Yes 2024-05-05 19:24 active 742 0 980564607010924 🔥🔥 Click to Read 👉🏻👉🏻 I&#039;m pregnant.<br /> I can&#039;t believe this. Josh and I are going to have a baby.<br /> But I didn&#039;t get a chance to tell him the news. He&#039;s gone.<br /> He&#039;s gone, and left me with our baby growing in my stomach.<br /> He left me.<br /> <br /> Four years later, on my friend’s wedding.<br /> &quot;Who is the last groomsmen?&quot; Rebecca asked clearly not seeing the look on my face.<br /> &quot;Josh,&quot; Elena said the one name that made my world come crashing down.<br /> This is going to be a wonderful wedding.<br /> ___________<br /> It has officially been four years since Josh left me and all his friends and family here in San Diego. A lot has changed. My beautiful daughters, Brynlee Reese and Keegan Ryder, are now three years old. My dad died from brain cancer last year after battling long enough to see his granddaughters turn two. He loved them more than anything. It&#039;s been hard for us, especially my mom, but we&#039;re getting by. I graduated from the University of San Diego last year with a teaching degree in English, and am going on my second year of teaching at my old high school, Fremont High School. Jordyn, my 17 year old sister, is a junior there.<br /> Ever since my pregnancy, I&#039;ve had help from my family, Josh&#039;s family, and our friends. I couldn&#039;t really hide Josh&#039;s daughters from his parents since the girls are their granddaughters, and they promised not to tell him. Let&#039;s just say that they weren&#039;t too pleased with how Josh left. I&#039;ve tried to tell Josh about Brynlee and Keegan, but he doesn&#039;t answer any of my calls or I chickened out. Cory and Tyler have offered to tell him since he actually keeps in contact with them, along with his family, but I want him to hear it from me. Now, I think it&#039;s a little too late to tell him especially since he&#039;s happy on his own. He&#039;s off playing professional baseball for the New York Yankees while dating multiple girls, according to the gossip sites.<br /> Josh&#039;s sister, Delaney, got married last year at a destination wedding that only included close family members. I was invited since the girls are her nieces, but I declined the invitation knowing I would have to see him. She is now a pediatrician while her husband, Landon Gray, took over his father&#039;s oil company. My best friend, Elena Pratt, just graduated from nursing school and started her new job at the local hospital. She is also currently engaged to Tyler Stephens, Josh and I&#039;s best friend. They&#039;ve been dating since our junior year of high school. Tyler works alongside Landon as the financial manager. Cory Sutton, Josh and I&#039;s other best friend, is now a gym teacher and baseball coach at Fremont High School. He was suppose to become a professional baseball player like Josh, but he suffered a serious shoulder injury which ended his playing days. Teaching was always his backup.<br /> The continuous jumping on my bed followed by loud giggles disturbed my sleep. My eyes fluttered open to see two toddlers wide awake.<br /> &quot;Mommy!&quot; Keegan screamed as she jumped onto me with the intention of a hug. Her knotted brown hair fell to the sides of her face as her big brown eyes gleamed with excitement. Brynlee continued jumping as her blonde hair bounced with her.<br /> &quot;Good morning to you girlies too,&quot; I responded hugging Keegan as Brynlee cuddled to my side. &quot;What do you girls want for breakfast?&quot;<br /> &quot;WAFFLES!&quot; They both squealed jumping from the bed as they ran out of my bedroom. I then got up from the comfort of my bed sheets and put my fuzzy gray robe on over my pajamas that consisted of shorts and an old t-shirt. When I reached the kitchen, the girls were there digging the Eggo waffles out of the freezer.<br /> &quot;Can you put the box on the counter for me?&quot; I asked as I pulled out the toaster from one of the many cabinets. Keegan did as I told her and then ran to the living room with Brynlee following behind. She then turned on the TV to their favorite show, Doc McStuffins. I put three waffles into the toaster and waited for them to pop back out when they were done.<br /> Looking over at the girls brought back memories. I was absolutely shocked when I found out I was having twins.<br /> I laid down waiting for the doctor to enter while my mom sat in the nearby chair. I anxiously played with my long painted nails looking down at my small bump. Soon enough the doctor came into the room.<br /> &quot;Hello, I&#039;m Dr. Valente. You must be Sabrina and her mom,&quot; she greeted shaking my mom&#039;s hand then moving over to me. &quot;Are we ready to see the little one?&quot;<br /> I nodded my head as she instructed what to do before putting the gel on my stomach. She had the screen pointed towards her allowing me to only see the shocked expression on her face.<br /> &quot;What&#039;s wrong?&quot; I asked suddenly worried.<br /> &quot;Nothing&#039;s wrong, but it looks like you&#039;re having twins.&quot; The minute the words came out of her mouth, my jaw dropped to the floor.<br /> I&#039;m having two babies.<br /> The sudden sound of waffles popping out of the toaster brought me back to reality. I began to fix me and the girls a plate before calling them over to the dining table. As they scooped pieces of the waffle into their mouth, I got a text from Elena.<br /> Are you on your way??<br /> Yes but we might be a little late.<br /> I completely lost track of time and now we&#039;re going to be late for Elena&#039;s meeting with her wedding planner. Since I&#039;m the maid of honor, she wants me there too.<br /> It&#039;s currently 10:25, and we have to be at her house at 10:30 which is a 7 minute drive. Great.<br /> &quot;Girls, go brush your teeth and then come to your bedroom,&quot; I instructed grabbing the empty plates from the table and rinsing them off in the sink. They sprinted off to the bathroom while I went to pick out their outfits for today.<br /> I pulled two matching floral dresses from their closet as they came running in. I then grabbed their white converses and helped them get dressed.<br /> Once finished they ran to the living room where Doc McStuffins was still playing on the TV. While they were occupied, I ran over to my room to get myself dressed. I put on a simple black and white striped button up that was halfway tucked into light denim shorts. I then slipped on sandals before pulling my blonde hair into a high ponytail.<br /> After brushing my teeth and putting on my makeup, I got the girls out the apartment door and we headed to the car. I buckled them into their car seats and started the car. When Will My Life Begin from Tangled played non stop the whole car ride.<br /> We soon arrived to Elena and Tyler&#039;s house. Once Keegan was free from the buckles, she sprinted from where the car was parked on the driveway into Tyler&#039;s arms. As soon as he saw the car pull in, he slammed the door open ready to see his nieces. Brynlee, on the other hand, was fast asleep in her car seat. She stirred slightly when I picked her up, and then laid her head on my shoulder.<br /> &quot;Is someone sleepy?&quot; I asked in the voice you make when talking to a child. She then nodded with her eyes still closed making me chuckle.<br /> I entered into the house to see Elena and another woman sitting at the kitchen counter. They didn&#039;t notice me at first until Bryn let out a little yawn.<br /> &quot;Hey Sab, this is Rebecca, my wedding planner. Rebecca, this is my best friend and maid of honor, Sabrina,&quot; Elena introduced. I smiled at the red-headed woman in front of me. Rebecca had to be in her mid-forties, but she was in incredible shape.<br /> &quot;It&#039;s nice to meet,&quot; I greeted shaking her hand. &quot;I need to lay this little one down somewhere so I&#039;ll be right back.&quot;<br /> I walked out of the kitchen and into the living room were Keegan and Tyler were both watching Peppa Pig. I set Bryn on the couch and she immediately cuddled into Tyler&#039;s side.<br /> &quot;How&#039;s the little princess?&quot; Ty asked cuddling her.<br /> &quot;Sleepy,&quot; I answered. &quot;Well I need to go back to your fianc茅e so make sure they don&#039;t injure themselves.&quot;<br /> &quot;Are you still holding that against me?&quot;<br /> &quot;You dropped my daughter.&quot;<br /> &quot;So what do we have so far?&quot; I asked coming back into the kitchen after a small argument with Tyler. I won!<br /> &quot;The color scheme is going to be burgundy and gold. We&#039;ve also set the date for November 6 which is a Saturday,&quot; Elena answered as I sat in the chair next to her.<br /> &quot;Now we&#039;ll discuss who&#039;s in the wedding and the smaller details like decorations,&quot; Rebecca directed. &quot;So who all is in the wedding?&quot;<br /> &quot;Well we have both of our parents. Sabrina is my maid of honor. Tyler&#039;s best friend, Cory, is his best man. Our flower girls are Keegan and Brynlee, Sabrina&#039;s daughters. The ring bearer is Tyler&#039;s cousin, Nathan.&quot;<br /> &quot;Okay, what about bridesmaids and groomsmen?&quot;<br /> &quot;For bridesmaids, I have Delaney, Angela, Kelly, Haley, and Jordyn,&quot; she listed. Delaney is Josh&#039;s sister which we are both really close to. Angela and Kelly are two soon-to-be nurses that Elena met at med school. Haley is her 14 year old sister while Jordyn is my sister.<br /> &quot;For the groomsmen, there is Landon, Calum, Griffin, Scott, and...&quot; her voice faded as she looked over at me with a worried look as I just gave her a confused look back. Landon is Delaney&#039;s husband and Tyler&#039;s boss/ friend. Calum is a buddy from college. Griffin is Tyler&#039;s 17 year old brother, and Scott is his 12 year old brother.<br /> Who else is there... wait.<br /> I immediately changed my confused expression to one of horror.<br /> &quot;Who is the last groomsmen?&quot; Rebecca asked clearly not seeing the look on my face.<br /> &quot;Josh,&quot; Elena said the one name that made my world come crashing down.<br /> This is going to be a wonderful wedding.<br /> Josh&#039;s POV<br /> I was sitting on my tan couch looking at the muted TV in front of me as I waited for Tyler to answer his phone. Luckily, he answered on the third ring.<br /> &quot;Hey man, shouldn&#039;t you being doing something baseball related?&quot; He asked.<br /> &quot;Hey,&quot; I greeted. &quot;Today is my day off.&quot;<br /> &quot;Ah, so why are you calling me at 8 in the morning on your day off? You should be sleeping in.&quot;<br /> &quot;I guess I&#039;m just use to waking up early,&quot; I lied knowing that I didn&#039;t even sleep last night. I mean how could I? This penthouse is quite lonely when you&#039;re actually in it. I&#039;m barely ever here due to playing. When I am here I tend to think, and thinking leads to no sleep.<br /> Most of the time, I am out like a light when I hit my bed since training wore me out, but I wasn&#039;t necessarily tired.<br /> &quot;We both know that&#039;s a lie. You didn&#039;t sleep last night did you?&quot;<br /> He knows me too well.<br /> &quot;Maybe.&quot;<br /> &quot;Is it about Sabrina?&quot; He asked already knowing the answer to that question. It&#039;s always about her. She&#039;s in my mind all the time. I like to use playing and partying as a way to forget about her, but it never works. I even try to get with other girls, but back out when it comes to taking them home. They&#039;re just not her.<br /> &quot;Can we not talk about it?&quot; I asked ready to change the subject. &quot;What are you doing right now?&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s 8 o&#039;clock on a Monday morning. What do you think I&#039;m doing?&quot;<br /> &quot;Sorry. Did I interrupt anything at work?&quot; I cringe knowing I didn&#039;t even think about him possibly being busy.<br /> &quot;Nah, I just got here,&quot; he said knowing I would feel guilty for interrupting something.<br /> &quot;You&#039;re a jerk.&quot;<br /> &quot;I know. Now why are you calling me?&quot;<br /> &quot;Can&#039;t I just say hi to my friend?&quot;<br /> &quot;Not when we literally talked last night about the wedding,&quot; he reminded. Last night, after the meeting with the wedding planner, he gave me the details of the date so I could work it out with my schedule. That also reminds me that I need to talk to Coach.<br /> &quot;Fine,&quot; I gave in. &quot;I just want to know how she is.&quot;<br /> &quot;Sabrina is fine. Today is actually the first day of school.&quot;<br /> &quot;Was she nervous?&quot;<br /> &quot;Why don&#039;t you ask her yourself?&quot; These past few years, I&#039;ve constantly asked Cory and Tyler how Sab was doing. They would get annoyed every once in a while, and they were pretty mad at me when I first left. I completely understand though. What I did was a bad move, but there&#039;s no way to take it back.<br /> &quot;Because if I call her and hear her voice, I know I&#039;m going to automatically get a plane ticket to San Diego.&quot;<br /> &quot;You&#039;re going to have to see her at the wedding though.&quot;<br /> &quot;I know.&quot;<br /> &quot;Cory, if you don&#039;t hurry up, I&#039;m leaving your hip here,&quot; I heard her growl out.<br /> Sabrina.<br /> The sound of her voice just hit me. It hasn&#039;t changed one bit, and man do I miss it.<br /> &quot;Well I got to go. See you soon,&quot; he ended the call leaving me to think about her.<br /> I have exactly 2 weeks until I see her again, and I&#039;m not sure if I&#039;m completely ready.<br /> <br /> Sabrina&#039;s POV<br /> Now it&#039;s time for lunch, and I&#039;m craving some Panera. Cory and I both have a lunch break now since we don&#039;t have classes during lunch period. I&#039;m currently making my way toward the gym to meet with him so we can drive over to Panera Bread.<br /> &quot;Cory, if you don&#039;t hurry up, I&#039;m leaving your hip here,&quot; I practically yelled out after barging into his office.<br /> &quot;Well I got to go. See you soon,&quot; Cory said into his phone making me realize that he was taking to someone.<br /> &quot;Was that an important phone call?&quot;<br /> &quot;No, it was just Josh,&quot; he spoke.<br /> &quot;What&#039;d he want?&quot; I said with a disgusted tone as we walked toward his car.<br /> &quot;Just talking about the wedding.&quot;<br /> When we finally got to Panera, I jumped out of the car wanting nothing more than a good sandwich. With Cory following behind, I entered and stood in line ready to order.<br /> &quot;Did he say when he was coming back? I need to prepare myself.&quot; I said worried of what would happen when he sees the girls or when I finally see him in person for the first time in four years.<br /> What if I blurt out that he&#039;s a father? What if he figures it out on his own?<br /> &quot;He&#039;s coming September 10,&quot; Cory replied with a concerned face as I gave him one of horror.<br /> &quot;That&#039;s not enough time.&quot;<br /> &quot;Enough time for what?&quot;<br /> &quot;For me to change my name and leave the country.&quot;<br /> &quot;Sabrina,&quot; he gave me a stern look. &quot;I think it&#039;s time to tell him about Keegan and Brynlee. He deserves to know.&quot;<br /> &quot;I know, and I&#039;ll try,&quot; I said. &quot;If I don&#039;t tell him by the time he leaves then you have my permission to tell him yourself.&quot;<br /> <br /> Josh&#039;s POV<br /> I walked out of the gym with my shirt hanging over my shoulder, my water bottle in one hand, and my phone in the other. Before I made it to my car, a blonde girl stood in front of my door.<br /> &quot;Hello, hot stuff,&quot; she greeted with a smirk and a wink.<br /> &quot;Hi?&quot; I questioned wondering who this woman is.<br /> &quot;I&#039;m Tiffany, and I was just about to go to the gym when I saw you,&quot; she explained.<br /> &quot;You were about to go to the gym in jeans?&quot; I asked taking in her outfit. Does she think I&#039;m stupid?<br /> &quot;Yeah-,&quot; she was cut off by the sound of my phone ringing. I looked down to see it was Cory calling.<br /> &quot;I have to take this,&quot; I stated as she moved away from the door allowing me to get in my car. I immediately answered the phone while also starting the car.<br /> &quot;Hey man, what&#039;s up?&quot; I greeted as I pulled out of the parking lot leaving the girl standing there.<br /> &quot;Nothing much. I actually need your help coming up with ideas for Tyler&#039;s bachelor party.&quot;<br /> &quot;Well Tyler is a kid at heart, so I would definitely do something fun like a trampoline park or an amusement park,&quot; I responded as I heard loud squeals in the background. It&#039;s sounds like an actual child.<br /> &quot;Hold on,&quot; he told me. &quot;Keegan get down from the counter you&#039;re going to fall.&quot;<br /> Who&#039;s Keegan?<br /> &quot;Okay, I&#039;m back,&quot; he stated after a long pause filled with giggles. &quot;A trampoline park sounds great.&quot;<br /> &quot;Yeah,&quot; I agreed still confused. &quot;Who&#039;s Keegan?&quot;<br /> &quot;Oh-,&quot; he was cut off by the sound of cries. &quot;Brynlee, what did your mother say about running down the stairs? Hey man, I have to go. Talk to you later.&quot;<br /> Before I could respond back, he hung up.<br /> Who is Keegan? Who is Brynlee? Whose kids are they? Did Cory have kids without telling me?

Yes 2024-05-05 19:24 active 742 0 379462561751894 Read next chapter #Chapter1 Revenge<br /> <br /> &quot;Miss Edwards, I need your signature on this consent form for artificial insemination surgery,&quot; said the lawyer as he presented the document to Ariana Edwards. <br /> <br /> Ariana gripped the pen, her knuckles turning white as she stared at the consent form. <br /> <br /> The surgery was scheduled for tomorrow, and today was her wedding. <br /> <br /> The donor of the sperm was none other than Theodore Anderson, the eldest son of the wealthy Anderson family, and also her groom. <br /> <br /> But fate had dealt a cruel hand. Theodore had been in a horrific car accident three months prior and was now comatose, unlikely to ever recover. His life hung by a thread, and it was uncertain how long he would last. <br /> <br /> The Anderson family, known for their fixation on succession and legacy, was desperate to ensure Theodore&#039;s bloodline would continue. So his father, Darian Anderson, took it upon himself to get his son a wife. The sperm that Theodore froze years ago was going to be inseminated into the bride&#039;s womb before he died. <br /> <br /> As Ariana looked down at the consent form in front of her, her complexion was ashen, and her eyes betrayed a subtle sense of panic. <br /> <br /> &quot;Please, can you give me some space to collect my thoughts? I need to read through it carefully,&quot; she said to the lawyer, her voice trembling with emotion. <br /> <br /> After a few seconds of silence, the lawyer nodded and left the room. <br /> <br /> The lawyer&#039;s departure left the room in an eerie silence. Ariana immediately placed the consent form on the table. She had to call Jasper Anderson, her secret boyfriend, for help. <br /> <br /> As fate would have it, Jasper, Theodore&#039;s half-brother, was the mastermind behind this wedding. <br /> <br /> Ariana&#039;s life had been turned upside down by the recent passing of her father, and the ruthlessness of her stepmother, Glenda Edwards. Ariana was left with nothing, not even her deceased mother&#039;s belongings which were also taken away. <br /> <br /> Just when Ariana felt cornered, Jasper came to her with a proposition: she would pretend to marry Theodore, and they would find a way to sabotage the surgery. After Theodore&#039;s death, Jasper would become the sole heir of the Anderson family, and in return, he promised to marry Ariana and help her reclaim her mother&#039;s belongings. <br /> <br /> Ariana, under Jasper&#039;s spell, initially agreed to the plan. However, as the wedding drew closer, she realized that she couldn&#039;t go through with it. <br /> <br /> Desperately seeking Jasper&#039;s comfort and counsel, Ariana tried calling him, but to no avail. <br /> <br /> In a state of anxiety, she sneaked out to look for him. She took off her high heels, held them in her hands, and walked down the corridor, her heart racing with fear and anticipation. <br /> <br /> Ariana&#039;s footsteps came to a sudden halt as she approached the last lounge at the end of the corridor. <br /> <br /> A faint noise could be heard coming from the slightly open door. It was the sound of a familiar giggle. <br /> <br /> Through the crack, she heard a familiar voice. &quot;Stay with me for a little longer, Jasper. Ariana doesn&#039;t have time to look for you now.&quot;<br /> <br /> Her heart sank, and she inched closer to the door, peering inside through the small opening. She saw Brielle Edwards, her half-sister, and Jasper on the sofa. <br /> <br /> Jasper spoke impatiently as he pushed Brielle away to get up. &quot;I need to keep an eye on her. I&#039;m afraid she will have cold feet about the wedding.&quot;<br /> <br /> But Brielle, carelessly dismissing the concern, got close to him and said, &quot;Oh, stop worrying so much. She always listens to you. Besides, we have her mother&#039;s belongings with us. She wouldn&#039;t dare to run away.&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper seemed relieved. &quot;You&#039;re right. Thank you, baby. I will get rid of her when I finish the plan. I only want you...&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana watched in horror as they talked about their scheme against her. <br /> <br /> The reality of the situation hit her hard, and she was left reeling, struggling to maintain her balance as she stumbled backward. <br /> <br /> The betrayal was too much for Ariana to bear. Her heart shattered into a million pieces as tears streamed down her cheeks. <br /> <br /> Fury surged through her veins, and she balled her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her palms. She listened to them with a mix of disgust and rage. <br /> <br /> But Ariana was not defeated. She had to take action. She would not let Jasper and Brielle get away with their treachery. <br /> <br /> With newfound determination, she wiped away her tears, slipped on her high heels, and strode back to the room. Without a moment&#039;s hesitation, she signed the consent form, determined to become the true daughter-in-law of the Anderson family. <br /> <br /> And she would make sure that Jasper and Brielle would pay for their betrayal, no matter what it took. <br /> <br /> * At night, the Anderson family&#039;s residence was illuminated by bright lights, casting a glow over the extravagant surroundings. <br /> <br /> Ariana was escorted to Theodore&#039;s room by the housekeeper, just after the wedding. <br /> <br /> This was the first time she was meeting her so-called husband. <br /> <br /> According to Jasper, Theodore was a man with a terrible temper, a bad character, and a cruel personality. He was even cold to his own family. Jasper used every insulting word to describe Theodore, even &quot;ugly.&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana had believed Jasper&#039;s words and was mentally prepared to face a husband who was anything but handsome. However, when she saw Theodore for the first time, even though he was ill, she couldn&#039;t help but notice his inherent nobility and incredibly handsome appearance. <br /> <br /> Ariana stood motionless beside the bed, admiring Theodore&#039;s stunning features, and began to doubt everything Jasper had told her. <br /> <br /> At that moment, Jasper pushed the door open and swaggered into the room, speaking loudly and with no regard for Theodore&#039;s condition. <br /> <br /> &quot;I&#039;m sorry, Aria. I was too preoccupied today, and I regret not answering your call,&quot; Jasper uttered, feigning remorse. <br /> <br /> Ariana had to play along with Jasper&#039;s scheme for the time being, so she replied, &quot;It&#039;s alright. Don&#039;t worry about it.&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper&#039;s smug grin widened. &quot;I knew you would forgive me; you love me too much,&quot; he said confidently. <br /> <br /> Ariana clenched her fists, containing her fury. &quot;It&#039;s late now. We can talk about whatever you wanted to discuss tomorrow.&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper locked the door, plunging the room into darkness, and slowly approached her. <br /> <br /> Ariana retreated nervously, questioning him, &quot;Jasper, what do you want from me?&quot;<br /> <br /> With a wicked smirk, Jasper pounced on her, saying, &quot;We shouldn&#039;t waste time. If you carry my child, our child will become an Anderson heir.&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper didn&#039;t take Theodore seriously. How dare he want to do that right in front of his brother! <br /> <br /> Ariana fought back, shouting, &quot;Let me go!&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper abruptly halted, and Ariana gazed up at him, dazed. She saw his expression shift to one of pure terror, as if he had seen a ghost behind her. <br /> <br /> In a trembling voice, Jasper muttered, &quot;Theodore...&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> #Chapter2 Artificial Insemination Operation<br /> <br /> Jasper immediately took to his heels.<br /> <br /> Ariana was confused. What was wrong with him? Did Theodore wake up?<br /> <br /> She quickly turned around, but she didn&#039;t notice anything odd. Theodore was still lying on the bed, and his breath was as steady and quiet as before.<br /> <br /> The only difference was that one of his hands was out of the quilt.<br /> <br /> Ariana tilted her head and studied the hand for a while. It looked limp, so she felt that it probably fell out when she bumped into the bedframe while trying to dodge Jasper.<br /> <br /> &quot;Theodore?&quot; Ariana called tentatively.<br /> <br /> There was no response.<br /> <br /> She leaned forward and called out more firmly, &quot;Hey, Theodore!&quot;<br /> <br /> Still, she got no response.<br /> <br /> Ariana swallowed hard and slowly walked to the bedside. She carefully took hold of his hand and put it back under the quilt. Theodore still didn&#039;t move a muscle during the process. This eased her mind greatly. It turned out he was still in a deep coma.<br /> <br /> Perhaps Jasper had hallucinated.<br /> <br /> Ariana breathed a sigh of relief.<br /> <br /> The room returned to its usual quietness again. Ariana&#039;s heart was still beating fast. For some unknown reason, she feared that Theodore would suddenly open his eyes. She sat on the edge of the bed and stared at him closely. A while later, she dozed off due to tiredness.<br /> <br /> The next day, Ariana woke up to find herself lying on the edge of the bed. She quickly turned her head to look at Theodore. To her relief, he didn&#039;t seem to have moved an inch the whole night. Ariana felt the weight of uncertainty drop off her shoulders now.<br /> <br /> She finally ruled out the possibility that Jasper had really seen Theodore move last night.<br /> <br /> Ariana went to the bathroom to wash up. While she was brushing her teeth, her eyes fell on a red mark on her neck. It wasn&#039;t there before. It looked like someone had pinched her there recently.<br /> <br /> When Ariana remembered the struggle with Jasper last night, she reasoned that the red mark was his doing.<br /> <br /> Disgust surged inside her at the thought of that betrayer.<br /> <br /> Ariana set down her toothbrush and went back into the bedroom. She put on a turtleneck top to cover the mark.<br /> <br /> When she was all dressed up, she went downstairs.<br /> <br /> She had just gotten to the bottom stair when Jasper appeared out of nowhere and pulled her into a cubicle nearby.<br /> <br /> &quot;Did Theodore wake up last night?&quot; he whispered into her ear, fearing that someone would hear them.<br /> <br /> Ariana felt sick to her stomach at the sight of Jasper. She took two steps back and replied expressionlessly, &quot;No, he didn&#039;t.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;That&#039;s good to know. My eyes tricked me last night. For a second, I thought Theodore opened his eyes and stared daggers at me. Thank goodness it was just an illusion.&quot; Jasper took a deep breath, feeling relieved. He flashed his usual sunny smile.<br /> <br /> This smile used to send excitement through Ariana&#039;s body in the past. But now, she hated it. She lowered her eyes so he wouldn&#039;t see the resentment in her eyes.<br /> <br /> Oblivious to the real reason, Jasper felt that she was unhappy because of what happened last night. He apologized softly. &quot;I&#039;m sorry about what happened, Aria. I didn&#039;t mean to be rough with you.&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana forced a smile. &quot;Okay, it&#039;s fine.&quot;<br /> <br /> She then made up an excuse so she could leave the cubicle immediately.<br /> <br /> When she got to the dining room, she saw that Darian was already seated at the table. He was a serious man who rarely smiled. After Ariana greeted him, he only nodded slightly. He exuded a cold and uncaring aura.<br /> <br /> On the other hand, Sharon, Theodore&#039;s stepmother, was enthusiastic. She was Jasper&#039;s biological mother, so she probably knew about his plan. It was the only logical explanation for her excessive warmth and friendliness.<br /> <br /> Ariana felt uncomfortable throughout breakfast.<br /> <br /> Once they were done eating, Darian took her to the private hospital owned by the Anderson family.<br /> <br /> Jasper came along. When Ariana was being ushered into the operating room, he gave her a knowing look.<br /> <br /> Ariana took the hint.<br /> <br /> She smiled to assure him that she hadn&#039;t forgotten the plan. But the moment she turned around, her smile vanished. She walked into the operating room with a cold face.<br /> <br /> Fear slowly crept into her heart at this time. But when she remembered how Jasper had betrayed her, she gritted her teeth and balled her fists. She was hell-bent on getting revenge and taking back what rightfully belonged to her.<br /> <br /> The insemination took about an hour. Ariana, whose face was pale, was wheeled out in a wheelchair. The doctor took off his mask and said to Darian, &quot;Everything went well, Mr. Anderson. Now, we have to wait for about a month to confirm if it is successful.&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper&#039;s face darkened as soon as he heard this.<br /> <br /> In contrast, Darian&#039;s usually cold face lit up with a smile. Even a blind man could see that he was pleased with the news. He looked at Ariana with an expression of satisfaction. Afterward, he ordered one of his drivers to drive her and Jasper back home.<br /> <br /> On the way, Jasper&#039;s face was red with anger. Several green veins became visible on his forehead and temples, but he didn&#039;t utter a word.<br /> <br /> Ariana didn&#039;t bother speaking to him. She looked out of the window, lost in thought.<br /> <br /> Once they got out of the car, Jasper flipped out. He grabbed her arm and pulled her to the garden to give her a piece of his mind.<br /> <br /> &quot;Ariana! I thought we agreed that you would ruin the operation. Why didn&#039;t you do so?&quot; Jasper growled.<br /> <br /> As far as Ariana was concerned, she didn&#039;t owe this backstabber an explanation. He disgusted her. She shook off his hand and said coldly, &quot;Mind the way you speak to me, Jasper. I&#039;m your sister-in-law now!&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper held his head and let out an angry laugh. He kicked the tree nearby. &quot;What did you just say? Are you kidding me?&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana&#039;s heart skipped a beat when she saw his bloodshot eyes. She spun on her heels, but Jasper pulled her back.<br /> <br /> &quot;Did I tell you to leave? Don&#039;t even dare walk out on me, Ariana! I&#039;m not done speaking to you!&quot; Sparks of fury burned in Jasper&#039;s eyes.<br /> <br /> Ariana was both scared and annoyed. She tried to break free while glaring at him. &quot;Let go of me!&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper grabbed her with both hands and leaned over. &quot;This wasn&#039;t what we agreed on. Are you trying to pull a fast one on me now that you are married to Theodore? Just so you know, you can&#039;t get rid of me. There&#039;s no telling that you would get pregnant. Even if you do, Theodore won&#039;t be able to protect you and your baby.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Bah! How are you so sure about that? Theodore is still alive, isn&#039;t he?&quot; Ariana sneered. &quot;No matter what happens, I&#039;m still your sister-in-law. You better come to terms with it now!&quot;<br /> <br /> This comment drove Jasper nuts. He raised his hand to slap her.<br /> <br /> But before that could happen, a servant rushed out of the house and shouted, &quot;Ma&#039;am! Mr. Theodore Anderson just woke up. He wants to see you!&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> #Chapter3 He Woke Up<br /> <br /> Ariana and Jasper were both taken aback by the sudden revelation that Theodore had awakened from his coma. <br /> <br /> Jasper&#039;s face contorted with anger as he tightened his grip on Ariana&#039;s arm, accusing her of deception. &quot;You lied to me? What I saw last night wasn&#039;t an illusion. You knew Theodore woke up, didn&#039;t you? That&#039;s why you&#039;ve been acting so strange today!&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana refused to explain, her expression turning into a sneer as she shrugged off Jasper&#039;s grasp, leaving him behind as she followed the servant&#039;s lead. <br /> <br /> Jasper seethed with anger, his fists clenching as he watched her retreating form. He kicked a nearby flowerpot in frustration, the sound of shattering pottery echoing through the garden. <br /> <br /> The sprawling Andersons&#039; estate was a maze of hallways and rooms, adorned with vibrant flowers in every shade. Ariana made her way down the endless corridor, lost in her thoughts and worries. She finally reached the small villa where Theodore was recuperating, nestled behind the lush garden. <br /> <br /> The peaceful surroundings were bathed in warm sunlight, a sharp contrast to the chaos in Ariana&#039;s mind. <br /> <br /> She couldn&#039;t shake the worries that clouded her thoughts, unsure if Theodore had awoken during the night or overheard her conversation with Jasper. <br /> <br /> Ariana&#039;s heart raced as she contemplated what would happen if Theodore had heard the conversation between her and Jasper. <br /> <br /> Her face was drained of color, her eyes filled with fear. <br /> <br /> Her husband was known to be cruel and merciless, with power and connections that reached far and wide, even among the police and gangs. Those who dared to cross him often met with a grisly fate. <br /> <br /> &quot;Ma&#039;am, here we are.&quot; Ariana was jolted back to reality by the servant&#039;s voice. <br /> <br /> She breathed deeply, steeled herself, and took a slow step inside. Coincidentally, Darian dashed toward her, both of them exchanging brief greetings. <br /> <br /> And in silence, they walked through the villa&#039;s entrance. <br /> <br /> A group of doctors encircled Theodore on the huge bed as they approached. <br /> <br /> After the examination, the attending doctor sighed and said, &quot;Although Mr. Theodore Anderson has regained consciousness, the accident has taken a toll on his body, particularly his legs. They are too damaged, and he will never be able to walk normally again. Physiotherapy will take a long time.&quot;<br /> <br /> Darian&#039;s disbelief was palpable. &quot;You mean he&#039;s... he&#039;s disabled?&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana frowned, and to her surprise, she glimpsed relief in Darian&#039;s expression. <br /> <br /> &quot;I&#039;m afraid so,&quot; the doctor admitted with deep regret. <br /> <br /> &quot;I see. You can leave now.&quot; With a flick of his wrist, Darian dismissed the doctors and turned his attention to Theodore, wearing an unusually soft smile. &quot;Rest well, Theodore. You shouldn&#039;t worry about anything else. I&#039;ll find the best doctor to treat your legs.&quot;<br /> <br /> Then, Darian turned to Ariana and said, &quot;You may have to take care of Theodore from now on.&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana almost wanted to roll her eyes at Darian. She couldn&#039;t help but think that he was making her his son&#039;s caregiver. <br /> <br /> Theodore sat propped up against the headboard, his eyes filled with an icy indifference that sent shivers down anyone&#039;s spine. He seemed aloof and detached from everything around him, his face shrouded with an icy chill. <br /> <br /> Finally, he looked up and locked his gaze with Darian&#039;s, asking in a frigid tone, &quot;Who is she?&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana was taken aback by Theodore&#039;s short question, unsure how to respond to him. Her heart raced, and her mind raced faster. <br /> <br /> She didn&#039;t even know how to introduce herself to him. <br /> <br /> The thought of Theodore being able to leave this arranged marriage at any moment caused Ariana to shiver. <br /> <br /> She had to see her plan through; otherwise, it would all be for nothing. <br /> <br /> &quot;She is your wife, Ariana Edwards,&quot; Darian said. <br /> <br /> Theodore&#039;s expression turned colder. &quot;I don&#039;t remember having a wife. Where did you find this liar?&quot; he said, disdain dripping from his words. <br /> <br /> &quot;I arranged her for you,&quot; Darian replied in a tone that was uncharacteristically sharp. &quot;Everyone knows it.&quot;<br /> <br /> But Theodore wasn&#039;t going to let it go so easily. &quot;Then I&#039;ll divorce her!&quot; he spat. &quot;Not just anyone can be my wife. If you want someone to take care of me, you&#039;d better hire a caregiver directly.&quot;<br /> <br /> The words hung in the air, freezing the already tense atmosphere. Darian&#039;s face twitched with anger, but he restrained himself. &quot;Divorce is impossible,&quot; he said through gritted teeth. <br /> <br /> Theodore sneered at Darian. &quot;What right do you have to make decisions for me?&quot;<br /> <br /> The tension was palpable in the room as Ariana stood. She felt like a mere onlooker to the father and son&#039;s tumultuous relationship. <br /> <br /> Darian&#039;s voice quivered with fury as he growled, &quot;It was already decided. Ariana just underwent the artificial insemination surgery, and there&#039;s a chance she&#039;s carrying your child.&quot;<br /> <br /> Theodore&#039;s eyes snapped to Ariana, scanning her form as if she was a mere object. <br /> <br /> It felt like an eternity before he chuckled and asked Ariana, &quot;So, should I arrange a doctor for you to get rid of the baby?&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> #Chapter4 He Knew It<br /> <br /> Ariana was in shock after hearing what Theodore had said. She stood there, paralyzed and speechless. <br /> <br /> Darian was seething with anger and lashed out, &quot;What are you saying? This child is of the Anderson family&#039;s lineage!&quot;<br /> <br /> To this, Theodore replied with icy detachment, &quot;The Anderson family has many descendants. This one can be abandoned. And if you don&#039;t want to abandon it, I have ways to make it disappear.&quot;<br /> <br /> Every word was like a crushing blow to Ariana&#039;s heart, leaving her unsettled and anxious. <br /> <br /> Darian was beyond furious and he pointed a trembling finger at Theodore. &quot;How dare you speak to me in that manner? You are an ingrate! Do you not consider me your father?&quot;<br /> <br /> Theodore let out a cold sneer. &quot;Father? You are not worthy of being called that, Darian.&quot;<br /> <br /> The atmosphere was tense, as Darian&#039;s hand came down hard on the lamp, sending it crashing to the floor. <br /> <br /> Ariana took a step back, wary of the explosive emotions of the father and son. <br /> <br /> Despite Darian&#039;s rage, Theodore remained unperturbed. He appeared to be accustomed to the violent outbursts of his father, casually picking up a glass of water and taking a leisurely sip, unfazed by the intense situation. <br /> <br /> Darian took a deep breath, his body radiating anger as he realized there was no use in continuing the conversation. &quot;It&#039;s too soon to be discussing a divorce,&quot; he said, his words dripping with authority. &quot;Ariana just underwent the artificial insemination surgery. We would only find out if it was successful in a month. If you are still adamant about getting a divorce, then we can discuss it.&quot;<br /> <br /> He emphasized the last sentence and leveled a sharp look at Theodore, daring him to object. <br /> <br /> Theodore, however, sneered and remained silent. Even weakened by his illness, he exuded an aura of power that belied his physical state. <br /> <br /> &quot;Think about it,&quot; Darian spat out, the frustration clear in his voice, before turning and storming off in a huff. <br /> <br /> Ariana stood there, unsure of what to do to break the tension between her and Theodore. <br /> <br /> They were married now, and Ariana might have been carrying his child. It would be easier for everyone if they could get along civilly in their future life together. <br /> <br /> But then, she thought about how much he must be suffering from his disability and his short temper. <br /> <br /> After careful consideration, Ariana decided to take the first step to mend their relationship. If she could show him kindness and care, perhaps she could use his affection for her to advance her own plans for revenge. <br /> <br /> Tentatively, Ariana stepped closer to Theodore&#039;s bedside and looked upon his handsome face with nervousness. <br /> <br /> She hesitated for a moment, steeling herself to start a conversation. His gaze was cold and unyielding, but she had to try. &quot;Mr. Anderson, my name is Ariana, and I&#039;m your wife...&quot;<br /> <br /> Her voice trailed off as his icy stare bore into her. She knew she was telling the truth, but he didn&#039;t seem to want to accept it. <br /> <br /> Suddenly, Theodore&#039;s hand shot out and seized hers in a tight grip. Ariana gasped in surprise and stumbled, falling into his arms. <br /> <br /> His body was warm and his scent was intoxicating, overwhelming her senses. <br /> <br /> As she struggled to right herself, Theodore put his other hand on her nape and pressed her head closer. <br /> <br /> Fear welled up inside her as Ariana realized just how dangerous this man could be. <br /> <br /> &quot;You don&#039;t have what it takes to be my wife. This position demands someone who isn&#039;t a coward, someone who isn&#039;t afraid of me. Do you have a guilty conscience? Is that why you&#039;re so nervous around me?&quot; Theodore&#039;s breath was hot on Ariana&#039;s neck as he leaned in to whisper these cutting words, causing her to shiver in fear. <br /> <br /> He gazed down at Ariana as his slender fingers slid beneath the collar of her turtleneck blouse and then touched her neck with the tenderness of a doting lover. <br /> <br /> His gesture sent shivers down her spine and she felt her heart race. <br /> <br /> Ariana&#039;s voice quavered with trepidation as she stuttered, &quot;I... I don&#039;t.&quot;<br /> <br /> Theodore sneered with a malevolent glint in his eyes, relishing the fear he had induced in her. <br /> <br /> Ariana could feel his heartbeat, each thump ringing in her ears like a death knell. <br /> <br /> What did he mean by this? <br /> <br /> Theodore&#039;s voice was low and menacing. &quot;Did you enjoy your time with Jasper in front of me?&quot;<br /> <br /> Panic settled in as Ariana realized that Theodore was awake the entire time on their wedding night. He had seen Jasper sneaking into their room. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> #Chapter5 Terrifying Husband<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Theodore&#039;s eyes bored into her, and for a moment, he seemed to take pleasure in her panic. But when his gaze fell on her belly, his expression twisted into one of pure malice. A cold, cruel glint flickered in his eyes, sending shivers down Ariana&#039;s spine. <br /> <br /> &quot;You&#039;d better hope that you&#039;re not pregnant,&quot; he hissed, his voice laced with venom. &quot;Because if you are, I&#039;ll make sure it never sees the light of day.&quot;<br /> <br /> Her heart sank as she heard the threat in his words. Theodore was every bit as ruthless as Jasper had warned her. Maybe even worse. <br /> <br /> In a desperate bid to save her own life, Ariana lowered her head, her voice trembling with fear as she tried to explain herself. &quot;Theodore, please listen to me. I broke up with Jasper, and I never...&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Get out!&quot; Theodore&#039;s patience ran out, and his face twisted into an icy mask. &quot;I never want to see your face again.&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana realized that convincing Theodore was impossible, no matter how much she tried. She hastened to make her escape, but on her way out, she collided with a sophisticated gentleman in a sleek suit. <br /> <br /> Trembling, she apologized quickly and bolted out of Theodore&#039;s room, not daring to look back. <br /> <br /> Once Horace Silence strode into the room, he immediately observed Theodore&#039;s intense gaze fixed on the spot where Ariana had vanished. It was as if he was lost in deep contemplation, mulling over something of great importance. <br /> <br /> After a moment&#039;s reflection, Horace placed a test report on the nearby bedside table. <br /> <br /> &quot;According to the doctor, your body is healthy, and after some remedial exercises of your legs, you can fully recover. He will continue to cooperate with your orders and pretend that your legs are disabled. Everyone in the Anderson family believes it,&quot; Horace reported to his boss. <br /> <br /> Theodore smiled, the satisfaction clear in his eyes. &quot;Let&#039;s keep them in the dark for a little longer. I want them to think they are invincible before I destroy them.&quot;<br /> <br /> Horace then took out another document. <br /> <br /> &quot;Boss, this contains information about your new wife, Ariana Edwards,&quot; he said, fulfilling his duty as a senior assistant. <br /> <br /> Horace moved to place the document on the bedside table, but Theodore snatched it from him. <br /> <br /> Horace was a bit surprised. Then he spoke with a touch of hesitancy. &quot;You may be surprised to hear this, boss, but Ms. Edwards lived a miserable life. Her life has been marked by a series of unfortunate events that have left her with little recourse. She lost her mother at the tender age of 13, and shortly thereafter, her father remarried a woman who brought with her a girl. The girl is Ms. Edwards&#039; younger half-sister. The existence of Ms. Edwards&#039; stepmother and half-sister was clear proof that her father had been cheating on her mother for ages. <br /> <br /> Fueled by anger, Ms. Edwards left for studies abroad as soon as she became an adult, hoping to escape the pain of her past. However, she didn&#039;t get to see her father again before his death. Yet even with her father&#039;s passing, she was unable to find closure, as her stepmother seized control of the family&#039;s assets and cast her out onto the streets. Given her circumstances, it&#039;s possible she felt she had no choice but to marry you...&quot;<br /> <br /> Theodore&#039;s eyes narrowed as he perused the report, a slight frown marring his features. &quot;Horace, I can read. I don&#039;t need you to interpret,&quot; he said in a clipped tone. <br /> <br /> Horace nodded subserviently, but it wasn&#039;t long before he could no longer hold his tongue. <br /> <br /> &quot;I just feel that Ms. Edwards&#039; past is a little similar to yours. She also has a stepmother, and was—&quot;<br /> <br /> Theodore&#039;s face contorted into a cruel smile as he cut him off. &quot;Do I have to remind you of your surname?&quot; he hissed. <br /> <br /> Horace gulped audibly and took a step back. His boss&#039;s threat was clear. He knew better than to push the issue any further. <br /> <br /> Theodore let out a disdainful snort as he recalled the fear that had been etched on Ariana&#039;s face. The memory only served to deepen his frown. <br /> <br /> *<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Ariana scurried out of Theodore&#039;s room and headed to find the housekeeper, Judy Kelly. <br /> <br /> The warm-hearted, slightly plump middle-aged woman took Ariana&#039;s hands in hers as she persuaded, &quot;Mr. Anderson has just woken up and he may need some time to adjust. Love requires patience and understanding. Please, my dear, be obedient and tolerant toward him. Things might turn around for the better soon.&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana bit her tongue, holding back the retort that she wouldn&#039;t please that tyrant even if she was out of her mind. <br /> <br /> After Judy arranged a guest room for her, Ariana collapsed onto the bed, exhausted from the day&#039;s events. She fell asleep in no time. <br /> <br /> The next morning, Ariana jolted awake to the blaring sound of her phone alarm. As she blinked away the sleep from her eyes, she gazed up at the unfamiliar ceiling, her heart heavy with confusion and worry. Her mind swirled with thoughts of her future and how uncertain it had become. <br /> <br /> Ariana had foolishly believed that her husband&#039;s death was imminent and that she could secure her place as an Anderson family daughter-in-law. <br /> <br /> But the reality was far from what she had hoped. Not only had Theodore survived, but he also seemed intent on banishing her from the family altogether. <br /> <br /> Ariana groggily reached over and fumbled with her phone until she found the alarm. As she silenced the ringing, a piece of news caught her bleary eyes. &quot;Hundreds of high-price items are on sale at the auction in Ivebridge...&quot;<br /> <br /> The headline grabbed her attention, and she leaned closer to read more. Her eyes widened in shock as she saw the first item on the auction block was a necklace that belonged to her late mother. <br /> &amp;2&amp; LEARN_MORE https://fbweb.moboreader.net/38520322-fb_contact-h 102729319508493 Auroch novel https://facebook.com/100092728788928 15,664 1 356,611,710,742,836 2024-05-05 02:00 person_profile eligible 0 0 NONE 0 1 1 0 Learn more 0 Auroch novel 120208916780330245 fbweb.moboreader.net NONE video https://fbweb.moboreader.net/38520322-fb_contact-hys-0320-core1.html?adid={{ad.id}}&char=066827&accid=263741546706881 2024-04-30 04:37 https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/440072636_789407436476814_84500142229091888_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=104&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=mRbe48xhi2UQ7kNvgF8AxSX&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.xx&oh=00_AfBHlZMW0kg3cth8M879Vp6WzVnEVUPcddl577oaQINOGQ&oe=663DF163 person_profile 0 Auroch novel https://scontent-iad3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/439864240_808451120631972_7270824169324100173_n.jpg?_nc_cat=105&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=oFewxMx4YlIQ7kNvgEVsVEP&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-2.xx&oh=00_AfCl3wMWkVLW5W0AGSWXp_lkFzl86aNGh2Fzvyytv6-C0Q&oe=663DF819 0 3 Auroch novel 0 0 2024-05-05 02:00 View Edit

Theodore had been in a horrific car accident three months prior and was now comatose, unlikely to ever recover. His life hung by a thread, and it was uncertain how long he would last. <br /> <br /> The Anderson family, known for their fixation on succession and legacy, was desperate to ensure Theodore&#039;s bloodline would continue. So his father, Darian Anderson, took it upon himself to get his son a wife. The sperm that Theodore froze years ago was going to be inseminated into the bride&#039;s womb before he died. <br /> <br /> As Ariana looked down at the consent form in front of her, her complexion was ashen, and her eyes betrayed a subtle sense of panic. <br /> <br /> &quot;Please, can you give me some space to collect my thoughts? I need to read through it carefully,&quot; she said to the lawyer, her voice trembling with emotion. <br /> <br /> After a few seconds of silence, the lawyer nodded and left the room. <br /> <br /> The lawyer&#039;s departure left the room in an eerie silence. Ariana immediately placed the consent form on the table. She had to call Jasper Anderson, her secret boyfriend, for help. <br /> <br /> As fate would have it, Jasper, Theodore&#039;s half-brother, was the mastermind behind this wedding. <br /> <br /> Ariana&#039;s life had been turned upside down by the recent passing of her father, and the ruthlessness of her stepmother, Glenda Edwards. Ariana was left with nothing, not even her deceased mother&#039;s belongings which were also taken away. <br /> <br /> Just when Ariana felt cornered, Jasper came to her with a proposition: she would pretend to marry Theodore, and they would find a way to sabotage the surgery. After Theodore&#039;s death, Jasper would become the sole heir of the Anderson family, and in return, he promised to marry Ariana and help her reclaim her mother&#039;s belongings. <br /> <br /> Ariana, under Jasper&#039;s spell, initially agreed to the plan. However, as the wedding drew closer, she realized that she couldn&#039;t go through with it. <br /> <br /> Desperately seeking Jasper&#039;s comfort and counsel, Ariana tried calling him, but to no avail. <br /> <br /> In a state of anxiety, she sneaked out to look for him. She took off her high heels, held them in her hands, and walked down the corridor, her heart racing with fear and anticipation. <br /> <br /> Ariana&#039;s footsteps came to a sudden halt as she approached the last lounge at the end of the corridor. <br /> <br /> A faint noise could be heard coming from the slightly open door. It was the sound of a familiar giggle. <br /> <br /> Through the crack, she heard a familiar voice. &quot;Stay with me for a little longer, Jasper. Ariana doesn&#039;t have time to look for you now.&quot;<br /> <br /> Her heart sank, and she inched closer to the door, peering inside through the small opening. She saw Brielle Edwards, her half-sister, and Jasper on the sofa. <br /> <br /> Jasper spoke impatiently as he pushed Brielle away to get up. &quot;I need to keep an eye on her. I&#039;m afraid she will have cold feet about the wedding.&quot;<br /> <br /> But Brielle, carelessly dismissing the concern, got close to him and said, &quot;Oh, stop worrying so much. She always listens to you. Besides, we have her mother&#039;s belongings with us. She wouldn&#039;t dare to run away.&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper seemed relieved. &quot;You&#039;re right. Thank you, baby. I will get rid of her when I finish the plan. I only want you...&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana watched in horror as they talked about their scheme against her. <br /> <br /> The reality of the situation hit her hard, and she was left reeling, struggling to maintain her balance as she stumbled backward. <br /> <br /> The betrayal was too much for Ariana to bear. Her heart shattered into a million pieces as tears streamed down her cheeks. <br /> <br /> Fury surged through her veins, and she balled her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her palms. She listened to them with a mix of disgust and rage. <br /> <br /> But Ariana was not defeated. She had to take action. She would not let Jasper and Brielle get away with their treachery. <br /> <br /> With newfound determination, she wiped away her tears, slipped on her high heels, and strode back to the room. Without a moment&#039;s hesitation, she signed the consent form, determined to become the true daughter-in-law of the Anderson family. <br /> <br /> And she would make sure that Jasper and Brielle would pay for their betrayal, no matter what it took. <br /> <br /> * At night, the Anderson family&#039;s residence was illuminated by bright lights, casting a glow over the extravagant surroundings. <br /> <br /> Ariana was escorted to Theodore&#039;s room by the housekeeper, just after the wedding. <br /> <br /> This was the first time she was meeting her so-called husband. <br /> <br /> According to Jasper, Theodore was a man with a terrible temper, a bad character, and a cruel personality. He was even cold to his own family. Jasper used every insulting word to describe Theodore, even &quot;ugly.&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana had believed Jasper&#039;s words and was mentally prepared to face a husband who was anything but handsome. However, when she saw Theodore for the first time, even though he was ill, she couldn&#039;t help but notice his inherent nobility and incredibly handsome appearance. <br /> <br /> Ariana stood motionless beside the bed, admiring Theodore&#039;s stunning features, and began to doubt everything Jasper had told her. <br /> <br /> At that moment, Jasper pushed the door open and swaggered into the room, speaking loudly and with no regard for Theodore&#039;s condition. <br /> <br /> &quot;I&#039;m sorry, Aria. I was too preoccupied today, and I regret not answering your call,&quot; Jasper uttered, feigning remorse. <br /> <br /> Ariana had to play along with Jasper&#039;s scheme for the time being, so she replied, &quot;It&#039;s alright. Don&#039;t worry about it.&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper&#039;s smug grin widened. &quot;I knew you would forgive me; you love me too much,&quot; he said confidently. <br /> <br /> Ariana clenched her fists, containing her fury. &quot;It&#039;s late now. We can talk about whatever you wanted to discuss tomorrow.&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper locked the door, plunging the room into darkness, and slowly approached her. <br /> <br /> Ariana retreated nervously, questioning him, &quot;Jasper, what do you want from me?&quot;<br /> <br /> With a wicked smirk, Jasper pounced on her, saying, &quot;We shouldn&#039;t waste time. If you carry my child, our child will become an Anderson heir.&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper didn&#039;t take Theodore seriously. How dare he want to do that right in front of his brother! <br /> <br /> Ariana fought back, shouting, &quot;Let me go!&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper abruptly halted, and Ariana gazed up at him, dazed. She saw his expression shift to one of pure terror, as if he had seen a ghost behind her. <br /> <br /> In a trembling voice, Jasper muttered, &quot;Theodore...&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> #Chapter2 Artificial Insemination Operation<br /> <br /> Jasper immediately took to his heels.<br /> <br /> Ariana was confused. What was wrong with him? Did Theodore wake up?<br /> <br /> She quickly turned around, but she didn&#039;t notice anything odd. Theodore was still lying on the bed, and his breath was as steady and quiet as before.<br /> <br /> The only difference was that one of his hands was out of the quilt.<br /> <br /> Ariana tilted her head and studied the hand for a while. It looked limp, so she felt that it probably fell out when she bumped into the bedframe while trying to dodge Jasper.<br /> <br /> &quot;Theodore?&quot; Ariana called tentatively.<br /> <br /> There was no response.<br /> <br /> She leaned forward and called out more firmly, &quot;Hey, Theodore!&quot;<br /> <br /> Still, she got no response.<br /> <br /> Ariana swallowed hard and slowly walked to the bedside. She carefully took hold of his hand and put it back under the quilt. Theodore still didn&#039;t move a muscle during the process. This eased her mind greatly. It turned out he was still in a deep coma.<br /> <br /> Perhaps Jasper had hallucinated.<br /> <br /> Ariana breathed a sigh of relief.<br /> <br /> The room returned to its usual quietness again. Ariana&#039;s heart was still beating fast. For some unknown reason, she feared that Theodore would suddenly open his eyes. She sat on the edge of the bed and stared at him closely. A while later, she dozed off due to tiredness.<br /> <br /> The next day, Ariana woke up to find herself lying on the edge of the bed. She quickly turned her head to look at Theodore. To her relief, he didn&#039;t seem to have moved an inch the whole night. Ariana felt the weight of uncertainty drop off her shoulders now.<br /> <br /> She finally ruled out the possibility that Jasper had really seen Theodore move last night.<br /> <br /> Ariana went to the bathroom to wash up. While she was brushing her teeth, her eyes fell on a red mark on her neck. It wasn&#039;t there before. It looked like someone had pinched her there recently.<br /> <br /> When Ariana remembered the struggle with Jasper last night, she reasoned that the red mark was his doing.<br /> <br /> Disgust surged inside her at the thought of that betrayer.<br /> <br /> Ariana set down her toothbrush and went back into the bedroom. She put on a turtleneck top to cover the mark.<br /> <br /> When she was all dressed up, she went downstairs.<br /> <br /> She had just gotten to the bottom stair when Jasper appeared out of nowhere and pulled her into a cubicle nearby.<br /> <br /> &quot;Did Theodore wake up last night?&quot; he whispered into her ear, fearing that someone would hear them.<br /> <br /> Ariana felt sick to her stomach at the sight of Jasper. She took two steps back and replied expressionlessly, &quot;No, he didn&#039;t.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;That&#039;s good to know. My eyes tricked me last night. For a second, I thought Theodore opened his eyes and stared daggers at me. Thank goodness it was just an illusion.&quot; Jasper took a deep breath, feeling relieved. He flashed his usual sunny smile.<br /> <br /> This smile used to send excitement through Ariana&#039;s body in the past. But now, she hated it. She lowered her eyes so he wouldn&#039;t see the resentment in her eyes.<br /> <br /> Oblivious to the real reason, Jasper felt that she was unhappy because of what happened last night. He apologized softly. &quot;I&#039;m sorry about what happened, Aria. I didn&#039;t mean to be rough with you.&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana forced a smile. &quot;Okay, it&#039;s fine.&quot;<br /> <br /> She then made up an excuse so she could leave the cubicle immediately.<br /> <br /> When she got to the dining room, she saw that Darian was already seated at the table. He was a serious man who rarely smiled. After Ariana greeted him, he only nodded slightly. He exuded a cold and uncaring aura.<br /> <br /> On the other hand, Sharon, Theodore&#039;s stepmother, was enthusiastic. She was Jasper&#039;s biological mother, so she probably knew about his plan. It was the only logical explanation for her excessive warmth and friendliness.<br /> <br /> Ariana felt uncomfortable throughout breakfast.<br /> <br /> Once they were done eating, Darian took her to the private hospital owned by the Anderson family.<br /> <br /> Jasper came along. When Ariana was being ushered into the operating room, he gave her a knowing look.<br /> <br /> Ariana took the hint.<br /> <br /> She smiled to assure him that she hadn&#039;t forgotten the plan. But the moment she turned around, her smile vanished. She walked into the operating room with a cold face.<br /> <br /> Fear slowly crept into her heart at this time. But when she remembered how Jasper had betrayed her, she gritted her teeth and balled her fists. She was hell-bent on getting revenge and taking back what rightfully belonged to her.<br /> <br /> The insemination took about an hour. Ariana, whose face was pale, was wheeled out in a wheelchair. The doctor took off his mask and said to Darian, &quot;Everything went well, Mr. Anderson. Now, we have to wait for about a month to confirm if it is successful.&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper&#039;s face darkened as soon as he heard this.<br /> <br /> In contrast, Darian&#039;s usually cold face lit up with a smile. Even a blind man could see that he was pleased with the news. He looked at Ariana with an expression of satisfaction. Afterward, he ordered one of his drivers to drive her and Jasper back home.<br /> <br /> On the way, Jasper&#039;s face was red with anger. Several green veins became visible on his forehead and temples, but he didn&#039;t utter a word.<br /> <br /> Ariana didn&#039;t bother speaking to him. She looked out of the window, lost in thought.<br /> <br /> Once they got out of the car, Jasper flipped out. He grabbed her arm and pulled her to the garden to give her a piece of his mind.<br /> <br /> &quot;Ariana! I thought we agreed that you would ruin the operation. Why didn&#039;t you do so?&quot; Jasper growled.<br /> <br /> As far as Ariana was concerned, she didn&#039;t owe this backstabber an explanation. He disgusted her. She shook off his hand and said coldly, &quot;Mind the way you speak to me, Jasper. I&#039;m your sister-in-law now!&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper held his head and let out an angry laugh. He kicked the tree nearby. &quot;What did you just say? Are you kidding me?&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana&#039;s heart skipped a beat when she saw his bloodshot eyes. She spun on her heels, but Jasper pulled her back.<br /> <br /> &quot;Did I tell you to leave? Don&#039;t even dare walk out on me, Ariana! I&#039;m not done speaking to you!&quot; Sparks of fury burned in Jasper&#039;s eyes.<br /> <br /> Ariana was both scared and annoyed. She tried to break free while glaring at him. &quot;Let go of me!&quot;<br /> <br /> Jasper grabbed her with both hands and leaned over. &quot;This wasn&#039;t what we agreed on. Are you trying to pull a fast one on me now that you are married to Theodore? Just so you know, you can&#039;t get rid of me. There&#039;s no telling that you would get pregnant. Even if you do, Theodore won&#039;t be able to protect you and your baby.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Bah! How are you so sure about that? Theodore is still alive, isn&#039;t he?&quot; Ariana sneered. &quot;No matter what happens, I&#039;m still your sister-in-law. You better come to terms with it now!&quot;<br /> <br /> This comment drove Jasper nuts. He raised his hand to slap her.<br /> <br /> But before that could happen, a servant rushed out of the house and shouted, &quot;Ma&#039;am! Mr. Theodore Anderson just woke up. He wants to see you!&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> #Chapter3 He Woke Up<br /> <br /> Ariana and Jasper were both taken aback by the sudden revelation that Theodore had awakened from his coma. <br /> <br /> Jasper&#039;s face contorted with anger as he tightened his grip on Ariana&#039;s arm, accusing her of deception. &quot;You lied to me? What I saw last night wasn&#039;t an illusion. You knew Theodore woke up, didn&#039;t you? That&#039;s why you&#039;ve been acting so strange today!&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana refused to explain, her expression turning into a sneer as she shrugged off Jasper&#039;s grasp, leaving him behind as she followed the servant&#039;s lead. <br /> <br /> Jasper seethed with anger, his fists clenching as he watched her retreating form. He kicked a nearby flowerpot in frustration, the sound of shattering pottery echoing through the garden. <br /> <br /> The sprawling Andersons&#039; estate was a maze of hallways and rooms, adorned with vibrant flowers in every shade. Ariana made her way down the endless corridor, lost in her thoughts and worries. She finally reached the small villa where Theodore was recuperating, nestled behind the lush garden. <br /> <br /> The peaceful surroundings were bathed in warm sunlight, a sharp contrast to the chaos in Ariana&#039;s mind. <br /> <br /> She couldn&#039;t shake the worries that clouded her thoughts, unsure if Theodore had awoken during the night or overheard her conversation with Jasper. <br /> <br /> Ariana&#039;s heart raced as she contemplated what would happen if Theodore had heard the conversation between her and Jasper. <br /> <br /> Her face was drained of color, her eyes filled with fear. <br /> <br /> Her husband was known to be cruel and merciless, with power and connections that reached far and wide, even among the police and gangs. Those who dared to cross him often met with a grisly fate. <br /> <br /> &quot;Ma&#039;am, here we are.&quot; Ariana was jolted back to reality by the servant&#039;s voice. <br /> <br /> She breathed deeply, steeled herself, and took a slow step inside. Coincidentally, Darian dashed toward her, both of them exchanging brief greetings. <br /> <br /> And in silence, they walked through the villa&#039;s entrance. <br /> <br /> A group of doctors encircled Theodore on the huge bed as they approached. <br /> <br /> After the examination, the attending doctor sighed and said, &quot;Although Mr. Theodore Anderson has regained consciousness, the accident has taken a toll on his body, particularly his legs. They are too damaged, and he will never be able to walk normally again. Physiotherapy will take a long time.&quot;<br /> <br /> Darian&#039;s disbelief was palpable. &quot;You mean he&#039;s... he&#039;s disabled?&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana frowned, and to her surprise, she glimpsed relief in Darian&#039;s expression. <br /> <br /> &quot;I&#039;m afraid so,&quot; the doctor admitted with deep regret. <br /> <br /> &quot;I see. You can leave now.&quot; With a flick of his wrist, Darian dismissed the doctors and turned his attention to Theodore, wearing an unusually soft smile. &quot;Rest well, Theodore. You shouldn&#039;t worry about anything else. I&#039;ll find the best doctor to treat your legs.&quot;<br /> <br /> Then, Darian turned to Ariana and said, &quot;You may have to take care of Theodore from now on.&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana almost wanted to roll her eyes at Darian. She couldn&#039;t help but think that he was making her his son&#039;s caregiver. <br /> <br /> Theodore sat propped up against the headboard, his eyes filled with an icy indifference that sent shivers down anyone&#039;s spine. He seemed aloof and detached from everything around him, his face shrouded with an icy chill. <br /> <br /> Finally, he looked up and locked his gaze with Darian&#039;s, asking in a frigid tone, &quot;Who is she?&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana was taken aback by Theodore&#039;s short question, unsure how to respond to him. Her heart raced, and her mind raced faster. <br /> <br /> She didn&#039;t even know how to introduce herself to him. <br /> <br /> The thought of Theodore being able to leave this arranged marriage at any moment caused Ariana to shiver. <br /> <br /> She had to see her plan through; otherwise, it would all be for nothing. <br /> <br /> &quot;She is your wife, Ariana Edwards,&quot; Darian said. <br /> <br /> Theodore&#039;s expression turned colder. &quot;I don&#039;t remember having a wife. Where did you find this liar?&quot; he said, disdain dripping from his words. <br /> <br /> &quot;I arranged her for you,&quot; Darian replied in a tone that was uncharacteristically sharp. &quot;Everyone knows it.&quot;<br /> <br /> But Theodore wasn&#039;t going to let it go so easily. &quot;Then I&#039;ll divorce her!&quot; he spat. &quot;Not just anyone can be my wife. If you want someone to take care of me, you&#039;d better hire a caregiver directly.&quot;<br /> <br /> The words hung in the air, freezing the already tense atmosphere. Darian&#039;s face twitched with anger, but he restrained himself. &quot;Divorce is impossible,&quot; he said through gritted teeth. <br /> <br /> Theodore sneered at Darian. &quot;What right do you have to make decisions for me?&quot;<br /> <br /> The tension was palpable in the room as Ariana stood. She felt like a mere onlooker to the father and son&#039;s tumultuous relationship. <br /> <br /> Darian&#039;s voice quivered with fury as he growled, &quot;It was already decided. Ariana just underwent the artificial insemination surgery, and there&#039;s a chance she&#039;s carrying your child.&quot;<br /> <br /> Theodore&#039;s eyes snapped to Ariana, scanning her form as if she was a mere object. <br /> <br /> It felt like an eternity before he chuckled and asked Ariana, &quot;So, should I arrange a doctor for you to get rid of the baby?&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> #Chapter4 He Knew It<br /> <br /> Ariana was in shock after hearing what Theodore had said. She stood there, paralyzed and speechless. <br /> <br /> Darian was seething with anger and lashed out, &quot;What are you saying? This child is of the Anderson family&#039;s lineage!&quot;<br /> <br /> To this, Theodore replied with icy detachment, &quot;The Anderson family has many descendants. This one can be abandoned. And if you don&#039;t want to abandon it, I have ways to make it disappear.&quot;<br /> <br /> Every word was like a crushing blow to Ariana&#039;s heart, leaving her unsettled and anxious. <br /> <br /> Darian was beyond furious and he pointed a trembling finger at Theodore. &quot;How dare you speak to me in that manner? You are an ingrate! Do you not consider me your father?&quot;<br /> <br /> Theodore let out a cold sneer. &quot;Father? You are not worthy of being called that, Darian.&quot;<br /> <br /> The atmosphere was tense, as Darian&#039;s hand came down hard on the lamp, sending it crashing to the floor. <br /> <br /> Ariana took a step back, wary of the explosive emotions of the father and son. <br /> <br /> Despite Darian&#039;s rage, Theodore remained unperturbed. He appeared to be accustomed to the violent outbursts of his father, casually picking up a glass of water and taking a leisurely sip, unfazed by the intense situation. <br /> <br /> Darian took a deep breath, his body radiating anger as he realized there was no use in continuing the conversation. &quot;It&#039;s too soon to be discussing a divorce,&quot; he said, his words dripping with authority. &quot;Ariana just underwent the artificial insemination surgery. We would only find out if it was successful in a month. If you are still adamant about getting a divorce, then we can discuss it.&quot;<br /> <br /> He emphasized the last sentence and leveled a sharp look at Theodore, daring him to object. <br /> <br /> Theodore, however, sneered and remained silent. Even weakened by his illness, he exuded an aura of power that belied his physical state. <br /> <br /> &quot;Think about it,&quot; Darian spat out, the frustration clear in his voice, before turning and storming off in a huff. <br /> <br /> Ariana stood there, unsure of what to do to break the tension between her and Theodore. <br /> <br /> They were married now, and Ariana might have been carrying his child. It would be easier for everyone if they could get along civilly in their future life together. <br /> <br /> But then, she thought about how much he must be suffering from his disability and his short temper. <br /> <br /> After careful consideration, Ariana decided to take the first step to mend their relationship. If she could show him kindness and care, perhaps she could use his affection for her to advance her own plans for revenge. <br /> <br /> Tentatively, Ariana stepped closer to Theodore&#039;s bedside and looked upon his handsome face with nervousness. <br /> <br /> She hesitated for a moment, steeling herself to start a conversation. His gaze was cold and unyielding, but she had to try. &quot;Mr. Anderson, my name is Ariana, and I&#039;m your wife...&quot;<br /> <br /> Her voice trailed off as his icy stare bore into her. She knew she was telling the truth, but he didn&#039;t seem to want to accept it. <br /> <br /> Suddenly, Theodore&#039;s hand shot out and seized hers in a tight grip. Ariana gasped in surprise and stumbled, falling into his arms. <br /> <br /> His body was warm and his scent was intoxicating, overwhelming her senses. <br /> <br /> As she struggled to right herself, Theodore put his other hand on her nape and pressed her head closer. <br /> <br /> Fear welled up inside her as Ariana realized just how dangerous this man could be. <br /> <br /> &quot;You don&#039;t have what it takes to be my wife. This position demands someone who isn&#039;t a coward, someone who isn&#039;t afraid of me. Do you have a guilty conscience? Is that why you&#039;re so nervous around me?&quot; Theodore&#039;s breath was hot on Ariana&#039;s neck as he leaned in to whisper these cutting words, causing her to shiver in fear. <br /> <br /> He gazed down at Ariana as his slender fingers slid beneath the collar of her turtleneck blouse and then touched her neck with the tenderness of a doting lover. <br /> <br /> His gesture sent shivers down her spine and she felt her heart race. <br /> <br /> Ariana&#039;s voice quavered with trepidation as she stuttered, &quot;I... I don&#039;t.&quot;<br /> <br /> Theodore sneered with a malevolent glint in his eyes, relishing the fear he had induced in her. <br /> <br /> Ariana could feel his heartbeat, each thump ringing in her ears like a death knell. <br /> <br /> What did he mean by this? <br /> <br /> Theodore&#039;s voice was low and menacing. &quot;Did you enjoy your time with Jasper in front of me?&quot;<br /> <br /> Panic settled in as Ariana realized that Theodore was awake the entire time on their wedding night. He had seen Jasper sneaking into their room. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> #Chapter5 Terrifying Husband<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Theodore&#039;s eyes bored into her, and for a moment, he seemed to take pleasure in her panic. But when his gaze fell on her belly, his expression twisted into one of pure malice. A cold, cruel glint flickered in his eyes, sending shivers down Ariana&#039;s spine. <br /> <br /> &quot;You&#039;d better hope that you&#039;re not pregnant,&quot; he hissed, his voice laced with venom. &quot;Because if you are, I&#039;ll make sure it never sees the light of day.&quot;<br /> <br /> Her heart sank as she heard the threat in his words. Theodore was every bit as ruthless as Jasper had warned her. Maybe even worse. <br /> <br /> In a desperate bid to save her own life, Ariana lowered her head, her voice trembling with fear as she tried to explain herself. &quot;Theodore, please listen to me. I broke up with Jasper, and I never...&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Get out!&quot; Theodore&#039;s patience ran out, and his face twisted into an icy mask. &quot;I never want to see your face again.&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana realized that convincing Theodore was impossible, no matter how much she tried. She hastened to make her escape, but on her way out, she collided with a sophisticated gentleman in a sleek suit. <br /> <br /> Trembling, she apologized quickly and bolted out of Theodore&#039;s room, not daring to look back. <br /> <br /> Once Horace Silence strode into the room, he immediately observed Theodore&#039;s intense gaze fixed on the spot where Ariana had vanished. It was as if he was lost in deep contemplation, mulling over something of great importance. <br /> <br /> After a moment&#039;s reflection, Horace placed a test report on the nearby bedside table. <br /> <br /> &quot;According to the doctor, your body is healthy, and after some remedial exercises of your legs, you can fully recover. He will continue to cooperate with your orders and pretend that your legs are disabled. Everyone in the Anderson family believes it,&quot; Horace reported to his boss. <br /> <br /> Theodore smiled, the satisfaction clear in his eyes. &quot;Let&#039;s keep them in the dark for a little longer. I want them to think they are invincible before I destroy them.&quot;<br /> <br /> Horace then took out another document. <br /> <br /> &quot;Boss, this contains information about your new wife, Ariana Edwards,&quot; he said, fulfilling his duty as a senior assistant. <br /> <br /> Horace moved to place the document on the bedside table, but Theodore snatched it from him. <br /> <br /> Horace was a bit surprised. Then he spoke with a touch of hesitancy. &quot;You may be surprised to hear this, boss, but Ms. Edwards lived a miserable life. Her life has been marked by a series of unfortunate events that have left her with little recourse. She lost her mother at the tender age of 13, and shortly thereafter, her father remarried a woman who brought with her a girl. The girl is Ms. Edwards&#039; younger half-sister. The existence of Ms. Edwards&#039; stepmother and half-sister was clear proof that her father had been cheating on her mother for ages. <br /> <br /> Fueled by anger, Ms. Edwards left for studies abroad as soon as she became an adult, hoping to escape the pain of her past. However, she didn&#039;t get to see her father again before his death. Yet even with her father&#039;s passing, she was unable to find closure, as her stepmother seized control of the family&#039;s assets and cast her out onto the streets. Given her circumstances, it&#039;s possible she felt she had no choice but to marry you...&quot;<br /> <br /> Theodore&#039;s eyes narrowed as he perused the report, a slight frown marring his features. &quot;Horace, I can read. I don&#039;t need you to interpret,&quot; he said in a clipped tone. <br /> <br /> Horace nodded subserviently, but it wasn&#039;t long before he could no longer hold his tongue. <br /> <br /> &quot;I just feel that Ms. Edwards&#039; past is a little similar to yours. She also has a stepmother, and was—&quot;<br /> <br /> Theodore&#039;s face contorted into a cruel smile as he cut him off. &quot;Do I have to remind you of your surname?&quot; he hissed. <br /> <br /> Horace gulped audibly and took a step back. His boss&#039;s threat was clear. He knew better than to push the issue any further. <br /> <br /> Theodore let out a disdainful snort as he recalled the fear that had been etched on Ariana&#039;s face. The memory only served to deepen his frown. <br /> <br /> *<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Ariana scurried out of Theodore&#039;s room and headed to find the housekeeper, Judy Kelly. <br /> <br /> The warm-hearted, slightly plump middle-aged woman took Ariana&#039;s hands in hers as she persuaded, &quot;Mr. Anderson has just woken up and he may need some time to adjust. Love requires patience and understanding. Please, my dear, be obedient and tolerant toward him. Things might turn around for the better soon.&quot;<br /> <br /> Ariana bit her tongue, holding back the retort that she wouldn&#039;t please that tyrant even if she was out of her mind. <br /> <br /> After Judy arranged a guest room for her, Ariana collapsed onto the bed, exhausted from the day&#039;s events. She fell asleep in no time. <br /> <br /> The next morning, Ariana jolted awake to the blaring sound of her phone alarm. As she blinked away the sleep from her eyes, she gazed up at the unfamiliar ceiling, her heart heavy with confusion and worry. Her mind swirled with thoughts of her future and how uncertain it had become. <br /> <br /> Ariana had foolishly believed that her husband&#039;s death was imminent and that she could secure her place as an Anderson family daughter-in-law. <br /> <br /> But the reality was far from what she had hoped. Not only had Theodore survived, but he also seemed intent on banishing her from the family altogether. <br /> <br /> Ariana groggily reached over and fumbled with her phone until she found the alarm. As she silenced the ringing, a piece of news caught her bleary eyes. &quot;Hundreds of high-price items are on sale at the auction in Ivebridge...&quot;<br /> <br /> The headline grabbed her attention, and she leaned closer to read more. Her eyes widened in shock as she saw the first item on the auction block was a necklace that belonged to her late mother. <br /> &amp;2&amp; LEARN_MORE https://fbweb.moboreader.net/38520322-fb_contact-h 102729319508493 Auroch novel https://facebook.com/100092728788928 15,664 1 454,713,177,016,868 2024-05-05 02:00 person_profile eligible 0 0 NONE 0 1 1 0 Learn more 0 Auroch novel 120208916801200245 fbweb.moboreader.net NONE video https://fbweb.moboreader.net/38520322-fb_contact-hys-0320-core1.html?adid={{ad.id}}&char=066827&accid=263741546706881 2024-04-30 04:38 https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/441027583_463053766154895_1445113939964692145_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=110&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=2kWieJnpe4sQ7kNvgHQPEw-&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.xx&oh=00_AfDrNDWmP9aIOdj3pLS-O19ohAzD2megLn6dDAWWGQlSbg&oe=663E07B6 person_profile 0 Auroch novel https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/441061497_1546086959299879_6180179629894084219_n.jpg?_nc_cat=107&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=ecKmma7PilkQ7kNvgFEtB3e&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.xx&oh=00_AfAUV6TsldHTf42Myn53VU1kTUaiCR2-W2tn96jUuLF21g&oe=663DF977 0 3 Auroch novel 0 0 2024-05-05 02:00 View Edit

No 2024-05-05 19:24 active 742 0 245616678638505 Read with Your Ears➤➤ &quot;I, James Rodriguez, soon to be alpha of Eclipse Pack reject you, Nikolina Reed as my mate and Luna. “ <br /> The pain was blinding for Nikolina. Her next words took both of them by surprise. She was anything but weak and she knew she deserved a lot better than some douche bag who was disrespectful towards his own mate. Alpha or not, he shouldn&#039;t be the one who gets the last laugh.<br /> ***<br /> Nikolina POV<br /> 4 hours earlier<br /> I woke up in a very good mood. I am finally eighteen and today is the day I find my mate. It actually depends on both sides. If they are of age, they&#039;ll find each other soon enough, seventeen is the youngest you can be when you find your mate.<br /> However, most of the time, the guy or the girl have to wait for their other half to come of age, which I think is a great idea.<br /> Yes, I&#039;m a werewolf, specifically the current Beta&#039;s daughter and soon to be Beta&#039;s sister. The disappointment of the family. But that&#039;s okay; I&#039;m not very inclined to make them proud or follow in their footsteps, but mostly they want Alex to do it.<br /> Don&#039;t get me wrong. I&#039;m not abused or bullied; except for the occasional remarks, shunned from society, the usual stuff.<br /> They say I&#039;m ugly, but I know better than to believe that. I could have been popular due to my blue eyes and gold speckles, blonde hair and hourglass figure. But I like to keep to myself. Plus my hair was naturally blonde unlike my mother&#039;s peroxide bleached hair that comes out of bottles and pricey extensions. Actually, dad and Alex both have brown hair so I don&#039;t know how I have blonde hair. For months, I even checked the roots of my hair to find some sort of discoloration to prove that even my hair was bleached. But in vain.<br /> My mom was the stereotypical cheerleader in high school while my dad was the “douche” and quarterback. Apparently they want me to be like them, and social hierarchy exists in packs as well. And my brother is following our parents footsteps, sleeping with more than half of the population, while I&#039;m not.<br /> They revel in attention and bullying people who are lower than them, as they say. To the outside world, my family and I love each other. On the inside it’s an extreme hate relationship, something the pack is aware of except for the Alpha and Luna.<br /> If they knew the truth, my parents, Tiffany and Mark, would lose their respect and beloved Alex&#039;s position would be taken away from him. Which would obviously take his popularity down a notch. Horrifying for him. Entertaining for me.<br /> Anyways, today is also the soon-to-be Alpha&#039;s eighteenth birthday. James Rodriguez.<br /> Sometimes I wonder how someone as sweet and kind as Diana and George, produce a kid like James.<br /> In short, James is the snobby player. It’s actually really surprising how none of the girls are pregnant yet...<br /> Back to me, I dressed up with more care than usual. I wore a baby pink sundress with black gladiator sandals. I applied a bit of winged liner to make my eyes pop. I&#039;ve always read stories about loving mates. Who knows how much of it is true? For all I know, it’s some made up fantasy to make mates seem like the ultimate endgame. Maybe one day, I would meet my mate and then we could run away towards the sunset............or something, I don&#039;t really care.<br /> Apparently, all mates are compatible with their other half. It’s like love at first sight and the males getting all possessive about their mates is very appealing and a turn on, or so I&#039;ve heard.<br /> It&#039;s all hearsay. And I think it’s stupid. It’s like the males are all custom made robots. Why else would their behavior be so alike?<br /> And there was a paragraph about heat and shifting and marking. Maybe, my mate&#039;s gonna go all caveman on me and tear my throat out.<br /> I&#039;m just kidding, morbid thoughts on my birthday are kind of my thing. And its wishful thinking. I don&#039;t care. He might even be an omega and I still wouldn&#039;t care. Even if he&#039;s a human, it wouldn&#039;t matter. And if he&#039;s not in this pack then..... Oh well... It&#039;s better for me. I don&#039;t want to stay in a pack where I have no respect and people treat me bad. Status had once mattered to me. But when you have parents like mine, you kind of start praying not to ever be like them.<br /> Not once did they look at me but of course, Alexander was doted on by everyone. Kids. Parents. Friends. You name it.<br /> Apparently, it&#039;s because he&#039;s a boy. And according to my mother, girls are good for getting screwed, getting hit on, obeying their men, acting flirty along, and popping out heirs.<br /> And lucky for you all, my mother happens to be exhibit A.<br /> You should all be jealous because it&#039;s not everyday that you have a live walking, talking example to show the word and tell them what a hoe your mother is.<br /> Third Person POV <br /> Nikolina walked to school as she was not allowed a car. Though Alex was the proud owner of a shiny Silver Volvo. Double standards were very common in the Reed family. She had always wanted her own car, something that was a stunning shade of bright canary yellow, but that dream was nowhere close to becoming a reality.<br /> All of a sudden, she smelt an amazing scent; peppermint and honey. Lydia purred and rolled around in happiness, barely able to contain her excitement.<br /> On searching for the source, her eyes met warm, hazel orbs. His eyes expressed lust and adoration as they raked all over her body.<br /> Realization finally hit her hard when she saw that James-freaking-Rodriguez was her mate! The next Alpha of Solaris Eclipse Pack. And he was Portia&#039;s long-standing boyfriend.<br /> You know what he did next? James went back to groping the head cheerleader. “Portia.... “ Oh, sorry. Rookie mistake. Portia Scott.<br /> Tears threatened to fall while her wolf Lydia whimpered, seeing her mate touch another...<br /> “Our mate is beautiful.” James&#039;s wolf, Jace said. Nikolina was more than just beautiful. Many males of the pack thought she was gorgeous but never mentioned it out loud due to the fear of facing Alex&#039;s wrath. Alex was the one to start it all: the petty insults, the hateful words and making an outcast out of her. Others had just followed his footsteps. And of course, some of the girls were shallow enough to find happiness by making Nikolina feel miserable, because they were insecure about themselves.<br /> But the main issue was, though James thought Nikolina was pretty, he would never accept her as his mate and Luna. Though she was Beta Mark&#039;s daughter and was of high status, both him and his ego considered her a nobody. He knew about the insults and he had done it as well. In his eyes, she was worthless and all everyone ever did was talk down on her and she never fought back.<br /> He couldn&#039;t have a... thing like that as his mate. Beauty just wasn&#039;t enough for him, being a ruthless woman was a requirement.<br /> “She might be beautiful but I don&#039;t want her. She&#039;s a nobody. If people know that she is my mate, I would become the laughing stock of my pack. Seriously, people walk all over her. She can never be my Luna.” That was the thought going through his mind as he sucked on Portia&#039;s neck hard enough to bruise.<br /> “Ow! You&#039;re hurting me, boo! You know Kelly has my concealer today.” Portia whined but still made no move to shove James away. She just proceeded to grind her lower body into James and trying to get as close as humanly possible without getting rid of her clothes in public.<br /> James finally pried Portia off his body and walked towards his mate. In some ways, Portia was like a bloodsucking leech or an annoying wart, never leaving without a fight.<br /> “Baby, where are you going? I need you!” Her voice was like a cat dragging its claws across a board.<br /> James just signalled her to shut up before walking towards his mate. He would do the right thing, of course, as the future Alpha of Solaris Eclipse Pack and give Nikolina what she deserves.<br /> He stopped in front of her and asked, “What&#039;s your name?”<br /> “Nikolina,” she stated. He soon noticed that she had no friends and no car and he felt the curious stares on his back as everyone&#039;s attention was on him.<br /> “I, James Rodriguez, soon to be alpha of Eclipse Pack reject you, Nikolina Reed as my mate and Luna. “ As he rejected her, Jace whimpered and cowered. And James felt bad but he knew this was the right thing to do for himself and the pack. From his perspective, Nikolina was someone who brought out the worst in people and Portia was way more deserving to be his mate and Luna, considering that she was fearless and wasn&#039;t afraid to fight dirty for her rights.<br /> James was an egoistic douche bag who mistook petty behavior for fearless but he was blinded by the greed for power and popularity.<br /> The pain was blinding for Nikolina. She would have collapsed if not for the anger that surged through her. She was furious. At James. The Moon Goddess. Not realizing how painful rejection was. Her fate. It was a never ending list.<br /> It felt like she was being drowned in liquid bleach, her lungs burned and she saw red. Anger took over the pain she was feeling and she didn&#039;t want to give him the satisfaction of knowing how hurt she was.<br /> Her next words took both of them by surprise. She was anything but weak and she knew she deserved a lot better than some douche bag who was disrespectful towards his own mate. Alpha or not, he shouldn&#039;t be the one who gets the last laugh.<br /> “I, Nikolina Reed, accept your rejection as my mate and Alpha. I sincerely hope you get the clap!”<br /> With that, she turned on her heel and left the school premises.<br /> “Who needs a mate? Especially someone like James. People like him need girls like Portia by their sides, who cater to their whims and needs and whatever freaky carnal desire they might have.” Nikolina thought darkly. She wasn&#039;t going to give in to her pain and this rejection was the final push that encouraged her to chase after her freedom and break bonds with the family who had clipped off her wings.<br /> James felt a tiny bit of hurt realizing that she didn&#039;t even think twice before accepting the rejection and all he could wonder was how did she not burst into tears or grovel at his feet to take her back. Jace did not talk. He just whimpered, feeling the loss of his mate. Before James could think of it anymore, Portia dragged him to an empty classroom to distract her beloved Jamie boo. It seemed as if James wasn&#039;t the least bit affected by the incident with Nikolina, because his actions didn&#039;t falter as he hitched Portia&#039;s skirt up and ripped her panties, drilling her like an animal and releasing himself on her clothes and face as he left her alone to clean up.<br /> Nikolina POV<br /> “Well, he can go drill his toy as much as he wants.” I thought darkly while making my way towards home. All Lydia did was whimper. The moment I saw James, I knew something like this was bound to happen. You don&#039;t have any expectations when someone like him is supposed to be your destined mate. He was born with a big ego and he can just stuff it up his.<br /> “Maybe he regrets hurting us, you know.” Lydia whimpered.<br /> Before I could reply, searing hot pain flooded my senses. I felt myself fall on the pavement and the pain started to become more intense. It is obvious, isn&#039;t it? He&#039;s already drilling someone just minutes after rejecting me. It felt like my body was set on fire and the blistering flames charred my skin.<br /> I slowly got up and almost keeled over as my vision turned white. Dizziness washed over me. I had to clench my fists and dig my fingers hard enough to draw blood. Getting away from him and this stupid pack is my best bet. He was doing it intentionally considering the fact he knows that we&#039;re both connected unless one of us dies or gets marked by another. Walking never felt so strenuous and with every step I had to force myself to not curl up on the pavement and cry. I know I deserve someone better but I did want to cry my pain away.<br /> After what seemed like hours, the pain slowly ebbed away. Painful times ahead. The only problem is that the mate bond doesn&#039;t break even after being rejected. Only if the rejected is marked by the first mate or by another, or if one of the mates die, will the bond break.<br /> I entered my house and went to my room to pack my bags. You know, in every werewolf story the rejected mate writes letters before leaving. There&#039;s no logic to it. I mean, don&#039;t you get it? No one cares if you leave. No one cares if you die. No one cares if you slit your throat or get molested or murdered. That&#039;s the harsh truth. Why should I open my feelings on a letter make them feel pity? I can just run away and live my best life, away from them. It&#039;s not like they will send out search teams for you.<br /> I don&#039;t want pity. I can do better than that. I picked up my red lipstick and wrote in capitals before leaving. I know I&#039;m dramatic but it serves them right. They&#039;ll remember this for years to come: women can walk away without feeling a twinge of guilt or regret.<br /> Showing vulnerability would only make me seem weak and I&#039;ve let people walk over me way too many times.<br /> My mom was probably busy getting her hair done or something. That&#039;s the only thing she ever does. Or her nails. Or maybe she was out shopping with snobby people like herself. It&#039;s obvious that birds of a feather flock together. The only thing I ever liked about her is that she cooked for us, sometimes. Mom made a mean lasagna.<br /> Dad was probably with Alpha George. That&#039;s usually where he is. But then again, he also has this terrible habit of getting drunk during daylight hours. And once he even groped some other girl in front of the whole pack. Mom turned an ugly shade of red as she kicked him in the crotch. Those were the good days. It was fun when he laid on the couch with a bag of frozen peas on his groin and mom was nowhere around.<br /> Leaving was better for me anyway. Nothing was tying me down to this place. No friends. No proper family. I would be doing myself and them a favor.<br /> I took my dad&#039;s sleek black Porsche for my escapade. I might as well leave loaded and in style, besides it&#039;s high time I had a car.<br /> Just as I reached the pack border, I said, “I, Nikolina Reed, break all ties with the Solaris Eclipse Pack.” The patrol guards looked at me, but its not like they would stop me.<br /> The pack links broke and with that I revved up the engine and sped through the borders, driving towards my new life. A better life. It was a blessing that this pack did not care enough to stop me.<br /> <br /> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<br /> Wanna continue this incredible story?

My dad died from brain cancer last year after battling long enough to see his granddaughters turn two. He loved them more than anything. It&#039;s been hard for us, especially my mom, but we&#039;re getting by. I graduated from the University of San Diego last year with a teaching degree in English, and am going on my second year of teaching at my old high school, Fremont High School. Jordyn, my 17 year old sister, is a junior there.<br /> Ever since my pregnancy, I&#039;ve had help from my family, Josh&#039;s family, and our friends. I couldn&#039;t really hide Josh&#039;s daughters from his parents since the girls are their granddaughters, and they promised not to tell him. Let&#039;s just say that they weren&#039;t too pleased with how Josh left. I&#039;ve tried to tell Josh about Brynlee and Keegan, but he doesn&#039;t answer any of my calls or I chickened out. Cory and Tyler have offered to tell him since he actually keeps in contact with them, along with his family, but I want him to hear it from me. Now, I think it&#039;s a little too late to tell him especially since he&#039;s happy on his own. He&#039;s off playing professional baseball for the New York Yankees while dating multiple girls, according to the gossip sites.<br /> Josh&#039;s sister, Delaney, got married last year at a destination wedding that only included close family members. I was invited since the girls are her nieces, but I declined the invitation knowing I would have to see him. She is now a pediatrician while her husband, Landon Gray, took over his father&#039;s oil company. My best friend, Elena Pratt, just graduated from nursing school and started her new job at the local hospital. She is also currently engaged to Tyler Stephens, Josh and I&#039;s best friend. They&#039;ve been dating since our junior year of high school. Tyler works alongside Landon as the financial manager. Cory Sutton, Josh and I&#039;s other best friend, is now a gym teacher and baseball coach at Fremont High School. He was suppose to become a professional baseball player like Josh, but he suffered a serious shoulder injury which ended his playing days. Teaching was always his backup.<br /> The continuous jumping on my bed followed by loud giggles disturbed my sleep. My eyes fluttered open to see two toddlers wide awake.<br /> &quot;Mommy!&quot; Keegan screamed as she jumped onto me with the intention of a hug. Her knotted brown hair fell to the sides of her face as her big brown eyes gleamed with excitement. Brynlee continued jumping as her blonde hair bounced with her.<br /> &quot;Good morning to you girlies too,&quot; I responded hugging Keegan as Brynlee cuddled to my side. &quot;What do you girls want for breakfast?&quot;<br /> &quot;WAFFLES!&quot; They both squealed jumping from the bed as they ran out of my bedroom. I then got up from the comfort of my bed sheets and put my fuzzy gray robe on over my pajamas that consisted of shorts and an old t-shirt. When I reached the kitchen, the girls were there digging the Eggo waffles out of the freezer.<br /> &quot;Can you put the box on the counter for me?&quot; I asked as I pulled out the toaster from one of the many cabinets. Keegan did as I told her and then ran to the living room with Brynlee following behind. She then turned on the TV to their favorite show, Doc McStuffins. I put three waffles into the toaster and waited for them to pop back out when they were done.<br /> Looking over at the girls brought back memories. I was absolutely shocked when I found out I was having twins.<br /> I laid down waiting for the doctor to enter while my mom sat in the nearby chair. I anxiously played with my long painted nails looking down at my small bump. Soon enough the doctor came into the room.<br /> &quot;Hello, I&#039;m Dr. Valente. You must be Sabrina and her mom,&quot; she greeted shaking my mom&#039;s hand then moving over to me. &quot;Are we ready to see the little one?&quot;<br /> I nodded my head as she instructed what to do before putting the gel on my stomach. She had the screen pointed towards her allowing me to only see the shocked expression on her face.<br /> &quot;What&#039;s wrong?&quot; I asked suddenly worried.<br /> &quot;Nothing&#039;s wrong, but it looks like you&#039;re having twins.&quot; The minute the words came out of her mouth, my jaw dropped to the floor.<br /> I&#039;m having two babies.<br /> The sudden sound of waffles popping out of the toaster brought me back to reality. I began to fix me and the girls a plate before calling them over to the dining table. As they scooped pieces of the waffle into their mouth, I got a text from Elena.<br /> Are you on your way??<br /> Yes but we might be a little late.<br /> I completely lost track of time and now we&#039;re going to be late for Elena&#039;s meeting with her wedding planner. Since I&#039;m the maid of honor, she wants me there too.<br /> It&#039;s currently 10:25, and we have to be at her house at 10:30 which is a 7 minute drive. Great.<br /> &quot;Girls, go brush your teeth and then come to your bedroom,&quot; I instructed grabbing the empty plates from the table and rinsing them off in the sink. They sprinted off to the bathroom while I went to pick out their outfits for today.<br /> I pulled two matching floral dresses from their closet as they came running in. I then grabbed their white converses and helped them get dressed.<br /> Once finished they ran to the living room where Doc McStuffins was still playing on the TV. While they were occupied, I ran over to my room to get myself dressed. I put on a simple black and white striped button up that was halfway tucked into light denim shorts. I then slipped on sandals before pulling my blonde hair into a high ponytail.<br /> After brushing my teeth and putting on my makeup, I got the girls out the apartment door and we headed to the car. I buckled them into their car seats and started the car. When Will My Life Begin from Tangled played non stop the whole car ride.<br /> We soon arrived to Elena and Tyler&#039;s house. Once Keegan was free from the buckles, she sprinted from where the car was parked on the driveway into Tyler&#039;s arms. As soon as he saw the car pull in, he slammed the door open ready to see his nieces. Brynlee, on the other hand, was fast asleep in her car seat. She stirred slightly when I picked her up, and then laid her head on my shoulder.<br /> &quot;Is someone sleepy?&quot; I asked in the voice you make when talking to a child. She then nodded with her eyes still closed making me chuckle.<br /> I entered into the house to see Elena and another woman sitting at the kitchen counter. They didn&#039;t notice me at first until Bryn let out a little yawn.<br /> &quot;Hey Sab, this is Rebecca, my wedding planner. Rebecca, this is my best friend and maid of honor, Sabrina,&quot; Elena introduced. I smiled at the red-headed woman in front of me. Rebecca had to be in her mid-forties, but she was in incredible shape.<br /> &quot;It&#039;s nice to meet,&quot; I greeted shaking her hand. &quot;I need to lay this little one down somewhere so I&#039;ll be right back.&quot;<br /> I walked out of the kitchen and into the living room were Keegan and Tyler were both watching Peppa Pig. I set Bryn on the couch and she immediately cuddled into Tyler&#039;s side.<br /> &quot;How&#039;s the little princess?&quot; Ty asked cuddling her.<br /> &quot;Sleepy,&quot; I answered. &quot;Well I need to go back to your fianc茅e so make sure they don&#039;t injure themselves.&quot;<br /> &quot;Are you still holding that against me?&quot;<br /> &quot;You dropped my daughter.&quot;<br /> &quot;So what do we have so far?&quot; I asked coming back into the kitchen after a small argument with Tyler. I won!<br /> &quot;The color scheme is going to be burgundy and gold. We&#039;ve also set the date for November 6 which is a Saturday,&quot; Elena answered as I sat in the chair next to her.<br /> &quot;Now we&#039;ll discuss who&#039;s in the wedding and the smaller details like decorations,&quot; Rebecca directed. &quot;So who all is in the wedding?&quot;<br /> &quot;Well we have both of our parents. Sabrina is my maid of honor. Tyler&#039;s best friend, Cory, is his best man. Our flower girls are Keegan and Brynlee, Sabrina&#039;s daughters. The ring bearer is Tyler&#039;s cousin, Nathan.&quot;<br /> &quot;Okay, what about bridesmaids and groomsmen?&quot;<br /> &quot;For bridesmaids, I have Delaney, Angela, Kelly, Haley, and Jordyn,&quot; she listed. Delaney is Josh&#039;s sister which we are both really close to. Angela and Kelly are two soon-to-be nurses that Elena met at med school. Haley is her 14 year old sister while Jordyn is my sister.<br /> &quot;For the groomsmen, there is Landon, Calum, Griffin, Scott, and...&quot; her voice faded as she looked over at me with a worried look as I just gave her a confused look back. Landon is Delaney&#039;s husband and Tyler&#039;s boss/ friend. Calum is a buddy from college. Griffin is Tyler&#039;s 17 year old brother, and Scott is his 12 year old brother.<br /> Who else is there... wait.<br /> I immediately changed my confused expression to one of horror.<br /> &quot;Who is the last groomsmen?&quot; Rebecca asked clearly not seeing the look on my face.<br /> &quot;Josh,&quot; Elena said the one name that made my world come crashing down.<br /> This is going to be a wonderful wedding.<br /> Josh&#039;s POV<br /> I was sitting on my tan couch looking at the muted TV in front of me as I waited for Tyler to answer his phone. Luckily, he answered on the third ring.<br /> &quot;Hey man, shouldn&#039;t you being doing something baseball related?&quot; He asked.<br /> &quot;Hey,&quot; I greeted. &quot;Today is my day off.&quot;<br /> &quot;Ah, so why are you calling me at 8 in the morning on your day off? You should be sleeping in.&quot;<br /> &quot;I guess I&#039;m just use to waking up early,&quot; I lied knowing that I didn&#039;t even sleep last night. I mean how could I? This penthouse is quite lonely when you&#039;re actually in it. I&#039;m barely ever here due to playing. When I am here I tend to think, and thinking leads to no sleep.<br /> Most of the time, I am out like a light when I hit my bed since training wore me out, but I wasn&#039;t necessarily tired.<br /> &quot;We both know that&#039;s a lie. You didn&#039;t sleep last night did you?&quot;<br /> He knows me too well.<br /> &quot;Maybe.&quot;<br /> &quot;Is it about Sabrina?&quot; He asked already knowing the answer to that question. It&#039;s always about her. She&#039;s in my mind all the time. I like to use playing and partying as a way to forget about her, but it never works. I even try to get with other girls, but back out when it comes to taking them home. They&#039;re just not her.<br /> &quot;Can we not talk about it?&quot; I asked ready to change the subject. &quot;What are you doing right now?&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s 8 o&#039;clock on a Monday morning. What do you think I&#039;m doing?&quot;<br /> &quot;Sorry. Did I interrupt anything at work?&quot; I cringe knowing I didn&#039;t even think about him possibly being busy.<br /> &quot;Nah, I just got here,&quot; he said knowing I would feel guilty for interrupting something.<br /> &quot;You&#039;re a jerk.&quot;<br /> &quot;I know. Now why are you calling me?&quot;<br /> &quot;Can&#039;t I just say hi to my friend?&quot;<br /> &quot;Not when we literally talked last night about the wedding,&quot; he reminded. Last night, after the meeting with the wedding planner, he gave me the details of the date so I could work it out with my schedule. That also reminds me that I need to talk to Coach.<br /> &quot;Fine,&quot; I gave in. &quot;I just want to know how she is.&quot;<br /> &quot;Sabrina is fine. Today is actually the first day of school.&quot;<br /> &quot;Was she nervous?&quot;<br /> &quot;Why don&#039;t you ask her yourself?&quot; These past few years, I&#039;ve constantly asked Cory and Tyler how Sab was doing. They would get annoyed every once in a while, and they were pretty mad at me when I first left. I completely understand though. What I did was a bad move, but there&#039;s no way to take it back.<br /> &quot;Because if I call her and hear her voice, I know I&#039;m going to automatically get a plane ticket to San Diego.&quot;<br /> &quot;You&#039;re going to have to see her at the wedding though.&quot;<br /> &quot;I know.&quot;<br /> &quot;Cory, if you don&#039;t hurry up, I&#039;m leaving your hip here,&quot; I heard her growl out.<br /> Sabrina.<br /> The sound of her voice just hit me. It hasn&#039;t changed one bit, and man do I miss it.<br /> &quot;Well I got to go. See you soon,&quot; he ended the call leaving me to think about her.<br /> I have exactly 2 weeks until I see her again, and I&#039;m not sure if I&#039;m completely ready.<br /> <br /> Sabrina&#039;s POV<br /> Now it&#039;s time for lunch, and I&#039;m craving some Panera. Cory and I both have a lunch break now since we don&#039;t have classes during lunch period. I&#039;m currently making my way toward the gym to meet with him so we can drive over to Panera Bread.<br /> &quot;Cory, if you don&#039;t hurry up, I&#039;m leaving your hip here,&quot; I practically yelled out after barging into his office.<br /> &quot;Well I got to go. See you soon,&quot; Cory said into his phone making me realize that he was taking to someone.<br /> &quot;Was that an important phone call?&quot;<br /> &quot;No, it was just Josh,&quot; he spoke.<br /> &quot;What&#039;d he want?&quot; I said with a disgusted tone as we walked toward his car.<br /> &quot;Just talking about the wedding.&quot;<br /> When we finally got to Panera, I jumped out of the car wanting nothing more than a good sandwich. With Cory following behind, I entered and stood in line ready to order.<br /> &quot;Did he say when he was coming back? I need to prepare myself.&quot; I said worried of what would happen when he sees the girls or when I finally see him in person for the first time in four years.<br /> What if I blurt out that he&#039;s a father? What if he figures it out on his own?<br /> &quot;He&#039;s coming September 10,&quot; Cory replied with a concerned face as I gave him one of horror.<br /> &quot;That&#039;s not enough time.&quot;<br /> &quot;Enough time for what?&quot;<br /> &quot;For me to change my name and leave the country.&quot;<br /> &quot;Sabrina,&quot; he gave me a stern look. &quot;I think it&#039;s time to tell him about Keegan and Brynlee. He deserves to know.&quot;<br /> &quot;I know, and I&#039;ll try,&quot; I said. &quot;If I don&#039;t tell him by the time he leaves then you have my permission to tell him yourself.&quot;<br /> <br /> Josh&#039;s POV<br /> I walked out of the gym with my shirt hanging over my shoulder, my water bottle in one hand, and my phone in the other. Before I made it to my car, a blonde girl stood in front of my door.<br /> &quot;Hello, hot stuff,&quot; she greeted with a smirk and a wink.<br /> &quot;Hi?&quot; I questioned wondering who this woman is.<br /> &quot;I&#039;m Tiffany, and I was just about to go to the gym when I saw you,&quot; she explained.<br /> &quot;You were about to go to the gym in jeans?&quot; I asked taking in her outfit. Does she think I&#039;m stupid?<br /> &quot;Yeah-,&quot; she was cut off by the sound of my phone ringing. I looked down to see it was Cory calling.<br /> &quot;I have to take this,&quot; I stated as she moved away from the door allowing me to get in my car. I immediately answered the phone while also starting the car.<br /> &quot;Hey man, what&#039;s up?&quot; I greeted as I pulled out of the parking lot leaving the girl standing there.<br /> &quot;Nothing much. I actually need your help coming up with ideas for Tyler&#039;s bachelor party.&quot;<br /> &quot;Well Tyler is a kid at heart, so I would definitely do something fun like a trampoline park or an amusement park,&quot; I responded as I heard loud squeals in the background. It&#039;s sounds like an actual child.<br /> &quot;Hold on,&quot; he told me. &quot;Keegan get down from the counter you&#039;re going to fall.&quot;<br /> Who&#039;s Keegan?<br /> &quot;Okay, I&#039;m back,&quot; he stated after a long pause filled with giggles. &quot;A trampoline park sounds great.&quot;<br /> &quot;Yeah,&quot; I agreed still confused. &quot;Who&#039;s Keegan?&quot;<br /> &quot;Oh-,&quot; he was cut off by the sound of cries. &quot;Brynlee, what did your mother say about running down the stairs? Hey man, I have to go. Talk to you later.&quot;<br /> Before I could respond back, he hung up.<br /> Who is Keegan? Who is Brynlee? Whose kids are they? Did Cory have kids without telling me?
