As Adrian and Karen continued to discuss their sinister plan, they failed to notice a quiet figure lingering in the shadows. The maid, who had been dusting the furniture, had stopped to listen; her ears perked up with interest.She had been working for the Ross family for years and had always been discreet, never prying into their personal affairs. But she knows Evan Knight very well; she paid for her son's education; he is a nice man. There was something about this conversation that sent a chill down her spine.She listened intently, her heart racing with every word. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. These two people were planning something truly evil.The maid knew she had to act fast. She couldn't just stand by and let them harm innocent people. She made a mental note to find a way to warn Evan and protect them from Adrian and Karen's sinister plans.As she continued to listen, she realized that she had stumbled upon something much bigger than she had initially thought. Th
As Aaron continued to excitedly share details about his castle, Evelyn's twin boys, Jacob and Jamie, tumbled in, their blond hair messy from sleep."Mommy, Mommy! We're hungry!" They chimed in unison, their bright blue eyes sparkling with mischief.Evelyn laughed and handed each of them a glass of orange juice. "Good morning, my little monkeys! How about some pancakes and scrambled eggs?"The twins cheered and climbed into their seats at the table, immediately starting to bicker over who got to sit next to Aaron.Bella smiled, feeling a sense of chaos wash over the kitchen. But it was a warm, comforting chaos, filled with the sounds of laughter.She met Jason's gaze. She hadn't expected him to show up, and certainly not so soon after their kiss.Evelyn, sensing the tension, jumped in to break the silence. "Of course, Jason! Come on in. We're just having a casual breakfast."Jason smiled and walked into the kitchen, his eyes never leaving Bella's face. "Thanks, Evelyn. I didn't mean to
Evelyn beamed with excitement, "Can you believe Jackson is finally coming home today? I've missed him so much!" She fidgeted with the throw pillows on the couch, rearranging them for what felt like the hundredth time.Bella smiled, happy to see her friend so joyful. "I know, it's been ages! The kids must be thrilled to have their dad back."Jason nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I'm sure they've missed him terribly. It's always tough when he's away on business trips."Evelyn checked her watch for what felt like the tenth time. "He said he'd be home by 5 pm. I hope he's not delayed again."Bella got up and walked over to Evelyn, giving her a reassuring hug. "He'll be home soon, Ev. Try to relax."Just then, the sound of children's laughter and shouts of excitement came from the next room. "Daddy's home! Daddy's home!" The twins chimed in unison. They saw him through the window.Evelyn's face lit up, and she rushed to the window, pulling back the curtains to see Jackson's car pulling into th
Bella's eyes widened in shock as Aaron ran towards him, his little arms open wide. "Daddy!" Aaron exclaimed, throwing himself into Evan's arms.Evan's face crumpled as he scooped up Aaron, holding him tightly. "My son," he whispered, his voice trembling with emotion. "My little boy."The room was silent, with all eyes fixed on the emotional reunion. Bella looked stunned, her eyes fixed on Evan and Aaron. Jackson's expression was a mix of confusion and concern.Evelyn, who had been watching from the sidelines, stepped forward. "Evan, what's going on?"First of all, tell me, Aaron, who told me this man is your father?""I saw the pictures of you and Daddy Mommy; please forgive Daddy.""Wait... what... pictures? When and where, and why didn't you tell me?" Bella asked in surprise,Evan looks down,"You already met Aaron and easily won him over; I can't believe Evan, you could do that, first my company and now my son. ""Bella, I had no bad intentions; I just wanted to tell my son that I
The air was thick with tension as they stood there, the only sound was Aaron's gentle breathing. It was as if time had stood still, leaving only the three of them, suspended in a moment of raw emotion.Jason was about to enter the room to look at Aaron, but his step halted when he saw Evan and Bella.Jason's hand hesitated on the doorknob, his eyes fixed on the scene before him. Evan and Bella stood frozen, their gazes locked in an intense moment of emotional connection. The air was charged with a mix of emotions—love, longing, and uncertainty.Jason's eyes narrowed, his mind processing what he was seeing. He had always been protective of Bella and Aaron, and Evan's sudden reappearance had raised his hackles. But now, witnessing the raw emotion between Evan and Bella, Jason's stance softened ever so slightly.He didn't want to intrude on this moment; he didn't want to break the fragile connection between the two. So left.*******************************Evelyn approached Jason, who wa
Jason's heart still raced when he thought about it, his pulse pounding in his veins like a drumbeat. He couldn't help but wonder what would have happened if they had taken that moment further, if they had explored the feelings that had been simmering beneath the surface for so long.But life had other plans, and Evan's return had changed everything. Now, Jason was left to wonder what could have been, his heart still longing for the one person he couldn't have."Destiny brings someone together with a purpose; every person's coming and going in life is pre-determined; it cannot be changed.""You should sleep," Bella said to Evan."I'll stay with Aaron.""Okay."Bella walks out of Aaron's room, but she sees Evelyn in front of her with disappointment in her eyes.Evelyn walks away and Bella follows her; both come to the living room.Bella followed Evelyn to the living room, sensing a heavy atmosphere between them. As they entered the room, Evelyn turned to face her, her eyes filled with a
Adrian and Karen were alone in that dark room."Now is not the right time; the police are looking for you; till now it must be hidden from Evan, also that you have escaped from jail. We have to wait." Karen saidAdrian's eyes narrowed, his gaze piercing through the dimly lit room. "I've been waiting for years, Karen. I need to see this through to finally take Revenge." He set his glass down, his voice taking on a menacing tone. "Evan thinks he's won, but he has no idea what's coming for him."Karen leaned forward, her voice low and urgent. "I understand your impatience, Adrian, but we can't risk everything now. But hurry, ruin our chances. We need to lay low and wait for the perfect moment to strike."Adrian's jaw clenched, his fists tightening. "Fine. But I better not have to wait much longer. I'll take care of Evan, and then... then Bella."Karen's expression remained calm, but a flicker of concern danced in her eyes. She knew Adrian's obsession with Bella. She needed to keep him in
Evan poured himself a cup of coffee and took a seat next to Bella at the breakfast table. He noticed she was staring at her plate, her usual morning chatter absent."Hey, everything okay?" Evan asked, trying to sound casual.Bella nodded, still not looking up. "Yeah, just tired.""You can talk to me, Bella.""Evan, stop it, stop being like my husband; we are not together, and this isn't normal, " she almost shouted."But Bella.""But what? What do you want? Run to you after what you did in the past; its not going to happen, Evan; damage is done and it won't fix; you are Aaron's father; you have right on him, and I won't snatch your right, but don't try to part of my life. Please leave Evan; Aaron is safe here; we are here for him; and I can take care of my son. You want to meet him; you can whenever you want. I won't stop; just leave now." Bella said firmly.Evan's eyes widened, taken aback by Bella's outburst. He had expected her to be upset, but the intensity of her emotions caught
