Maya woke up early in the morning and turned slowly to Jordan’s side. She watched him as he sleeps deeply beside her, his chest, rising and falling before he rolled on to his back. Ever so quietly and slowly, she stood up from the bed and reached for her silk nightgown and put it back on before wearing her robe.

She walked towards the window and sat quietly, staring out into the starry sky. She hugged herself and rubbed her arms to removed the goosebumps she felt where Jordan’s lips had been when he made love to her a few hours ago.

One more week, Maya, she thought to herself. Just a few days more and you’ll be reuniting with Grayson.

However, the harder she thinks about it, she felt her heart getting heavy at that thought. She shook her head, feeling confused on what she is feeling right now.

“It’s probably because Spencer suddenly appeared in your life that made you feel heavy inside,” she murmured to herself. She hugged her knees and rested her head on them, closing her eyes. “Maya

    Jordan stared silently at Maya across the conference table inside an institution building on a bright Wednesday morning. She sat beside her attorney and was nodding at whatever it is being shown to her.“Have your read the latest agreement they submitted?” Gavin asked him in a low voice, who is beside him. “She’s requesting for joint custody of your son. However, I don’t think the terms are balance, so we will negotiate.”“Yeah, I read it,” Jordan answered. “Whatever is best for my son.”He watched as Maya excused herself to go to the bathroom and Hannah deciding to join her. He followed her walked out through the door and saw that her bodyguards automatically took their posts with her.Last week was his last chance. His last chance in making Maya love him back or making her remember even just one past memory where she’s saying that she loves him. But tried as he might, Maya had never remembered and reciprocated what he feels.She had spent her time with Spencer.Jordan then wondered

He heard her heart wrenching sobs inside and he turned back towards the living room where Nathan, Callum and Hannah are sitting on the couch.As he knew she would do, Maya, to prevent her son from getting hurt of choosing between his parents had made the ultimate sacrifice. He knew about it before she stood crying on the front door of the villa.“Grayson, she signed the first agreement!” Hannah cried over the phone a few hours ago. “Spencer was crying his heart out and she couldn’t take it. I’ll try requesting for another meeting with the judge and the other counselor.”“No. Don’t set another meeting,” Grayson responded over the phone. “She’s not going to go through it again. She won’t let Spencer go through it again.”Nathan looked up from the document that he is reading when Grayson took his seat.“I was informed that Cunningham took his son

    Jordan stared at his son achingly as he cried in his sleep inside the room that he had shared with Maya in his condo unit that same night. He reached out and held his one hand gently, seeing it bruised from all the clawing and punching he did when Maya walked out.After getting discharged from the hospital a few hours ago after he had lost consciousness due to his outbursts, Spencer went into another when he still noticed that his mother is still not with them.“Where’s Mommy?!” Spencer cried out desperately. He clamored towards the window and thumped his palms on the car window as he searched frantically for any form of his mother. “I want my mommy! Please, Daddy, I want to be with mommy.”Using enough strength, Jordan pulled his away from the window and wrapped him in his arms, controlling the struggles that Spencer is doing. He started massaging his son’s back and head gently and after a while, his cries had thankfully subsided.“I want mommy,” Spencer cried hoarsely. He looked up

    Maya opened her eyes on a Friday morning, silently thanking that her headache had subsided and heard the door to the room that she is staying in since the accident she had with Grayson opened.She sat up slowly and saw Grayson coming in with a glass of water and a bottle of aspirin.“How are you feeling?!” He asked as he sat on her side after handing her the glass and one tablet. “Yasmine prepared some breakfast as well. Shall I have it brought here?”After taking the pill and finishing the water, she shook her head and sat up straighter, fully leaning on the headboard. She looked at him silently, her hand on top of his. “Grayson, please be honest with me," she started slowly. "D-Do you think I did the right thing?”Grayson gave her an understanding smile.“If there were no threats in influencing your decision, Maya, then you definitely did wrong,” he answered gently. “But, let’s not talk about that, alright? Take a quick shower while I wait for you at the dining?”Maya only nodded an

    “Why are you doing this, Mary?!” Rachel asked desperately as she looked across the table at Jordan’s step sister. “What did I do that makes you act like this?”Mary Wright smirked at her.“Because you existed, you b1tch!” She replied angrily. “Your very existence makes me want to do this! Aside from the fact that Jordan ignored me over the years! Years! Did you hear me? That man had never turned his stare towards me!”Rachel tried to snatch Mary’s phone on top of the table but was beaten to it.“What do you want me to do?” Rachel questioned. She clasped her hands together in a begging pose. “How much money do you need? I can ask Jordan for it but will not tell him the reason. Please delete the video. He doesn’t need another scandal in his life. Mary, he’s your stepbrother!”Mary let out a sinister laugh.“Really? Tell me, Rachel, did he even think of me and Marcus as his step siblings?!” She retorted coldly. “Because let me tell you that he never once thought of us as such. When my mo

    “How is Rachel, Jordan?”Jordan looked up from the whisky that he is drinking at the question of his sister. His sister, who is shockingly and completely alive for years that has been in hiding, sat on the couch beside him after limping towards him carefully. He placed his glass down and placed a hand on hers that rested on his arm.After recovering from the shock that shook him when he met with Grayson that night, Jordan had been staying with Margaret and Anita Sterling, the woman who had been taking care of her after Margaret had contacted him. He looked around the spacious bungalow that St. Claire had immediately gotten for her to be a temporary hideout until she is ready to reveal herself. The property has also been surrounded by security that Jordan marveled at the connections his rival had and how he was able to handle it fast.“Like you, I also had my own advisers. Do you honestly think that I would be so careless that I will not protect myself? I had enough experience from sca

    Maya after sending out the last dish for lunch hour thanked her cooks gratefully before taking off her apron and heading towards the back kitchen. She rubbed the back of her neck to get rid of the tension she has been feeling since she came back to Aurora.It has been three weeks since that video was leaked out and the minute she stepped foot back in the public, she had been receiving several glances from those she knew and from strangers. Some had sent her pitying looks while some would give her malicious or mischievous glances.Thankfully, being with Grayson had thought her well enough to straightened her back and put on a calm facade. Though it took a lot of effort from her, Maya was glad that she was able to pull it through and told herself that when she’ll see him later, she would tell him that.“What can you say about that leaked video, Ms. Griffiths?!” A reporter came to her openly. “Is it because that your divorce was final that made Mr. Cunningham do that?!

    Grayson opened the door to his office in the villa on a Saturday morning after arriving from the airport. He placed his bag on the floor as he took a seat behind his wooden desk and immediately turned on his PC.His phone rang and he took it out from his jacket and pocket and saw Maya calling him."Hey, babe,” he greeted softly. He typed his password and pressed enter. “I just arrived at the villa and will just be checking some emails and documents before heading there for lunch. How are things there?”“Seats are slowly filling up again but I reserved a table for us,” Maya replied patiently. “Just be here by twelve because Spencer’s going to be hungry already. He didn’t finish his breakfast a while ago because he wants to go jet skiing with his dad immediately.”“Will Cunningham be joining us?” He asked tersely.“I-I don’t know,” Maya replied slowly. “But Cass and Margaret are here. So, he might probably join them for lunch since Cass still feels strange around her mom.”“I can’t blam

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.

    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.

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.
