Bella paced worriedly with a lot of things going on in her mind, what if something goes wrong? Daniel was still recovering and now he had endangered himself for his friend, she wished that she was the one there instead of him but Daniel had offered to do it before she could even say anything."You love him, don't you?" Brittany said as she observed how nervous and tensed her friend looked, she knew that because she felt the same way about AaronBella glanced at Brittany, sighed, and sat next to her, "Yes, I do. I love him with the whole of my heart, you know; I wanted to divorce him when I found out that he lied to me about his identity but when I was kidnapped, I realized how much I love him and right now, all I can think of is that nothing should happen to him"Brittany placed her head on Bella's shoulder and hugged her comfortingly, "I feel the same way about Aaron you know, I didn't know how much he meant to me until I received that call from you that he had been shot, my world tu
Bella was surprised to see different faces waiting for Daniel when they got home, she only recognized one of the faces and that was Mrs Beta, the cleaning lady whom Daniel's friend had put in charge of cleaning the house. Of course, she knew better now that it was Daniel's doing because he was the owner of the house"Welcome back Sir Daniel," they said in unison, smiling at him and Bella looked at Daniel for an explanation"These are my workers, of course, you already know Mrs. Beta, the cleaning lady, well, that's her husband, he is my valet, this is Marie, the cook..."He went on to introduce everyone to her and also introduced her as his wife, placing a deep emphasis on the word "wife" that Bella blushedSo many employees to serve in a house, she marveled feeling awkward at how they reverence her and received her warmly as the boss's wife"So many employees to help in the house," she said as soon as she was alone with Daniel"Hmmm, henceforth, you don't have to do anything, you onl
Aaron groaned as he stood up from his bed and the nurse who had been assigned to look after him ran towards him"I'm fine," he grumbled, waving her away. She stood there for a moment, confused whether to ignore him or attend to him, this is the most grumpy man she ever had to deal with.Aaron has been feeling angry since he arrived from the hospital and he won't pretend that he doesn't know why he was angry, "Brittany"Daniel had told him that she wanted to be his donor but the doctor said that she couldn't for reasons that he does not know.He was angry that he woke up and had been a jerk to her, she had told him that she loved him but instead of replying, he had hurt her. His eyes had been searching the hospital when he had been discharged and saw Bella but there was no sign of her, she hadn't bothered to come back not even answer her phone, he missed her a lot and wished to see her"Why not?" He questioned himself, he could simply go to her place to see her and apologize for acting
Bella stared at her reflection in the mirror as she applied deep red lipstick. She admired her looks once more, she had always known that she was beautiful but today, her gaze radiated bliss and satisfaction, a woman who is happy in her marriage. She was wearing a strapless gold-colored mid-thigh gown that clung to her skin like a second skin, her hair falling on her back as she put a finishing touch to her dressing by putting on a red gold necklace and matching earrings. Today, she has a dinner date with Daniel and she wants to dress elegantly and sexy for him. She blushed when she imagined his reaction to seeing her all dolled up.She put on her red high heels decorated with gold beneath and a matching purse just as she heard the sound of his car outside.She hurried out of her room and he stopped at the bottom of the stairs when he saw her, his gaze was awed and filled with a feral lust that sent butterflies squirming in her stomach, he looked like a man starved and she was the mea
Bella was awfully quiet on the drive home and Daniel glanced at her worriedly, "Are you alright?" He asked and she nodded but he was not convinced, she looked pale too unlike the bright and happy-looking Bella that came out from the hotel with him, he noticed that she didn't get her candy floss either and he jutted his jaw towards her hand as he asked, "what about your candy floss? You didn't get it?""No, I...I changed my mind" she replied quietly and he was even more confused by her sudden withdrawal"But you were so excited about it just a moment ago, should we go back and get it?""No!" She yelled and took two visible breaths to calm down before replying in a more quiet tone, "I told you that I don't want it anymore, just take me home"Daniel could not understand what was wrong with her. Did he do something to offend her? These thoughts kept running in his head and when he glanced at her again, she was staring out the window quietly and the rest of the drive home was in silence, n
Days passed by and Bella didn't see Jeremy or hear from him, her nerves began to calm down and slowly she came back to her normal self.She decided to pay Brittany a visit because it has been a while since she last saw her friend and since Brittany moved in as Aaron's wife, she has not been chanced or she would rather say, she has been too scared to even leave the house because of fear of running into Jeremy.She still could not believe that Brittany was about to become a mother and couldn't help but wish it was her, she wasn't on pills and she had been having unprotected sex, she wondered why she hadn't taken in, it would be nice to see her tummy grow bigger with Daniel's child. A child would bond them even more and she hoped to get pregnant soon, she didn't know if it was something to worry about just yet, perhaps, something to see a gynecologist about.She took a few baby clothes that she had bought the other day, she was sure Brittany would love them.She decided to use a taxi, e
Daniel looked at Bella as she kept toying with the food on her plate without eating any of it, "Bella, what is wrong?" He asked for the umpteenth time and once again she assured him that she was okay. She had looked herself up in her room without coming out and today that she was out, she wasn't eating either, he could tell that something was really bothering her and had hoped that she could trust him with whatever it was that was making her jumpy and fidgetyHe had asked the servants and was told that she had gone out to visit a friend yesterday which he confirmed was Brittany, he wondered if she had a misunderstanding with her friend but his sixth sense told him that was not the case, and he would give her more time to trust him with what was bothering her and if not, he would go ahead and find out himself."I heard that you took a taxi to go see your friend, you won't have to do that again because tomorrow, I'm getting a car for you," he said with hopes that the announcement would
Bella has not heard from Jeremy for days since she gave him that money but that didn't help her nerves, she still feels frazzled and racked up that he might just pop up any of these days. For a moment, she imagined that something terrible had happened to him, although it was wrong to wish ill of someone but she knew that she would have been so happy if that was the case.She decided to spend her day with Brittany to keep her company. Brittany was all chatty today, she guessed the pregnancy stress was reducing and she was glad to see her friend all chatty and not looking teary and worn as a result of morning sickness despite the care Aaron was giving her."I'm glad to see you in this mood today, Brittany"Brittany laughed as she brought out some bread and ketchup, her friend had suddenly turned into a glutton and Bella wondered if that's how she would be eating when she became pregnant"These days I am feeling a bit better, the constant throwing up has reduced, although, I still get th
