ZORA—

I watched as the interaction between Daisy and her father was blending, and I couldn't help but keep smiling sheepishly. This was what I had been depriving the two of them of.

Zayn didn't even bother talking to me throughout that dinner. The only time he talked to me was when Daisy mentioned something that related to me.

Well, I'm not blaming him because I would do the same if it were me. I can't even imagine someone hiding my daughter away from me for five whopping years, so Zayn is right in every one of his reactions.

The was going well between the daughter and father, and I was okay with it until Zayn stood up and went to the window, gazing at the city.

"I hope you're prepared to spend the night here with us because you're not going home with her tonight. The days aren't friendly to be driving home with her by this time," Zayn commented.

He was right. It was already the time when a lot of evil happens in Southampton city.

The youths of this place rarely work for money but rel

    For how long are we going to stay silent, indulging ourselves with drink?" I managed to ask.A smirk formed across his lips, and he gently dropped the glass cup, resting his back on the seat backrest. "For hiding my daughter from me for five years, you need to pay me something more than that," he declared.I bit my lips, and my gaze went downcast for a few seconds before returning to face him. I needed to be strong if I must escape this man, so I summoned courage. "Zayn, I don't even know how you came to your conclusion about my daughter being yours. She's not your daughter, please. Her real father must be really worried by now about us."Hearing this, Zayn let out a slight taunting laugh, making me scared. He took a sip of his wine and fixated his gaze on me, smiling.For him to be this bold, he might have obtained a lot of evidence that backed up his claims as Daisy's real father.A few seconds later, he sighed heavily and sat up. "Have you forgotten that I was with Daisy throughout

    ZORA —"Zayn, can we talk this out in the daytime? I'm already sleepy and need to rest," I said, interrupting his plans.I finished the wine in my glass and prepared to leave.Zayn stood up, looking frustrated, but I was more concerned about getting some sleep"Use the other bathroom if you want to shower. That one is Daisy's only," Zayn said as he saw me walking into the bathroom where I bathed Daisy. He was following me.I gulped, smiling slightly as I felt that wasn't necessary.He just said that so he could follow me to the restroom and continue his silly talk. This was my conclusion.I went to the restroom and showered. It had really been a stressful day.I was relieved when we walked halfway, and Zayn pointed at the door right by the corner, saying, "That's the restroom," and then he left.I entered and began bathing without scanning the restroom. It was after I was done that I reached for the shelf where I hung my dress to get it when two packages of nylon fell down. I picked th

    Already knowing what he was thinking, I didn't give it much thought, and my lips reached for his. We had a crazy, mad kiss. It was as if we had been starved of that for a lifetime.I didn't want anything more than to fall for the same mistake I made months ago in his mansion with him, even though I know it could cause terrible consequences in the future.**The next morning, I woke up before Zayn, and the first thing that came to my mind was the incident that happened last night. I felt ashamed remembering how I was forcing my way even though Zayn was retracting at some point, knowing that I might wake up the next day and feel bad about what happened.I stared at him for some seconds and ended up caressing his face. He was so cute while sleeping.The touch woke him up. "Good morning," he greeted softly, with a smile creeping on his lips.The smile indicated he recalled what happened during the night and was happy about it. It was a smile of satisfaction."Good morning. I can see you ha

  • MR. CEO, ON YOUR KNEES    78: Are You Cheating On Me?

    Daisy —I woke up from sleep to use the restroom. I had been purging throughout the night due to the unhealthy water I drank last night.After the long search for Zora's daughter, Daisy, we decided to stay at a hotel and spend the night there instead of risking our lives by driving home.I had taken anti-purge medicine, but it only helped to alleviate the purge. It hasn't been long since I took it.About five minutes later, I returned to the room after using the restroom. I looked a bit frustrated and angry."Babe, why did you choose to stay here among all the hotels in this city?" I asked Blake, my husband, while he was still sleeping, nudging him to wake up.He didn't consume anything from the hotel yesterday, which is why he was unaffected by the issue that affected me."I'm really sorry, babe. I thought you had already taken medicine the first time we woke up. Isn't it working?" He asked, sitting up in bed, his face filled with worry and pity.I frowned as I sat closer to him. "I'm

    ZORA —"Are you serious? Daisy was with that monster called Zayn yesterday?" Jason was terrified when he heard the news.I and my daughter returned here this morning, and Blake and his wife decided to pay us a visit, perhaps to know if we really come back in good health."I'm really shocked that Zayn would do that," Daisy, my friend, chipped in."Yes, dear. I didn't know how it happened, but he kidnapped her. I think he found out that Daisy is his daughter," I commented, feigning anger as he is."Fuck!" Jason cursed, kicking the air as he vented his anger. "That man is challenging me. After all these years, he's just realizing that Daisy is his daughter. What a disgrace!""But Jason, think about it. Zayn wouldn't stay forever without knowing that Daisy is his daughter. It would only be a matter of time before he finds out, and I think it has happened.""What nonsense!" Jason roared, obviously irritated by my response."Are you taking sides with that asshole? You want him to find out th

    ZORA — "God, Jason, this accusation is too much for me. Why are you acting so insecure? How could something happen between me and Zayn when Daisy was present?" I continued lying. I was determined not to give up even though there were glaring pieces of evidence. Daisy was already suspicious of me from the way she was giving me a suspicious stare, but she didn't make it obvious to Jason. "What's happening here, guys? I thought this should be a call for celebration, so what's all the fuss about?" Blake questioned as he emerged from my daughter's room. "What happened? Daisy was worried as the voices were getting louder. And why were you cursing my friend Zayn?" Blake added, walking over to where his wife was sitting and joining her. He was directing to Jason. I felt like burying myself in the ground, concluding that I was already caught since Daisy, my daughter, noticed the commotion from her room. I thought she was coming out with Blake. She might even tell Jason that Zayn is her re

    ZORA—Everyone had left after the meeting at my place, so it was just my daughter and me remaining.They're on a short holiday, as so is our organization, so I have a few days to take care of myself and rest."Mommy, why was everyone shouting at each other when Uncle Jason and your two friends were here?" Daisy asked, coming out of her room after noticing that everyone had gone.The once buzzing room was now as quiet as a graveyard."Nothing really, dear. There was something important we were discussing.""Is it about my dad? When are we going to visit him again? And mommy, who really is Uncle Jason, since my daddy is the man who picked me up from daycare the other day?" Daisy was curious. She gazed directly into my eyes, waiting for an answer."Hello... Yes... Okay, I'll do it right away." I faked a call, stood up, and left the room.As I walked into my room, I exhaled a deep sigh of relief. "Lord, don't let this girl expose me," I blurted, holding my chest.Unexpectedly, my phone be

    ZORA —"Is that my baby's voice I'm hearing in the background?" Zayn asked excitedly. "Please let me speak with her," he demanded, and I handed the phone to Daisy."Hello, Daddy," she said, excited to speak with her father."Hello, my beautiful angel!" I could hear Zayn's voice. He was happy to hear from Daisy again after last night."How are you, my princess?""I'm fine, Daddy. When are you coming to visit us here?" She asked as if she was here when I and Zayn discussed his visit.They spoke for a few minutes before Daisy handed the phone back to me. Their conversation flowed effortlessly."Daisy sounded so sleepy when we were talking.""Yeah. She's sleepy. She'll sleep now once she has her lunch," I said."Amazing. Can't wait to see you both. I'm really missing you. The crazy stroke you...""Shhh. She's still around," I shunned Zayn, not wanting Daisy to hear the voguish topic he was trying to start."Alright. I will call you back after a while then," he stated and hung up the call,

    ZAYN —We were all gathered at the dining table during the celebration, but I could see a discomfort on Zora's face. She was clearly scared because of Paige's presence. Not really because she might harm her or anything related to that but because she doesn't want to get into a heated talk with her.I was seething with rage because I never expected Paige to be here and ruin my happiness. The fact that my grandmother had invited her infuriated me even more. Why would she do that?"Zayn, I know you're upset that your grandmother invited Paige, but don't be mad at her. She must have had her reasons," Zora whispered to me.She was worried that things might escalate if tempers flared up."What reason could possibly justify ruining my happiness?" I grumbled, clenching my fists and shooting Paige a look of irritation."I know she was wrong, but please try to control your temper. Don't do anything foolish. If not for anyone else, do it for our daughter. She's too young to witness her daddy get

    ZORA—The dinner party turned out to be quite different from what I had anticipated.The house was bustling with Felicia's friends, relatives, some of Zayn's staff members, and other unfamiliar faces. It had been five years since I had last seen many of them, so I struggled to recall everyone. Over the years, new friendships must have formed within the family circle.The sitting room was lavishly decorated, and the spread of food looked inviting. Felicia had gone all out, even bringing in musicians to add to the festive atmosphere. It was evident that she had put a lot of effort into planning the event. I was surprised that so many of the invitees had managed to attend on such short notice.The room was abuzz with conversations and laughter, and some people who recognized me came over to catch up."Zora, it's been almost six years since we last saw you! Are you back for good? We've missed you around here," Catherine, one of Felicia's friends, exclaimed, drawing attention to me. I hesi

    ZORA—"Hello Zora, are you in Southampton?" Daisy asked me as soon as I answered her call, making me gasp in shock.Gosh. How did she find out?I sighed, running my hand through my hair as I thought of what to say. For her to phrase the question this way means that someone had told her, so there's no need lying to her."Um... Yes. How did you know?" I responded, stammering.I never thought of telling Daisy about this because I knew she would be mad at me, but it seems that the truth has been revealed."Why would you do that? Zora, it seems like you don't love yourself and your little child, huh?" said Daisy from her end, bringing me back from my reverie of thoughts."Uhm, Daisy, calm down. Everything I'm doing, I do for a purpose.""Purpose?" She countered, letting out a deadpan laugh."What purpose is there in going back to someone who doesn't have your best interest at heart? I can see you've been ensnared by a spell because you can't be doing this with clear eyes," she scolded, her

    ZORA—"Grandma is right, Zora. The greatest gift is having you and Daisy back in our lives, and that's what she's talking about," Zayn chimed in, making me sigh in frustration.Why are they making the situation more complicated?Somehow, that statement made me emotional even though I wasn't comfortable with it."Let's go in, please. I'm sorry that I kept you guys outside for so long," Felicia remarked. She held Daisy's hand, leading us inside.Zayn's grandmother and Daisy were deep in conversation as we walked inside, as if they had known each other for a long time, while I swallowed a lump of satisfaction as I watched them."This place is still the way it was," I commented, trying to start a conversation between me and Zayn."Yeah. I know you would be amazed. My grandma likes keeping things the same but never fails to maintain them," said Zayn, joining me in admiring the environment."My sister would be happy to see you. I'm glad she visited," Felicia remarked, turning her gaze towar

    ZORA —"Grandma, guess who was with me in the car," Zayn exclaimed joyfully as he got out of the car and walked up to the old lady to embrace her."Who else but your good-for-nothing wife, Paige? She finally came to visit. Hope I'm safe for her visit today," the old lady remarked solemnly."Hell no, Grandma. You know I told you I'd surprise you one day, and that day has finally arrived," he said with a smile, turning to the car where we were waiting. He had instructed us not to get out until he gave the signal and even ordered his security man not to let us disobey his order.I could see him signal his chauffeur, who quickly opened the back door for us to exit.Daisy was the first to step out and went to her dad."Zayn, is she..." She stammered, her words barely audible."You never told me she's the girl you had out of wedlock," Mrs. Felicia commented, disappointment evident in her blue eyes.Zayn chuckled, trying not to laugh too hard to avoid embarrassing the old woman."Daddy, is s

    ZORA—"Hurry up. Pack your bag and Daisy's too; we're leaving for Southampton City for the Christmas holiday," he said to me, catching me off guard.My heart sank upon hearing that. "Southampton City? Christmas holiday?" I asked, my forehead creased."Come on, Zayn. I already told you I have an appointment with my boyfriend, so why are you trying to create issues?" I was annoyed, wishing he hadn't shown up."Really? So if I hadn't told you, you wouldn't have known how much you hurt him? You would have the nerve to visit him after what happened here recently?" He questioned me, his words cutting through me like ice, making me realize the mess I had gotten myself into."I really don't like how you treated him, Zayn. He doesn't deserve this.""I know, but I have to stand up for my rights, Zora. You're my wife, and I'm not going to share you with anyone," Zayn replied, his tone serious."Wife?" I rebuked him, my forehead creased as I stared at him disdainfully, not caring that Daisy was p

    "J… Jason," I heard Zora whisper in astonishment. Her jaw dropped. Clearly, from her facial expression, one could tell she never expected Jason to appear out of nowhere and catch us during the moment.She looked at me suspiciously before returning her gaze to Jason. Perhaps she thought for a moment if I planned this together with Jason."I'm sorry, Jason, but there's nothing to worry about regarding Zayn's presence. He... he just visited to s...""I need no explanation, Zora. I'm not a kid to be explaining a scene," Jason cut her short, the anger in his eyes intensified as his teeth clenched."Daddy!" Daisy exclaimed, running to Jason and hugging him tightly."How are you, my princess?" Jason asked, trying so hard to mask the pain in his voice."Daddy, meet Daddy Zayn. He's a good man," Daisy added, pointing her finger towards me.Innocent Daisy, she obviously thought she was doing the right thing unbeknownst to her that she's adding salt to an injury."Jason, why didn't you call me

    ZAYN —We were in the middle of enjoying ourselves when we heard a truck honk at the gate."Are you expecting anyone?" I asked Zora, who looked stunned as she tried to figure out who it could be."Not really. Except for the delivery package that I requested yesterday, but I doubt it's the delivery guy since it was a truck horn we heard instead of a motorbike," said Zora, running her hand through her hair."Let's go find out who it is then," I said, standing up.I led the way, with Zora following. Meanwhile, Daisy had already gone to her room after finishing her meal. Zora convinced her to leave the room at my request so I could go ahead and put on a show for her as promised.As we walked out of the building towards the exit gate, I took out my phone to verify something so I wouldn't embarrass myself in front of Zora."Who's that?" Zora asked the security guard."He said he came to deliver a surprise package, Ma," said the security personnel with an honest look.Zora was about to walk

    ZAYN —I woke up after the intense bedroom workout between Zora and me. It was so intense that we both fell asleep after the activity.I searched for my phone but couldn't find it as everywhere was dark. It was early morning, probably around 3:00 a.m. or 4:00 a.m.I stretched my hand to the bed frame and switched on the light. It was somehow easy because I had already seen the switch there during the activity.Meanwhile, Zora was still asleep.I reached for my phone but saw hers beside mine. Immediately, an idea came to my mind, and I picked up her phone instead of mine, which I initially wanted to.Fortunately, I had seen her unlock the phone multiple times without a biometric method, so unlocking it wasn't a hassle for me.I went to her contact list and searched for the name "Jason" and proceeded with my plan.Zayn: I don't care what you did for Zora, but stay away from her. This is Zayn texting you with Zora's phone, and that should tell you that we're still together. Just because
