All Chapters of THE ALPHA'S SECRET BABIES : Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Asher's POV Rylee and Liam got inside, while me and Jasmine trailed behind. It was something of deep concern and they were here to show their support. Truthfully, everything that was going on currently is scaring the shit out of me, but I didn't want to be perceived as a weakling or rub off my bad energy on Jasmine. She too was having a hard time with the situation, adding mine to it was like pouring a bucket of salt into her raw wound. It would make her break down, and if we must pull through, none of us needed that ill luck. "Babe, are you okay?" Jasmine tugged on my arm, barely sparing me a glance as she went for the knob. "Yeah, sure." I almost screamed in my attempt to make my words sound believable. Even though my eyes were filled with a river of tears, it was easier to fool her as she wasn't looking at me. "The place is exceptionally quiet, where are the kids?" Rylee inquired. She was right, and it sent shivers down my spine, not like Sebastian would get in here and grab

Jasmine's POV "The case has been adjourned." That was the first thing I said to Rylee immediately after I got into her house. I didn't know if to be relieved that it was paused momentarily or not. This was the first sitting and I was already feeling succumbed. It was overwhelming. "Come here, babies," Rylee took their hands, "Please, make yourself comfy, girl," She said to me before she led the kids upstairs, leaving me by myself.Rylee wasn't present in court today because she had an emergency, but Liam had to suspend work to be with us and render his support in every way possible. When the judge paused for the day with so many deliberations to make, Liam had driven us to his house instead, as Asher and himself would be meeting the lawyer in charge and a few other people necessary for the case. To them, winning was the only choice, and I hoped it turned out fine... Sincerely. The cute couple had offered to take them in pending the duration of the court case so that for the days

Asher's POV I popped the lid from the bottle of beer I was holding and took a greedy swig. Lately, nothing seemed to go as planned, it was like the city had turned against himself and Jasmine. "Are you good?" Liam demanded, yet to uncork his bottle. "I guess," I scoffed and found solace in yet another gulp of my beer. This was the second bottle I was having in less than thirty minutes and Liam was yet to take his. After the sitting earlier today, he suggested that we hang out in a different place, not just my place or his. And so far, I doubt the benefit of the idea, because we just stared at each other and barely hummed. "Let's talk about something else," He tried to get me in a better state. I doubt that I would find interest in any topic that wasn't centered on winning the damn case or driving a knife through Sebastian's throat. Moon knows that if I as little as met the asshole in a different setting other than the courtroom, one of us would go six feet below... I might be g

Asher's POV Jasmine was in a cubicle and so was Sebastian as they were done giving their statement before the judge, lawyers, and the hundreds of people in the courtroom. The paparazzi were outside, awaiting the final verdict of the judge. Those seated in the courtroom recorded every moment even when advised not to. "Dear goddes," I whispered, holding the frail hands of the kids that were sitting beside me, Emily and Ethan. Also seated beside me were Rylee and Liam, as they came to show their support on the last day, hoping it would turn out fine. "Based on the evidence presented to me and this honorable court of law..."My heart sank. It was like I died from anxiety a thousand and one times. Liam reached out to me, stroking the back of my suddenly sweaty hands and encouraging me to put myself together. "You'll be fine," He whispered words of assurance to me and Rylee also patted my shoulder lightly, offering her support. My forehead was creased with sweat, and my neckline was s

Asher's POV "Hey, babe," Jasmine called from the bathroom. "Yeah?" I answered, neck deep into work. It had been freaking long days since our victory in the court case, and everything seemed peaceful... Like back to the days there was never a Sebastian, and I only hoped that it would remain that way all of my lifetime. "Have you noticed Ezra lately?" She stepped out of the bathroom as her footsteps got louder. I was working on the website I was building and barely glanced at her. She had an awkward smirk on, so I suspected that we were on the same page when it came to Ezra. "What do you mean?" I scoffed like I was absolutely ignorant. I only hoped that he wouldn't return home one spring break with a basket full of his cubs. Once again, I returned my full attention to work. Liam was true to his words and had helped out with part of the bills to build the website and stand on my feet solely.After the court case, my previous workplace got back to me, with a good excuse that I coul
