"Jimmy, it's been days. I want to see her and the baby. What's the big deal?"He sighed, "I promise, we'll go later. I just need to sort some things out first."Jemma, growing more anxious, insisted, "But I've been waiting, Jimmy. I can't wait any longer. What's going on?"Noah, worried about her mental state, softened his tone, "Listen, babe. Trust me, I'll take you to see Jia, okay? I don't want to rush into things."Jemma, feeling a pang of doubt, couldn't hold back, "Are you hiding something from me? Why won't you just take me?""No, Jemma, it's not like that.""Jimmy..." her eyes turned tearful."Okay. I'll take you out to dinner tonight, at October Villa. Jia's staying there, and we can see her afterward. Deal?"Jemma hesitated for a moment, then agreed, "Okay, dinner it is. But you better not forget about it.Noah smiled, relieved that he had managed to divert her attention, "I won't. Now, let me get going, okay?"Jemma agreed, watching him leave for the office. As the door clo
"How... How is that possible? I remember, we chatted the morning I got attacked. You were the one telling me the baby was all healthy. What the hell happened?" "Maybe it's just my rotten luck, Jemma. But seeing you with Sunny, I can't help but be grateful you made it through and had a healthy baby." "Oh, Jia..." Jemma enveloped her in a tight hug, both women clinging to each other as tears flowed freely. Meanwhile, Noah reached the October Villa. As he approached, Yohan shot him a glare colder than a snowstorm. "Dad... Mom..." Noah greeted them, his eyes darting around to gauge the situation. Sunny was playing with Yohan. Noah swallowed hard, sensing trouble. "How can you be so careless, Jimmy? Why'd you let Jemma come here alone at this hour? You know the danger's not over yet," Sara scolded, her tone edged with worry. "Mom, I didn't want her to come, but she insisted..." "You're avoiding the situation, Jimmy. You can't change the past, but you shouldn't be dodging what's happ
The sun had gone down, and even though it was nighttime, it wasn't as dark as the terrible situation the helpless woman was facing. Sara Owen was sitting on the couch, tears still flowing down her face, while a tall man stood by the bar counter, looking at her with a drunken gaze. They hadn't spoken for a while because Sara had nothing to say, and the man, Kevin Johnson, was anxious about the questions weighing on his heart. "I'll tell you everything about your kidnapped husband. In return, you have to spend one night with me." And this was his condition. Sara Owen’s frightened gaze and pale face gave him space to calm down. Her innocence was effective. “Turn back.” “Huh?” He stood there, hands in his pockets, looking at her innocent face with his red and dark eyes. “Turn… Back…” Her throat tighten. She swallowed hard, trying to calm herself, and turned around. He approached her, sending shivers down her spine. "Unzip," he ordered. Sara shut her eyes tightly, mustering her c
The road was empty, and the white car cruised along at a steady pace. Raindrops occasionally obscured the view through the windshield. Jack, the driver, glanced at Sara Owen through the rearview mirror and noticed her slouched in the back seat, staring out the window with red, swollen eyes. A wave of pity washed over Jack as he observed her.Ever since Sara Owen moved into October Villa, Yohan Dixon's private residence, Jack had been her driver. He had witnessed her going through various challenging situations, but it was after her husband's kidnapping that he saw her suffer each day.As they arrived back at Dixon Villa, Sara Owen entered the premises with a sense of hopelessness, her strength seemingly drained after stepping out of the car.Yohan's aunt, Natalie, anxiously waiting for Sara Owen. As soon as she spotted Sara, she stood up."Sara," Natalie called out.Sara lifted her gaze. Sensing that something was amiss, Natalie paused. Suddenly, Sara collapsed to the ground, her hand
Sara finally spoke up, expressing her desire to return to October Villa. This surprised and saddened Natalie and Bruno.“I've been waiting for so long and I'm getting impatient. I feel like I'll die if I keep waiting for him. I have so many memories with him at October Villa. I want to keep those memories close to me to help me keep going."Natalie sadly agreed, wanting to respect Sara's right to live her life as she saw fit. In return, Natalie asked Sara to promise to keep visiting them on weekends.Bruno Dixon spoke up in his deep voice, "You know since Ricky was kidnapped, managing the group has been tough. He worked on several projects before he disappeared, but the company is losing money due to his IT investment."Natalie then placed a file on Sara's lap, leaving her puzzled."What's this?" Sara asked."It's a gift. Ricky wanted to give it to you on your graduation day."Sara looked at the file, feeling a sense of daze and wonder.She wondered what kind of investment he had made
Sara Owen had finally found some optimism after arduous days. She hugged her chest while gazing out the window.Just then, Natalie knocked on the door. Sara Owen backed up, "Aunt. Please come.”Natalie approached her with her gentle smile.“When Ricky entered the study room, he would also forget about the outer world."Both people turned to see the moon covered by clouds."I always felt proud while seeing him at work. But it makes me sad to watch you.” Natalie said."I am preparing myself to behave like him.""Who knows what he'll do if he comes back and sees you working in this state!"Sara Owen suddenly lost her colour as she peered into Natalie's eyes.This state!!"Don't punish your child. He is blameless." Natalie said.Sara Owen averted her tear-filled gaze."Aunt."Natalie held up her palms, "You kept such a significant truth secret from everyone up until now!"However, her walk and tummy were unable to conceal the reality."I didn’t hide it. I just…want to find him.""Did Rick
From a tiny crack in the window, sunlight was streaming into the pitch-black chamber and falling on the blood-spattered arms. The white shirt had been stained red by blood. The veins in the arms and shoulders were still green. His jawline was seductive, his long neck rested on the ideal collarbone. His large skull wound erupted in blood, spilling down his face to his strong chest. His broad skull wound erupted in blood, which then trickled down his cheekbones and into his powerful chest. His lips had ripped corners and were dry and bloodless. His eyes were puffy and thick. Two men entered the pitch-black space kicking the door and threw a file in front of the injured man. There was very little movement in the long, bloodied fingers of the injured man as he lay motionless in the chair. Two men were laughing loudly as they looked at him. One of them walked up to the chair and punched the injured man in the face, causing his nose to start bleeding. “Son of a bitch! Sign the papers! We
“If my graduation had not been completed, I would not have been the Chief of IT Cell, then the powers would have been with uncle, your father.” Sara Owen stated what was written in the document.Neel Dixon glared at her for a moment, how did this simple woman start understanding the tricks of business?“Okay. I cancel the board meeting.”“I'm not stopping you from taking company decisions, Neel. But every decision taken in this company should not go ahead without my consent.”Neel Dixon nodded with a deep sigh, “Let’s go home. Mom and Dad are waiting for us.”“You go. Jack will drop me.”Staring at her pretty face for a while, Neel Dixon left the cabin.“Madam…”Before Assistant Nolan speak, Sara Owen turned back feeling sad, “Was the deal for which Neel went on a business trip successful?”“No, Madam. They did not understand Young Master’s concept. Although they are our very old client, but they found the chairman's way of working more reliable.”“I want a report of every damage, in
