Epilogue

His Replaced Bride

On your high demand, here's an epilogue!

Crystal's pov

- Five years later -

It has been five years of mine and Dante's marriage now. God knows how time flies so fast.

Just five years ago, we were strangers, unaware of each other's existence but today we are happily married and who can't stay away from each other for even a day now.

I still remember the day my granny died, I felt so lonely. I thought that I would never have anyone in my life now but I was wrong.

I kept cursing god but god being the kind one gave me such a beautiful and loving family who never made me feel unwanted. God gave me so many reasons to smile and so many people to call family. Be it my husband Dante, my mom and dad, Sarah, Ashton and their daughter Chloe or be it Xavier, my son.

Yes, apart from being Dante's wife, now I'm the mother of his and my son Xavier as well.

Xavier is my cute one year old kid who is getting naughty day by day. He is my world, my everything and he looks exactly like his father.

I love him more than anyone in this world. He is my favorite person in this whole world. Every time I see him, I feel so happy and proud that he is my son.

I remember the day I got to know that I'm pregnant again, I cried and cried in happiness. Everyone was so worried seeing me crying but when I told them the good news they all cried too.

During my pregnancy everyone took great care of me, especially Dante. We celebrated my pregnancy almost everyday and he fulfilled all my stupid cravings without any complaints.

And to my disbelief this man loved me even more when I threw stupid tantrums at him due to my mood swings.

Not just that but Dante even arranged comfortable dates at home when I was heavily pregnant. He fulfilled my all legit and illegitimate wishes without complaints.

And that's how nine months passed away and we got to meet our little Prince, Xavier.

So now our life is finally complete. We are happy and living our best life. My all complaints regarding life have now disappeared and now I only thank god for giving me this happy family.

My chain of thoughts came to an end when I heard my little monster's cries.

I instantly stood up from the bed and walked near his cradle where he was kicking his tiny legs in the air with a little bit of tears in his beautiful blue eyes.

"Aww.. My baby is up" I said in a playful voice and lifted him up in my arms to which he stopped crying.

"Aww.. My baby" I cooed twirling a little to which he let out a small smile and touched my chest.

"So my baby is hungry?" I asked in a childish tone to which he started to babble.

Cute.

I smiled brightly at him and settled myself in bed with him on my lap and started breastfeeding him.

In the meantime Xavier grabbed my locket in his little fist. I kissed his forehead and caressed his head softly.

My baby.

Once he was done I covered myself properly and wiped his mouth and then changed his clothes.

"Let's go out. Dadda must be on his way, right?" I asked at which his eyes turned happy and he started to giggle loudly.

"Da.... Da... Da.." He uttered Dad with so much excitement.

Of course.

This little devil always troubles me but when it comes to his Dad, he becomes all cute and shy. Little monster.

"Yeah yeah, Dad" I said mockingly and left my room.

Hey, I forgot to mention that now we live downstairs.

When I was pregnant with Xavier, Dante and I, decided to shift downstairs because I didn't wanted anything to happen to him because of my clumsiness. I had already lost my first baby, I didn't wanted to lose him too that's why we shifted downstairs and we are still living there.

I came out of mansion with Xavier and walked towards Sarah who was already playing with Chloe in front yard.

"Hey" I called out with a smile to which Sarah waved at me whereas Chloe ran towards me.

"Baby.. Baby" Chloe yelled in happiness when she saw Xavier awake in my arms.

"Hey little princess" I said with a chuckle and sat myself on the mattress beside Sarah.

"Babbyyyy" Chloe yelled happily and caressed his cheeks with her soft little palms to which Xavier giggled.

We both smiled looking at them. These two are really attached with each other even though Chloe is three years older to him.

"Hey Xavi baby, you wanna play with me?" Chloe asked after giving Xavier her favorite stuff toy to which Xavier grabbed her toy in his fist.

"Aww he meant yes. He wants to play with his big sissy" Chloe yelled in excitement and gave us all a big proud smile.

Sarah laughed at her daughter's antics and pulled her in a hug.

"Of course baby, Xavier wants to play with his beautiful big sissy" Sarah said kissing her cheek to which Chloe let out a big laugh.

Later she started to play with Xavier whereas Sarah and I, engaged ourselves with our gossips.

"I have heard that Mr Smith's daughter is taking a little too much interest in your husband, hm?" Sarah asked me to which I rolled my eyes at her.

"Yeah. She thinks that she has a chance with Dante. Stupid girl" I said angrily.

"Yesterday when I went to the office, she started to flirt with Dante right in front of me" I said shaking my head.

"What? Really?" Sarah asked in shock to which I nodded.

"Then?" She asked again.

"Then before I could have a blast at her for flirting with Dante, Dante himself gave her a lecture on being professional" I said with a chuckle.

"Of course! Dante Arrogant Knight won't entertain any disturbance in his work" Sarah said laughing to which I nodded.

"Yeah! Smith's daughter was about to cry after Dante's warning. Even Mr Smith was scared" I said with a chuckle.

Soon Dante and Ashton came, followed by their bodyguards. Chloe happily ran to her father whereas my little Xavier started to make noises and crawl towards Dante.

"Da... Da.. Da... Daaa" Xavier babbled happily when Dante lifted him up in his arms.

"How's my little man doing?" Dante asked nuzzling his nose with Xavier to which Xavier giggled loudly.

"Daa.. Da" Xavier chirped and kept his palm softly on Dante's face.

Dante smiled at him and came to sit beside me with Xavier in his arms.

I tried to take Xavier from him but Xavier started to cry to which I made my face.

"Why do you always do that when you know that he won't leave his dad?" Dante asked arrogantly to which I glared at him.

"Because your son is a traitor. I kept him inside me for nine months and gave him birth. I always feed him, clean his mess and entertain him but he always chooses you over me" I complain with a sad face to which Dante chuckled.

"Awe, my jealous wifey" Dante said pinching my cheeks to which I glared at him hard.

"Don't worry, silly. We both love you" Dante said with a grin and looked at Xavier.

"Isn't it Baby?" Dante said tickling Xavier to which Xavier laughed loudly.

I smiled looking at my cuties and hugged them softly.

"I love you two, too" I said with a pout to which Dante chuckled and hugged me back.

We were enjoying our moment when we heard a click sound. We looked at our front to see that Sarah has clicked our picture on her phone.

"Aww you guys are so cute" Sarah said and showed us the picture to which I gasped in surprise.

"Oh my... You have taken such a beautiful picture of us, Sarah. Please send this to me, now" I said to which she grinned.

"Sure" Sarah said taking her phone back.

Soon I got the picture from her. I thanked her and kept that picture on my wallpaper and showed that to Dante to which he did a thumbs up sign.

"I think we should go inside. The whether is getting cold" Ashton said to which we all nodded and made our way inside the mansion.

Once inside the mansion, Dante gave Xavier to me and went to get freshen up.

"Let's go and watch cartoon with your sissy, okay" I said in a baby voice and went to sit beside Chloe who was watching Cocomelon.

In the middle of the cartoon Xavier slept and Chloe went to her mom, Sarah.

I shrugged my shoulders and decided to change the channel. I kept changing the channel when something caught my eyes.

Maddison Kingsley.

I breathed heavily and saw the news which was talking about Maddison as today is her birthday. They were talking about how Maddison was at the peak of her career when she and Dante were *cough* dating and how her life got ruined when Dante refused to marry her. And how she is now living her days in prison.

I closed the television and breathed heavily thinking about her. I hate her and her entire family.

Talking about her, when dad hired detectives then they got to know that her entire family knew about Ethan and Martin's plan. In fact they were all exchanging informations through phone when I was kidnapped.

All of them knew that I was pregnant and still they kidnapped me because they wanted to get rid of me and baby.

Shameless creatures.

So yeah, now all of them are behind the bars and they'll always be there for the rest of their lives.

And about Martin, he is dead now. Yeah! He committed sucide two years ago for some unknown reasons.

Although I'm happy that he is dead now but somewhere I still wanted him to be alive and live the rest of his life in prison, alone.

But then again it's not in my hand. It was his decision. Though I know one thing that he must be roting somewhere in hell with Ethan.

"Hey wifey" Suddenly I heard Dante's voice and turned towards him with a smile.

"He slept?" He asked with a pout to which I chuckled.

"Yeah" I said and gave Xavier to him. He smiled at me and pecked my lips.

I smiled at him and made my way to the kitchen when mom and dad came.

"Mom-Dad" I went towards them and hugged them one by one.

"How was your trip?" I asked breaking the hug.

"It was good. We enjoyed a lot" Mom said happily.

"Welcome back mom and dad" Dante said with a smile to which they smiled at him.

"Aww my little baby is sleeping" Mom chirped happily and took the sleeping Xavier in her arms and kissed his forehead.

"Grandpa. Grandma" We heard an excited voice of Chloe who came with her parents and hugged both of them.

"How is my little princess doing?" Dad asked taking Chloe in his arms to which she smiled brightly.

"I'm doing good, grandpa. Have you got toys for me?" She asked innocently to which we all laughed at her.

"Of course. Come on I'll show you" With this we all went to the living room where dad started to unpack his new luggage which was filled with toys.

"Wow" Chloe yelled in happiness when she saw a mickey mouse toy car.

In the meantime, Xavier woke up who was in mom's arms. Mom smiled at him and gave him a new stuff toy which he instantly started to chew. We all laughed at the kids innocent antics.

And just like that another beautiful day of my life passed in happiness.

God, please always keep all of us happy and healthy. I prayed in my mind and looked at my family who are all happy and content with life.
