Chapter 66Writer's POVSitting with the family at the dining and eating with them later seems to be the best moment of Ariel's life, but knowing her mom is missing here, she feels a bit sad. She is still finding it difficult to fit in, especially at the thought of the woman not liking her."Why didn't you come with your husband?" Joann, the eldest of the two kids suddenly asks out of the blue moon as she glances at Ariel."I heard he is really cute. Why didn't you bring him with you?" The second one, Ella asks as she pouts her lips, and Ariel smiles at them, as she glances at her dad, but he turns his gaze away, and she already knows the possible reason. Maybe he already knows that she married Alicia's ex-husband."What is going on here?" Alicia's voice suddenly disrupts the cool atmosphere as she walks into the dining room, but she stops abruptly on her track and pulls a surprised look when she spots Ariel sitting with her family."What is happening here, Dad, Mom?" She asks, trying
Chapter 67 Max paces restlessly in the hospital hallway, his heart beating rapidly against his chest. He rushed down to the hospital after Henry called him that he already took Ariel here. He has been here for the past twenty minutes, and nobody seems to be talking to him about the condition of his wife. Shortly, the door to the theatre opens, and he turns to see one of the nurses come out of there. He quickly scurries to her "Excuse me, how is my wife, please? Is she ok? Why is nobody coming out yet? Are there any complications?" He bombards the nurse with a series of questions as he walks beside her. "I'm sorry, Mr. Maxwell, I can't answer your questions yet. I need to get something for the doctor," And that said, the nurse hurries away, and his heart sinks into his stomach as fear grips him. He gulps down the lump in his throat, praying fervently that nothing happens to her, especially as the realization dawns on him that the pregnancy was just seven months. He watches as the
Chapter 68 Alicia POV I know things can suddenly turn around, crazy things suddenly happen sometimes, but one thing I could never have imagined in my life, was Ariel turning out to be Mr. Daniel's biological daughter. I have been finding it difficult to believe, and to think that they turned against me and fought for her makes me feel so horrible. I know I don't belong here, I have been an imposter hiding under the guise of being an orphan, but I didn't deserve any of the treatment, right? As I drive back to my hotel room where I'm staying, I just feel like running into a truck and ending everything right away. I feel so miserable to the point of thinking of suicide, but on second thought, I feel like it's really not the best thing to do. Not at this point that I'm on the verge of getting what I want. Yes, I'm going to settle down with the man I love, and that is all that matters to me. As I pull over at the side of the road, tired of driving, I reach out for my phone and dial Ale
Chapter 69 At the hospital The surgery was done successfully, and I'm glad to be a father, not just a father, but to a set of twins. Yes! Ariel gave me a set of girl twins, and they are so pretty. Gosh! I have to be the happiest man on earth right now. Although I can't touch the babies yet, since they are incubated, but still, I can't help but be really excited. My biggest happiness is my woman making it out of that operation room alive, because why not? She has been sleeping the whole day after the operation, and the doctor told me not to worry about anything since she was sedated, that it was the reason she was still sleeping, and guess what? I can't wait for her to be awake so I can break the news of our child to her. As I step out of the ward, I stop on my track when I hear Mr. Daniel and Ariel's mom arguing. I haven't talked about this, but it feels crazy that Ariel turned out to be this man's daughter. That plot twist was what I never imagined in my lifetime,
Chapter 70 Mr. Dante paces restlessly in his living room alone. He looks like something is bothering him, and just then, the entrance door opens and a young man walks inside. He is graced in black leather trousers and a shirt that clings to his body, he has a face cap on and a black mask that covers the lower part of his face, making his face invisible. "I'm sorry for coming late, boss," His voice is muffled by the mask as he speaks. "I have a job for you, Viper..." Mr. Dante utters before he turns to face the young man. He brings his phone out of his pocket and scrolls through it before he turns the screen to the young man. "That woman... I want her to be gotten rid of. I will send you every necessary detail you would need about her. I want you to do that tomorrow night, and make sure to leave no trace as usual," Mr. Dante says to the young man, and he nods his head. "I will do that, boss," Viper replies to him, and the corner of his lips slowly twitches into
Chapter 71 Max POV As I drive down the road, many questions linger on my mind. Who is this woman I'm going to meet? I ask myself, deciding on whether to drive back from here or continue the journey out of curiosity. I just hope that this is not some sort of setup. I asked Alex to help me watch over Ariel and the babies since I have somewhere to be, and he is currently in the hospital, waiting for me. Following the address that was sent to me, I finally arrive at the place, and I find someone standing in front of the building she had described for me. "Max..." She waves her hand in the air, telling me that she is the one I have come to see, and I hesitate for a while before I finally walk over to her. "Who are..." "We don't have all the time in the world, Max... You need to take me to a safe place so we can talk, ok?" She pleads with me as she looks around the place with fear written all over her. "What do you mean? I don't even know you, so why
Chapter 72 Tears brim in his eyes as he drives down the road minutes later. He tries to get everything off his head, but the more he tries to, the more it keeps coming in, and he can't help but feel frustrated. Finding out that his supposed dad was a gold digger wasn't the problem, but the fact that they never have anything to do with this man, and the fact that he lied to Alex to turn them against each other. How else can one be crueler? He pulls over at the side of the road and hits his hands on the steering wheel as more tears came streaming down his cheeks. Why do bad things keep happening to him? Why do they keep coming just when one is almost over? What the hell was his offense to have been punished like this? Those were the questions he keeps asking himself as more tears stream down his cheeks. He feels like his heart is being ripped off his chest. It hurts. Finally pushing all the thoughts to the back of his mind, he drives back to the hospital to join Alex.
Chapter 73 Max POV My head has been messed up the last three days, and I haven't really been thinking straight, no matter how much I try to. Ariel hasn't been in her right frame of mind too after she found out about what happened, and I have myself to blame for that. I should've still kept it from her. "What do you plan to do now that we've found them, Max?" Alex asks as he stares at me, and I sigh briefly. We are currently on the balcony of the hospital, watching the stars in the sky together as the gentle breeze blows on our faces. After a thorough investigation, we found Dante's family. Well, I had someone stalk him, and I got the information that his wife and so-called children were last with their mom at the hospital, but they were discharged yesterday, and they have moved back to their house, which I also have the address of. "That bastard betrayed our mom all because of his selfish desires. What if I had succeeded in hurting you? Then he would get rid of me and
