121 fixedAxel was so excited about the turn of events that happened that day that when he got home, he couldn’t contain his joy and called Ethan and Luke in a conference call. "Reese is now your girlfriend?!" They both exclaimed in unison after he told them. "Yes." He said, a smile touching his lips. He was also finding it hard to believe. "Where are you?" Luke quickly asked. "I am at home." He told him. "Why are you asking?""Because I am coming to your house right now." Luke said. "I’m coming too." Ethan quickly said.Before he could ask them not to come, they had already ended the call. They arrived at his house less than an hour later, and they met Axel in his study. "Congratulations man." Luke and Ethan said in unison as they approached him. He was sitting on a chair beside his desk, working on his computer, when they walked in. He glanced at them briefly before returning his gaze to his computer. "You guys don’t have work to do?"They walked to the couch, which was s

Axel wasn’t at the company when Reese got there. She quickly put in a call to him, but his line wasn’t reachable. She tried several times but still couldn’t reach him.Dashing out of the company, she rushed to his mansion to look for him, but he wasn’t there either. His domestic workers informed her that he hasn’t been home since he left for work in the morning, and she jumped full steam on the worry train. Where could he be?Luke might know about his whereabouts, she thought, and quickly put in a call to Luke, but to no avail. She became worried. Really worried. A lot of thoughts started running through her mind—negative thoughts.He was really hurt after what happened earlier, and she was not going to forgive herself if anything ever happened to him.With her chest heavy with guilt, regret, and worries, she made her way back home, hoping and wishing nothing had happened to Axel.When she arrived at their house, Lucy noticed her downcast mood and quickly wrapped her arms around her,

Over the next few days, Axel recovered, and everything was back to normal. Reese stopped receiving visits from her ex—it seemed the beating he got from Axel was worth it. Reese was in her office, going through the company’s email, when she came across an email sent by Mr. Smith—a potential client that they have been trying to land a deal with but to no avail. The content of the email was good news. He had asked to meet with Axel at an Italian family restaurant that was on the outskirts of the city to discuss the terms of the deal they had been trying so hard to land—a deal that would add millions to the company’s name. "Finally!" She beamed as she leapt to her feet and rushed to Axel’s office. He was working on his computer when she pushed the door open and slipped inside. He hoisted his head up, and when he noticed the delighted look on her face, he asked. "Good news?""Yes." She beamed as she approached his desk. "Guess what?"He raised a brow. "You are pregnant?"She laughed.

It’s been one month since Axel was involved in the ghastly motor accident, and Reese has been there with him through his recovery process. The culprit was caught and has since been incarcerated. It was William Thompson—the waiter who made a move on Reese at the restaurant—who was behind the accident. In his defense, he did it because Axel made his life miserable by making him lose his job, so he wanted to make him feel what misery felt like. He had been stalking him for a long time, and that was how he got to know that Perfect Touch was trying to strike a deal with Mr. Smith. When Axel was discharged from the hospital two weeks after the accident, Reese had to move in with him to take care of him. Reese and Tom, together, have handled the company well in his absence, and he was impressed at how they handled it. It was a tough phase of his life, but he has fully recovered now, and he couldn’t be more grateful for having Reese by his side as his woman and his personal assistant—he wou

Yesterday, when Axel made the decision that he wanted Reese to be his wife—he wanted to make her his—he decided to act on it and make it happen as soon as possible. Normally, when people make decisions like this, they think about them for a while before acting on them. But his case was different; there was nothing to think about. He knew what he wanted. And it was her.After Reese fell asleep last night, he gave a call to Lucy and told her about his plan. He couldn’t do it alone; he needed to involve her best friend. They went out that night to look for a ring, and they planned how the proposal was going to be executed.Axel sponsored Lucy’s flight to Pais, and he asked Reese to go ahead and represent him in the meeting with the Chinese clients because he wanted to get everything set up before she arrived. Luckily, he was able to do that with the help of Lucy."Axel… Lucy… What’s happening?" Reese asked, darting her gaze between the two of them as she approached them. A smile touc
