Trapped In Shackles Chapter 80 AN ANONYMOUS EMAIL
Feeling inexplicably baffled, Zenith stared at her wailing assistant with her inquiring eyes as she spoke, "Ashley, can you just stop crying like a baby?! I want words and not sobs for goodness sake!""Mi-Miss," Ashley hiccupped as she went, "...it was my negligence that we appeared late in rescuing you. I… I…""Stop talking nonsense, Ash!" Zenith hissed, looking irritated. "What's there to cry when I am here? Fine and alive? This is enough to prove that you guys always got my back, especially at times like that!"Ashley somehow felt a little better hearing her boss's words as her sobs decreased as well her tears, eventually subsiding. "We pledged loyalty to Mr. Monroe since he took us to work for him, Miss and you're the most important person to him so we were just doing what's right. But we're really sorry for arriving late…""Okay." Zenith sighed and said, "I don't want to hear anymore drama, let's get back to work.""Got it, Miss Zenith." She replied with a smile.Ashley then dive
Trapped In Shackles Chapter 81 I WANT YOU BACK!
When Terrence jerked his head just above his shoulder, his eyes darkened! His mood turned sour and his hope defused like a falling balloon, losing its air.! The familiar scent invading his nostrils intensified but it came from the wrong woman who appeared to be none other than Hannah! His wife's nemesis!"Terrence, I've been looking for you." She said as she stepped forward, closer to him, showcasing her entire appearance. He scrunched his nose in utter disgust as he asked, "what are you doing here?""Of course I'm here for you." She mumbled softly as she bent over to kiss him but he tilted his head, dodging from it. Her red lips kissed his cheek instead which left a lip mark on it.His jaws clenched and his facial muscles ticked, feeling extremely pissed as he wiped off the area that landed on her lips. "I didn't know that you're invited. If I had known, I should have picked you up." He mused through his gritted teeth."That's fine, love. I came here with Mike." She replied briefly
Trapped In Shackles Chapter 82 TRADE HIS SOUL FOR A SECOND CHANCE
The next day…It was around dawn when Zenith was awakened by a churning feeling of her stomach. Without wasting so much time, she jolted up from her deep slumber and ran as fast as she could towards her bathroom. She bent over the toilet bowl and puked all the sumptuous dishes she had eaten the previous night! "Ugh!" She gagged and gagged but there was nothing left but water until she felt the sudden wave of dizziness. Her head spins whilst her body weakens.Zenith slumped her back on the cold wall helplessly for support after throwing up for almost half an hour. Too exhausted to get up, she just wiped her mouth with the sleeves of her nightwear then she closed her eyes to take a brief rest.At that moment, she couldn't help but think of no one else but her husband who was the chief culprit on why she was suffering from morning sickness but apart from that she couldn't help but yearn for his presence as well. Oddly enough, Zenith craved to smell his scent and wished that somehow he w
Trapped In Shackles Chapter 83 HE'S NOT COMING BUT YOU
Meanwhile at the Monroe's Ancestral home, Zenith was wheeled out from the house to the garden by her assistant. Her timing was just perfect for the sunrise as its warm rays graciously overcasted the darkness that envelopes the surroundings making everything clearly pleasant on her sight. Somehow, she felt better while inhaling the fresh air. The nauseous feeling was gone, replaced by tranquility in return."Wow, I didn't know that the garden had bloomed a lot of flowers this month!" Ashley squealed in delight, apparently surprised at the beautiful scenery."You can leave me here, Ash." Zenith demanded. "You got a lot of things to do…""Are you sure Miss?" Ashley hesitated."Yes. I'll call you later.""Okay." Ashley then scurried back to the house, leaving her boss alone.Zenith was wearing a black hood but as she felt the sunrise on her pale skin, she felt like taking it off. In just a matter of seconds, her face was revealed but she didn't care as she knew that she was on her own pr

Trapped In Shackles Chapter 85 THE APPLICANT
Upon dropping off the call, Terrence proceeded to dial his assistant's number and instructed, "Find an aesthetician as soon as possible."Mark was currently in the middle of his dinner date when his mobile phone stole his attention. Reaching down his pocket, he fished it out and answered without hesitation."Mr. Adams,"Upon hearing his boss's demand, he choked! Coughing so hard!"Ahem! Ahem!""I need the aesthetician before this night ends!" Terrence's voice sounds urgent and demanding, leaving his assistant dumbfounded but nevertheless, Mark helplessly agrees as he has left with no other choice."I'll bring the aesthetician before the night ends, Mr. Adams.""Good! See you later!"Terrence then dropped the call and looked into the photos once again."I know you very well, Athena." He whispered as he brushed his finger on his phone screen, "No matter how you look, your body language will always tell me that it was you. You might have succeeded in getting rid of your identity as my wi
Trapped In Shackles Chapter 86 INTIMIDATING ANTON STANFORD!
Zenith couldn't hide the feeling that somehow, the new applicant was a bit familiar to her from a different angle. From the moment that her eyes fell on him, waving his hand, she sensed something unusual that is why she went ahead to the house and refused to wait for him to come in. His silhouette from the gate somehow looked similar to none other than someone she was with before. This certain sight made her feel somewhat nostalgic.'Why do I seem to see him in that guy?' she thought while shaking her head.Bothered, Zenith went to one of the balconies to observe Ashley's briefing but to her astonishment, she caught him staring at her. Her eyes darkened! How dare he stare at her like that? Doesn't he know how to act like a professional worker? Hasn't he seen someone ugly ever since? Though she's quite a bit angry, she couldn't help but think.'Those eyes… They looked really familiar to me but how could it be possible? Their looks are different.' She thought while her fingers drummed
Trapped In Shackles Chapter 87 HOW DARE YOU HIDE IT FROM ME?!
Unexpectedly, Ashley fell on a dilemma. Her insides debated, feeling somewhat both reluctant and eager to answer Anton Stanford's call. There was a small part of her that yearns to hear more of his voice but more than that she hesitated as she didn't know what to say nor answer if he ask her questions related to his sister. She won't surely answer him but what if he uses his intimidating voice to make her give in? That would be another story for her. What should she do? At that moment Ashley weighed her choice very carefully... Anton Stanford has never been close to her as their interactions are quite not frequent. Furthermore, since she meet him at the hospital by accident, she always felt uneasy towards him. Her gut sensed something unusual about to happen and that alone made her cringed at the mention of his name. What more if she faces him again? Her legs would definitely turn to jelly! Seconds later, she was determined to ignore him until the call would eventually ended to p

4 years later... "Mommy!" "Daddy!" The couple's door was about to collapse due to the twins' intense banging. Athena's eyes snapped wide open, startled with the noise. "Babe, the kids... 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
Trapped In Shackles Chapter 114 YOU MADE ME FEEL AMAZING
While Athena was being picked up by her grandfather, Terrence took different cars to the airstrip for the Stanford and Adams family. In two hours of waiting, their jet finally landed. The first to come out was none other than Trisha, his younger sister who camecd[ running down the iron stairs. "Oh my God, brother!" she shouted out. "You look different! What happened to you?" 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." Terrence watched her sister trying to divert her father's

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..."
Trapped In Shackles Chapter 112 THE ONE THAT DIED
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
Trapped In Shackles Chapter 111 FEELING THE AFTERMATH
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. "Mr. Stanford, do you prefer the ladies room now rather than the men's room?" "Miss Mills," Anton glared at her and spoke, ignoring her stunt. "I think I
Trapped In Shackles Chapter 110 HER REDEMPTION
It was around noon in the island where Terrence and Athena stayed. However at NY City, the surroundings appeared to had just gotten dark. In Stanford Building... 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! How fool are you to forget that he was the only person who has the acces

"From the start, I never like the idea of you getting close to anyone aside from me..." she said. "You chose to enter that school because of me and I feel secretly glad but seeing you surrounded by some..." she sighed, halting while fidgeting her fingers as she continued. "Hannah, from the very start, I know why she tries to get close to you. She developed a deep attraction towards you." "I don't dwell about the past. Don't take me wrong." She rea
