“So you said Violet is coming to pick you up?” King asked Laura again for better clarity.

The night had been a long one for King, working on different documents non stop and taking several calls. But here he was, barely day break already headed out of the house.

Laura had escorted him to the car, and currently they were both leaning on the car as King held her waist to him.

Laura tipped on her toe and gave him a kiss on the lips. Pouting with an upside down smile before replying “Yes! For the Zillonth time.”

Violet had called Laura the previous day to invite her for a friend’s bridal shower happening down town. It didn’t sound like a request though, it was more of a ‘you owe me one’ call. Laura had agreed and they made plans to go together.

She tried to pull away from him but he stole another kiss. “Andre can always take you with any of the cars, bring you back. And get to watch over you. Hmmm?” He tried to reason.

She tilted her head slightly to the right as if just noticing somet

The clickbait in their posts irked him terribly.How low could they go!King was going to let it slide until he came across a page that aimed at tarnishing Laura’s image. The heading read:“A former house keeper would now have to deal with an abusive husband?” That heading alone had him riled up. He scrolled through the other posts and he wished he never did! The paparazzi clearly painted him as a monster that was against his sister’s happiness. Different opinions about Karl and Anne being love birds.

    They say revenge is a dish best served cold, but Stephanie Pearson preferred hers steaming hot with a side dessert of sizzling chaos. And oh, she was starving.Stephanie’s crimson nails lightly scratched the silk fabric of her blouse as she stood in front of her floor-length mirror, her reflection staring back at her like an old friend with a knowing smirk. She wasn’t dressed for anything fancy—just a casual crop top and ripped jeans—but that didn’t matter. What mattered was the way her hand instinctively drifted to her stomach.“That foolish Laura,” she muttered, cocking her head to the side, her freckled nose wrinkling in displeasure. “Thinks she can have Kingston all to herself? Oh, honey. No can do.”Her reflection grinned back at her, she was the version of herself she had grown to love over the past few months. She couldn’t help but let out a soft chuckle—no, that chuckle was psychotic, if heard closely. “How does she even sleep at night?” Stephanie continued, her high-pitched v

    Kingston knew well how to control himself. Everything and every aspect in his life was organized, even down to the way he poured his whiskey. But as he found himself pressing Laura against the bedroom wall, his lips teasing hers with the kind of hunger that could ruin a person, all that control? Out the window.“King…” Laura whispered, her voice breathless, her lips swollen from his warm kisses.“Say it again,” he murmured, his mouth trailing down her jawline, his hands sliding beneath her dress, sending passionate heat on her skin.“King,” she repeated, her tone pleading this time.And that was all he needed.Neither of them remembered how they had made it to the bedroom or when her dress landed on the floor like a forgotten piece of memory. His shirt joined the pile, his tie long gone, and Laura’s delicate lingerie soon followed, leaving her body bare under the soft glow of the bedside lamp.“Lie down,” he commanded, his voice low and rough, yet filled with the only softness he had

    Kingston McGorrith was not the kind of man you would expect to see juggling shareholder documents with baby-shopping plans at the back of his mind, but here he was, sitting at his mahogany desk, scrolling through spreadsheets like his life depended on it. And maybe it did. Between managing his multi-billion-dollar empire and making sure his pregnant wife was happy, this man was booked, busy, and his borderline was completely burned out.His office was quiet except for the sound coming from the faint hum of the air conditioner and the occasional ping of his phone. His assistant had just dropped off the finalized documents for Laura’s announcement as a shareholder, and King had to admit—it felt so unreal. Laura wasn’t just the mother of his unborn child; she was about to become part of his business, his legacy. The thought made him smile that rare but genuine smile that softened his usually sharp facial features.“Everything looks solid,” Brian said, leaning back in his chair as he flip

    King barely made it through the front door before Laura was already up from the couch, her eyes lighting up as she reached for him. “Rough day?” she asked softly, her fingers sliding to loosen the silk tie he hadn’t even bothered to straighten properly.King groaned, tossing his briefcase to the floor like it had personally offended him. “Rough doesn’t even cover it.” He shrugged off his blazer, running a hand down his face. “Anne is missing.”Laura’s hands froze midway through loosening the tie as her brows arched up. “Wait. What?”“She’s been unreachable since earlier today. Her phone’s dead, no sign of her anywhere,” he muttered, his tone sharp, but the worry was still evident in his voice. “She tried calling once, but it didn’t even last a second before the line went dead.”“Oh my God,” Laura whispered, stepping closer. “Have you called the cops? Tracked her phone?”King sighed as he tugged off his tie completely, the veins in his neck bulging from frustration. “We tried. Marshall

    “Hey, have you heard from Anne?” Greg asked as he barged into King’s office without knocking, his voice tight with concern.King didn't bother looking up from his laptop, his expression bored. “No, she’s avoiding us. And to teach her a lesson, I blocked all her credit cards. Let her sweat a little.”Greg blinked twice, clearly thrown aback as his brows knitted together. “Okay, first of all, bold move. Second, she texted me earlier saying she was back in the country and asked me to pick her up soon. That doesn’t sound like someone who’s avoiding us.”King froze for a second, his fingers hovering over the keyboard lightly. The calm expression on his face began to crack slightly. “What are you saying? Are you kidding?”“I’m dead serious. She said she'd call again when she was ready. But now, nothing. I’ve tried calling her, but she isn’t answering. That's… not Anne.” Greg muttered, his tone dipping into worry.King leaned back in his chair, rolling his eyes until his gaze shifted to the

    Back in the rest room, Maddie was trying to calm down an inconsolable Laura. Not only had Stephanie left her stunned, but the talk about sending a message? What message?Why exactly was she there. “Madds you needed to see the smug look on her face!” Laura exclaimed as she adjusted herself to step out. Maddie first replied with a scoff. “I mean, I wouldn’t expect less from that cunning woman.” She hissed.“Uhhh.. wait.. do you think I should call King? Yes! I need to call him.” Laura bit her lips, staring back at her reflection in the mirror.“No lu… I think we should get you home this minute. “ Maddie gave a short laugh, dragging Laura by the arm.
