Chapter 7

His heart ceased to function for a second as his world came to an abrupt end. Shit! This wasn't supposed to happen. What happened to all his hard work, and time invested in his Company? Will he watch silently as everything slipped to Mark's hand when he did not deserve it?

This was worst than a nightmare. His optimistic self crumbled. He turned in despair to cast one last forlorn look at the door.

A figure walked in with an astonishing, beautiful smile, dressed on a white flowing gown, behind her were unfamiliar faces.

Her heart palpitated wildly with each steps she took. She was certain every one could hear her heart accelerating yet she couldn't halt it. So she put up a smile seeing a panick Daniel on the altar sweating profusely. Such a jerky bastard! Must be scared out of his wit, thinking he had been ditched. Patricia smiled.

The thought of ditching him had never crossed her mind, but she was glad that he thought so. Approaching him, she could see his eyes widened fro

    Chapter 8Bastard! Embarrassed, Daniel excused himself from Patricia's presence, leaving her to accept congratulatory messages from her friends and well wishers. "I hope you are happy now!" "Congratulation son. You had a woman all this well but refused to settle down!" Graham reprehended. He still didn't believe Daniel, but he had no choice than to accept it. Besides, they were now married which meant, a grandchild sooner than he anticipated. After the passionate kiss he witnessed, Graham was sure of being a grandfather. A light smile crept on his face. Surprised, Daniel stared at him, speculating what changed his mind, feeding him with such absurd idea."Why did you say so?""I am not blind young man!" He snarled.Not like I said you were blind. Daniel mentally retorted with a scoff. Hands folded, Graham furrowed his brow and said prosaically, "I observed the intense passion you both shared during that kiss. You both had your heart in mouth." Daniel smiled. They must have acte

    Chapter 9What the heck! Was he insane? Who the hell was this bastard speaking trash behind the phone. Furious, Mark took the phone away from his ears for a moment. Glancing at it, he sighed. Probably a wrong identity. Submerging his fury, Mark spoke in a soft voice. "Look, I don't know you. So I believe, this is a wrong identity. Please kindly recheck the number you just dialed. Thanks Gee!"There was a pregnant silent at the other end. A silent that made Mark presumed the anonymous caller was gone but then his voice broke the silence."I know what I am saying because, unfortunately, you are my biologically son. All your life, you grew up believing Graham to be your father, but in truth, Graham isn't your father. Melissa isn't your mother either.""And that makes me what? A bastard?" Mark snarled, sitting upright. This was the worst news he had ever received. "No, that makes you a parasite, feeding on other people's charity. I am ready to welcome you back home where you truly belon

    Chapter 10Gosh! What sort of a fucking temptation was this? Daniel's gaze met with Patricia who gave him a 'you're dead' kinda look. Shit! The clock ticked, silently announcing each passing seconds. "I am still waiting to see my grandchild receive a kiss from his dad." Graham reminded, sitting on the couch across them. Patricia's eyes darted to everywhere except at Daniel. The glint in her eyes was suspicious as she stared at Graham for a moment. Holding her waist, Patricia shrieked. "My waist! Oh gosh! Somebody help me!" Worried, Graham rushed towards her. He placed his hands to support her waist while Daniel stared at the melo drama. What was Patricia up to? "Can you get your ass here! Stop standing like a monument!" Graham bellowed while casting a malicious glared at Daniel. Grudgingly, Daniel supported Patricia to the couch. She secretly smiled at him when Graham was not watching. "My stomach hurt so badly." She whined, groaning in pains. "Why are you not helping her in a

    Chapter 11Sitting in his office with loads of document waiting patiently for his attention. Daniel's stomach growled, a reminded of a missed breakfast. Glancing at the wall clock, he sighed. It was already two in the afternoon. Yet he had no solid food in his stomach. He couldn't blamed his stomach for throwing an hissing fit. It had been patient enough, all thanks to Patricia. How in hell did he get such a lady for a contracted marriage. Dylan. Dylan insinuated it, mapped it out but he was the one facing its repercussion. As if on cue, the door creak and opened, revealing the presence of his least expected person. Dylan - speak of the devil. He had a huge grin on as though he just won a jack pot or trophy. "What's up with this forlorn hope?" Dylan enquired, depositing his ass on the swivel chair opposite Daniel. "You are a married man and yet you are already looking like someone who lost his wife." He teased with a smile. "Gee, Patricia is fire! I swear man, I have no peace o

With his master keys, he unlocked the car door, bugged it with the driver's phone before slamming the car door shut. He took few steps away from the car, keenly looking around for any prying eyes. Satisfied, he rubbed his hands on his shirt with a grinned. "Mission Accomplished!" ***The only available flight back to Arizona was the 0800 flight which she dreaded taking. It was either that or wait for another three days. Something she couldn't afford to do. Grudgingly, Janie dragged her suitcase with her to the check point. "Five minute to go!" The flight attendant announced. She was on nothing other than a Black khaki short and a tan crop top which didn't match with her environment,making her the odd one out. The constant glanced she received from passerby didn't in any way succeeded in faltering her steps or making

    Chapter 14Fredrick Josh smirked as he watched Mark's expression on his laptop from the living room. He heard every conversation Mark had with Daniel and he saw how excited he was. But his happiness will be short lived, that he was certain. If Mark won't take his advice and confront Graham, then he won't ever know happiness for as long as he breath. His identity was truly hidden from the public. No one knew him by the name Fredrick Josh but rather by a different name. No matter what he does, it was never going to be linked to him. He was extra careful, leaving no traces behind. Fredrick's eyes narrowed. Graham had bitten more than he could choose and he needed to pay the price for it.

    Chapter 55Daniel unconsciously gasped. His heart palpitated as anger took control of his mortality. Fury blazed from his eyes, with his fist clenched. Fuck the bastard! He needed to put an end to this insanity! The motherfucker perturbing their peace needed to be caught and heavily charged for assault and infringement of privacy. "I need more details," Daniel coldly urged. His eyes scanned the garage for any suspicious movement and intruder. Satisfied with the result, his gaze drifted back to Mark, who remained stoic in his postured. "The bastard this time sent a bitch I had a fling with." Mark admitted, his pride wounded. His gaze fixed on Daniel, he knew his thought. Obviously, the 'I told you to cut off with this loose women, see where it landed you' expression was what he expected to see, but he was wrong. "The lady had access to my home."This wasn't a time to cast blame, but a time to conjure a solution and ways to reprehend the bastard responsible for harassing and more. "I a

    Chapter 54Surely, his eyes were deceiving him. Daniel speculated. Kate stiffened at her spot. Oh god! She clutched her heart, trying to stop it from accelerating. How in the hell did that happen? She blinked repeatedly, unsure of how to handle the situation. Breath in! Breath out. No one would know what transpired. Her subconscious mind warned. Exactly, there was no way in hell for Graham or Mark to know she was caught having a nefarious intention with Kim. Kate could vowed Daniel didn't know what transpired on that fateful night. He had only caught a glimpse of her, nothing to warrant any suspicious attitude bestowed towards her. "Hi, it's nice meeting you." She smiled, extending her soft palm for a friendly handshake. He knew what game she was playing by the partial twitch in her eyes. The light smile that didn't touch her hazel eyes. The swift way her body quickly relaxed with a faux composure that needed a little questioningly. Surely, Kate thought Daniel was either dumb or d

    Chapter 53Abort? Patricia's ears itched as she drew closer. Her eyes glittered brightly. Definitely, something was wrong with Daniel. Patricia concluded with certainty. Hot tears flowed freely and silently down her cheeks as she gazed at him. His heart shattered at Patricia's tears. He had not meant to sound harsh but the action of his brutality couldn't be revoke at that point. It was too late. The twinge of regret further fueled his guilt. Swallowing back the lump in his throat, Daniel tried reaching out to Patricia. His last vow felt like an empty promise as he gazed into Patricia's face, watching helplessly as she sobbed."Look, I didn't mean to say that. I mean, I am glad that you are pregnant for me." Hell! Was he glad? Granting Graham's wish felt like a huge feat but here he was thinking of aborting. What in hell name propelled him to blurt out such outrageous statement? There knowledge of Patricia's betrayal. The knowledge of Patricia's identity. That was the force behind h

    Chapter 52Daniel stopped dead on his track. His ears twitched at her words. His eyes unconsciously glanced at the wall clock - two thirty am. A sigh escaped his buccal cavity. Damn it! All reservation and composure seemed to have vanished into the silent night at that moment."Are you seriously serious?" Daniel turned back to Patricia with a blanched look accompanied by a concealed hatred. "Yeah." Patricia fluttered her eyelashes as she pouted, unconsciously caressing her little baby bump. "It's not really my fault. It's the baby's fault. She seemed to love food like her father." She winked teasingly. Daniel felt his heart raced at her statement. His lips arched to have a taste of her despite his hatred. Daniel's eyes travelled down her body covered with the silky night dress that was transparent and offered a lot to one's imagination. If not for the information he received, Daniel was certain he wouldn't have hesitated in tearing off Patricia's cloth, feasting first on her pink ni

    Chapter 51Clock tickling away in the far side of the room. Patricia stirred, still soundly asleep. Her hands searched for him. Her eyes shut opened, alarmed. She sat upright, pulling the duvet up, Patricia glanced at the wall clock. It was still two am. Where could he be? She speculated, stepping a feet out of the bed to check on him. As though on cue, he sighed alerting Patricia of his presence. Trailing the direction of the voice, Patricia followed till it led her directly to the couch. A figure sprawled on the couch with a pillow beneath him. Patricia stared at him. Her hands moved gently over his cheeks, caressing him softly. His eyes shut opened at her touch. The coldness that met her gaze paralysed her heart. "Hi.." Patricia muttered cooly. "I didn't see you on the bed so I was wondering where you were but then I caught you. What happened? Why are you here and not on the bed?" Daniel's mind flicked back to the details he received. Patricia was Melissa's murderer daughter. B

He wasn't sure if he could stemmed the hatred and hurt boiling from the depth of his stomach. Unaware of the quick changed in Daniel, Patricia moved away from him. "I will just arranged my things back." She began replacing the cloth in the closet. "I can't believe we are making this work. I mean you have always hated me right from the onset and now we are not just married. We will be expecting our first baby." Folding the silk gown into the box, Patricia gazed up. "What should we call her if it's a girl?" Daniel remained quiet. Assimilating the news he just received. His body still tensed with an incredulous expression as his heart failed to come in term with the message. His phone was still on his left hand as he kept staring into space. "Hey Hubby!" Patricia called, displeased by his silence. She threw a p

    Chapter 49Patricia's world crumpled right before her eyes. She had not expected this from him. How did it happened? What about her? What become her fate? Patricia should never have fallen for him. She should never have entertained pleasure when on duty and now the repercussion of her actions was glaring right back at her. Damn it! The confidence she felt earlier dissolved like a candle wax. Determined to conceal her emotions, Patricia fixed her gaze on him oblivious to the fact that he wasn't through with his confession. Her cool composure, faux to his keen eyes. "Over the days and weeks that I met her, she has become my world. I do not want to hurt her because I love the bitchy lady so much that it hurt right here," Daniel clutched to his heart. "I can't afford to let her go."The passionate way he laid out his heart forced tears to welled up in Patricia's eyes. The unrequited love hurt. It hurt her heart dearly.

    Chapter 48The ringing of the door jolted Patricia from her reverie, thirty minute after Daniel's departure. Different thought clouded her mind as she gazed from the wall clock to the door. Her face contorted in disapproval. Her blanch eyes calculated the distance between the door and the couch she was seated. The laziness that descended upon her had everything to do with her illness and nothing to do with simple etiquette. Sighing, Patricia pushed her tired body forward, slowly making her way to unbolt the door. A figure stood by the door, dressed in a black pant and a yellow shirt with a black cover-shoe. A lab coat laid fittingly on his shirt. A stethoscope hung proudly around his neck. His cologne filled her nostrils.Patricia unconsciously shut her eyes as she inhaled deeply his cologne.Smiling at her action, "Hello, I am Doctor Richard, your husband's Doctor. I got a call to run some test on you." Patricia snapped her eyes opened at his words. She knew he was a doctor but had

    Chapter 47Holy cow! Daniel stepped back as though back slapped. He unconsciously perceived himself. The smell of Eau de filled his nostrils. He sighed. There must be something wrong with Patricia. He concluded. It wasn't funny neither was it normal. "Since you don't want me around. I reckon, it's a call to be excused."Patricia frowned, gently rising on her feet. She wrinkled her nose in disgust. "Yeah. Go away lest I puke out my intestine. Please call the doctor for me. I might die any moment from now." Watching his receding figure, Patricia sighed. She stared at her reflection on the mirror. "Ah!" She shrieked. "I look so horrible. How do I intend making Daniel fall for me when I look like a lunatic straight out from a psychiatric hospital." Her face gloomed as image of Janie flashed into her mind. Daniel would never love someone like her. Janie was his spec. His type. The sophisticated lady he loved dating. Janie was tall, beautiful with a sexy body. The dream and wishes of eve
