"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

    "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

    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

    EPILOGUE"Mama!" One year old Carson ran to the kitchen, tugging at Diamonds long blue gown. She stared down and let out a loud scream when she saw his state. 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

  • Calm And Ruthless; The CEO Diamond   THE WEDDING: At the beach in a red wedding gown

    Diamond's POVI sat in front of the vanity mirror, getting dressed by two stylists and their assistants. One was applying makeup to my face, while the other was almost done with my hair. I was looking stunning, like a bride should, as my hair was curled in a retro bun, leaving two strands on each side.The makeup on my face was exquisite, with a double-layer foundation and bright red lipstick.My brows were carved like waves, and my lashes were straightened with light mascara.A pair of shimmering pearl earrings on my ears and a pearl necklace around my neck. It was the day of my wedding—the day a new name would be added to my precious name.The day I'll be married to the love of my life, MaxI met him two years ago, and I fell in love with him at first sight, so without hesitation, I agreed to become his girlfriend when he asked me out.We were good together, and last year he unexpectedly proposed to me.

    I was humiliated publicly, and it was not something I could tolerate. I frantically looked around. Everyone seemed to be engrossed in them. I felt the drumming in my chest. Why did my parents encourage me into this marriage just to humiliate me this way? Why?I couldn’t find the right answers to my question. They both broke the kiss, and the two of them unanimously turned to look at me. Just when I opened my mouth to speak, Fiona beat me to it."Hey sister," she said, emphasizing the word 'sister' mockingly.Fiona got to where I stood and then chuckled while eyeing me like some disgusting creature. I simply sniffed and wiped away my tears. She smiled when she saw me do that."Seeing the great diamond this way gives me so much joy!" She laughed, and I gulped uneasily."W..hy me?" I stuttered, staring at the lady in front of me. She smirked and looked at me hatefully with her blue eyes. She and I were not alike. She had blonde hair, and mine was brown and medium-length.She was much sho

  • Calm And Ruthless; The CEO Diamond   Chapter Three: IT'S ALL A GAME FOR REVENGE

    I kept sniffing, trying to control my tears, but it was to no avail. I hated my life. I despised my mother, who brought me into this horrendous world. They destroyed my life; they destroyed everything. It was Mom, and she just had to involve me, who knows nothing about their messy vengeance."You punk!" Fiona made to slap me, but Max held her hand."That’s enough, wifey. You look stressed. We still have our honeymoon to go for," he said, wrapping his arm around her waist tenderly.She shot me a glance and walked away. Not saying a word, I held onto my mom’s picture and the DNA results. I stood up and subconsciously walked out, not minding the hateful eyes staring at me. It began raining. I walked like a zombie into the rain, crying. I could never have imagined my life would be crumbling like this right in front of me.Not on just a normal day, but on a day that was supposed to be my wedding."Why do you have to be my mother?" I murmured in tears, staring at the already wet picture

    Backtrack to a month ago.We were all having breakfast together except Fiona, who just left her meal halfway a moment ago.I will be meeting up with Max in the next hour. I guessed he had planned another surprise date already."How are your wedding plans coming along?" Dad asked after taking a sip from his red wine.I came to a halt, putting down the knife and fork I was using to cut my steak to give my dad my full attention."Everything is fine. Max suggested we send out more invitation cards next week, but I declined. We have invited more people already. I don’t want something grand, just small and simple," I replied, moving my gaze back to my food."Huh?" Mom looked at me, surprised at what I just said."Does the Xander family look like a joke to you? You’re our eldest daughter and the only heir to the Xander empire. Your wedding ought to be in grand style," she said, before turning to face her father, who was sitting next to her."Right, darling?"She asked. "Huh," Dad looked at

    I was about to stab myself with the knife when a message popped on my phone. I stared at the message to see it was sent by an anonymous, with only four words content: "You are a diamond."The knife subconsciously fell from my hand."I’m diamond..." I muttered as well and fell to the ground.But who was the sender?My stomach rumbled, and I groaned."I can’t possibly think when my stomach is still growling," I thought. The kitchen door opened, and Pinky entered."Oh, bestie!" She muttered. "I went out to get some foodstuffs as you were fast asleep, and I didn’t want to disturb you," she said."I should prepare breakfast; you must be hungry." She added. I lazily stood up, and that was when she noticed the knife on the floor."Careless me. I might have left it when I hurried out," she uttered as she picked it up.I said nothing. I grabbed my phone and left.- - - - -A month later- - - - - I was home all alone. Pinky left earlier, saying she has a meeting with her dad.Pinky is a b

    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.

    "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.

    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. I have to be careful so the press won’t get wind of what is going on

  • Calm And Ruthless; The CEO Diamond   I won’t let this happen

    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

    Rocky pov My head was disoriented after leaving my crime scene, it has been hours since the incident but I still can’t get it out of my head. “I killed Ricardo, killed him” I looked at my hand and I could still see the bloodstained, Ricardo's blood on me. 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. I heard the door open and wrapped
