Adira's hands trembled with anxiety as she clasped the test strip in her quivering grasp. Alone in the bathroom, her heart pounded in net chest, its rhythm echoing through the silence.She never thought she'd be so nervous with a pregnancy test. The first time she had been pregnant - Lancelot - carrying out the test was the happiest thing for her. And when it came out positive, she could never forget just how limitless her joy had been.But this - this right here was different.She inhaled a lungful of air and finally inserted it inside of her. Her anxiety increased, her legs had gotten cold.She watched with wavering breath, not knowing when to expect. Not until the big positive signed popped up on it."Oh, my God..." She grazed her fingers over her mouth to stifle her gasp.Her heart summersaulted in her chest, the entire place rotated in her head.She lost balance and helped herself to sit on the toilet surface before she'd reach for the floor. Shaky breaths left her chest, and her

Adira was bewildered. Who the hell was that, and why was he sounding like he could see her at the moment? Nikolai was distracted, checking out some male outfits. "Listen, I don't know who you are, but it's obvious you're joking. So, I'm hanging up." "I wouldn't do that, if I were you." The voice stopped her. "I mean, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't want to see a bullet go through Nikolai's head right now. It would be awful seeing his white shirt get soaked in blood." Adira froze instantly. Her eyes became so wide like they'd fall out of her sockets. She looked around frantically, but the galleria was too big with hundreds of people in it. "Are you insane?" She gritted. "What stupid game are you trying to play? You expect me to believe you'd shoot a man like Nikolai here in public? If that happens, you should know you're never getting out of here alive." "I know. I know his guards are there with you at the moment. But trust me, they won't be fast enough to stop or shield him before

Adira's eyes expanded like saucers, betraying her astonishment. Was this a joke?For a moment, she was dumbstruck and just watched him approach her, a wry smile on his lips."What is the meaning of this?" She finally found her words, her eyes holding so much disbelief. "You... you're the one behind this?"Lancelot shrugged, slipping his hands into his trouser pockets."You look shocked. Aren't you happy to see me?" His words dripped with sarcasm.Adira was losing her mind. The whole thing sounded insane. The whole time, she thought it was someone deadly, but it was actually Lancelot?Hold on, Lancelot had every right to be deadly, considering what she did to him. But he'll never...do something drastic, will he?She snaked her fingers into her hair and looked at him. "Look, I don't know what you have running through your mind, but trust me, this is a mistake. Le me go, and I promise I won't say a word. We can act like this whole shit didn't happen."Lancelot's lips curved in a smile. H

Nikolai was perched on the edge of the bed, his head lowered and his figure hunched. His posture was far from relaxed.There was shattered pieces of glass on the floor, and a crimson pool of spilled wine. An air of despair enveloped the room.Something was wrong - Adira noticed. Nikolai wasn't looking good.She closed the door behind her, but stood far from him."N... Nikolai?" She called carefully.He lifted his head slowly and looked at her. That moment, Adira's skin prickled with fear at the look in his eyes. What?"You're coming from your father's place, huh?" His voice was dangerously low. "Your father's sick, and you're coming from his place?"His eyes were inflamed and reddened, the sight of them alone frightened Adira.His tone... he sounded suspicious. Was he aware of her encounter with Lancelot already? Did Lancelot tell him? But why? How?Nikolai stood up with his phone, advancing towards her. She found herself taking a reflexive step back. At that point, she didn't know wh

Adira ran out of the house, her heart threatening to explode in her chest. She panted heavily, fighting so hard to steady her breaths. But no matter how hard she tried, it was useless.The car keys was still with her. So, she returned to the car she had driven in with, and with shaky hands, drove out of the compound.Her cheeks became the canvas for tears as she navigated down the road. She never thought it was possible to feel such amount of pain. At that moment, she felt as though, she had been stabbed on a spot that could never be healed.Her vision became too blurry, and finally, she screeched to an abrupt halt by the side of the road. She bent her head on the steering and wept profusely. Her heart was aching too much, she wasn't sure she could survive it.'I thought you were different. Decent. I may have watched you for a long time, but I definitely missed this part of you,' Nikolai's words haunted her."No..." Her body convulsed with wrenching cries.Her hand crawled up to her t

Adira woke up to the smell of something nice filling the house. Her brows tightened as she looked up at the unfamiliar ceiling, trying to collect memories of what had happened the previous night.Yes, she was drunk, Jared had come in, and...she couldn't remember anything else. She blacked out.She shifted her eyes from the ceiling, casting a glance around the room. And her heart quickened when she noticed she was in a strange place.Good lord! She sat up quickly, and the force she had used made her head ache. She obviously had too much to drink.She rubbed her hand on her forehead, then stood up slowly and wandered out of the bedroom she was in. Why did she have a feeling Jared was responsible for this?She walked into the living room which was just outside the bedroom, and there she found Jared, bringing a platter of pancakes into the small dining. He had an apron on and had pearls of sweats on his forehead. It was just like she suspected."Hey. You're up." He flashed a smile, seemin

Adira found it extremely boring staying alone in the hotel. She couldn't make it to the office as she wasn't in the right frame of mind to work, and she didn't have any friends to call over either. She felt so depressed, alone and exhausted.She had thrown up twice that morning, and her head wouldn't stop banging. The pregnancy symptoms were getting serious.When it was evening, she tried calling Lancelot, but like the first time, his line was switched off. Did the bastard intentionally dump his phone just to ignore her? Well, he should keep doing that for as long as he could, because she was never going to stop trying.She was too enraged, she decided to go over to his house and meet him instead. Perhaps, if she could get him to talk while secretly putting it on record, it could serve as an evidence that he had really set her up. That way, she'd be able to get Nikolai back and also get the bastard arrested.Making use of her car, she drove straight to his house, her hands gripping th
