Arranged Marriage: Dangerous Heiress

Chapter 873 - Strategy Part 1

Eight Months Later,

 Marga felt lighter than before. She knew well that she needed time to heal. But every day, the bodyguard that his son hired cooked breakfast for her and served her well. She fell in love with him though she knew that a man like him, a decent one, wouldn't fall in love with her. The man has no wife or kids. He stayed single and he told her that it's because of his job. Now that he retired and only serves back-up, he thought that he'll be happy but he grew sad doing the same thing every morning. This time, the man is working for her and they had a nice life and they get to know each other. 

 What her doctor told her about forgiveness and acceptance for herself helped her a lot. She started forgiving herself and thought about all of the bad things she did. Sabrina was right after all. She's not her mother and her mother did so many bad things to Sabrina's mother just to get money and revenge. She did bad things to Sabrina to think about getting Gabriel. Scheming and other bad things didn't help her to be who she is. Now, this holy man is also helping her with her traumas and grudges. 

 Now, it's time to call for Xavier. After a few rings, Xavier answered. 

"Hey, son. It's been a while." 

"Hey, mom… I heard lots of things happened huh? Business is doing great and you are happy?"

"Hmm, yeah. Xavier, I want you to be happy too. I'm sure that you couldn't hold yourself anymore to go after Athena. If you love her, just go to her." 

"Really?" 

"Yes," 

"I want to marry her." 

"Go for it. But I can't face Sabrina and her family." She sighed. "I had so many debts to them." 

"It's alright, mom. Just continue with your therapy." 

"Okay, I will," Marga said goodbye to him. She faced Vincent who smiled at her. 

"I'm happy for you, Lady Marga." 

"I told you, don't call me that." She approached him and hugged him. She sighed and it's been a while since she felt that warmth. The man hugged her back. Slowly, she's falling deeply in love with her. "I'm sorry, Vincent. I know that I can't fall in love with you… and," She gently pushed him away. "And you can't possibly be someone who is a mess?" 

"I don't mind." Vincent scooped her face. "I heard your stories and you regret it and you are willing to change. I know that falling in love shouldn't be part of it, but I will always be your friend." 

"Friend?" 

"It's been more than husband and wife…" he smiled. "But if you want, we can be that. But we should make sure that friendship is always there." 

 Marga didn't want to restrain anymore.

 Zendaya raised the glasses. Finally, next year will be her turn to get married. So, she can get pregnant with Timothy's children. She's happy for Xavier and Athena. Finally, her mother let him go. They are drinking in the club and dancing with others. Noah and Bea are making out in front of them but they stopped when Zendaya spoke. 

"Okay, so what's the next step?" Zendaya asked. "How about wedding planning?" 

"Pfft! Rhys will get married first!" Bea exclaimed and Rhys raised his hand. His fiancee is just next to him and drinking a smoothie. Camila already gave birth five months ago and they let Rhys's dad take care of their baby together with Rhys's grandparents. Christina also gave birth the same month as Camila. Then, three months ago, Charlotte gave birth to triplets and they are currently in America. Freya was in Manhattan at the moment to help Charlotte. Demi gave birth five months ago too and it floods babies. So, Demi and Christian came late and they drank a little and danced a little and they left to take care of their baby. 

"Well, I need to faced Athena's parents first this Christmas…" Xavier smiled. "I don't want to miss a thing again." 

"Wow, nice!" Timothy thumbs up. 

 Everyone had fun and Zendaya has so much more fun than anyone with Timothy. Soon, they will be married and soon, they will have their kids and she might not be able to play like this. After the party, they drove back to their Penthouse. Timothy didn't drink and he kept sober for her. Zendaya held his hand as he drove to their place. 

"Thank you, Timmy." 

"For what?" He asked suddenly. 

"For loving me… for being my stripper… I love you, so much." 

 Timothy chuckled. 

"Baby, I love with all of my heart and soul and my man down there loves you more." 

 Zendaya laughed so loud as Timothy focused on driving. 

"Tim," 

"Hmm?" 

"You won't get tired of me, right?" 

"No." He answered. "I love you, Zen-Zen. And we are going to make a lot of babies too. That would please your dad and mom since everyone will soon leave the house and leave them…" 

"Yeah, probably. Dad loves kids."

 Freya looked at the little ones who are now sleeping. It's hard to put them to sleep but she and Charlotte just did. Raiden was busy with work and she suggested he just take the kids back to the Philippines so she could watch over them together with Rhys's baby. 

"Mom, relax… I'll make dinner," Charlotte whispered to her. Freya nodded as Charlotte left. 

 Her phone vibrated and she became careful as she left the room and stayed outside the door. She answered the call and cleared her throat. 

"Hello?" 

"Lady Phoenix, mission complete," Andel said from the other line. 

"Good, set up a plane. We are leaving Manhattan." 

"Great. How are the triplets…" 

"They are beautiful," Freya told. 

"I'll be the Godfather of those triplets."

"But you are already their grandpa." She creased her brows. 

"Oh, shit! Am I that old?" Andel asked. "Wait, let me look in the mirror." 

 Freya rolled her eyes. 

"Oh, who is that handsome one!" Andel said from the other line. Freya imagined Andel in front of the mirror. 

"You are old, Andel. Just accept that."

"I'm not!" Andel exclaimed. 

"Just go and ridicule yourself, Andel. I have to watch over the triplets." 

"Okay, bye!" 

 She hung up and went back inside. She sat on the sofa and relaxed. Finally, after all of the triple cries, she felt like she got back to the past where she used to take care of the twins. Charlotte is a great mother and she even forgets how to take care of herself. She was taking care of four now. The triplets and Raiden. Freya saw the love from Charlotte and that she had to also take care of Raiden and even forget about her passion for painting. But Charlotte loves the babies. The firstborn is a boy that they named Flynn, next are girls, Franciszka and Fawn. 

 She checked around their room and made sure that the cameras were working. Then, she went to the kitchen to help Charlotte. 

"You know that you can just order food outside." 

"I want to cook a nice dinner for us." 

"Hmm, but you can always buy in the family restaurant. Mostly when you are alone. Raiden will be very worried." 

"I will." She smiled. 

"By the way, I'll take care of the triplets, and you will get their clothes. We are leaving next week. You and the triplets aren't safe in the city." 

"Okay, mom." Charlotte is always as cheerful as always. 

 After setting up the dinner, Raiden arrived home and kissed both of them. Charlotte helped him remove his coat and took his briefcase. 

"Wash your hands, the dinner is ready." She said and brought it to his study. 

 Freya sighed and looked at Raiden. 

"I made a decision quickly, help Dominic in the company first. I'll make sure that the triplets are safe." Freya said. 

"Okay, I can't oppose anything from you when it's our safety." He pulled a chair for Freya. Charlotte came back, and Raiden pulled a chair for her. 

"So, since the two of you choose to withdraw the charges to your sister and her boyfriend, I think that I'll give them a little gift," Freya said. 

 Charlotte told Raiden to withdraw the charges and threatened them only. They also threatened Charlotte's family for their safety and the triplets. Freya wouldn't let anyone touch her children and now, the little ones. She didn't want to make decisions for her children because they are old enough to decide. But this time, their safety is at risk because of the Eagle Empire. Slowly, they are taking over the Eagle Empire through Christian's real father. 

 At night, Freya put the little ones back to sleep in the master bedroom, then she went to her room and logged in to her account for their meeting. She checked on the movement, and it seemed like the man was indeed truthful to his words. In her life, she wanted the Eagle Empire to vanish, and they succeeded. But there's Christian, that could be the last blood of Lebedov. At first, she didn't like it, but Christian showed loyalty to them. She agreed with her brother to spare him.
