MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES

ZORA I paid the cab driver and hurried into the compound, rushing to prepare dinner for my husband before he's back from work. It's his birthday and also our marriage anniversary.I had decided to cook his special meal as part of his birthday gift. I wanted to show him how much I loved him and how happy I was that he married me.Zayn, a famous billionaire who runs the multimillion-dollar firm he inherited from his father, and I had been married for three years. We married a year after graduating from college.Although Zayn hadn't been the best husband over the past three years, I kept hoping for his change.The childlesness in our marriage contributed to his sudden change. We had visited many medical places, but it seemed we weren’t doing something right. However, today I felt excited because I had a special surprise: a hospital report showing I was one month pregnant!We lived in a sophisticated villa in Southampton City, surrounded by servants and luxury. Despite that, I always pref

What happened, Daisy?" I asked her as she stared at the phone screen for a while after answering the call."Oh, it's my husband. He said he's returning tonight," Daisy replied and forced a smile at me."Alright. Let's wait for him then," I replied, sitting up so I wouldn't fall asleep."No, dear. You should sleep. He'll come late because their flight hasn't even taken off. He would have to call me when he's back," she replied."Alright then. Hopefully, he comes back safely. Goodnight," I responded and went to bed. A few minutes later, after going through her phone, Daisy went to their marital bedroom to sleep as well.I woke up after hearing some noise, and it was coming from the kitchen. I reached for my phone and powered it on. It was then that it dawned on me that it was already morning and that it was Daisy's maids who were making the sound in the kitchen as they were cooking.I rose from the bed and walked into the restroom to wash my face before strolling out to meet Daisy and he

ZORA"What are you doing, Zora?" Daisy asked me as she approached. Her face was laced with disappointment."At least accept the offer. You can't just spend three years with him only to leave with nothing. Please rethink. Go back and collect those documents," she urged me."I really understand you, Daisy, but I'm not interested in the offer. I loved Zayn with my whole heart and not because of his status. Please just let me have my way to my room so I could get my things and leave."Hearing this, Daisy couldn't help but coldly walk out of the way for me."I really appreciate your kindness towards me, but I'm not really interested in any of his offers," I told her and proceeded to my room while she sluggishly left.A few minutes later, I was done packing my luggage, and I stormed out of the room, heading downstairs to leave the house.Upon walking down, Daisy and her husband weren't there anymore. Zayn and Paige were the only ones who remained, as they were busy playing lovebirds and disc

Five Years Later"Mommy, are you not going to work today?" I could hear my daughter ask while I was sleeping. I slowly opened my eyes, and there she was, trying to put on her school clothes. A smile forced its way across my lips as I saw the effort she was putting into dressing herself but couldn't.I glanced at the clock and panicked in shock, "Oh my goodness." I never knew it was already 7:30 a.m."I instantly jumped out of bed and took her to the restroom for a shower. I had worked so stressfully yesterday that I couldn't wake up early today, as usual, to prepare for work and drive my kid to school. A few minutes later, I finished bathing her and dressed her quickly before we headed to the garage to go to her school. "Mommy, remember you promised to take me to the amusement park today after school? Are you still going to fulfill it?" She asked while I was driving. "Of course,

On our way to Southampton City, I was chatting with Daisy, my friend, because Jason was the one driving.Daisy: "Are you really going to Southampton City?"Zora: "Yes, dear, I'm going for a quick lunch with some investors. There's nothing to be worried about. It's just business."Daisy: "Sigh. What if you meet an unwanted guest at the meeting?"I couldn't help but chuckle, and Jason noticed."What's amusing you this time?" His eyes locked on mine as he asked."It's my friend, actually. She said something funny," I replied, my smile broadening."I see," he chipped in and concentrated on the wheel while I replied to Daisy's question.Zora: "That's unlikely to happen, but even if it does, it doesn't affect me anymore as I have moved on."Daisy: "You're right. Riffraffs don't deserve your feelings anymore, as responsible men are queuing to be with you."I chuckled again unknowingly, noticing what she meant. Daisy is always naughty and mostly talks about Jason's likeness towards me and als
