I pretended as if I didn't know anything."He is Dante Blaze, the new CEO of Blaze Publishing, he is a billionaire, do you want to get me killed?" He said out of fright.But I had no response to give him at that moment only my hysterical laughter."What's so funny, Raymond, Did I make any jokes?"

Dear child, hello to you too, I just wished you had an intelligent father not this foolish being, mhmm, thank you for comforting me during these times," I spoke to my child because I could feel a strong connection with the unborn child without carry him or her in my hands.During my emotional drive, I rubbed my belly continuously as I walked my way to the couch, only for me to hear a knock on the door again.I took a deep exhale at that moment because I thought it was Dante and immediately I thought of how I would use my words o
