The next day Anna woke up by six am to get ready for their flight to London. She was in an irritable mood because she didn't sleep well at night and it was all because of Dylan.

She walked to Emma's room to get her ready first, Anna knew that her daughter wasn't an early riser so she made sure she took a shower the night before so that when it was time for them to leave, she would just have to put on her clothes.

Anna entered the room and just like she predicted, her little girl was still asleep, she had thrown off her blanket from her body and it was on the floor. She knelt by the bed and tapped Emma's hand. Emma frowned her face, not ready to wake up.

“Come on sweet girl, it's time to wake up, remember we're going on an adventure today,” Anna told her daughter, then Emma slowly opened her eyes.

“Morning mama.” She greeted Anna with a sleepy voice.

“Hey sweet girl, how'd you sleep?” Anna asked her as she caressed her head and moved her hair awa

    Anna just stared at the phone, allowing it to ring until the call eventually cut off. “Anastasia, are you all right?” Dylan asked her. The question finally snapped her out of the haze that she was in. “Yeah, I'm sorry about the mess.” Anna apologised to him and then she was about to clean up the coffee on the ground but Dylan stopped her. “Leave it, the maid will handle it, we're already running behind, we need to get to the airport.” Dylan stood up and Anna grabbed her phone from the kitchen Island and followed behind him. They entered the car and Dylan strapped Emma to her car seat and they were off to the airport. From what Dylan knew about Anna's parents, they were always close and she was especially close with her mother, he had no idea what happened between them that caused such a rift. “This isn't the road to the airport,” Anna told Dylan when she noticed they were going the wrong way. “We're not going to the airport. We're going to a p

    “What do you mean she's here?” Dylan asked Lucas, he wanted to cuss so bad but he couldn't with Emma around. “According to the staff, apparently she never moved out,” Lucas told him. Dylan was trying his best to keep his anger in check, but it wasn't working. He turned to Anna. “Anastasia, there's a pond not too far from here, it has different kinds of fish in there, I'm sure Emma would like to see it. One of my security team will take you there.” Dylan told her. Anna could see that Dylan wanted them out of there and she could be a jerk and ask him what was going on but it was clear to her that it was not the right time to do so. “Ok,” Anna told Dylan and then she stretched her hand and took Emma from him. Dylan signaled one of his guards and he came forward. “Take them to the pond and don't bring them back to the house until I tell you so,” Dylan instructed him. He nodded his head and then led Anna and Emma out of the house and to the direc

    Anna kept an eye on Emma while she sat down by the pond and played with the fishes, one of the groundskeepers was even kind enough to give her some food and show her how to feed them, her daughter was so happy and completely oblivious to the situation that was happening. Anna didn't know anything about Dylan's stepbrother and his stepmother, but from the few times that he had mentioned them, it was clear that they didn't have a good relationship. Anna was getting antsy, wondering what was going on, Dylan was taking too long. She looked around and wondered how far this property went, it was surrounded by forests and animals, and the place was picturesque, Anna always admired houses like these. Far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and just surrounded by nature. She spotted a figure approaching and when it got closer, she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was Dylan. He walked towards her and just stopped a few feet in front of her. Anna look

    They returned to the house about an hour later and Dylan hoped that Linda had left, if not he was more than ready to throw her out. When they arrived, decorators and caterers had already arrived and they were setting up. “Wow, these people work fast, I thought the party was happening in the evening?” Anna asked Dylan. “Yes it is, but I'd rather they started early and finished with time to spare than rushing when they start late and like this, if anything went wrong, they'd have more than enough time to fix it.” “Yeah, I guess you're right,” Anna told him as she closed her mouth with her hand to cover a yawn. “I have some business to attend to so I'm going to be in my office most of the day. You look tired so how about you get some rest? Nanny Sofia is here to keep an eye on Emma.” Dylan told Anna. “Yeah, I guess I should get some rest so that I don't fall asleep during the party,” Anna said to him as a joke but there was no smile on his face. “Come o

    Flashback Six Years Ago; Dylan was back home for good this time, he had just graduated from college a month before but he decided to stay back in school to tie up some loose ends and then he would start working at his father's company full time, he already worked there most of the time when he wasn't in school. His family wasn't expecting him until the next week but he decided to come home early to surprise them. He entered the house and walked into the living room but no one was there, next he checked the living room and still he couldn't find anybody. It was still early so Dylan thought that everyone was at work, so he carried his bags up to his room but as he was about to open his room door, he heard a sound come from his father's room at the end of the hall. Happy that either his father or his stepmother was around, he dropped his bags in front of the door and walked down the hall to his father's room, he opened the door. “I'm back home!” He shouted hopi

    There was a knock on the door and it jarred Dylan out of his walk down memory lane. “Come in,” Dylan said. Lucas entered the office and closed the door behind him. “Sir I've called the security company and they've set up a new code for the gate, this is it,” Lucas said as he handed Dylan a card with the new security code written on it. Dylan took the card, scanned the code with his eyes, and then put it in his desk drawer. “Thank you for getting on that quickly Lucas,” Dylan said. “Of course sir, also all the board members have RSVP'd yes same with the business associates, everyone is going to be attending the party today. I also called your father's lawyer.” Lucas informed Dylan. “Ok, have you been able to find anything on Lyon and the reason he called the board meeting?” Dylan asked Lucas. “I haven't been able to find anything on that sir, but the only thing that I can think of is that he somehow got his hands on your father's will.

    They both said goodnight to Emma and walked out of the room and down the stairs. The party was taking place outside in the garden where a huge tent had been set up. “So almost everyone has arrived including your father's lawyer,” Lucas informed both of them. “Ok, so how exactly are we going to do this?” Anna asked Dylan, she was getting nervous. “The MC will announce our arrival and then I'll make the announcement,” Dylan explained to her and noticed how she was fidgeting. “You're going to do great Anastasia,” Dylan told her and then squeezed her hand in encouragement. “Ok, let's do this.” She said as she smiled up at him. The three of them walked out of the house and towards the tent, when they got there, Lucas went in first to inform the MC that they were ready. “Ladies and gentlemen please join me in welcoming your host and CEO of Kings Enterprise, Mr. Dylan Knight.” Both Dylan and Anna walked into the tent after the

    “Come on Anastasia, you can fight with me after the party, but let's do this.” Dylan pleaded with her. “Fine, but I have to put on my shoes.” She told him. “It doesn't matter, your gown is covering your legs.” Dylan told her. Anna took a deep breath and then took Dylan's hand and everyone started clapping as they approached the dance floor. When they got there, the band started playing a rendition of Thinking Out Loud. Dylan put both his hands on Anna's waist and dragged her closer to him, they were just a hair breath apart from each other and then Anna wrapped her hands around his neck and they started dancing. “I didn't keep it from you intentionally Anastasia, I always planned to tell you. But then things always got in the way.” Dylan explained to her. “It's ok Dylan, you don't have to explain yourself to me.” Anna told him. “But you're upset.” Dylan pointed out. “Yes I am, but that's a me thing.

    EPILOGUE. SEVEN MONTHS LATER. A lot had happened in the past seven months since Dylan ran to the airport to stop Anna from leaving. Now, it wasn't smooth sailing between them; they both put in the work by going to therapy and working on their relationship, and they were good now, only choosing to go to therapy twice a month. Dylan stuck to his word, and he was the best husband; the night they came back home, he told her everything about her life, from the moment he was taken away to London, he told her everything, not leaving out any detail. He had also waited on her, hand and foot, since he found out she was pregnant, not letting her do any strenuous activities; he was the perfect husband and father. In those seven months, something else also took place, the cases were tried in court and her father and Mr. Smith were both sentenced for murder and Mr. Smith was first murder and attempted murder. Her father was sentenced to thirty years and Mr. Smith was

    Anna and Emma arrived at the airport about forty minutes later, they didn't have much, just two suitcases, one for Anna and one for Emma. Anna paid the driver, and she and Emma got out of the car. She held Emma's hand and used her other hand to wheel in the suitcases. They were about an hour early for their flight. They walked into the airport, and she checked in her bags, and their tickets were scanned. The attendant told her that they would announce when the flight started to board. Anna thanked her, and then she and Emma walked over to some chairs to sit down. Emma had been quiet throughout the journey, and Anna knew it was because she missed her dad; she hated that she was feeling that way; it was all her fault. She was the one that brought Dylan into their lives. “Hey, sweetie, do you want to watch some cartoons on my phone while we wait?” Anna asked Emma. “Sure, I guess.” Emma said as she shrugged. Anna put on Bluey for her and gave Emma t

    After Anna was discharged, she spent two days on bed rest by order of Caroline; she didn't complain, though; it gave her enough time to think of her next plan. Just like she thought, Dylan had not come to look for her, and she didn't blame him; in the end, they weren't meant to be together; there were too many secrets and lies between them, but it still didn't change the fact that she loved him. Emma has been asking for him constantly, and Anna has had to lie that he was away on a business trip, but she knew that lie wouldn't last forever. So she had to plan, she knew one thing for sure, and that was she couldn't stay in New York, and if she was settling down in another place, it couldn't be London. So after two days of planning she decided that she and Emma would move to Australia, there was a hotel there that had been trying to poach her for months, so she called them and asked if the job was still available, they said yes and she accepted it. The job came with a

    Anna blinked her eyes open and she was hit with a blinding light that she had to close her eyes and groan in pain. “Anna, are you awake?” She heard Caroline ask. She opened her eyes slowly so she could get used to the light, and when they were fully opened, she saw Caroline standing by her side. “Oh, thank God you're awake; you gave me quite a scare, Anna. I'll be right back, let me go and get the nurse.” Caroline said and then she left the hospital room. Anna was confused. How did she get here? The last thing she remembered was watching the press conference with Caroline and Emma was sleeping. Emma? Where is Emma? Anna frantically sat up on her bed as he looked around the room but there was no sign of Emma. Caroline walked back into the room with a nurse. “Welcome back Mrs. Knight.” The nurse said. “Caroline, where's Emma?” Anna asked, her voice was scratchy because her throat was dry. “They have a daycare here; I didn't think that you'd wan

    After Dylan saw Anna's car drive off, every atom in his body wanted to go after her but he couldn't. He had to attend the press conference and he wasn't worried because Marcus was with her. Fucking Kate, it was like she planned it or something. He had to come in through the back and go up to his office because everyone thought that he was dead and then a few minutes after he walked into his office, Kate walked in. Her eyes were red and it was clear that she had been crying. When she saw him she hugged him so tight saying that she knew he wasn't dead, Dylan asked her why she was in his office and she said she was there to beg for her life and that Dylan should spare her, she confessed that she was working with James but only to get him away from Anna and they she had nothing to do with the plane crash. Dylan wasn't shocked to hear that she was working with James; I mean, it would explain the pictures they were sent to Anna; someone had to take them. While s

    “Let's go to the living room so I'll be able to keep an eye on Emma.” Anna told Caroline. “Why do you need to keep an eye on Emma? Anna, what's going on?” Caroline asked again. “I'll tell you everything, let's just go sit down.” Anna told her and then they both went into the living room and sat on the couch facing the TV and opposite where Emma was sleeping so Anna was able to keep an eye on her. “You better start explaining yourself, Anastasia George, or is it Knight now?” Caroline asked her. Anna released a huge breath and then she proceeded to tell Caroline everything. How she met Dylan at the hotel, how she got into a contract marriage with him and in exchange, he agreed to protect her from James and bring him down. How they went to London, Emma's kidnapping, and her heart condition. She told her how they slowly but surely fell in love and admitted their feelings to each other. How everything was so good and then it all went so bad, from the th

    Anna ran as fast as she could, she could hear Dylan call out her name behind her but she didn't stop to look back. It was all too much, he had lied to her about everything. She got into the elevator and frantically tapped on the button for the down floor. She could see Dylan getting closer, but the doors closed just in time. She wasn't free just yet, and she knew it; she wouldn't be until she got as far away from Dylan Knight as possible. The elevator doors opened, and she stepped out; she knew Dylan wasn't far behind, probably opting to use the stairs. She ran out of the lobby. She knew she was drawing attention to herself, but she didn't care. She stepped outside, and thankfully, Marcus listened to her and the car was still parked outside the office. She ran to the car and opened the door. “Drive Marcus now.” Anna told him with urgency. “What's going on Mrs. Knight?” Marcus asked her. “Just drive Marcus.” Anna told him as she looked back at t

    Anna slowly brought out the folder that had her name on it. She opened it up and on the first page was her basic information, her name, date of birth, house address, place of work, things like that and then she flipped to the second page and she saw her pictures, pictures from when she was picking Emma up from school, going to work and coming back from work. Did Dylan have her followed? She continued flipping through the pages, and she could see that this folder was like a dossier on her life; everything about her was in that file: her marriage to James and her parents. Anna didn't understand why Dylan had this. It was when she flipped to the next page that her heart dropped to her stomach. They were pictures, and she recognised the place, it was the club, and she was more sure of it because, at the top of that page, it was written in block letters: ANNA SIX YEARS AGO. She looked at the pictures, and the more she flipped through them, the memories from that night

    By the time Dylan was done with his call and he went up to their bedroom, Anna was asleep. His talking to her would have to wait till tomorrow, but he had to do it before the arrests were made because once they were made public, she would surely put two and two together. Especially since Lucas informed him that she wanted to find him, something happened when she went to see her parents, that had to be the only reason why she wanted to find him urgently. But what could've happened? Could she have found out the truth? No, that couldn't be it, whatever it was, he would ask her about it tomorrow morning after he told her the truth, that's if she was still talking to him after. He took off his shirt and trousers, left only his briefs on and then he got into bed with Anna and wrapped his arms around her, even in her sleep, Anna turned around, seeking his warmth. ************ The next day, Dylan woke up expecting to have Anna by his side, but when he opened his eyes
