Ilayda's POV :
what the hell?
WHAT. THE. HELL. DID. SHE. JUST. DO?
"Excuse me, what are you doing to my brother"Maribelle seemed very upset while the two other women seemed totally happy. Christian pushed Nathalie away from him.
"Sorry, I just missed the touch of your lips" she was caressing his lower lip with her thumb.
"Nathalie, please don't ever do that again" he took a step back and I was silently thanking God.
"But why? We used to kiss all the time"
"Well, used to, but now I-" Christian was interrupted by his mother.
"Nathalie, why don't you go to your room and take some rest, lunch will be served soon" Nathalie let go of Christian.
"You" I looked at Mrs. Elfonso and she was addressing me.
"What are you standing there doing? Go get their thing up to their rooms and them come to get lunch ready" I nod and went upstairs, Christian was giving me an apologetic look.
Ilayda's POV:Yesterday I fell asleep in Christian's arms, it felt like home I was at peace again. He was still asleep when I woke up and kept studying every little detail of his face, his forehead, his eyebrows, his long lashes, his soft shiny lips. God, he is so... beautiful.Sometimes I look at him and wonder what does he see in me I was a disaster while he's at the top, but I do know one thing; I'm falling deeper and deeper for him every single second. I just felt the urge to kiss him so I gave him a small peek in the chin trying not to wake him but he apparently started to wake up, I quickly went back to my place."You know baby this body is all yours feel free to stare as much as you want," he whispered in my ears with his husky voice which sent chills in my body."You were awake" it wasn't a question but he nods staring intensely into my eyes, I got a little embarrassed and I could feel my cheeks turning red s
Christian's POV :Every single time, this seems suspicious to me, the way she gets nervous each time Madame Dubois asks her a question, I can tell when she is lying, and she's lying each time she's been asked and I'm determined to know what she is hiding. I have the right to. I tried to be patient, and wait for her to tell me on her own. However, she never came to me; she never opened up to me. What I am about to do is bad but it is for her own sake. I LOVE this girl, and something tells me that she could be in trouble and I know her stubborn ass will never ask for help, so if I want to help her I'm going to help her in my own way, but I need to find out what is she hiding first.I went to the company, I also needed to leave the house ASAP that Nathalie girl won't let me breathe, she's like that gum stoc
Christian's POV :I did not know what to expect and this guy was taking his sweet time opening the file, he looked at me."I've never seen something like this before" he was very serious"What do you mean? What is it?" I couldn't hold it any longer I was boiling from the inside."Sir, the name you gave me, Ilayda Salvador, I was only able to find it in the orphanage records. Also, everything that has happened lately. Nothing out of the ordinary, she was given to a family but they returned her do to some trouble the guy who's supposed to be her new father wasn't good with her. When she became eighteen years old, she got out and got into the work of being a maid that is how she was hired in your house. T
Ilayda's POV :Mr. Elfonsi called henry, some other guards while Christian and the rest of us remained silent watching his every move and listening to every word."We're leaving in fifteen minutes pack your things and make it quick bring only necessary things," he told us as he went upstairs probably to his room, so we all practically ran to our rooms before Christian held my hand"Finish packing and come to me okay?" I nod and he gave me a small smile.Lucky for me, I do not have that many things so packing was easy. I didn't have that many clothes and what I have can easily fit in a small bag so I was able to take everything and especially the last thing my father gave me right before his death, a gun, a golden gun.I have had it for many years now since I last saw my father. However, I never touched it but this time something inside me tells me to take it with and so I did. I made sure to hide it well inside of th
Christan's POV :Today no matter what the truth will be revealed I'm going to do whatever it takes to know what's going on and this time my father can't stop me.I went downstairs leaving everyone in their rooms, I know that this conversation should be between me and father, who was downstairs sitting in the living room, I think that he too knows that it's time he starts speaking and stops hiding. He can't hide things any longer because the truth is going to be revealed sooner or later.I went next to father and sat in front of him, he mentioned with his finger for me to sit closer"Father""Son"We both spoke at the same time, the tension in that place was too high. I nod mentioning to father to speak first."Look, I know that I've been hiding a lot of things, but I want you to know that everything I did was only for your own good. I know I'm a hard man to deal with and I made your life a
Christian's POV :Father asked me to get out of the house, I guess whatever he's about to say he didn't want to be heard.we were sitting on a bench he looked at me and gave me a small smile" you may not know it son or I might not show it but I do love all of you so much and I do care" he looked at my eyes for a moment " I suppose you want to know what happened next? " I nod."We had a beautiful life for few years, Fernando manages to hide our tracks and he was very good at it and soon I had you, my first baby boy, and then he also had a baby girl, our business was doing good no one knew about us and we were happy about that, but one day somehow someone recognized us and knew exactly who we were, and the words went to EL Patron "Father looked and continue on"First the boss wanted to kill us but then he had other plans for us, at that time our company was starting to grow and we became powerful in the
Ilayda'sPOV :I woke up this morning feeling someone's arms holding my waist, I knew it was Christan, I tried to wiggle my way out but all I end up doing was being pushed closer to the warm body next to me"No....mhm....stay....stay with me" he whispered with his husky sleepy voice and for some reason, it was such a turn-on."Baby wake up it morning already" I turned around so that I can face him, he was still closing his eyes, I touched his beautiful face and kissed him slightly and quickly on the lips but he ends up pushing me further to him and deepening the kiss" no, baby, morning breath" I was trying to get out from his hold but his arms were firm around me"Sweetheart you know I don't give a fuck about that so come here" I smiled and let him do what he wanted.Waking up next to him had sort of became a routine and a necessity for me, I don
Christan's POV :I called my secretary and asked her to call Mr. Ferera, he was the lawyer of our firm and by his relationship with my father, I knew that he knew everything. I'm going to pull the first trigger and let's see what are they going to do.My phone was ringing, it was Jack the jackass my so-called friend, but I didn't answer, I stopped talking to him the minute he decided to put his eyes on my baby girl, no one does that, and besides I don't have time for friends right now, and it's better if I don't get them inside this shit.Moments later, there was a knocking on my door" come in ." it was my secretary she's not an old lady but not a young girl either, not that typical blonde spoken hot secretary everyone is looking for, she's rather a classy forty years old lady, my father once told me, when I asked him to get a new one ' i can trust her with my life, if you can get me someone like that, then yo

"I'm going to be asking questions and you answer"I nod."So Ilayda what does it feel like to be about to marry the one and only Christan Elfonso?"The camera was again pointed at me."Well, I'm not sure how to answer when you put it like that.

""No, I couldn't get anything because they were off, there is no recording of today ""What the... ? Someone is playing us," she thought deeply"Go look for her but stay awake, there is something weird happening in this hospital "All the men went to look for what their boss asked them to, but there was no sign of the girl which only drove their boss angrier.
