CHAPTER 163Jayden's heart skipped a beat as he saw Helena's name flash on his phone screen. He exchanged a glance with Medeia, his mind racing with apprehension. With a deep breath, he answered the call, trying to maintain his composure."Hello, Helena. What can I do for you?" Jayden greeted her, his voice steady despite the fear within him."Jayden, darling, it's been a while since we last spoke. I hope you've been keeping well," Helena's smooth voice flowed through the phone, her tone oozing with charm.Jayden's grip on the phone tightened slightly as he responded, "Yes, I've been managing. What's on your mind, Helena? I know you are always up to something and what with the sweet names?"There was a pause on the other end of the line, and Jayden could almost feel Helena's calculating gaze through the phone. "I couldn't help but notice some interesting developments recently. Have you been in contact with anyone...unexpected?" Helena's words were laced with subtle threats, hinting at
CHAPTER 164She angrily cut off the line and looked at Jayden. " Breath baby. You need to calm yourself down. They are just playing mind games with us." [ Ah! ]Medeia shouted and took her hand between her two legs. " I think I am going into labor. My water just broke." Jayden's eyes widened in shock as Medeia's words sunk in. "Oh my God, Medeia! Are you serious?" He scrambled to his feet, his heart racing with a mix of excitement and panic.Medeia nodded, her face contorted with pain as another contraction gripped her. "Yes, Jayden. I think the baby is coming. We need to get to the hospital, now!"With adrenaline coursing through his veins, Jayden sprang into action, rushing to gather their belongings and help Medeia out of the house. Despite the chaos swirling around them, he remained focused on getting her to the hospital safely.As they raced through the streets, Jayden's mind raced with a whirlwind of emotions. He couldn't believe that the moment they had been waiting for was f
CHAPTER 165 Helena was seated in her room when Robert walked in on her. " I heard Jayden's wife just put to bed. I think we need to go and greet them" " And why would I do that?" She replied painting her fingernails." I don't understand what you mean. Isn't he a family not to talk of he is your blood. Why would you decide to miss out on this important occasion?" Robert asked, looking at her." I don't want to have anything to do with Jayden," Helena replied staring at Robert who was perplexed at what was going on." Really? Does that include leaving him with his rightful place at the Gracehill corporation? I won't be denied that I don't know what you have been up to lately but I have decided to sit back and watch." " What have I been up to? Are you saying that to my face right now? It is not like you care if anything happens to me. I am the rightful owner now and this belongs to me. I am just getting back what is mine from the on-set." " I have told you many times but it seems yo
CHAPTER 166Jayden looked back and he was startled. " What are you doing here? Medeia is inside having a nap." He said gently walking closer to Desmond, Medeia's father. " I know, I just wanted to say hello to you as I heard you were in the garden." He lied looking at Jayden.Jayden took out his phone and made a false call telling the person he would be coming to the company tomorrow. " Who was that? Is that Yohan? Is he also coming to wish the baby well?" Desmond asked again trying to know if Jayden was actually talking to Yohan." Yohan? The last time I saw him was when he came to the company with Helena. I think both of them are together on all of this. I can't believe he would jilt me for my aunt." Jayden sighed " Cheer up Mr Jayden. You have got me. I can even go to any length to help you find him." " I don't remember telling you he was lost. Or is he lost again?" Jayden asked looking Desmond in the face." No! I am sure he is with Mrs Helena. Talking about her, have you seen
CHAPTER 167While the atmosphere grew tense, Jayden stayed calm, his thoughts racing with the complicated lies he had created. He understood that Helena was not gullible, but he acknowledged the influence of manipulation and deceit. Jayden is delicately balanced between truth and fiction as he spoke, dancing on the line with each word to mislead his aunt and safeguard his family.Helena's intense stare drilled into Jayden, seeking out any weaknesses in his exterior. After years of bitter rivalry and family disagreements, she had always been cautious of his intentions. However, hidden behind his composed demeanor, Jayden possessed a strong resolve to outsmart Helena and recover what was rightfully his.Helena expressed skepticism towards Jayden's sudden change of heart, apologizing for her doubtful attitude. "Do you genuinely intend to give up all riches and authority to me, or is this simply another one of your tricks?"Jayden held Helena's gaze firmly, maintaining a steady expression
CHAPTER 168 They all disperse going back to their various homes. Jayden walked into Medeia's room and smiled seeing she was a little tired and weak. " Someone is in a good mood." She said with a smile on her face. " I am honey. I managed to trick my Aunt." Jayden replied sitting on the bed beside her." What did you do?" She asked sitting upright to hear what he had to say. " Let's just say I handed over to her what she had always craved. The throne." Jayden said with a smile " Don't say! Did you give her the right to everything? Did you think about any of this?" Medeia looked at him not understanding his point of view " You need to listen to me. Yohan needs to be safe and once she is assured that I am not a threat anymore. She won't have to see Yohan as a threat anymore." I replied " Really? Do you think that is a good plan? I don't think this risk is worth taking. What if she still decides to go after Yohan, what then?" Medeia asked, looking at Jayden who rubbed his hands over h
CHAPTER 169Desmond felt life fleeing from his face. " I am giving you just two weeks to come clean with what you have done. If not then I would have to help you to expose them to the world. " Hello! Hello!!." He shouted as the line went off. Desmond rubbed his hands over his hair as he thought of another strange caller who knew their secret was still alive. They had come this far to let some unknown stranger tell them what to do. He took his phone and called Helena.Helena's phone rang and she wondered why Desmond was calling her by this time of the night. Robert looked at her wondering who the caller was. Ever since the death of Sir Benjamin, Helena had been a little different and distant from him. He thought about what Jayden said and fixed his gaze on her. Robert looked at her and different thoughts coursed through his mind. " Can she take a life?" he asked himself as he looked at Helena who immediately walked out of the room to answer her call. After some while, she came back
CHAPTER 170 The following morning Robert took his phone and dialed Jayden's number immediately after Helena left the house for work. " Hello Jayden." his voice carrying a bit of worry." I just don't know who my wife is anymore. She is almost like a completely different person. I am sure she is seeing someone other than me but I don't know who the person was." He said looking at the mirror right in front of him." Not someone. It is Desmond Moore. He and her are all in his game. I wondered why she was so obsessed with taking everything from me. I wish you could help me out with this." Jayden's voice sounded worried at the other end of the call." What do you need me to do? Because at this point I am ready to do anything to bring an end to all of this." Robert replied " We can bug her phone and plant a tracker to know what she is up to and who she talks to," Jayden added." Can you do that, Mr Robert?" " That shouldn't be a problem, just give me some time I should be able to do that
