Elis mansion main headquarters Under the moonless night two women were shoved in a room.“ Please don’t hurt us.” The blonde girl begged while the other one was just covering her ear so that she couldn't hear anything while squeezing her eyes closed. “ Shut the fuck up!” The guy who brought them in the room spoke while shoving his index finger on the blonde woman’s temple making her fall out of balance.“ You didn’t think the consequences when you run away from home, Don’t you know the world is so fuck up your just food for the wolves?!” He shouted before kneeling down in front of her. He took a syringe from his back and grabbed the blond woman’s arm.“ No, please I beg of you sir, don’t put that in me!” She tried to pull her arms away but the guy was way stronger than her. She screamed when she felt the fluid run down through her veins. Not long after the blonde lady became quiet . The guy took another batch of syringe containing drugs inside and grabbed the other woman's hand. “
My men were already prepared for the worst case scenario after experiencing so much backlash this fast few days. That damn Nicolas was to blame. He ruined all my plans and he only joins hands with me because he has ulterior motives. I didn’t know he would swindle my money just to fulfill his desire to be reunited with his old lover but that's all for nothing. Now he has to live in an isolated place for mentally ill people. I heard Clyde Harlington is a philanthropist and a genius when it comes to business but he has a dark side of him that nobody knows. When it comes to his family, if someone harms them he can be a completely different person. That’s what happened to my half brother in Brazil. When he couldn't find his twin sister he became savage, killing anyone that stood against him. Begging won’t even work and I heard my half brother beg for his life but he was not spared. When the Mikhaylov group of men came to aid him he annihilated almost half of the gang members. Knowing Clyde’
I hitch my breath hearing his voice. It sounds completely the same as before, like he never changes at all.“ Where are you? Why the sudden call?” I asked suspiciously. Even though i have long to meet him again after i broke up with him. I know he hates me for aborting our child. There must’ve been a huge reason why he decided to get in touch with me. “ Why? Can’t I get in touch with you anymore? If that is so, I won't bother you anymore.” Hearing what he said made me panic so I spoke without thinking any further.“ W- wait! Let’s meet, please don’t hang up on me.” I pleaded as I shut my eyes because even after all these years I haven’t forgotten about him and my heart still yearns for his love. The other line became quiet for a while which made me hold my breath as well.“ Aren’t you afraid of me mi querida ( my dear )?” I shook my head even though he was not in front of me and no one else was seeing my action.“ I know you need something from me, and I know you hate me to the bon
Albert Eli’s The Huber Family is known for being meticulous especially when it comes to the safety of their guests and the only heir of the family. If i had other choice I wouldn't be risking everything and even my life but when a mouse is place in a corner without nowhere to go anymore they become wilder than expected and I am just like that. Dialing a number, a few rings and my cousin Rafael Lima picked up the call.“ How's your injury?” I asked, knowing he took a few shots to protect the person he loves. A bitter smile appeared on my lip. My cousin is much better than me. At least he manages to protect the woman he loves even though he’s the one who caused her pain in the past. He repent and repaid his mistake with his life.“ I'm still in the healing process but I will survive this, how about you?”“ I am cornered and I call just to let you know that anything that was left behind in Mexico will be in your name.”” What the fuck are you trying to do Albert? If you have nowhere el
Clyde Harlington I held my wife’s hand while we went to sit in our designated chair. The emcee announced that it would soon start the Auction, The main event of the night. “ I know you don’t like material stuff but don’t hesitate to tell me if you want something Kitten.” I whispered in her ears as Alexandria lay her head on my shoulder.“ You and our son is enough to make me happy but let’s see, this will be my first time to attend an event like this.” She spoke while our hand was still entwined. The first item that was auctioned was a yellow diamond earring, A very rare piece that suits a young lady’s ear. Mostly young ladies were bidding hard for it with their boyfriends backing them up until the woman who spoke to David earlier with obvious admiration in her eye towards the latter made her final bid.“ 1.5 million dollars.” Everyone became silent, no one dared to bid anymore and she won the bidding. Curious, My dear wife whispered to my ears if I knew the lady.“ She's from a no
AlexandriaWhen I heard the first explosion I just managed to enter the parlor room. I held my mouth to muffle my scream but the kids were still frightened from the sound. “ What’s wrong mommy?” Alexander asked, looking worried. I remained calm as I walked towards the two.“ There’s probably a small accident in the mansion, don’t be afraid I am here and Your dad and Paulina’s dad together with the security will come here soon.” I reassured them as I dialed Clyde’s phone number but it was busy. Thinking he is probably contacting our own private security guards. I only called once and sat with the kids on the couch with both of my hands hugging them to my body.When the next explosion was much stronger than the first Paulina started crying looking for her dad In panic.“ It's ok sweetheart, They will come here soon, don't worry everything will be alright.” I soothingly said while Alexander stood up and grabbed Paulina’s hand.“ Pau, You should not let your fear overcome you. Stay calm
When the roller coaster emotion that has taken over me calms down, It has been two hours more. My lips quiver and my eyesight blurred as I stared again at the red light in the operating room. How long does my husband still need to stay there? The longer time that he was inside the more I felt hopeless. My mother stayed by my side and the rest of Clyde's family sat on the bench quietly waiting. Amanda was even uttering prayers for her son’s safety. I took a deep sigh as I closed my eyes. God says trust in him and let him face your battle in your stead. So I, just like Clyde’s mom, started praying from the bottom of my heart seeking God's refuge and comfort. Asking for his mercy and forgiveness lifting up the life of my husband unto him because I know he's the only one who can decide how long we could live in this world. As my tears stream down my cheeks and my shoulders start shivering from quietly crying. My mom patted my hand that was placed in my heart. I opened my eyes and saw Clyde
When we came back after forcing myself to eat just to have power to start the day. Claire booked a hotel where she, Yulia, my son and my parents can stay and rest while we are waiting for the news of my husband waking up. When we came back I saw the staff of the hospital start preparing Clyde’s room. It's fascinating how money can move people to do things efficiently, if Clyde is just an ordinary person and we are living a normal life. I stop myself from thinking because I start having chills all over my body. If we are just ordinary people Clyde won’t have the privilege to have a good Doctor attending to him nor a private room that no one can bother him with while he recuperates.Not long after everything was arranged in my husband’s private room, one nurse came out telling us that the attending physician was inside waiting for me and Amanda to come inside. Amanda warmly held my arms as we both entered the room.As we open the room we are welcomed by the beeping sound of the monito
As we lay together in the quiet of our bedroom, the soft light from the bedside lamp casting a warm glow over the room, I turned to Clyde. His gaze met mine, and the depth of emotion in his eyes stole my breath for a moment. Even after everything we had been through, he looked at me as though I was the most precious thing in his world.“I don’t know what I would have done without you,” I whispered, my voice trembling with sincerity. I reached up to trace the faint lines of his face, my fingertips gliding gently over his cheekbone and jaw. He caught my hand in his, pressing a kiss to my palm before placing it over his heart.“You’ll never have to find out,” he murmured, his voice low and steady. His uninjured arm wrapped around me, pulling me closer until our bodies fit together as if we were pieces of a puzzle. His warmth seeped into me, chasing away the lingering shadows of fear and uncertainty.Clyde’s fingers gently brushed a strand of hair away from my face, and he leaned in, his l
As I settled back into the rhythm of Oak Hill Villa, a month had passed since returning to this familiar place. My parents and in-laws living close by provided a comfort that barely masked the heavy weight of unspoken truths. I found myself navigating my day-to-day life amidst their warm presence, yet internally, I felt like I was teetering on the edge of something profound.Morning sickness visited me occasionally, an unsettling reminder of the new life inside me. This wasn’t just any pregnancy; Clyde knew I was having a twin. The knowledge shaped our conversations, casting a mix of excitement and anxiety across our daily interactions. But even with that revelation hanging between us, there remained a pressing silence about other secrets—Clyde's hidden truths that I uncovered. Just when I thought I might steal a moment to breathe, my phone buzzed; it was Nicole, her voice filled with urgency. "I need your help. Can James represent me in my custody case?" Nicole had saved my life onc
It was a crisp autumn afternoon when Clyde, our almost six-year-old son, Alexander, and I finally returned to Oak Hill Villa nestled in Jefferson County. The golden leaves of the surrounding oaks danced in the gentle breeze, catching the sunlight as if nature itself was celebrating our homecoming. The villa, with its stone facade and towering columns, stood as a testament to the beginning of a new chapter for our family. Yet today, it wasn't just a house—it was alive, brimming with anticipation and joy.For me, the journey back was especially meaningful. Though my belly was still flat, bearing twins made me long for the warmth and serenity of the villa. The moment the villa came into view, a wave of relief washed over me. "We’re home, Clyde," I said softly, my hand resting on my abdomen. Clyde reached over, squeezing my hand gently. "Yes, we are," he replied with a warm smile.Xander, seated in the back with an iPad in his lap, looked up and grinned. “Yes, we’re finally home, Daddy, a
I woke up with a feeling that someone was staring at me. When I opened my eyes I met my husband's eyes, it was so tender and loving that my hand couldn’t resist cupping his cheek with a smile etch on my lips.“ Morning, Beautiful, I’m sorry if I woke you up. I just want to feel your warmth for a brief second but I guess I overdo it.” He spoke scratching the back of his head.” I smile as I turn my body to the side to face him while I use my hand to support my head while never leaving his sight. I don't see the light in the curtain so that means the sun hasn't risen yet.“ Did you sneak out from your nurse and doctor my dear sneaky Clyde?” I asked while my hand reached for his and wrapped it with mine.“ On the contrary of my love, they did let me go but the male nurse was outside waiting for me.” He informed me , which made me nod my head before I finally helped myself to sit on the bed. Clyde rearranged the recliner so my legs could hang while I lifted my hand inviting my husband to my
I turned my body to the side, using my other arm as a support for my head while my other hand lifted to spread to the side some of Clyde’s hair that's covering his forehead. Upon closer look it seems like Clyde had more fine lines in his forehead and in between his brows. I can even imagine how he looked when I was kidnapped and thought I was drawn when I fell in the sea. I bit my lips because I felt like crying. “ Hi, My Sneaky Clyde.” I pause and place my palm on his cheeks that have growing stubble. “ Can you feel my warmth? I hope so. You know, I miss you so much. It felt like we’ve been apart more than the years I haven’t seen you. It’s probably because I love you. That's why not seeing each other even for a few days seems like decades to me.” I took my mask off and planted a kiss on Clyde’s lips. Then I took his left arm and gently placed it on my belly.“ I have good news for you Clyde, remember when you talk about having a football team? Well, congratulations because we’re
“ We will also head out so Mom and Dad can come and see you. Amanda was so eager to check on you but decided for us to buy you fruits. So make sure you try to eat all of them ok?” Claire rolled her eyes pointing to the big basket of fruits before patting my hand while smiling at me. Guessing by her reaction my mother in law probably overreacted seeing the wide variety of fruit in the basket. “ Thank you Claire and Mikhail.” Claire's husband just nodded his head as he placed his hand at the back of his wife while his free hand was holding Yulia’s.“ Bye Yulia, let's play later.” Alexander waved his hand to her and Yulia uttered “ok.” Waving back to my son. This fast few months that the Mikhaylov Family Live in our home in Oak Hill. The two became so close like they were real cousins. A smile forms on my face as my dad and mom come closer to the bed. Dad brushed my hair while mom took my hand and squeezed it gently. I can see Mom has misty eyes so I tried to cheer them up.“ I’m ok,Th
When we reached the airport it was only then that I realized that I had already forgotten about the file that I’ve just read. When I asked James he told me he will make sure to delete it because we left the secret room in a hurry and Neo was not instructed what to do with the file. I sight and thank him for everything. When I landed in Iowa City I was grateful to see that Mr. Fred was there waiting for me. When I glance at my phone it seems like nothing has changed after I left my husband. Sitting in the passenger seat I felt a throbbing pain in my head. This fast 24 hours has been a roller coaster ride. The overwhelming stress, flying back and forth to this city but it doesn’t matter even though my legs are aching my stomach is a bit upset. As long as I can see Clyde the moment the sun rises up. I will be ok, we’ll that's what i thought but upon arriving in the hospital my stomach became unbearable that Amanda who just arrived as well notice my pale look.“ Goodness! Dear, how did yo
James looked worried about me but eventually said fine and I immediately clicked the file. It was a video compilation and It plays right away. The video looks a bit old, probably from six years ago when I was still pregnant with Alexander. I gasped when I saw myself in the video walking around with a big bump. Serving some customers who ordered my aunt's famous homemade carrot cake. The video was taken not far from where I stood . It was a scorching hot day and I remembered I collapsed from the heat but I don't remember how I ended up in the hospital without any injuries at all. But in the video the camera shivered the moment i held my head trying to fight off the dizziness that i am feeling at that moment and then everything became blank but not on the video who somehow still caught the entire event. Clyde stood behind me grabbing my shoulder with one arm making my body rest on him before he scooped me up, surprising the people around the cafeteria. My Aunt came out of the casa and
Chapter * 119 She Found The Answer *The room was huge and had a big bed near the balcony. Everywhere I look, the very walls of this room are basically filled with small or big picture frames of me while I was still pregnant, while I was working on my Aunts small Cafeteria, until I gave birth to Alexander. What caught my attention was the huge portrait I had with my son when he just turned one. I wonder if Clyde pays off the photographer to get a copy of it but it doesn’t matter. I know he was obsessed with us and somehow even though it defies practical reasoning. Deep in my heart I am glad that he was there in every milestone of our son. Even without knowing, just thinking how much effort he has to put in just to have a glimpse of us from afar. A stabbing pain fierce through my heart. I wipe the tears that slip down on my cheeks as I wonder how much pain he had suffered when he wanted to be with us and he couldn't. I glance at James whom I caught staring at me. His eye’s show sad emo
