Chapter 60 ~Dante's POV

========

Why does she always make everything between us get intensified for no reason, but I had to plead with her to allow this work.

"Please, Valerie, just say yes, I'll stay as far away from you as possible," I assured her, backing it up with a plea.

She still insisted on standing on her negative response. I felt frustrated with her behavior but I remained calm.

Then I asked the receptionist, "Is there any alternative available?"

"No there isn't sir, I'm sorry," she responded.

Suddenly, I heard her voice, "Alright, fine, I'd share a suite with you," she finally said.

Hearing this I took a deep breath, "Thank you," I appreciated.

And on that note, the receptionist gave me the card to open the room.

"The hotel attendants will help you with your luggage," She said.

"Enjoy your stay sir and ma," She continued as her smile ended her words.

He asked.I quipped hearing the word drink, as I knew taking them would affect my unborn child."I don't take alcoholic drinks anymore," I responded."Heh, when did you get so...... Uptight?" he asked, with a sneer beneath his utterance."It's nothing for you to involve yourself in," I quickly spoke out in defense of my secret."Okay...., Can we just leave this room to the bar section of the hotel, I think I need some drink, and of course you can take anything of your preference," Dante requested.I wanted to turn down his offer, but I needed to have some juice also, so I quickly responded, "Okay, let's go,"Then we left the suite we were in and walked our way to where the bar section was located.

And I returned to work as you ordered, what else do you want from me?" I said to him, demanding an explanation."Can you give me a chance to
