[A few minutes ago]

'Dang! She is treating me like a stranger apparently, huh. But you can't trick me with that nonchalant look. I know you are affected by me, Valeria.' Markus stared at her butt as Valeria took her leave, she clenched her fist which indicated her anger and nervousness. And he knew every single gesture of hers, it was

somewhat easy for him to figure out that she was clearly troubled by him. Although it was already obvious.

The man traced his thumb over his own lips while looking around for any spying eyes. Markus had been visiting Adrian every now and then, before he took over the business and became occupied. Since Adrian and Valeria gave his responsibility to the butler, Markus had to ensure no staff member of the house would catch him doing evil with Valeria.

'I want to know first whether you still have some soft spot for me or not. Oh, Valeria! You little sneaky hamster!' Seeing her suppressive panic Markus was elated, he was sure how to proceed now. But before

    Valeria's heart ached as she witnessed Markus's turmoil. She knew that the pain she had caused him was real, but she also knew that they couldn't go back to what they once had. Their relationship had been poisoned by mistrust and betrayal, and she had made the difficult decision to leave for her own sanity and well-being."Tell me Valeria, why do you think I'm here?" She could feel herself longing for his touch, perhaps that moment was similar to what she had been imagining ever since her marriage with Markus.Valeria could potentially feel suffocated due to the realisation that she was stuck between two men. But she had to stay strong considering that Markus could not be trusted, and she had to stay put. Valeria pushed him but Markus pulled her again forcefully, she gritted her teeth and smacked him on the chest.

    Markus kept his distance for a while with Valeria knowing that she was pregnant. He could not afford to get on her nerves at such a time. No matter whose child it was, he did not wish to harm the foetus at all.Whereas, Valeria spent the rest of the few hours of the afternoon in her room. She called the maids in her room to bring her fruits and the desired items. There was no way she was going to face Markus after whatever happened.It was already a shock for her that both of them were relatives.

    “I mean if you are marrying her for the sake of the child then I can understand. You have always been the responsible type of guy.” Markus immediately shifted the conversation towards the main point. He settled back on the sofa and puffed once more.“Oh no. You are misunderstanding, Markus. We are absolutely a perfect duo and it is not about the child. The kid is our responsibility and I don’t deem my child as a burden or a forceful string between us.”Adrian explained in a firm tone to put Markus off as he grew annoyed of his constant questioning. “Okay, okay. I was just saying. No need to get so defensive, bud!” Markus immediately cleared the air between them for the time being.Adrian sai

    Valeria became anxious and giddy when Markus pulled her closer. He twisted her arm after tucking it while her other palm rested on his shoulder. “Why? Did you want him to be here when he doesn’t even know things about you?” There was pain in his tone which made Valeria’s heart melt for a moment.Markus mocked Riche for not knowing such little things about the woman he was about to marry. When Markus’s father brought Valeria home to Brazil, soon after he left to study abroad. Valeria was kept from the media for her own safety.The old man thought that things for her would get difficult if people came to know about her. Obviously they would portray her as an illegitimate daughter, which he did not want to happen. Instead, the old man had already planned to marry her to his

    The next day they all had breakfast when Markus arrived at the table a few minutes late. “Morning!” Valeria was seated beside him when Adrian greeted his cousin. Markus could clearly see her getting fidgety upon his presence and he enjoyed that. It was confirmed to him that she was affected by his presence.“Good morning! Are you going somewhere?” Markus questioned while pouring himself a glass of juice. He saw the driver taking a big suitcase outside towards the car. There was no chance that Valeria was going somewhere as she had no place to go. On the dining table Markus tried to ignore Valeria completely.“Oh yeah. The Japanese delegation, they want me to sign the documents and finalise the deal in Sydney.” Adrian explained while taking a big bite of the bread.

    Markus knew he had to do something to cheer her up. As Valeria’s depressing state was not good for the baby. And he also couldn’t bear to see her shedding tears because of him. “Miss, master Markus is calling you outside.” A maid walked in and informed her while Valeria wiped her tears off.“What does he want from me now?” She yelled after the maid was gone, Valeria had to keep her tone relatively low. She couldn’t bear others knowing that she had some history with Markus. The woman held her tummy and stood up from the bed. Right at that moment Markus barged in her room uninvited.“Would you mind going on a vacation with me?” Markus did not wait for her and stormed in to convince her. “If you would agree and in these 14 days you didn’t fall

    Markus settled her in the back seat of the car while the woman was still unable to move. He played the role of devil instead of being her knight in a shiny armour. Valeria could not believe Markus could stoop so low to have her.Only if Markus would have behaved well, then it could have brought him the love of the woman he had desired. "Don't worry love, you know I would never harm you. Nor this child.” Markus cast a look at her protruding tummy blankly.He assured Valeria but perhaps his actions spoke louder than words and she got scared seeing his madness. Valeria sobbed but her lips could barely move but tears crawled out of her eyes. She could not believe that Markus could do something like that."Hey, hey, shushh...there is nothing t

    As Valeria closed the door behind Gabriel, a sense of unease settled over her. She couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to their father's decision than met the eye. Pacing the room, her thoughts swirled with questions, her brow furrowed in frustration."Why isn't Dad doing anything to settle the matter with Bella?"

    His father regarded him with a measured gaze, his expression unreadable. "And what exactly did she do to provoke such animosity from you, Gabriel?"Gabriel hesitated, the weight of his father's scrutiny bearing down on him. He knew he couldn't reveal the true extent of his feelings, the jealousy and resentment that simmered beneath the surface. Instead, he chose his words carefully, masking his true emotions behind a facade of righteous indignation."It's nothing specific, Father," Gabriel replied, his tone clipped. "Just...small disagreements that have escalated over time. I assure you, I have no personal vendetta against Bella. Not anymore.”But his father's piercing gaze seemed to see through his facade, a silent challenge in his eyes.

We'll talk about it later, but right now, I need to get you out of here."Reluctantly, Bella nodded, allowing Eros to lead her towards the grand entrance of the house.

    In the family kitchen, where Valeria, Liam, and Gabriel were seated around the table, savouring their breakfast together. Liam asked while glancing over his newspaper. “Lily, have you made any plans about when you're going to venture out to explore the cities?”Valeria spoke while sipping her tea. “I've been thinking about it, Dad. Maybe next month. I want to finalise a few things before I set off. Moreover, Lucas is still little.”Gabriel was forking a piece of pancake. “You sure you don't want some company? I can take some time off work. Martha is with Lucas and dad is with him too.”Valeria answered while smiling. “Thanks, Gabe, but I think I need to do this on my own. It's kind of a personal journey
