Kingston’s POV

It looked like Derek had dropped off the earth without a trace; he hadn’t left the country, according to records, and no one had seen him. Yet, I wouldn’t believe he was dead until I saw his body, and got to bury it underground. The fact that I didn’t see his body meant, he was somehow alive. Clarissa had been living a low-key life, apart from a few visitors that sees her, and she rarely does anything with her life. She was the shadow of the girl she used to be.

“Yes, I need an in-house doctor.” I paused to listen to the doctor’s report. Luisa's condition had me bothered. She was a woman who loved to go out even when I was against it. She had always tried to find a way, but now she doesn’t care a bit for the world outside. She was comfortable with the wall she had surrounded herself with. “Yes. I want someone you can trust with your life at this time. If the same thing that happened during the DNA happens again, I won’t hesitate to sue you guys. And I will make s

    Derek’s POVThe best things in life take time. I have learned how to take my time whenever I am doing important things, especially when I want a good result in the end. Everything was all about timing. If I hadn’t missed the time then, I won’t be here without the love of my life. The only reason I was still breathing.“Boss, I don’t think it’s going to be easy to infiltrate that mansion you talked about. The security is amazing. I had to glance at it from a far place. I took a picture, so you can see, boss.”I collected the phone from him and squints my eyes to get a good look at it. Everyone knew the Sanchez mansion had lots of security, but it was now better. They were trying to block every, and anything out of the mansion. I returned the phone to him. “Interesting.”“I also went to the woman you talked about, but she said she had no idea who Derek was.”Clarissa had denied me, although, I had expected that. I abandoned her first. Clarissa had always been a simple woman, h

    Kingston’s POVThe Blindfold was fixed on Luisa's eyes. She keeps trying to move it up, but my hand held unto it firmly. Jenny was in charge of taking care of Chris since she was the only other person he allows to carry him now. She no longer works as a maid in the house but assists Luisa with Chris. It was a duty that took a lot of convincing for her to start. She was reluctant, claiming there was no way she could watch her godson for money; it wasn’t a job. Luisa had to beg her mother to convince her before she agreed to it.“Where are you taking me to?” She questioned, obviously trying to remove the blindfold.The doctor had insisted I don’t put a lot of pressure into making her go out when she wasn’t ready to. So, I decided to bring whatever she could do outside, inside. There was no way I would allow her to keep doing the same thing every time without change.The garden was filled with a bench, a small cloth on the floor, and picnic baskets. I might have told Miss Andrea

    “Derek made use of his card.” Those were the words Stan told me when I picked up his call. I had insisted that he was to keep watch on Derek’s phone, card usage, account, and everything linked to his name. I wanted every piece of information I could get on it. If he made use of it in any way I wanted to be the first to know.“Where is the location?”“It was in some shopping hall in ‘Area B’.”I nodded, picking up my car keys immediately. Luisa moved her head to stare at me, “Where are you going?”“I just got some information about Derek. I am on my way there.”She nodded, “Do you think you will capture him this time around?”“I will have to see him first to be here but know I will give it my best shot. I will do everything I can to see that he is no longer a threat to our family.”Luisa looked scared. Any words regarding Derek usually make her scared, it was through a lot of assurances that she had to calm down. “I wish you the best of luck.”I pecked her on her checks and als

  • Billionaire Secret Baby   A Trap

    Kingston’s POV“What happened to you?” Jimmy's hand hitched closer to my face, but he stopped himself before he could hold it. Unfortunately, the place the fool had hit me had a small purple bruise. Another reason I avoided going home, I didn’t want Luisa bothering herself with something like a little bruise. It could easily deepen her fear of the outside world.“It’s nothing serious, Jim. I think I finally found a way to get hold of Derek.”His eyes widened at the mention of Derek’s name; he had been ashamed for losing him at the seaport that day, not that I blamed him for it. I was too engrossed in my family that I made a call to him so late. Yet, he kept saying if only he had been a bit faster. He felt guilty that we could barely enjoy our newly married life because of everything going on.“How? Did you see Derek? Was he the one that gave you this bruise?”How I wish it was Derek. At least, I would have carried the bruise with pride, but it was some unknown fucker. I touched

  • Billionaire Secret Baby   Anxiety

    Luisa’s POVSomething was off; I could tell when Kingston came back with a face cap on his head. He smiled lifting a bag in his hand. Instead of the bag, I moved to pull the face cap off his face, but he pinned it on his head tightly. I narrowed my eyes at him but can’t get a clear view of his face.“I bought pizza. Thinking you must be tired of homemade food.”He was trying to bait me, meaning something had happened with his meeting. I ignored the food he kept pushing towards me. “Did you catch Derek? Has he been arrested?”He let out a lengthy sigh, “I am sorry, Luisa. But, I was not able to fulfill my promise.”Which can only be interpreted in one way; Derek was still out there. I sink into the chair. My first instinct was to pull Chris closer to me, but he was with Jenny. I pulled the duvet closer to my chest. When I thought it was finally over, and we can finally have a life of ours. “So, what are we going to do? Are we going to wait for him to make his sudden appearance

  • Billionaire Secret Baby   Finally In.

    Kingston’s POV“What’s the guy doing now?” I asked Jimmy. The guy had been inactive since he got here and had been making me feel on the edge, knowing there was a way to get to Derek close to me, and doing nothing. It had been a week since he joined the security, but he was always left to work at the office.“Nothing unusual; he talks with the boys and they go out to drink. Although they have been informed not to let anything slip in front of him, and if there was any information, they should let me know.”I glared at nothing. “How about we hack into his phone? I can’t keep waiting for him forever if he isn’t doing anything. If Derek is out there, Luisa won’t be at ease, and I hate seeing her not at ease.”Jimmy frowned, “We have tried that, but the guy is cautious. He keeps all his things with him as if he is scared of getting them stolen. He barely receives a call or calls in other presence, and then he avoids most of the places with CCTV.”I sighed, I must have underestimated h

  • Billionaire Secret Baby   The invitation

    Luisa’s PoVI stand close to the window in my room staring at the outside world, it had been a while since I step outside. Even when I tried to, I see Derek in every person that pass on the road. There was no way I would allow Chris to go through what he did in Derek’s hand again. The street was busy, and people moved on as if we didn’t leave in a dangerous world already. A knock on the door made me turn to face the door. “Come in.”One of the maids came in, “I already sent the invitation to her, Ma.”She bowed before moving out. I knew they weren’t used to being thanked for their services, but I can’t help but thank her.I walked down to the kitchen, and on the way, I heard Chris laughing and chuckling. I wanted to peep at them, but I had something else to do. The moment I stopped in the kitchen some of the maids wanted to help me, but I shrugged. “I can do this alone. You guys can take a break.”They glanced at the door to see if Miss Andreas was around, “You guys don’t need

  • Billionaire Secret Baby   Reunited with Mother

    Kingston’s POVI chuckled at the little game my wife was playing; she must have noticed the tension between me and my mother and decided to play the peacemaker. Luisa was just good in heart, even though, my mother had never treated her in a way that would make her have considered her. Yet, that was when she did. Looking for a way peace would reign in the family.Chris chuckled in my hand; I am glad that he was smiling more than ever.Luisa took it upon herself to dish the food, and I had no idea who told her, but she had gone out of her way to prepare my mother’s favorite dish. I furrowed my brow at my mother thinking she was going to reject the meal, as she mostly rejects anything that comes from Luisa.Surprisingly, she lifted the first spoon to her mouth and let out a satisfied moan. I glanced at my wife, whose spoon was hanging in the air. She couldn’t eat as she anticipates my mother’s reaction to her cooking. I hide my smile before asking on her behalf, “What do you think abo

    Kingston’s P.O.V.“Derek’s dead.”Luisa dropped on the bed. I guessed regardless of how she thought she hated him, his death was still shocking to her. I was pretty shocked myself. I wanted to be the one who ended his life slowly, but I never thought he could be so cowardly. He chose his death to be tortured, but then he had been so sure of himself, so I wondered why he suddenly changed his mind and died.She looked around, avoiding my gaze and biting her lower lips.“I told the guys to bury him silently. He doesn’t have any family.”She sighed, “Do you also think it’s our fault? If we had handed him over to the police, he might not have killed himself, right?”Holding her shoulder, I shook my head, “It’s not our fault, Luisa. All we did was protect our family. Anyone will do anything for family’s sake. And we didn’t kill him. He chose death.”She paused to assimilate that and nodded, “I went to him yesterday, alone.”My hold on her tightened, “What?”“After we left Derek, I went to s

  • Billionaire Secret Baby   Who Cares About Law?

    Luisa’s POV I trailed back the path I just left with Kingston. I wasn’t supposed to be back here, but I had been doing daring things and was ready to take it up a notch. I wasn’t trying to be brave or pretending to be, but I wanted to make something clear to him, and I know I’m the only one who can pass the message loud and clear. I was expecting some kind of security to guard the building in case of an attempted escape – and I have my perfect excuse at the tip of my tongue.Alas! There was no one.The door was closed firmly, and the key was attached to it. It made no sense, but barely anything makes sense these days. When I came with Kingston, there was no one at the door, but I had expected that was because Kingston was there. I thought once he left, someone would be guiding him, like Jimmy, ensuring there was no way to escape.Well, I guessed attaching a key to the lock made it safe. I unlocked the door and stepped in slowly. My senses were on alert. Maybe someone was guiding hi

  • Billionaire Secret Baby   Plans

    Luisa’s POVI wasn’t wicked. I wasn’t the type that sees others in pain and gets happy, but I was when I saw Derek there. I thought it would be a painful experience, but it was just the closure I needed – knowing he wasn’t anywhere that could be dangerous to my family. Knowing he couldn’t escape gave me some peace of mind.After walking a few distances from him, Kingston stopped us, “Are you okay?”I frowned. I know he was trying to protect me, but I wasn’t some kind of weak female. I wanted him to know that. “I’m fine.”He didn’t smile, “I just want to make sure you are really fine. It’s your first time seeing such a sight.”That’s true. I might have felt pity for someone else, but I didn’t feel pity towards him. We continued walking, and an idea boomed in my head, “How about we celebrate?”“Celebrate.”I nod, “Remember that we couldn’t go on our honeymoon because of the situation. How about we start our celebration now?”He raised a brow in astonishment. He had rubbed on me. No

    Kingston’s POV.My hand hurt, and I wrapped a cloth around it bruises on it. I wasn’t ready to stop what I was doing. I grabbed Derek’s collar and moved him closer to me, but he was all limp. His lips were bruised and covered in blood. I was certain, I must have knocked off one or two of his teeth, but he forced a smile towards me, showing his bloody teeth.It was getting boring to me.I loved it when he struggled, and could still talk about how Luisa was his. How all I was doing wouldn’t make him leave her alone? How she was going to realize I wasn’t good enough for her?It was fun when he had the fight in him, but now, it was boring. He could barely talk, even if he wanted to.I threw him back, flexing my hand, and turned towards Jimmy who stood at the edge of the door. “No food for him today?”Jimmy nodded, and I headed to the bathroom washing off his filthy blood. I bathed thoroughly and changed my clothes before heading to my family. There was no way to hide my bruises so

    Luisa POVI didn’t take my eyes off Derek from the rearview. I could hardly believe he was her in the car with handcuffs. My gaze momentarily went to Rena and I paled – it was my fault. The bruise on her lips was all because of me. It should be my lips, not hers.“I am sorry, Rena.”She turned towards me and winced a bit touching the bruise, “It's okay. It’s what I signed up for.”I chuckled, “You didn’t sign up for a bruise on your face, that’s all on me.”She shrugged, “Regardless, I am just glad to be of help. Honestly.”Fabian snorted. I glared at him, but that didn’t keep him shut.“I can’t believe you lied to me, Jenny. You were the one I was looking for and you sent me up.”If it wasn’t for the bruise on Rena’s lips, I might have felt guilty for lying to him, but I felt nothing. “That’s because you weren’t willing to know the truth. You only heard the story from one person's perspective and you jumped to a conclusion. I can’t put my trust in someone who blindly trusts

  • Billionaire Secret Baby   Captured

    Kingston’s POVThis place was a hotel in disguise. It was hard to believe that there was a hotel without security, but the first point of contact was the receptionist. While we were trying to follow Rena’s dot, she stopped us with a smile.“Welcome to Numb Hotel. How can we be of service to you?”I frowned, and turned towards her, improvising, “We need a room.”She mentioned the price, and I could hardly believe how cheap this hotel was. It might have been the reason they lacked security and safety. She pressed a bell on the table, and we waited – each second painfully long until another woman came out from somewhere. She was fat and her stomach seemed to be obstructing her from moving normally.“Follow me.” She said.She started moving us in the opposite direction of the blue dot. I stopped and she copied me, “Any problem?”I pointed towards the direction, “I want a room on that side.”She sighed as if she had been afraid we were planning on canceling. I guess they do need mon

  • Billionaire Secret Baby   Foreign Place

    Luisa’s POVTracking someone wasn’t as easy as it was portrayed in movies. It was way more stressful, and it didn’t help that they were on foot while we were following them in a car. They kept boarding different public buses. After some time I took a nap. It took a while for me to wake up and see that we were following a new bus. Kingston turned and smiled at me, “You are awake. I think we are almost there. This is the mall where I met that idiot.”I looked out of the window. Of course, I knew the idiot he was talking about, but I didn’t say a word. The town Derek seemed to be hiding in wasn’t what I expected. It looked like a small town with fewer people. The mall Kingston had pointed out didn’t have a lot of people shopping there. It might have been the reason they were able to corner him without anyone to help him.“Where are they now?”“In the bus, ma,” Jimmy responded. I nodded thinking of what Rena would feel like at the moment. Her last words ring in my head, but I can

    Kingston’s POV“I think we should be getting ready now.”The moment I heard Luisa say that I placed my hand on the steering, but I didn’t move. I could see the eagerness in Luisa, but nothing was happening. It was just Rena looking around as if she was searching for someone; probably she was looking for that Fabian guy. No one had seen him this morning. They know to report to me once he was sight, but I haven’t received any message from anyone, it only meant one thing, no one has seen him. Rena stopped and placed her phone in her ears.“I think she is calling Fabian,” Luisa said. I smirked at her, everyone could see that but she was so eager to point everything out. If it was up to me, she wouldn’t be following us in this operation, but she had planned and worked on everything. I wouldn’t want to be the one to deprive her of the joy of achieving something. Plus, it would be good for her to see that Derek wasn’t invisible. I wanted nothing more than for her to be at ease with

  • Billionaire Secret Baby   Getting Ready

    Luisa’s POVI didn’t sleep all through the night. Kingston didn’t sleep either. He kept trying to keep me calm, but I had a lot of things going through my head. I had handed Chris over to Jenny. Kingston had instructed the security in the house to increase immediately after we were out of the mansion. He didn’t believe Fabian would keep it a secret from Derek. According to him, Fabian was the loyal type, and it would be difficult for someone loyal to keep a secret from his boss. That didn’t help my anxiety, it only added to it.All I did was pace around trying to figure out what hadn’t happened. I had never felt so paranoid in my life.“Calm down, dear. Nothing bad is going to happen.” Kingston said. He was sitting on the bed, his gaze continued to follow me as I moved.“I know, but what if he hurts Rena before we get there.”He sighed, “We are going to get him before he gets close to Rena.”I nodded because I trusted Kingston. I believe if he says it was going to happen, then
