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 PovHe was hot even when angry. What is this feeling?A sense of pride? That my man has come to pick me up? Or wants to ruin my date tonight?I sighed heavily. It was too early for this. No scratch that, things like this should ever happen. At all.“No,” Nick shrugs in a disinterested way. I threw a small smile in his direction and his eyes told me they’ve got my back.Who does he think Eros West is to me?I wanted to know what Eros would do as a man who didn’t speak many words. I got an instant reaction as he signalled to the biggest guard in the room. Of course, Nick was no match for him as he was grabbed by the collar and dragged outside.It was comic but given the situation at hand, I couldn’t laugh. It got stuck in my throat before it came out.“Let me go, you piece of shit!” Nick ranged in the background. He was like a wounded lion and if I was the one, it would hurt my pride to be thrown of the place I sat.I glared daggers at him. At least he was making efforts not to

Eros’ POVThere she was, smiling and laughing at every joke he makes. I have been standing at the entrance of the hotel for now and it was easy to see the way her eyes twinkled at what ever he mentions.She seems to be enjoying herself.“Boss, I have the documents with me. What next?” Isaiah leans closer.I narrow my eyes at their figure. It was such an expensive hotel. It means the person she came with may be loaded. “I want you to stay in the car. Let Dimitri accompany me this time.” I nodded my head at the big guy. He was perfect for the job.Earlier this afternoon, I received a call from Emily saying that she needs me to tail Dalia. She was certain they were going to have dinner after work and for a moment I wondered why.I knew she was using me all this while. That cunning and manipulative bitch. Well, there was nothing to lose. I was helping her and she helped me in ways that benefited the both of us.If she did anything other than what I asked her to do, I would bring her down

Eros’ POVIs this what you do now? Going around and getting knocked up?”That was extremely harsh. I shouldn’t have said that to a pregnant woman. I guess my anger got the better part of me and now she looks like she wants to cry.“You’re an asshole.” She said and I sighed.I have always been a jerk and an asshole. Was she just realising it now?“Why are you so disgusted by me? What did I ever do to you?”That stopped me from saying more hurtful words. I am not disgusted by her. She is attractive.But.“Can’t you read the room, Miss Thompson? I am not here to begin a beautiful romance series with you.” I signalled Dimitri for the briefcase and gloves.Then she began to ramble, going for the low blow. I knew it wasn’t her fault. I was the one, I’d lose all rationing too. I am even surprised she is this calm. I’ll give her a point for that.“....It has resulted in this blood sucking parasite in my womb and here you are refusing to take responsibility!” She completed with what looked lik

Eros’ POV“...changed to Mrs. West whether you sign that contract or not.”“That paper in front of you is just for formality.” Dimitri adds to the best of his knowledge. This is why I have chosen him. He was the biggest and smart, almost like Isaiah...he will protect her well.Speaking of Isaiah...“Are you threatening me now? Is this something I should do against my will or should I just do it?”Her voice suddenly interrupts my thinking. Poor Isaiah, all alone in that car. Who knows what he did to that silly girl who couldn’t keep her phone inside her pockets.Anger filled me as I thought of what to do with the silly girl. I hope he held her hostage. Why can’t people respect other people privacy?!*********************************************Dalia's POVI don’t want to do this.If all I can see now is the disgust on his face then I don’t want to do it. I was almost tempted to smell the my underarms to check if I was the cause of the disgust on his face.I shift the papers back a lit

Dalia’s PoVWith a permanent smile on my face, I hope I convinced him enough. My hand clutched my bag tighter as I walked into the darkness. I bit my lower lips praying Isaiah insists on driving me home. I am a defenceless pregnant woman. What can possibly go wrong?Everything.“Mrs. Thompson!” I hear Isaiah call again from a distance. This time, he is running after me, breathing hard.“No, ma’am. I insist. I cannot allow you to walk alone this night. Follow me to the car. Dimitri will drop you off.” He pants.Just how far did I walk for him to insist?“I-“ I wanted to argue. Where was the fun if I gave in easily? It would seem like I want to sit in the same car as Eros West.“Mr. West will have my head of you refuse.” He tries again.That got me puzzled. Why would he have Isaiah’s head? That cannot not happen, can it?“Why would he have your head?” I chuckle. “alright, of you insist.” I decided, asking him to lead the way.There was no way I was going to walk down to my street at nig

Third person’s POVI don’t know about myself. He said I was perfect for the job.”Emily clicked the roof of her tongue because she knew Dalia wasn’t that great in the ‘careful’ department. She gets clumsy when nervous.“Dalia...” Emily emphasized, waiting for what Dalia couldn’t fathom.“I swear that was it. You know what, let me send you the email. I can’t convince you with just my lips.” She replied.Emily shook her head in wonder. “But you know It is going to be tough from now on. You have to do a lot of office stuff with the CEO.”Dalia sighed. “I know and it scares me a bit. But I have you so everything is going to be fine.”“Don’t try to be perfect, You may lose your job. I know Jeffrey and he is a tough boss. Tougher than Chris!” Emily chuckled loudly.Dalia gasped. “Your manager? I need to be careful...”“Yes, you need to be.”After a while, Emily stared at the blank phone in her hands. Just then, her manager was walking past. She gently pushed the lady attending to her face t

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. She had been lucky

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
