"I missed you," she purred, Tyler unwound her arms that snaked his waist and then turned to face her. "Do you need anything?" Tyler said with a gentle tone.Everytime she said she missed him Tyler would buy something for her. The last time she said she missed him, he bought a red Ferrari sports car for her. "You're all I need, Tyler," Sophia hugged him tightly as if he was his lifeline. "I have to go. I'll send money in your account," he pulled away from her and left without giving her a back glance. At 10 in the evening, Tyler arrived at the old mansion. He came to know from Simeon that Jade had arrived thirty minutes ago. "Didn't you go to your son?" Tyler said as he loosened his tie. "I did. He slept early today so I was able to leave early," Jade said monotonously. Her eyes were as dull as her voice. "Why don't you take him here to live with us?" Tyler removed his shirt revealing his athletic figure, Jade blue eyes grew wide, not because of his alluring body but because of
If she could only stop the earth from rotating and make the sun stand still, she would do it. Unfortunately, she had no power to do it. So, the sun set and evening came. Jade was on tenterhooks as Tyler intended to have intimacy with her tonight. She grabbed a bottle of wine and glass, and brought it to their bedroom. Intimacy was inevitable for a married couple, she couldn't escape from it forever. She'd rather make way for this horrible thing to pass without remembering it the next day. Wine was her ally and helper to get through this ordeal. Just the thought of those hands, lips and his member being used to pleasure another woman makes her want to throw up. She grimaced when she made the first sip of the wine. She never drank alcohol before. "Eeww!," she wondered why many were addicted to alcohol when it tasted horrible. She never thought that one day she would resort to drinking alcohol. If Tyler wanted to make love to her every night that would mean she would drink every
In a bad mood, Jade wanted to cool off first before seeing her son. She didn't want him to feel her foul mood. Hence, she went shopping to buy him clothes and toys. Meanwhile, Tyler received a call from General Max. "Do you even regard me as your cousin and friend?" Max said annoyingly. "Hey, hey, what's all this drama?" Tyler chuckled. Since he left the military, Tyler and Max conversation weren't of a superior - subordinate type. "You haven't told me that you have a son with Jade Leitner," Max sounded hurt. He and Tyler were close friends but he wasn't told that Jade gave birth to Tyler's son. "What are you talking about? We don't have a child together," Tyler frowned, creating creases on his forehead. "What do you mean you don't have a child with her? I overheard her a while ago telling a woman that Luke wasn't his father and she hadn't conceived her son out of wedlock," Max was confused why didn't Tyler know about his son. Max knew that the divorce certificate was fake and t
For the first time, Jade saw her son threw a tantrum. Tim was a boy who was easy to persuade but this time no matter how hard she convinced him, he stubbornly rejected Tyler. In the end, Tyler left the mother and son, and went back to the company. Tyler went to a shopping mall and bought toys for Tim after his meeting. Quickly, as soon as the car came to a full stop, Tyler got out of the car with the toys he bought for his son. Since Tyler bought whatever the sales person told him to be popular with kids at the time the driver had to follow him inside the mansion, carrying many bags filled with toys. If his cousin General Max hadn't overheard Jade, he would have no idea that he had a son with Jade. She asked him the night before his departure to New York. What would have happened if he realized earlier that he loved her from the beginning?Leaving him would never come across her vocabulary. Three whole years, no, four whole years. He wasn't there by Jade's side. A lugubrious lo
A wave of panic swept over Jade. Wine was banned in this house as Colton had gastritis. She couldn't have physical intimacy with Tyler while she was sober. She had to think of a way to stop him. She scurried to Colton's room and took out the sleeping pills from the drawer. She ate three sleeping pills. Then came back to her room. Hastily, she came into the walk-in cabinet and took a t- shirt for him and placed them on the chair near the bed. Without missing a bit she slipped under the covers and closed her eyes. Tyler chuckled as soon as he saw her sleeping. "Escaping from me, wife? Try all you can but you can't outsmart me," he stripped his robe and dove into the bed. Tyler tried to wake her up by nibbling her lips but there was not a single response from her nor did she stir. Once again, he bit her lower lip a little hard but she didn't react. "Jade, Jade, love wake up," he patted her face but she hadn't woken up. Tyler recollected her vomiting episode. He jumped from the b
Bowing her head and looking at her toes, Jade replied. "What are you going to do if I told you, I hated you with all my heart?"Her answer was like a punch at his chest making him hard to breathe. A moment of silence spread across the room beforeTyler said, "Tell me what to do to erase your hatred." "A clever man does not need someone to tell what he needed to do," Jade answered softly, rendering Tyler speechless. The sound of the door latching to the door jamb told Jade that she's alone in the room. Still feeling lethargic, Jade went back to the bed. She stared at the white ceiling, lapsing into a gloomy self -absorption and lost track of time. A knock on the door brought back Jade from her musing. "Come in," she assented and sat up. "Mom," Jade said in a chirpy manner when Cecilia's figure emerged from outside. "How are you? Tyler called me and asked me to look after you," Cecilia said while she drew near to Jade. Two servants came in to bring food and clothes for Jade. "T
"Mommy, we are going to an amusement park," Tim bubbled over, his hazel eyes, like that of Tyler were twinkling in excitement Jade shifted her gaze from her high spirited son to the man sitting next to her quietly. Bedazzling pairs of hazel green eyes met her enchanting blue ones. Instinctively Luke knew she was asking for an explanation and didn't wait for her to talk. "He said he wanted to spend time with you as you haven't spent much time with him lately." Guilt pang spread across her chest. Truly she hadn't spent much time with her son for the past few days.Jade cupped her son's face and kissed his forehead dotingly. "Let mommy make it up to you." Jade stood to get her bag and they left for the amusement park. As they were happily walking after a fun filled ride, they crossed paths with the people Jade didn't want to see. Tyler with Jason in his arms while his chin rested on Tyler's broad shoulders and Sophia whose hands clung to Tyler's arm. The sight brought an immense p
Each passing moment that there was no response from Jade, his heartbeat escalated. He kicked the door numerous times but it was not a low quality door that could be kicked open. He decided to look for a spare key and without thinking what people would think about him he shouted for Wilbur. Tyler's booming voice reverberated in the whole house waking everyone else. "Sir, what's the matter?" Wilbur said as he rubbed his sleepy eyes. "Spare key on Jade's bathroom," Tyler yelled. The urgency in Tyler's voice woke up Wilbur. As Tyler ran back to Jade's room he saw Tim walking towards Jade room. "Go back to your room!" He said in a commanding tone. Tim, whose sleep was disturb because of all the noises, cried out loud, feeling aggrieved.Tyler felt helpless, he was torn between coaxing his son and going back to the room. "Tim," Pearl hugged Tim to pacify him and took him back to his room. Gregory, who just woken up by the commotion, sobered instantly when he heard Tyler was demand
