"Today marks three years of our marriage, yet you've never looked into my eyes, hugged me, or shown any physical intimacy. Your father and everyone else think I'm barren! No one would believe that we've never been intimate. I'm tired of living this lie! I'll have to tell your father the truth; perhaps they'll stop blaming me!" Aurora exclaimed angrily, her frustration boiling over. "If you dare breathe a word of that to my father, mark my words; it'll be your last day. I'll personally strangle you, you old hag!" Caspian threatened, pointing a menacing finger at her. Aurora was treated disdainfully by everyone; the man she got married to never for once showed her love, not until she got a secret revealed to her by her grandparents. She planned to get revenge secretly on those that have hurt her in the past while working towards achieving her most incredible dreams and desires!
View MoreAnnabele's eyes opened in shock; her heart beat in succession as she tried to understand why Caspian had requested that she kneel and apologize to Aurora. To her, it didn't make any sense, and it was a humiliating thing for her to do. She baffled with the thoughts of if Aurora had told him everything that happened years ago. That she was the one that drugged Aurora’s drink years back, and what's the orchestrator of their divorce, just all because she could have Caspian? The thoughts made her head spin, and a scream of anger steamed up inside her. She couldn't keep quitting anymore; she needed to know the reason why Caspian wanted to humiliate her and wanted her to apologize to Aurora in public; she felt like it was nothing but an absolute disgrace. “Why?” Annabel demanded furiously, her voice raised, looking deeply into Alton's eyes, then back to Aurora. “Why exactly do you want to humiliate me like this in front of this bitch?” She spat out words, obviously at Aurora, with deep ha
Caspian sat in silence, his mind filled with the thoughts of Aurora's demand. He bowed his head as the weight of Aurora's words pressed him down. The thought of how a prestigious CEO like himself will all of a sudden turn into an errand boy hurt his pride and self-esteem really hard. He tightened his fist, and he tried to reduce his thoughts; he was at a loss for words and didn't know how to respond to Aurora. Without uttering a word, he stood up with his pride degraded from the seat and walked towards the door; his movements were hard. However, as he made his way to the door, Aurora's voice echoed deeply and sharply behind him. “Don't forget, Caspian, you only have three days to get back to me!” Hearing that, he halted his steps to decide what Aurora had said, still maintaining his position without turning to Aurora.Caspian tightened his lips, clenched his fist without uttering any words, finally made a move, and walked out of Aurora's office. Aurora adjusted herself perfectly in
The following morning, Caspian got dressed in a plain white shirt. Tugging its shirt in black trousers, his tie was well knotted, even though stress was obviously displayed on his face. He still looks extremely classic, looking every inch like a CEO. He walked elegantly to Apex Group, his heart pounding. He hoped that today he would achieve the reason he visited Apex Group. As he approached the receptionist, as usual, she greeted him with respect and immediately placed a call through to Aurora to confirm if she had an appointment with Caspian.“Hi ma'am, CEO Caspian is here; may I confirm if you have an appointment with him?” Her voice echoed deeply into Aurora's ear. Caspian's eyes became widely opened; he instantly knew the call would yield no positivity; Aurora wouldn't allow him in. However, if what he had envisaged was right, he had other plans. “I don't want to see him; do not allow him in; else you lose your job,” Aurora threatening as her voice echoed deeply into the recepti
Aurora maintained her gaze at Caspian, already losing her temper. “What do you want, Caspian?” “Who is this boy's father?” Caspian responded with a quivering voice. As he swayed his gaze to Aurora, then back to Rome. “It's none of your business, and have you forgotten you had a low sperm count when we were together? So how possible would you impregnate me?” Aurora's face turned cold as he responded shabbily to Caspian. Caspian became shocked, obvious to Aurora and Ralph, who sat helpless, still holding firmly to Rome's end. He was speechless and decided to watch the two speak. Caspian immediately remembered years ago that he was diagnosed with low sperm count, he recalled that he didn't even finish his treatment. He got more hit by the realization. He wanted to immediately disappear from Aurora and Ralph's presence, as he felt he was being so humiliated already. However, as he stared at Rome, the boy striking resemblance to him couldn't make him stop, couldn't make him leave thei
Caspian was stuck in the car, paralyzed by the news that displayed vividly on the small screen of his car. He gawked his eyes at the image of the news playing on the screen right in front of him. The image of the burned warehouse filled the tiny space; he was crushed and couldn't believe his multi-million dollar goods were gone in a twinkle of an eye. He lay his head helplessly on the wheel of his car. His heart crushed more as the thought of what he had just battled just in days almost ran him insane. His father was just sent abroad for medical surgery, his ex-wife was back, and he couldn't believe that Aurora had changed so much. She wasn't the timid young lady he once knew; she is now a sophisticated young woman with enormous power. He groaned in pain as he wished to have her back. Coupled with his terrible sad news. He knew right away he had gone bankrupt, and the only way to help him now not to be ruined more financially is for him to merge his companies with this most powerful
Aurora gawked at Caspian irritatedly as the thought of her three-year marriage to him flashed through her mind.“Why are you in that seat, Aurora?” Caspian asked again, pointing his finger at her. Aurora remained still, unmoved by Caspian's rhetorical question and his shocked expression. She continued to stare at him, deeply irritated and at a loss for words. Without hesitation, she dialed the security post line.“I need two of you, right away!” she ordered before dropping the call. She resumed her gaze at Caspian, who was already fuming and growing impatient with her silence. He couldn't believe that the woman sitting in the seat of the overall director of the most powerful company in Montana was the ex-wife he had treated disdainfully for three years.He moved closer to Aurora, who still refused to speak, and was about to pull out a chair to sit when the door beeped. Aurora used a remote control to glide the door open, and two giant security guards walked in, bowing to her.“We are
Annabel walked down to Harrison's bed. Immediately, she felt infuriated and felt like strangling him. She drew the chair in the ward so close to Harrison that she could hide under it and inject him with the poisonous syringe."Hey, you Jack! I know you detest me; part of the reason I am doing this! Why the hell will you not just die? Why do you want to make my baby a pauper before your death? I'm sorry, I have to do this; you need to die!" Annabel said in a shallow tone to Harrison. Harrison was highly unconscious, lying lifeless and supported by oxygen.Annabel immediately brought out the syringe and was about to inject it deeply into Harrison's right hand, right below the bedspread, when the ward's door opened wide."Hey, mistress! You are still here. You will need to excuse me. I need to give him some medications and some care. However, it's late, and we don't entertain visitors in the ward at night. This is a severe patient. I'm sorry, you will need to take your leave now," the nu
"So, baby, would you eat now? The dining table has been set. Come, let's eat," Annabel said, pulling Caspian from his seat."You need strength for tomorrow's task," Annabel said, pulling Caspian from his seat again, and he followed her to the dining table. His heart was filled with thoughts of both his father and Aurora."Whose child is with Aurora? I need to see her and the child. I can't believe she is unmarried. Where the hell did she get that child from?" Caspian was lost in thought as he sat in his chair, watching Annabel dish out food for him."Come on, Caspian, eat up, please," Annabel encouraged. Caspian picked up his spoon and scooped the white rice down his throat. "I need to use the restroom now!" Annabel said, excusing herself, and immediately left the dining room. She went to her room and dialed Ralph's number."Hey, Ralph, where are you? Can we meet up in an hour?" Annabel asked."Hey, madam, of course, we can meet," Ralph responded. Although he didn't like Annabel at f
It's been two months, and Caspian has been extremely occupied with his father's sickness despite how much he has spent on him. He didn't seem to see any changes and has spent a lot of money on it, but now his business is going down extremely. "Doctor Kain! What exactly can I do to make my father conscious and healthy? I don't want to lose him; he's the only family I have!" Caspian said to the doctor, crushing his hands together in frustration."I am so sorry, Mr. Caspian. We won't lose Mr. Harrison. The only way out is to fly him abroad. That's the only way he can get proper treatment for his lung cancer. He needs sophisticated and more powerful doctors and exceptionally high-tech tools to heal. We don't have adequate equipment here, and getting lungs would be hard here. We must do what is needed as soon as possible," Dr. Kain advised. Dr. Kain is the new doctor at the hospital, employed two years after the death of Dr. Edward. Since Harrison became unconscious, Dr. Kain has been in
