Still on Diamond Pov

We went to the old man's study hand in hand like the couple we were pretending to be. This was the second time I was entering the study and I took my time to admire the antiques and design of the study.

It smelled wealth!

" Sit down." Old man O'Brien said and we took our seats opposite him.

" Grandfather."

" What's your honeymoon plan? " The old man suddenly asked.

" Honeymoon? " I stuttered. ' Well that wasn't part of the deal.'

" Grandfather, I just got back. I haven't had the time to think about that."

" Why? You guys just got married."

" I still have a lot of work to do in the company."

" They can hold on. Who does a wedding without an honeymoon?"

" Grandfather..... "

" I'll set the things up. You'll be leaving for your honeymoon tomorrow. "

" What? "

" Make sure you have a good time. I expect to hear good news soon."

" How long would we be gone?" Ricardo asked after sometime.

" A week. You may leave." Old Man O'Brien waved his hands.

    Ricardo went to the office first thing in the morning while Diamond got ready for their trip with the help of some maids." Get out." Mrs Emily said walking in with a scornful look." Good morning, mother-in-law." Diamond said all smiles." Keep your greetings to yourself." Mrs Emily spat." Sorry ma'am. Do you need something?"" Where is my son?""Oh, he left early for work. He'll be back soon though." Diamond replied." Is he the only one who works?" Mrs Emily glared at her." I'm sorry?"" You heard me perfectly. Don't you work?" She said with a loud voice and Diamond smiled."As a matter of fact, I do. I'm a fashion designer."" Hmmm.."" Is that all you want to know?"" Carry on." Mrs Emily said and left." That was awkward." Diamond said and one of the maids nudged her." No one wants to get on her bad side. She's like a devil." The maid said." No matter what you do, stay clear of the other devil." Another chirped in." Other devil?" Diamond asked confused." You'll get to see h

    " Sorry." I said and quickly stood up in embarrassment." Are you always this clumsy?" He grinned." I'm not clumsy." I defended. If it hadn't been for my foot..... Wait, maybe I am clumsy." If you say so. Careful next time." He said and helped me balance on my feet."Thanks."" Where to?"" Huh?"" Why did you get up?"" Oh,that. I was feeling sleepy." I said." Was?"" Yeah."" So sit."" No no. I'm still sleepy." Anything to get away from your boring ass." Okay. Dorian, escort the miss to the bedroom."" Seriously, we're in a plane. I don't need an escort." I scoffed." Stay outside the door till she wakes up." He said completing ignoring me." Ricardo."" You're my wife by law. You need to be protected at every minute."" Fine."...We arrived Male Airport the next morning and a limo was already waiting to take us to our destination. Ricardo stopped by a health care store to get some things before we started the drive to our resort." A villa has been prepared at the Velaa." Dori

    Ricardo's Pov"I wish you were dead instead, if only it was you instead of him" she yelled at me, looking at me with hatred in her eyes."Mother," I stretched my hand to try to reach out to her but she pushed me away."I hate you, so please just die instead!" She screamed and that brought me back to reality. I gasped out loud, my lungs devoid of air as I woke up from my nightmare.I sighed and rubbed my forehead, I used my other hand to loosen my tie. I had slept off on the couch, working on some documents Darion sent to me.I groaned and stood off from the couch, to get myself a cup of water when my eyes caught Diamond, I almost forgot I came here with her for my fake honeymoon.she was so deeply asleep with a light snore which made her look cute. I could tell she was exhausted. After our meal together, I had gotten so engrossed in work, to escape from her questions. That probably prompted her into sleeping but not before she squeezed out of me a date with her tomorrow.I move closer

    Riccardo was nowhere to be found after I was done getting ready. I had on a red floral dress and had my hair packed in a high ponytail, with a red scandal to match my dress. Ricardo's absence had me a bit anxious, did he bail out already of our agreement? I panicked.A rapt knock came on our room door, drawing my attention from the downward spiral, of my distress. Darion came in after I had permitted him to come in."Good morning Mrs. O'Brien, Mr. O'Brien is waiting for you outside. I am to escort you to him, please walk with me," he said and smiled at him as I followed him.It felt odd being called Mrs. O'Brien. I wasn't used to the O'Brien name yet, it just feels so strange. Darion took me to where Ricardo is, an outdoor restaurant at the back of the resort, with the sea beside the restaurant, we can eat and also enjoy the view.I smiled as I approached him, "Hello," I greeted excitedly, but all Ricardo did was wave his hand at me. He didn't pay any attention to me and was on his pho

    O'Brien MansionA loud commotion was heard outside of the study as Linda struggled to force her way into entering Old Man O'Brien's study."Please ma'am, the master is busy. He requests that no one disturbs him""That is none of my business, get out of my way!" She yelled at the servants blocking her from entering the study."Let her in!" Malcolm O'Brien's booming voice carried out into the hallway and the servants quickly cleared the path to the study. Linda straightened her dress, gave the servants a hateful glare, and strutted into the room.When Linda entered, she found her father talking to one of his men, but they stopped the moment she drew close. The man wished them goodnight and left them to talk."You refused to see me since I came back yesterday," Linda complained while her dad grunted, displeased by her presence."That doesn't give you the galls to cause a scene in my house. You should behave your age, Linda, you are no longer a child."Linda clenched her hands angrily at h

    Diamond's PovMy whole mind was completely blank as Ricardo kissed me, one moment I was crying and he wiped my tears away, the next he kissed me. I couldn't work out what to do, should I push him away, stand still, or kiss him back?But it felt so good, his tongue at the entrance of my lips, forcing his way in. His desire to have me, to take me was so apparent that I felt it, I had to give in, it was the only thing I could think of.So I opened my mouth for him, inviting him to do whatever he wanted, take whatever he wanted. His tongue slid into my mouth, tasting and toying with my tongue, his kiss was so passionate, so intense yet still gentle.It was like he wanted to devour me, but he also wanted to take his time doing it, kissing him felt so wrong and at the same time so good. How is that possible? I want to push him away but also pull him in.Ricardo stopped and pulled away from our kiss to catch his breath. I didn't even realize our lack of breath while kissing. The moment was so

I swear if you harm her in any way I'm going to kill you, I will make sure you regret ever living, I swear on everything I have.""Oh, that's a scary thing to say, cousin. I'm in fear for my life right now. But if I were you, I would be on my knees begging for her life, didn't you learn your lesson, or do you need more?""Rocky!" I yelled, getting up from my seat. "Don't you touch her, she isn't yours to play with," I said frothing. I noticed Darion, staring at me, mouth agape like he was looking at a man out of his mind. Considering the situation I would say that I am."Oh, this is quite interesting. Then is she yours? I don't think so, if she was, she wouldn't be crying over another man, her ex-fiance," he said and chuckled over the phone."How did you know that?""She told me, your wife and I are quite closer than you can imagine," he answered, I could hear the excitement in his voice.Did Diamo

Why do you always stay still and let him beat on? That bastard, I should just kill him, that's right, I will do just...

I swear I won't care who it is I will surely kill them. Only I get the right to torment or kill him, understood?" She nodded her head, petrified and I let go of her hand."I will go get the doctor," She said and hurried out.That crazy bitch, how dare she stop him? How dare she cut my fun short?

His face was filled with milk, his dress was stained too."Carson !!!" She screamed in frustration and he giggled. He clicked his tongue before letting out a smile, showing off the few teeth in his little mouth."I'm gonna spank your little buttocks!" She left what she was doing and ran after him. She ran around with his little leg, his giggles filling the kitchen.He hadn't taken more than five steps when Carson caught up with him. She carried him in her arms and pinched his nose slightly."You're so naughty!" She laughed while he smiled in return. She looked at his messy hair before heaving a deep sigh, then she walked out of the kitchen. Her eyes widened when she saw the living room, it was messy and she pinched the bridge of her nose. To worsen it all, Carson was already playing with her hair, tugging it hard."Carson!!!" Sh

    Diamond relaxed in the huge jacuzzi, enjoying the warm water against her skin. They had returned from the hospital that evening and the Doctor had promised to do his best in saving her.Cardo had gone over to his place and he already called to tell her he was on his way. Diamond inhaled the scent of the foamy water in her hand and smiled satisfactorily. Her eyes were still closed."Having a great time, wifey?" Her eyes opened slowly and she smiled when she saw Cardo in the jacuzzi before her. She could tell that he was also naked as he was shirtless."You're back" she whispered. Cardo grinned before pulling her to himself. He turned her body to his so that her back was facing him. Then, he placed his arms around her stomach, caressing it softly.Diamond rested her head on his chest, smiling in nothing but satisfaction. Was this how it feels to be loved? If it is, then she doesn't want to come out. Never!"How did you know?" Her voice came out in a whisper. She felt his cold lips on h

    "Valeria!!!" Diamond screamed happily when they entered the ward to find him feeding Valeria. She rushed to the bed and pushed him out of the way, earning a giggle from Valeria. He frowned before moving away. He went to Cardo."Who sent the spy?" He asked. "Rocky"Cardo replied and he cursed. It was as though he knew it. He asked Valeria how the accident happened and she explained that she was hit with a car. He knew instantly that it was his doing."That bastard. Wait till I set my eyes on him, I'mma cut his head off" he growled."Val, I was so worried!" Diamond cried as she held Valeria's hand."I was scared, I thought we lost you," she whispered. "Lost me? Oh no, that's not possible! I still want to know what happened during your date, yunno?" Valeria wiggled her brows teasingly."So, tell me..." She leaned towards Diamond ears and whispered."Did you wear the lingeries?" She asked. Diamond laughed before nodding her head.Valeria gasped, her eyes shone in excitement."Then... Di

    "I LOVE YOU"Diamond felt a sudden wave of emotions rush through her when she heard the words she was least expecting. Her cries reduced but her low whimpers could be heard as her face was still buried on his firm chest."I love you," he whispered again but this time louder, clearing her doubts. She had thought she was hearing things when he repeated his words, this time louder than the first."Cardo" she moved out of his hold to stare at him. His dark green eyes probed hers gently, his eyes were soft but she could feel pure desire behind it."Beautiful" his voice was husky as he got a grip of her shoulder. He titled his head slightly to the right and pressed his lips on her neck, passing his tongue through the soft flesh."Handsome," she held his shoulder, her lips slightly parted. They were still under the shower and her nîpples hardened against his chest."I'm sorry for making you cry, baby. I know I deserve a hit but please, forgive this filial husband of yours," he murmured again

    He flung the door open violently and entered in a rush. There, he met the love of his life, sleeping peacefully. There was Oxygen on her nose but the continual beeping of the machine made him relaxed a bit."Baby," his tears fell. This time, a happy and sad one. But, his happiness was larger than his sadness. She is alive! His woman is alive!"Valeria!!" That was Diamond scream. She left Cardo and rushed to the bed, getting a hold of Valeria's warm hand."Val..." She whispered, sniffing gently. This wasn't how she pictured their meeting to be. She had pictured Valeria teasing her about the honeymoon, asking if she wore her lingeries she packed for her.But now, she was on a sick bed, struggling to stay alive. Diamond shook her head and broke down into tears."Wake up, Val. I still need you to tease me, I want to hear you scolding me all the time. You're the first friend I ever have when I came into the mansion , please don't leave me" she cries. Cardo walked to her and held her should

    "Do you know what this is?" Diamond showed him the piece of paper in her hand. Cardo was eating, he refused at first but after a lot of persuasion, he was finally eating it."What?" He collected it from her and glanced through it. His eyes widened after reading it."Where did you get these from?" He asked slowly, his eyes slowly turning into a dangerous one."I don't know. He was rushing off and... He seems to be in a hurry," Diamond said."Cardo, you need to see this!" Drake went to Cardo. He showed him the paper and He chuckled.... An evil one."I knew it. There's a spy," he shook his eyes. He stood up and left the table. Diamond went to cover the flask and then packaged it together."Spy? Who would dare betray you?" She asked, walking to him."Someone is selling our company information out" He informed her. Diamond gasped."Wh... What?""We're having a hard time, Diamond. Our company might go down at this rate," Drake went further and Diamond’s eyes widened like saucers."Go down?"

    Rocky's POV I chuckled after overhearing Diamond and Valerie's conversation. So, this is Grandpa's plan. I didn't expect him to do anything, but I also didn't expect him to go this far. If Diamond gets pregnant, then his plan is brilliant. If he succeeds, then I won't be able to intervene. It is a good plan, and I could tell Mom supported them, winning her trust back will slightly be possible. If Grandpa proceeds with his plan, I will lose everything, I have to stop it from happening. But how? It isn't like I can kidnap Diamond and stop her from doing it. Everyone will surely know I'm the one, but why can't I? I don't need to kill to stop her, there are many ways to stop her” I said with a grin. I picked up my phone and dialed a number. “Hello, I need you to do something for me” Diamond’s Pov My mind was completely occupied getting out of the car, I’m meeting the doctor today and I can’t stop feeling scared.

    Diamond’s POV My heart raced as I sat amidst the O'Brien. It had been over a week since Ricardo's accident and a few days since Malcolm's absurd words. It seemed like he was starting to move forward from it. Rocky, Edna, Valerie, and I gathered in the living room, waiting for Malcolm to arrive while Emily was at the hospital taking care of Ricardo. "It feels like a long time since we've all been together like this," Rocky commented with his usual grin, he has been like that since Ricardo's accident. Tension rose as we all sat in the living room, he has been a total douchebg for the past two weeks, causing friction within the company, with half of the board members on his side. His motive is as clear as the day, and today's meeting is to stop him. On the other side, there is someone who has been getting on my nerves apart from Rocky and that is Edna. His recent avoidance of Valerie and me, coupled with frequent association with Rocky, raises concerns. Edna is grappling with somethin

I couldn’t go back to the O’Brien estate, I had to go to one of the apartments given to my mom. My man took care of the situation but I made a call about Ricardo's situation. The police haven’t come to ask for my statement yet, but that only means Grandma is doing everything he can not to make it public, which works in my favor. I needed to get his blood off me, I ran to the restroom, removed all my clothes, and turned on the shower, I watched as the water cleaned all the blood, after a while I off the shower and went to look at myself in the mirror but was puzzled to see the blood all over my body. “No” I yelled and angrily punched the mirror, it cracked into two but the blood didn’t disappear.
