1st class hospital,

Jayden was rushed to the hospital, and his condition was quite alarming. The doctors stated it could have been worse if he had arrived even a minute later.

Everyone was on edge—old Master Hunt, Mr. Hunt, Mrs. Audrey, Robert, and Cara, who had no choice but to come with everyone because she was in the mansion when they received the news—were in front of the intensive care unit, watching through the glass window as the doctors attended to Jayden.

Jayden was found to have nasal fractures, two broken ribs, and a severely shifted jaw. His left eye was also badly bruised, and some part of his face had to be stitched.

“I told you he was a monster. Look at what he did to his brother because of that cheap slut… What kind of sin did I commit to give birth to such a devil? Would he only be satisfied if he ruins this family?”

Mrs. Audrey sniffed in between her sobs; her eyes were red and swollen because she had been crying for about an hour now, and anytime she opened her

    “Boss, it's urgent,” Mike's voice came through the door. He was about to stand up and hear what Mike had to report when Aria held his hand. “Don't leave!” She cried, and Kayden turned to look at her in puzzlement, his frown increasing. “Ariana, did something happen in my absence? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Is the baby worrying you? Are you hurt? Who did it?” Kayden growled, lifting her chin to check her neck, grabbing her shoulders, and turning her around to check for any visible wounds on her body. Seeing him look so worried because of her, Aria began to feel guilty for snooping around. ‘Was she being unreasonable for doubting him all the time?’ “No, I'm fine, I just…” Kayden yanked her towards him, wrapping his strong arms around her as he revelled in the feeling of having her close to him.For a second, he had been so worried that something had happened to her in his mansion—that he had failed to protect her. "So why didn't you go down to eat? You know you nee

    When Kayden told Samantha to choose the location for their dinner, he didn't expect it to be a small diner for hot pot and noodles. Samantha directed Kayden to an empty table at the back, and they both sat in their seats. “I'm sorry for bringing you to such a shabby place. I used to come here to eat in the past whenever I was feeling sad, and because this place holds good memories for me, I thought I should bring you here. I totally forgot that someone like you might not be comfortable in an environment like this.” “Someone like me?” Kayden asked with raised brows. Even though he wasn't used to coming to places like this, he had no aversion to it. “Rich, powerful, successful,” Samantha began to list as the auntie who was in charge of the diner approached them. “Hello Sam, it's been a while since I saw you. How have you been?” She asked with a hint of familiarity in her voice. “I'm fine, Auntie. What about you?” Samantha asked. “Just as usual,” the woman said and turned to Kayde

    Aria wanted to walk away, but before she could stop herself, her hand had already moved, and the door pushed open as soon as her hand touched it. ‘It was open!’ Her heart thumped wildly in fear as she took in the slightly parted door, her feet frozen on the spot and refusing to move. She stood there for about a minute, but it felt like a year had passed as she struggled with her thoughts. She knew Kayden had told her the guard was just overexaggerating, but her instincts told her that this room carried all her answers about Kayden. After hesitating for another thirty seconds, her curiosity only increased, so she stepped into the room and switched on her phone torchlight to find the switch. She soon found the switch and turned on the light, brightening up the room. Aria didn't see anything strange after lighting up the room; it looked like a study room with bookshelves on each side stacked with thick files. There was also a desk in the center of the room with a black leather chai

    Old Master Hunt had a shrewd smile on his lips as he gave Kayden a challenging look. However, his happiness was short-lived after Kayden opened his mouth to speak. “Why is Jayden's vote beneath Ryan Blake's name? He's not a shareholder of Hunt Corporation…” “Why isn't Jayden a shareholder of the Hunt Corporation? Does his being in the hospital make him lose his shares? I voted on his behalf because I'm his mother,” Mrs. Audrey said indignantly. Kayden smirked and turned to Mike, who had been standing by his side all this time. “Mike, you can distribute the document now,” Kayden said, and Mike obeyed. Mrs. Audrey saw the shocked look on everyone's faces as they flipped through the documents and snatched one from Mike before it was her turn. Her eyes bulged the more she read. “Impossible, this is impossible, Jayden will never sell his shares!” Mrs. Audrey yelled shrilly, losing her usual elegant composure before the shareholders. The papers in the brown envelope that Mike distri

    Earlier that day, After Andy was kicked out of the dining hall, Mike took it as his cue not to interrupt the lovebirds and went away to chat with some of the men. He had just begun to get comfortable in Tony and Martin's company when his phone started ringing.He saw it was Randy calling and immediately answered the phone.“Hey Randy, what happened…” “Are you with the boss? I've been calling his private phone, but he's not answering,” Randy interrupted Mike, sounding impatient. “Yeah, I'm still in the mansion. Why do you sound like that?” Mike asked. “Old Master Hunt has called for an emergency board meeting, and it will be held at 11:00 am. You must inform the boss. I think the old master wants to choose a new CEO,” Randy reported. “What?!” Mike exclaimed. However, he calmed down a second later and added. “Okay, I understand; I'll let the boss know immediately.” When Mike went back into the mansion, he saw that the boss and the madam were no longer together and he was heading

    As Mike was hesitating by the door, Andy, who had just entered, barged straight forward into the dining room carrying three boxes—a big one and two small ones on top—and a bouquet of red roses. The items had blocked his view, so he didn't see Kayden and Aria kissing passionately as Aria let out subtle moans. “Boss, the items you asked me to receive have arrived,” Andy said, lowering the items he was carrying. That was when he witnessed the X-rated scene in front of him. He blushed and fearfully tried to escape from there, but because he was flustered, he tripped on his foot and dropped one of the small boxes, making a thud sound. Aria pushed away from Kayden as if she had been scalded, and Kayden turned to glare at Andy. “Ahem… I didn't see anything, boss, truly,” Andy flusteredly explained, and Aria felt like digging a hole to hide in. She couldn't even lift her face; this was so embarrassing. “Leave them there and get out!” Kayden gritted out. Andy hurriedly complied and fle
