Chapter 62
Valerie sat with her friends, Silver and Anaya at a different table. They were chatting and having coffee together.Valerie had called them together to complain about the problems she was encountering in her life.She took a sip from her coffee and placed the mug on the table before saying to them.“I can't believe how worse things have gotten for me and my family. Now I have lost my child and my marriage with Maurice is over.”"Everything happened so fast that I can't really comprehend how it happened.While Silver was paying attention to Valerie's complaint, Anaya's gaze was elsewhere.“Is that not Maxwell, your ex-husband and a lady having coffee over there.” Anaya said while pointing towards a direction.She interrupted Valerie's complaints and they all turned to the direction.When Valerie saw Maxwell and Angel, her anger rose and she suddenly began to breathe heavily.“What are they doing here?" She muttered to herself while balling her fists.Valerie had learned the truth about

After Angel dropped the call, she turned to her friend in a very bright smile before saying to her.“The risk I took in abducting myself was worth it. It's already paying off.” Angel announced excitedly before running off to change into something nice.She had planned to go and get her luggage from her apartment later. Since she urgently came to her friend's house the previous night, she had no clothes to change into so Gratel was willing to share her wardrobe with Angel.Angel was soon back to the sitting room in a simple dressing of trousers and shirt.Maxwell only asked her out for a coffee. It's not like they were going for a dinner date.If it was a dinner outing, Angel would surely look her best.“Are you sure you're not going to tell him what truly transpired? You have to tell him the truth or he'd never forgive you if he finds out what you did on his own.” Gratel admonished her but she made a joke out of it."I'm gradually getting him to look my way. What does it matter how I

After giving them a stern warning, Maxwell turned around and began to walk away. He got into his car and as they were about to drive away, Valerie blocked their way.She refused to leave the way and Maxwell was forced to come out of the car.“What is this supposed to mean? Do you want to be run over by my car?” He scolded Valerie who only stood at a spot without a word.Her parents just watched from a distance, unable to fathom what was going on in their daughter's mind.After a long pause, Valerie walked up to Maxwell and stood before his face. She put on a straight and gave Maxwell a thorough scrutiny before commenting.“Have you lost your humanity? How could you come here and say those hurtful words to me when I did nothing wrong to you. I just lost my baby and l'm also going through a heartbreak.”"Are you angry that our marriage did not end well? Was that why you targeted Maurice so that my marriage would be affected?”Valerie suddenly fell silent, stared intently at Maxwell's fa

The next morning, Maxwell was driven to the Morgans’ residence. He went there to confront them and let them know that he was not ignorant of what they did.They had the nerve to send people to kidnap him.They pulled over outside the gate and he came down and knocked roughly on it.Since the Morgans did not have any domestic staff, one of them had to come out to attend to the gate.Patricia Morgan was already working on the yard when she heard the knock on the gate so she decided to check it out.When she opened the gate and saw that it was Maxwell, she went completely dumb and stood at a spot gaping at him.“W… What are you doing here?” Patricia regained herself and muttered the question."Hmph.” Maxwell let out a dry chuckle and with a bright smile on his face, he replied to her."Why do you look so shocked like you've seen a ghost? It's still me, Maxwell, your ex son-in-law in flesh and blood." “And I came here to show my face and let you guys know that you will never succeed." "

Angel glanced briefly at Gratel and looked away."I don't know what you're talking about.” She spoke in defense but her friend did not believe her.Angel quickly opened the elevator and got inside it while her friend followed behind.“I'm still waiting for a response from you. Tell me what you did." Gretel probed further but Angel kept denying it."I didn't do anything, please give me a break.” Angel kept denying everything until they got into Gratel's apartment.When she saw that her friend was not giving up, she decided to tell Gratel the truth.“Look, Gratel. You're the only one I'm telling this to so don't say it outside." “Ok, I'm listening." “I staged the kidnap." Angel confessed and left her friend stunned. With her mouth open, she stared intently at her friend for a while, wondering the kind of person she was.“How could you do such a thing? And for what reason?" Gratel kept trying to comprehend what Angel just told her.She staged her own kidnap."I already told you that I

As their eyes met, Gratel swallowed hard and turned her face away. She decided not to speak further.Gratel felt Maxwell's gaze on her and when she turned to look at him, she saw him sizing her up.Maxwell's gaze was cold as he stood aloof, glaring at the young lady who was obviously uncomfortable from his gaze.After a long pause, he muttered in a deep hoarse voice. “Uh, I guess I misjudged you. I should have listened to you when you came to make the report.”"Well, Angel is safe now and that's all that matters.” Maxwell gave her one last look before turning to Angel."Come on, let's get you to the hospital for a check up.” He muttered and got back into the car.“Come with me, please." Angel said to her friend, giving her a pleading look. Gratel wanted to refuse her but had no other choice as Angel continued to probe her.“Ok, fine." Gratel rolled her eyes before adding. “I'll follow you but you must give me every detail of all that happened." “Of course, that's not a problem. I was
