JULIAN

The next day came the same way.

After throwing up early in the morning, sitting in the bathroom with no energy to continue living, Xavier washed me up, dressed me up, and took me downstairs to warm up ginger tea for me. Then he also fed me.

My eyes remained on him all through, eagerly waiting for him to ask me about Fred, but Xavier didn't seem to have anything on his mind.

He continued his care, and when Abel came over, he handed me over to Abel and wished us good luck for the day.

I stepped out of the house in a daze.

"Get in," Abel said.

He looked guilty ever since we met again this morning, but I was too lost to think about him.

Of course, he needed to be disciplined. He worked for me but went ahead to report everything back to Xavier without asking for my consent.

If Xavier had fought with me concerning Fred last night... but he didn't.

He didn't even say anything.

Thinking about it again, I felt my heart sink. Was it that Xavier didn't care about me, or did he

  • CAGED IN HIS EMBRACE    EPILOGUE

    EPILOGUEJULIAN Grandmother Alice and my grandmother both held one boy and one girl while the remaining boy was being held by my husband, Xavier. The room was filled with guests as it was our children's year birthday. The babies: Finn, Leo, and Mia all had a smile on their faces as they were held behind the grand cake that was made for them. Looking around the room, I saw Abel, Director James, and a few people working in Xavier's company. They all gave their gifts and wished the children well. Xavier held my hand, squeezing gently as a hearty smile bloomed on his face. The ceremony continued for a while before Xavier handed the baby over to my mother. I followed him to my mother and poked the baby's cheeks. His round cheek pulled as he opened his small mouth and laughed. The baby looked cute... He was the only one who looked exactly like me. Taking after both my eyes and tender face. I knew without even conducting a test that he was an omega. The rest, Finn and Mia, were bo

  • CAGED IN HIS EMBRACE    CHAPTER 63: DELIVERY

    JULIANXavier and I sat at grandmother Alice's bedside, listening to her weak voice as she told us stories about her past. I rubbed my cheeks that were starting to ache after laughing for a whole afternoon. "Grandmother, so what made you leave the military?" I asked with eager eyes. Grandmother Alice chuckled and feigned a pitiful expression. "Of course, I got pregnant." She revealed I exhaled, showing shock. "Really?" "Yes. I had to follow my husband after that." Xavier shook his head. "I bet that was the main reason."Grandmother Alice's cheeks burned red as she raised her hand to knock Xavier's shoulder. We all laughed at her action. Right then, the door creaked, and turning around, I saw a doctor walk in. He approached with a smile and greeted Grandmother Alice. "The surgery was successful, Grandma, but you know you still need a lot of rest, right?" He asked in a kind voice. Grandmother Alice's face grew tense at the doctor's words, and she glanced at my belly. "But doct

  • CAGED IN HIS EMBRACE    CHAPTER 62: EXPOSED

    JULIANI watched as Xavier dropped the call and began typing on his phone. I had a bad premonition. "What's the issue? Did something happen at work?" I asked curiously. Xavier shook his head. He looked into my eyes and his lips pressed into a thin line. "It's about you." He mumbled "About me?" I was surprised. What could it be?"Tell me," I said. Xavier's eyes flickered with anger. His soft expression turned into coldness, and his jaw clenched. "Someone revealed that you got pregnant without marriage." He mumbled.His tone was low and filled with worry. He held my hand and squeezed gently. "I told you this because I know you are strong." He said. Looking into his eyes, I could see the immense sincerity in them, which surprisingly distracted my thoughts from the reveal online. The corners of my lips pulled up in a soft smile, and I patted the hand that held mine. "Hm. I'm fine." I nodded. This was true. I had always feared being exposed and even once wished this day would ne

  • CAGED IN HIS EMBRACE    CHAPTER 61: WARMTH

    JULIAN"Some fun?" I asked, feigning ignorance. Xavier's smile deepened. His fingers trailed along the lines of my legs, and he winked. "Something that will make you feel good." He said, his voice being low and seductive.My throat parched and heat formed within me. "Pervert." My tongue let out. Xavier let out a chuckle as he pulled my legs, making me lie flat on the couch, and he pressed a kiss on my lips. The warmth covered me whole, pushing back every distracting thought in my heart. Wait... thoughts?Xavier, you bastard!He actually changed my topic!!!I stretched out my hands, ready to give him a punch, but I... ended up hugging him instead, and the kiss deepened. Um... I guess I've been charmed. *************A message popped up on my phone, waking me up from my short nap, and checking my phone, I realized it was a message from Abel. "Check the FESTERING HEART Crew group." I read the message, and my brows creased. Festering heart? What happened?But I still clicked on

  • CAGED IN HIS EMBRACE    CHAPTER 60: EXPOSED?

    JULIAN"Who else knows about this?" I asked through difficult breathing. Fred shook his head. "No one else did. I've been trying my best to keep the secret from you." He explained. But that only scared me more. Fred was a scum and no word from his tongue could be trusted. I stared into his eyes, trying to see if he was deceiving me, but this thought was quickly forgotten by me as Fred wasn't someone I could easily read into. If that was possible, I'd have found out he was deceiving me when we were dating back then. I'd have found out he never loved me...But he was cunning. He'd never let out his real feelings. I clenched my fist and tried to control my breathing as I was starting to feel weak from within. "Don't ever tell anyone," I said hoarsely. Fred shook his head. "I will never tell anyone." He said solemnly. But it was hard to put my mind at rest... I braced myself, stood right, and glared at him. I tried my best to look menacing as my lips parted: "If I hear this fro

  • CAGED IN HIS EMBRACE    CHAPTER 59: CONFRONTATION

    JULIAN I stared at the silver drink inside the cup, and my heart thumped. What if the alcohol harmed my babies? "I don't want to," I said in a low voice, pushing the cup back to the actress. Her expression changed as blush crept to her cheeks. "Ah, Mr Julian, can't you give me a little face?" She asked, blinking. I could tell she was embarrassed. My eyes glinted with hidden resentment as I looked at the female actress. Her words had attracted the attention of the rest, and everyone was looking at us with questions in their eyes.Not taking the drink from her would make them think I was arrogant. But taking it from her... what would happen to my babies?I secretly glanced at my belly, and my heart felt heavy. What was I supposed to do?The thoughts crossed my mind, and my eyes slowly stilled. Annoying the people here wouldn't matter much anyway. I might never see them again after the drama aired...I stretched my hand forward, ready to take the cup and drop it aside, but a slen
