After a rollercoaster year of joy and loss, Noah Darius Dalton has handed the divorce papers to Averill Hursen, his wife. He married her because of the child she was carrying but now that the child is dead, he has no reason to stay married to the woman. Averill left without a word. Leaving Noah confused with his feelings after dating her for a month. And what made him even more mad was when he learned about her pregnancy again. She's, for the second time around, carrying his child. Noah knew what to do that time, still confused whether he had feelings for the woman, he looked for her in the pretense of searching for his child.
View MoreNoah woke up early and left the villa before even Averill got up from bed. He left a note on the table and a massive box in the living room. He drove to a building not too far from the villa he bought. âYou look relaxed. Are you even sure about this?â Karl asked him. Brian and the gang are also there, preparing for Noahâs wedding. The man in his white tuxedo smirked, âNever been sure in my whole life, Karl.â âTsk.â He went to his stylist and asked for a perm. Brian went beside Noah and tapped his shoulder, âYou need to buy me a yacht if she doesnât say yes.â âThat woman loves me. You buy me twenty-five percent of the shares in your new business.â âThatâs prettyâ tsk, deal. Might as well be your wedding gift.â He followed and excused himself after receiving a call. Noah smirked, realizing who called his casanova friend. âClayton,â âI will attend your marriage. I just need to finish this.â âThatâs why you should have told her what you felt.â He stared at Noah and ignored him after
Averillâs POVI was busy reading through the reports about my hotel. I had left it to Leon for a long while. Funny how I told him he was fired, but he kept coming to the company and managed it while I was busy doing things for myself. I would have never come this far without him.âCoffee?â Leon asked. He placed a hot coffee macchiato on my desk. He could pass as a barista, if not a lawyer. I thanked him without looking at him because my eyes were still busy reading. I canât help but focus on these things.âI heard about his proposal,â I stopped scanning through the files, looked at him, and smiled. I raised my brows, waiting for what he would say next. âWhy did you reject him?ââDo I need a reason not to?ââYou love himâââHowâd you know that?â I smiled. Leon stared at me before looking away, putting down his coffee. âWhen you fired me, you were too emotional. Arenât you being emotional as well when you rejected his marriage proposal? I thought you loved him and that you sacrificed
âI love you,â Noah muttered as he kissed her deeply. He kissed her passionately, moving his lips gently as he caressed the back of her head. Noah continued until the two of them were out of breath.He stared at her golden eyes, âI love you, Avi.â he repeated, claiming her lips once more. âI love you,â he whispered between their kisses. Averill tried to push him, but he gently pulled her to his chest.He hugged her and buried her face in his body. âI love you.â Again, he told her. Averill still has yet to respond to him. Noah loosened the hug as he gently held her shoulders.Noah looked at her and wiped the tears that fell from her eyes. His thumb gently against her cheek as tears fell from his pitch black eyes as well⌠like crystals under that sunny afternoon⌠they cried.âA-Are you c-crying?â Niana approached the two of them. Noah and Averill looked at their daughter, who was also about to cry, confused as to why her parents were weeping. They smiled, gently slipping their hands agai
Noahâs POV I stared at my daughter, sleeping soundly on my lap. She had played all day with the dog we brought from Hawaii. Weâre currently in the UK. Thankfully, she wasnât looking for her mother much. I just wonât have any more excuses had she asked once more. I have a hunch on where Averill might be, but I want to give her more time. I donât know why she had not even met with Niana. I know she loves our daughter. I know she loves her with all her heart and wonât abandon her. No way that is not the Averill that I know. The Averill that I fell in love with has so many flaws⌠but sheâs not an irresponsible mother. Sheâs sometimes selfless to the point where even I would pity her helplessness. Averill is a woman who would not care even though sheâs hurt. And sheâs also the type of woman who would stand firm if anyone vital to her was hurt. I did not love her because she was perfect but rather because she was so perfectly imperfect that even though her flaws were visible, her pure
Averill woke up with someone stroking her hair. âNoah?â Surprised, she saw Noah beside her, sitting on the bed. Looking at her, smiling with his teeth. âGood morning, Avi.â âAvi?â Averill looked at Leon, who was currently feeding her. It had been a day since she was admitted. She fainted after donating blood to Noah while she was injured. âDid Noah wake up?â Leon shook his head. He tried feeding her again, but Averill looked away. âYou need to eat.â âI did my best. Why is he not waking up?â âHis body needs rest, Averill. And you do too. Eat, I am begging you.â âIâm not hungry.â Leon sighed at her response. After fainting from fatigue, she did not sleep a wink overnight. She would have stayed by Noahâs door if she had not fallen to the floor. Waiting for the man to wake up. Noahâs grandfather came later that evening. He deliberately stopped Averill from coming to Noahâs room. He was so mad when he heard what had happened to his grandson. âI told you enough to get away from my
Leon drove as fast as he could when he heard the news about Averill. He could not believe they had just left the woman there. He heard about Noahâs condition but still! Was it too hard to get the woman as well? Leon parked recklessly in front of the cafe. Some men barged in his direction, attacking him with metal pipes, but he was way faster than these men. He punched and kicked and pushed⌠It took him five minutes before he could enter the facility. And his blood boiled when he saw Averill looking so lost in one corner. He scanned the room, and there was Kyle, looking at Isabella fiercely. Looked like they had an argument. âWHO KILLED MY DAUGHTER?!â Isabella shouted. Leon looked around again and saw a woman lying dead on the floor. âSo she died. What a waste.â Leon thought, thinking about the charges he could have done to put the woman forever behind bars. âYouâre still thinking of Yanna in this situation? For Pete's sake, Isabella! They are holding you as their hostage!â âI do
Kyleâs eyes were sharp as he stared at the womanâs crying face. His jaw clenched as he gritted his teeth. He could feel his muscles tremble in anger. Why is another man touching what was his? Why are they touching Isabella? What is going on here? He could not think straight. He stared at the gun in his hand and looked at the three people that were left on his side. In an instant, he pointed the gun at them. Karl was alarmed by his sudden movement but was immediately caught off guard when Kyle killed the three remaining people on his side. Why? Why did he kill them? Karl could not wrap it around his head. Why would Kyle Jackson kill these people when they are his allies? This is crazy. Kyle Jackson is an absolute madman with lots of screws lost in his head. Karl signaled his men to approach Averill and Noah. Kyle is yet to notice them. He is still busy looking at the men which he killed. âOne more step, and youâll follow them.â Karlâs men halted. Was he watching? Jackson was watch
Averill looked at him with wide eyes. She could feel her entire body go cold as she trembled hands touched Noah. âAre you okay?â Noah asked, still worrying about the woman, albeit the circumstance. âWhat are you even saying? Why did you do that?â She cried, Averill saw Yanna pointing the gun at her, but Noah was too fast to cover her from the bullet. And in a blink of an eye. Everything happened. âNo⌠no⌠no, no, no, NO!!â Everyone looked at Kyle when he started acting odd. His eyes shake as he stares at the two people on the floor. One is covered in blood while the other is covered in tears. Kyleâs hands were shaking. He pulled his hair and glared at Yanna. âYou! âHow dare you!â he shouted. âHow dare you touch my target!â His eyes were dark as he pinned his nails on Yannaâs arms. He could see nothing but the fact that Yanna pulled the trigger against Averill, and it hit Noah. His targets were touched by another person. Kyle is this type of crazy person. He never wanted anyone t
Mason did not move, Kyle was too swift that he did not notice him in front of him and grabbed his gun. They fought with each other as Kyleâs men started swarming with the other men that were left in Noahâs group. Chaos started to sip in, plates and glasses were shattered. Tables were wrecked. Chairs were thrown.It was total chaos inside while the men fought each other. Noah hugged Averill in one corner. âYou should have not said that. You were provoking him!â âWhy are we here, Noah?ââWhat?ââWeâre here to get Yanna. But what are you doing?â Averill looked at him. She pushed him away from her. âStop protecting me. When we learned about Kyle, we expected this already, thatâs why we asked Shiloah to bring her to New York.ââAverillâââIf youâre gonna tell me to be careful. I am. I am already doing that so stop being a coward. We just need Yanna. Youâve let her loose for so long.â She stood up and walked away, she grabbed a stick and went her way to Yanna.Kyle was there, sitting by th
