Happy daysAva woke up and felt better although she was not her usual self. Ethan had called later that night telling Lady Penelope to have her rested. " Please tell her to focus on her health and forget work for now," Ethan said over the phone.Lady Penelope was glad. She thanked him and promised to relay the message to his daughter. She went to her room and found her awake. "How are you feeling honey?" she asked " Much better," Ava said smiling. " I thought Ethan was here?" she queried her mum. " He left already." Lady Penelope replied.Ava got better over time and resumed back to work. Ethan tried making up for his mistakes but Ava shut him out most of the time. "Can we talk?" Ethan asked during lunch hour. He was feeling really bad and wanted to make up for what he had done. Ava knew too. She just wanted to make him more sober. But he was sober enough. " sure." she replied They went to the garden and talked at Lent. " I didn't mean to make you sad honey. It was just a fling wit

She drove like a maniac and headed for the duke's palace. Derek's men chase after her.Ava quickly took her phone and called Ethan. " They are after me. Some men in black are chasing me." Ava said with a scared voice." Where are you?" Ethan asked again. ''Am heading toward the palace,'' Ava replied Ethan heard that she was driving. He ran out of the house with his helmet.

Attack on the palaceVictoria was short of words and didn't know what to say. She was about to speak when Derek's call came in. "Thank God," she said quietly and moved away from Erhan to pick up his call." What is it? " Victoria said silently, not wanting Ethan to hear what she was saying. " We need to talk. I need the blueprint of the palace." Derek said. " You are kidding, right? How do you expect me to get that? " Victoria said out loud.Ethan looked at her and said, "We have to go now." he looked at her and knew she was hiding something from him. " Let me call you back," she said and hung up the call.Victoria drove behind Ethan and as she drove she thought of how to get what Derek asked of her. " This is impossible. How do I get that?" she kept asking herself. They entered the palace. Ava rushed out to greet Ethan but was surprised to see Victoria. She stood still looking at her and asked Erhan "What is she doing here?" Ava said, waiting for a reply. " Well, she came to check up
Failed mission The bomb kept ticking. Victoria came out of the car and ran towards the van. She looked at Mason who was lying unconscious on the floor. She checked the van and saw Derek lying unconscious too " This is the second time I will be saving him." she said looking exhausted from carrying him. She was about to put him in the car when Mason held onto her feet. " Who the hell are you?" he groaned as he spoke. Before he could look up to get a proper view of who he is talking to. Victoria hit him hard on the head, sending him to sleep.Victoria was about to zoom off when she looked at him. He was near the van. If the bomb goes off. he would die on the spot. So, Victoria dragged him a bit away from the van. She entered her car and zoomed off with Derek. The bomb explodes after causing a burn on Mason's arm. He yelled and was unconscious again.He was later carried to a hospital to be taken care of.The duke did not see Mason and assumed he was dead. " He is a brave man and will fo
The schemeVictoria thought hard." What if my plan failed and didn't work out? I need to come up with something that would make Ethan forget about the engagement. She laughed after some time and picked up her phone. She dialed Ethan's number. "Can we talk? I have got something to tell you," she said " It better be good," Ethan said as he got off his bed trying to get dressed. " I will be with you in a few minutes," he said and hung up the call. He headed down to Victoria's house and saw her with a brown envelope. " it is for you, your highness." she gave it to him.Ethan opened the envelope only to find a letter stating that Victoria was pregnant. He looked at her "You are kidding right?" with a serious face. He collapsed into the chair holding the letter in his hands with disbelief. " We can check at the hospital to proof am right honey," Victoria said more convincingly. Ethan looked up at her and didn't know what to say. He was sweating and his look showed that he was scared. It w

" How do I get a strand of his hair?" she said out loudHer phone rang again and she quickly picked it up. " Hello, how can I help you?" she asked over the phone. There were a few minutes of silence before the speaker spoke." Is this Miss Victoria Harrington?" the speaker asked her. " Yes, please who a I speaking with?" she askedThe line went off before she could ask another question. She was baffled and scared. " Who the hell is that? And why won't he answer my question?" She looked puzzled.Ethan went up to Ava's room. He looked at her and said " I know you are still mad at me. But I can fix this. I can fix us." he said looking at Ava who was looking out through the window. " There is nothing to fix Ethan. She is pregnant and you are the father of the child.

She knew she would have been able to have it been she wasn't pregnant with his child. She closed her eyes and sob gently. She was now heavy and would be given birth anytime soon. She wished she was the one living the life Ava was living at the moment. She then wiped her tears " I would make sure I get back at them for this." Oliver and Isabella had a lot of fun. They played some truth or dare trying to know some hidden truth about themselves. Finally, the party came to an end.

She said looking at themIsabella went out of the room to have her cloth changed. She also needs to dress for her kids. Lady Penelope called the servants to help Ava dress up.

A love that trancsends timeIt was a beautiful Friday morning. Oliver and Ethan woke up early. They woke up early trying to get prepared for the occasion which was to take place the following day. " I need to go pick up my suit," he told Oliver." Can I come along?" I also need to get some things on the way. They both head out of the palace. Ethan went for his suit while Oliver got the things he wanted. They were about to head back when Ethan said he wanted to see Ava. " you can't wait till tomorrow huh?" Oliver looked at him smiling." I just need to see her and we are off," Ethan replied They drove down to the Sinclair mansion. It was the first time Oliver was there. He was surprised to see an expansive mansion. It had a stunning sight to behold, with its towering columns, sweeping staircase, and numerous balconies.Oliver was surprised and didn't know Ava's parents were rich. He had thought they were at the bottom of the social classes. He looked at Ethan and said, " You didn't t
Love nest"We are both fine," Ava replied smiling The doctor ran some tests and told her everything was well with her. She went to check on her long-time friend Tilda. They had been friends right back from school days. But Tilda had to leave the country to study. She is now a medical doctor. She had just gotten back into the country when she called Ava to let her know she was around. Ava promised to come to see her but couldn't due to what we were going through. " Hy friend. Will you be home? I will be with you shortly." she said over the phone " Of course desire. I will be expecting you." Tilda replied Ava went directly to Tilda's home from the hospital.

The melody of loveVictoria couldn't sleep she rolled on the bed thinking of what to do. The duke had called and told her she should grave him with her present tomorrow. She was scared. She didn't know what he would say to her. She prepared herself mentally for whatever question that might be asked of her.She felt hot and went out of bed to take a shower. She was having a sleepless night. She thought hard and hope Ava had not revealed her dirty secrets. " But who would believe her?" she thought to herself as she showeredShe went to bed and finally slept off.The chirping of the birds woke her up. She opened the Louvre and the sun came in. She looked at her phone and saw Ethan's missed calls. " why is he bothering me this early in the morning?" she said without looking at the wall clock in front of her. She finally looked at it and gasp. It was 10 am. "Dear lord!" she exclaimed. She called Ethan back telling him she would be with him in some hours times. She hurriedly took her bath
