AIDEN—

"Master, I was able to trace her to a certain house. It was a gigantic building with massive fencing, so I couldn't walk in, much less drive in," said Jerald.

"Really? What is the color of the house? Let me see what you captured."

He extended his hand and gave me the camera to see things for myself.

I switched it on and took a closer look.

"Isn't this Daniel's compound?" My face frowned as I pondered.

I continued swiping to the next slides, and my doubts continued to diminish as the evidence became more valid.

On the last picture, I could clearly see the vehicle number of the car, which I was doubting to be truly Layla's. It was the sky blue Mercedes Maybach I bought for her a few years ago—on our first wedding anniversary—and I could remember the news buzzing on the internet with lots of ladies wishing to be in her position.

"Wasn't she with Drake and Josh?" The question echoed in my mind. Why haven't they come to me and told me their discovery, even if they didn't find anythi

  • The Billionaire's Forgotten Flame    42: He Was Blackmailing Us

    AIDEN—Upon arriving at my office, I glanced at the parking lot, but Wilson's car was not there. Meanwhile, it wasn't break time yet, and he wasn't on furlough."Where is he? Hadn't he told me he'd come to work today?" The question echoed in my mind.I glanced at my wrist to check the time, but my curiosity was piqued as I realized it was almost afternoon. When I left home this morning, I didn't come here straight but branched off somewhere for another thing.I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was wrong somewhere in this organization.I steered my car to my private parking spot and walked out, then strode forward to the building, ignoring the greetings of my subordinates.I wasn't in the mood to socialize with anyone, so I only waved at them without even looking at them.I went to the elevator to the first floor, where Morris' office is located. I wanted to make sure he hadn't come to work before pressing further on this issue.As expected, his office was locked when I go

    LAYLA—"I hope there's no problem, Ma? I should be at my duty post right now," he added."Of course, I know that, but have you forgotten I am part of your assigned duty?" His brows raised at the question."Didn't your master inform you that you will be aware of my moves? Is that escorting me anywhere I have to go?"He nodded in affirmation and said, "He did, Ma.""Good. So relax and drink what I offered you. You're still on your duty post."He let out a slight chuckle, lowering his gaze to the drink. He stared at it for some seconds before finally sipping the first one.I couldn't stop staring at his face, admiring his innocence."I actually called you for a confidential topic." I sipped from my glass cup and gently placed it back on the table right in front of us."I believe you're mature enough for this." I crossed my legs together and rested my back on the chair, my facial expression exuding seriousness."Of course, Ma. What am I here for if not to serve you and my master?" he rema

    LAYLA—As soon as I saw Aiden's car drive out of the compound, I breathed a sigh of relief. I needed to go meet Daniel and tell him everything that has been happening lately and also withdraw myself from this.Hastily, I went back to my room, abandoning the remaining food I was eating on the table. I couldn't wait to finish eating before doing this, as I was scared something might make him return.At least with Josh and Drake by my side, I would be permitted to leave, and even if Aiden eventually comes back, he won't find me at home to disrupt my plans.I sent for Anita, and she showed up within a few minutes."You sent for me, Ma," she said as she walked into my room, her hands folded at her back, her face exuding readiness for any task."Yes. How are you?" I remarked, forcing out a smile."Very fine, Ma. I hope he didn't find out." She asked, running her fingers through her hair with discomfort lacing all over her face.I chuckled softly, understanding her concern. She was scared be

    AIDEN—She couldn't answer the question but immediately tried to decline the call. I had to snatch the phone away from her and then glanced at the screen to observe, only to see Daniel's name boldly written on the screen.However, the number wasn't saved. The name was suggested by a contact detection app."Daniel again?" I blurted out with a low voice, my gaze still on the phone. Discomfort all over my face."Did you call him after I gave the phone to you?" My brows raised as I asked the question. My eyes stared deeply into her eyes with scrutiny."Not at all. I didn't do anything like that," she responded, shaking her head in dismissal.I was silent for some while before finally shaking my head. "It's fine. Take the phone and block his number," I requested, passing the phone back to her.I could see her hiccup dance as she swallowed hard. She collected the phone without argument, knowing that if she wants to maintain this peace that's been between us, she has to do just as I say."I'

    LAYLA—"You're pregnant?!" He repeated, his eyes looking bewildered, making me regret why I opened up to him about it."Yes, two weeks pregnant now," I responded, stuttering. I was scared to the core because I am actually not certain of who is responsible for the pregnancy since I met with Aiden and even Daniel the same week I conceived."It's okay. That's actually good news. That means we're expecting a baby soon." He forced out a smile, and I must say this relieved me a whole lot.For the fact he found out about my affairs with Daniel, I assumed he'd deny it and accuse him of being responsible for it, but I was surprised when he made the next phrase.I smiled blushingly and replied, "Yeah, I'm happy too. I can't wait to have her.""Her?" His face frowned as he stared at me disdainfully."I'm sorry," I stuttered regretfully, withdrawing back a little out of discomfort. I shouldn't have said this."You can go now," he snapped, his gaze fixated on his phone.Quietly, I pulled the doork
