Aurora woke up the following morning with thoughts of Caspian. Looking around the gigantic bed with its white bedspread, she realized she was no longer with him. She stood up from the bed, walked towards the bathroom, brushed her teeth, and washed her face thoroughly. When she left her room, she was shocked to see a housekeeper waiting patiently at her doorstep.

"Good morning, young mistress. I am here to inform you that your breakfast is ready! I will walk you to the dining room; madam is already waiting,” the housekeeper said. Aurora was shocked, wondering why the housekeeper had waited until she left the room.

“If I stay with Mum for too long, I will definitely add a lot of weight," she thought and smiled as she followed the housekeeper to the dining table. She met Seraphine, drinking hot coffee and listening to the news on the television.

"Hi, my darling daughter. Good morning. I hope you had a nice night,” Seraphine said, stretching her hands towards Aurora for a hug.

"Mum, I did.

    It's been 11 days now, and Caspian couldn't stop thinking about Aurora; however, he swore not to have anything to do with her again, especially whenever he remembered the pictures of Aurora lying down in indecent positions with another man. As usual, he sat watching the television in his sitting room. The news suddenly displayed a wrestling competition and those representing it. He had never had any interest in wrestling or anything related to it, but he felt weak that day as thoughts of Aurora and his beautiful romantic moments with her before the issues surfaced. He couldn't change the channel and decided to watch what the wrestling news was all about.“It’s beautiful to announce the winner of this year's international wrestling competition. It's none other than Aurora Sterling. She has made her community proud.” Hearing the name Aurora, Caspian became interested, and his eyes fully opened as he sat upright to confirm the name again. It sounded like his ex-wife's name. Then, suddenl

    "Let go of her," he screamed. Hearing and sighting Caspian, the handsome CEO, most of them backed off; it was then gossip kept flying that it was true; she was indeed the wife of Caspian; no one knew about their divorce yet; it was a silent divorce. "Oh! She looked so different; I can't believe that lady can look hot and beautiful as such," some of them gossiped. "In Fact, money is so good!" Aurora, who was so drunk, was oblivious to the whole surroundings. It was the first time she would take such many alcoholic drinks, and she drank more than she could; she started belching profusely. Caspian immediately booked a room; he wanted to take her home. However, he felt it was too late to do that. He booked the best, classic, expensive room, and room Aurora and dragged Aurora with him to the room.When they got to the room, Aurora immediately grasped Caspian's neck. "Is that my husband? Is this you? I miss you!" She screamed, got hold of Caspian's neck and started kissing him profusely;

    Aurora stared deeply at the result in her hand. She was extremely speechless. She raised her eyes and couldn't believe the doctor was smiling at her."I can't keep this pregnancy, I can't!" Aurora thought, especially as she thought of what Caspian had done to her. She didn't want to be pregnant by a man who called her a prostitute and harlot, even after breaking her virginity."Please, doctor, how do I terminate this pregnancy?" Aurora blurted out softly. The doctor, who had been smiling, suddenly halted his smile and wore a serious face."You want to terminate this pregnancy? My goodness, young lady, why, if I may ask?" The doctor asked Aurora with great concern."I am not ready for it yet; please help me," Aurora said with pitiful eyes."Oh! Madam, I would advise you not to terminate this pregnancy. Do you know how many people come to this hospital looking for a child? Why would you want to get rid of the precious gift God has given you? If you know you won't want the child after bir

    "Boss, I just saw your ex-wife right now with a boy of 3 years old who is a replica of you!” Ralph said as soon as Caspian picked up the call."My ex-wife? Aurora?” Caspian asked, shocked and eager."Yes, boss. I guess she just returned to the country! She is at the airport and has just alighted from the plane!" Ralph explained, staring as Aurora, who was elegantly dressed, walked out of his sight. Now a grown woman, she returned with Liam, who had a striking resemblance to Caspian. She sashayed elegantly and rushed to hug Seraphine, who was waiting with the guards to take her home."You are welcome, my daughter. I am super proud of you!" Seraphine said, and with joy, she pulled Liam from the ground. They all entered the car, which then drove off."Yes, boss! She has a baby boy with her!" Ralph responded."Don't let her move. Stop her! I will meet you at the airport right away," Caspian said, dropping the call before Ralph could respond."Boss, she… Shit, he has dropped the call." Ralp

    It's been two months, and Caspian has been extremely occupied with his father's sickness despite how much he has spent on him. He didn't seem to see any changes and has spent a lot of money on it, but now his business is going down extremely. "Doctor Kain! What exactly can I do to make my father conscious and healthy? I don't want to lose him; he's the only family I have!" Caspian said to the doctor, crushing his hands together in frustration."I am so sorry, Mr. Caspian. We won't lose Mr. Harrison. The only way out is to fly him abroad. That's the only way he can get proper treatment for his lung cancer. He needs sophisticated and more powerful doctors and exceptionally high-tech tools to heal. We don't have adequate equipment here, and getting lungs would be hard here. We must do what is needed as soon as possible," Dr. Kain advised. Dr. Kain is the new doctor at the hospital, employed two years after the death of Dr. Edward. Since Harrison became unconscious, Dr. Kain has been in

    "So, baby, would you eat now? The dining table has been set. Come, let's eat," Annabel said, pulling Caspian from his seat. "You need strength for tomorrow's task," Annabel said, pulling Caspian from his seat again, and he followed her to the dining table. His heart was filled with thoughts of both his father and Aurora. "Whose child is with Aurora? I need to see her and the child. I can't believe she is unmarried. Where the hell did she get that child from?" Caspian was lost in thought as he sat in his chair, watching Annabel dish out food for him. "Come on, Caspian, eat up, please," Annabel encouraged. Caspian picked up his spoon and scooped the white rice down his throat. "I need to use the restroom now!" Annabel said, excusing herself, and immediately left the dining room. She went to her room and dialed Ralph's number. "Hey, Ralph, where are you? Can we meet up in an hour?" Annabel asked. "Hey, madam, of course, we can meet," Ralph responded. Although he didn't like Annabel

    Annabel walked down to Harrison's bed. Immediately, she felt infuriated and felt like strangling him. She drew the chair in the ward so close to Harrison that she could hide under it and inject him with the poisonous syringe."Hey, you Jack! I know you detest me; part of the reason I am doing this! Why the hell will you not just die? Why do you want to make my baby a pauper before your death? I'm sorry, I have to do this; you need to die!" Annabel said in a shallow tone to Harrison. Harrison was highly unconscious, lying lifeless and supported by oxygen.Annabel immediately brought out the syringe and was about to inject it deeply into Harrison's right hand, right below the bedspread, when the ward's door opened wide."Hey, mistress! You are still here. You will need to excuse me. I need to give him some medications and some care. However, it's late, and we don't entertain visitors in the ward at night. This is a severe patient. I'm sorry, you will need to take your leave now," the nur

    Aurora gawked at Caspian irritatedly as the thought of her three-year marriage to him flashed through her mind.“Why are you in that seat, Aurora?” Caspian asked again, pointing his finger at her. Aurora remained still, unmoved by Caspian's rhetorical question and his shocked expression. She continued to stare at him, deeply irritated and at a loss for words. Without hesitation, she dialed the security post line.“I need two of you, right away!” she ordered before dropping the call. She resumed her gaze at Caspian, who was already fuming and growing impatient with her silence. He couldn't believe that the woman sitting in the seat of the overall director of the most powerful company in Montana was the ex-wife he had treated disdainfully for three years.He moved closer to Aurora, who still refused to speak, and was about to pull out a chair to sit when the door beeped. Aurora used a remote control to glide the door open, and two giant security guards walked in, bowing to her.“We are h

    The ambulance moved very fast through the city; its siren pierced through the air, Aurora sat down beside Caspian's unconscious body as her heart refused to stop beating. The bandages the paramedic had applied to Caspian were already soaked with blood and the red was seeping through the white sheets beneath him. She placed one of her trembling hands on his chest, and she felt the faint, uneven rise and fall of his breathing. Her other arm wrapped Liam, who was clutched tightly to her and his face was buried in her neck.“Caspian, stay with us, please,” she whispered, her voice breaking with her trembling lips. “You will be fine! I promise,” When they eventually got to the hospital, a team of doctors and nurses rushed forward to them as they pulled the Caspian stretcher from the ambulance. Aurora quickly stepped out as she clutched Liam tightly to herself, her legs wobbling beneath her.“Please, do everything in your power to save him!” She pleaded with one of the nurses, her voice sh

    Aurora and Caspian rushed into a dark abandoned building with a team or police officers. Caspian provided Annabel’s second line and she was tracked into the old abandoned building. Aurora’s heart pounded as the team moved cautiously down the hallways; their steps bounced against the concrete and everything second that passed felt like a dagger in Aurora's heart as the thought of Liam, her son, in such a horrible place. “Stay close, Aurora; everything will be fine,” Caspian whispered, his voice tense, however steady. He tried to stay strong, but the fears in his eyes were obvious to Aurora. When they got to the heavy metal door that led to the room, Annabel was holding Liam, and one of the officers made a sign for everyone to halt their steps. Aurora's breath halted as the officer turned the handle or the door. The door immediately opened slightly and it revealed a small, dark room that was lit just by a single bulb. What Aurora saw made her breathe halt; she was almost suffocated.

    As Aurora dashed towards her car, her heart kept beating heavily as she contemplated what to do next. She has called the police and her lawyer; her private investigator wasn't left; however, there was no news of Liam yet. She started parenbutalating and the thought of where she would head engrossed her mind. Caspian immediately dialled the cops line. Everywhere was tense as Aurora kept pacing to and fro in the parking lot; her mind was in chaos as she started thinking of how exactly Liam had disappeared.Then Suddenly, Aurora's phone rang, and she quickly picked up the call; her heart echoed as she pressed it to her ear. “Hello!” She spoke with a trembling voice, trying to figure out whose call it was. “Hi bitch!” A cold, familiar voice rang into her right ear. Aurora froze immediately, she instantly recognised the voice. “Annabel?” She whispered slowly as her heart sank. “Yes! It's a good thing you recognise my voice,” Annabel responded to her, her tone filled with anger. “Now i

    Caspian stood still watching the secretary as she dialled up the landline to Aurora’s office. He felt anxious and quite frustrated, and the sleek walls and shining floors around him refused to calm his nerves. He blinked his eyes and by the time he glanced at the secretary again, she was already on a call with Aurora.Eventually, the secretary raised her head to him. “I'm sorry, CEO Caspian; madam said she doesn't want to see you.” Before she could finish speaking, Caspian walked past her without waiting for a permit from her and headed straight to Aurora’s office.“Sir! Please, you can't go! Wait!” The secretary screamed as she ran after Caspian, trying to stop him; however, Calsina paid a deaf ear and ignored her totally. His mind was made up; getting to Aurora’s door, without knocking, he pushed the off-door one and stopped inside. Aurora, who was well seated behind her large desk, stood up immediately as she sighted Caspian barged into her office; her face was filled with surpri

    Caspian stood shocked right in the middle of the mall, his jaw clenched as his eyes were fixed on Aurora as she walked walked elegantly away with Ralph. His pride echoed hard at him not to obey Caspian's ridiculous demand to pick up the shopping cart and follow her like some kind of slave. He felt the audacity of Aurora's demand, however, the thought of losing her weighed heavily in his heart. He shook his head thoroughly as his fist tightened hard at his side. "No!" He said to himself. "This is humiliating" He then took a final glance at Aurora's retreating figure and his heart sank, and he moved his feet in the opposite direction. He then turned fast and walked out of the mall. His chest was filled with a mixture of anger and regret. The echoed or Aurora's heels clicked against the polished fade behind him as he pushed open the glass doors and stepped into the crisps evening air.Caspian's car sped through the city streets, his grip firm on the steering wheel. His mind raced with t

    After then, Aurora raised her chin and steady her gaze as she walked briskly away from Caspian towards the entrance of the mall, and her heels clicked sharply on the polished floor. Caspian, without wasting any time, trailed behind her; desperation was clearly written all over his face as he tried to keep up to her pace. "Aurora," he whispered in an insistent voice as he leaned very close to Aurora, hoping Aurora would hear him and give him a listening ear. "Aurora, what do you want to trust me on again? I have done what you requested of me to do; I have made Annabel apologize to you in public and also broke up with her, and now I am ready to be your errand boy. Please, I need you to help me, father, and business." Aurora didn't respond; she kept her face nonchalant, and her attention was fixed straight ahead. She didn't take any glance at him, and her silence made him more desperate.However, when she wanted to make a turn at him, something quickly caught her attention. There was a

    Caspian was frozen as he stood for a moment; he couldn't believe what had just been revealed to him. He was hit by the weight of Aurora words like a tidal wave. He was shocked that Annabelle was behind everything—the lies, the pictures, and the manipulation. He couldn't believe that she had manipulated him, ruined his marriage, and destroyed his trust in Aurora, and he fell for the lies—every bit of her lies. He squeezed his fist behind him as he gawked at Annabel in annoyance. His eyes were full of flames of fire; he was furious as he tightened his jaw. He wanted to scream at her for every evil thing she had done; he wanted to lash harder on her; he wanted to slap her across the face to make her feel all the pains he had gone through, which he had caused him for the past years.However, he held back and forced himself to control his anger; he didn't want to lose it now; he didn't want to lose it in front of Aurora. He didn't want her to think he was still the same man who had hurt h

    Annabele's eyes opened in shock; her heart beat in succession as she tried to understand why Caspian had requested that she kneel and apologize to Aurora. To her, it didn't make any sense, and it was a humiliating thing for her to do. She battled with the thoughts of if Aurora had told him everything that happened years ago. That she was the one that drugged Aurora’s drink years back, and what's the orchestrator of their divorce, just all because she could have Caspian? The thoughts made her head spin, and a scream of anger steamed up inside her. She couldn't keep quitting anymore; she needed to know the reason why Caspian wanted to humiliate her and wanted her to apologize to Aurora in public; she felt like it was nothing but an absolute disgrace. “Why?” Annabel demanded furiously, her voice raised, looking deeply into Alton's eyes, then back to Aurora. “Why exactly do you want to humiliate me like this in front of this bitch?” She spat out words, obviously at Aurora, with deep hat
