Bianca's POVI woke up to the faint glow of sunlight filtering through the curtains. Gideon’s arm was draped over me protectively, his even breathing letting me know he was still fast asleep. I tried to shift carefully, not wanting to wake him, but as I moved, his hold tightened slightly.“Good morning,” he murmured groggily, his voice warm and soothing.“Morning,” I replied softly, brushing a hand against his.“Did you sleep okay?” he asked, his eyes still closed.“Yeah, I did.” That was a lie, of course. I hadn’t slept much at all, my thoughts tormenting me the entire night.He opened his eyes and smiled, planting a gentle kiss on my forehead. “I’ll make breakfast. Stay here and rest a little longer, okay?”I nodded, watching him as he got up and headed for the kitchen. Once the door closed behind him, I sat up, my head spinning. I needed to make a decision, and I needed to make it fast.This secret I was carrying—it was suffocating me. But every time I thought about telling Gideon
Gideon's POV "Face what alone?" I thought to myself, refusing to think of anything in particular."They must have been talking about business," I said to myself before letting out a long sigh, knowing what I needed to do.I needed to run a quick test on myself because I didn't know what to call this anymore, Damn! What the hell is wrong with me? What was really gotten to this? Stalking Bianca, that was really uncalled for!I got into my car and headed straight home.I walked up to my room and then opened my wardrobe for something to wear,I quickly changed into a casual pants and shirt before leaving my closet.Then I noticed that Bianca's closet door was not properly closed.As I was about to shut the door properly, my eyes fell on how scattered the closet was. I walked into the closet, noticing the thousands of things on the ground,I started to put everything in place, I knew of how bianca could be when she's on her period and it's so pathetic how the cleaner never makes sure thi
Bianca's POVAs Charles walked towards the direction of the exit door, I finally snapped out of my day dream. I only imagined all that had happened. "Would charles really act like that?" I thought to myself. I wanted to call him to stay back because I haven't said what was in my mind but as I recalled what I had imagined, I couldn't even open my lips to speak, not to talk of calling his nameInstead of talking, I was beating around the bush, playing with words.He left before I clutched my fingers so tightly. It almost seemed as if the moment he left was the moment the confidence to talk came.I knew exactly where he was heading from here so I decided to follow him.I used the napkin on the desk to clean my hands before walking out of the restaurant.I immediately hailed for a taxi and it took me straight to his house,After paying the driver, I got down from the car and headed straight towards the direction of front door.I rang the bell and waited for a response but got none,I kn
Bianca's POV I cleared my throat before clutching my fingers together, refusing to listen to let a single word he says to manipulate me get to me.I bite my lips and swallowed hard, "Don't call me like that! Trust me, I'm not going to listen.... You've always had your way Charles, I guess it's like I start having my way," I said and swallowed hard and left the house, not stopping anymore.As soon as I knew that I was out of his sight, I briskly walked towards the road because I didn't want to stand anywhere that Charles could see me.I increased my pace until I got where I could hail for a taxi. I got into the taxi and it took me straight home. Tears steamed down my eyes, I didn't know what to say or what I was thinking. What does Charles possibly want me to do now. He says he wants me to keep the baby but I don't know if that would be a good idea.I bite my lips as I walked into the front yard of the house. My eyes fell on Gideon's car, my heart immediately arched. I mean, I knew t
Bianca's POV"Yeah, I'm done but I'm feeling really tired," I said and closed my eyes before trying to be calm."Okay honey, why don't I prepare a hot bath for you to relax? Does that not sound nice to you?" Gideon asked and I nodded my head in agreement.Gideon picked me from the bed, carrying me up to my the room. He dropped me on the bed and hurried into the room."You bath is ready love," He said and pucked me up from the bed again before taking me to the shower, after placing me in the bath, letting the water wash over me,"Thank you," I said. This was something that Charles had hardly done for me.He always loved doing me dirty in bed while Gideon has always been loving to me. I fell in love with Charles so deeply and I just couldn't fall out of love. Each time and almost every time, I'm always thinking about him."For what?" Gideon asked."For always taking care of me?" I said in a low voice,"It's my duty to take care of you, I love you so much Bianca and I can do anything for
Bianca's POV As I watched Gideon exit the room, tears welled up in my eyes. I was both heartbroken and disheartened. His words made my heart arch so badly, I walked towards my vanity, in search of any sharp object. I couldn't find any, I just wanted to hurt myself and feel pain in other places of my body. The pain on my chest was just too much to bear."What is wrong with me," The tears fell down from her cheeks as she spoke to herself."I let pleasure ruin my life." I said, trying very hard not to recall the day I had sex with Charles in the bar, the night before my wedding, letting one night of fun ruin the rest of my life.I made a mistake that I couldn't correct. I took my hand up to my forehead and gritted my teeth in anger before saying calmly,"How can I make this right?"The thought of going to Charles crossed my mind but yhay was going to be a mistake. I needed to find all means possible to save my home. A home where I had no ounce of love for Gideon.I only still cared so
Bianca's POV "Hush," Gideon said, putting his finger between my lips.He immediately pulled me in again for another kiss causing my heart to twirl. Noah slipped his hand into my pant and then ripped it off my butt before saying in a low voice,"I'll get you another one," I bite my lips because his voice sent shivers down my spine. I didn't know what to say at this point because I desperately wanted him to just take over.He brought his hand up to my hips and then slowly took them up until it got to my breasts. He cupped my boobs and used his finger to play with my nipples causing me to chuckle softly."Please stop," I begged because it was becoming unbearable for me."Beg me even more," He said causing me to growl before closing my eyes, letting the feeling sink in,"Please Gideon," I begged causing Gideon to spank my ass before asking,"Is this how you beg? By calling my time?" Gideon asked."What should I say?" I moaned."Call me your daddy," He said. I chuckled at his words but
Bianca's POV I growled on the bed, feeling so hungry. I tried bearing it but it didn't work.I sat up on the bed, thinking that if I could drink some water then I would feel better but it didn't work. I gulped the water down my throat and gritted my teeth in anger before laying back on the bed.My forehead was hurting, apparently, the water that I drank didn't help reduce the hunger. I bite my lips and climbed down from the bed before exiting the room. I exited the room and headed to the kitchen.My stomach growled as I immediately dished some food out of the food in the pot. I wondered why they haven't turned the food out from the pot into a cooler so that it could be stored in the fridge.After dishing some food out from the pot, I immediately poured in some juice for myself before starting to eat.I sat there when I heard footsteps approaching the kitchen, I bite my lips, patiently waiting for the person at the other end of the door to walk in. It could either be the cook or Noah
Bianca's POVOne month later.One month had passed, and we still hadn't talked to Gideon for a while now.Gideon left the country after the whole incident and came back three days ago.I hoped not to see him around soon because I didn't know how to possibly face him.Meanwhile, aside from that, everything else was going quite fine. I didn't resume work at Charles' company; rather, I became my own boss back at my art gallery.Charles and I had a court wedding a week after I divorced Gideon, and ever since, he has been treating me right. I have had no reason to complain."Hey honey, what do you think about having lunch at Rizzo Restaurant?" Charles asked as he straightened his tie on his neck."That sounds nice. I don't see anything wrong with it," I said, and Charles leaned closer to me and kissed my forehead."Okay, hon, I'll pick you up by 6," he said before taking his phone and walking out of the room.I sat on the bed for a while. The pregnancy hormones were making me feel so lazy.
Bianca's POVI nudged Charles, signaling that he should drop me down.He did so. I froze, not knowing what to say or do.Gideon chuckled and shook his head."I'll have your bags brought to you, Bianca," he said, acting like he didn't want to talk things out."Brother," Charles stepped forward.Gideon paused and raised an eyebrow. "Brother?""You've got nerves, all of it! I can't believe that you have the guts to call me your brother when you stabbed me countless times. You're so unbelievable," Gideon said.He still couldn't process the number of things that had happened in these past few days.I stepped forward, not knowing why, but I felt it was the right thing to do at the moment. "I want to say thank you for everything that you did. I mean, I'm more than grateful, and I'm sorry that...""You don't have to. Get going already. I feel more disappointed that I was dumb and blinded all this while. Do you know how much I trusted you?" he asked, causing me to swallow hard.I knew he trust
Bianca's POV Immediately after he ended the call, I turned to Charles, who heard everything.The divorce agreement was back at the house, I was silent for a while before finally opening my mouth to speak, "Tomorrow, I'll go over to the house to sign the divorce agreement." I lay on the bed, closing my eyes, trying to sleep.This was really want I've always wanted, to be with Charles with no guilt."I'm sorry honey," Charles said, caressing my shoulder."Sorry for what?" I asked, but he didn't say anything. The night was quite long. The next morning, I got ready, and Charles had to take the whole day off.We headed straight to Gideon's penthouse, and I signed the divorce agreement. This was the only reason why he hadn't come to his house to sleep.I gave him a call, but he didn't answer.Charles couldn't stop caressing my shoulder like he needed support.Gideon finally answered the call, having been called for the fifth time."Have you signed the papers?" That was the first thing he a
Gideon's povI was trying to settle down in the hotel room but nothing felt like home. My heart was racing and at the same time, I was worried of how Bianca would feel snd how she was doing.Why should I even care about her? Did she care for me? Did she care hoe I'll feel when she went ahead to fuck someone else, oh my God, scratch that!She didn't go to just any body, she went to my brother to get her pregnant.After the cleaner at the house came to me to inform me about what she had seen, I was turned.She doesn't sleep at the house with us, she only comes to clean and she noticed something as explicit as that, not once but twice.I still couldn't fathom any of it, where had I gone wrong exactly.After she told me about what she noticed her brother and wife doing, I was forced to keep an eye because I didn't want to believe her didn't mean that I had forgotten about it.I needed to be sure that I didn't call the lady a liar in vain.At the same, I was wondering why she hasn't told me
Bianca's POVI didn't have to turn to know who was standing by the door."What is going on here? Charles, I thought you promised me," Elsie's voice filled the entire room.I stepped back, unable to even gaze at her. The shame and disgrace written all over my face were alarming."What are you doing here? Haven't we talked about this? You're supposed to inform me before coming to my office," Charles said.The aura in the office had changed, and I felt beads of sweat forming on my forehead. I was already feeling so tired and grumpy because of my pregnancy, so I decided to walk to the chair next to me."What are you trying to do, Bianca? You know I've known about this for quite some time now, but there’s been no evidence. Was this the reason why you decided to start working as his assistant, pretending that you'd love to do a white-collar job?" Elsie asked, but I was silent.She had all the right to yell, but not at me. At the same time, I didn’t mind."Hey, Bianca. Stop pointing at her.
Bianca's POVI was dumbfounded as I watched him walk out of the room and yet had nothing to say.I wanted to go after him, but I just remained on the spot.This was the least thing that I expected. Although I planned on issuing a divorce agreement to him out of guilt, I was still contemplating it and was only 60 percent sure that it was going to be my move.Running out of the room after finally being able to move a limb, I started to wonder where Gideon had gone."Where's my husband?" The word "husband" was heavy on my lips. The realization that I still felt part of Gideon's life hit me so much.Maybe if I had issued the divorce, it wouldn't have hurt this much. I would have been prepared to face everything, but I didn't think I was prepared now.He was not in the house, so I decided to give him a call, but my call ended up getting declined."Where are you?" I asked."I'm crashing in a hotel for a few days. I don't think I can stay in the house with you. Sign the divorce agreement, th
Bianca's POV "You say it like you have any choice," she said, sounding very rude. I went to sit with the others, my body feeling pain almost all over. I checked my phone every minute and hour to see if I received any call or text, but I didn't. seconds turned into minutes, and I was getting tired of waiting. I decided to ask his secretary if she had any idea of where he would be at the moment or when he would come. If I had access to my system in any way, I would have been able to know his schedule for today, but unfortunately, I no longer work here, so there's no way that I could know. "Hey, do you know where he went? Or perhaps, is he in a meeting?" I asked. "He's in his office," she informed nonchalantly, without even gazing at me. "Wait, what? Charles has been in his office?" I asked, surprised. It was very normal that Charles hadn't responded to me until now because whenever he is in his office, he is always busy and doesn't have any time for his office. "Yes," she respond
Bianca's POVAs if luck was on my side today, Dr. Ryan stepped out of her office with her bag. She immediately spotted me, looking so distressed."Hello... Bianca," she remembered my name."Do you have an appointment with me today?" she asked, but I shook my head before saying,"I don't, but please, if you don't mind... I'd love to treat you to lunch so we can have a conversation.""I like how you put it. A conversation," she smiled."Why not? Let's go.""I don't have my car, though, if you don't mind us using a taxi," I said."Do not worry, we can take my car."We got to the parking lot of the institute. I hopped into her car, and then she drove toward a restaurant.When we got there, I got out of the car and we both walked into the restaurant.I must admit that Dr. Ryan has good taste. I didn't know a place like this existed in the city."This place is cozy; you must really like cozy places," I said.She nodded. I recalled that yesterday in her office, she informed me that the reaso
Bianca's POV I waited for Charles's message as I slowly ate the food in front of me. Regardless of how dizzy I felt, I still ate the food sluggishly. Unfortunately, I waited in vain because I got no response from Charles. I was too scared or perhaps guilty to go back to the room, so I decided to crash on the couch in the sitting room. Closing my eyes, I fell asleep immediately. I didn't do much work today at the office, and yet I was feeling too tired that I fell asleep the moment my body hit the bed. I opened my eyes, feeling pressed. I walked toward the bedroom, not wanting to use another toilet. I got into the room only to see that Charles was no longer on the bed, making me wonder where he went. Not pondering much on the matter, I walked toward the restroom and was about to open the door when I heard the shower running. Holy molly! Gideon was in the restroom. I quickly checked the time and realized that it was past 6 already. I didn't bother to go out of the room; rather, I
