Ding! The door opened, revealing that they were now at the parking lot. Nathan and Hilda were already in the car and prepared to leave before the huge crowd arrived. Unexpectedly, they saw Connie and Jerome in the elevator. The two of them looked like a mess and her head was stained with blood. Jerome's face also looked devastated. Upon seeing the blood on Connie's face, Hilda could suddenly feel tears swimming in her eyes. "Mom!" She quickly ran over to her, but Connie still remained calm. She uttered calmly when Linux came over, "Linux, help your dad." Therefore, Linux swiftly held onto Jerome. After the heavy burden was lifted from Connie, her body softened and she almost collapsed on the floor, but luckily, Nathan and Hilda were there to support her. "Connie!" "Mom!" Hilda held onto Connie while tears flowed out of her eyes. Nathan immediately helped Connie into the car. After everyone was seated in the car, Nathan quickly drove the car away to leave the chaotic place bef
It was when he lost her in the face of danger that Alban finally realized that she already had a place deep in his heart. In fact, he had once gotten together with her because of Connie's instruction. Connie knew that Alban admired her and she understood that she could never bring herself to love a man other than Adrian. She could not repay Juliana's favor for reuniting her and Hilda. Alban understood her frustration, so he actively approached Juliana. In the end, he started both a relationship and family with her. Now that he had a family, he supported her so that she would not have to work hard anymore, but he also realized that during their everyday interaction, he seemed to have forgotten about his initial intentions. In his mind, he only wanted to spend the rest of his life with her, not because of what others wanted, but because of her and their child! Unable to locate her, he started to become anxious, so he continued to call her while ignoring the people telling him not to
The city tonight was filled with breaking news... The news of Juliana and Alban's secret marriage overwhelmed the reports about fashion week, half of the news headlines in Taadi City were about the bombing incident during the fashion week while the other half were about her secret marriage. Alban knew what he would soon have to face, but he was not afraid of it. The worst case scenario would be him turning his back on the Jones Family and he did not mind giving up the last name of 'Jones' to replace it with 'Hawkins'. For the sake of their child, Juliana, and his family, he had to put up a fight. Everyone was busy tonight. A lot of things recently happened in the Jones Family, on one hand, it was the marriage of the head of Jones Family, Elizabeth, and on the other hand, there was the exposure of Alban's secret marriage. Elizabeth currently did not have the time to deal with all those matters as she only had Jerome in her head. "Jer! Has anyone seen Jer?" She frantically looked
Teddy immediately went to the hospital. Sure enough, he saw Jordan and Damien's family's vehicles coming in and out of the building. He intended to head in to look for Connie, but when he thought of her being together with Jerome, he felt really upset. Also, Connie would not allow him to enter as well. After some contemplation, he dialed Elizabeth's number. Soon, her car arrived at the hospital and she actually brought along with her a number of people. Teddy parked his car at a hidden spot opposite the hospital, secretly watching everything that happened in front of the hospital. Elizabeth came in an aggressive aura, she could not bear to see Jerome and Connie together! Upon seeing the people from the Jones Family appearing with ferocity, many bodyguards, from both the Damien and Jordan Families, soon exited the hospital. Without saying a word, Elizabeth immediately ordered her men to barge in. "Ms. Jones, what are you doing?" Linux and Hilda suddenly appeared at the lobby b
Although Elizabeth was guarding the entrance, the place was Nathan's territory and it was impossible not to have a secret exit. Hilda was now guiding Jerome to leave through that exact route. She furtively peeked at Jerome and noticed that the latter's face was flushed red while it shone in a glow that she had never seen before. It was as if Jerome had changed into a different person. Looks like they had a wonderful night together... Hilda felt troubled as she did not know how to face her father so she acted indifferently. She led Jerome to the secret exit and said, "Someone will pick you up after a while." Jerome smiled. "I will take care of myself." He then got on an electric bike and traveled in the carpark for a few minutes. When it came to a stop, he was then led to a door. Then, he pushed open the door and took a few steps before the view suddenly became clear, he had arrived at a subway station. In the ward, Connie felt empty after sending him off, as if someone had dug a
A lot of things had happened over the night. The Jones Family was in a complete mess, firstly, there was Elizabeth's sudden engagement followed by the exposure of Alban's secret marriage. The combined ages of those two big shots could be totaled up to a century, but their wayward behaviors had managed to turn the world upside down, causing their family to be in hell. In contrast, the Cannon Family was overjoyed because of what someone said, 'Rex is dating someone!' The children of the Cannon Family ran around the yard, delivering the great news to everyone. Everyone in the family was delighted to learn about it. The fact that he was dating someone became a topic that all of them discussed whenever they met one another. The number one bachelor of the Cannon Family, the gigantic baby who was never in a relationship despite being almost 30 years old was finally dating someone! It felt as if the hog that they had reared for years finally learned how to graze flowers! "Rex did not r
The sun rose later in Taadi City, it was 8:00AM when the day was finally bright. Giry nuzzled Samuel in his arms and woke the latter up. Samuel opened his eyes and noticed that Teresa was already dressed and doing her makeup, it seemed like she was about to leave. He suddenly sat up. "Are you leaving?" Teresa was applying lipstick while holding the compact mirror as she replied, "Yeah." She pressed her lips as desolation filled her eyes. Samuel rose to his full height and gently wrapped his arms around her waist. "Can't you stay with me for another day?" "No, I can't." She adamantly replied. Her reply left him in dejection. As always, career is more important than a man since the latter means nothing to her. He knew where he stood. Love was not the only thing in her eyes and neither was he. Sonnia had woken up early to see Ryan and Adwoa off before they entered the car to head to the kindergarten. After that, when she was yawning in her pink, tender pajamas, she suddenly saw
Naturally, Jerome and Juliana were treated very differently. The latter could only be sidelined as she sat all by herself on the sofa in the living room in a state of restlessness. Nobody from the Jones Family welcomed her, not even the dog lying in the living room peeped a look at her. Jerome, on the other hand, received a very warm welcome. They invited him with the most heartfelt handshakes. Tea was served as soon as he and his two sons sat on the sofa while the elders politely welcomed him in person. "Mr. Bowen, young masters, your rooms are ready." Said one of the servants. Jerome nodded. He was then led to the Master's room in the mansion by the servants. The two newly arrived young masters had their own rooms as well. They were only furious about the sudden announcement of the marriage and the fact that Elizabeth had kept hidden her relationship with Jerome all these years. However, they had nothing other than an extreme fondness for him and the young masters. Jerome was
