After Julian was done with his work with Shane, he got up and turned to leave.

Shane was about to concentrate on his work again but Julian stopped and turned to him.

Making an expression like he almost forgot the most important thing, he spoke up, "By the way, you didn't tell me."

"Tell you what, Jules?" Shane asked, his voice irritated.

Shrugging it off, Julian asked his question with excitement, "When am I getting the chance to be your best man?"

"What are you talking about?" Shane asked appearing clueless.

"Don't pretend, okay?" This time Julian got irritated, "I am asking about your wedding. When are you two getting married?"

His words hit him differently. This time he got what Lilian was trying to say actually. What right she was talking about back then got clear to Shane.

But_

"What? Please, don't tell me you are still going to say you don't believe in marriage and all. You two have already wasted so much time. Don't drag it like this." Julian said sternly and Shane stared at

    "Why will you do that?"Lilian couldn't help asking. A little ago he left saying all those and now he was back and all ready for this."I love drama and challenging things."

    Simon was holding his breath when Lilian stood in front of him. Pulling an all casual expression, she voiced out, "What's with your look? Aren't you happy marrying the love of your life?" Lilian gave Evana a smiling look and then again turned to Simon.Shane got there and stood beside Lilian. For some reason, Simon looked somewhat familiar but he wasn't sure where he saw him. "You?"Gulping hard, Simon spoke up, "Sir, I am Simon Caldwell, a project manager of your company.""Oh, I see."That's why he looked familiar.Shane turned to Lilian smilingly, "Baby, you know him?"Evana was getting confused by the pleading look Simon was giving Lilian.Lilian stared at Evana for a moment and then spoke up, "Not really.

    Shane was lost in his thoughts as he walked to his car whereas Lilian stood there confused and turned behind only to find Simon walking toward her with long strides. Why is he here now? "Lilian, I am sorry. But please.." You don't need to hear the excuses or what he has to say for himself. His actions already spoke the truth in volumes.Lilian got reminded by her mind coldly. "I'm sorry, I guess you didn't get the memo. You have officially been removed from my life. We just became strangers who knew each other once. So, you can stop stalking me any time now." Without letting him complete, Lilian spoke up all casually. Simon tried to say something again but didn't get the chance. "If I could show you how awful you made me feel, you would never be able to look me in the eye again. Better you go inside. Your wife must be waiting for you." With that, Lilian walked away. Sorry! Lilian scoffed.A sorry wasn't going to make up for a bit of what he did to me. She holding all it in was

    When a waiter reached them, Shane and Lilian got settled on their seats again and Shane gave an order for food, something Lilian wasn't familiar with but she didn't say anything though. When the waiter left, Shane turned to Lilian. Thinking of something, he spoke up, "As you already know, I am Shane. Shane Lockwood, CEO of Lockwood Corporations." "Family business?" Lilian cut in but the next moment, she regretted it as Shane's expression got changed into an unpleasant one. "Well, it's true that it's my family business. But I didn't inherit the company because of this only. I had earned this title after many years of hard work. Getting the company just like that was not one of the things I was spoiled with. And my father still holds the highest position as the Chairman of Lockwood Corporations." Shane explained much to his irritation. He had always wanted to do something on his own. But because of his father's health condition and with an intention to put an end to the family disput

    Angel was sleeping peacefully beside Rose. Within just a few hours, both of them got mixed so well. Lilian thought as she stared at them smilingly. She tossed on the bed for hours but didn't get to fall asleep. Not wishing to disturb their sleep, Lilian got down from the bed. After properly setting the comforter on them, she walked out of the room. She closed the door behind her trying to make less of a sound. Thinking of what to do, she headed for the pool just like she used to do when she lived here. But instead of walking in the garden, she sat by the pool putting her legs into the water. She shivered feeling cold at first but she sat still. As she stared at the water of the pool, her whole life started flashing in front of her eyes and then there was just Angel. And now Shane. The smiling face of Shane appeared into the water. She smiled back but it got vanished when his voice came as well, "What are you doing here without sleeping?" making her realize he was there for real.

    Seeing Lilian silent, Shane asked again without breaking eye contact, "Answer me. Have you ever regretted it?"His tension mounted higher, the longer Lilian kept her mouth shut."I am asking you something. Have you?" Shane asked, desperate to get an answer."No. I haven't. Ever. Because I loved you as well. I was just afraid thinking it was one-sided." Lilian spoke up, her voice a little louder as if she was trying to hold it within but couldn’t. Shane also got silent hearing her. His heart started beating faster as the realization dawned upon him.Just because of their gap in communication, all this happened. They had already wasted so much time. So, though he was still angry with Lilian for many things, he couldn't ignore the fact that somewhere he was at fault as well.So, without grieving on the past that couldn't be changed, he would like to start afresh. He didn't want Angel to go through any family trouble. She already had enough of this.Shane cupped Lilian's face as he spoke

    "Shane, I know my words will be counted as meaningless now. I am late for years anyway but I am sorry. Please don't snatch Angel from me. I have none except for her and I won't be able to live without her." Lilian pleaded finding Shane silent. "Would you ever consider me in your equation?" Shane asked, his voice lacing with mixed of emotions. Why couldn't she just think of them together in a picture? Just like Angel who went on painting a happy family as soon as she found out about him. He didn't know what he would have done if Lilian had told him but for sure he would have liked to be given a chance to say his words at the very least. And somewhere in his heart, he knew he would have been happy and gladly accepted her. Only if she had just made it to speak to him, he would have been with her all the time. He wouldn’t have missed the time when Angel was growing inside her. The time must had been hard enough for her to handle alone but she chose it for her. She chose to deprive hi

    Thoughtlessly Shane walked ahead and then hopped in his car. But before revving the engine, he didn't know where to go actually. He called Lilian only to get his calls ignored. Well, it wasn’t for the first time, his calls were always ignored by her. Shane thought sadly.He was tired, his body demanding some rest but in no way his mind was up for that. He didn't know where did Lilian go nor did he know what actually was going on in her mind. A scary thought was bugging him but he didn’t entertain that.Instead, he guessed she might have gone behind Aiden. It seemed pretty considerable. He was her cousin and Aiden went being angry with her. And he knew how much he meant to her. Well, every one meant to her something except for him.She wasn't even ready to leave Vina alone in Manhattan. She seemed so concerned for her. But she didn't bother to think about him before disappearing from his life. Now she was most probably thinking of doing the same.No, Angel was in the picture. Being a m

    "You got to be kidding us. What are you even saying? Your daughter?" Julian asked bewildered.Nathaniel stared at Shane before he turned to Angel and then again at Shane. He spoke up joining the lines, "You mean to say you and Lilian?"Shane nodded, "Yes. Angel is our daughter.""What?" Julian seemed to get shocked, "You knew? Then why didn’t I alone know anything about this?""Stop it." Nathaniel let out a sigh and yelled at Julian being irritated. He then turned to Shane, "Where did Lilian go by the way?""I don’t know." Shane replied, his eyes still on the doorway. "Don’t tell me you are thinking of separating Lilian from her daughter," Nathaniel spoke up whatever came to his mind. He knew though Shane was angry at Lilian, he had searched for her. He knew that night Shane was with Lilian. But something happening like this didn’t cross his mind. But whatever he would never support Shane trying to separate a child from her mother."Angel is my daughter as well." Shane moved his gaz

    As Rose lead Angel to her room, everyone kept staring at them. When they were out of their sight, everyone turned to Shane and Lilian. Whatever Shane was saying was hardly believable but knowing him, he wasn’t a person to make stories or assumption like this. "Lilian, is this true?" Karen asked anyway and stood in front of Lilian. She had to confirm it from Lilian as well, "Whatever Shane is saying, is it true?" Lilian remained silent for a moment only to make Karen ask her again, "I am waiting for your answer, Lilian. Is it true?" "Yes." Lilian replied hesitantly. "I just can't believe this. Why did you leave back then? You should have told us." Karen spoke up again with so much excitement surprising everyone. Aiden, Willow and Elena were silent till now but Aiden spoke up this time, "Willow, are you coming with me, or do you want to stay here for now?" Before Willow could say something, Lilian spoke up, "Aiden?" Ignoring Lilian, Aiden spoke up, his eyes still on Willow, "I hav

    It was already afternoon when they reached New York. When the car got parked at the entrance of the Lockwood Mansion, Lilian stared at the proudly standing tall building and all around. Shane got out of the car and rounding, he opened and held the door for Lilian. Angel was sleeping peacefully on the back seat. Must be tired from the journey. Shane thought.He was about to say something but interrupting, Lilian asked, "Shane, can't we stay in a hotel?" She wasn’t being able to get herself ready to face his family all of a sudden. She didn’t think she would have to face them again. Period.Shane stared at her. He didn’t want to disturb her peacefully sleeping daughter. So, instead of uttering anything, he kept glaring at Lilian trying to relay his words. He couldn’t just get what the problem was with her. As much as he was trying to take it normal, she was just going on searching things to agitate him even more. Before Shane could say something, Lilian again spoke up, "You never kn

So, I thought you were just trying to avoid me and_""You can't just assume on your own. I had a meeting to attend. Leave that. Why didn’t you tell me when you found out about your pregnancy?

I didn’t know how you would have reacted knowing this. I didn’t want you to blame me about trying to trap you and all. Knowing your granny, I didn’t want to be in a forced relationship.
