Chapter: CHAPTER 321HUDSON'S POV“Angelina Rodriguiez.” Val whispered, “Angelina Rodriguiez, our Angel.”“Yeah,” I agreed softly, my eyes falling back on Val as I watched her smile fondly at the sleeping child just beside us in a crib. My heart warming as I took in the view- my queen staring at my angel.My queen… she had to be the most beautiful woman in the world, right? Cause how could she not be? I mean, look at her right now, it’s like she’s glowing. With this warm light all over her despite the tiredness at the edge of her eyes.She still looked so beautiful, so warm and strong.The strongest woman I have ever seen.Independent, smart, beautiful, elegant in every sense! An amazing mother too, birthing and raising 3 kids all alone for 5 years. Running an entire company by the side, while still looking so fit!A damn sexy ass boss, God!I could feel my heart swelling with pride the more I stared at her unsuspecting self. Taking in the artwork the heavens decided to bless me with… I was so damn lucky.

Chapter: CHAPTER 320HUDSON'S POV“Our new guest has arrived!” The nurse gushed, pushing its wheels just beside Val. Where I had been occupying before now.“Awww, how precious!” Nanny Beth cooed softly, moving to towards it. Everyone doing so too, all except me. I just stood by the side, smiling as everyone got a view of our fairy.As if feeling everyone’s gaze, our baby stirred in her bundle. Her soft cooing’s filling the air, and getting several rounds of awwn from both Val and Nanny Beth. The rest just smiled, especially the men. James and Henry, whose eyes were already brimming with unshed tears.And as for the kids, “Is that… is that our baby sister, mommy?” Miley’s soft voice reached my ears, “Is that my baby sister?”“She’s so small,” Aby joined, her big eyes twinkling as the baby was lifted out of the crib and gently placed in Val’s arms.“And so shining,”“And pink!” Miley and Miles whispered at once, both of them lost in awe of the small being now brought directly in front of their eyes.“A tiny

Chapter: CHAPTER 319HUDSON’S POV“The kids are safe! And so is Nanny Beth” I assured Val, trying to explain.“We had taken two cars, remember? We took two cars, mine and your Papa’s, because you couldn’t sit at the front due to pregnancy and we couldn’t all fit at the back seat with the kids. Me, you, your Papa, James and Nanny Beth all at the same time.”“Oh,” was all that left her lips, the memory coming back to her as she slowly relaxed back down on the bed. I didn’t want her moving or doing anything after everything she just went through from both the labor and with pushing out the baby.“We didn’t leave them, we just arrived here earlier than they did.” I continued, easing her down. “They will be here soon don’t worry. I just texted James the address.”She just nodded in response, her eyes looking a bit drowsy as she laid on the bed. “Is it okay if she sleeps? She looks really tired,” I asked a nurse, the only one still present.Apparently, she stayed back to keep watch and ensure Val’s vitals were

Chapter: CHAPTER 318VALERIE’S POVSIX MONTHS LATER“Wah... what’s happening?”“Why isn’t the car moving anymore? Hudson!!” I screamed out his name, my breath both labored and unstable as I literally tried to hold onto anything for support. Anything at all, as long it could elevate the searing pain that seemed to tear through me at every 30 seconds.Just then, the car door flung open, presenting a very alarmed looking Hudson. “Val!” He cried out, slightly panicky at first to see me sprawled out on the back seat as I was unable to sit still anymore. “Val… love, we’re here. We’re here at the hospital; you will be fine. You will be totally fine!”“Oh God…” I moaned painfully as another wave of contraction hit me, not even letting me register the help Hudson’s hands wanted to give to me right now. Forcing me to slap him away as I cried out in pains. All I felt was pain, everything hurt!Every damned thing, and the more I stayed breathless on these back seats the crazier I became with pain. “Oh God, Huds…Hudson

Chapter: CHAPTER 317HUDSON’S POV“I’m pregnant, Hudson!” her words echoed in my ears, my mind not believing it as I stood there watching her calmly reach the living room without me.Pregnant.Did she- did she just say she was pregnant?Like pregnant, we are having a baby pregnant?“Oh my God,” I found myself muttering, a smile slowly making its way to my lips as she winked at me from her spot on the couch. “Oh my… OH MY GOD!”At my outburst she chuckled, covering her lips to hide her smiles.I didn’t even realize when I started hurrying towards her, my steps literally the fastest i had been. Like ever!And when I reached her on the couch, I just tackled her to a hug. Uncontrollable laughter leaving my lips as I turned her over that she was on my chest. Her elated chuckles filling the air, matching mine, honey brown waves cascading all over us. Longer than I even remembered but I wouldn’t have it any other way.Something else was far more important. Way more important! We were having a baby! An actual baby

Chapter: CHAPTER 88ALINA’S POV“What answering to the engineer… Ben?”“Duhh, the police man. Of course it’s the engineer, Ben!” she snapped, eyes narrowing. Rude. “He’s been calling you for ages and you’re here…daydreaming.”I didn’t give her the satisfaction of a response to that. Just turned to my desks then, picked up my phone and checked the intercom. Truthfully I had a couple missed calls, Cleo and Ben.I didn’t forget lunch time with Cleo, did I? She wasn’t staying there waiting for me and I- oh no. Oh no, I hope that wasn’t the case at all.But before I could diverge more into whether or not I forgot about stuff, Vanessa rounded my desk then. Huffing and swaying herself right in front of me. Where she should be like a normal staff speaking to her head manager cause it seemed she’d somehow forgotten about that.“Your attention is needed outside.” She said, crossing her arms on her chest. “The new shipments have arrived and they refuse to speak with no one or let down the goods unless you show up.”

So don't lose this.""I wouldn't dream of it. I already have the words all memorized AL; K-"Don't say it. It sounds so cheesy out loud.""What's wrong with cheesy, I like cheesy. You're cheesy, you're getting us-"Shushhh, don't say it!"The voices fade off, chuckles. Laughter. The memory flashing through my mind, so also colour drained from my face. My body cold right then and there. Frozen.But one thought crystal clear;I knew what it meant; KWS.I knew it. How could I not know ... It was the beginning of the end, the end of the beginning for me. Us."Do you think ice in the drinks is better than when they're not?" He asked, holding up his glass. Looking at it strange as he sat relaxed on his couch. Legs crossed. "I'm kind of feeling like they taste different despite pouring from the same jar. It's a litt

Chapter: CHAPTER 86ALINA’S POV“Okay deal.” I finally said, agreeing. “Deal.”“Sure?” He turned, checking me for a nod of approval. After that, “Good.” he commented, proud. Shoulders high. “That’s what I like to hear.”Of course.You’d like it of course, you’re plans working perfectly.Call me out, call my work off, set a stage for yourself and then crack a deal.I would be proud.“So breakfast?” I let out, shaking off those thoughts. Lips stretched thin as I rose to help with whatever it was he was making by the-microwave??He had a microwave on the bar counter?“Breakfast.” he muttered, answering my silent question. Myself forcing a smile as I stood by. He let me help though. And like that, we quietly we did what I never imagined in a million years. Not even in my dreams, and I’ve had quite a lot of dreams. With him in it.“So you chopped off his head simply because you didn’t have your way?” he asked. More like insinuated actually, couple of minutes after our meal.“Err, no.” I corrected, “I didn’t c

Chapter: Chapter 85ALINA’S POVOf all the things I expected… it wasn’t this.“Oh hey, neighbour!” he grinned. Amidst the slight smoke in front of him that is. “You’ve decided to come out of your cave, huh?”Cave?I didn’t even respond to him. Couldn’t do it if I wanted to, something else had taken over my attention. The environment. The same environment I’d been living in, took a scan of yesterday, last night and currently looking around right now.Everything was different.The settings a semi-lounge/patio kind of feel. Right on our floor. Our spotless circular floor with glass walls that were now visibly open at some spots to allow air into the space. By the side of the wall laid cream colored comfortable looking couches, curved in just the right manner to fit the curves of the wall, the elevators on that sides gone. There were even a few polished chairs and tables, a little bar on the side, drinks and glasses already waiting on the counter. Then finally, him.Him standing over a make shift barbecue

I paused, "Something happened again? Another upgrade or something??""No, no,." He chuckled, relaxed. "It's not that. We just got an off day today.""Off day?""Boss's orders. I just thought to inform you as well."And that was how I began my morning. I began it staring at my phone after the call, noting and scrolling through the bombshell of text messages I'd gotten."Did he text me all through the night??" I blasted, disbelief. Scanning it all."You're ignoring me, aren't you?""You're such a coward.""I don't remember you being so cowardly, did 5 years apart do this to you??""You know you haven't changed one bit, just became more cowardly than normal, Alina!"Are you kidding me.Are fucking kidding-My phone beeped just then. A text. Him. Again."You're up now, I assume?"Another one; "Got the news?""Got the new

Chapter: CHAPTER 83ALINA’S POV“Alina, what are you-I pushed him off right then, with all my might, same time a dramatic loud gasp filled the air, my office.It was like time froze for a minute. Everything moving in slow motion; me, him, the door opening, gasp, my life, career, the gossip…everything flashed before my eyes and in that single moment!“Oh God!” she let out, frozen at the door. Watching us with wide eyes. “What is…what is going on?” I swallowed. Adjusting instantly, clearing throat as I faced her fully. Away from him. Barely. He stood rooted to the spot just 2 steps from me.Unfazed.“Vanessa,” I called, pushing a somewhat calm smile. “What are you …what are you doing here?”“Oh me?” she raised an eyebrow, cocky. “I was just passing!”Really. You were passing from Seraph wing, two floors above and magically happened to walk past here. “I was just passing and thought to say hello then…met this!”“This?” I picked, my heart sinking. Shoulders striagtening out. “W-what do you mean ‘this’? Th

Chapter: Chapter 235SERENA'S POV "Oh the heavens surely have eyes!""Let me see it again. Show me please!"I chuckled. Pulling up my top for the fourth time just this evening. Everyone smiling and staring like it was some special globe of destiny. Celeste been the worst of them all. The very culprit to my continuous belly display.I should just wear a crop top at this point."I still can't believe it." She said, smiling. Eyes bright. Smiles brighter. "I can't believe I'll be having grandbabies at once! Two!""Have some tea at least," Rosa dropped in front of her, smiling too. Urging her to take something. She hadn't since we she came here, since we arrived back at the house.At first we stopped by her place, to deliver the news. But we only got told she'd gone to ours instead, making us come home to her more than eager to jump on our bodies. Excited.Purely excited to see us.Together especially.It was her long hard prayers. Then she found out about the pregnancy, and now about it being twins too!You

Chapter: chapter 234SERENA'S POV "Are you okay?""Yeah, I'm okay." I chuckled, holding his hands. "Are YOU okay? Like really okay.""Yeah sure," he said, shrugging. Interlocking our hands.Hmm."Are you really sure, cutie?" I pressed, surprising him. "You've asked me if I'm fine 6 times already. I'm now worried for you.""Oh, I err...I just wanted make sure."Hmm."Okay," I sat back, letting it go. "It's okay, you know. To be tensed, surrounded by big bellied women... crying babies."He smiled, "It's going to us, isn't it?""It is cutie," I confirmed, smiling. Then we sat in silence. Waiting like we've been doing for the past 30 minutes.Then he broke it,"You know I've been wanting to ask...why are you suddenly calling me Cutie?"I turned to him, laughing right out upon seeing his face. The genuine curiosity sitting there. Gray eyes blinking in both confusion and innocence."What," he pulled at me, not understanding."You're cute." I said, calming down."I'm not cute. In fact, I think I find the word o

Chapter: Chapter 233SERENA'S POV The rest of the day was spent in absolute bliss.Bliss unimaginable!The staff all sitting at the table for the first time in a long while. Chatters filling the air, laughter, jokes, memories being told, of things that happened while I was away. The things that happened the period I left, how Eliot reacted, almost fired them all and so much more!Eliot was also at the table during all of these. His very first time ever to sit with his staff. Talk about laughing, talking or joking with them.All he did was dish out orders before now. But now that was going to change. He sat with us, didn't he? He even laughed several times when Rene was spilling all about the gossip she packed online about May and my entire family!Apparently my mom had made a circus at our gates. Several days even. Several times.But Eliot did not pay her any mind. Didn't chase her away either. She even involved the press, but I saw no such news online.I guess my schemer of a husband had that handled

Chapter: Chapter 232SERENA'S POV They're a lot of hard decisions.Tons of them if you think about the life span of the human life. Imagine how many hard decisions we have to make as we grow, age and live longer everyday.They were a lot, and rightly so spread out in our years.But why did mine seem different?Why did mine seem to come more in my early age?? Why?Since I could remember, I'd forced to take decisions. Decisions people of my age wouldn't normally take, I'd been forced to make those decisions and then try to live in those decisions.From living with my father and family, to shrinking to protect myself, talking less, submitting more, accepting to be treated like trash and without complaints. Then getting married, living in the marriage, getting divorced or at least attempting to, building a business, reconnecting with an old friend... everything.Everything just seemed so hard and all at the same time.I could barely get a year of rest. I'd never gotten a year of rest, not even a month of res

Chapter: Chapter 231ELIOT'S POV "Court arise!"The voice filled the air before I could even move a muscle. Everyone rising just then.Including her. Myself joining. Looking from the judge coming in and back to her.She didn't look in my direction once though, just right ahead. Spotting a white flowy dress. One that reached up to her ankles, her black hair in a normal ponytail, a white scarf wrapped around her neck too, covering her arms.If I didn't know I'd think she here for a funeral or something. Or she'd been crying."Did something happen?" I muttered, staring at her openly as we sat back down. Worry in my belly.What could've happened?I knew she quarrelled with Axel, but anything else happened? Did he hurt her?My head whipped right back to her at the thought, almost rising. John's steady hands catching me just in time. Surprised."Sir,"I blinked. Sitting back down, surveying my environment, the judge at his desk, another person reading off stuff. Recordings from the previous hearing probably.

Chapter: Chapter 230ELIOT'S POV I didn't want things to go this way. Didn't want it to escalate to this level, get to this point and dragging back all these old things...But he asked for it.He definitely did. So I let him have it then."From helping you to settle down, keep out of problems for a few months, getting along with your wife, and then implant the fashion idea. Arranging people to help with the idea, the smooth running of everything. The business, cause as we both know, you're way too reckless to run anything right."He held my stare. Disbelief.I sipped from my glass then, the air quiet. Finally quiet. His brain adjusting. Understanding. Cause he needed to. He needed to get it, and be done with this misbehaviour he's been exhibiting."I did it all," I finished. "I did it as compensation. T you, and well maybe for... For family. We do share a surname after all."He scoffed at that. Scornful. Malice boiling in his eyes, digging like sharp daggers. As usual. Only thing now it was more obviou
