“Boss, the annual party tonight…” Fortune walked into Dave's office and began explaining.

But Dave raised his hand to stop him. “I won't be attending. You should have known that,” he said.

Fortune sighed. “Of course. You have never attended it! I just thought that you would have a change of mind this year,” he said.

Dave did not say anything. He continued working on his computer as though he was not the person that Fortune was talking to.

Fortune sighed and looked at me. “Mia, the party will start at seven o'clock. You can call me if you don't have someone to drop you…” he said.

And Dave suddenly turned to look at me. “Are you going?“ He asked, as though he was shocked.

I creased my brows and nodded. “It is a party for all employees. Of course, I will have to go,” I said.

I wasn't like him. Even though I hated places with a lot of people, that was a sacrifice I could make only once every year.

And besides, I was familiar with most of the people attending. It was only Dave who was s

    Soon, the game was changed and we played truth or dare. It was fun at first, since people were forced to say some funny things about their lives.Someone was dared to do the piggy dance for thirty minutes, another one was dared to cluck like a hen for ten minutes and I was dying with laughter.“Boss, truth or dare!“ Fortune, who seemed to have a grudge against Dave, suddenly said. Once again, all the attention was turned back to Dave, who was sitting by himself on the other side of the table.He seemed stunned for a second before rubbing his head. “Truth!“ He said. He was a little outgoing that day.Fortune smiled. “Um… I thought you would choose dare,” he said, a little disappointed. “Anyway, tell us about your first love…”I was also eager to hear about that. He had never said anything about his first love. Could it be Becky?Dave sighed and threw me a look. Luckily, I looked away from him before he could catch me. I didn't want people to start questioning me again.“My first love?“

    Dave looked at Mia as she was running away and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips. “Did you think that we could hide this forever, little rascal?“ He asked in his head.He wanted to go after her to see if she was fine but he got a call. He hesitated before looking at Fortune. “Keep an eye on her. The call is important. I have to pick it up,” he said and walked out.Fortune nodded. He could tell that his boss was in a good mood today. Was it because he had finally managed to kiss Mia in the public?He sighed and wanted to go to look for Mia. After all, she had drunk a lot today.But Annie, who had been unusually quiet after Dave kissed Mia, forced a smile. “I will look for her. You can't go to the ladies' washroom,” she said.Fortune wanted to turn her down. But remembering that he was not Dave who could do anything and go scot free, he decided to let her go.It would only make sense if a lady went to look for Mia. And, almost all the other ladies were drunk.…In the washroom,

    ….Dave seemed so busy all of a sudden. Every ten to thirty minutes, he would receive a call and go out to answer.“Is everything okay?“ I asked him. It was a holiday, he needed to be calm.He sat beside me with a smile. “I am happy to know that you care about me,” he said and gave me a peck on the cheek.I moved away from him and wiped my cheek. He was used to applying his saliva all over me. And who told him thati cared about him?I could see him pout. “Did you just wipe it away?“ he asked and held my hands, pulling me closer to him.He held my face and planted kisses everywhere. “I will do something worse if you ever try to wipe it away again,” he warned.I wanted to argue with him, but I paused when I saw dad standing at the door. He was looking at us. I froze.“Dad…” I called and tried to move away from Dave. I could still feel his saliva all over my face. That was embarrassing.But Dave held me tightly and gave me another peck. And this time, it was on the lips. I froze.“Dave…”

    …Dave returned home just a few minutes before supper. But he pulled me to his room as though something had happened.“What is wrong?“ I asked in confusion. He rarely behaved like that.He sat on the bed and sighed. “I want you to make dad talk about his love life during dinner. Can you do that?“ He asked in a lower voice.I was taken aback. “He doesn't like talking about it. I think it still hurts him,” I said. I did not want to see Dad looking heartbroken again.But Dave held my hand and squeezed it. “I will never do anything to harm him. I am just doing it for his own good,” he said.I was stunned. “Dave, what are you up to today?“ I asked. He seemed very serious about everything. The only thing I did not understand was why he wanted dad to talk about his past.“Something very important. Are you going to help me?“ He asked. He seemed to be running out of patience.And I could only pout. “You are always very secretive. You can't even tell me what it is but you want me to help?“ I as

    We were stunned. None of us knew who exactly she was referring to. Big Bunny? Didn't it sound funny?But seeing how collected Dave seemed, I began having my own doubts. I looked at Dad, and I just realized how shocked he looked.“Little Pumpkin…” Dad spoke, almost absentmindedly. And I was shocked again.I looked between them, and I only realized what was happening when Auntie Benta opened the tap and washed her face.Then, she scratched the side of her face and pulled something off her face. It was a face mask. And I thought that I was dreaming.“Dealan?“ Dad called again, and we looked at Auntie Benta again. I was astounded.Ah! Wait! I actually wanted to check out to see if Auntie Benta had gone somewhere else. The person in front of us was not her.The woman we saw was young, and her face was so smooth and beautiful. She was very different from Auntie Benta. Had it not been for the clothes that she was putting on, I would have thought that she was someone else.Another round of te

    For a while, I was still confused. But we all hugged and cried. Dealan could not let me go. “It is my fault that she tortured you. I did not take good care of you,” she said.I rubbed her back gently. “That was nothing that you could control. I am really happy to know that you are my biological mother," I said.When I thought that Sofia was not my mom, I felt so happy and relaxed. This was a prayer I had always had for years.“Sofia has done so many despicable things. She shouldn't be free like this,” Dad said. He pulled Dealan into his hands again and kissed her.Dealan cried. “Zack, thank you for taking good care of her. We now have a family,” she said.Dave smiled and pulled me away with him. “Dad, you guys should go and rest,” he said.I looked at him in confusion. “I have just reunited with my mom. Why are you taking me away?“ I asked.But he scoffed. “Your mom has just reunited with her long-lost love. Give her some time. They have a lot to talk about,” he said, leading me to hi

    I trembled. It meant that things had gotten worse. I looked at dad, and he nodded at me. That meant that he had received the same message from Dave.He held my hand, and we proceeded to take our seats. The funny thing was that Dad did not cause a scene because of his seat.He sat on an ordinary seat beside me and looked up at Sofia. “So tell us. What are you trying to do today?“ He asked.Sofia chuckled. She seemed to be so joyful that day. Maybe she was sure that she had succeeded in whatever plan she had.“Just relax, love! I don't see the need for too much hurry. You are going to learn everything soon,” she said.A few minutes later, everyone began looking at their phones with curious gazes. I stole a look at Dad and decided to look at my phone too.And I froze at the trending news. There was a statement online that said that Sofia had acquired ZD after gaining a total of forty-three shares, being the biggest shareholder.I froze. I felt like the energy in my body was all gone. “Da

    I swallowed hard and looked at Sofia. “How did you fake this?“ I asked. I could not believe that she could go to that extent to make me look bad.“Darling…” Sofia called with a smile. “Are you afraid of him now? You shouldn't be scared since Mommy is going to protect you. You did the right thing to side with me."Everyone was throwing me crazy looks. And I felt so annoyed. “I asked you how you got this!“ I shouted. The woman was getting on my nerves. Why was she trying to make everyone believe that I was working with her?Sofia smiled and looked at the reporters. “Don't mind her. She is just scared. I will take good care of her."“To hell, Sofia! First, you are not my mother! How do you think I would help you? Don't taste my patience! How did you get my signature on these?"I stopped talking when I thought of something. Annie! I was sure I had signed more than two documents that day.I wanted to say something else, but Dad held my hand and pulled me away. “I trust you, darling. Just b

    I pursed my lips and scratched my head as I looked between Emah and Little Treasure. “Um… Are you going to fight with a kid?“ I asked and winked at Emah.“Auntie Emah, why are you so annoying? Little Auntie's baby is mine,” Little Treasure said with a pout.I felt like laughing at the two of them. They were fighting over something they were not even sure about.Emah blushed. “Um, because Little Treasure booked first, I would ask you to pray hard that it is a girl. If not, you will only end up with a little brother,” she said.Little Treasure smiled. “Auntie Emah is sensible nowadays,” he said, giving me a peck on the cheek.Soon, more and more visitors came, ranging from close friends to other business partners. The party was not very formal. So, we ate, drank, and had fun.I was so exhausted when the party ended and we finally went to bed. “Aah! I am just so exhausted,” I said as Dave wrapped his hands around me.“Don't worry, we have the whole of tomorrow to rest before we leave,” he

    …Dave picked the biggest piece of meat and put it on my plate. But I quickly shook my head at him. “No, I don't want to eat this much again,” I said.At that time, most of my clothes did not fit anymore. I was scared that if I ate a little more, I wouldn't be able to recognize myself.“What is wrong with her? Hasn't meat been her favorite?" Dad asked with raised brows.And the shameless Dave burst out laughing. “She is scared of getting fat,” he said. I felt embarrassed at his words.Dad and Mom also burst out laughing. And I did not know whether they were laughing at me for my fatness or something else.“Darling, don't stress yourself about the meals. It is normal for you to gain some weight when pregnant. After you give birth, you will go back to your normal body,” Mom explained.I looked at her with some doubt. “Are you sure?“ I asked. I was scared that they were just happy to see me gain more weight.“I am very sure, darling,” Mom said, and she began looking at her phone. “See, t

    …I opened my eyes, and the happy voices and noises outside shocked me. Was there a party or something?I had felt sleepy after having lunch, so I went to bed. I did not even know how long I had slept.I moved on the bed and felt uncomfortable. What was wrong with me? Wait, what was I putting on?My eyes opened wide when I saw myself in a white wedding dress. Was Dave playing another trick on me?I turned around to look at myself in the mirror, but I froze. That was not our usual house.And taking a closer look, I realized that I was in the house on Treasure Island. How had I gotten there?“The bride is awake!“ Emah shouted as she entered the room. “Sigh! We were all waiting for you.“I looked at her in shock. “What are you doing here?“ I asked. Did everyone come to Treasure Island with us?“To attend your wedding, of course,” Emah said, pulling me to the bed. “Look at you. How did you sleep? We have to patch up your make-up again.““Where is Dave?“ I asked. Did he drug me to sleep so

    The doctor was taken aback. He looked at Dave with questioning eyes. “Your wife is two months pregnant. Are you sure you knew nothing about it?“ he asked.Dave once again looked at the girl on the bed. His heart was beating very fast. “No wonder she has been very moody recently. Doctor, what am I supposed to do?“ He asked, his eyes dancing with joy. He was going to be a dad.“Try making sure that she is stress-free. It is always a bit difficult for first-time mothers to handle too much stress and anxiety,” he explained.…I had just woken up when I heard something about someone getting pregnant. For some reason, my heart began beating so fast.“Who is pregnant?“ I asked in a small voice. Dave was holding onto my hand.He quickly looked at me when I spoke. “Honey, you are awake,” he said, kissing my cheeks. “I was very scared.““Who is pregnant?“ I asked again. I wanted to know the answer to that so much.Dave creased his brows. “You did not know about it?“ He asked softly.And I shook

    Yuel looked at Sofia with a sigh. “I think we have to stop it. Denny will be mad at you. And she might tell Mia the truth,” he said.He was still feeling afraid when he remembered the things that Dave and his men had done to him in that basement.But Sofia waved Denny's phone in her hand. “I have her phone. She can't communicate with anyone,” she said."But, siz,” Yuel tried to say. Denis had promised to help them out in the end. Wasn't Sofia going to ruin everything if she tried to harm Mia?“I am going to get rid of her like I should have done in the past. It doesn't matter anyway. Sooner, I will go back to jail.“…Denny could not just sit still when she thought that her mom was going to harm Mia. She looked around the room, trying everything to get out of there.And at last, she succeeded in breaking the window and left quietly. She was not going to allow her mom to do another harmful thing to Mia.“Sir, please, can I use your phone?“ She asked the first person she saw on the way.

    Mom chuckled and nodded her head continuously. “Yes, he is trying to act sweet. Also, we all know how much Dave loves you. You have to be happy with the way he calls you,” she said.Even though I thought it would look funny if I was happy with anyone calling me stupid, I still nodded my head.The only thing I thought of was to also look for a name like that to call him by. It would serve him right.My phone on the table vibrated. I thought that it was a text from Dave, so I hurriedly looked at it. Anyway, I was never expecting calls and texts from any other person.But I creased my brows when I saw that it was a text from Becky. Wasn't she out of the country?After Dave suspected that the shares that Sofia had acquired were because of the help of Mr. Williams, he tried to approach them.But he learned that the family had secretly relocated abroad. They had not even told Dad a thing.But because of the relationship that Dad had had with them over the years, he had decided to let things

    …On our fifth day on the island, things were still so fun. We spent the whole day exploring and having more fun.However, at night, we were just about to go to bed when I received a call. It was a new contact that I had not seen before.Dave was in the bathroom, so I decided to just pick it up.“Hello,” I said. It was funny that someone called me at such a time.“Mia…” I heard Denny's voice from the other side. And by the look of things, she was crying.“Denny, are you okay?“ I asked worriedly. Dave had told me that after Sofia escaped from the police cell, Denny had also gone missing.“Mia, can you help us, please?" she asked, crying even harder. “We don't have anything.“I was slightly taken aback. Denny was a princess who had been brought up with a silver spoon.“What happened? And who are you with?“ I asked. Was she trying to admit that she was with her mother?“Mia, I will be alone here at one o'clock tomorrow. Can you come over? I am a hidden warehouse along X X road."I sighed

    They laughed at me again. “We are not after money. We know how to be loyal,” one of them said.I sighed in disappointment. “Is it Sofia who asked you to kidnap me?“ I asked. And I could see the look of shock on their faces. It seemed like I had guessed right.“Miss, we are not going to disclose anything about our boss,” one of the men said. “Be obedient until you meet them.“I sighed. I knew that I was never going to convince them to let me go. But I had some hope since I knew that if it was really Sofia who wanted me, it would be easy for Dad and Dave to locate me.After all, once they found out that I was missing, Sofia would be their first suspect.The phone of one of the men rang. And he picked it up immediately. “Boss?“ He said.I perked my eyes so that I could hear the voice of the other person on the phone, but it was to no success. I did not hear a thing.“Yes, we are entering the airport now. We shall be there soon,” the man speaking on the phone said.And I froze in place. A

    "Boss, something bad happened." Fortune began speaking, but he stopped when he saw us.“Um, I think I am blind. I went to the wrong office. I saw nothing,” he said in fear, and the door was shut with a bang.I quickly got up from Dave's lap and looked away in embarrassment. I could never save my face again.What I did not expect was that Dave would also stand up. “Let us continue in the resting room,” he said, trying to pull me to the room connected to the office.But I yanked my hand away from him. “Not now,” I said. How could he still think of doing such a thing?“I am going to kill him!“ Dave cursed angrily. He took his phone and called Fortune. It was too late for me to stop him.“Get in here right now!" He shouted and went back to his seat. I looked at him with a sigh.A few seconds later, Fortune rushed into the office. There was a look of embarrassment on his face. “Boss, I did not see anything,” he hurriedly explained.I felt more embarrassed, and I tried not to look at him. T
