My brows furrowed, feeling clueless about what they were talking about. "About what?""About the winter collection next month. Did you not know? Sir Matteo, Miss Tan, and Mrs. Russo will pick a new collection for the event and fewer will get approval. I failed last time but I will do it this coming
NIKOLAIMy day was ruined because I kept calling Camilla's number but she never even picked up the phone. After what happened last night, she's avoiding me and fled the house this morning without anyone's knowledge, except Miko.Yeah, I admit, it was my fault. I just cannot stop myself when I stare
I can clearly hear his frustration through his tons of missed calls when I got back to my table."I'm busy at work, s-so don't blame me." I gulped because at first, I intended to ignore his calls, especially this morning when I arrived in the office."Busy huh, giggling like a lunatic to some bastar
CAMILLAMy sweat was dripping down my neck while working in the garden with Henry and Mia under the sun beating down relentlessly. I took a deep breath and used the towel around my neck to wipe the sweat covering my eyes.It's Sunday, so no work for me and Nikolai at the company. He was having fun w
"What's wrong with you? Stop taking part in cleaning the house." He said as he put a clean towel on my head.But I ignored his scolding. "You're letting Miko call you Daddy in front of other people?" I already warned him not to let the other people hear them talking like a father and son."I'm his
CAMILLAMatteo arrived before lunch, so he felt at home to feed himself while Nikolai and Miko were having their lunch also. I already had my lunch with Mia. Even though the two grown-ups are not talking to each other, I can feel the atmosphere becoming lighter than in the cafeteria last time.I'm c
Seriously?"You--""I have a favor to ask." He cut my words off but this time, he was somewhat hesitant to tell me while scratching the back of his neck."W-What?" I gulp at his gestures.What is he planning now? What favor?My pulse was beating frantically as I never heard him ask a favor before. H
CAMILLAI was astonished seeing them in the open public as they were both dressed casually in matching outfits, and they both had sunglasses on.I tugged Miko and Nikolai into the corner while being aware of our surroundings."What are you two doing here?" I snarled.Nikolai is a high-profile person
CAMILLAI tied my hair as I made my way downstairs. Nikolai had already left for work while Miko and Mika were having a summer vacation. Miko just turned 25 last month, and my Mikaela will turn 18 next week. I'm thankful that she's not a spoiled brat and just wants to have a simple birthday with he
CAMILLAHis tongue invaded my mouth as it was struggling to find mine. I clung to his neck to find my balance while his hands reached my ass, squeezing them, which made me groan at the sensual pain I felt.I cling my right leg to his waist as I tiptoe to match his height. And devour his mouth again.
CAMILLAWhen I was sure that Mikaela was fully asleep in my arms, I slowly placed her down on the baby crib. I only sigh in relief that I'm finally free when I exit the room. I called Linda to watch over Mikaela inside our room while I was preparing dinner for us.Five months have passed, and everyt
CAMILLAMy whole body was aching. I couldn't move an inch, or maybe I just didn't have enough power to move my fingers or toes. I groaned as I opened my eyes, and the light coming from the window glistened in my eyes. Wait… what happened? I remember that I dashed out of the hospital. Am I back here
AUBREYI know what he's thinking. So I abruptly avoided his eyes. “Are you nuts? Of course not. It's been months since we– I'm going home.”I was about to walk away in embarrassment, but he pulled my hand, and we both walked to his car. “I'll take you home.”The whole ride was too damn awkward. I do
AUBREY I just got out of the Galileo when Van called me to meet in the cafe near the company to discuss something. As usual, I only attended important meetings before leaving work after lunch. Camilla is not in good condition right now. She's giving birth any moment now, and Nikolai hasn't found i
CAMILLAMy heart pounded frantically upon hearing the statement of these people. “What? No… no! Please! Find my husband!” I exclaimed as I tried to get off the bed carefully.“We have to conclude that he may have been eaten or drowned at the bottom of the sea, which was difficult to search that vas
“Are you really ba-back?”I sobbed when he nodded again, and I immediately wrapped my arms around him.His warmth, his breathing, and his touch were all so real. He's wearing a tuxedo like he usually wore at work with disheveled hair and tiring eyes. Did he experience something terrible wherever he
CAMILLADays have passed, and they still haven't gotten anything. I was frustrated to the point that I wanted to question the search and rescue team if they were doing their job properly or not. Cole already talked and pointed to Carson as the mastermind in putting a bomb on Nikolai's plane. Hearin
