Chapter: Chapter sixty-fourDai's POVHolding Lia against her will made me feel terrible, seeing her cry in the elevator broke my heart so much. I had to let her go tonight not because I am giving up but I need to think about my plan to win her back. Last night was crazy, I felt dejected and abandoned. I promised not to drink when I decided to come to the US to find Lia, but I broke that promise and got wasted last night in my room. Wallowing in self-pity and thinking about the woman I lost.I can't remember what happened after drinking so much. My head hurts as I try to open my eyes, the curtains are open though I think I remember shutting them last night. My brain works over time and I sit up supporting my body with the headboard of the bed."Sleeping beauty finally decides to wake up" that....that voice sounds awfully familiar, my eyes get acquainted to the light in the room. "Liam? how?....." of course he got the keys to my room since he's the one who booked for it."I'm glad you figured everything so, I wo

Chapter: Chapter sixty-threeDahlia's POVI became mute and froze at the spot I was standing at looking into the eyes of my baby's father, for the first time in a few months, he didn't look like his powerful self. The Dai Japana I knew who was he'll bent on making my life a living hell looked tired and stressed. Sara felt Hana was keeping a secret when she arrived New York, we had to force it out of her.She told us how Dai had been stalking Sara's home back in Tokyo and how he had been bugging her to help him win me back. I didn't believe my ears when she told us everything. So, I had just thought he won't be serious about finding me though I had to take on precautionary measures like, letting go of social media and just focusing on my Job at Rising Tech.Standing here staring at the man who made me cry for many weeks, battling depression and pregnancy hormones. "Lia!" his voice comes out like a whisper which brings me back to the reality of things, I turn around and bolt out the closes exit out of this place. S

Chapter: Chapter sixty-oneDahlia's POVMy job at Rising Tech has been great and working with Mr. Liam is a breathe of fresh air, he's truly gifted in game programming and gaming softwares. It's amazing how much I can put together what I learned at school to create a game that millions of persons can play.Almost everyone at the company knows I'm pregnant and it's a relief they don't treat me differently, they're friendly especially the ladies at the reception. They're always excited to see me when I enter the building every morning, they'll ask questions like 'how are you and the baby?' 'is the baby alright?' 'is it a girl or a boy?'. Hana and Sara will laugh out their hearts when I tell them, I'm just 2months gone and I'll rather get my baby's gender reveal at birth. Maybe I might change my mind along this journey. The company is throwing a party next week to announce the transfer of the main branch from California to New York and I hear they've invited important persons in the Tech industry. I am super exc

Chapter: Chapter sixtyDai's POVI would be lying if I say I am okay, I haven't slept well for weeks nor gotten proper food in my belly. I tried reaching out to Hana but realized she hasn't been around and her manager refuses to let me know about her location. I was hoping to plead my way through to getting Lia's whereabouts from Hana.Hana's number is out of reach too and Abe has been too busy to pick my calls. I'll stop by his club tonight to know about his girlfriend's whereabouts and how I can get the woman I Love back. Abe told me he likes Hana alot and asked her to be his girlfriend, which she said yes.I'm tempted everyday to trace her location through her phone that's if she still uses the same phone, but I stop myself. My brothers have been over at my pent house on the excuse that, our parents were worried about me since I haven't visited them in a longtime. They say I look like a shadow of myself, it's true but I'm nothing without Lia. For the short time we were fine, she made me happy. I felt som

Chapter: Chapter Fifty-nineDahlia's POVMr. Liam is the opposite of Dai, he's funny and easy to talk to. there was always some tension between Dai and myself even before we got romantically involved. My first day was good, met a few persons from HR and the coding team. They have mostly programmers who work strictly on games.They integrate ideas from individuals with an excellent gaming vision by creating desktop games and mobile games. He mentioned earlier about their mobile applications department having a tough time developing gaming apps due to the different interface of their desktop games and mobile games.All I did today was review their past works and get an inside into Mr. Liam's work pattern. leaving my cozy office by 5:30pm, with food on my mind. Since I found out I am pregnant, I eat like a starved cow. It's a miracle I had just lunch today, maybe because I was nervous all day.I kept talking to my flat belly all day, when I was alone in my office. "Good evening Sir", I greet Mr. Liam who's waiting
