LOGINGrandfather Sanchez let out a hearty laughter as he watched the good old Boydās family mansion come into view. It was just yesterday when his granddaughter-in-law had put to bed and the joy that came with carrying his great-grandchild in his arms escorted him on this short trip.He had not only gained a great-grandchild but also his fatherās prized possession would be returned to him very soon. His prized golf club.The security guards at the mansionās gate saluted him as the car was allowed to cruise up to the entrance of the mansion where a beautiful old lady waited.āGood day, Old Master Sanchez.ā Samantha, Old Boydās wife greeted politely.āSamantha.ā The old man acknowledged with a slight frown on his face. āWhere is your husband?.ā He asked with a raised eyebrow.Samantha let out an awkwardly tight smile as she spoke out. āI apologize, Old Boyd is unable to receive any visitor at the moment as he is currently indisposed. But I assure you, I am an excellent host.āāWould you like
It was late into the night when Noahās eyes gradually opened.His eyelids continued to flutter until they finally adjusted to the lighting in the room. When he tried to turn on his side, his back hurt, and his entire body felt numb so he lay there for a while, unmoving.~Her bed was warm and Lola felt more comfortable as she snuggled against her huge pillow. She remained there until she heard her phone vibrate and her tired eyes reluctantly opened up.āAh..h!.ā Lola jumped off the bed with a scream as she realized that the pillow she had been hugging was a real person. Who would dare?...Noah, who had been pushed off to the edge of the bed groaned at the slight pain her roughness had brought to his still-recovering body.Now widely awake, Lola was in for a double shock as she stared at the person in hospital clothes who she had pushed away. āNoah!!!.ā Lola screamed with joy and a rush of excitement overtook her as she jumped back on the bed to return to her husbandās embrace, comple
SEVEN WEEKS LATER,Lola clutched the test results in her hands tightly as she rushed into the hospitalās restroom. Finally, alone, she let the hot tears that she had been holding back stream down freely on her face. She was pregnant, and yet there was no way to tell him that he was going to be a father. Her phone started to ring in her purse and Lola inhaled sharply to clear her voice before she picked up the call. It was Maria. āMom.ā She managed to say in a clear voice. āHoney, you should come home today. Let me take care of you while you get some rest...āāI will be fine, Mom. Trust me. You know Iām a lot stronger than you think.ā Lola said, even though her supposed strength was a lie, she refused to be swayed from her responsibility. āBesides I have to be there for when...ā she insisted. Maria let out a long sigh at the other end of the line, her daughter was stubborn as always and she wondered who it was that the girl had taken after. Richard.āIf you say so.ā Maria finally sa
āStep away from her this moment, Nathaniel!.āAndy ordered as he stared at his wife who looked too shaken to utter a word. He could understand what she was going through, after all, he had been present all along to know just how much Nathanial had affected her in the past.āStay out of this, Father!.ā Ash snapped as he ran his hand through his hair frustratedly. āI am not your father, neither is she your mother. We are not related to you in any way whatsoever. Come to your senses, young man!.ā Andy clarified angrily.Ash let out a bitter laugh and he withdrew his hands from Avaās to stand up to his feet. āIn the end, it's those two you want right?.ā He questioned, referring to Noah and Xena.Their present denial of him was a huge blow to Ashās ego. He had been prepared to do anything for them. He had been ready to get rid of the children who had replaced him in their life, he had been ready to kill Noah and Xena Sanchez to have his parents back. He had done a lot of bad deeds to come
Infinity Apartments,The Penthouse.āBoss!.ā John bowed as he reached Noah amidst the anxious gazes of Grandfather Sanchez, Lola, and Mr. Henry. The men had indeed discovered something, but it would be safer if only Noah learned of it so he leaned in to whisper to Noah, but he was stopped by Noah who shook his head and ordered. āSpeak up!.āJohn glanced in Lolaās direction with a slight hesitation in his gaze. āBoss, I don't think..āAn icy glare from Noah shut him up.āWhatever it is, we need to hear it boy!.ā Grandfather Sanchez added and Lola and Mr.Henry nodded in agreement. The old man did not like the way the bodyguard was cautious of Lolaās presence either. She was one of them now and the Sanchez familyās women would not be thought of as weaklings! It was a family matter and they all had to think of a solution, together. John swallowed and decided to speak up regardless of how sensitive the matter might be to the young miss.He looked at Noah directly and reported. āThe men m
āTheyāve been gone for over six hours. The flight takes three. So how is it possible that they are not yet there?.āAn eerie silence settled over the room as everyone suddenly turned serious. Even Lola, who had just walked out of the bedroom after hearing the old manās voice in the living area was forced to keep the formalities aside and listen in on the conversation, quietly.āI had called the resort before all else sir, they are indeed yet to arrive.ā Mr. Henry explained. He had only noticed that something was off when the guards that had been arranged to convey the elder Sanchez couple from the airport to the resort where they were to stay had called to inform him that thetwo people they were expecting, were nowhere to be seen. The bodyguards had been waiting at the airport for a long time before they finally reached out.Mr. Henry was also the one to confirm the booking of their stay instead of Grandfather Sanchez, so it had also been easy for him to get the information that he ne
