2024-10-29 19:42:56I park my car in front of the hotel that Jayden had agreed on meeting me after dropping off Ryan to his new school.
This is it. I'm finally going to find out about my son. I take a deep breath before getting out of the car and handing my key over to the waiting valet.I walk inside where I'm directed to the reserved table, making me confused. I find Jayden enjoying drinking his usual brandy as he looks down at his phone. He stops using his phone when he notices us and stands. He asses me from my head to my dress clad body to my feet and lifts his eyes to me in amusement. He pulls a chair away, and I sit without thanking him."Wow! Who would have thought Jada Costa would wear a dress willingly?" He says, still amused, and I find myself letting out a smirk, but a file next to him catches my eye, reminding me why he's here.Jayden hasn't changed in the slightest since the last time I saw him, which was two weeks ago. I look at his blue tight shirRelated chapters

JAYDEN'S POV"The team misses you, man. Couch was disappointed at first, but he got over it." Dylan says before gulping down the vodka shot. I look at the dancing bodies in front of me, trying not to think about anything. I had come to the club to clear up my mind, but I bumped into Dylan. After I left the team, I had never contacted anyone else since I was engrossed in finding Leo's killers, who turned up to be the people I trusted enough to be around Leo. My grip on the glass intensifies before I feel it being taken away. I look up to find Dylan looking at me with what I imagine to be pity. Irritation grows at the same time. I want to hit something so bad. "What?" I bark at him, and he scoffs. "You've changed, man. You used to be this cool, easy-going Jayden. You used to be the cool basketball star." He says, and I feel my features harden, and for the first time, he looks at me differently. "I'm not that Jayden anymore. Do

JADA'S POV I told Ryan the truth two weeks ago, even after knowing three months ago. I didn't know how he'd react because he had always known his real mother didn't want him his whole life. How was I supposed to tell him? Hi Ryan, I'm your real mom. Sorry?I told him, and he had an open mind. We hugged, but after the hug, he ran off to his room, and I could hear him cry. "Jada..." I hear the voice of my soul tormentor call. I look at her and let out a breath. "Hmmm?" "You didn't answer my question. Did you tell Ryan about your condition?" She asks, and I let out a breath, then smile thinking about yesterday night. "Yes, I did. And I think it brought us closer." I reveal making Dr. Amanda curious."How so?" "He's happy. He said he's always wanted a sibling." I say laughing at Ryan's face. "What about Jay?" She asks, writing down, and for a second, I get annoyed. These are some of the rea

"Did Marcus find anything?" I hear Jayden ask someone on the phone who I assume is Sydney. My phone rings, and I pick it up without checking the name. "Costa.""Jada, I can't trace any Ivy Armstrong. Every information has been erased from the database." Cole says, making me puzzled. "You said earlier on that she didn't exist until six years ago." I say recalling the information as I try to piece everything. Cole hums as I can hear keyboard keys being pressed frantically. "Damn." Cole says. "What?" I ask suddenly alert. I feel Jayden move closer to me until his arm encircles my waist. I shrug him off and move. I need to have a clear head. "There's someone blocking me, and he seems good. Mike and his team want to help. I've sent him everything they'll need. Sorry." Cole says, and I nod, not caring that he can't see me. "Just find the bitch and report to me." I say frustrated before ending the call. "Sydney's men have Julia." Jayden says making me turn towards him. "Why are you sh

As soon as we landed, I switched on my phone and gave Joey Dan Hart's phone number and the other information I had. I went to my most recent calls and selected Cole's name. "Hey, Jada." He sounded tired."Did you find anything?" I ask instantly. "Yeah. I was just about to call you. Ivy visited a hospital a few weeks ago with the name Cassy Waters." Cole says, and I hum in acknowledgment. "Guess you already know that. So I checked for the name Cassy Waters and found hundreds of them then star...""Get to the point, Cole." I say suddenly impatient. "Forgot you're always rude." Cole laughs. "Okay, so I found her. Turns out that Ivy Armstrong was Cassy Waters' stepmother, who died seven years ago. Murdered. Cassy left a month after her burial." Cole explains, making the wheels in my head turn. "Anything else. What I want to know is where she is with my son Cole. Not her bloody history." I say my voice raising. I feel my phone bei

Julia has been a tough cookie, but we eventually got her to talk when she was on the verge of death. I left Jayden behind to deal with her. 'Ryan is my only family. The rest were all killed by the Italians.' I remind myself when I remember Julia's taunting eyes. I can literally feel guilt trying to claw up my mind and heart, but I try everything to suppress it. Why should I even care? After all, my aunt's husband, who was also Julia and Julian's father, betrayed my dad to the Italians just because of his greed for power. The bastard didn't even know that he had just signed his death certificate. Too bad my aunt had to suffer his mistakes, too. That was the only information that we could get from Julia. The address she gave us was useless. "Did you find anything else?" I ask Cole immediately after he picks up the call. I hear him let out a sigh before he mumbles a negative response just like he did ten minutes ago. I'm getting even more desperate.

Sydney glares at Jayden, making him falter in his steps but continues walking to him. Sydney made it clear that no one should call him by his name during an operation since people could easily identify him. Or something like that, I wasn't really concentrating when he gave out that order. As for Jayden, this is the first field mission he's been on and doesn't know the rule or hasn't bothered to know. "Don." Jayden tries again, making Sydney raise an eyebrow. "Sir." I almost laugh at how unsure Jayden is. A car drives to us, making us all stop in our tracks and look at it. "Not again." Sydney mutters irritatedly, but his face shows amusement. Two women in leather attire and black four inch boots step out with guns. "Sorry we're late. Let's get moving, boys." Isabella says with a straight face as her Italian friend, Amelia, smirks and cocks her gun. Sydney walks to the them in large steps. "Always with the entrance, my love." Sydney jokes giving

"Where is she?" I ask angrily when I see Sydney. I'm holding Ryan's hand as I walk towards him with large steps. "Your FBI friend Mike has taken her to the FBI." Sydney informs me, and I continue looking at him expectantly, and he lets out a breath. "Where's Jayden?" I ask suddenly vulnerable. "He should be in hospital now. There's some people who work for us there who'll deal with him." He assures me even though I already know. "I should go to the hospital now. I need to check if Ryan and my baby are okay." I say, and Sydney looks confused for a while before the sudden realization dawns on him. "The fuck!" He shouts glaring at me. Sydney wouldn't want me to join them if he knew that I am pregnant. he almost lost his wife because of that."Please. We'll talk later." Sydney has been protective of me since he met me and helped me escape the Italians. "Izzy and I will drive you." He says after a sigh and we start walk

Isabella Kings has been nice to me for the past few weeks since I came back to LA even though I was rude to her before I went to Seattle. Her mother had asked for me to join dinner, and some days, some days prior to dinner, I found out about Ashton's betrayal and kid. "Bella. Is that dinner thing still on? Maybe it's time for your mother to meet my son. She's always complaining about me being alone." I say as we walk from a nearby grocery shop. "Really? Yeah. I'll tell her. She'll be so excited." She smiles, and I give her a small smile. I have decided to go back to Seattle in a week since Ryan needs to catch up in school after almost two months and Jayden's mother had been deadly serious when she told me that she didn't want to see me again. As for my unborn child, I'm 19 weeks long. I've stayed in the Kings' mansion since we found my son. Ryan had been silent for the first two weeks, but he started opening up, eventually making me let out a breath of relief. He had been silent an

ONE YEAR LATER JAYDEN'S POV "I'll really miss the three of you." I say, looking down at the three graves belonging to Jakob, Lillian, and Leonardo Williams. "I didn't know that I could feel at peace after your death, but in a way, you leaving me brought Jada to me." I say as I sit in front of the middle grave, Leo's. It had been my mother's idea to leave the space in between, and at the time, I disagreed, thinking how it was selfish to think that Leo would occupy that space someday. "You already met Clarissa Louisa Williams, my daughter." I say with a smile as I think of my daughter. She has my white blonde hair and blue eyes but Jada's facial features. She's beautiful. "And my son Ryan Costa Williams. They are the best kids anyone would wish for guys." I say just as I hear Ryan shouting for me. I immediately smile and get up. "Time for me to leave." I pat my trousers to rid off any dust. "I'll be back." I promise before turning and walking to

"Jayden. I need to tell you something." I start talking about an hour later of watching some crappy late night show that I didn't even understand what it is about. He doesn't respond, making me look at him. He's asleep. I sigh and turn down the volume, then stand and cover him well before sitting on the chair that I had previously insisted on sitting on. I decide to switch off the television after a while and look down at my phone. It's a little past one a.m. I miss Ryan so much. Jayden and I had talked to him hours ago, but I still want him here. I look at Jayden's peaceful face, sleeping and sigh. I want us to talk about the baby, but he needs to sleep and rest. It's like a heavy truth that I need to spit it out so that I can feel free. But it seems that I'll have to wait till in the morning. I stand and walk to the couch at the corner of the hospital room and lie down, and try getting some sleep. I've never thought about starting a family after Ashton, my parents and siblings di

Linda has informed me about the convulsions before she went into Jayden's hospital room. The first one started yesterday morning at around four a.m. I can see Sarah eyeing my stomach with curiosity but she dares not ask about it. And I really hope she doesn't. She treated me poorly last time I was here. "So, how long are you?" She asks looking ahead but I don't answer. I look down at my phone and continue my texts with Shawn. I really am changing. "Is that my grandchild Candice Martins?" She calls me by my birth names making me still and try to fight the urge to look up. "I know so much about you. Don't think that I'll just sit and see my son destroy his life because of some woman." Sarah says and I turn to her with a smirk. "That's the problem Mrs Williams." I start and I can see her eyes locked to mine. She has these beautiful brown eyes but one can see the sadness and void in it. She looks tired. "You don't have to love me for me to be with your son. You can take it easy, Jayden

"Jada, it's Sarah. I think we might need you here." Sarah says. "Why would you now need me after telling me to stay away from your family?" I ask with a scoff. "Could you come to the hospital then we'll talk about this. I had my reasons, and believe me, if I didn't want my son to get better, I wouldn't have called you." She answers, making me wonder what is happening to Jayden. "I'm in Seattle. I'm back at work, and my son just got back to school. I can't keep on disrupting my life because you can't decide if you want me there or not. I have a life Mrs Williams and I can't just stop it because you want me to." With that, I hung up my phone though I can feel my hand shaking.What happened to Jayden? I know Sarah has this large ego and wouldn't call me if nothing happened. Maybe I should call Mr Kings, his doctors can tell him what is happening. With that in thought, I pick up my phone that I had placed on the desk and search for Sydney's number, but it goes to voicemail. I try Isab
