~"I have often dreamed of a far off place
Where a hero's welcome would be waiting for meWhere the crowds would cheer, when they see my faceAnd a voice keeps saying this is where I'm meant to be"~Beneath the spotlight, a man in his military uniform held his daughter's hand and waist.
The proud general Winfield danced with Samantha, slowly moving to another Disney tune of 'I Can Go The Distance.'
As Samantha looked at her father with a smile, resting her hand on his shoulder, she heard Winfield say, "You look so happy, Sam. I've never seen you happier in your life."
Samantha's eyes twinkled. Her smile widened before she admitted, "I am, Dad, but while I am happy, I'd wish you and Mom were okay."
"We are okay," answered Winfield with confidence. He turned to where Sarah was sitting and smiled at her. "She is... at least not avoiding me."
Seconds passed and as the song progressed, Samantha tightened her hold against her f

Chapter 85: Honeymoon
"Mommy, are you going to leave us?" Kenzie asked with pouting lips as they lay on the bed that night. It was the evening of Samantha and Ethan's wedding. They had the kids joined them in their hotel room that evening, especially since they were leaving for two weeks on their honeymoon. Hearing Kenzie's lines, Samantha pouted her lips and answered, "It's only for two weeks, sweetheart." "Yes, Kenzie, and we still have school," reminded Kyle. "We can't miss school." "Your uncle Connor and grandma will be with you the whole time. Plus, you'll be busy with your extra class," told Ethan, who was lying on the other side of the bed. It made Kenzie frown that she said, "But, I want to go on vacation too." "We will go after the school year," promised Ethan. "Where do you want to go?" "Really, Daddy?" Kenzie got up from the mattress with twinkling eyes. "I want to go to the beach!" "Okay, we will go to the beach
Chapter 86: Healthy Husband
Samantha's hot breath reflected against the glass wall of the shower area, right after feeling Ethan's hand cupping her breast. She was faced against the glass as Ethan practically groped her. The couple was still lathered in bath soap, but Ethan's hands were already restless. "Ethan - Aaaah." A soft moan escaped Samantha's lips as soon as Ethan started tracing kisses on her neck. "I thought we are going to do it in bed?" A sly grin became painted on Ethan's face. He reached for her peach and played with it with his finger before saying, "Doesn't mean, we can't start here." Turning his wife to face him, Ethan held Samantha's elegant face and remarked, "You are so beautiful and you are mine." Samantha wound up smiling. She wrapped her arms around his neck and reached for his lips. They started with simple pecks, slowly making loud smacking sounds from inside the shower area of their bathroom. Sticking out
Chapter 87: Treat You Well
Swimming to the edge of their private infinity pool, Samantha gasped, getting up from the surface of the water. She took heavy breaths before leaning at the edge of the pool, appreciating her afternoon view. She smiled, hearing the water stream from the creek, several feet below their villa. Despite nearing a splash behind her, she ignored the warning sign of her approaching husband and rested her chin on her arms. When Ethan came up behind her, immediately embracing her on her waist, she said, "It's so quiet and peaceful here." Samantha received a kiss on the cheek and on the neck, making her chuckle at Ethan's teases. She then heard him say, "Yes, it's a perfect place for a getaway." On their second day of stay at the mountain resort, the couple woke up late and had brunch at eleven in the morning inside their villa. "I booked a massage and spa treatment for you at three. Then we'll have dinner after," Ethan r
Chapter 88: The Massage
"Ouch! Sam!" Ethan complained after getting another smack in the hand. He was constantly reaching for her thighs while Samantha was massaging his arms on the side of the bed. He heard her answer, "Let me finish first, Mr. Wright. Behave yourself!" He sighed in dismay before returning to rest his face down on the spa bed. He suggested, "We can massage each other, together." Samantha just ignored him. She began to put pressure on his neck before making her way to his shoulders, and only then did she hear Ethan moan in satisfaction, "Ahh. That feels good! Yeah, right there, honey." "You need to spoil yourself once in a while, hon," reminded Samantha. A hum escaped Ethan's lips before he shut his eyes, beginning to enjoy the treatment he was receiving from his wife. He said in response, "I'd love to be spoiled by my wife." When it was finally time to put pressure on Ethan's back, Samantha climbed on his behind. Wi
Chapter 89: The Distant Relatives
"Choose whatever you like, Honey. I'm just going to take a call from Dad outside the boutique," Told Ethan while dropping by a Chanel Store in one of Asia's largest hubs. After ten days of romantic stay in Bali, making love every day, the couple decided to fly to another country and experience shopping at its best. Mesmerized by all the selection of bags, Samantha's eyes widened before she answered, "Okay, hon. Don't take too long." Over the past months, it has always been Ethan's shopping agent who chose her clothes and bags. This was her very first time to choose one for herself.... in a very, very long time and a Chanel bag at that! For seconds, she turned to where Ethan stood outside the shop. Ethan found himself in a secluded area on the side of the boutique, taking a call from Daniel Wright, and was looking very concerned. Samantha frowned, recalling how Ethan had been getting serious calls over the past three d
Chapter 90: Injected
"Following the groundbreaking ceremony of The Wright Wonder World Theme Park, a collaboration between the Wrights and the Songs of Asia, stock prices at the Wright Diamond Corporation have risen by ten percent in the last two weeks." A reporter announced while standing behind the trade center of Braeton City. "Clearly, there is no stopping the same corporation from increasing its value in the coming years," added the reporter before the TV screen paused. Everyone in the main conference room of Ethan's company was watching the replayed news on a wide screen with their CEO, standing next to the monitor. Following the end of the news coverage, Ethan switched off the flat-screen TV that was plastered on the wall. He turned to the board members and shareholders from inside the room and said, "People, which business is the best place to be on board right now?" "The Wright Diamond Corporation," Daniel Wright confidently answered, sitting to
Chapter 91: The Secret Enemy
Walking into the hospital, Ethan was clenching his hand into a fist. A police officer walked with him and reported, "Mr. Wright. The other kidnapper is dead. The other is having an operation. We will soon find out of their intentions." "The plates to the black van... Sadly, they are fake," revealed the police. "It would seem as though, the accident, a block away from the hotel, was also part of their plan." Ethan's eyes narrowed, hearing the statement coming from the police. His jaws tightened before asking, "Where is my wife?" "She is being checked right now." Pointing to a guarded room, the police said, "That room at the end of the hallway." Seeing Edgar by the door, Ethan glared at him and said, "I expected much from you, Edgar." "I'm sorry, Mr. Wright." Edgar could only apologize, blaming himself for being late. That night, he had several bumps while driving in the direction of the hotel from the mansion. It was as if, circum
Chapter 92: Her Life Is My Own
Arriving home for dinner that same night, the children met Ethan, rushing outside the dining area. "Daddy, you are here!" Exclaimed the twins at the same time. Despite the glee on their expressions, the gloom on Ethan's face was clear. He forced a smile, greeting the twins. Clearing his throat, he asked, "How was school, Kyle? Kenzie?" "Daddy, school was fine. We miss you," said Kenzie. With a frown, Kyle added, "And Mom too. Daddy? Why is Mom not talking to us? She has not been joining us for dinner." Ethan took a deep breath and looked up at Diana. Like Ethan, Diana had been worried sick for Samantha since the incident at the hotel. No one had the heart to tell the children, so they knew not what their mother was going through. "Kids, Mommy is not feeling well. Please excuse her. Know that she loves you so much," told Ethan. "Let's have dinner together." It took everything from Ethan to pretend
