"I am Skye Monticello's secret from you. And you, Xander Nicolo, are her secret to me" Xander explains. After staring at him for a long time, Nico nods. He understands what he means. "But please don't blame your Mama. It's half my fault why she has to keep me a secret" Xander readily added. "Why it's your fault?" He whispers, confusion written on his face. "She fears the life I will give you. She fears the vast world as a Wright heir. She thought you would be scared" Xander bitterly smiles. Today, he starts to realize the impact of being a Wright heir. Seeing their son made him understand why Skye kept their son a secret. And he wished he hadn't found out. "I won't be scared" Nico assures him but he just bitterly smiles at him. With his reaction, Nico earnestly stares at his face, seeming to be gauging him. "You dont want me?" Nico's next question caught him off-guard. Even the others were stunned by the pain in his voice. "What?" For a moment Xander was dumbstruck. "Nico, bu

She is fully convinced she is having hallucinations. She could see her son running towards her and it was preposterous. Nico is at the farm across the globe from there. In the countryside far from the city. She has been strongly convincing herself but the thundering beat of her heart is threatening her rib cage. "Mama, you're here! You're finished with work now?" Nico stops in front of her, raising his arms to her like he used to. "How's work, Mama? Papa and I have been waiting for you. He said you're busy" The boy added while she remained astounded. How could she convince herself that he is just a hallucination if he is flesh and bone while expectantly staring at her? "Mama, you look so beautiful. It's okay to be beautiful. Papa is here now to protect you" No matter how she denies it, the boy with the nonstop chattering is her son. "Mama my arms are getting tired" He even reminded her of his raised arms. "Mr. Simon? Is there a child in front of me?" Still unconvinced of what s

"Don't worry, Skye. I have no plans to introduce you as Nicolo's mother. He will just be my son. No one will know about your connection to him"His words pierced her heart as she gasped in utter disbelief. What he said was exactly what she wanted but hearing it from him unexpectedly hurts her. For a moment she was rendered speechless while their gazes lock. "Ahm, of course" After clearing her constricted throat, she mumbles with a smile. If it comes out bitter, she can no longer control it. She was taken aback and the pain in her chest was drilling deeply."I'm just giving you what you wanted, Skye. You dont want to be associated with me. You want a peaceful life. Then it's granted" he mutters while intently staring at her."Yes," The only word she could muster to say. "Whatever setup we have will remain, of course with Nico as an addition. The guest room of the penthouse is being remodeled at the moment. You take care of him at home. But you cannot interact with him in public" he a

Today is an extraordinary day for WGC. Employees are all scampering towards the lobby early in the morning. The CEO arrives with a mini version of himself and the tiny figure beside him is wearing the same color of business suit and tie. However, employees were not only mesmerized by their perfectly paired outfits. They were left speechless seeing the face of the tiny figure. A spitting image of their handsome CEO. With a mere glance at their faces, anyone could tell their association. And with such an obvious fact, disbelief inundates the early morning of WGC. If the CEO boldly wears hickeys as evidence of his private affairs, this time he brings his offspring."The CEO has a son?""Has the CEO gotten married? When?"Everyone softly grumbles in pure disbelief as they all gape at the small figure who is trying to keep up with the wide strides of his father."Papa, they are all staring at me" Although he looks collected, Nico sounds anxious when he speaks."They are just surprised

"Miss Skye is so beautiful, right Papa?" Nicolo suddenly asks his father.The atmosphere suddenly tense while Skye was horrified. What is Nico doing? They never discussed it last night about having an interaction in public. Together with everyone, she dreadfully waited for Xander's response."There's a lot of equally beautiful ladies in the company, buddy" Xander shrugs and gives his rare smile to his son.Hearing the safe response of the CEO, most of the aspirants were appeased. Anyone could still have a chance. Despite having the boy's favor just now, Skye Monticello was not guaranteed of the CEO's interest. If everyone was relieved by Xander's response, Skye on the other hand almost glared at him. How dare he? Has he been considering someone else? Yes, she's amenable a lot of women in the company have exceptional beauty, even Director Cameron is beautiful and classy, but does he have to rub it in her face?If not for the eyes watching them, she could have confronted him. His wor

It's almost midnight and only the soft steady breath of the naked figure next to him accompanies him to his loneliness. "Hah..." Another deep breath. But it didn't even lessen the aching need between his legs. His body is fully awake and it's getting frustrating. He turned to his side and he was met by Skye's sweet breath. Contrary to his predicament, she has been peacefully asleep for several hours now. Mentally groaning, he turns to face her. Will she not mind if he tries to make a pass on her while she's asleep? But on second thought, he can't. "I didn't say you're not beautiful" he pouts while trying to peek under the cover. And he immediately regrets doing it. Skye's flawless pearly white skin torments his already troubled peace."I will just hold you. I won't do anything stupid" he whispers while carefully pulling her into his arms. If he can't make love with her, at least he can hold her while they sleep.It was past midnight when exhaustion won over his sinful desire. And

Hickeys? Does she have hickeys?She subtly glances outside but Xander is no longer on the spot she left him. How dare he mark her. Now she understands why he was rushing her earlier. He didn't give her time to check herself in the mirror. "I never expect you to have such a wild side, Miss Monticello. You're so candid for wearing some man's mark in the office and you didn't even bother to cover it" Another insulting statement from the director, which she was not in the mood to indulge. But she has no choice."Well, there's a lot of interesting things in my life that no one knows, Director Cameron. I'm immensely enjoying and I don't mind wearing this mark. As what it implies, I've enjoyed the time it was made" she casually smiles while keeping her calm. "Shameless" a disdained smile carved Shella's lips. Rather than be triggered, she gave the woman the sweetest smile she could muster. "Have a great day ahead, Director" She immediately steps outside after she reaches her floor. The

As expected, Skye Monticello became the hot topic in the entire company. Aside from her wearing hickeys, the news about the heir's intention of courting her for his father and the breakfast she had with the father and son spreads like wildfire. "You're a scheming bitch" Skye was surprised when Nathalie appeared from nowhere, cornering her in the empty hallway. She was peacefully walking back to the Marketing department from her meeting with the technical team. "What do you want Miss Nathalie?" Undeterred by the woman's obnoxious expression, she calmly asks. "You're very cunning. Using the child to lure his father. Hats off to you, Miss Monticello" With pure mockery, she coldly mutters. She just raised a brow while meeting her sharp gaze. Honestly, she doesn't know how to respond to her. Indeed, words travel fast in this company. "What did you do to get the boy's favor? What evil scheme did you do?" Nathalie glares, trying to intimidate her. But she was unbothered. "Miss Nathali

(Flashback Chapter) She almost ran to the restroom upon spotting one. She has been holding her pee for just several minutes but the fullness of her bladder seems to be on the verge of bursting. She's only sixteen weeks pregnant but her constant trip to the restroom is quite a hassle. "Hah! At last" Her contented smile and a loud sigh of relief echo in the stillness of the cubicle after she relieved herself. She quickly washed her hands and went out. "Let's get back, Madame?" Luis's voice startled her when she got out. The man standing at the very entrance of the restroom. "You scared the hell out of me Luis" Clutching her chest, she incredulously raves. "Sir Xander strictly ordered not to lose sight of you, Madame. He will kill me if I lose you here"Scratching his head, he explains. "I won't be lost inside the restroom" Rolling her eyes, she walked past him. He closely followed behind while his other men, wearing casual clothes like him, discreetly rounded her spot. They are o

"CEO Wright, what can you say about the decision of Azure 42 to stop racing?" They are walking toward their vehicle to go home but media people follow them around. During the awarding, Azure 42 declared her retirement from racing. Even he was surprised by her decision but it was a relief for him and the entire family. However, his wife's declaration is a surprise to the racing community and they have been trying to get his insights. Earlier, his mother fainted with the discovery of the real identity of Azure 42. After Kiera took off the headgear, Lexie paled upon seeing the racer's face. Like a lighted candle, she melted on her seat. Thankfully, Lucien has been holding her, it deters her fall. Lissie was also dumbfounded, she wasn't responsive for several moments. It was a surprise his mother and sister obviously did not enjoy at all. "My wife has said what she has to say. She will focus on our family" he patiently explains while holding Kiera's hand. She had showered and now wea

"Mr. CEO, the CEO of DL Freedom Group of Companies has arrived" Collins entered."Just in time" Glancing at his watch, he mumbles. "The press is already settled" Collins added. "Good" After gathering the document on his table, he stands up. Today, the Wright Group of Companies will seal a business venture with the two companies under the DL Freedom Group of Companies through a contract signing and press conference."Are they comfortable in the waiting area?" He asks while handing the documents to Collins."Yes, sir. Snacks are served while they wait" Collins nods and smiles before they head out of the door."Perfect" Satisfied, he smiles. But before he stepped out of the door, his expression shifted to his usual icy and enigmatic demeanor. Before they reached the elevator, their legal team and another three of his staff followed behind, including Nathalie who remained as one of the CEO's secretaries.

"You may kiss your bride" The new Governor announced and loud applause from the massive crowd followed.With the streak of tangerine of the setting sun, painted in the sky, he cups her face for a brief yet soulful kiss. It was like their first time to kiss that both were unwilling to release each other. If not for the clearing of throats from their families, they would definitely deepen the duel. "I present to you, our newly married couple, Mr. and Mrs. Xander Voulker Wright" Wide tearful smiles adorned the faces of the entire family. Even the serious-looking men on the opposite side of the aisle are wiping the sides of their eyes. The Di Lauro brothers. Amidst the hoots and jovial applause from all their guests and families, their foreheads remain plastered together as they hug each other. It was a festivity in the entire Dharma, the marriage of the only heiress of the Di Lauro family. However, guests do not wear expensive tuxedos or elegant dresses. Contrary to the luxury the

"Care for a drink?" A glass of sweating pineapple juice is slowly placed in front of her. Staring at the thirst quencher treat, a smile carves her pink lips, bare of any lip color. "Pineapple juice? Really?" She snickers as she scoffs. "The safest offering" The man casually shrugs after settling next to her at the bar counter. "Do you think this can earn my interest?" She sneers, glancing at the man before her eyes return to stare at the sweating glass. "I don't need the drink to earn your interest, I already have it. It's just a freebie" he winks, making her incredulous. "Cocky" She scoffs. "I saw how your eyes linger" He took a sip from his glass with a smile lingering on his lips. "Well, I appreciate magnificence when I see it" She dismissingly shrugs. "Exactly" He smirks, glancing at her. Realizing she wouldn't win against him, she took a sip of his offering while shaking her head. For a while, no one speaks. They contented themselves consuming their drinks and watching

"Do you think I will approve of it, Kiera Azure? You and the Di Lauro heirs' place are here in Dharma""Grandpa" Skye tried to beg but her old man averted his gaze to the kneeling men on the ground. "Dismiss" One word and the governor together with his entire entourage scrambled on their feet to leave. Some of them run toward Darvid and his friends to help them to the vehicle. Shortly after, the yard is empty of visitors. Men, rounding the clearing earlier start to leave, giving the family privacy."Are you not tired of roaming the world, Kiera?" After a while of empty silence, Tonino turns to ask."I'm staying for good, Grandpa. I will stay wherever Xander brings me and our children. That is where my place is" She tenderly smiles while begging him with her eyes. "Dharma is for you and your children. Why should you want to be somewhere else other than here? This is your home" her grandfather mutters. "With due respect, sir. A wife's home is with her husband" Xander seriously poin

"Let's go. Let's see what the Governor's purpose for his visit" With eager curiosity in his voice, Tonino continues walking. This time his steps are quicker than earlier. Xander promptly follows. He believes Skye will not be harmed in her territory, but the presence of the father of Skye's suitor is unsettling in his peace. They were almost brisk walking and he was surprised when the old man held onto his arm for support. It was a long path and with his age though he is stronger than those his age, it drained his strength. With the old man's arrogance, he chose not to show a reaction. Growing up, they have been surrounded by proud elders. He is already aware of how fragile their pride is. While pushing the cart, he tries to keep up with the old man's pace. It took them a while to reach the front yard where the Di Lauro men, led by Vittorio Di Lauro were already gathered. Skye is nowhere around to his relief. Seeing the grim faces of everyone, he could tell a standoff might happen

"The man who could end your life anytime soon" The clicking of the pen randomly distracts the silence that fell upon the massive receiving room of the Di Lauro mansion. "What did you say?" With a deathly stare, Darvid turned and made a step toward where Xander was standing. "I hate repeating myself" Xander shrugs while he remains leaning on the wall. "End my life, you say?" Snickering, Darvid grimly mutters and is about to charge him. The other two did the same while drawing their pistols. But the clinking of metal distracts them from charging forward. Everything happened so fast that they only realized what ensued when bullets fell to the floor followed by the dismantled parts of guns. With stunned faces, Darvid's two bodyguards stare at their weapons on the floor while holding the remaining parts in their hands. Even Darvid froze on his feet. He forgot Kiera Azure has ways with weapons. She was so quick they didn't realize she was already at their side. "You dare draw a
