EX-HUSBAND'S REGRET: "Mommy, please forgive Daddy." 045
By the time Catherine concluded her meeting with Torrey, she was seething with sheer annoyance. Despite his success in provoking her, she had managed to keep her composure in front of him as expressing her anger was not an option she dared to consider.Torrey's harsh words had left her stunned into silence, her heart racing in disbelief. She had stared at him for a moment, grappling with the weight of his statements, before finally excusing herself under the pretense of needing to visit Jordan. Torrey had permitted her to leave, but the damage was already done.Now, she stood outside his office, fury coursed through her veins. Her resentment for the older man had only intensified after their conversation. She just couldn't believe him. How could he say such cruel things about his own grandson, her only son?Like her day couldn't get any worse, her eyes caught sight of someone approaching her direction. Upon turning her gaze, she saw it was Henry, walking toward Torrey's office with a

"Hmm, nice work. You got your girl coming over today?" One of the inmates asked as they noticed Jordan's cautious activity in the restroom that morning.Jordan, who had been busy carefully shaving off the hair on his face, paused when he heard the man.He stole a glance at him and shrugged. "Yeah, something like that." Redirecting his gaze to the mirror before him, he stared at himself. He felt a pang of unfulfillment and his chest heaved in despair. He further exhaled before continuing what he had done earlier. When he was done he washed his face and tossed the shaving stick into the trash bin nearby. Jordan gazed at his reflection once more, and this time, he was a bit impressed by how he looked. He now had a clean-shaven, sharp jaw that complemented his charm. Releasing another sigh, his gaze shifted to his hair and he frowned, noticing how unkempt it looked. It didn't match his clean-shaven jaw and it made him look dirty. He didn't like that. He quickly contemplated how he could

Though his heart twisted with heartbreak, nonetheless, he grabbed a seat as she had ordered earlier. His ego was hurt but he tried to maintain his composure and managed the warm smile etched on his face. He was disappointed still. That wasn't the way he had expected her to act upon seeing him. How could she not flinch at seeing this handsome and charming man like him? The Alexa he used to know would've instantly complimented him whenever she noticed anything new about him. But this one, she acted so indifferently and it really plagued Jordan. He couldn't help but wonder if he'd ever be able to achieve his plans with this attitude of hers. It was daunting, for real.However, he reminded himself of what was at stake. Getting disowned by their grandfather and losing his company wasn't an option; he didn't care how he'd have to do it, but he knew something needed to be done. Alexa must fall for him again, whether she liked it or not. Pondering this, he drew in a deep breath and exhaled b

Jordan remained quiet for a moment as he contemplated his inner thoughts. He was wracking his brain for a solution on how he could break past Alexa's barricades. He realized nothing seemed to be working on her, well, because he hadn't really attempted his real charm on her yet. He was still being sluggish with it, maybe it was finally time to do that.Jordan pressed a smile to his face, his emerald orbs directed at Alexa in a calculating stare. He paused for a few seconds, their eyes locked on each other's before he finally started as he uncrossed his arms across his torso."I'm sorry, baby." He apologized randomly, his voice thick with emotion.Alexa was undoubtedly caught off-guard by Jordan's abrupt apology.His tone filled with seriousness, Jordan persisted. "I'm sorry for all the shit I put you through. You didn't deserve that..."Alexa's jaws tightened and she barked at him as she felt he was only feigning to be concerned."Enough with that, it's too late to apologize. You had f

As soon as she closed the car door behind her after settling in, Alexa heaved out an exasperated sigh, her heart racing with trepidation. She tossed her bag on the passenger's seat and grabbed the steering wheel for support.She paused for a moment, trying to gather her thoughts. Her emotions were heightened and she couldn't comprehend the reason why. Well, she could. It all started when she had seen Jordan's new appearance earlier. She hadn't been anticipating him to walk into her like that, looking badboysihly handsome and leaving her favorite part of his body exposed to her eyes. She had merely been able to contain her emotions when she saw him. Gosh, he looked so fine.Alexa could feel her heart racing nervously as she reminisced about the moment. Though her reaction earlier had been indifferent, she couldn't deny the fact that liquid pooled at her core as she remained in his intoxicating presence. Perhaps, it was from the way he had spoken to her in his mesmerizing voice or the w

The truth from the paper glared at Jordan as his eyes remained fixated on the paperwork. Jordan froze instantly, his insides coursing with disbelief. He couldn't believe it. For some reason, his chest tightened with pain as he grappled with the revelation. His hands holding the paper trembled slightly as his insides spiraled with turmoil."Boss, are you okay?" Norman asked when he noticed his boss's reaction to the news. Norman's words pierced through Jordan's thoughts but they weren't enough to pull him back to reality as he was still reeling with shock and confusion. His mind spiraled with the thoughts of 'how'?'How was this possible'?'How true was this'?'How had he not known'?'How had Alexa kept such significant information from him'?The one that plagued him the most was 'How Alexa had been able to conceive his children, right after her miscarriage had been declared to him. Or was it all farce? Did she deliberately plan that so she could have an excuse to leave him? Jordan s

After his meeting with Norman, Jordan was returning to his cell when he was informed that he had another visitor who had just come in right after Norman departed.Jordan's confusion was palpable as he couldn't comprehend how he had managed to encounter several visitors on this day. Well, how bad could it get? Maybe it was his mother who had arrived. Or someone else he knew. He thought as he retraced his steps, trailing behind the officer who led him to the visitation room.His mind was soon consumed with thoughts of Alexa and he didn't even notice the smile that etched across his face as he walked along. He was still basking in the good news regarding their children.But his joy was short-lived as he finally lifted his gaze after they had arrived at the visitation room. He halted in his tracks, his dissolving into a frown as he locked eyes with his ex, Luciana Henderson."The fuck are you doing here?" He demanded sharply. "I thought we've already talked about this. I said I didn't wan

Luciana Henderson wiped away the tears from her eyes before heading over to her car outside. She settled in, grabbing the steering wheel as she forced herself to regain her composure. She drew in a deep breath, shutting her eyes for a moment as she allowed the air to cool her face.Eventually, she fluttered her eyes open, her expression inscrutable. She glanced over at the rearview mirror, staring at her reflection for a while. After that, she sighed again and raked her fingers through her hair, trying to gather her thoughts.She wasn't pleased with herself as she hadn't been able to accomplish the reason behind her visit. Jordan hadn't given her what she came for. If anything, he had shut her out. But something greatly plagued Luciana and that was the fact that Jordan had already realized he was being framed.Anxiety washed over her as she grappled with her thoughts. She couldn't let him find out who the real culprit was; it would end her because she knew she was the one behind it al

A wave of panic coursed through Luciana as she made her way towards the States Prison. She hadn't been able to keep her mind at rest as she recalled what had transpired two days prior; when Ivy had met her in Henry's office. She already knew by now that Ivy must have already informed Jordan about what she had witnessed. Luciana couldn't afford Jordan getting the wrong idea. She needed to convince him before he changed his mind towards her good.Luciana had tried reaching out to Henry after what happened at the office but Henry had stopped taking any of her calls after he seriously made it clear to her that he wanted nothing to do with her again. He had basically threatened her that the next time she'd show up at his office unannounced, he would react in a way she wouldn't like. Luciana was already aware of what was going on. She knew Ivy must have said something to the family about what she saw. Given the election was at any moment now, the need for Ivy to sabotage it had heightened.

An overwhelming silence passed the table as everyone absorbed the revelation in shock. Everyone was surprised except for Catherine, who looked nonchalant as she continued eating her meal. She was already aware of Ivy's plans before now. "What?" Torrey retorted, prompting Ivy to nod in affirmation as their eyes met. "Yes, Father,""What nonsense!" Igris snapped, rising to her feet and pointing a finger at Ivy, her eyes burning with fury. "How dare you accuse my son like this?""Accuse?" Ivy scoffed derisively, shaking her head. "I'm accusing no one. He knows I'm telling the truth.""You're lying," Igris cut her off in annoyance."Hey, everybody calm down!" Torrey barked an order.Igris glared at Ivy hardly before resuming her seat, her annoyance palpable. She shook her head, obviously fuming as she turned her gaze from Ivy to Torrey.Meanwhile, Henry remained quiet as he contemplated his thoughts."Henry, Son," Torrey started calmly as he turned his face to Henry, who reciprocated hi

"You can send whatever you've found out so far to my office tomorrow, Johnny, I'll be at the company." Ivy's voice trailed off as she spoke into the phone.She was interrupted as her room door pushed open. She turned to see it was her mother who had just stepped in.Still on the phone, she listened intently to what the receiver was saying before she replied once more. "I need it urgently. Gather everything you can get on her... It's Luciana. She's very sly but still dumb. This should be easy, now get the fuck out of my phone," she stated firmly before hanging up without waiting for the other person's response."Mom," Ivy heaved a sigh as she ran her hand through her hair, her mind spiralling with several thoughts. However, she dismissed them, choosing to focus on her mother who was staring at her with an inquisitive gaze."Who was that?" Catherine asked as she approached Ivy's side."Johnny, one of my aids. I just asked him to find out what he can on Luciana and Henry's relationship."

"... I want to know, Alexa, the reason behind your hesitation..." His words echoed in her ears, making her heartbeat quicken as she pondered her thoughts.Alexa didn't realize she had gone eerily silent until Tyler's voice called out to her again."Hey, are you there?" His words sailing into her ears, she swallowed, snapping back to reality. "Yeah, I am." "So... What's the reason?" He questioned once more.A surge of annoyance coursed through Alexa as she sensed Tyler was controlling over the issue. For crying out loud, he had already handed full authority to he before he went on his trip so why the hell was he questioning her procedures now? Alexa mused.Nonetheless, she reserved her thoughts as she focused more on uncovering which of Jordan's family had reached out to Tyler and how much they'd told him. Judging by his sedate reaction, they mustn't have revealed to him that Jordan was her ex, and that was the reason she was reluctant to set him free. Alexa heaved a sigh at the tho

Alexa was swiping through the pages of the documents on her desk that Saturday morning when Elena entered her room with a tray of food. Her concentration was disrupted as she lifted her gaze to match Elena's, who was now approaching her after she gently closed the door behind her.Alexa heaved out a sigh, taking a momentary break as she let go of the paperwork and leaned back in her swivel chair, her eyes fixated on Elena who was now placing the tray on the desk."Hey," Alexa called out softly, stealing a glance at the cup of coffee and treats Elena had brought for her.It was past 11 am and she was yet to have breakfast as she was so busy that morning. She had refused to join Elena and the kids for breakfast that morning, citing she would do so soon enough. But seeing Alexa wasn't keeping to her words, Elena had resolved to bring her the food instead."You need to eat," Elena stated tersely as she took a seat from across Alexa's.Alexa sighed, massaging her temples. "I know. I will.

After the conclusion of the meeting with Jordan, Ivy returned home that day. She had left behind a shocked Jordan. Although she wasn't certain of her accusations of Luciana, she was reluctant to give her the benefit of the doubt. During her years living with Jordan while he had been married to Luciana, she had to realize that Luciana was a cunning and manipulative woman, who could twist her way into and out of anything.Ivy had decided to look into the matter further. She would carry out a thorough investigation and find out what was really going on between Henry and Luciana. Jordan hadn't told her anything tangible regarding his relationship with Luciana or what mission he had sent her on that landed her in Henry's office. Ivy couldn't understand why he was withdrawing that information from her but one thing she knew for sure was that she was going to uncover Luciana's secrets. That bitch couldn't be trusted."You're back," Catherine's voice sailed into Ivy's ears as she stepped int

A wave of panic coursed through Luciana, prompting her to back away from Henry as her eyes locked with Ivy's shocked ones."What the fuck is going on here?" Ivy's instant demand caused her heart to race with trepidation as a gulp walked down her throat.Luciana's throat ran dry, her breath hitching as she tried to form a meaningful response. She stole a glance at Henry and noticed the shocked expression disappearing from his face and being replaced by a nonchalant one.Returning her gaze to Ivy, Luciana's heart hammered in her chest as she absorbed the glare Ivy directed at her."Hello, Ivy," Luciana spoke up after a moment, breaking the tension and trying her best to be as casual as possible.But Ivy wasn't buying any of that. Instead, she eyed Luciana suspiciously, her eyes roaming her body and registering the outfit she was putting on. Ivy shook her head in disapproval, a look of disgust marring her face as she redirected her gaze at Luciana. "I cannot believe this...""You cannot

Luciana arrived at the Salvador's company a few minutes past eleven that morning. She was clad in a black slit skirt that perfectly accentuated her curves, matching it with a light blue blouse. Her hair was styled in soft waves and it flowed down her shoulders as she walked elegantly towards the gigantic building.She felt nervous about being seen despite putting on shades that partly concealed her face. She clutched her purse against her hip as she headed towards the elevator.She felt a pang of anxiety gripped her. She hadn't informed Henry she was coming to see him. She couldn't help but wonder how he was going to react to her abrupt visit. Luciana already knew how this was going to end. The thought of it had her heart racing with excitement.The elevator finally dinged after a few seconds since she entered, announcing her arrival at the top floor. Upon stepping out, Luciana glanced around to ensure either her mother-in-law or Grandfather Torrey wasn't around her. She felt very anx

Luciana yawned as she fluttered her eyes open that morning. Realizing what had transpired between her and Henry the previous night, her mind was on alert, and she quickly darted her gaze to check if he was asleep by her side on the bed. To her greatest disappointment, she was met with the vacant side of the bed.Her heart pricked her painfully and she hissed with irritation. She glanced at the room to grab a trace of him but there was none. He was gone. It was as though he never came by the previous night. It was as though Henry never came over to her house and made love to her when she least expected it. Though Luciana was hurt, reminiscing about their love-making the previous night, her heart fluttered with delight. At least that was a start at getting Henry back. She knew he couldn't resist her, she'd just have to try harder to win his attention.With this resolve in mind, Luciana hauled herself out of bed, heading towards the bathroom first to get a quick shower before going over
