"You know him, my doll?" Lucien curiously asks while intently staring at his wife and his grandfather. "He is the old man I talk to at the cafe while waiting for Dom" she explains. "But, why is he here?" bewildered, she looks around the men and her mother-in-law. Thus, a conclusion formed in her mind."Sir...?" with her eyes fixed on the old man, she waited for the confirmation. "Your prayer is stronger than mine, Madame Wright. I've been praying for decades to have my daughter's forgiveness but got none. Not until you assured me of praying for her forgiveness. I should have met with you earlier. You seem to be a strong ally of heaven to have easily be granted of your prayers" the old man, with his tender smile, fondly explains. Lexie stares at him for a long while. Her mind is busy connecting dots and the result made her smile."By the way, it's Carlos Petrov, I'm sorry I forgot to introduce myself to you earlier at the cafe" Carlos slowly walk, meeting Lexie and Lucien halfway."

"Don't let your selfishness ruin their happiness" with a clenched jaw, Donovan grimly mutters.It was past midnight and they were back at the safe house. Everyone had settled in their rooms except for him and Sullivan who went directly to the liquor bar after they arrived. "Mind your own business, Van" the other man dangerously warns without looking at him. His eyes were fixed on the glass he was holding. "It's my business..." with his chilling cold tone, he retorted."You forgot who brought them to you. It's my responsibility, it's my conscience at stake. And don't fucking tell me I'm a Petrov with a stone-cold heart. They are already family...they deserve to know" he counters, undeterred by the man's warning."I will give you within this month. You know what I would do after this month is over" standing, he looked at the solemn man across from him. Silence rules before he walks away, leaving Sullivan with his thoughts.It's been a while since Donovan left but he remains unmoving.

Tears brimmed her eyes as she stare at the gentlewoman in front of her. She fervently blinks, trying to clear her vision. The tears threatening to fall fell like a downpour from the sky.

It may have withered through time but its beauty hasn't faded.Eleven years, eleven long years she hasn't seen the beautiful face she longed to see."Hello, dear. What's wrong? Are you hurt?" her voice, her soft melodious voice seems to fill the void in her well-being.Though the old woman look so worried and conflicted, she was surprised by the unfamiliarity in her eyes. Seemed to not recognize her. Tears stream down her face at the realization. She feels lightheaded, her feet lost their strength.

He doesn't understand what's happening but seeing Zia break down is like a boulder hitting him hard. He never

"Lucien, my love, my CEO...my Mr. Wright..." she playfully smiles, seeing Lucien grimace from what she calls him. It's a kink he hasn't overcome to be affected with.Today, they are facing the altar to profess their vow of a lifetime commitment to God, family, and closest friends who were present to witness their intimate union. A union between a Wright and a Montes. A union not for another business venture, not a merger, not an alliance of power, connection, and influence, but a union of two hearts who battled uncertainty to be together. "I was a pauper compared to the high pedestal you are in. I'm a nobody. You're the star and I'm the dust. I'm just a mere spectator of your greatness. Two polar poles apart. We are everything opposite, Mr. Wright" she sadly smiles while Lucien incredulously glares at her. The officiating priest remains smiling as he listens together with all the guests."I am a dreamer...ambitious. But never did I dream of having a Wright, particularly, CEO Lucien

Trailing her eyes to the man who blocks her view of the pregnant woman, she smiles. "I could see how he would always protect you. He never did that to me" she whispers, almost inaudible."Have you realized, you had issued a threat to my wife, Miss Johnson? You, threatening a Wright is unforgivable" Lucien dangerously mutters and was about to step forward when a hand stopped him. His body tensed at the gentle squeeze around his arm amid the consuming anger engulfing him. "No one dares to threaten my wife in front of me" the spine-chilling terror fills everyone's core. Lucien looks dangerously deadly with his eyes fixed on Ellen."She is not threatening me, my love" her soft voice caught his ears.Turning to Lexie, his unconvinced look meet her.

"Yes, baby love. We will meet our new baby later" Lexie whispers and peck a kiss on her youngest's forehead. "I'm still a baby?" Xander softly asks. Insecurity reflects on his face. "Of course, my love. Lucy, Alek, and Xander will always be Mama and papa's babies. We will just have another baby love but we love you all equally" Lexie was surprised.

After the conference at the principal's office, all parties departed with an amicable settlement. Alek was somehow pacified by the assurance from the parents of the three boys. But not before he made another warning."You three must tell everyone around here that I won't be tolerant of any provocation. You all heed my warning or I will deal with all of you myself" Alek's last words to the boys who fearfully nod at him. He even coldly glares at them before turning away to join their parents who are still in conversation with the other parents and the principal."Lucy and Alek beat those boys?" Lucien asks the head security of his sons after he stayed outside to give his instructions. The boys were already with their mother inside the vehicle."Yes, boss. The food tray did the trick. The school might reconsider using those food trays and might regard them as deadly for the children" Allen proudly and amusingly relayed to Lucien. Lucien stares at his man, trying to imagine what his s

The sudden appearance of SD's designer surprised him. He doted on her, that's undeniable, but not in the middle of an important discussion with the ruthless CEO. He doesn't want to miss the chance to talk to him. "Nothing, Mr. Varce" her smile adds to her charming feature. She has been standing next to Lucien but he has been giving her a cold shoulder.
