LUCAS POV

It's been three weeks since Allysa left without leaving a trace, three weeks since my life became a mess and three weeks since her mom kept sending threats to me. As I walked down the stairs, Benny walked out of the kitchen with a tray containing food but she should be used to it by now, I don't eat breakfast anymore.

“Good morning sir, you should have breakfast.” She said, placing the food on the table but I just scoffed.

“Benny I don't think you're learning. When have you ever seen me eating breakfast in the past few weeks? I'm running late and won't be the one to lecture you on what to do, you can have the breakfast.” I said and walked out of the house.

If only Allysa was here, then I'd be eating breakfast on a daily basis. My phone rang and Jack's name appeared on it.

“Hey dude, what's up?”

“Where are you? You cannot keep the investors waiting it's wrong.” Jack said.

“Then you should keep them busy that's why you're my assistant, talk to them and explain the project w

    ALLYSA'S POV I'd woken up that morning feeling tired and nauseous and now it was washing over me as I sat to fold up my clothes. I moved into my own apartment some days back and was still in the process of getting the place together. My hand went to my head, kneading it gently as a sigh escaped my lips. The doorbell rang and immediately I knew who it was.I stood up on my feet and walked over to the door, throwing it open as Max stood with two boxes in his hands. “Hi.” He said, smiling as I made way for him to walk in.“Hey, it's still not perfect but it's becoming homey, right?” I asked, referring to the decorations and arrangements of the house.“Yeah it's looking nice, I brought lunch.” He placed the boxes on the table, and turned to face me. “You haven't eaten lunch, have you?”“I totally forgot about lunch, I wouldn't have eaten if you hadn't brought this.” I replied truthfully, walking into the kitchen as another dizzy spell hit me. I clutched the door handle properly for suppo

    ALLYSA'S POV All through the ride back home, my hands were glued to my stomach, clutching it tightly. I knew Max was gonna ask me questions and I think it's best I come open with him.“Are you okay?” Max asked, driving into our driveway as I sighed. Finally I'd be able to hit the bathroom and have a nice sleep cause my legs were killing me.“I'm fine though it's not everyday one finds out she's pregnant.” We both chuckled at that as our eyes met.“I think I'm gonna have to come open about this and tell you the truth.” I said and he furrowed his brows.“What do you mean?” He asked as we got down from the truck as he assisted me into my house. “I didn't exactly come here for anything, I was running away from home.” He seemed more confused now.“You see I was married, a contract marriage actually. I never wanted to get married but my father insisted so I had to obey.“It was a loveless marriage, he usually called it a charade.” I laughed dryly but I guess Max didn't hear a joke in it.

    ALLYSA'S POV Eight months laterI sighed tiredly, stretching my hand to pick the cup as Max chuckled. I rolled my eyes at him, picking a fork with my left hand as I hauled it at him. “Have a care Allysa!” He screamed, ducking his head as the fork flew past his head.“What you get for annoying a pregnant woman,when are you driving me to the mall?” I asked and he sighed. He must have been really tired. These past few months has been hectic,fun and full of memories. Memories I'll forever cherish.“I'll take you there once I get back from work trust me and we're gonna eat out.” he replied as I scoffed.He's been acting like a father figure and even if I'd tried to stop him at the beginning he'd slowly found his way around me, finding a way to make me accept him the way he is.As he walked over to the door, I felt a sharp contraction around my lower abdomen as my face constricted. My face twitched.“Are you okay?” Max asked, walking up to me and holding my hands.“Ye__ ahhh.” I screamed a

I tore the seal, unwrapped the box and shrugged.“It can't be Leah, can it?” Jack asked.“We can't tell, let's find out what's in it.” I opened the box and froze the minute my eyes connected with the content in it.“What's in it? Why are you like this?” Jack asked, snatching the box from the table.He picked the content and his mouth fell open too. “This is not happening.” He muttered under his breath as I scoffed.“She moved on really quickly.” I whispered as he shook his head, standing on his feet. “Who sent these cozy looking photos? Whoever did this knows where she is and this person knows the implications of sending these t

I asked myself, staring at him as he pulled me gently out of the car with his second hand.“I'm not gonna rush you into saying anything Allysa, but know this. I love you and I love Ariel so much, I can do anything to make you both happy.” He sighed and passed the key to my door to me.I pushed the key into the keyhole and opened the door wide for him to walk in. “Welcome home sweetie.” He whispered as Ariel giggled and we both laughed.“It seems she understood what you just said. Children.” I whispered.I followed him into the pink themed bedroom and he placed her in her crib before sitting on the chair.“C..can I think about it?” “Sure you can, take your time but I'll tell you this, I'm very persistent.” He said and I chuckled.After making sure she was okay and sound asleep, we walked out of the bedroom, shutting the door quietly and moving over to the kitc

    LUCAS POV “What do you think you're doing?” Jack asked a week later as I picked the divorce papers and a pen. “I'm about to sign it, isn't that what she wants?” I asked, turning to stare at him.“You know that's not the case, something within you is telling you that's not the truth if not why haven't you signed the divorce papers? You saw that album but what makes you think she's really happy staying away from you? That's not the case.” Jack spilled as I sighed.“So what do you think I should do?” I asked, staring at the papers on the table. “You don't wanna sign this stuff so it's best you leave it, let's try finding out where the album came from then we can know her destination, it's best if you both meet up and discuss about this issue.”“Then I'll face a more befitting heartbreak when she tells me she's madly in love with her boyfriend?” “We're gonna talk to her and whatever her decision is, you'll have to respect it.” He replied and I nodded.

Thankfully Allysa and Ariel were sound asleep so I decided to prepare lunch in case she wakes up and decides that she wants to eat.I checked the screen and it was Leah.“I told you not to call me during these hours, it's still day time over here.” I said lowly, walking out of the house.“How's she? Did she accept your proposal to be her boyfriend?” She asked and I sighed.“She must have loved her husband so much, she hasn't said a word about it but I'm preparing lunch and__”“Make sure she accepts it!

How's the company going?” Her father asked and I nodded.“It's quite okay, how have you been? It's been a while.”“We've been okay, we decided to stop the search for Allysa since she doesn't want to be found, I guess it's her choice and decision.”“Yeah and we should respect that.” I said calmly.As they walked away, memories from the last gala kept replaying in my head. How I paid an investigator to watch her closely and all the bull shit I did.“You're lost in thought again, let me guess it's Allysa.” Jack said, coming to stand next to me as I sighed. “I miss her a lot. She is really hurt, I don't fault her for it and I really won't blame her, it's my fa

Said he had something to do at the office.” I replied.“And you're suspecting something?” Ivy asked as I sighed. “I can't help but feel that he's hiding something from me, something I ought to know.”“Oh really? Then you should ask him, be plain.” I nodded and walked back into the house.“Come on let's get you to bed, it's been a long night.” I said as I carried Ariel to bed. “Mummy am I gonna go to school tomorrow?”“Yes baby you'll go to school okay?”The next morning came really quickly as I got up from bed and walked to the bathroom to relieve my bladder. Walking out of the bathroom, I made my way towards Ariel's room and tickled her till she opened her eyes.“Come on mummy that's not fair, you're tickling me.”“Yeah, so you can get up and go to school.” Her eyes went saucer ro

Right here?” I asked“If I wasn't on duty, I wouldn't be standing right here in the open and trying to administer drugs to a patient, I won't do that. You should cut me some slack.”“I can take it from here, I'll give these drugs to my daughter, and you can go on and find something to do, you're not needed here.” She scoffed and pulled the tray towards her
