"Fuck!" Sam cursed inaudibly. Caught by Terrence's piercing gaze, he couldn't help giving out an apologetic smile.

"Terrence fucking Adams!" Athena sneered. Her eyes flickered sharply glaring at the man who came to interfere in her business.

Terrence strode forward and glared at the unknown man coldly who pester's his wife. "Manager Wilson, you had such a good taste in women, huh?" He mocked as he inched closer to his angry wife.

"Boss…" The guy shivered, lowering his gaze down in embarrassment. "I didn't know that she's already... I'm sorry!" He trailed off his words and apologized sincerely.

"He's talking nonsense. Don't listen to him." Athena muttered with a flirty smile.

Terrence craned his neck and shot a sharp glare at his wife. "What di

    Terrence felt satisfied with his wife's submission. He sighs and finally stops tormenting her and kisses her on the forehead lovingly. He never had done such a gesture like this to his so-called girlfriend and he found it rather pleasing on his side. Being with his wife doing things like he did was something he regretted not doing before. He even wondered if he had gone nuts before to hate her for Hannah's sake."Be good, baby. I'll tell Anton and Sam that we're heading home ahead of them, okay?" He whispered tenderly as he stood up stuffing himself inside his jeans and buckled his belt back. He then fished out his mobile phone and dialed Anton's number telling him that he was taking his sister home.Athena nodded and emitted a long sigh of relief. She's back to her husband's arms again and she couldn't think of a way to prevent it. What the heck is wrong with her? Since t

    Athena went silent for a while trying to digest her husband's words. She massaged her temples repeatedly feeling a sudden surge of headache hitting her brain cells. How the heck would she be able to get her intentions hidden when her husband was trying to add some salt on her wound by threatening her? He clearly is making things difficult for her! He wants her to get furious and explode, isn't he? "Say something, Mrs. Adams…" the man urged as he chuckled while observing her contorting facial expressions. He seemed amused at her reaction that he couldn't help teasing her. "How on earth… did you come up with such an idea?" Athena took a deep breath to calm her raging nerves down. She would probably kick his ass hard if he couldn't give her a good explanation for her questions. Terrence threw her in his bed without further ado lea

    "Please don't tell me that I'm hearing things accurately?" Athena jolted up from her laziness. The words 'personal assistant' make her feel uneasy."Accurate as it is, baby. You will be my assistant for a month." Terrence couldn't help chuckling seeing her so furious."What the hell? You're planning to put me on your payroll?" Athena cursed furiously while giving him a death stare."Come on, baby. I am not that tolerant of curses for breakfast." Terrence warned, throwing the blanket from his body. He jumped off the bed and crossed his arms over his chest while watching his furious wife. "Watch your pretty little mouth or else…" he trailed off his words and winked."Or else what? Is this all you can do? Always threaten me to get what you want?""Of course not! I'm also capable of other things that would make you exhausted and you know better than I do that you belong to me whether you like it or

    "Bend over…" Terrence ordered and brought up the hem of her towel just above her waist as he released himself from his robe. He was throbbing hard. His arm circled her midsection holding her tighter as he entered inside her in one deep and hard thrust. "Oh! Damn it! You really messed everything up with me, Athena. I'm getting addicted to this…" he muttered and began to move intensely behind her."Terrence…" she moaned erotically. Her hands pressed flat on the door hard for support."You can't come yet…" he warned. His voice turned deep and husky while panting hard.She bit her lower lip and held her breath. His deep grunts and his chiseled chest that bumps on her back surprisingly pleased her. She wants to face him and see how he looks at her while dealing with their intense desire for each other. "I want to hold you…" she bargained while breathing heavily.He paused and caught his breath. "Are you sure you want

    Quarter an hour, the couple reached the hospital where Hannah had been admitted. He parked the car and took out the key. "Are you coming with me?" Terrence sounds hesitating."Do you want me to?" Athena responded."Of course. Let's go…" He urged and occasionally unbuckled his belt. He was about to open his door but something flashed in his mind, making him halt halfway.Athena also unbuckled her belt and was about to jump off from her seat but her husband was fast to catch her wrist. She gave him a questioning look. "What's wrong?" She asked."The last time we came here, we were good to each other. When we left we were arguing and even fighting. I don't want that to happen again, do you hear me? No matter what you see or hear from her, don't let them get into your head. I'm with you on this. Do you understand?" He explained. Patience and tolerance radiated in his entire demeanor while waiting for her assurance.

    Terrence clenched his jaws really hard. Suppressing the laughter that threatened to escape from his throat, he swallowed hard and watched Hannah tremble in her spot. His breathing keep on hitching while throwing glances at his wife who looked at his so-called girlfriend with sharp and murderous eyes. After gathering himself together, he cleared his throat and took a sharp breath. "Athena, where have you been the other night?" He was now interrogating.Athena played cool. Clearing her throat and clicking her tongue, she looked up seemingly thinking for a while. "The night before last night, I was with someone and we're having a very fierce fight…" she narrated.Hannah looked towards her direction and scoffed. "We had a fight of course." She tried to play cool and proceeded to do her facade without the awareness that she had been digging her own grave."Excuse me? I did have a fight with that someone but that fight was really on

    Terrence felt uneasy. His wife's words sent a weird shiver running down his spines. He took hold of her hand as they walked through the corridor until they reached their car. They both entered and settled on their seats in silence for a few seconds before he started the engine and drove towards his company."Baby, tell me what you've been thinking. What do you mean by pulling them back to the city?" He sounds curious yet uncertain. Hannah must have crossed her boundaries that Athena wants to cause so much trouble for her family."You want to defend her?" She glared at him while fishing out her mobile phone from her purse."What are you talking about? Of course not. Why would I? I told you that I am on your side, didn't I?" Terrence defended himself in a hurry. By the looks she was giving him, she was really mad. Her eyes that used to be gentle while looking at him were now blazing in so much fury. Apparently, she's about to ex

    "Are you really interested in what I am thinking?" Athena hesitated for a while and thought carefully of the possible outcome. If he was adamant to know about what she was planning then might as well tell him this instance. She thought and scrolled down on her phone searching for her hidden files. She was about to show him the background of Hannah's stepbrother but his phone rang, snapping them both out from their conversation.Terrence took hold of his mobile phone from the windshield and peered at it. Upon knowing that it was his assistant, he answered the call directly without hesitation. "Mark," he mumbled quizzically.Mark went. "Boss, you have a meeting in 30 minutes with the IS Construction Company.""Alright, I'll be there." Terrence then dropped the call and started the engine as he went. "We had a meeting to catch up, Athena. Can we discuss this matter later?" He was presiding over as he maneuvers the steering w

They're awake!" she whispered half-yelled. Terrence who was currently in the middle of his wicked plan halted. "You just arrive last night from your business trip and I haven't had the chance yet to do what I want..." he complained.

    "I didn't plan these all to make you cry, Enah." Terrence said. "In fact, I want to let everyone know how sincere I am to be with you that's why I prepared this wedding to surprise you. The first one was unpleasant, not a good story to tell to our kids so I want that to change..." "I just can't believe that you did these all behind my back." She replied. "Thank you..." "This is just the beginning..." he smiled as he hand her over his hand. "Athena Adams, will you marry me for the second time?" he asked her. "I swear to be a devoted husband to you and a loving father to our kids in the future..." Under the veil, she beamed. "Can I say no?" she bluffed. "Of course you can't..." he chuckled. "You're mine and you can't refuse me either." "Right!" She laughed. "I've been yours since then..." As she took his hand, the old man said, "Young man, you probably know how much she means to me, right?" "Of course, grandpa. I promise to take care of her 'till my last breathe." Terrence swear s

Terrence just smiled at her and asked "How's your trip? Is everything fine?" "Yes, everything is fine." His father, Mr. Adams, chimes in to their conversation. "Dad," Terrence went to hug his father. Then he came next to his mother, kissing her cheeks. "Mom," "My boy..." his mother cried. "I never thought that this moment would actually come. I feel so proud of you, son." His father snorted. "He's going to be a father. When will he man up?" "Come on, Dad." Trisha yanked her father away from her brother and said, "I want to stay here for vacation."

    Perhaps Athena enjoyed the process of her make over so much as she didn't notice that she had been sitting in her comfy chair for almost three hours. If not for Vincent who came up to inform them that the car has arrived, she wouldn't realize that her husband has been gone from her sight for a couple of hours already. Curious, she asked the butler. "Uncle where was he?" "You mean your husband?" "Yes. Have you seen him?" "Ah," Vincent smiled. "He went to get the car ready for you and he also left a few instructions." "Instructions?" Her newly trimmed brows raised as she asked. "What instructions if I may ask?" "He said that he won't be here to pick you up and that someone else will do that for him. He will wait for you at the venue, Mrs. Adams." Vincent narrated fluently according to Terrence's instructions earlier. "Since that was the case, please tell the driver to wait for a little bit longer." She said without thinking too much. "Alright Mrs. Adams. Please take your time..."

    Unbeknownst to Hannah, her movements were being monitored fom the outside. To make sure that she won't do something horrible during her detention period, Terrence asked someone to keep an eye on her. Even her pregnancy was being reported to him and he firmly instructed that no matter what happened, the innocent child must be born safe as it has nothing to do with what she has done. Therefore when she suggested for an abortion, the nurse shook her head and refused her request right there and then saying that... "I'm sorry, Miss. We're not abortionists. That was against the law of human and God." Hearing this, Hannah laughed. "Do you think I still care about that goddamn law? Look where I am." She said, "I'm here in jail so why should I give a sh*t about the law?!" "Miss," the nurse sighed helplessly and replied, "...why do you sound like you have lost all your hope? Have you known that you might given the chance to come out if you truly show your sincere repentance? You're convicte

    Ashley felt her knees turning jelly when his cold and dominating voice rang in her ears. 'What was he doing here?' she wondered. The man's oppressing aura was too much for her to bear, turning the usually peaceful atmosphere into tense. However, this was the area that men are strictly forbidden according to the establishment's rules and regulations therefore she has all the freedom to move whether he likes it or not. Moreover, working hours has long been ended after he dismissed her harshly at the office so why was he still barking at her at this hour? As per their agreement, she has to look and obey him as her boss during working hours but not in places like this. This is the moment of her privacy and she had all the freedom to do whatever she wanted therefore she turned around without hesitation and spoke in an ironic manner.

Ashley was busy sorting out the documents in her office when her boss barged in without further ado which caused her hands to halt and tremble in nervousness especially when his emotionless voice began to rang in her ears. "Aren't you done yet? What took you so long?" Anton asked her coldly. She swallowed hard before she replied. "Y-yes, Mr. Stanford. It was done now." "Put them all in the safe." He barked. "Hurry up! We don't have much time left!" Ashley nodded as she stood up. In one swift, she took all the documents from her table then she scurried out, heading towards the CEO's office. Anton eyed her sharply while following behind. When she reached inside, she bit her bottom lip in frustration while scolding herself in silence. 'Ashley Mills!
