All Chapters of His Unwanted Bride (Married by Mistake): Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Adrian woke up the next morning and visited all the orphanage homes in New Jersey. Millions of dollars went into this action and he requested that in return, they all pray and wish his dear wife, Ava Leon and his unborn baby a happy existence on the other side. He felt happy. He would decide before the next year's remembrance if he would adopt two kids, a boy and a girl whose age would be almost what his unborn baby would have been,if he were born. Adrian got back to work again. Within the last three years, the Lester business has tripled. Adrian focused on making the conglomerate economically stable than he inherited it. On this particular morning, three days after the yearly remembrance of Ava Leon, Adrian was walking briskly out of his office for a meeting with the board members when Clem informed him that someone wants to see him and according to her, it's important. Adrian waved those words aside and told Clem “I have more important things to do,”and went towa

For the rest of the day, Adrian couldn't concentrate on anything. The meeting was done haphazardly. His mind kept drifting to the woman that visited him earlier. He would have gone to see her already but he has a few investors to meet that evening. If he could make a wish in this life, is to have Ava Leon again. Just for an hour and he would kneel before her and ask her to pardon him. He just wants to make it up to her and get her forgiveness. He was ready to acknowledge her as his wife and go to the ends of the world with her. If only he could see her again, if only… He attended an important stakeholders meeting and was surprised when he met Patrick Connor with a man that seemed familiar to him. Patrick Connor has become a distributor of technological materials, an upcoming company that has a great potential of becoming something big, if investors choose to partner with him. Few years have passed, and he couldn't reconcile with his friend again. He missed h

Elsie Blake was creating a fuss. She wants to go with her momma and Santiago said she could come along. Reluctantly, Charlotte let her go with them. The latter was too addicted to her niece. When they got to the company, Patrick Connor saw the president walk in with a little girl of about three years or older and another woman followed, wearing long curly hair. He was excited. He came back with his family, he guessed. He prayed silently that everything would work out well for him. As Santiago sat behind his swivel chair, he pushed the profile before Aurora “A young company with little assets. Perhaps that's why his file was removed in the first place. But I believe in fairness Aurora, especially new businesses who need our support…” he was saying. Suddenly, Aurora's face went pale when she saw the name. Patrick Connor? She looked further and saw his passport. He's Adrian's friend. This man stood by her momma when her Papa died. She heard that he got into a f

Patrick Connor smiled. The table has turned. Now,it's Aurora who doesn't want to know or hear a thing about Adrian. She doesn't even want him to mention his name. He hopes he won't be caught in the middle again? He'd learnt from Adrian and he wouldn't get in the middle again. Knowing that Ava Leon was still alive was enough compensation for his estranged friendship with Adrian. “As you wish, Aurora,” he replied. He would just go along with her. Her life with Adrian and how she wants to pilot it after now, is none of his business at all. “Tell me, why did you leave your former job?” Aurora asked. She knew about the fight between him and that friend of his, but she isn't expecting them to fall apart. “We all want to grow, right? I want to be able to stand on my feet. There isn't anything else besides that” Patrick lied. She doesn't have to know anything else. “Hmmm I believe you with a pinch of salt” Aurora teased. Since he doesn't want to say anything abo

Adrian paused and sighed. Did he have something else to say to him? He turned to glance at Patrick and saw his eyes welled up with tears. They both stared at each other, eyes moist and cloudy. At that moment, they didn't say a word but their eyes did the talking. Two friends, lost their bond and were ready to mend it back “I missed you, Adrian” Patrick stuttered and took a long strides to him and they both hugged each other tightly. Adrian sniffled and muttered apologies to Patrick. Patrick just kept sniffling. He held his daughter in a hug and now,he was holding him in a hug. He wants to tell him that Ava is alive and that his daughter is a beautiful girl but he cannot. He had promised Aurora. He cannot go back on his words. But he has no grudge against Adrian anymore. The person for whom he was mad with him was still alive, beautiful and attractive. “I missed you more and I thought I would be alone again without you. I lost Ava and my unborn baby, I almos
