All Chapters of After A One Night Stand : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

When Mr. Anderson came back from work, he went straight to Jade's room to see her. He was in such a hurry in the morning that he did not bother to see her. However, when he got to her room, he realized she wasn't there and became worried. He began to search for her, going straight to Max's room because he knew they had a good relationship, but she wasn't there.He had received a call earlier from Max, who told him he had left the country. He wasn't happy about it, since Max had earlier delegated someone else to go on the journey. He had thought Max would stay back and look after Jade.He had been really impressed with him lately, with the way he maintained a good relationship with Jade and always took care of her. It convinced him that Max was going to be a good father to his grandchildren. But now that he couldn't find Jade anywhere, he asked all the maids including Agatha, but they had no idea where she was. Going out, he met the security at the gate and asked, "Where's Jade?""I

TWENTY FOUR HOURS LATER JADEI opened my eyes and blinked a few times as I struggled to adjust to the light. I felt weak and my body was sore too.I looked around the room and became aware of my surroundings. I recalled what had happened the previous day and sat upright as I cried out, "My babies!"The door was pushed open at this time and a doctor came inside, a man in his forties.He rushed to my side and began to stroke my back comfortingly as I cried my heart out."My babies," I cried. "They took my babies, please help me...I need to get my babies back."I got off the bed at this point, ignoring the pain in my body. I began heading toward the door but the doctor held my hand and pulled me back as he said, "I will help you."I turned and stared at him, tears streaming down my face, "Will you really help me?""Yes," he replied."I was here yesterday and I witnessed everything that happened. No mother should be made to suffer what you suffered. In fact, no one has the right to take

JADE Left with no other choice, I began to run with my two children in my arms. I was very afraid because I knew that running on foot increased the chances of me getting caught.Anderson could put out a call to the security men at the entrance of the estate and instruct them to conduct a stop and search. How could Frank betray me at a time like this?After helping me get this far, he disappeared when I needed him the most. Was this all a plan to get me to rot in jail? Was he working for the Andersons and deliberately set me up? No matter what, I was going to die first before letting them take the two children from me.I suddenly stopped running and gasped when I recalled my jewelry. I had put them in a bag and hid them in the trunk of Frank's car. They were worth millions of dollars and Frank may have discovered them.I had made him believe that the bag merely contained my clothes but while I was in Andersons' house trying to retrieve my kids, he must have gone through my things and d

MAXI could not believe what had just happened. I stared at the mess that I learned was made by Jade and asked my dad for the umpteenth time, "Are you sure it was really Jade?"The previous day, after my dad took Jade's children from her and left the hospital, I felt really bad for her. I recalled how she had told me many times that she would rather die than get separated from her children.I was tempted to go back to the hospital and be with her, to wipe her tears and hold her in my arms, assuring her that everything would be fine. Yes, I wanted to make everything fine but after that, what next?I left home that evening, after seeing the children. My heart felt heavy and I needed to clear my head. I ignored the constant calls from Stacy and my dad as I played over everything that had transpired between me and Jade, from the first time she walked into my room at that club.I paced up and down while in my hotel room, trying to clean up my feelings. What exactly did I feel for Jade? She

JADEThe feel of water droplets on my face and the sound of babies crying forced my eyes open. I looked around me and was greeted by darkness.As the crying voices pierced through my ears, everything came back to me and I instantly sat up. I spotted Frank whom I had stabbed, a little distance from me, passed out.I realized he had crawled away because he had been closer to me when I fainted. I didn't know how long I was out for but I knew my children were hungry.The fact that their cries had not attracted anyone was a great source of happiness and relief to me. My clothes were considerably wet, so I sauntered to the boot of the car, giving myself all the strength the universe afforded me.I pulled out a gown from my bag and wore it over my wet clothes to protect my children from its coldness. I picked up the bag which had my pieces of jewelry and checked it, everything was still intact.I was afraid of what lay in front, so I took out one of the jewelry and hid it in my pocket. I wou
