***Daisy’s POV.***

I feel Theo’s burning gaze on my back. And as I come out of Toby’s arm, I can see Olivia’s astonishment at seeing Toby here through my peripheral vision. I can also feel tension in Toby, too. 

“You were saying something, Olivia? I didn’t hear when this guy called out so loudly.” I say as I put my hand on Toby’s arm and rub it. 

“Nothing. I thought Tobias would not come as it got late. So, I thought of telling you to come with us.” She says with a fake smile.

“Oh!” I say.

“Okay. So… bye. We shall see you tonight.” Toby says.

    ***Daisy's POV.***The rest of the ride was a bit silent from there on. Even Olivia and Toby were not speaking anymore like something happened when they were gone to buy our lunch. I changed my seat with Olivia when she came back as she wanted to discuss things with Theo.Toby was getting irritated and so was I when they were acting so close and their conversation changed from formal to informal. While Toby and I on the other hand played little games on our phone because we couldn't talk in front of them when they were so loud which they weren’t but we were using that as an excuse.When we reach Bristol, a limo is pulled for all four of us to take us to a villa which Theo bought as an investment and it is next to the hotel. Toby accompanied us as he wanted to see the progress of the hotel too then take me out for dinner where he would surprise me with something.I got changed once my bag came a

    ***Daisy's POV.***"Not this. Definitely not this one too. Where do you find a perfect swimsuit when you want one?” I ask myself as I surf through the shop for a swimsuit for Toby’s upcoming pool party.I had a busy schedule during the first week in Bristol and didn’t have time to buy a good swimsuit. It is not like I didn’t bring one with me as I am a water baby and swimming is in my soul. It is just that the one I brought with me is not sexy or cute in any manner.I had to tell Toby to postpone the pool party to next weekend so it would give me enough time to buy one, a day before the party. I had literally run from my work. The reason is Theo is keeping me way too busy on purpose so I won’t be able to meet Toby. Olivia is doing the same. As the fellow investor, she would hang around Toby for other property he should invest in.Last weekend, T

You can’t go back on your words.” He says.“I will scream murder.” I say as I glare at him which makes him stop but only for a second.“Do you think I would have approached you with people around? They are far away and the music is loud too. Come on. Don’t get shy now. Let’s have some fun.” The man says and grabs one end of the knot.“Don’t you dare. This is my last warning. What would come after this would be painful.” I say.“Like a little lady like you could do me any harm in water. It is impossible to move fast in water, dear.” He says.“Not if you are trained by your own military retired father.” I say.

Send my car back after he drops you.” Olivia says as she looks at the drink.“Okay.” Theo says.“Bye, Toby. The party was grand. Thanks for inviting us and I will see you.” I say and hug him and whisper, “Would you be okay?”“I would be fine.” He whispers

Thank goodness.” Theo says and I look at him to see a tired look in his eyes.“What happened?” I asked him as my brain still feels fuzzy.“You had a very bad fever. But it has gone and you are fine. I will call the doctor just to be sure.” He says and leaves the room.I try to get up but I feel tired like I have worked for hours and got sore muscles. But I am getting very

I didn’t want to give them another chance and sever them from our lives once and for all. So I let it happen. But don’t worry, soon everything will be fine.” I say. “How? I don’t care about that.

But flights are still off limits for you. Also, after three weeks, you can know the gender of the babies. Are you excited to know?” She asks. “Yes.

Come in.”I look at Theo for a full minute and ask, “Why are you wearing this?”He is wearing a white t-shirt, black jeans, and a black biker jacket. He has put on a cap and mask to hide his hair and face and goggles to hide his eyes. He looks more… hot like a bad-boy. I want him.
