Twist of Time Fated Union

"My beautiful daughter, you're finally here. Tell me, what would you like to eat? How was your day, buttercup? And why are your hands so cold?" Krystle asked with concern.

"Mom, why is Melissa saying that my brothers are my half-siblings and that Dad is your second husband? She called me the daughter of a criminal in front of everyone, and they were all giving me strange looks and gossiping. I told them off for judging without knowing anything. I know you couldn't possibly be involved in whatever nonsense she's saying. She's just seeking attention and trying to make me look bad. They need to think for themselves and see the truth before jumping to conclusions."

"I want to know everything about your life. I don't want to live in the dark and let people gossip. I will protect and love you all, no matter what the truth may be. You are my family, and you shouldn't hide it from me."

"Stop crying, Celine. I understand your confusion and frustration. Melissa's words may have caused you distress, but you are genuinely cherished and appreciated by those around you. Don't allow the judgments of others to affect you. Mom isn't a murderer. It's important to address these concerns and clear any misunderstandings that may have arisen."

"Let me share with you the story of my life and how I met your father. I'll shed light on the events of my past. In our family, trust and honesty are essential values that form a solid foundation and are vital in all relationships. I want you to be at ease knowing the truth. Together, we can overcome any challenges that may arise."

"Twenty-one years ago, Krystle Wilson, the most elegant and beautiful woman, lived her life like a princess. She was the apple of her parents' eyes, and they made sure to fulfill her every wish. I got married to my love, Eric Vladimir, the wealthiest and most handsome man in the city. We loved each other unconditionally, and life was going well. I was twenty when we got married; it lasted for six years."

"We had two sons, Ryan, who was three years old, and Leo, who was two years old. Both were adorable kids with grayish-black eyes and fair skin."

Krystle smiled and said, "Honey, Mom has planned a banquet tomorrow. Do you know what tomorrow is?" Eric kissed her forehead and cheeks. He said, "Tomorrow marks a significant milestone in our relationship as our love deepens and grows stronger." Krystle hugged him happily and said, "Our wedding anniversary is tomorrow, and I know you always remember this special day. You belong to me, and my heart will always belong to you. Remember, you can never leave me in this lifetime. If you ever consider leaving me, breaking my heart, or having another girl in your life, I will leave you forever and never return. I will take our kids and leave you alone as your punishment. Even if you call me a thousand times, I won't spare you a glance or feel any pity because you lost me by failing to appreciate what you had," she said to him with a raised voice.

He was stunned and about to say something when Krystle said, "I'll go and see whether our kids are asleep. They like bedtime stories every night." Eric embraced her and said, "Babe, you don't have to worry about the kids. I told them stories, and both are asleep."

He embraced her tightly and whispered, "My sweetheart, love of my life, please don't talk about leaving and such ominous words. My love for you knows no bounds. I promise to always keep you by my side. I'll hold you so tight and never let you escape from my embrace."

They swayed together moving in perfect harmony, lost in the rhythm of the music and the warmth of each other's embrace. Every glance, every touch was magnetic, pulling them closer as if nothing else in the world existed. Their smiles spoke in whispers, a silent exchange of longing and desire.

As the final note faded into the air, Eric's gaze held hers, deep and unwavering, his eyes brimming with love-and something more. Anticipation. A quiet, desperate plea. Her breath caught, her pulse raced both lost in eachother eyes. A flicker of hesitation stirred within her, an instinct to run-not from fear, but from the overwhelming depth of what she felt.

But she couldn't. She wouldn't. Because she is in love. And she wanted him just as much as he wanted her as they kissed eachother passionately.

"It's time for us to have a wonderful night." In the morning, Eric woke up to the sound of his alarm clock. He gazed at the peaceful face of his wife sleeping beside him and couldn't resist planting a gentle kiss on her forehead. He lovingly ran his fingers through her hair and whispered, "My wife is truly a sleeping beauty." Krystle, with a smile on her face, replied, "Thank you, honey," without even opening her eyes. She playfully added, "If I'm your sleeping beauty, then you'll have to wake me up with a kiss and tell me how much you love me before I open my eyes." Eric chuckled and said, "You're so clever, my dear. I'll gladly tell you every day how much I love you. I'll always be your knight in shining armor, by your side whenever you need me. I'll protect and cherish you and our children until my last breath. Your happiness means everything to me, and I promise to never leave you in any situation." He sealed his words with a tender kiss on her lips. "Wake up, my love, and know that my feelings for you are genuine. I'll stand by my promises till the end." Moved by his heartfelt words, Krystle opened her eyes, tears glistening. "I'll love you always, Eric, until my last breath," she whispered. "I can't shake this feeling that my life is about to change. I'm living in a dream. When I wake up, everything will be different."

"Today, on our special day, I should be the happiest woman alive, but something feels off." Eric reassured her, "Don't dwell on negative thoughts. Today is our anniversary, and it's a day to celebrate. Let's just enjoy the moment." He scooped her up in his arms and led her to the bathroom, turning on the shower. After a refreshing bath, they both got dressed for the day. Krystle then went to the kids' room, helping them get ready and announcing that she had prepared their favorite dishes. Excitedly, Ryan and Leo took her hands and rushed to the dining table. During dinner, Krystle proudly served her homemade nutritious meal to her in-laws, saying, "Mom, Dad, please try this. It's healthy and delicious, specially made by me."

Lilac, her mother-in-law, expressed delight over her cooking, saying she was amazing. She added, "Whatever Krystle makes, it's always a hit. You don't need to stress over it; we've got plenty of helpers around. Just chill and enjoy the perks, like Illeana does."

- Dear readers,

Please enjoy the story patiently, and feel free to share your opinions. I hope you all like it.

Krystle chimed in, saying she loved cooking for everyone, feeling it was a way to show her love. She believed that even the little things she did for her family brought her joy.

Lilac grinned and complimented her, saying she was truly thoughtful She felt lucky to have her as her daughter-in-law, believing her presence would only bring happiness to the household. She had brought two wonderful kids into the family, making their lives joyful.

Edward her Father in-law, nodded in agreement with Lilac. He acknowledged her talent but also saw her as more than just a daughter-in-law; she was like their own daughter, treated her like family.

As Eric listened to his parents' praises for Krystle, he couldn't stop smiling, falling for her more deeply every day. She was kind, caring, and everything he had ever wished for. Time and again, he told her she didn't need to do anything-just enjoy life with him and spend his money however she pleased. But she never would.

She was incredibly well-organized, always guiding him toward the best in life and handling everything with grace. He deeply admired her, along with the delicious meal she had prepared.. A sense of pride filled him-he was truly a lucky husband. She radiated beauty, glowing as if surrounded by a halo, looking every bit like an angel.

Edward raised his glass to Eric and Krystle for anniversary, wishing them a lifetime of love and happiness together.

They had invited the prestigious families and friends, reminding everyone to be there by 8 PM for the banquet.

Both Eric and Krystle nodded, excited about the feast. Ryan and Leo, the kids, couldn't stop raving about how delicious everything was,mom you're really a good cook.

They asked if they could go to the amusement park they happily agreed.

Dad smiled and said, go and have fun." encouraged Eric to take a break from work and spend time with everyone.

Krystle said Let's go with the kids, as you've promised.

Edward reminded Eric to bring along bodyguards, as a precaution. He then looked at Ryan and Leo, saying, "Enjoy your time. Whatever Ryan and Leo say, you should buy it. Just remember not to overindulge them in candies. They're quite naughty, but that's alright. Listen to your parents hold hands, and stay close. Don't wander off."

After saying their goodbyes, they arrived at the amusement park. The kids were bursting with excitement, eager to try out every single ride. Ryan, in his childlike voice, exclaimed to his mommy, "I want to go on that ride and that one too! I really want to ride the roller coaster!" Krystle smiled and gently patted his head, explaining that he was too young for the adult rides. She suggested they try something suitable for both Ryan and Leo, like the cute elephant ride. As they settled in, Krystle sat with Leo while Eric took a seat with Ryan. The ride began, moving at a moderate pace, going up and down. Krystle's hair floated in the air as Leo excitedly pointed out his dad waving at them. They all waved back with big smiles and laughter. As the ride came to an end, Krystle lifted Leo and Eric held her hand tightly with Ryan in his arms, determined to make sure the kids tried every ride. They had a blast on the fairground rides, water slides, and more. When they finally got tired, they decided to take a ride on the Ferris wheel. Both Leo and Ryan fell asleep as they reached the top, where they were greeted with a breathtaking view of the scenery, the beautiful sky, and the fresh air.

Eric leaned into Krystle and planted a sudden kiss on her lips, leaving them both breathless. He then whispered about a saying that when a couple kisses at the top, they will be together forever till eternity, with no one able to separate them. Krystle giggled and gently placed her hand on his cheek, admitting that she found the saying cheesy but felt good hearing it from him. She expressed her desire for their love to remain strong in all situations, whether they were on a Ferris wheel or not. Eric beamed with happiness, promising to stay by her side until death did them part. He playfully mentioned having two girls in his heart, causing Krystle to grumpily ask who the other girl was. Eric quickly reassured her that she was the only one he loved, and the other girl would be their future daughter who will just look like you. Krystle laughed, pointing out that they didn't have a daughter yet. Eric grinned, expressing his hope for two daughters in the future, eager to shower them with love and protection alongside their adorable sons. He believed daughters were cute and a true blessing and he vowed to cherish and safeguard them always.

Krystle blushed and exclaimed with a bright smile, "I would love to have a daughter! It will bring so much joy and liveliness to our family. Just thinking about it makes me feel so happy and content."

Ryan and Leo were wide awake when they overheard the conversation. "Mommy, daddy, I want a sister too," Ryan chimed in.

Leo added, "I want a little sister so I can be her big brother. Mommy, I can't wait for our sister to arrive!"

Krystle was taken aback and unsure of how to respond. Eric reassured her, "Don't worry, you'll have a sister in about a year."

Krystle blushed even more at the thought and playfully nudged Eric on the shoulder.

They got home around five and rested for half an hour. Krystle and Eric exchanged gifts - Eric gave her a beautiful designer maroon gown with a diamond necklace, and Krystle gave him a black shirt, pants, and a blazer with cufflinks, which they planned to wear to the party.

As they started getting ready, Eric couldn't take his eyes off Krystle, mesmerized by her beauty. Krystle, with her dark blue eyes and maroon gown, looked drop dead gorgeous, outshining her beauty and perfect figure. When Krystle asked if she looked good in her outfit, Eric replied with a smile, saying she looked the most beautiful and that no one could be as beautiful as his princess. Krystle laughed and said she was worried that other girls would drool over him at the party he was looking so good looking she wished she could keep him all to herself. Eric laughed and said he wished the same for her, suggesting they skip the party and just enjoy each other's company in bed, falling asleep in each other's arms.

Krystle chuckled and exclaimed, "Everyone's waiting for us! We're the showstoppers, after all. Let's go check on our kids before we head out." They intertwined their fingers and made their way to the kids' room, where the little ones looked adorable in their black suit jackets.

Krystle expressed her gratitude to Aunt Marie, the maid, for dressing the kids so impeccably. She then informed Aunt Marie that they would be taking Ryan and Leo with them, while she and her husband could arrive at the party separately in another car,you guys dress up nicely. Aunt Marie's husband worked as a driver in their family and the couple had been serving the Vladimir family for eight years.

Upon reaching the venue, Krystle lifted leo while Eric placed his hand on her waist and carried Ryan with his other arm. The reporters snapped photos and wished them a happy anniversary as they walked down the red carpet and entered the beautifully decorated hall, filled with mesmerizing decorations, lighting, and luxurious interior design.

All eyes turned towards them, marveling at their beauty and commenting on how perfect they looked together, like a match made in heaven. The couple, accompanied by their two adorable, cute babies, captured everyone's hearts.

The party was filled with distinguished guests, who wasted no time in showering the couple with blessings, gifts, and engaging in conversations with them.

Krystle's parents made a grand entrance looking stunning in their designer outfits rushing forward to embrace Krystle and her children, offering their heartfelt blessings to the whole family.

Krystle was enjoying herself when she suddenly felt a piercing gaze on her. As she turned, she locked eyes with Lily, who initially glared at her with pure animosity before quickly masking it with a friendly smile. It left Krystle feeling bewildered, as if it's an illusion. Lily then came over, exchanged pleasantries with Eric and Krystle, and then excused herself, explaining that she didn't want to intrude on their time together as they seemed preoccupied. She then headed off to join the rest of the group for drinks and conversation.

The moment the music began to play, the crowd erupted into dance, and Eric smoothly extended his hand in front of Krystle, asking her to join him on the dance floor. Krystle's face lit up with joy as she placed her hand in his, and together they moved gracefully and in perfect harmony. All eyes turned towards them, captivated by the sight of the pair dancing so elegantly and beautifully that no one could look away.

Illeana noticed Lily giving Krystle a cold stare, so she decided to approach Lily. Illeana and Lily used to be close friends, and Lily was Eric's childhood friend who used to play with them. Lily and Eric were classmates, but everyone knew that Lily had a crush on Eric was obsessed with him.

Eric never saw her as anything more than a friend. His heart had always been devoted to Krystle, ever since she arrived in the city her family moved here. She was new to the area, excelled in her studies, and was stunningly beautiful. Krystle quickly became the center of attention, receiving compliments from everyone in college. Eric was always there for her, protecting her and impressing her with his talents and intelligence. They eventually became best friends, and Eric always treated her with kindness. After some time, he finally confessed his love for her. It took her a year to accept, they eventually got married.

"Eric wanted to marry Krystle and feared that their relationship might break for any reason. He was scared of being away from Krystle. When he fell in love, he dreamed of fulfilling their dreams together by getting married and staying united. These were Eric's thoughts."

Lily was stuck in the past, but Illeana intervened, urging her to let go and find happiness beyond Eric. Illeana reminded Lily that she deserved someone who cherished her and that Krystle and Eric are already married and love eachother, don't be homewrecker.

They're happy together with their beautiful children if you can't think about them then think about their children.His heart only beat for Krystle, the moment she entered his life, and over time, his love for her deepened.

Illeana encouraged Lily to focus on her own life and let go of any resentment, assuring her that true love would come once she moved on from Eric.

But Lily refused to let go of her attachment to Eric, pleading with Illeana, saying, "I love Eric so much, I can't live without him. He is everything to me, my life revolves around him. I've tried to forget him, but I can't. I can't sleep peacefully, and my heart aches seeing him with Krystle. I'll never be able to love anyone else."

Lily was in distress, consumed by jealousy and desperation. She pleaded with Illeana to help her sabotage Krystle's relationship with Eric asking her to mix drugs in her drink she has arranged everything if she cheats him. Eric would leave and stop loving her, offering to facilitate Illeana's marriage to her brother Alexander in return.

Illeana was taken aback by Lily's sinister request, questioning the morality of such a deceitful act. She had no idea that Lily was hiding such a dark and evil side behind her facade of kindness and delicate innocent face,being close to her sent shivers down her spine.

Lily's fixation on Eric was clouding her judgment, blinding her to the fact that he was already happily married to Krystle, a woman her family adored. Illeana urged Lily to let go of her obsession and find happiness elsewhere, warning her against destroying someone else's love and marriage for her own selfish desires

If you genuinely care for him, find joy in his happiness and let go of your feelings; holding on will only bring chaos in life.

Lily was not in the mood to listen, so Illeana sighed and walked away. She messaged Krystle to be cautious around Lily and to carefully check whatever she ate, expressing her fear that Lily might mix something in the food due to her obsession with Eric. Illeana warned Krystle not to drink anything.

Krystle saw the message and thanked Illeana, while lost in her thoughts. Eric called her name twice,pulled her closer asking if she was feeling unwell and suggesting they go home if she was.

Lily noticed Krystle's cautious demeanor and realized that her plan was in jeopardy. With Eric and her children by her side, surrounded by meticulous and loyal staff, she knew she had to act fast. As the party would be over soon, frustration set in as Lily's original plan seemed to crumble.

However, a spark of inspiration struck when she saw Eric's father and Illeana heading to the terrace. Seizing the opportunity, she approached someone who had a crush on her and took him to the room convinced him to take care of things when she returned he has to go out from here as fast as possible and burn this clothes faraway she changed her clothes into black hoodie,face mask sleek black pants,black shoes, Lily orchestrated a plan to deceive everyone, ensuring her secret conversation with Krystle would remain hidden.

She sent Krystle an anonymous message, telling her that her father-in-law Edward was not feeling well and asking her to come to the terrace.
