Chapter 102 ~ Valerie's POV========A few months later, I was living in the Blaze's house with so much happiness and worry-free thoughts in me.Dante and I were finally doing well for ourselves, we even bought a new house on the outskirts of the city.I mean we can't wait to live together as a couple once we welcome our child into this world.On a sunny day, I was seated alone in the sitting room while I was busy reading some parenting books.Dante was in his room working while the rest of the family went out to shop.I do not know what they went out to buy, hopefully, it is something to my benefit.Suddenly, I heard footsteps walking into the mansion and with that, I lifted my gaze to see who it was.Only to discover it was Raymond.With fright in me, I stood up in a rush and my voice increased in fear as I spoke."Raymond, what are you doing here?" I asked him, while I was shaking in fear."Please Valerie, listen to me," he said to me as he moved closer to me.Then, I heard Dante's
Chapter 1 ~ Valerie's POV============"I shouldn't have trusted him, I'm such a fool," I wailed in tears as I downed myself in a glass of vodka.Seated on my bed, I gulped in my drink slightly as it burnt its way down my throat just like my heart was hurting."Why did Raymond break my heart after four years together," I said, as I sulked in my tears continuously explaining my pain to Stephanie, my cat who was looking at me in a very confused way, purring out a meow."I can't believe I am talking to a cat," I said as I realized and so I stood up to get another bottle of vodka as I had just emptied a bottle.Upon reaching my mini-bar section in my apartment, I poured myself another glass of vodka while I felt a bit tipsy.Not too long ago, I heard my phone ring while I was sipping my drink engrossed in my solo talks.With that, I stood up while struggling with my steps to reach where my phone was and so I murmured silently, "Who could that be,"Checking closely, I realized it was Annabe
Chapter 2 ~ Valerie's POV============After some hours of driving on the road, we got to the club, which was extremely crowded but at the same time exclusive.I was stunned to even believe my best friend, Annabelle knew a place like this.Reaching the entrance, the bouncers who stood there gave us a free pass, as they knew Anna extremely well.Seeing all of this, I was prompted to speak, "Annabelle, you never told me you party every day, I thought it was an occasional thing," I shouted as we were approaching the dance floor."All this doesn't matter, what matters is partying hard, woohoo," Anna said in a high tone as she began dancing and swinging her arms around. Soon I joined her dancing as I began enjoying the rhythm.After some time of being engrossed on the dance floor, we both headed to the bar section to have some drinks while moving to the played music.Upon reaching there, we had our seats, and Instantly, a young and handsome-looking man in a firm-looking suit approached the
Chapter 3 ~ Valerie's POV=========As the following day arrived, the glow of the morning shone into my bedroom reflecting on my face and obstructing my sleep.Despite my eyes still laced with tiredness from last night, I looked at my side and found Dante still lying. And then I decided to return to sleep when my eye direction moved to the wall clock close to my bed and suddenly I remembered I was going to work.Instantly, I stood up from my bed, leaving Dante still sleeping soundly on my bed as I rushed into the bathroom so as not to be late for work.Five minutes later after entering the bathroom, as I got done with my bath, then suddenly I heard the sound of the door being closed and so this prompted me to come out of the bathroom in a hurry.Coming out, I realized Dante was nowhere to be found. I searched the living room but he wasn't there, I was confused as to why he left without saying a word to me or even leaving a note for me to read, then I reminded myself, how unbothered I
Chapter 4 ~ Valerie's POV==========While I was still seated to feel more relaxed, suddenly the landline in my office rang, so I responded to it by placing the receiver on my left ear, I said, "Hello, this is Valerie Skye, how may I be of help to you,""Hello Valerie, please come to the conference room," the voice said."Okay sir," I answered, as I heard it was Mr blaze's voice.In haste, I left my office for the conference room, and upon reaching there, I found him and Dante standing side by side with a few people still there.Approaching them, Mr. Blaze saw me from a distance, as he yelled "Yes Valerie, I want you to do something for me," "Alright sir," I said to him in a soft tone as he is still my boss."Please can you show my son, I mean your new boss around, and finally to his office," He requested?And so he continued, "It's been a long time since he has come around as he had spent so much time in London which would make him a bit unfamiliar with some things, But it makes me
Chapter 5~ Dante's POV========On my way home with my vehicle still on the road, I was overwhelmed with surprise as I couldn't believe the woman I had a one-night stand with was indeed an employee of my father.With this thought on my mind, I burst out into laughter as I muttered, "Now, this is going to be fun, more fun for me I guess," so I relaxed properly into my seat, as my driver was still focused on the drive.A few minutes later, we finally arrived at the Blaze mansion. Getting out of the car, my mother, Tina quickly approached me, wearing a bright smile on her face, "My son," she said with a hint of pride."Mom, have missed you," I responded to her, as she gave me a tight hug."I did too, you were far from home when your dad told me you were coming, I promise I was more alive," Tina said."I know Mom, I know, come on let's go in," I said to Mother, as we both went into the house. Entering, the servants in the house were already lined up in a straight line, as they began sayi
Chapter 6~ Dante's POV===========The next morning, as I reached his office, I placed a call to Ruth on the landline in my office. Once the call got connected I began, "Hello, Ruth, how are you doing,""I'm great sir, I hope you received the the text message I sent to you sir," She inquired."Yes, I did, please can you inform Miss. Skye, I want her in my office right away," I ordered."I will inform her right away sir, and congratulations on your first day at work sir," Ruth added.With a slight smile, I responded, "Thank you," and instantly I disconnected the call as I returned to my filled-up table, with for Valerie's appearance in my office, as I had plans she won't ever see coming.After an hour, I was still infused in my work when I remembered, I had yet to see Valerie, then I placed the call once again to Ruth, "Hello Ruth, I am yet to see Miss. Skye, didn't you inform her, I want her in my office?" I asked."Sir, I did inform her instantly, I got off the call with you, and she
Chapter 7~ Valerie's POV========="I really can't believe this Dante," I said to myself the instant he walked out of my office."He is my boss, no doubt but the threats, he gives, are what I won't take, " I continued.With my emotions on a high scale, I tried everything I could to calm myself, and lucky for me I managed to get calm.Returning to my work, I tried as much as I could to focus on it but the words of Dante kept creeping into my mind.I couldn't take it anymore, so I tried something else to see if I could distract myself from her thoughts but who am I kidding, it kept on coming in.In frustration, I said to myself, "That's enough, Valerie, you will not be weak because of his threats, yes you had a wonderful night with him, yes, he gave you the best sex of your life, yes he was so loving towards you that night, but look at the outcome, you found out how much of a jerk he is and that should be your gratitude,"After uttering those words, I gained more confidence in myself an

I asked him, while I was shaking in fear."Please Valerie, listen to me," he said to me as he moved closer to me.Then, I heard Dante's
Chapter 101 ~ Valerie's POV==========Not too long, we got done with breakfast and I and Dante headed to the hospital not too long after that.The drive was a boring one as no one spoke a word throughout the journey.I wanted to, but, I had to act a little bit tough towards him.Soon, we got to the hospital and once we were in, we headed straight to the nurse's counter."Good morning nurse," Dante said."Good morning Mr blaze," the nurse responded.I was quite surprised Dante was that known, I know he is a billionaire but it was on another level."Is doctor Helen on seat?" He inquired."Yes, yes he is on seat," the nurse replied with a smile on her face.It felt like she was flirting but who cares?I said to myself.Stretching his hands to me, which was a sign for him to hold onto me.Well, I wanted to refuse initially but, I just had to agree to him as I didn't want any more drama in my life."Thank you, nurse," he uttered to the nurse.And with that, he walked us to the doctor's o
Chapter 100 ~ Valerie's POV=========Soon we arrived at the mansion, and I must confess it was a hectic experience for me but I kept wondering why I hadn't seen Raymond or Christine around.It was strange to me as that snake Christine would have been hovering around Dante.Not like I care or anything but it was strange.Dante stopped the car, and we all got down.Gosh, I was extremely weak, and thank goodness Dante made them discharge me from the hospital, he is a lifesaver.Though I still hate the sight of him, why does my heart melt for him these days?Seeing how much struggle I was going to walk fast, then he neared me and carried me in his arms unexpectedly.I felt giddy at this act of his and somewhat embarrassed.I mean I am a grown woman who is pregnant heavily, he should cut me some slack with his romantic hullabaloo.Though he looks so cute to me suddenly, focus, Valerie I said to myself the moment I started staring at him while he walked his way into the mansion with me in
Chapter 99 ~ Dante's POV===========I was able to get through to my parents over the phone and honestly, their happiness was beyond compare.I haven't seen them this joyous since the accident with Valerie.But I am glad that's over now, after speaking with them, I returned my phone to my pocket and waited outside the ward, because I knew seeing me would only make Valerie get infuriated with anger.Still, I was glad she was over the dying phase.At exactly thirty minutes, I saw my mom and dad with Valerie's mother walking at full speed as they approached where I was seated."Where is she?" Valerie's mother asked, as her voice echoed how much she couldn't wait to see her daughter."She is inside the ward," I responded, pointing my fingers in the direction of the ward."Okay, let's go inside," my mother instructed.But I couldn't because I was certain I was going ruin their moments together."Valerie doesn't want to see the sight of me, not even on her sick bed," I explained to them.Th
Chapter 98 ~ Dante's POV==========After so many weeks of showing up at the hospital to check on Valerie.My parents and Valerie's mother were losing hope in Valerie as their saddened faces whenever they visited her at the hospital, they kept sulking in their eyes each time they saw her.But enough of that, having all their tears and sadness hovering around her could also be a reason for her still being in a coma state.Then, one day while I was seated In the ward Valerie was seated too.It was a private ward to be precise because I didn't want any disturbance or discomfort that would pull back her recovery.I just wanted her to open he eyes once more and fight with me like she does.So, I sat next to her on the bed she laid on and held onto her hands while I gently spoke a few words to her."You know Valerie, you don't look so good when you have your eyes closed for a long time, your beauty starts to fade bit by bit,""I wish you were awake, I would tell you the evil scheme Raymond
Chapter 97 ~ Dante's POV========Arriving where the rest of the family gathered, I gulped down saliva down my throat as I stood in front of my parents and Valerie's mother.Seeing me there, they all stood up as the curiosity on their faces was extremely visible to anyone."What did the doctor say?" My mother said first."Yes Dante, please tell us everything do not hide one bit of information from us," Valerie's mother added.Taking a deep exhale as I decided to tell them nothing but the truth at that moment.They deserve to know everything, well aside from the truth about Raymond and Christine that I just found out.They would also know about that in a few minutes or hours.Well, by the time the police arrive here though."The doctor gave a bad news," I began."Yes, going on," my mother encouraged, I think she noticed my hesitation in giving the full details."Valerie is in a coma," I continued, with my gaze lowered as couldn't't bear to see the reaction on my mother's and Valerie's
Chapter 96~Dante's POV===========Entering the doctor's office, he closed the door behind me as he walked his way to his sofa chair.Comfortably having his sit, he asked if I should have my seat also.I did, as he asked.Meanwhile, I was praying deep within me that he didn't have bad news to give to me."Mr." The doctor paused, as he had a look on his face which hoped I completed his words."Mr. Blaze, doctor, please tell me the full details of Valerie's health status," I inquired with so much desperation in me.I think he noticed this.Then, he had a soft smile on his face, with both of his hands clamped together."Firstly, I want to say the unborn child is fine," he began.Hearing this, I felt some settlement within me as I was grateful our child was safe.Then, my thoughts returned to the doctor, as I noticed he said nothing about Valerie's health.So, I asked him as anxiety took the best of me."How about my wife?"I could see a sudden glump of saliva down his throat, making my c
Chapter 95~ Raymond's POV============I was perplexed the instant I saw Christine with Mr and Mrs Blaze and Valerie's mother.Wondering how fast she was able to get to the blaze's mansion as he saw her at the crime scene with the so-called cousin or brother of hers.I don't even know the truth at this point but all I was certain of was that she caused Valerie's accident.And thank God I was able to call the police in time to help me.I said all of these to myself as I kept looking for a time to drag Christine to a corner and confront her about what she had done.Suddenly, the lights of the intensive care unit went off which was an indication for us to be aware of the end of the operation.It was obvious everyone was now patiently expecting the doctor to come out to them.The wait took a while but eventually, it was all worth it as the doctor came out at last.Removing the nose mask he had covering his nose and mouth with his stethoscope wrapped around his neck."Doctor, how's she?" w
Chapter 94~ Dante's POV=========="Gosh, why is this happening," I said to myself, the instant I entered my car.Taking a deep exhale, I placed my phone on the seat next to me as I tucked my car key into the ignition.Only to hear a vibrating sound erupting from my phone."Who could that be?" I murmured to myself as I stretched out my right hand to take it.Holding the phone in my hand, the phone was vibrating still.Only for me to discover it was Raymond calling.Seeing this, I found it worrisome to see his number pop up on my screen.Though we are both cool it felt sort of strange to me."Geez, I wonder why I am having so many creepy feelings today," I said to myself.But despite that, I clicked on the answer button shown on my screen and placed the phone on my right ear."Hey bro, what's up," I said to him as I sniffed in my nose real quick."Please come to the city hospital real quick, Valerie was in an accident," he said to me in a worried and quick tone."What?" I said in shoc
