Chapter 101: Pay For His Crimes

All the ladies were stunned. They couldn’t believe that Leila was hiding such a secret. With this, she could have easily cleared her name from being the liberated girl that the Yu family knew. But no, she did not choose to do so. What she chose was to protect the dignity of the man she relied on. “Leila, why did you protect him? You gave this to me before your flight to Paris. That was the time when your case against Julius was dismissed for lack of evidence. This much could have sufficed since it will show a history of him…”“…doing it to you,” Phyllis said with so much difficulty. “At the time, I thought he could help me and my mother to get out of the situation that my father put us in. He was pressuring my mother to give out almost all of my mom’s assets. A lot of the executives in the company also sided with him. They even sold their shares to him. The partnership with the Yu family is something important for my mom’s career… I can’t ruin it…”“Plus… I have come to like him… B

Chapter 103: Don’t Do It!

Taylor, I’m telling you, stop being so stubborn!” “Just drop me off at the hotel, I’ll be fine.” Annoyed, Chase slowed down and stopped near a hotel by Lieren Bay. They’re currently on the way home after a quick dinner with Laura and Theodore. However, since Theodore and Taylor had a small argument, it did not last long. And the initial plan of Taylor staying at Laura’s house is now scrapped. “You can stay at Grandpa’s mansion if you want.” “Or you can just go home to Uncle!” Chase kept on giving suggestions to his stubborn friend. But Taylor just ignored him. He glanced at his phone and saw a text from his friend, Zacharias Lohr. [Phyllis is home. She did not go out today.] [Why?] “I know you’re just going to see Leila, Taylor.” “Let the girl heal. Don’t be another asshole who will ruin her peace!” Taylor got a hold of a bag of toiletries and sleepwear that Laura initially prepared for his stay. Taylor briefly glanced at his friend and lawyer, Clark, who i

Chapter 104: Take Back What’s Mine

Warning: R18 content ahead! The kiss they shared made their bodies hot despite the cold sea breeze. Taylor’s topless body felt so warm as she snaked her arms around his neck. His calloused hand crawled inside her maxi dress. “Ahh…” she moaned arching her back. Her seductive moan caught Taylor from sinking into temptation. Leila’s not well. He pulled his hand back from her dress. “Leila, you’re still recovering. I’m sorry I was not in my right mind.” He patted her shoulders, feeling the coldness of her skin. Her face looked expressionless. Nothing about the passionate kiss they shared changed her blank eyes. She hung her head low, avoiding his eyes. “Let’s go inside, it’s cold here.” He guided her inside the cabin from the main deck. The yacht that Theodore bought Leila was huge. They passed by two cabins already and there’s still so much room. On the way to her room, Leila was eerily quiet. She hugged herself while walking in front of Taylor. “Where’s Theo’s men? I he

Chapter 105: It’s More Dangerous Here

“Did you really have to leave Leila?” “You locked yourself up in your atelier for a whole month and then you’re leaving?!” “What’s the point of finishing all your pending dresses when you’re already leaving for good?!” Laura continued to nag Leila as she watched her daughter pack her suitcase. “Mom, I’m only staying in New York for a while.” “I’m not moving there for good. I have a client that I need to dress up for a wedding there. It’s a grand wedding so I need to be overseas to get her correct measurements,” she reasoned. “You can get the measurement and finish the work here! What’s the use of your atelier if you’re not gonna use it?!” “Mom… I just want a new scenery…” “We have a lot of rest houses in the province! You can get a new scenery there!” “Besides, what is there to see in New York?! It’s all just buildings anyway, it’s the same here!” “New York is not a safe place to travel in! You could get in danger!” “Mom, I believe it’s more dangerous here.” “…” With th

Chapter 106: Just Jet Lag

Dumbfounded, Leila couldn’t help but wonder why the old lady said so. “Oh, I think you’re mistaken. Theo’s my stepdad, Amanda.” Amanda squinted her eyes, carefully observing Leila’s face. “No. It can’t be!” “You have his eyes!” “Also his smile!” “You can’t fool this old lady into believing otherwise. I watched that kid grow up, there’s no way I can be mistaken,” Amanda added. With a bright smile, Amanda tapped Leila’s hands, “Let’s go up. I’ll show you your dad’s apartment here.” “Sure, let’s go!” She answered, not paying any more attention to what Amanda said about her stepfather. They entered the lift with the luggage in tow. The whole ambiance of the boutique condo is cozy and warm. A lot of beautiful paintings were also hung on the wall, which made the place more appealing. So far, she was impressed. She couldn’t wait to see the unit that she’d live in for the next few months. DING! The elevator opened on the top floor of the building. On the whole floor, she could

Chapter 107: Just Hungry

Dressed in a comfortable black pleated dress and a pair of nude sandals. She brought her workbag with her so she could give the client a rough sketch for whatever they may discuss. “Darling, I’ll just go to run some errands. I’ll leave you here now.” “Don’t worry about me and go do your thing, grandma.” Amanda smiled. “Well then, I’ll get going now.” Leila waved at Amanda goodbye before she went inside the coffee shop. She was still 10 minutes early so she went up other the counter to quickly order a drink. “Good morning, I’ll have a sea salt latte please,” she ordered before passing her credit card to the cashier. “Good morning, ma’am! I’ll get that ready for you!” Upon getting a receipt and her card back, she went to find a seat near the window. The whole street is bustling with people coming and through. It’s a busy Wednesday morning. “Leila?” A beautiful woman in a pink A-line dress approached her table. Her short hair was straightly cut under her ears, framing her sma

Chapter 108: Take Responsibility For It

With only her working on the dresses, Leila decided to start early. Her staff would make the whole process efficient, but right now, she prefers to work on it alone. It helps to keep herself busy and avoid thinking unnecessary things. She has completely detached herself from life in Lieren City and focused on working. The events that transpired in the last three months have been extremely stressful. It took a toll on her mental and physical health. Her hand was restlessly sewing on the soft satin pinned on the mannequin. When she is absorbed in her own space, she forgets everything and just continues to work like a robot. “Leila!” She paused. Amanda stood on her side, her hands on her hips, furiously glaring at her. “What are you doing with yourself?! It’s already three in the afternoon and you haven’t touched the food that I’m bringing you!” “Look at you! You look so thin!” “It’s been two months since you moved here and you did nothing but work!” “I rarely even see you

Chapter 109: Feel The Bump

“Leila, I can already feel the bump!” Amanda excitedly stroked her belly as they rested in the living room, watching some TV. “What? I can’t even feel it yet!” Leila laughed at Amanda’s remark. Amanda has been taking great care of her since they got discharged from the hospital. A week has passed since the day she found out about her pregnancy. ‘I never knew such news would forever change my life.’ She looked at her tummy, still seemingly flat and slim. ‘I have to be strong…’ ‘I’m not only living for myself.’ ‘I am going to be a mother.’ Just the thought of her being a mother made her extremely fearful and happy at the same time. She touched her tummy with a gentle smile. The way Amanda has been taking care of her made her look forward to the coming months of her pregnancy. “Amanda, do you have kids?” She curiously asked. Amanda’s hands paused. A melancholic smile curd up on her lips, “I don’t.” “Is it your choice not to have one?” “Or…” “It’s my cho

Chapter 110: It’s Better If She Settles Down Here

Taylor’s eyes lingered on Leila’s. Leila tightly squeezed on her pink halter-neck midi dress. Meeting Taylor here in New York greatly shocked her. Who knew that he was related to Stacey’s brother? “Bro, how did you know Leila?” Asked Samuel. Taylor only smiled, “We’re very close friends.” “Right, Leila?” “Yeah, sure.” “My grandma and I will go to our table,” she hurriedly said as she ushered Amanda to their table. “Hi, Grandma Amy. I missed you so much.” Taylor greeted the old lady with his cheeky smile. Amanda’s eyebrows darted up. “Taylor, you naughty kid, stop playing around.” Seeing that the two know each other, Leila whispered, “Grandma, you know him?”’ “Yeah, your father introduced him as a business partner.” “Don’t get too close with that guy. He’s a lady’s worst nightmare.” “He plays around so much that he probably doesn’t know if he has a child.” Amanda snickered, “Come along, darling. Don’t let that boy get close to you, okay?” As the two ladies whisper
