Davina's Pov:-"April," she said in a cute voice, I smiled at her and glanced at Coop who was smiling at her."You have a very good name, April" I complimented, she was so adorable with dimples, cheeks and beautiful eyes."Where are your parents, April," I asked and she just stared at me not answering my question, I looked around but there was no one around. I looked back at her and she shook her head while lowering her head.I didn't know what to do, I just turned around and walked back towards the entrance.***"What are you going to do now?" Bella asked looking at April, who was sitting on the couch and playing with Dulo.When I brought her here, she kept quiet, not even a word came out of her mouth, Bella tried hard to make her talk but she didn't say anything and kept staring at us. I get that she was scared as she doesn't know us, we were strangers to her but when Dulo walked to the living room hearing my voice I noticed a smile on her face.I took Dulo and placed him on her lap
Davina's Pov:-"What the hell is this, Davina?" He said, pressing every word and glaring at me hard. I gulped hard and tried to speak something, but no word was coming out of my mouth. I glanced at April to see her looking at Arthur, I turned back at Arthur, he was glaring at me."Arthur, I can explain..." I looked back at April, "...but not here," I said while pleading with my eyes. He still kept glaring at me, "Coop," He shouted, making me flinch at his tone and step back. I looked back at April and saw her lower her head and tears falling down her cheek.Oh god, she's scared!"Yes, Mr. Spencer," Coop walked into the living room and stood beside Arthur, facing him."Who let her inside my house?" He asked gritting his teeth and glaring at him, Coop glanced at me before opening his mouth to say, but before he could do that, "Answer me!" Arthur screamed in anger.I flinched in fear, and tears rolled in my eyes at his tone, "I did," I said while tears rolled down my cheek as I stared at
Davina's Pov:-I hate myself for being stuck in a situation where I could do nothing but cry, I hate myself for signing those damn contract papers and I hate Arthur for everything he did. I hate him from the bottom of my heart and I wish I never met him.If anything happens to April I will not be able to forgive myself, I have to find her, I can't handle the thought of something happening to her. I strolled towards the main door and walked out of the mansion. I looked around, but she was nowhere in my sight, "Oh god!" I said in frustration when I didn't find her in the garden.I began looking everywhere for her but couldn't find her, I bit my lower lip while pushing my hair back. "Where are you, April?" I asked and began strolling towards the main gate."Miss. Ellis," I heard Coop calling me from behind, I stopped and turned around to see him walking towards me hurriedly."We found her," He said while smiling in relief, I sighed in relief while tears rolled down my cheeks."Please tak
Davina's Pov:-Oh my god! Is this for real? Did he apologize to me? I blinked as I couldn't believe that he apologized to me. I was just staring at him while opening my mouth and closing it like a fish, I didn't know how to process this and before I could say something his lips crashed on mine.He kissed me softly, making my head lite and all those thoughts cut off with his one single action. My eyes rolled back and I found myself kissing him back, his hands resting on either side of my waist pulling me closer to him and deepening the kiss.He pulled back and stared into my eyes while breathing hard, I was just standing there with swollen lips and staring into his beautiful eyes. My eyes moved to his pink lips and all of a sudden they were so inviting that I couldn't take my eyes off his lips.Davina... What are you doing? My subconscious yelled in my head, making me snap back to reality.Look away from him, what the hell is wrong with you, control yourself...I blinked and closed my
Davina's Pov:-"What the hell," I muttered under my breath in pure annoyance, the file had five pages of rules and regulations and where she is allowed to go and where she was not allowed. My head spins while I read them, it's pure nonsense. He basically allowed her only to enter the living room, kitchen, my bedroom and hers, that's it and the garden, nowhere else. What's wrong with him? How can someone put these many ridiculous rules?She is not allowed to come in front of me when I come home? She is not allowed to roam around my room? She is not allowed to... bluh bluh bluh bluh!This is very childish, I have to talk to him about this, She's a kid for god sake and who puts these many rules she will feel suffocated by these rules and it would be impossible for her to live here. I have to ask him to change them, or at least reduce the number of rules. I sighed while turning the papers and sitting down on the couch, biting my lower lip in frustration.Although I know he hates kids but
It was dark now, I was sitting on the couch, reading the magazine while glancing at April who was playing with the doll that I bought for her earlier. She was peacefully playing with it. I heard footsteps and Arthur's voice coming from the main door. He was talking to someone in the phone while walking through the living room,"I need you to take care of it," he replied and hung up, his eyes landed on me and his legs stopped walking. He turned towards me and I watched his eyes move to April who was playing with her doll, I noticed his jaw clenching and his hands fisted in pure anger.I gulped hard while slowly getting up from the couch, he gave a Come-to-my-room look before turning around and walking away in anger.I swallowed hard while moving to April, "Stay here, I will be back, Okay?" I said to April while kissing her cheek, she nodded her head at me and went back to playing. I swallowed hard and made my way to Arthur's room.Stay calm, Davina and explain to him about her conditio
I stared at him while biting my lower lip in pain, I don't know what to say or react, the hate he had for me is confusing. I don't know why he hates me and why he is doing this to me. I never met him nor did I do anything to him then why? Why does he hate me so much? Whatever happened between him and Allen doesn't involve me! I had nothing to do with what he did! Then why me? Why?I took a deep breath trying to control myself, if he wants to punish me, then he has to tell me the reason for the punishment! Even if I'm his slave and he's my master, I have a right to know the reason why I'm getting the punishment.I looked at him, "Why?" I asked with a calm expression on my face, his eyebrows furrowed in confusion."You broke one of my rules?" he gritted his teeth while glaring at me,"Which rule?" I asked immediately, he clenched his jaw in anger."You have to follow whatever I say without asking questions! and... you didn't follow that.... The rules were clear, she shouldn't be out of
Davina's Pov:-"It's a long story," he said while looking into my eyes, still maintaining a serious expression. I just stared at him waiting patiently to tell me why he hates kids so much. Something must have surely happened, which made him hate kids.He took a deep breath, "I will make it short," he said and there was irritation in his voice.Maybe he hates remembering that, my subconscious said in my head.Probably! I replied."My mother held a big birthday party when I was 17 years old... and she invited every single friend of hers to the party..." he began and I tried hard to ignore our closeness and concentrate on what he was saying.Jesus! Why is it so difficult controlling myself when I'm this close to him...Arthur's Pov:-I hate that day, just remembering that event makes my body shiver in disgust. My hatred for kids has begun on that eventful night which I can never forget in my life. I stared at her beautiful baby brown eyes while I kept touching her soft and rosy cheek, ".
Arthur’s Pov:-I woke up feeling sun rays falling on my face, I tried to block it by hand. I blinked several times and looked at the sleeping beauty in my arms. Her naked skin was glittering under the sunrays.I watched her waking up and blinking her eyes, “Good morning,” I greeted while smiling down at her,“Good morning,” She greeted and stared at me with a smile on her face,“One sec,” I said and opened a drawer of the nightstand, I pulled the file out and opened it. I pulled the contract papers out and tore them in front of her eyes. “Let’s start fresh,” I said, She smiled at me and quickly I got up from the bed and lifted her, “Arthur,” She gasped,“I’m getting late… we need to shower,” I replied while walking to the bathroom,We brushed our teeth and stripped down our clothes and rushed inside the shower, I pressed her against the glass wall and claimed her lips. I moved my hands to her breasts and squeezed them hard,“Arthur,” She moaned,I moved my mouth to her erupted nipp
I chuckled and made my way to my room; I pushed the door open and walked straight to my bed. I laid her down carefully and pulled the blanket over her, I stared down at her and a smile appeared on my face. It feels good when you see someone waiting for you and being worried about you at home. I turned back and took a step forward; she grabbed my wrist. I got surprised and glanced back at her. She was sitting up while blinking rapidly,“Have you had your dinner?” She asked,“No, did you?” I asked,“No… I was waiting for you,” she said while getting up from the bed,Hearing her words something warm settled inside my chest and suddenly I felt guilty for not calling her and letting her know that I could be late.“I’m sorry… I should have informed you…” She cut me off,“Don’t say sorry… I knew you would have been busy,” she said while staring at my face,I smiled at her, “One sec… I’ll fresh up,”“Okay…” She smiled,***After I freshen up, I walked towards the dining table and saw her s
Davina’s Pov:- It has been 24 hours since we travelled back to New York, Nadia went back to her home and promised me that she would visit us every weekend. I realized that she wasn’t the person I thought she was, she had her reasons for her past behaviour. That night, she came to my room and told me everything. I understood her situation and decided to let it be in the past. As soon as we came back to the mansion, Arthur left for work and I was left alone with April. I showered her and fed her lunch. The whole day I played with her and read stories to her. I kept thinking about him, his words, and his actions in the past few days. What he said to his dad kept rushing to my mind all the time and I kept wondering whether he really loves me or he just said it. What if he really meant it? A question popped inside my head.No, he doesn’t… I assured myself and tried to stop thinking about it.***I was climbing down the stairs with April for dinner, I kept looking at the main door wonder
She let out a deep sigh, “For you!” She replied,“What?” I asked in confusion,“I kept quiet… because I couldn’t lose you…” She said while staring at my face, “When I noticed your father’s growing jealousy over Jordan… I tried to help him and make him understand that we should be happy with what we have instead of being jealous of someone but he didn’t listen to me…” she said with a sad face,“I was worried about him… What if he does something to Jordan out of jealousy? These kinds of questions made me worry about him all the time… and when I heard him talking to Samuel… happily telling him that Jordan is dead… I was terrified… I was shocked to see him turn into a monster… he was no longer the man I loved… I confronted him that what he did he wrong and I will inform this to police but he threatened me”“He said that he will kill you and me without thinking twice if I go to the police… and he would marry any woman and have an heir… he was so selfish and… I got scared… scared for your l
Davina’s Pov:- We were walking towards the main door, climbing the stairs. Cops arrested both Samuel and Andrew for what they did. Arthur told me that they couldn’t get out of jail for the rest of their life, he made sure of it. After a long day, we are back to our mansion. I never thought that a night would be this terrifying. I could not just get my head out from the fact of Andrew killing innocent people and no one ever suspected him. He killed 4 people, Olivia’s mom, dad, grandfather, and Allen. I was surprised that Nadia knew what Andrew was doing and was upset about it but couldn’t do anything. He must have threatened her not to open her mouth, it can explain why she kept quiet. Above this, I could see how much she loves Arthur. Even though he hated her for what she did, she never stopped loving him. Now that’s called mother’s love, even though we do things that hurt them badly they will never hate us. Arthur is lucky to have a mother like her, who chose her child instead of
Davina’s Pov:-“I killed them because I wanted to make a future for you…” he said while staring at Arthur,“No… you did that for yourself… your jealousy blinded you and made you kill him and his entire family…” Arthur yelled,“Where was Olivia when this accident happened?” I asked,“She was with us… Arthur wanted her to a sleepover and they left her with us,” Nadia replied,“If you wanted to kill Jordan and his entire family… then why did you leave Oliva behind?” I asked, diverting the topic so that Arthur could calm down,“Because if I kill Oliva… we would lose billions of dollars and millions worth of properties….” He replied,“What?” I exclaimed in shock,“After Emmanuel’s death… The lawyer explained his will… which said that everything he earned and Jordan earned would get to Olivia… before all that could happen, I made sure no one knows about this will while I took over all the companies and made them as ours… changed the names and completely turned them as ours,” Andrew said,“N
Davina’s Pov:- We were now in the office where they held Samuel, earlier. They moved Samuel behind the bars with solid charges and proof. Last night after whatever happened, Arthur didn’t leave my side for even a second, it was hard for all of us to sleep. What shocked me was, Arthur’s mom saved me from Andrew. She never liked me and always tried to insult me, I never expected that she would one day save me from her own husband. It was surprising not only for me but also for Arthur. I was thankful for Nadia, before going back to my room I thanked her and she just smiled at me. The whole night Arthur was with me and April, we didn’t speak to each other even though we slept beside each other. What he said to his dad in pure rage kept flashing in front of my eyes and I couldn’t stop myself from wondering why he said that? Was It True? Does he love me for real?When I glance at him, those words ring in my ear and a blush appears on my face automatically.“Because I love her,” he said w
Arthur’s Pov:- What the hell is happening here? Why is dad trying to kill her? Jesus Christ!“Arthur,” Davina called with tears running down her eyes, “Dad, What are you doing?” I yelled in helplessness, “I should have done this in the first place…” he gritted his teeth in pure anger, he looked like an animal. He was no longer the man I knew, I loved my whole life. He had this look on his face that wanted blood, it screamed who he had been all this time. He wrapped his arm around Davina’s neck and was tightening his hand as I took a step closer to him, Davina was struggling to breathe and I couldn’t see it. I quickly pulled the gun out and pointed it at him, “Leave her, dad!” I warned, Hearing my warning he let out a chuckle, “You! You’ll kill me?” he laughed, “For this bitch,” he said while tightening his hold around her neck. “Dad, Leave her…” I ordered, “You know how good I’m at firing,” I said, “Yeah… I know how good you are… That’s why I’m so proud of you my son,” he s
Arthur’s pov:- I stared at him in shock, That person was one of us? Who might it be? I thought while staring at him in surprise. “Who is it?” I asked, “I can not tell you that,” he said while turning his head away from me. “Why?” I yelled, “If you know who did that why can’t you tell me,” I screamed, “I can’t…” he shouted, “If I tell you…. the next second my wife would be dead and there wouldn’t be any proof left to find him,” he revealed, “What!” I replied in shock, “What do you mean?” I asked, “My wife would be dead… if I tell who that person is!” He replied,I stared at him in confusion, He let out a sigh and lowered his head, “You don’t know anything about this… Arthur… this isn’t a normal matter as you think…this is something dangerous and many lives are involved in this,” he said, “Do you think it is safe for Davina to keep that Sd card with her and getting involved in this?” He was the one who stole it? I stared at him, not knowing what to say. “Yes, I stole it fr
