and were on their way to the airport when the former received a call. Upon checking the caller id on the screen, a frown materialized on his face. But that notwithstanding, he swiped and answered the call. "What's up Dr. I-know-it-all? Have you perhaps forgotten your stethoscope with me? Or is it your brain?"From the other end, Dr. Nick sighed. "Look, Mr. Marlowe, I haven't called you for another round of bickering. We need to talk. Urgently. Where are you now? Since you're answering your calls I can tell that you haven't boarded the plane yet, so where can I meet you?"It was Ethan's turn to frown as he instantly became alert. "What's the matter? What happened? How is Angie? Don't tell me anything happened to her! M.J would kill you if anything happens to even a single hair on her head!"Dr. Nick huffed. "Relax, dude. Jolie is perfectly fine. Well, I guess she'll be if only you keep quiet, listen t
Dr. Nick clamped his eyes shut as out of nowhere, sudden pain, sadness and gloom overcame him. How could he have been so blinded? How could he have let his feelings cloud his rational thinking? He had fallen for a woman who is way beyond his reach! He knew right from the onset that she belonged to someone else, that she was someone else's wife but he still let his guard down such that his hidden and long-suppressed feelings for her gradually resurfaced!And now, she is pregnant. What cruel game is this that fate is playing with them all? Here he is, deeply and passionately in love with his childhood buddy but he can neither express it nor even think of acting on it because she's carrying the baby of another man. Another man whom she has absolutely no memories of at all– the man she believes is nobody but a complete stranger to her! God! What kind of mess is this?!What is he supposed to do now? How is he going to break the news of her pregnancy to her when she doesn't even remember h
Angelina grinned widely at him. "Of course! You're my best friend so of course you can't just like me! And you know the feeling is mutual too, right? You're the bestest best friend in the whole wide world and so I love you too!"Once again, Dr. Nick gave her that strange, intense look and cleared his throat. "Erm…Jolie, I have something that I want to tell…"Just then, the shrill sound of his phone interrupted him and as he looked down at the caller id, his entire demeanor instantly changed. Without answering the call, he abruptly got up from his seat while saying to Angelina, "Shit! I completely forgot that I'm supposed to meet someone by two pm today and it's already a quarter to two now."Perplexed at his reaction to the call, Angelina, who had also seen the caller id before he silenced the phone, frowned up at him in confusion. "Who is this Mr. Blondie whose mere call has gotten you so worked up like this? You don't even behave this way when the hospital medical
Maxwell stood in front of the large painting of Angelina and himself in his exquisitely furnished living room, slowly tracing the outline of his wife's gorgeous face with misty eyes and a forlorn and wistful expression on his face.All of a sudden, he felt a hand on his shoulder and even before her gentle, soothing voice rent the air, he knew it was his mother. "You know that staring at her picture will not magically conjure her up, right? Why are you doing this to yourself, son? When will you stop punishing yourself? It's been almost two months now since we left Croatia. Since you left your wife with a complete stranger! All you do is keep sending money, stuffs and either Ethan or Robert to go check on her while you remain here torturing yourself with depressing thoughts. Just take a look at yourself. You haven't just lost a lot of weight but also look so haggard! Arnold told me that once I'm not here, you don't eat at all and hardly sleep at night. And now you're standing here
When Dr. Nick had given Angelina the two gadgets that Maxwell sent over for her, she had only accepted the laptop and refused to accept the phone, claiming that she had no use for it since she had no one to communicate with.Even though that's what she claimed, the real reason is because she doesn't want any reminder of her past life at the moment, the past life that she has no memories of as at present. She knows that once she has a phone, someone connected to her forgotten past might call her and that will inevitably push back those depressing thoughts which she had shoved away to the forefront and hence, make her sad and gloomy. And that's the last thing she wanted at the moment. All she wants is to pretend as if all is well, to live in the moment, to be happy and keep having great fun with her best friend. Therefore, she surely doesn't want a phone as of now! If her memories return in the future, then she'd surely require a phone. But as of now, she had no need for it!When Dr. Ni
Dr. Nick didn't get a chance to return to his office until much later in the evening when he had rounded up all he had to do for the meantime. And after having one look at his tired face, Angelina abruptly got up, took the lunch basket in her left hand before holding Dr. Nick's hand with the right one. "You're coming home with me right this second, Dr. Lifesaver!"However, instead of letting her to pull him along with her like she intended to, Dr. Nick stayed put in his place while shaking his head and saying, "No Jolie. I can't leave now. I just performed surgeries on two of my patients and I have to be there when they eventually come to. I need to assess them and…" "Oh no, Dr. Lifesaver, you have already done your part. There are other doctors who can do whatever needs to be done. Besides, you look so tired and dead on your feet and as far as I know, you can only save lives when you yourself are alive and well! So like I said earlier, you are coming home with me now
