Chapter 14

Author: Seventh Slumber
Sadie never caught a glimpse of the little boy's face before she left.

Blake slowly looked up only after she was gone.

He was only a teenager then, but his features were already quite sharp.

He stared in the direction Sadie had disappeared in, and mumbled, "You're the only light in the darkness I'm in."

Sadie snapped out of her reverie. She finally remembered him. She looked shocked when she asked, "Were you the little boy from all those years ago?"

"I'm the eldest son of Capitol City's richest family, the Walkers. The Walkers are a huge family with an equally large business, but many family members plot and scheme behind your back. I was poisoned when I was still in my mother's womb, and I was born disabled.

"Moreover, I was always a loner, and even my parents never really liked me. My mother gave birth to my younger brother not long after, and they lived a happy life as a family of three. I was the unnecessary one.

"I was bullied and looked down on throughout my entire childho

    The wedding went on as planned.Chad held Sadie's hand as he walked slowly up the stage.He had invited many people to the wedding. He wanted everyone to bear witness to the moment.As the host started the vows, Chad looked determinedly at Sadie and answered, "I do."The host continued, "Ms. Ellis, do you take Mr. Simmons as your husband to have and to hold, in sickness or in health, in life or in death, and to never be apart?”Sadie bit her lip. She did not answer."Ms. Ellis must be shy. Let's all encourage her with a round of applause."As the guests applauded, the host asked again, "Ms. Ellis, are you willing to take Mr. Simmons as your husband and be his only wife?"Chad lowered his voice, "Don't disappoint me, Sadie."Suddenly, the doors were opened. Blake was in a black suit when he walked in. It was just like three years ago."She's not willing. Sadie only has one husband in this lifetime, and that's me, Blake Walker." When Sadie saw Blake, she wanted to run to him,

    A sharp look appeared in Sadie's eyes as she glared at Chad through the mirror."Where are my children?"Chad looked unhappy. "You're always asking about them. Stop it, Sadie, or I'll get upset."We'll have our own children after our wedding today."Sadie raised her hand but was stopped before she could slap Chad.Chad said seriously, "We're getting married today, Sadie. I won't look good with a swollen cheek."Be a good girl and marry me. I'll give the children back to Blake."If you refuse, we'll just die together."Sadie was frightened by Chad's obsession. She did not dare to provoke him any further.Chad pursed his lips and said with a smile. "If you don't want to see blood today, work with the makeup artist and get your makeup done. I want you to be a beautiful bride."It was only after Chad left that Sadie could finally breathe.She was sure that Chad had gone crazy.…Meanwhile, many members of the police force and Interpol were gathered at the Walkers' villa.Chad

    Sadie was taken to a bedroom upstairs. The secretary, Ms. Jayne, was about to leave when Sadie called out to her."You're Josie, aren't you?" Sadie was sure about it.Even though Josie looked different, the air about her remained the same, just like how it was with Chad. It was easy to recognize her.Josie quivered, and her blood ran cold. "I've already suffered for what I had done to you, Sadie. Please let me go. I'm begging you!"Sadie frowned. Why did Josie react that way? She did not even say much."What's wrong with you, Josie?" Before Sadie could touch Josie, she crouched to the floor and cried while hugging her head."D-don't hit me. I promise to be good from now on!"Sadie was taken aback. She had seen Josie's arrogant side before. What did Josie go through to make her so scared?She tried to comfort Josie by crouching next to her. She said softly, "No one is going to hit you here. Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you."They were both women. It was troubling for Sadie to

    Sadie clenched her fists so tight that her nails dug into her palm. She laughed sarcastically."You're ruthless, Connor."What do you want from me?" Connor smiled when he saw Sadie finally relenting. "I want to marry you."Sadie looked at Connor with bewilderment. "I'm already married. I have a husband.""Stop reminding me about it every time, Sadie. I don't have a great temper. It upsets me to hear that so often. If I get upset, the children might suffer."Leave with me and marry me in three days. I promise to let your children go after that."Connor had lost all patience, so he gave Sadie an ultimatum."You don't have much time to think about this, Sadie. I won't force you if you're not willing to marry me."He turned to leave after that. Sadie tensed up. "I agree to it, but let my children go first!" Connor stopped frowning. He turned to say to Sadie with a smile, "You have no right to negotiate with me, Sadie."I'll let them go after you get married to me."Sadie clen

    Sadie jumped with fright. "What are you doing here, Mr. Aldrin?"Connor smiled at everyone he met, but Sadie felt like he was hiding a dark side, for some reason."That's a strange question to ask, Ms. Ellis. This hotel belongs to Dayone Corporation, and I'm the boss here. Is there anything strange about me being here?"Sadie had no idea how to respond to the question Connor posed to her."It was a slip of the tongue. My husband should be waiting for me downstairs, so I won't take up any more of your time."Sadie felt Connor had a sinister air about him. She did not want to be alone with him.Before she could leave, Connor grabbed her arm."It's only been three years, Sadie, yet you've already forgotten about me?"I've missed you for the past three years. How can you forget about me?"Connor finally ceased his pretence as no one was around.Sadie's eyes widened in shock. She knew there was something familiar about Connor. There was something about him that struck her, even th

    Sadie frowned at the note. She only snapped out of it when Blake came home.Even though they had been married for three years, Blake was still as in love with Sadie as before."What's wrong? Why do you look so glum?"Sadie took the note she found in the children's bag. It made her anxious."Who do you think wrote this note, Blake? Who's coming back? What does this person want by placing the note in their bag?"I'm fine to turn a blind eye to most things, but not when it comes to our children."Blake held Sadie's hand and tried to comfort her. "Don't worry. The note must have gotten there by mistake."I'll get my secretary to check the security footage of the school. If you're really worried, let the children stay home. I'll ask the teacher to teach their classes here at home."Sadie agreed to Blake's plan, but she still could not sleep well that night.A woman's sixth sense was pretty accurate, and Sadie could not shake the feeling that something was going to happen.The next
