A gasp left Claire’s lips. Her eyes rounded at her mother and her mouth dropped to the floor. “M-mom, what does this mean?” She asked, her eyes falling on the cheques on the table. Katherine sighed deeply, feeling ashamed of herself. “I was there at the Ford Corporation when that lady, Jessica Hart, humiliated you and threw cheques in your face. It was from there that I followed you home after I picked up the cheques you had rejected.” Claire felt like she had been slapped in the face. Her cheeks turned red from embarrassment and she could no longer look at Oliver. If those cheques were picked up, did he believe the stories that said she had blackmailed Jessica for money before leaving?Oliver glanced at Claire and seemed to know what she was thinking. He let out a sigh and stated, “I know you didn’t take the cheques, Claire. I had watched the footage and knew Jessica had framed you… I also saw your mother picking them up but I didn’t know she was your mother at that time.”“Mom,

“That was… intense,” Oliver said as he drove Claire to his penthouse. They had just dropped off Katherine at Claire’s apartment and after Oliver chatted with Thalia for a while, they left to spend the night together. “Yes, it was. I never knew I was left by your family's side on purpose. My parents probably celebrated when we fell in love and started dating,” Claire remarked. She had forgiven her mother but it would take a while to forget. Oliver reached for Claire’s hand and squeezed it. He steered the car with one hand as he said in a gentle voice, “Hey, it’s all in the past. I don’t regret being your best friend or falling in love with you. Our love gave us a lovely daughter and both of you are my world. I'm actually glad you were by my side” Claire smiled, thinking she needed to apologise for deceiving him. She waited until they arrived at the penthouse. “Hungry? Do you want me to make you a snack?” Oliver asked immediately when they entered the penthouse. “Are you kidding me

Oliver placed his hands on Claire’s behind and got to his feet, carrying her with him.Automatically, Claire wrapped her legs around his torso and snaked her arms around his neck.She looked into his cerulean blue eyes and relief washed over her before saying, “I thought it was all over this time.”Oliver’s eyes softened. He walked to the bedroom while replying, “You’re the only woman I can ever love. If for some reason you didn’t want to take me back, I would have stayed single and waited for another chance to be with you in our next lives.”Claire chuckled, tightening her legs around Oliver’s waist. She shook her head and asked, “What if we don’t cross paths in our next lives?” They had entered the bedroom and Oliver walked towards the wall and pinned Claire against it, her legs and arms never leaving his body. He lowered his head and sucked on her soft lips. Gently, yet deeply. His tongue explored every corner of her mouth as he tasted her sweet flavour. Letting up, he declared

“Choose the movie and I’ll make us some snacks,” Oliver suggested. They had just finished their shower which took longer than it was supposed to because they went for another round after showering and had to shower again when they were done. The second time they made love, Oliver pinned Claire against the glass door and entered her from behind. He loved watching her expression of pure pleasure through the reflection of her face on the glass doors. “Um, what would you like to watch?” Claire asked as she grabbed the remote. She was wearing one of Oliver’s t-shirts which was reaching her mid-thigh. The penthouse had a few new female clothes that Oliver had purchased for her in advance but he insisted she wear his shirt. Looking at her now, he thought she looked so sexy in his clothes. “I like everything you like, so choose what you want to watch,” he said and walked to the open kitchen. They had chosen to have their movie night in the living area even though the bedroom had a TV. Th

“Come on, let’s go. It will be fun!” Quinn exclaimed, trying to get Claire to leave the house. “Yeah… Oliver has paid for everything. All we need to do is go out and enjoy ourselves,” Clara Ford stated. Claire glanced at the four women helplessly. Quinn and Oliver’s sisters had visited her and proposed to take her for a fully sponsored girls’ day out. In the past weeks, Claire, Quinn and Oliver’s sisters had gotten closer so it was not a surprise that Quinn showed up with Oliver’s sisters early in the morning. “It’s a weekend and I would like to sleep in,” Claire groaned, covering her head with the blanket. Quinn pulled off the blanket and exclaimed, “Not today! We are being sponsored to get pampered! Let’s not let the billionaire’s money go to waste.” "That's right! Oliver gave us his black card and it's unlimited. We can get whatever we want," Zara Ford chipped in with an excited look on her face. Evelyn just smiled from the side, watching as Claire struggled to get up.It had

Claire's heart was galloping loudly against her ribcage. Was she dreaming?Butterflies went wild in her stomach when she realised she had just walked into her own wedding! Now she understood why she felt the wedding dress looked familiar. This was the dress she picked when Oliver was asking for her opinion. Looking around, everything starting from the accessories she wore to the wedding theme was the same as the things she picked in the magazine. Her eyes watered with tears when she met Oliver's eyes. He was waiting for her at the altar in a white jacket and black pants, his eyes never looking away from her. The aisle was decorated with floral arches and a champagne carpet was spread out for her, just the way she had imagined. A song by Christina Perri called A Thousand Years began to play and Thalia tagged at her hand. She looked up at her and urged, "Mommy, Daddy is waiting for you." Claire took in a shuddering breath. She was so overwhelmed with emotions that she didn't know h

“Welcome to the family, Claire,” Roxanne said and hugged Claire. “Thank you, Aunt Roxanne-” “Who’s your aunt? Call me Mom from now on,” Roxanne replied. “Thank you, Mom,” Claire corrected herself, her cheeks flushing. It was in the evening and time for the wedding reception. For the ceremony, Claire was in an exquisite satin emerald green mermaid gown. It was a one-shoulder with the bodice embroidered with emerald stones. The dress had a detachable train on the right side and a thigh-high slit on the left side. She had changed her hairstyle and let her raven hair flow down her shoulders with the left side pinned back with a diamond hair clip. Oliver, on the other hand, was donned in an all-black tailor-made suit with his hair styled into a slight quiff. He looked handsome and every majestic step he took oozed with dominance and power. “I’ve got a surprise for you two, wait for it!” Roxanne exclaimed with a huge grin on her face. Oliver narrowed his eyes at his mother and questi

After the newlyweds’ first dance, the MC announced that the dancefloor was open and invited the guests to join the couple on the dance floor. Quinn Edwards who had been minding Thalia remained alone at the table when Thalia was called to dance with her parents. “Need a dance partner?” A man’s voice reached her ears as she was watching how everyone was dancing on the dancefloor. Whipping her head in the direction of the voice, Quinn’s eyes widened slightly when she saw one of Oliver Ford’s friends, Jake Norton. He was her partner on the bridal team and they had danced together at the start of the reception.Shaking her head, she replied, “No thanks. I’m more of an observer than a dancer. I love watching people have fun.”Jake arched an eyebrow. He drew a chair out and took a seat next to Quinn before saying, “I had been wondering why you looked so familiar. But then I sent my mother some of the photos because she’s travelling and couldn’t attend the wedding. She’s the one who recogn

Years came and went... After a warm shower, Oliver stood behind his wife to help her wear the necklace that was engraved with their children's names. "So, you know what today is?" He asked as he placed the necklace around her neck. "How could I forget?" Claire arched an eyebrow. "You've been talking about it for months.""Yes... because I've been preparing a vacation for us for when this day comes. I can't believe it's been eight years already," Oliver remarked. When he was done putting the necklace around Claire's neck, he placed a soft kiss in the crook of her neck before saying, "You've made me the happiest man on earth, Angel."Claire sighed before leaning back into Oliver. She remarked, "Time flies."Everything was going well for everyone. Oliver Ford had taken over as chairman of the Ford Corporation after his father, Henry Ford, retired. With Oliver's leadership, the company was taken to greater heights and it expanded to more foreign countries. As for his marriage with Cl

"Uncle Jake. Remember how you owe me?" Thalia said with her arms crossed over her chest. "I'm here to collect."Oliver, Jake and Liam were left to babysit the kids while their women went out to relax. The men chose to let the kids play in the playroom while they caught up on a few soccer games that they had missed during the week. However, Thalia saw this as an opportunity to collect her debt from one Jake Norton. He was seated in the living area, invested in a soccer game when she confronted him. Jake's eyes widened. He didn't expect the little one to interrupt him when the game was just getting good. His favorite team were leading and he wanted to see how it would end. He chuckled and replied, "You want to collect now? Let's wait until the game is over, ok?""Are you trying to run away from paying your debt, Uncle Jake? A real man sticks to his words," Thalia remarked in her adorable voice. Jake sighed. He said, "Ok, you win, sweetheart. So, tell me. What do you want me to do f

A few weeks later..."I can't believe you guys are having a double wedding! I'm so freaking jealous! I want to get married again so that we have a triple wedding!" Claire exclaimed after Quinn and Aria were done with their makeup."Oh my... you two look so gorgeous. I love the designer wedding dresses," Claire remarked with a smile plastered on her face. "It was more convenient since we were both getting married this year. Besides, Jake and Liam are ecstatic about getting married on the same day," Quinn replied, smiling. They had come to that decision during Thalia's birthday party. Oliver suggested it and the rest thought it was a good idea. "I'm more surprised that Aria is getting married. She's just a year older than me. We promised to get married at thirty," Evelyn remarked. She sighed and looked at her friend in awe. "You make such a beautiful bride, Ari. Congratulations."Aria smiled, looking at herself in the mirror. She couldn't recognise herself. With her hair pulled up int

Liam entered Aria’s apartment for the first time. He noted how cosy and homely it felt. There were blue couches in the living room and grey curtains on the windows. Liam’s eyes fell on the portrait of a little boy hanging on the wall. His heart raced as he looked at the boy who had dark brown curly hair with fair skin and hazel eyes. ‘Is that my son?’ He thought in his mind. The boy took after Aria but he had his eyes. Liam's heart felt warm. He glanced at Aria and eagerly asked, "Where's Jayce? Where's my son?""He should be in the kitchen with his nanny. Let me get him," Aria responded, her stomach a bundle of nerves. She still couldn't believe what was happening. It all felt surreal. Just the previous day, she didn't know who Jayce's father was, but now, not only did she find out who it was, but he also proposed to her. Who knew she would end up with the stranger she had a one-night stand with?Her heart was filled with warmth and sweetness. Aria looked for her son and sure e

Sophia Hill was over the moon at the thought of her long-time dream finally coming true. When she left the special forces and joined Liam’s company as part of his security team, she developed a crush on him.She did all she could to get noticed by him and when Liam noticed how good she was, he promoted her to be his personal bodyguard. However, that was just it. Liam never made a move on her or spared her a glance. Sophia thought since he was a player, it wouldn’t be hard for him to fall for her. However, nothing of that sort happened. Liam kept her as a bodyguard and never saw her as anything more. A chance came for Sophia to make Liam hers. He accidentally got drugged at a party and Sophia was ecstatic about such a great opportunity. To her shock, she found him making love to another woman in the room she had booked for him. Fierce jealousy rushed through Sophia and she wanted nothing but to separate the two but it was too late. All she could do was wait until Liam was done. She

Liam’s heart was beating like a drum within the walls of his chest. He took in a deep breath as he held the envelope. His friends stood beside him, waiting to read the results with him. Oliver patted his shoulder and said, “Don’t worry… even if you don’t turn out to be the father, you still love Aria and you will be with her.”“That’s right. Look at me and Lucian. We may not be related by blood but he’s my son and I love him. I’m sure Aria’s son will love you regardless.” Liam let out a breath. He glanced at his friends and they nodded at him in encouragement. Ignoring his pounding heart, he opened the envelope and took out the document with trembling hands. “The results are usually at the bottom of the page,” Jake remarked. “Don’t waste your time reading the statistics.”Liam’s eyes went to the bottom of the page and he read the results in his heart. A smile crossed his lips before it turned into a grin. “The child is mine! Aria’s son is mine! Haha! I have a son!” Liam exclaimed,

“What?” Jake’s eyes were almost popping out of their sockets. “Is it the same Aria we all know? Wait, she’s back?”Liam almost laughed at his friends' reaction. He knew they would be shocked. He and Aria had a huge age gap but surprisingly, they got along well. No one would know they were nine years apart in age if they saw them together. This was why Liam was convinced she was the one. He wanted someone he could relate well with as a wife. Forever is a long time to be with someone you can't stand. He nodded and replied, “Yes, it’s her. She’s working at my company-”“Liam… she’s like a sister to me. Are you really in love with her or you’re taking advantage of her?” Oliver questioned, his eyes narrowed down at his friend. “I wouldn’t propose to her if I didn’t love her-”“You what? Are you crazy? Do you think Uncle Adrian will agree? He knows you’re a player,” Oliver said. “You could have started by winning him over first.” “Well, I’ll do that but first, there’s something I need he

Liam's hand trembled when he held the familiar bracelet in his hands. What did this mean? Why was this bracelet with Aria?He took in a sharp breath, his heart clenching at the memory that flashed through his mind as he examined the bracelet. It was definitely this bracelet. He may not remember anything from that night but he remembered how brutal he was. The drug had taken full effect and he lost control. It was like a beast within him was unleashed and he devoured the woman who had walked into his room without mercy.This was why he felt guilty when he found out it was Sophia. He was so rough and probably hurt her during the session. This was why he kept her around to compensate her. However, the bracelet in his hand brought back part of his long-lost memory. The woman beneath him was struggling when he became so rough he had to grab her neck to pound into her like a crazed beast. He recalled how she held his wrist and the bracelet in his hand was on her wrist. The bracelet was m

"Why can't you take me seriously, cupcake? I really want to marry you," Liam said after Aria tried to brush off his words as bluff. Who didn't know that Liam never wanted to get married? He had been announcing it for years since she knew him. She chuckled and uttered, "You don't need to lie, Liam. I know you." Liam furrowed his eyebrows. He remarked, "There you go again using my reputation to judge me. I want to marry you, Aria. You're the right one for me... I can feel it in my bones."“B-But you haven’t even met my son yet,” Aria mumbled when she realised he wasn't joking. “I’ll meet him before we have our wedding,” Liam replied. Aria’s eyes widened into saucers. She asked, “We will have a wedding?”“Of course! Isn’t that how people get married?” Liam arched an eyebrow. “I thought you wanted a contract marriage. Like you need a wife and I’m available-”“It’s not a contract. I want to marry you for life,” Liam proclaimed. “Till death do us part.”Aria bit her lower lip as she th
