Eros' POVOr maybe not.“Eros West. Fancy seeing you here.” Emily kept a smile on her face. I am sure it’s the type of smile I usually leave on my face to keep up with appearances. Then she pointed at her car. “I suppose this is your driver?”I nodded my head, putting both of my hands into my pockets.“And this is your driver?” She pointed at Sebastian who looked even more apologetic. This is because I knew her name.I nodded, brushing my nose with the tip of my left thumb. “And your point?”“I would like Bluetanic to be repaired and re-sprayed with immediate effect. I cannot overlook this negligence just because you are Eros West.” She claimed folding her hands over her chest. This time, a smirk appeared on her lips.She was toying with me. She probably knew about Dalia’s predicament and wanted to see what I would do. I mean, who wouldn’t be furious to hear about Dalia’s predicament. If anything she should be angry at me. I just wasn’t ready for a child. It was a mistake and I was pl

Dalia’s PoV“Dad, I am pregnant.” I choked out.There was a long pause. I thought he didn’t hear but I knew he did because I felt his shoulders tense. “Dad? Did you hear me? I said I am pregnant..” I looked at his face.“I heard you the first time Dalia..” He trailed off, still not giving away his emotions. Just how hard has Dad practiced for this moment? The moment when I would tell him I am pregnant?I shifted a few metres away. “You hate me.” I just knew he did. How can I tell him such a news and he just sits there looking into nothing. But what was I expecting him to say? Absolutely nothing. Nothing needs to be said in a situation like this. He wasn’t like Emily who supported me throughout the first month of misery. She didn’t even tell Dad of the terrible news.I had no man beside me. He has refused to claim the baby.I felt thick hands gripping my shoulders tight. “Honey, you overthink things sometimes. Bring the young man to me, I will accept him.”I shrugged my shoulders hard,

Dalia has messed up. I muttered to myself with a chuckle. I stood up from my bed to peep out of the window. There she was, running like her life depended on it.It was funny as I couldn’t stop the laughter from rumbling out of my insides. Then I frowned at how far she was getting this days. It is becoming increasingly hard to hide the pregnancy. No, scratch that. The moment she decided to keep the baby was when it became hard to hide it.Who are we fooling? Everyone will know Dalia is pregnant in no time. But it shouldn’t be anyone’s business if she is though. I shrugged in agreement.Few minutes later, I opened the door with my eyebrows furrowed. I didn’t want her to see how comfortable I was in this situation. Maybe I should have prepared a fake cast, bandaged my hands, legs and head, poured ketchup on it just for evidence.It would be hilarious to see Dalia’s expression after that.“Dee..” I started but she breezed past me, breathing hard. This is bad. I shouldn’t have let her come

Eros' POVThe oldest daughter in the house, Athena West was the force of the WEST family. She proved it by completing a double degree in Law and graduating with double honours, despite the competitiveness of the exam.Athena West was one of the top five female family lawyers divorce lawyers in the world. The only thing wrong with her almost perfect career was her recent divorce. I wasn’t too surprised to hear about the divorce as I saw it coming many years ago. With that ego of hers, she would never humble herself to any man. I guess it runs in the family.It was summer in New York but still cold compared to the summers I was accustomed to so I wasn’t fazed to see her wearing a fitted blue blouse, the buttons straining at the chest to emphasize her full breasts. Her hands were firmly planted inside the pockets of her black flannel trouser and a designer coat covered the rest of her body shape. Tanned legs stretched into black stilettos heels.It seemed like she just came back from one

Eros’ POVI raised my eyebrows at Echo who was the perfect princess of the house. She was one of the top mental therapist in the city who helped people in making difficult decisions and stopping them from harming themselves. It looked like there was nothing wrong with her. I looked warily at her from head to toe. Although I did find her make up disturbing. Of all the things on her body, her make up was the most disturbing. It was too perfect and anyone too perfect had the most problem. She saw the fault in everything even as a kid. What an Irony. The mental therapist needs through reformation.She would snatch my toys away claiming I wasn’t satisfied with them, she would trash the tea party I and Betty was having claiming it was supposed to be for her and Betty. Yes, she tried taking Betty away from me but Betty was too stubborn for her to handle. She wants everything for herself. The things she claims were perfect was what she wanted for her self. She was dressed in a fitted all-net

Eros’ POV“If you as much as squeak Echo, I won’t hesitate to put you in your place and make you visit a special therapy session with me.” I also muttered loud enough so she could hear the anger in my tone.Echo straightened her wavy hair. She was too old for this and the earlier she realised this the better for her.“Don’t you dare speak that way to my daughter.” Father ordered. He was the type who hated this type of discussion at the table. The bitter irony because it was them who started this first.I scoffed in disbelief. “I believe I have the right to say anything I want to say at this table. After all my status requires me to.”Due to the situation at hand, I was allowed to talk. My parents has made it a rule, if you don’t have anything to bring to the table, you are basically worthless.Dalia’s POvMy mouth remained open even as Emily finished seconds ago..“Wait, all these was just to escape...” I sighed in relief. “You did scare me. I can not believe I rushed all the way here

Dalia’s POVTo work hard and not get pregnant like me...“...using our old list. We don’t want any problems this year.” Jeffrey suddenly said bringing me back from my thoughts.Thank goodness he couldn’t see I’ve zoned out. He was staring into nothing when he added bitterly.“I don’t know why those undisciplined CEO’s would sign the deal with us and end up bringing problems.”Unfortunately for those who signed the deal with us, we would make all the money and other stuff attached to it. It wasn’t our fault. If you needed to promote your brand, this was the only way to do it in MELT. A lot of people have benefited from this even though the rumours claim that we exploit and use them for our own gain.It’s the way the world works so it was better they suck it up or turn it to work for their good.“I should alert the Legal team so that they would be well aware of this.” Then I remembered the small notebook in my hands. I squinted at the jargons scribbled on the first page. “..And you have

Dalia’s POV“Why? It is a place everyone would like to buy even ten years from now.” I disagreed.He clicked the roof of his tongue. “I see what you are doing but I will play along. I am a business man too.” He glances at the ceiling too. I didn’t know if it was for emphasis or to make fun of me. “The world evolves everyday, Dalia. Who wants to invest in a building that can be demolished anytime from now? I’d rather invest in the land, knowing full well that I can get double the price of this building in ten years time.” He completed with an evil smirk on his face.I swallowed, hiding my surprise. “You are good.” I admitted. Why didn’t I meet such an intelligent person at graduation?Perhaps life wouldn’t have turned out shitty with men.“I didn’t take you as the type who liked business. I thought all you did was..”“Party? Yes. I party a lot and Infact I have lots of girls who worship me as we speak. They can’t get enough of me.” He teased without shame.I rolled my eyes not agreeing

Dalia's POVThe days went by pretty fast. One afternoon, I was in the hospital, and the next, we were on our way to the West mansion. Eros didn't have to send a message like he usually did."You didn't leave the baby in the house, did you?" I asked Eros who looked better than he did a month ago. He barked out a laugh. "What? I already tucked her in."I sighed in relief. It happened sometimes because we were too preoccupied with each other. If Emily learns of this, she will take the baby from us permanently. I smiled at the thought.We were still in the first paragraph of the chapter. It was beautiful, just like I had always wanted. One time, I heard the maids discussing Betty. What she did when I wasn't around was nasty.Why would she seduce Eros? It was there that I learned that Eros had slept with her one drunken night. My heart sank at the discovery, but it was a long time ago. A long time, yet Eros hasn't said anything about it. Hold on a minute. I don't go about telling him abou

He had received the divorce papers, but they weren't signed. Good.Eros jumped at the vibration of his phone. He hoped it was good news. Then he frowned when he saw Emily plastered across the screen. He picked it up immediately. She hasn't spoken to him in a long time. He knew the reason."Dalia got into an accident. I will send you the address." She hung up and Eros panicked. He tried the number again, but it went straight to voicemail. Then the message came in. She was in Spain! He didn't mind. He would meet her anywhere. All he wanted was for her and the baby to be fine.The maids watched with hands folded as he turned the house upside down while preparing for the journey.They no longer saw Bethany Woods because they overheard Eros rejecting her during a heated moment. He said he loved Dalia and she was his wife. Betty had left with anger. Now, she has lost Eros as a friend too.***********It was a drunken mistake. Nick had swerved right into an upcoming truck.

It was a month until Thanksgiving. It's been two months since Dalia left the house. She didn't even take her belongings except for her phone.She had left his black card on the bed.Eros was a mess. He had gotten thinner. His eyes sank in. He was a shadow of himself. He didn't think she would take his words seriously and disappear for two months. There were no pictures, no news, nothing!His phone vibrated. It was the officer who caught the burglar months ago. Adkins. "Have you found her?""No." came his disappointing reply.It has been like that. Every call was disappointing.When Eros arrived at the office, he didn't know that all eyes were on him, watching his every mood. His staff avoided him like the plague. Not because he was angry, but because of how tired he sounded and looked."Jeez." Sara muttered under her breath. She was consoling Tracy. Her boss won't be coming to the office forever! Or so she thought. "I don't know what to do." She was thinking of calling Jeffrey, but it

The letters! Dalia mentally facepalmed. She should have kept it well. Away from Betty's hideous eyes. She thought she had them hidden.Eros' face was ashen in color and when he didn't say anything in reply, it occurred to Dalia that he already knew about it. Her heart sank deeper. She didn't think about telling him because it was nothing. Maybe when they went to the office the next-day, she would have told him about Nick. Only if he asked!A loud knock on the door pulled Dalia out of her thoughts. Eros sighed, making his way upstairs. "They are here again. Increasing by the minute all because of my foolish wife."'he called me his wife' Dalia realized with sadness. It was at that moment she knew that she fucked up. Now she has Eros in a tight spot. He may not look like it but Eros was enraged. It's just that he just apologized to her yesterday so it seemed like he was tired instead."I am sorry!" Dalia cried out. She didn't know what to say that would soothe him.Eros paused on the se

Dalia paced the room up and down. She was restless and could not place her butt somewhere. "Pick up, Emily!" She gritted out. How did it happen? Nick only grabbed her because she was about to leave! They were not doing anything like whosoever that took the picture was suggesting!Emily picked up at the third ring. "What the hell? Dalia!""Emily! What should I do? I know everyone has seen the picture. I don't think Eros should see it.""Eros should never see it. Go and see for yourself and make sure he doesn't have his phone around him."Dalia nodded, opening her door. She was down the stairs in a flash. "What should I do if he has already seen the picture?""I don't know. You love him, I don't." Emily's downcast voice dampened Dalia's spirit.Dalia could imagine her friend shrugging in helplessness. "I swear, it was a mistake!" She was still explaining to her dearest friend when she saw Eros with his phone. He wasn't looking at it but beyond it. He was looking at her. He knew about th

Dalia's POv.The next morning…I arrived just in time to see Tracy drop another letter on my desk. What is it this time around?! The letters were getting frequent! I am not in the mood for his pranks and silly antiques.I dismissed her quickly, snatching up the letter.I tore it open expecting to find cheesy lines, but I didn't see any."Come to the park by 7:00 p.m.; I have a surprise for you." Why would Eros ask me to come to the pack when he snubbed me on his way to work this morning. What surprise does he have for me? I folded the piece of paper in anger, dumping it into the trash bin.Tracy walked in with a cup of coffee. Just what I needed for my already puffy eyes. "Not in the mood? I have got just the right thing for you." She subtly eyed the dark shades sitting on my nose.I have nothing to say to her.I left work early because, I mean, who can stop me from leaving whenever I want to? Not even Eros, because I am pissed at him.The park was almost empty. It was evening, and

Dalia's POVShe was always right.My dear Emily.Why is she friends with someone as daft as me? She told me to confront Eros about Betty because she was biting more than she could chew. I have decided to take the bull by the horn today.I need to hear from his mouth whether he loves her or not. If he says he loves her, I will move out of the way, give birth to my baby, and divorce him. The baby won't have to live his life thinking he was born out of wedlock. When it comes to custody of the child, I won't allow him to get away with his misdeeds.The drive home was quiet as usual as I mused over the things Emily told me that afternoon. She expressed her anger for Betty and wished she met the bitch one more time. Her words, not mine.I entered the house to see Eros in aprons. He greeted me with a small smile, which made me confused. He has never smiled like this at me. The last time I saw him smile, only in a bigger version, was with Betty! My mood was already sour and damp."Your food m

Dalia's pOV. I found Emily later that afternoon slurping down her lunch. She had consumed two bowls already. It was noodles and boiled egg. Rosalind's Diner was an old Korean diner that specializes in homemade noodles. I almost snorted when she raised her messy face. A noodle got stuck at the side of her chin. Today she was putting on a blue belly blouse that revealed her smooth arms and palazzo jeans. From where I stood, I could see her belly button and her shaved armpit when she drank from the plate. "Eating lunch without me." Emily paused only to look at me before going back to her meal. "That's why I suggested this place." She said with mouth full. She looked wicked whenever she did that. "And I foolishly agreed with you." I turned to the woman sitting behind the counter. "A bowl of noodles and fried egg. Add extra spring onions, and chili." At the look of her confused face, I pointed at my baby bump. A look of realization clouded the form
