The Heart Remembers: Caught Between Billionaires CHAPTER 63
Jordan stared quietly while sitting at the dining table inside his spacious condo as Maya and Cassandra set up the food that they had prepared for his niece to take a nice photo for her social media content after recording the preparation and cooking process that early breakfast Tuesday morning.After St. Claire had sent him a message that Cass skipped school to visit her father in prison, he had his niece moved in with them in his condo in the afternoon from the Cunningham estate so he could keep an eye on her.“For me to find out that you had been seeing him is too much, Cassandra!” Jordan scolded her angrily when he closed the door to the unit. He watched as his niece just sat on the sofa quietly, something he was not used to. “He’s the reason why your mother died!”“He just wanted to talk to me!” Cass argued, close to tears.Jordan walked towards her and stood in front of her.“Talk? Or is he asking you for money?” He questioned hardly. “If he tells you that he wants to get close

Gripping her phone tightly in one hand, Maya raised her hand and knocked on Jordan’s office door at The Oceanview hotel the following day. She waited tensely for him to say come in from the other side of the door.The door opened and she came face to face with Mason, who looked surprise to see her.“Um, is he busy?” She asked quietly.“Who is it, Mason?” Jordan’s voice came from inside. “I have a quick and important conference call in ten minutes. Take care of it.”Mason turned towards the direction of the voice after. “It’s Ms. Maya, Mr. Jordan,” he answered patiently. He opened the door wider and stepped aside to let her enter, giving her an assured smile. “He just finished giving instructions on the update report of the renovation. He’s just having a quick call with the hotel at our South branch.”Maya gave Mason a thankful smile and went inside the office while he walked out, closing the door. She watched as Jordan finished his call and stood up, going around the table to meet her

Grayson lowered down his phone grimly after talking with Nathan the following day. He heard his phone notified with a message and he immediately opened the file to read the mail that Nathan had sent over for him to check.“What’s the update on the facial recognition?” Grayson asked intently, going out from his parents’ room after reading Nathan’s message before he called. “Has he been identified already? What’s the f8cking ba$tard’s name?!”“The system is still running, man,” Nathan answered at the other line. “With more than 300 million population, it’ll be a while unless we’ll get lucky. This state alone is almost at fifty.”Grayson cursed at that answer.“How is she?”“Cunningham had taken her to the hospital,” Nathan said. Before Grayson could react to the news, Nathan immediately cut him off. “I think it’s not only because of that incident, Gray. The undercover that I had assigned near her said that she was somehow distraught when she came back to the kitchen after heading up to

Maya walked around the mall quietly as she immersed herself into window shopping the following day with four bodyguards surrounding her as instructed by Jordan. She remembered the argument they had in the morning when Maya was introduced to the additional two men that Jordan will be accompanying her. “I don’t need additional two men!” She snapped at him when the men told them that they will be waiting for her downstairs at the parking area. She gripped the plate of eggs that she made and set it down the table abruptly. “Two is already enough!” Jordan shut the newspaper that he is reading and slammed it on the table to prove his point. “You know that rogue was right,” he pointed out dryly. “He did warn me that you have this aversion to men tailing you wherever you go.” “There’s nothing wrong with that!” She returned angrily. “And why the hell are you talking with Grayson?” “Well, the TRO I had on him is for you and not for me,” Jordan said with a shrugged. He picked up his cup of c

Grayson got out of his private plane and bounded down the stairs where Thomas is waiting for him with a gray Mercedes Benz behind on a Saturday morning. After thanking the crew, he immediately got inside the car behind the driver while his secretary occupied the opposite side.“These are the documents that Mr. Nathan wanted me to hand to you the minute you arrive,” Thomas said formally as he handed him an envelope. “It’s about the driver, Simon Ryder, who was the last person who saw Rachel Hamilton alive.”“How about that black box that Nathan had mentioned?” Grayson asked as he pulled out the documents. “Was he able to retrieve the file already?”“Not yet, sir,” Thomas replied. “He already got the court order with the consent of Mr. Cunningham. He will see to it on Monday first thing. He flew in yesterday to take care of it.”Nodding at his assistant, Grayson browsed through the documents that Nathan had prepared for him and read through the file of the driver-bodyguard that was with

Maya woke up the following Monday morning and was surprised to see Jordan, lying beside her sleeping and wearing the clothes probably from the day before. She studied his face that looks to be quite tired from the dark circles under his eyes. He had a straight nose that goes together with his prominent chin and squared jawline.He has a wide forehead, strong brow bone and thick straight eyebrows that she remembered she had her hands run over it when she gave in to his lovemaking the previous day.Where did he go? She wondered as she watched him rolled onto his back, still in a deep sleep.Jordan didn’t even bother to cover himself with. The way she sees it, he just probably took off his shoes and immediately fall into bed to sleep. Maya didn’t hear or felt him last night or whatever time he came because she took a sleeping pill when she had a nightmare the other night. That night where Jordan didn’t come home.It was the first time for her to sleep alone on his bed since the day he ha

Jordan walked beside Maya by the shoreline of The White Coral Beach late that afternoon after taking her into a pasta house where she met and talked with the owner, an Italian chef who gave her a tour of his factory and taught her how to make handmade pasta from scratch that his grandmother had taught him.He remembered just watching her eyes getting excited at every word the chef is telling her. He had also seen that when he took her to the coffee shop where he watched her enjoyed the slice of dark chocolate cake that the owner served her.Jordan realized that he had fallen in love with the woman that she is now. Not as Rachel but as Maya. He didn’t know when but he guessed it was during those times he had pushed himself on her while St. Claire was back in E Country and had sought his help in watching over him.St. Claire made that big mistake, Jordan thought.Maya had been haunting him in his dreams ever since that night she came also as a chaperone to Cass’s school dance. She was w

Grayson slowed down the speed of his car as he finally saw the familiar line of trees of the residential area where he had followed Jordan over the weekend. He looked at his watch and saw that it already read eleven in the evening. Looking through the rearview mirror, he saw Cunningham opening his eyes and looked towards the surroundings.They could have arrived earlier. However, the wound on Maya’s arm became infected and she started having a fever. They finally had no choice but to make an emergency stop at a hospital in a small town they passed by for the doctors and nurses to tend to her. They had to wait several more hours as she was administered an antibiotic in her system that needs her to be at rest for a while.He also advised Jordan to put a different name on Maya’s information just as a precaution. Jordan stared at him for a while before following what he was told.“How the hell did you find out about the country home?” Jordan demanded at Grayson, who stood outside the buil

Ten Years Later… Jordan took a sip from his coffee and frowned through his sunglasses when he saw who seemed to be a paparazzi took a quick photo of him on a bright Wednesday morning at one of the quaint cafés in E Country. His eyes followed the man for a while before he finally reached for his phone on the table when it notified of a message. He read the message that Mason had sent him before opening the attached file of a certain contract for his hotel. “Jordan!” A warm voice called out. He looked up and a smile appeared on his face when he saw Maya walking towards him with a smile. He stood up from his chair when she is near and bent down, giving her a soft kiss on her cheek when she finally arrived. “Have you waited long?” She asked after he pulled a chair for her and sat down. “Not too long and caught a paparazzi take some shots,” he answered with humor. Maya gave him an apologetic look before looking up at the waiter and took the menu handed to her. She scanned for a few

Grayson, with his arms crossed over his chest, watched the doorway of the delivery room on the VIP Floor Level, where Maya has been wheeled in over an hour ago. He uncrossed his arms and massaged the back of his neck to get rid of the strain that he is currently feeling.It was a late Tuesday evening when he received a call from his butler that Maya is on her way to the hospital, informing him that her water broke and started having contractions. Finishing his meeting with his tenants, he immediately went to the hospital.“Hey, I’m here. Didn’t I tell you not to walk too much?” Grayson said softly as well as chiding her, when he entered her room, where she is breathing in and out deeply while she went through another contraction. He took her hand from Yasmine and let her squeeze his tightly while his other hand rubbed her back. He kissed her head lovingly and smiled down at her. “Looks like we’re finally meeting our son in a few hours.”Maya, with tears in her eyes, looked up at him a

Three Weeks Later… Maya stood quietly at Jordan’s garage and watched as his bodyguards carefully loaded several luggage at the back of one SUV. She clasped her hands in front of her and waited for him to come out from his house. After a while, Jordan appeared at the front door, carrying Spencer in his arms, who has his one hand over his eyes, sobbing lightly. Jordan, on the other hand is assuring him gently, telling him to stop crying and assuring Spencer that he’s going to call him every day. When their eyes met, Jordan removed Spencer’s hand from his eyes and kissed him tenderly and whispered something to him. Maya watched as their son hugged his father’s neck tightly and kissing him on the cheek again and again. “Now, promise dad that you will take good care of Mommy,” Jordan said after a while. Spencer nodded, crossing his hand over his heart, making a promise. Jordan smiled satisfactorily and after one last hug and kiss, he gently handed Spencer to Lila. “Let Lila take you b

Jordan stared through the window from the small gap of the sheer curtain in his office the following day and watched as a car pulled up on the driveway at the opposite villa. Several cars then followed, parking by the side of the road.Grayson came out and immediately went to Maya’s side, opening the door for her. He helped Spencer out first and hoisted him up on his left side while holding out his right hand to Maya. She stepped out gently, wearing a white floral, lace dress that ended just below her knees.He bent down and kissed her for a while before pulling her into his arms.“He managed to secure a special license just right before office hours were done yesterday,” Xavier said over the phone a few hours ago. “Nathan, Callum, Thomas and Skylar, a good friend of hers were the witnesses. Spencer was made ring bearer.”Jordan just then ended the call without saying anything.He continued to watch as Grayson and Maya walked towards the main door, holding hands and smiling happily. J

Grayson stared through the window at the back of the Bentley he is riding on that night, watching the rain lightly drenching the city. He watched as pedestrians hurriedly walk or run for cover while those with umbrellas immediately opened them up.He could see couples wrapping their arms around each other as they shared an umbrella while others are hovering underneath one coat as they crossed the street.Melanie Peters, his brother’s secretary, whom Benedict temporarily lent to him was dictating his schedule for tomorrow.“Tomorrow you’ll be meeting Mr. Frederick Oldman,” she stated. “He’s the caretaker of Barmpton Keep. He’ll be updating you the accounts and operations of the building. He also informed me that he will be presenting proposals as well for a higher income target next year.”“My lord?”Grayson looked towards the front and saw Melanie looking at him expectantly.“Cancel it,” he said firmly finally making up his mind. “Take me to the airport now. I’m going back to Maya.”“

Maya went out from the car the following day and looked up at the house that Grayson had bought for them at Montleigh Villas. She looked down when Spencer took hold of her hand and smiled at him.“Are we staying here?” Spencer asked as he turned around to where Jordan is, who just got of his own car and cross the street towards them. “Will daddy be staying with us?”“Daddy will be just across the street,” Jordan answered for her with a smile.“Why?!” Spencer asked again.Maya has no words for her son.“Well, because your Auntie Meg, Cass, Grandpa and Pops are staying with me there for the meantime,” Jordan explained calmly as he lifted him off his feet. “But, guess what?”Spencer looked at his father expectantly.“Pogo will be staying with you!” Jordan then said and Spencer squealed with happiness.“Welcome back, Maya,” Yasmine greeted with a smile. “I have brunch ready for you.”Maya smiled at her in reply and turned back to Jordan. “Will you join us for brunch?” She asked him. “I co

Maya leaned back on the pillows placed behind her after she took some medication from the nurse on a Monday morning, where she was finally moved to a regular room in the VIP Floor, two days after she woke up. She looked down and made sure that Spencer is sleeping comfortably beside her. Her son had never left her side since she woke up and her heart ached at the thought of the difficulty he went through for the past weeks.She listened as Thomas recounted everything from the day, they went to confront Mary up to the day she had finally awaken. She shuddered when she knew the amount of drugs that Maverick had injected into her and the fatal shot that was meant for her where Jordan had saved her by putting himself in front of her.“Callum’s taking care of the properties from your parents,” Thomas continued softly. “Hopefully, you will be discharged tomorrow or the day after. I called Mr. St. Claire but he’s still in a meeting with some investors.”Maya only nodded and her eyes traveled

Maya reached out her hands and gently touched the petals from the field of tulips that she is walking through. She smiled as the flower bent towards her as if bowing at her presence. She looked around the fields and gasped at the awe of beauty surrounding her.She looked towards the bright and blue sky as she walked further down the fields.“It’s so beautiful here,” she murmured as she held onto her hat when the wind blew.She continued walking through the grounds, admiring the field. When she saw a path to her right, she turned and this time she found herself surrounded by fields of roses and peonies. Her smile widened at the beautiful sight.“Mommy!” A voice rang out behind her.Maya turned and saw Spencer, running towards her with a big smile on his face and his arms opened wide. She got down to her knees and opened her arms, waiting for him to come close.“Hi, mommy!” Spencer greeted with a big smile on his face as she enveloped him in a loving and warm embrace. He gave her a loud

Two weeks later…Jordan watched from the bench as the jury came back from their private conference room on a Wednesday morning. He shifted on his seat and winced a little and Adam, who is beside him, turned in concerned.“I’m good,” he assured as his friend. “Just needed to stretch out after this.”It has been more than a month since they were finally able to catch Paul Willis, Mary and Jenna Hamilton and her kids and ended the havoc that they created.Jordan was able to wake up from his coma two weeks after the incident and that was when he finally discovered the deep reason why such turmoil was made especially by Paul Willis. To his shocked, Grayson’s brother was able to find out that Paul Willis is an offspring of his grandfather from a woman he randomly met at a business summit. During that time, his grandmother had already passed away and the woman just became a passing fancy.When Dexter was informed that she got pregnant and said that she doesn’t want to be involved in his worl
