Arthur POV

I couldn't keep my eyes away as she and Robert walked away. She shouldn't be here, especially with him.

“Don’t you want to greet more people?” Juliet asked breaking my gaze away from Dani, i didnt look at Juliet to know that she wasn’t happy. It was also a way to get Dani off my mind, we stopped at where one of my business associates was.

“Arthur King,” he greeted with a slight nod, he was with a slightly older woman, more older than he was and there was something in his eyes are they moved from me to Juliet who was pressed up beside me. His lips curled into a smile as they lingered on Juliet which made me narrow my eyes on him.

“Denver, i suggest you keep your eyes on what actually matters.” i said firmly and Denvers attentiont turned to me, not hiding that he had been checking Juliet out. “Looks like Greece has done you well,” i said and he nodded in agreement.

    Dani POVNickerson didnt say anything. He was quiet and when his eyes darted to something behind me i realized why.“What were you daring her to do?” He asked and my hands curled by mysides. Arthur was next to me and i could feel the glowering gaze directed at the men in front of me.“Arthur, i didn’t think you’ll come up here to meet me yourself.” Nickerson said ignoring me, he acted like i wasn’t the one he should be facing. He extended his hands out to Arthur for a shake but Arthur only glared down at the his hands and ignored him.“Don’t tell me you’re mad over something i said a random staff.” Nickerson stated bitterly and his brows narrowed. I swallowed wondering why he was making such a big deal of the matter.“Danielle isn’t just a random staff, she is my assistant and she stands in my place most times, if you’re disrespecting her, you’re also disrepecting me too.” Arthur said and i stared at him, he was calm but i could see that he was holding back from doing something that

I mean we can’t even afford it,” I muttered andy mothers hands covered mine. I could feel her gaze on me as I stared at my laps.“It’s the best option Dani, we will sort everything out in due time.” My mother said squeezing my hands gently.“Another option is to you have a relative that have similar blood group wit

I held both sides of the sink as i tried to keep myself from standing upright.I needed the break.

I was a mess and Arthur had hugged me knowing fully well how i looked like.Arthur.He was here.Its obvious that he likes you.“No, no he doesnt.” i muttered to mysefl trying to counter the ridiculous thought of his liking to me. “He doesnt like me like that, we’re just friends.”Friends?

I have been in the web of mistakes, trapped and till this day it haunts me, but i wasn’t going to l

You can’t just keep leaving me in the dark. At least tell me what you have planned.” Dani stated with strong words but it wasn’t going to work so i laughed. I laughed not at her but at the entire situation.“Don’t you get it Dani, if my father had Ava and your mother, there is no plan.

He was a man over six foot and had no bald hair, infact his grey hair was neatly styled on his head and the wrinkles on his face was highly controlled. His dark hazel eyes were electrifying that even as he stared at Arthur and I, i felt more to be of his target.“I’ve told you to call me Alex, son.” He replied and shook his hands with a small hug as though they’ve been friends for a long time.“Where is Patricia?” Arthur asked as Alex gaze shifted to me, he took my hand and placed a kiss to the back of them.“She’ll be here any mom-” A woman with Aubrun hair and dark red dress hurridely stepped outside.“Babe, i told you to wait for me.”“Our guest are here already, i didnt have to wait for you before attending to them but i’m sorry.

I could count the number of times Arthur was worried by something and he never lost his composure, but this time, it felt different. He was disturbed, and he didnt seem to have it under control.I had been so carried away by what I was seeing that I didn’t notice him slacking behind and now he had probably seen something that would cause his mood to be foul for the rest of the day.With guilt eating my stomach, I walked towards him with my brows furrowed. He raised his head just before I got to him and just like always he tried to hide it but it was too late.“Hey, is everything okay?”“I should be asking you that question,” I countered and his brows shut up.“What do you mean-““No lies Arthur, I saw your face, you saw something really unpleasant. What did you see?” He stared at me, either stunned to speak or trying to come up with an a

    Arthur POVShe was in my arms when i stirred awake, cuddled right next to me with her lips slightly parted. I had passed out on the couch with her resting on me and it was one of the best sleep I’ve had in weeks. Even though my legs hurt from not having a place to properly rest, it was worth it.My body had given out to the stress from the past couple of days and it was clear that i needed the rest. I checked the time on the wall and realized we still had four more hours until it was dawn, meaning two things. I either go back to sleep or i begin my day.“What are you thinking about?” She was awake. Her eyes were still closed making me wonder how she could tell.“How-”“Your heartbeat, it started racing few seconds ago-” she paid attention to the little things and it marvelled me.“Sorry if i disrupted your sleep.” I apologized as she sat up.“Its fine, are you okay?” She asked while brushing her hair carefully behind her ears.“Yes- its just two a.m. meaning you need to get more sleep

I was going to forgive them and move on just so i can get her back but she said that she didnt deserve to be with me, that she could do so much better, and that i was carried away with everything that had happened in the past and not focused on her.”“Arthur-”“I blame myself for it but it hurt after telling both of them seperately that i had started seeing a therapist already. It hurt because i trusted them so much, all jake did was gloat and after Juliet realized i wasn’t running after her like she imagined, she started running to me. Seeing her face was enough pain on its own, my mind always brought back the images of of the both of them- and the funny thing is that they did it in our room back in college-”“Arthur, I’m so sorry.” I muttered, it was horrible watching your best friend and girlfriend lie to you and betray you- my heart ached for Arthur.

I barely slept and all I did was stare at my door waiting for either my father to come through it and drag me out or my mother to hold me and tell me she was sorry for leaving me alone.” He admitted and I turned to him, he was playing with the strap of the silver watch on his wrist.“I also wanted to see Zachary come in through the doors and tell me that everything I had done was not my fault but it never happened. I blame myself for everything that happened between us- it's safe to say that we both need professional help.” He joked at the end but now that he mentioned it, it wouldn't be a bad idea.“It's not going to be bad.” My hands slipped to his and with a gentle squeeze he turned to me, with a smile. “So, mind telling me abo
