Chapter 132 - Secret Weapon

"I'll definitely get your heart, Jerlina..."Jacquestried to pretend that she didn't hear it. But in the silence of the autumn night, where even the dogs and insects went silent for that moment, his voice, soft as a baby's breath, was heard as a rolling thunder in her ears.She didn't mean to let him know that she heard it, but she did, unconsciously. His eyes, sharp as a wolf's, bore a hole right into her soul. She felt cornered and marked by him. Her heart raced and her breathing got difficult."You're still on it even after I refused?" she asked with her voice now turned hoarse."Yes," his eyes softened. He extended his hand and his finger reached her forehead, but he stopped getting closer.Is it because he said he won't touch me without my consent?"So, prepare to be courted, my wife!" he said with a slight smirk.Jacques Once again felt that heaviness in her heart. The burden of his deep love...But she won't lie... In the corner of her heart, a small sprout of joy and pride rea

Chapter 133 - Exposed Manipulation

As Jacquesate her breakfast, she felt the excruciating pain in her entire mouth. She knew it was because of the impacted wisdom teeth and the dentist already advised her to do an extraction of the tooth a couple of years ago.But the thing is, she is terrified of dentists!She can barely hold on for routine check-ups, but anything more than that, she'd be terrified. A surgery? She'd die before she is given an anesthetic.She did her usual home remedies and ended up on the bed. Even after taking painkillers, it still hurt and she curled up on the bed.Where is Scarlett when you need her?Jacquesrolled on the bed. With how "curious" she was last night, she thought she'd visit in the morning.Should I call her?Jacquestried to get her phone, but then another bout of pain crippled her and she curled back on the bed.It's fine... It will go away in a day or two like always...She has this pain at times. The last time she had this pain was when she was held in the cabin. It was calm like th

Chapter 134 - Should I Give Her Up?

Emma... why did she bring up Skunky when Hank didn't try anything of the sort on her? Was she afraid Hank might hurt her? Even so...'Emma manipulates' – he remembered Jerlina's words.Doesn't it seem that way?Jeremy felt like the floor beneath his feet had slipped. His eyes became blurry and he almost fainted from the pain in his heart."Get out! Don't show your face to me ever again! If anyone knows about what we talked about here, you wouldn't want to know what I'll do to you!" Jeremy shouted at Ashley and she struggled to get up."I won't tell anyone... please leave my aunt out of this, please..." she begged as tears dripped from her face."Get out!!" Jeremy banged the table and Ashley stumbled her way out.After Ashely left the room, Jeremy leaned at the backrest of his chair and stared at the ceiling.Emma... since when did she become like this? What changed her?Should I investigate more?He called Jack. He's the one he has in Jennifer's (Emma's sister-in-law)? office as a spy

Chapter 135 - Getting Dragged

Bobby was mad at Jeremy. Charlie called him just some time ago to ask him what he should do about the squirrel. He said that she was too quiet and it didn't seem like she even ate lunch.Charlie asked Bobby to send Scarlett to check on Jacquessince he felt it would be inappropriate for him to enter her bedroom. All Bobby could do was roll his eyes and run to Jeremy's house.Inappropriate? What if she is in danger? What if she choked or fainted?Bobby was worried if she had locked that chain lock in her door if she was inside the bedroom. He imagined all kinds of worse scenarios involving that little squirrel.He called Jeremy to inform him, but that guy didn't answer his call. Deciding to break the door in case it is locked, he walked inside the house.There was no sight of her in the kitchen and other areas, so he walked to her bedroom. Thankfully, it was not locked.The room was dark and he switched on the light. He wondered if she might be in the bathroom, but it was unlocked. He w

Chapter 137 - Can't Let Go

Jacques Expected he'd let go of her but his hold on her wrist tightened and he glared at her."For that? No! I don't have to be there in person. Bye, Emma. I am busy.""...""I'm with... Don't call me back, bye."He ended the call.Jacquespouted seeing his mad-looking face.Well, why is he mad at me?The doctor called them in at that moment and Jacquesran inside. But the moment she saw that chair, her stomach churned."It's okay. I am here," Jeremy held her hand. He didn't seem mad now. She tried to get out of his hold, but he didn't let go.Jacquessucking in her breath, plopped on that chair of doom. The bright light that won't let you see around you, that mouth prop, that clinking, drilling, sucking noises...Ugh!Jerlina's ears felt stuffed, out of fear.Usually, she'd be answering to the dentist, but it was Jeremy who answered for her this time. He even had a copy of her dental records.How the hell did he...Well... He knows my mom's middle and maiden names. So...She just stared

Chapter 138 - I Love You

"I love you..."Jerlina's voice was meek but it seemed to be filled with joy. He didn't know what he should do next.His heart started to pound and his stomach hurt because of the sudden influx of happiness.She said what?"I love you sooo much..."Her hold around his neck tightened and his knees weakened. He stumbled his way near his car and leaned on the hood to ensure he didn't drop her.She really said it... She said~"...daddy!"WHAT!!Her next word interrupted his happy thoughts."Daddy... daddy...I love you..." she rubbed her cheeks on his and he let out a sigh.His back humped and suddenly she felt so heavy that he couldn't carry her.She's thinking about her dad?-----Jacqueswas watching her boy and her mother playing in the distance.And then the scene changed.She was sitting in the dentist's office fearing to get in for her procedure. Her heart started to race and she didn't want to be there. She was thinking of running away.At that time, the door opened and...Her dad w

Chapter 139 - Owner By Right

Mikhail was terrified. He doesn't like it when people mix up relationships for fun.If he is your lover, call him that. There are a lot of other words to describe that relationship. Just don't call him daddy if you're sleeping with him!Is that too much to ask of people these days?And of all people, Jeremy's wife is falling for this trend? I see they have a big age gap, but still...He is not your daddy if you're married to him!"She's high... Wisdom teeth extraction... And I am very tired, let me in," Jeremy said with a sigh.He could see terror dancing in Mikhail's face."Oh..." Mikhail let them in and closed the door. "Oh?"It still doesn't make sense! Ugh, whatever!Mikhail decided to let go seeing Jeremy being really tired."Daddy, is he your friend?" Jacqueswhispered in his ears once more as they were seated on the couch."Yes," Jeremy nodded, patting her head."Oh," she said, and then she was on her best behavior. Sitting with her knees together and her hands on her lap, she l

Chapter 140 - Making A Choice

Mikhail opened his mouth to say something but then emptied his glass without saying anything.Jeremy took a sip from his glass.His investigations faced a dead end with Moses Mosley. But there is no animosity between Jacquesand Moses. That only means that someone pays Moses enough to get her. If he finds out who that is, it would be easy for him to deal with them."She..." Mikhail let out a deep breath and Jeremy looked at him.Mikhail isn't loose-lipped and he has high alcohol tolerance. That means he means to speak to him about this."She has enemies, yes. But if the ones going behind her are them... apparently, she has no chance of survival." He took in another deep breath seeing Jeremy's very unimpressed face."Who are they?" Jeremy fisted his hands."Grandpa didn't say... I think he's scared of them too..." Mikhail looked at the floor in deep thought.Jeremy knows he is not lying. There is someone even Volkonsky is afraid of? Who might that be? Should I start my investigations fr

Chapter 141 - Heart Wants What It Wants

Jeremy bowed his head. It seems like that seems to be the rational move forward if he wants to have his love fulfilled. Everyone is advising the same and he thinks the same too.For him, the choice is obvious. Like Emma made the choice to get the man she loved, he will do everything to get the heart of the woman he loves too."What about you?" Jeremy asked Mikhail who fell silent.Although Mikhail's advice is sound, it did hurt Jeremy's pride to be advised by a younger guy."Me? You know me... I'd like to be at least forty before I even think about marriage-""So your grandpa still doesn't want to get involved with the Erling family, it seems," Jeremy probed. He had a hunch, but..."I am not interested in Rose! So whatever you heard or whatever you saw is all a lie. Erase it and don't ever bring that name up!" Mikhail got all defensive and Jeremy smirked.So, my hunch was right!"So her name is Rose, huh? I never knew..." Jeremy was proud of himself to see Mikhail squirm realizing tha

Chapter 142 - No One But Her

"Ah, never mind," Jeremy then waved his hand.If they are connected with Royal families, they must have been given a lot of titles. And those titles won't bring her any danger like he does."Money? Did they leave much?" Jeremy questioned. "Did they go bankrupt or owe someone?"Now that would bring troubles."That..." Mikhail took a deep breath. "Hamiltons never owe anyone. From my understanding of what grandpa said... Ms. Hopkins is entitled to a lot of money... I mean she might be richer than you... I mean your Fitzgerald wealth. But if you return, you will be easily a billionaire as a reigning monarch. There really is a stash of treasure..." Mikhail stopped seeing Jeremy, not listening to him anymore.Jeremy sank into his thoughts."Any other heirs... illegitimate claims?" Jeremy looked at Mikhail.It is not impossible for claims to be heirs arise when large inheritance is involved. And one cannot ignore the possibility that the Hamiton Lords had kids out of marriage. Can one such k
