Chapter 230 - James’s plan

James stopped the live video and took a deep breath.He was not satisfied with just that. He wanted to toss Alice in jail for at least a few years.For that, he needed more evidence against her. He must disclose that she had drugged Mariana before. It was his secret weapon. He would only take it out later in court to catch them off guard.He reluctantly called Liam and asked for his opinion.Liam was already keeping an eye on his actions.Liam told him to send the waiter to him. He would interrogate him as possessing a banned drug was a bigger crime than spiking a drink.James followed Liam’s advice. Liam was the expert, after all.Liam then asked him to keep an eye on Alice.Since Alice had hit a dead-end, she was likely to take drastic action. If caught red-handed, she would be doomed.Following Liam’s advice, James thought hard and kept a watch on Mariana’s ward.He sent one of his subordinates to follow Alice discreetly.James kept himself updated on everything Alice was doing.

Chapter 232 - News and punishments 2

Liliana gave Jonathan a quick kiss on his jaw and continued.“To secure her position, Vivian went to the Aprices and congratulated my father on having a talented daughter who always scored “A+” and asked him about his plans to celebrate my being a Valedictorian.”Jennifer exclaimed, “What?”Mariana gritted her teeth, “That’s why I hate her so much. She was the first person I wanted to take revenge on. But Lil let her go.”Jonathan asked fearfully, “What happened then?”Liliana shrugged, “On the pretext of going to the bathroom, I wore that body shield. After Vivian left, Lester got one of his bodyguards to find him the most painful whip and personally whipped me until he was sweating and tired.”Mariana trembled in rage, “Rose had her thrown to the room and forbade them from treating her wounds or calling a doctor. Dad went to rescue her.”Liam asked, “The clip about your father rescuing her - was it the same?”Liliana nodded, “Yeah. I never went back to Aprice Mansion after that.”Sh

Chapter 233 - His confession

No one pried on the details, and everyone left in the evening.James was not aware of his drunken rendezvous with Mariana. He had tried to talk to her the entire week but had not mustered up the courage.This time, aware that Mariana was upset about something, he stayed back after everyone left.“Mariana,” James softly called.He was too scared to call her name out loud.“Yes!” She stoically replied, not knowing what to say.“Are you alright?” James gently asked.“How do I look?” She remarked instead.“I am sorry!” James sincerely said.“It’s alright!” Mariana said. She did not know what else to do with his apology.“It will never be alright,” He involuntarily murmured loud enough for Mariana to hear.“I am still pregnant,” Mariana told him out of the blue.“What?” James was shocked and walked in front of her to check if she was being honest.“I said I am still pregnant,” Mariana repeated.James’s shocked face turned into pure delight.Since that night, she saw his happy expression fo

Chapter 234 - Her decision

Mariana continued to hold James.She was trembling, and he provided the emotional support she needed.“I have never thought past your revenge on what happened abroad.”Mariana confessed after a long time.“I never expected anything from you. Because in my eyes, you were just taking revenge. I was a nobody to you, and you were not obligated to care about me.”“I never saw past that. I never tried to get to know you or understand you.”“When I saw you kiss Alice, or when someone sent me a photo of two of you kissing while you stood me up for our appointment that day, I believed it without second thoughts. I was not heartbroken, just humiliated.”“That day, I wanted to clarify matters with you. Talk face to face in a calm and non-urgent environment, and be open. Whatever was going on, I did not want to drag that any further.”“But when I got the picture, I felt so humiliated. And so stupid for expecting you would give me that basic respect.”“I was leaving when I ran into Jacob. And you

I am not sure if I should say it out loud.”Old Madam Preston did not like her pretentious gesture and remarked politely, “If you are conflicted, dear, maybe you should not have brought it up.”Jessi was speechless.

Chapter 238 - Gay - 1

When everyone was seated in the living room, Liliana gathered the kids.She did not want to be the one to explain what ‘gay’ meant, so she called them when Jonathan, James, and Mariana were there.Jonathan was always better at explaining awkward stuff to the kids - like their bedroom activities.The three kids, aware they would be getting a new lesson, gathered around.Liliana went straight to the point, “Have you guys heard the word gay?”Jonathan looked at her quizzically and shook his head. He could vividly see that she was unsure how to explain, so she gathered them around him, Mer and James.Mariana was excited. She always had fun teaching new stuff to the kids. It made her think about things from a new perspective.James did not know why they were explaining such stuff to the kids. It was not his place to meddle, so he kept mum.Nathaniel explained, “One of the meanings is happy. I did not read the other one because Aunty Jen said if I see the word sex, I should stop reading.”J

Chapter 239 - Gay - 2

Mariana answered, “No, honey. They are just normal people from everywhere like you and me.”James chimed in, “For example - if Mariana and I get married - we would be a straight couple - husband and wife. If Liam and I get married - we will be a gay couple - husband and husband. If Mariana and Jennifer marry - they would be a lesbian couple - wife and wife.”Kyle nodded, “Okay, so gay, lesbian, or straight depends on whether you want to marry a boy or girl.”Mariana nodded, “Yeah, more or less.”Nathaniel asked, “Does that mean you can change whether you are straight or gay or lesbian anytime?”Liliana answered, “No. People are generally attracted to boys or girls. Very rarely, they are attracted to both. So, it’s not interchangeable.”Joyanna asked, “What does attracted mean, Mommy?”Liliana answered, “Do you know what I told you about kissing?”Joyanna nodded, “We can not kiss anyone on the lips because we are six years old, not babies. If we want to kiss our family members, we can
