Chapter: Chapter 65★★JAYDEN★★I Stood beside my father's bed as the doctor, who was called over spoke. "Madam," he started, looking directly at my mother who's eyes were teary. "He is paralyzed I'm afraid to say. I think he was poisoned, not in the last two days though, like a slow poison. Although i tried to detect the actual poison used, but it's a smart case, the person was so wise not to let him get to this state in a week or two." He sighed, wiped his face with his hand out of frustration as he was also confused. "I think it's the work of some sort of poison, since he never reacted earlier to this poison, it was impossible detecting it I'm sorry. You'll have to take him to Japan for treatment, some local temple i will direct, this poison is spreading slowly, but destroying more" he continued.I looked at my helpless father on the bed, his mouth is twisted, like one part is toothless, his neck bent to the side, he can only rotate his eyeballs in fear.

I put one hand on his shoulder and held his with the other, climbing on his feet, he gasp a bit with a smile, showing me ‘I'm ok’.The song went louder, He was looking into my eyes, making me feel guilty for some reasons. "Bella,""Hmmn?," I hummed as a reply. "Nothing," he said and smiled again. "I just feel so happy. Is it OK if i kiss you?," he asked again."Here... You mean right here? No. No don't do it," i looked at the crowd around, turns out a lot of people stopped dancing... Just staring at us, his parents and two more couples."let go." I told him, but he didn't. "Bella, we're not done dancing, are you looking are these people?, well don't. They are badlucks. Just don't want us to be happy. And you know-" he was about to say another word when his other woman came over and held his hand, directly removing Mine from his. "You've danced enough," she said.

Chapter: Chapter 63★★JAYDEN★★While my mother and cousins picked dresses for themselves, i admire the white dress on the couch. Thinking of how good it will be on Bella. My cousin was about to pick it and i winked at the designer with a smile. She started blushing... Still not understanding what i meant. I gave a look at the dress and raised my eye lid and brows, she picked the dress up and asked my cousin to go for another.Still smiling at myself, my mother spoke, "why are you smiling? Want to wear a girl's outfit?" She asked me. They all started laughing. I stood up and went to the porch to wait for that designer girl. Why she walked pass me shyly and awkwardly, she found me following her and speed up in her movement. Still i continued to follow her. "Wait." I ordered. She stopped in her movement."I would like to buy that dress." I smiled awkwardly at her, she must be thinking what and why i want it, like I'm some psycho."How much is it?" I asked her."Three hun

Chapter: Chapter 62(From now hence on, I will be adding some POV from Braden's side, hope you all won't have a problem with it...❤)★★BRADEN POV:★★ I took another sip of my drink while watching her back view as she walked out of the restaurant just the way I like it, just the way I like her, in her innocence and the most naive way. My only prayers is for her to be mine, our friendship may have not lasted, but I'm so sure will last. This is the first true love I feel i ever have, Jayden just have to surrender for my sake, we're brothers. I sigh in frustration still looking at the door she went through when someone stood in front of me, blocking my views. "I never knew you will be so disgusting someday." Iris said, she was wearing a seductive kind of outfit, tightly around her body. I was about to talk another sip ignoring her, she time a hold on the glass. "Such a man," she uttered with a smile."Braden, let's help each other. You know everything is

Chapter: Chapter 61★★BELLA★★ I Laid so frustrated on the bed, since the past two days Jayden left, no calls, neither have I heard from him. "Aish...!!!" I used my feet to jam the bed for the 6th time this evening. I think this to the only thing that can keep me sane, with the fact of me been damn frustrated.The door opened with him standing exhausted and leaned his hand on the door knob."I'm back." He smiled. Now's not a good time to vent my anger on him even though I really want to. I turned my face to the other side of the bed to hide my angry face. I could here his footstep as he approach me, I feel the heat from him as he leaned closer and whispered, "why are you not responding?""I'm sleeping Mr, have some respect." I replied then he burst out in laughter, "hahaha, you're asleep and dare to reply? You crazy spot." He tried to rub his palm on my hair but I hold him in mid air. "I told you I'm sleeping, don't you get it?!"

Chapter: Chapter 60★★BELLA★★ I woke up with my head spinning like a wheel. Jayden is not in the room, I walked out of the room, holding my half buttoned shirt. "Jay? Where at you? Jayden?" I called his name more than once, he did not reply. "Jayden?!" I called again, and still no reply from him, i decided to check the other rooms. Another room was opened half way through, I peeped through the open space, he was arranging his clothes in a bag"Where are you going?" I asked him with the most disappointing voice."Bella, you're awake?" He brought his lips closer to kiss my cheek, I shifted my face away from his reach. "Where at you off to? You haven't answered this question.""I need to go back Bella. I have businesses to take Care of, my company is also there. It can't be without it's CEO for so long!""And me? You're leaving me? Are you that heartless?" He held my shoulder and pulled me down, making me sit on the bed as he spoke. "Bella. soon, w

Chapter: *Choices*Chapter 118Vanessa's POV:For the past few days, I barely slept. Not really. Not with the weight of Andre’s arrest sitting like stone on my chest and the cold memory of his voice the last time we spoke replaying in my head over and over.Every breath I took since he was taken felt like a question without an answer. I kept thinking maybe if I closed my eyes, I’d wake up and none of this would be real. But reality didn’t bend for hope. I had tried going to check on him, but they said only his lawyer was allowed to visit and sent me back. I never stopped calling Stanley, who told me Andre was doing fine and that I shouldn't be worried, but I knew better than that. He was just trying to calm me, and yet my heart continued to be bothered, unable to shake off the feeling that he isn't well in there.When my phone buzzed that morning, I wasn’t expecting anything but another message from Stanley, or his lawyer saying they were still looking into it. That had been their routine.Instead, it

Chapter: *The Price of Truth*Chapter 117Andre's POV:I don’t make promises I can’t keep. And I sure as hell don’t let people think they’ve beaten me. When I saw Vanessa that night—choking, fighting for her life—something inside me snapped. That kind of fury, that helpless rage... it's not something you bottle up and forget. It becomes a vow. One I made right there on that floor as I held her trembling body: they're going to pay.I didn't sleep. Couldn't even close my eyes. I sat beside her like a guard dog all night, my arm never leaving her side. Her breathing eventually became soft and rhythmic, but every creak in the apartment kept me wired. When morning came, I was already dressed and ready to face the storm.******A day earlier, I had gone to the lab after receiving confirmed result from another hospital.Getting inside wasn't hard. I may have lost my position by my father's side, but I still had connections. Old friends. A few well-placed threats and some cash handled the rest. The technician was a jitte

Chapter: *DNA Deception-2*Chapter 116Vanessa's POV:I could still feel the echo of Andre's heartbeat when he held me earlier, his chest rising and falling like a fortress of calm around my chaos. But calm doesn't last. Not for someone like me."I need to go home," I whispered, gripping the strap of my bag tightly. My fingers trembled, but I refused to let him see just how much. "I need to clear my head."Andre looked at me with that unreadable expression again. Half stern, half something that looked too much like pain. "Vanessa, don't do this. You should be here. With me. Where I can protect you."Protect me. I repeated in my head.I wanted to believe him. But everything I thought was safe had twisted itself into something else. My pregnancy. The baby. The truth that was supposed to protect me had nearly shattered me. The bump was growing bigger by the day, and me? I was getting more attached to the baby, and I couldn't stand to watch it get hurt."I just need a few hours. I'll return tomorrow," I lied. "To b

Chapter: *DNA Deception-1*Chapter 115 The hospital room was tense, filled with the sharp scent of antiseptic and the unbearable silence that hung like a heavy fog. Vanessa sat on the edge of the hospital bed, her hands trembling slightly on her lap, her eyes wide and glassy with confusion. One minute she was talking to Louisa, and the next minute she found herself in a hospital with Claire here. She didn't know what had happened between the hours of her unconsciousness.The moment Andre burst through the door, he came to stand by her side, protectively, his jaw clenched so tightly that the muscle there ticked. Claire sat close to Vanessa, holding her hand, warming her up.The strange man who had walked in at the same time with Andre dropped a bombshell, claiming to be the father of Vanessa's unborn child. Andre turned to Vanessa with surprise-filled eyes."Vanessa," he asked, his voice breaking, "what the hell is he talking about?"Her breath hitched. It felt like the world tilted beneath her. How could she a

Chapter: *Blood Note*Chapter 114 The sky was a quiet painting of gold and lilac as the sun dipped toward the horizon, casting warm light over Andre Garcia's penthouse. There was no grand hall, no orchestra, no rows of white chairs. Just a wide porch wrapped around the front of Andre’s house, lit softly by hanging lanterns, white curtains, and fairy lights that twinkled like fireflies in the coming dusk. Andre stood at the far end of the porch, his hands clasped nervously behind him. He wore a grey suit, simple but perfectly tailored, the collar stiff with anticipation. His friend, Ethan, stood beside him—steadfast and grinning from ear to ear. His hand pressed on Andre's shoulder, giving him an occasional squeeze. Sarah adjusted her shawl beside Ethan, whispering something about how Andre had “finally grown up,” and they both chuckled. And then there was Stanley, arms crossed, face unreadable, but the faintest hint of pride rested in his dark eyes. He was a tough man to impress, but tonight, he could

Chapter: *Marry Me*Chapter 113Andre's POV:I woke up with a heavy chest-the kind of weight you feel when your world is starting to tilt out of its perfect axis. My fists clenched automatically, and I stared at the blinking screen of my phone. Message after message. Missed calls. Mentions. A dozen news alerts. All shouting the same line:"Garcia Heir Resigns for Pregnant Mistress."My jaw twitched. My thumb hovered over the article notification. I didn't need to read it to know what lies were spreading. An anonymous source leaked it. Not hard to guess who. Someone from the inside. Someone desperate.I gritted my teeth, eyes scanning the phone before I hit dial. Stanley. He instantly informed me that he'd successfully set the meeting with some people who liked my proposal, and that they were ready to invest after a meeting tomorrow morning. I was grateful for that. I'd always been scared to leave my father and go on my own, probably because I sold out the company name more than I sold out my own name. B
