They had been on the run and nobody knew where they both were. Amelia had been our responsibility. I stood in the window and stayed at the whole city in my black dress. I had been mourning all day.I wished I spend a lot of time with my father. I wish I fekt his presence in my life. After a while, Anna joined me and she held my hands gently. “Williams, your father was a good man. You shouldn't blame him for what happened. He was blindfolded. Please. Find a place in your heart to forgive him,” she spoke.She exhaled deeply and continued, “I also need you to forgive me Elena even though I knew that I shouldn't have gave you up but I couldn't give you the life that you needed. I wanted you to have everything in the world. I was dying in poverty. You were sick Elena. That was the only way I could restore your health,” she explained and tears rolled down her eyes.

Chapter: Chapter 192Elena’s POV:I knew that I could keep concealing the truth fromNicklaus. It had already been confirmed. Nicklaus had the right to know. This is the best time to let him know. Tears rolled down my eyes, and I was not able to control them. "Yes, Nicklaus, Jason is your son,” I confessed, my voice cracking hard. Nicklaus was stunned, and he looked at me deeply in the eyes. “Why? Why did you keep it away from me? After all these years,” he asked, tears streaming down his face. I crossed my arms across my chest and sniffed, “Well, yes. I had to protect my son. I had to protect you from people like Sarah. You abandoned me. What would you have me for Nicklaus?” I spoke as he continued to sob.Tears rolled Nicklaus’s eyes, and he became emotional. He quickly found a spot to sit in so that he would catch his breath.“I had the right to know about it, Elena. Why did you keep such from me?” he asked.“I...” I began to stutter. I didn't know where to begin or what to say. I was in so much pa

Chapter: Chapter 191Nicklaus’s POV: My eyes widened, and I was stunned. That was when I knew that something was fishy. I checked the birthmark and mine, and it was exactly the same and in the same position.“This has got to be a joke,” I muttered silently. “Could it be? Could it be that Jason is my son?” I asked, but I shook my head and tried to brush it off. My blood and his blood were compatible. He is 5 years old. The exact time Elena and I divorced.Could it be that Jason is my son?” I asked myself the question repeatedly all night long. I didn't even get enough sleep. I remembered how he would smile at me. His eyes and his smile were similar to mine. His black curly hair. Noe, everything is beginning to make sense.If Jason is my child, why did Elena decide to keep it away from me? I kept wondering. I couldn't wait for the day to break so that I would confront Elena.Everything is beginning to reveal itself. I have to get to the root of this. I watched as Jason slept, and I made sure that he was

Chapter: Chapter 190Nicklaus lay on the hospital bed, but he was feeling uneasy about the whole situation. Anna saw him by the doorway as he struggled; she helped him out, “Nicklaus, you can't leave. You haven't fully recovered,”Nicklaus father arrived and was surprised to see Nicklaus leave. “I have to go help Elena. I want to be by her side,” Nicklaus spoke.“I am tired of being told what to do. Please get me out of here.”Mr. Coleman and the nurse agreed; they threw Nicklaus out of the hospital in a wheelchair. They got into the car, and after what felt like forever, they arrived at the penthouse.“Nicklaus walked in to see Zoey and Alex pacing around without Elena. He looked around, hoping to see her come out, but she didn't.“Where is Elena?”“She left with Sarah. I am still trying to track her location,” Alex said. Immediately, Nicklaus reached for one of my keys and rushed out of the penthouse. He reached for my car and zoomed off. He took his car tracker and tracked Sarah’s location.Alex, An

Chapter: Chapter 189I blinked my eyes open to see myself on the hospital bed. “Where is my baby?” I asked.“You have to calm down, Elena. The police are everywhere searching for Wave right now. We will get a positive reply in no time,” he said calmly. I shook my head and struggled with him to leave my hand as I got out of bed. “No, I can't sit here while my son is taken away from me; I have to find him. I am sure Sarah took my child,” I shouted.Nicklaus and Sam walked up to me and said, "Please Elena. Let's get home and wait for the authorities. You have to trust me on this, I assure you. We will find your son,” Nicklaus spoke, and I became calm instantly.“How can I go home when my boy is missing?” I cried out.I held onto Nicklaus, and my head rested on his chest as I sobbed. “I want my boy,” I cried out.Nicklaus stroked his hands through my hair. “He will be found; you have to trust me,” he spoke. “I don't want to go home. I want to wait here. I know Sarah will come back here,” I said. “It's fin

Chapter: Chapter 46Lillian’s POV:I slept, and when I woke up in the morning, the bright rays of sunshine filtered through the light curtains, falling softly across my face. It's been a week since I last heard from Jessie. For some time, I just lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling. It felt strange. too quiet. My body was rested, but my mind wasn’t. It never truly rested.The first thing I did was reach for my phone on the table. Jessie.I had been visiting, but I only spent time with Jake. She had not spoken to me, which made me very uncomfortable.I searched for her name, and my chest tightened. I had this sudden urge to hear her speak to me once more. We have been best friends since our first day in school when we were both 3 years old. 6:00 a.m.I exhaled slowly. It's too early to call Jessie. She would probably still be asleep and groan when anyone disturbs her sleep. I rolled out of bed and walked to the mirror with my bare feet. My face looked calm, but my eyes were still heavy. They felt em

Chapter: Chapter 45THE CONFESSIONThe word slipped out of Lilian’s mouth and fell into the room like a broken glass. Jessie looked at her in disbelief. Everywhere went silent immediately. They were seated beside each other facing the television. Lillian nodded her head, “Yes, Jessie. I kissed Alex.”Jessie froze.Not in a calm way. Her eyes widened in disbelief at first, then her lips parted as if she wanted to laugh it off. To say Lillian was joking, but she had always seen it coming. Jessie waited for Lillian to tell her it was a lie. But Lilian said nothing else. Her silence confirmed everything.Jessie stood up so fast from the chair, “You… what?” Jessie asked slowly.Lilian swallowed and inhaled deeply. “We kissed.”Jessie stared at her as if she were looking at a stranger. She couldn’t believe that Lillian would do such a thing so soon. "Wow," Jessie exclaimed. “Just wow, Lillian.”“It wasn’t planned,” Lilian rushed to speak up. “I didn’t go looking for it. It just happened."“Stop.” Jessie li

Chapter: 44… The confessionLillian’s POV:I stood in front of Jessie’s apartment door and pressed the doorbell. My chest felt tight, and my stomach growled. Coming here was supposed to calm me, but I still felt nervous as if Alex were here with me. I rang the doorbell again, and the door opened instantly. “Lillian!” Justin said, his face lighting up. Before I could say anything, he wrapped his arms around me in a tight hug. I laughed softly. “Hey, Justin,” I said, hugging him back. “I missed you so much.”“You were gone forever,” he said, pulling away and looking at me. I smiled. “Of course I did. I had work in Paris. And guess what? I brought something for you,” I said. That seemed to satisfy him, and he stepped aside and let me into the apartment. I could perceive the scent of spices and freshly cooked meat. “Lillian?” Jessie said as she walked out of the kitchen. I barely had time to respond before she appeared. She wiped her hands on the kitchen towel. “It's so good to see you,” she said, wrapping

Chapter: Another kissLillian’s POV:I woke up this morning when the morning sun rays through the light curtain of the hotel rested on my face. My head throbbed lightly when I remembered the incident of yesterday.The kids are with me and Alex. I sat upright with my eyes wide open and filled with embarrassment. How did that happen?One moment, we were standing close to each other, and the next minute, we were caressing each other like never before.Alex’s lips were on mine. It was warm and cold at the same time. This was supposed to be a contract. I was supposed to be his worker, but now everything seems to be changing.I remembered that I had to go downstairs for breakfast, and I was filled with regret. I couldn't face him. Not yet…I dragged myself out of bed, and I glanced at the clock. It was still early, but I needed to do something to distract myself.Packing? Yes, that would help. I pulled my suitcase from the corner and unzipped it. Clothes tumbled out in a heap. Many more dresses for dinners, jean

His cock became very hard, and she felt it in between her thighs.It felt so good that she didn't want to stop. She realised at that moment that she wanted every nig of him so bad, but when she remembered his deeds tonight, she pulled back in shock.What? Why did he kiss me? Does he feel anything for me?Alex's hands still rested on her waist, not letting her go. He stares deeply into her eyes as she is taken aback. Lillian’s mind started running with a lot of thoughts, but then she immediately pressed her lips back into his.His lips felt soft and smooth as she caressed them with her tongue, and Alex reciprocated. At first the kiss was soft, then he moved his hand to her hips and pulled her closer, deepening the kiss.Lillian had no idea what to do with her hands; meanwhile, Alex moved like a professional. He moved like he wanted her. She moved her hands up to his chest and felt his musc

Chapter: I felt his…Lillian hurried to the top of the stairs and slammed the bedroom door behind her. Her chest was rising and falling rapidly. She locked the door and pressed her back against it, sliding down until she sat on the floor with her knees to her chest.The image burnt behind her eyelids. Giorgio's lifeless eyes stared at the ceiling, and Alex standing over him looked calm and calculating.Her hands shook as she buried her face in them. The man whom she thought was a changed man. Whom she felt safe with just murdered someone.Tears rolled down her cheeks, soaking her palms. She had known Alex to be dangerous. From the moment they met: his ammunition, his bodyguards and the call.“Clean it up,” Alex ordered his men and went into the mansion. Life is going on as if nothing had happened.But everything had changed.A soft knock at the door made her flinch."Lillian." Alex's voice called out."Open the door."No.There was silence in the room. Then the knob rattled gently, testing the lock. He co
