Sweet Revenge: Jace & Emerald のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 51 - チャプター 60

WARNING!! MATURE CONTENT!! “Let’s talk Emerald.” “We’re done talking. How many times do I need to tell you that?” she replied as she put down her hair blower. She’s still in her robe and is worried that something might happen to them. “Is Liam still staying here?’ “Yes.” “Tell him to get his place to stay in. I didn’t like him here.” “This is my house, Jace. If I let you come here, why would I not let him?” “Do you know how much I think ab

“That's all I found out about Ms. Morgan's nanny,” Ronnie said.“Ember Ferguson,” Jace said in a low voice, thinking. “She's wealthy, being the only heiress of the Ferguson Telecom; why wouldn't she want to marry Mr. Landers, who is also a billionaire?”“The only reason I could think of is that she's in love with someone else.”“Ronnie, I haven't seen Mr. Landers; what does he look like?” Jace asked. “I don't know either. He always avoided the press and never showed up for any invitations to any business gatherings. He kept himself low profile, and even his relatives were unaware of his appearance.”“Is it possible for you to get a photo of him?”“I will try, Mr. Higginson. But I can't promise you a good result.”“Tell me anything you need, and I will provide you. I want to know whether he was behind the disappearance of Emerald's nanny.”“Copy that, Mr. Higginson.” Ronnie got up from his seat and left. Jace was left in his living room. It was Sunday afternoon, and he stayed in his

Emerald’s heart raced as she frantically scanned the playground, her eyes wide with panic. The cheerful laughter of other children felt like a cruel mockery of her fear. Ace had disappeared from her sight. Just moments ago, he was playing on the slide with his nanny, watching over him.“Liam, we need to find him. We need to find Ace!” Her voice trembled, tears welling as she grabbed her friend’s arm. Liam nodded and placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder.“We will, M. We’ll find him,” Liam replied, calm but firm. Once again, he scanned the area, his mind racing through possible scenarios.Young Morgan's mind was a whirl of dark possibilities. She took deep breaths, trying to calm herself. Her baby boy, her sweet little Ace—where could he be? She felt an overwhelming sense of guilt and helplessness, her chest tight with fear. Each second that ticked by felt like an eternity.They've searched everywhere, starting at the slide where Ace’s shoes were found. Emerald's hands were tremblin

Emerald sat on the edge of the bed, her heart aching, as she watched Ace sleep. His small chest's soft rise and fall brought a fleeting sense of peace, but her mind was a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. She knew she had to talk to him to understand what he wanted. It felt almost unbearable, but she had to face the possibility that he might want to live with his father. With a deep breath, she gently stroked his hair. “Ace, baby, it's morning. Mommy needs to talk to you.” Ace stirred, his eyes flicking open. He looked up at her with sleepy confusion, then sat up, rubbing his eyes. “Mommy? What is it?” Emerald smiled, trying to keep her voice calm. “I need to ask you something very important. Do you think you can talk to me for a bit?”

Liam left Emerald’s mansion after their discussion. Although he was happy for young Morgan, he also felt hurt when he saw her kiss Jace. He knew he would never have a chance to get the woman he loved, but he hoped that young Higginson would be able to take care of her. He stepped into the bustling bar, the heart of nightlife, where the energy is intense and the atmosphere is lively. It was an old brick building that housed the bar; its exterior was modest and unassuming, but inside, it was a different world. Most people are dressed to impress. Women in stylish dresses or chic tops and skirts, accessorized with statement jewelry and high heels, move gracefully through the crowd. Men sport a range of attire, from casual button-downs to trendy t-shirts paired with jeans or chinos, some donning fashionable sneakers and others opting for smart leather shoes.
