CHAPTER 81RUBY’S POV“Come on, let's head back. I'm suddenly not in the mood for a walk anymore” I told him as I held my hand out for his and he gave me his hand then I wrapped my around one of his fingers before he stood up and towered over me.With that, we grabbed our cups of coffee and began to walk back to his mansion. My heart was thundering hard, I felt like I was soon going to pass out and it was getting harder to keep a blank face and act oblivious to what just happened to him and his company.I took a peek at Dax as we walked in silence and he looked like he was in a state of turmoil. Like he was struggling with himself from within and I wondered how much he must have lost just from losing this partnership to a rival company.It wasn't going down well for his company shares and he would have to hold a meeting with his shareholders to answer their questions and explain how he let such a huge partnership slip through his fingers.I didn't know much about business but I was su

CHAPTER 82RUBY’S POVI held eye contact with Dax for a while, having no idea what to say in response to his question and he reached an eyebrow at me before mapping his fingers in my face and I blinked.“Is the question too sensitive for you? You could give me an answer when the whole situation is under control. For now, just rest, okay?” he said, u sure if what he asked triggered me and I shook my head.To lessen the chance of any more suspicion, I had to give him an answer immediately. Anything believable was the best so I thought hard and finally, something popped into my brain.I smiled at him before tossing my phone aside so I wouldn't seem too worried about Sally when he believed Ckarissa was her mother. Then I leaned back in the cozy chair of the car’s backseat before dragging in a long breath and letting it out to calm myself down.“It's not like that. I may not be Sally’s mother and this might sound crazy but you can call it motherly love. I'm not a mother but Sally is like a

CHAPTER 83RUBY’S POVDax pulled me in for a hug to comfort me and I succumbed to his hold, letting my forehead pressed against his chest while he patted me on the back to stop me from crying all over again.Thanks to Simon, we arrived at the hospital in no time and I ran to the reception where a nurse stood behind the counter.I asked for Clarissa Tovaro since she was Sally’s guardian and I was directed to the second floor.Without glancing back to see if Dax and Simon were following, I rushed up the stairs because I didn't have the patience to wait for the elevator and soon, I was on the second floor.I began to check all the rooms I walked past and after walking out of the second room, I saw Clarissa sitting on one of the benches in the passage and I rushed toward her.“Clarissa, is she okay? Please tell me she's fine” I said as I knelt before her and she looked up at me with fearful eyes. She smiled in relief immediately after our eyes met and she pulled me into a hug.“I'm so sor

CHAPTER 84RUBY’S POVLater that night, after I had rushed home to take a shower and wear fresh clothes, I returned to the hospital, ignoring the fact that my luggage had arrived, and chose to stay with Sally instead until she would be awake.She woke up when it was only a few minutes to midnight and I was overjoyed to see her awake again. Dax wasn't with us this time, he had returned to his house along with Simon so it was just me and Clarissa tending to Sally after the doctor had checked her vitals and redressed her wound.“I lost my shit when I received your call, Clarissa. I was so scared for Sally and for a moment, I had this horrifying scene play out in my head where I lost her just because I was with Dax” I told Clarissa after we had read many stories to Sally just to put her back to bed.Clarissa slapped me on the arm when I finished talking and I winced before glaring at her.“What was that for? I was having an emotional moment of relief” I snapped at her and she gave me a po

CHAPTER 85RUBY’S POVThe next day, Sally was midway through her breakfast as I fed her when Dax walked into the ward with Simon right on his trail and we both smiled at each other immediately our eyes met. Clarissa had gone home to have a bath and get dressed in clean clothes for the day before returning to the hospital so it was just me and Sally in the ward.Immediately Simon was told that Clarissa was back home, he bid us goodbye and left for our house to get her and drive her back to the hospital and I couldn't help but chuckle in amusement to myself once he was gone. They were really both whipped for each other and didn't care about being open about it.Once Simon was gone, Dax went straight to the bed to meet Sally whose eyes had instantly brightened on seeing him and he patted his palm over her head with a softness in his eyes while he looked at her.“I heard you fell, Sally. Did someone try to hurt you or was it while you were playing?” he asked her and I didn't miss the dan

CHAPTER 86RUBY’S POVThe phone rang three good times before Dennis picked up on the fourth ring and I almost cursed him out when he said hello to me.“Were you thinking about talking to me or not since you've gotten what you've wanted?” I snapped at him and I heard him chuckle over the phone.“There's nothing funny about what I just said so you'd better quit laughing right now” I snapped again as he stopped laughing immediately before the seriousness returned to the conversation and I cleared my throat before I'd start speaking.“Since I did as you wanted and I got you what you've desperately always dreamt about, it's time for you to help me too” I went straight to the point without beating about any bush because there was no time for that.He was either helping me or he wasn't because Dax was working fast so I also had to protect myself from getting caught by him. So there was absolutely no time to start going around in circles before getting to the point which was the reason I calle

CHAPTER 87DAX’S POVThe meeting I had with the shareholders and executives was heated. It felt like they were all after my head in the conference room while I answered several questions they threw at me and detailed out the solutions I had laid out for our company to recover from the hit we encountered.I also told them about my plan to find out who was behind the whole scheme of giving our plan away to Dennis’s company and most of them objected to the idea because they believed I was taking law into my hands. Some supported me due to how livid they were about losing such a huge partnership to such an incompetent company and when we were finally about to come to the end of the meeting, I looked them all in the eyes one after the other and let them all know that I was bent on searching for who gave us away so if they wanted it or not, I didn't care.With that, I walked out of the room while they all stared at me in silence. Regardless of their positions in the company, I was the CEO

CHAPTER 88DAX’S POV“So what job do you have for me? Does it have to do with the partnership you lost?” Simon asked me as I handed him a glass of water since it was working hours and I was against drinking while working.“Yes it has to do with the partnership I lost and I also think you should get your head back into working as my bodyguard instead of being Clarissa’s lover boyfriend all the time,” I told him and I grinned at him when he glared at me.“Don't call me that,” he snarled and I chuckled before taking my seat back on my chair.“Don't deny what you are, Simon. If you like her, then say it. But you should also not forget that you're working for me. It's nothing to be ashamed of. I love Ruby and I always say it” I said to him and he rolled his eyes before he drank the whole glass of water I gave him then he faced me.“Just cut the shit talk and tell me what job you have for me, Dax and I'm going to get serious about work so quit lecturing me” he snapped at me and I held back

RUBY'S POV It was quite a sunny day. A perfect weather for a perfect wedding and I couldn't stop grinning to myself as I stared into the mirror before me, marveling at my look after my makeup was done and I was dressed in my wedding gown. “Are you ready for your big day, dear bride?” Clarissa, who was my chief bridesmaid asked me as she walked into the room along with Patricia, Cecelia, Sid and Michael as they were all in my bridal train.“You bet I am” I replied excitedly and they all hugged me before accompanying me to the altar where Dax waited for me.Half of New York was present because they were all excited to watch the epic wedding between me and Dax since our breakup eight years ago made it to the headlines.I couldn't take my eyes off Dax as he stood alongside his groomsman, Simon, and neither could he and when the officiator asked us to say our vows, our eyes still remained locked until we sealed the marriage with a kiss and a ring each and we became husband and wife.Eve

CHAPTER 135DAX'S POV After Ruby left the hospital in a fit of rage, I felt uneasy. Shebqas right about everything though. We both kept secrets from each other and were both angry but it wouldn't lead anywhere if we didn't calm down and talk it out.I knew immediately that I had to see her and speak to her but I was admitted under close care and watch so I turned to Simon who had been silent ever since the huge argument between me and Ruby happened. “I need you to check on Ruby for me. I don't know what she's thinking but I want to know if she's at the resort” I told him and he nodded before standing up to leave but then he paused by the door and looked back at me.“Ruby wasn't lying, Dax. She didn't know about Dennis’s plan to shoot you and she also wasn't lying about loving you and wanting you alive for her and Sally's sake. You know I'm good at reading people” He said and I nodded because I was also great at reading people and I knew she wasn't lying about anything from the mome

CHAPTER 134RUBY'S POV It was already dark by the time I arrived in Denmark but my blood was still sizzling with anger and all I wanted to do was see Dennis immediately. So I boarded a cab, gave the driver the gallery's address as my next stop and called Dennis. “We need to talk. Face to face, right now” I snapped at him once he picked up my call and he chuckled over the phone.“I was expecting this ever since I found out that Dax eventually knew everything. What a waste of a bullet” he said and I took a deep breath to keep my emotion under control because he was obviously testing me with his insensitive remarks.“Meet me at this place. I'm sending the address to you now and I'll be waiting. You'd better not be late or Dax will come find me when he realizes I'm in not in Greece with him anymore and I'm sure you don't want to get cornered by the man you almost killed” I made sure to let him know I wasn't joking around and I heard him groan over the phone. He was pissed and it felt g

CHAPTER 133RUBY'S POV Humming to myself as I made my way to the room where Dax was admitted along with a paper bag filled with lunch I bought from a restaurant for both of us, I hoped he would wake up to eat with me because I missed him and missed eating with him.I opened the door when I got to the room and immediately I walked in, I noticed the atmosphere was different. Dax was awake and seated up in bed and I was about to hug him but noticed he was staring at me like he didn't recognize me. I frowned because I didn't know why he would be watching me with such foreign eyes.I looked at Simon, hoping he would tell me what was happening but he also stared at me the same way and I wondered again, what on earth was happening and why they were both staring at me like that.“Is something wrong? Did something happen?” I asked out loud when they wouldn’t say anything and Dax placed a phone on the bed side with a video playing on the screen.“Care to explain what this is?” he asked me an

CHAPTER 132RUBY'S POV On the second day of Dax being admitted, he was still unconscious. He only repeatedly slipped in and out of his consciousness where he would just stare at me blankly before losing consciousness again and my eyes were already swollen and hurting due to how much I cried.That afternoon, I was dozing off while I sat beside an unconscious Dax and suddenly, my phone began to ring and when I checked the caller ID, it was Dennis. Quickly, I rejected the call but he kept on calling no matter how many times I declined his calls so I gave in and picked up on his seventh attempt at pissing me off.“What the hell do you want from me, Dennis?” I snapped at him while whispering and he snickered, making me want to strangle him through the phone. “I'm sure you know I did it by now” he went straight to the point and my grip on my phone tightened so hard that I thought my phone would break to pieces in my hand while I gritted my teeth so furiously.“How could you try to kill s

CHAPTER 131RUBY'S POV Morning came and I woke up when I heard someone knocking on the door. Dax was still asleep so I decided to get the door instead. I managed to slip out of his arms since he was holding onto me like I was going to run away in the middle of the night. Then I put on my vest and shorts while the knocking persisted and I rushed toward the door to know who was there.I opened it and I was surprised when I saw it was breakfast. I looked at the resort staff before me and she smiled at me so I made way for her to come into the room and she headed straight for the table In the room to set our breakfast for us.“We didn't order anything though, so how did you know what we wanted?” I asked her and she kept on smiling while she did her job.“Mr. Kellen already scheduled everything with us when he booked the room for your stay here” she explained and I nodded in response before she left the room.I noticed my purse which was still by the entrance to the room and I smiled as

CHAPTER 130RUBY'S POV The surprise location was Santorini and I found out just when we landed in the country and got out of the plane. To say I was elated would be an understatement. I was beyond excited, over the moon and happy that he chose that place for our vacation because it was so beautiful and dreamy and I had always dreamt of going there. So I hugged and kissed Dax on the cheek to thank him and show how much I loved his gesture and he was beaming from ear to ear after I did that in front of the hostesses that worked on the plane. I guessed he was over the moon to have me show that he was mine in public for the first time. “Good day sir and madam. We’ll be heading to the resort now” a driver said after bowing to us and I looked at Dax since I had no idea what was going on.“He’s going to be our designated driver while we’re here” hhe explained when he saw I looked clueless and I nodded before smiling back at the driver while our luggages, a box each of our own, were moved

CHAPTER 129RUBY'S POV Days later, I was safely discharged from the hospital and it was time for the vacation which Dax had proposed. On my way to the airport with him for our vacation, he wouldn't let me out of his sight until we got into the car and I couldn’t help but notice he became even more clingy after our reconciliation and sometimes, it felt like I was imagining it all just like how I thought I imagined everything I told him when I was sedated that night. He had no idea that I could remember and I didn't plan to let him know because I felt embarrassed about it.Patricia and the rest came over to check on me at the hospital and they were even happier than me to know that Dax was speaking to me again. They were glad their plan worked out for me and I would be lying if I didn't admit that I was over the moon too.Arriving at the airport, our luggages were taken into the plane by the staff and I used that moment to tell everyone goodbye one last time before leaving. I hugged

CHAPTER 128DAX’S POVI couldn’t sleep. Not after the conversation I just had with Ruby so all I could do was watch her while she slept thanks to the sedating medication she was given after shebwas rushed to the hospital for her fever and my guilt ate at my insides without mercy.There was a lot about Ruby that I didn’t know. I had no idea that she went through all of that after I broke up with her. I didn’t even know that Micahel had thrown her out because I was trying to avoid her and hearing her say all of it to me while half asleep made me realize how much of a selfish jerk I was.If I were in Ruby’s shoes, I’d do the same and not tell me I was Sally’s father because she was right. I left once so what would stop me from leaving again? she was just protecting her daughter and that was what I failed to understand after knowing the truth.So I spent days away from her, overworking myself to get over the fact that I missed her and my daughter even though Simon told me that she was a m
