The following day, Gerald paced back and forth outside the Hamilton residence. He had to talk to Desiree, and he had no choice but to wait for her here. He didn't know how her parents would react if he went inside, and he didn't want to risk it either.“Good morning, Alan.” Desiree greeted the secur

I didn't know that he's the husband of your cousin, Marlene. Damian just told me last night. I'm sorry about the thi
“I have an appointment with your boss.” Gerald said as he stared down at Desiree's secretary.She looked up at him, her face hard as she opened her mouth. He could see that she wanted to say something, probably comment about how he barged in yesterday without permission.The look Gerald gave her at

“Gerald Butler, how many times must I tell you that it would be rude to just leave our own reception before it's over?”*“Ugh, but I'm dying to make love to you,”* Gerald groaned again. “I can't wait for our wedding night. The things I plan to do to you.”His eyes brightened with lust. “Do you want

They hugged, and as her mother continued to cry, Desiree couldn't help her own tears.“Okay, let me call Hugo in now,” Desiree said after wiping her tears when they pulled back from the hug.Her mother smiled nervously as Desiree opened the door and ushered a now fully dressed Hugo into the room.“D

“Desiree Hamilton, would you like to be my wife once again?" Desiree felt like her heart was going to explode. With tears burning her eyes, she answered, "No."Gerald’s eyes widened as panic flashed through them. “No? As in you don't want to marry me? But why? Did I do something wrong? I…”“I’m onl
