Zayden's POVI had a long day at work today. My work has increased ten folds now that I have new clients, new ideas that I want to work on before the year runs out. Ever since the award night, I have always signed a new deal almost every week. I now have a personal assistant because of the workload. My personal assistant and the secretary now help me in reducing the loads of work I have to work on every week before the arrival of new ones.I know I need a vacation but I can't go on one now. I have a lot to cover before then. I am also planning on launching my new innovative skill next week in Los Angeles. I have employed new workers for innovative ideas and they are really helping. I am also partnering with Madeline's steel manufacturing Industry and I have established a car company in Boston.I release my tie the moment I get out of the car. I heave a sigh of relief for being home after a long day. I am a bit early today unlike the other days of the week. I have been getting home ve
Belle's POVNow I know how heartless Zayden is. He isn't even considering my condition. I know he is cold and arrogant but I never knew he is also heartless. I am doing all of this for his mother, I wouldn't be doing this if it is of my own free will.Zayden wants me to hate my baby but I won't. I just can't wait to get the baby out so I can get my life back.His mother came visiting and she asked me to take good care of her son. She advised me to be patient with him but I am losing my patience. Zayden is a wicked soul and I can't take it anymore. I thought starting up a conversation with him today will be a great way to kickstart a new chapter of our lives. I asked the maids to retire to bed early, giving me a chance to make his meals. I am disappointed and I doubt if I can take this anymore. I don't think I can stick to the promise I made to his mother if he continues behaving this way.I stand waiting, lost in thought till he finished taking his bath. When he comes out of the bat
Belle's POVI have two fathers? How is that even possible? How can I have two fathers? One of them has to be my biological father.I couldn't wait for the next day to get my answers so I went out to the car after leaving Zayden in his room. I am fucking pissed at him. I was already in my pajamas when he arrived and I didn't bother to go change before coming here. Mother is in a straight skirt with a maroon peplum top. I sit with numbness staring at her but her sob jerks me out of my reverie. A tear trickles down her eyes and I find myself unable to ask her why I have two fathers. My head is blank and I can't seem to find an answer to the question myself. Instead of answers, more questions were arising. Is it possible for two men to father a child? Was my mother cheating on my father? Was she dishonest with him? How did she end up with two men in her life?I am looking into space with more questions coming up, making it difficult for me to reach any conclusion. I believe my mother
SIX MONTHS LATERZayden's POVI get out of the Ferrari after parking in the driveway. It is past 9 pm already and I am damn tired. I left work early today because I feel I need to rest so I won't end up sick.I have been working hard these past few days and I am already considering a vacation soon, with my baby Lily. She is two months old.I take long strides toward the house with my briefcase while losing my tie with my right hand. I exhale deeply when the tie is off and my phone rings Immediately.It is Richard and I wonder why he is calling me this late."Congratulations to the jack of all trades", he screams."Jack of all trade?" I furrow my brows in confusion.I have no idea what the idiot is talking about. He always call at the wrong time, either when I am too tired of his drama or when he wants to tease me about something and I will end up telling him to shut the f**k up."Yeah, master of none", he chuckles. I feel like punching him for making such a silly joke. I am tempted t
Damien's POVI flutter my eyes open when I feel the sudden seeping of sunlight into my room. The flash is directly on my face and I know someone is behind it. As soon as I adjust my eyes to the bright light, Paige drops a large file on my bed, almost slapping my face.I glare at her as she stands with arms akimbo. I yawn loudly and sit upright, laying my head on the headboard. I wonder what is wrong now. Last week, we fought because of the girl I had sex with in the club.We fight almost every week, she is either accusing me of being unfaithful or complaining that I am not giving her enough attention. She loves nagging and I have threatened her with a divorce when she does that again.I married her for a reason, not because I really wanted a wife and now that I have achieved my aim, I don't even like her no matter how sexy she tries to look. I am tired of her and getting pleasure from some other woman is what I want."Why did you wake me up?" I question her with eyes closed and my hea
Belle's POVI am in deep shit, I mutter inwardly, as I increase my pace, trying to run away from the bitch. I thought she had gone into hiding when I didn't see her after the award night but I got to know I was wrong when she came to the mansion to look for me after Lily's birth. I didn't allow the maids to let her in and here she is again.I never knew she works here too, I wouldn't have come looking for Tony. He asked me to come so we could grab lunch together. Since Lily was asleep in the nanny's room and I was bored being at home, I decided to come over to his work so we could talk and eat at the company's cafeteria.Something beautiful is already springing up between Tony and me and I am damn scared this bitch will ruin it. I am less concerned about Zayden getting to know, my fear is Tony. I haven't been able to summon up the courage to tell him I am married to a man I don't love. I haven't been able to tell him about my baby. He hasn't asked me either and I hope he doesn't ever
Evelyn's POVI am broke, I say to myself as I come down from the cab. I don't know why Zayden is doing this to me after I had forgiven him for all he did to me when we first met. I thought we are now a family since my daughter is his wife but I am wrong. I have exhausted all the money in my saving to begin the establishment of my restaurant because Zayden isn't helping me like I thought he would.If I had known this would be the end of it, I wouldn't have stopped working for Pamela's father. I didn't want to stop but I did anyway because of Belle and Pam's happiness. I miss working there a lot and anytime I remember the kiss that changed everything, I can't stop myself from smiling. When I am sad and alone, it keeps me company and makes me feel special. I didn't plan for it to happen but it did anyway. But I never thought it would linger in my mind for this long.Today, I am not smiling after remembering the kiss. I am not happy. I thought I would be but I am not. Things aren't goin
Zayden's POVIt's been so long since I came to a bar. Richard rarely comes out these days as he used to in the past. I really have no idea if what I discussed with Pamela on my birthday is what is making Richard serious now or if it is because Richard has decided to become a responsible man.I sit silently, sipping my drink and thinking about the information I got from Tessa. I wish I didn't see the picture, it keeps flashing in my mind, even when I close my eyes. I don't want to be angry but I can't help it. I was distracted and I had to leave work so I could calm my nerves. I wish Richard is here with me. I tried his number but It wasn't connecting.It's been so long since I last felt this disturbed. This disturbance is stopping me from working and I don't want it.I wonder who the guy is and where they know each other from. Is he her ex-boyfriend? Are they back together? Does he know about me and her baby? I can't find answers to the questions. I sigh and take a gulp from my drin
