* Bang!*.

The glass of water which was holding fell on the floor.

" When last did you see your period?" she heard him repeat.

Valeria's cheeks became redder, this effect spread to her small ears. The question was very uncomfortable, could this man not see how uncomfortable she was now?

How could he ask such a private question? Shameless man

Rather, he was secretly enjoying seeing her being flushed. She played with her fingers as her lips quivered.

" I am asking because I can not think of any reason why tea would make one throw up. "Xander inquired as he sat on the glass table.

Val looked up guiltily at me with his empty eyes. She was not a virgin anymore so it could be a possibility. A possibility she dreaded at the thought, her responsibility was too much. She did not even have enough money to do anything at the moment.

His lips curved into a dangerous smile

He badly wanted to hug her but the distance between them was too big. So he took a few steps before exclaiming " What pleasant surprise Val,why are you here? " " I came along with a friend..." She said casually, feeling a bit fuzzy. " With a friend?.." Carl quickly looked around, he spotted Liza strolling ahead and she was waving at him, plastering a huge smile. Val smiled faintly as she pointed at Liza " With her?" " Yes" Liza was the one who replied first while Valeria only nodded. His gaze averted back to Valeria and his voice softened as he asked " Are you heading home? I can drop you .." " Yes. WE are heading home" Liza emphasized the ' we ' to make her presence known. She stood in between Val and Carl and kept stealing glances of Carl. ' Val is so lucky alway

    * Chapter 20 * At this point, he paused to look at her and continued to ask. She glanced at the expression on his face before turning her back to say " Two pink lines " " Congratulations " the doctor spoke out of formality. He saw the pale look on her face. " Don't worry! It will be difficult in the early months but it will all be worth it " Valeria smiled faintly. An array of thoughts occupied her mind. She did not want to get rid of the baby. It was against her morals. She could only stare as the doctor filled out some forms he stamped them. " I am a gynecologist call me anytime and make sure you come for every checkup marked in that document " Val smiled while taking the file. " I will " Truth be told, taking care of a baby will not be easy. However, the real problem was how to tell her grandmother this news. She imagined the disappointed look on her grandmother's face and it made her sad. She subconsciously placed her hand on her stomach and prayed silently

She quickly handed the file sputtering apologies. Val was lost in thought regarding the controversy which will tag along with the release of her pregnancy report.

    * Chapter 22 * In the boardroom... Xander sat emotionlessly without saying a word. His AEs were confused about whether to go or stay so they just stood in the same position for an hour. The door creaked open as Jude came in holding a first aid kid. Sitting on the table he grabbed Xander's arm to treat his bloody knuckles. " Wow! You could not get a single scratch from beating Jeff to a pulp so you decided to punch the walls " Jeff scoffed with his gaze diverting to the stream of blood on the wall. Taking a glimpse of his friend,he scoffed " Did you come to treat my wounds or add more salt?" Jude smiled. " Both " taking his seat by his friend,he opened up a first aid kit. Xander sighed" Give that to me. I am not a baby, I can tend to my wounds . " he said while taking the first aid kit. Jude only stared at his friend. " .." He had a lot of things to say but did not know how to begin. Using hand gestures, Jude said, " All of you take a day off ".

    * Chapter 23 * His conspicuous red Lamborghini quickly caught her eye. It shone as if it was just bought. " Are we taking that instead?" she asked pinning her hair behind her ears. She had the impression they would take the black Range rover. Xander nodded busily as he open the door for Val. Her face wiggled as she took a glance around. She wanted to avoid the rumors from growing. What will people think if they saw them driving around time add the Lamborghini was so eye-catching that it will make them the center of attraction anywhere they go. " What is wrong with this car? " She questioned pointing at the black Range rover. Rather than responding, he threw a question at her " I thought you were hungry? " he reacted as his face dimmed. She tossed her eyes draping her arms on her chest " I am fine. I will eat at the office canteen. You can go " " Really or conceivably you want to escape from treating me as you promised " Valeria's lips ma

    * Chapter 24 * Her heart pounded as the policeman walked closer. She tapped on his shoulder in panic. " I don't have a license " A smile found its way on his cute pink lips. He wanted to tease her but gave up the idea when he saw her panic turning to anxiety. " Be cool. Just relax" his hand gently rubbed her shoulder. How can she relax when she was going to be caught? Valéry did not want to go to prison again, the first time was not pretty at all. " I have a plan " the latter interjected followed by silence. It felt like light finally penetrated her darkness ,she diverted her gaze to meet his green eyes " What's the plan ?" A wicked grin cropped on his lips causing her stomach to churn. This was not going to be good. The police officer arrived, and he tapped on the windshield with his baton. " Why did you stop suddenly? Let me see your credentials!" The car drove passed the policeman at speed. Valéria was on Xander's thighs while he wa

When her eyes crashed with Xander's she shivered to bow instantly. Valeria took notice of this and just rolled her eyes. Being close to him at the moment, she could tell the aura he was emitting which will make anyone give him respect. " What will you have? " the waitress began in a super polite tone. Stealing a glance at Val,he proceeded " I will have a vegan salad and ... " Silently slumping on her seat, Val swallowed hard while the man ordered. ' On my god. Is he ordering all that food for both of us or what?' The waiter smiled as beads of sweat gathered on her forehead. She was afraid of missing any order from him. Heaving a sigh of relief,the waitress turned to Val " And you ma'am? " Val pupils dilated. She cleared her throat awkwardly.She began sweating e

She sought, pity overtaking her, and opted to help the girl stand. She was pushed by another. Val fell,her hand subconsciously on her stomach. A surge of anger coarse through her veins. The others whooped with laughter. She ogled at the figure who strutted away. " Are you ok? " Val called into question. The waitress dried her tears while her lips quivered" I am fine and you? " Val creased her eyes brows as her she balled her fist" How are you fine with all those nail scratches on you? Who the hell is she? " Valeria could not take it anymore. She bossed to attack the woman who did this to the waitress but the waitress stopped her. " Please don't! She is an influential customer. She got angry because the coffee I was carrying tipped on her boots. She said they were more expensive than both of my kidneys "

Giovanni, dressed in a white shirt matched with grey torn jeans, informs me as soon as we arrive at the destination. We can't take a look at my drug warehouse, as it is littered with fucking cops. This is getting out of hand. With the outnumbered list of enemies due to my father's lust, I don't know who is behind this. If I had, we would have played dentist, and I would blow up every tooth in his fucking mouth. I watched him bleed away. Fucker. I flex my hands on my thighs, something I do when I am stressed.

"Nothing," he tells me, faking an innocent expression. I look around the empty room, breathing heavily. I can't find anything but boxes in this room. They are all covered in dust.

"The truth is I can't believe it myself. Guys, I am scared," I whisper softly, afraid that the walls may have ears. I am now a mafia's wife. "You better, Rosé," Bali reminds me using my middle name, simultaneously giving Aiah the side eye. It has always been this way with them. Bali has no filter, whereas Aiah lives to sugarcoat situations. "As advice, you should get him on your side. Make him fall for you." "Bali!" Both Aiah and I gasp, widening our eyes in response. How can she suggest that?!

He called me by my nickname, meaning he was serious. I just announced that I am going to marry Sunshine today itself. I am acting out of character. I am a planner; everything I do is structured ahead of time. But with this girl, I am being spontaneous. "I am acting spontaneously," I say, deadpanning, flicking through the document in my hand. He laughs, shaking his head. "There is something more to do with this. Why are you in haste to marry this girl? Don't tell me you like her. Or is it because she called you an asshole?"

Also, make sure--" I stand in the kitchen with my mother, watching her give detailed instructions to the staff about the likes and dislikes of my future family. I zone out during her second lecture because my mind keeps going back to what I said to that man. I'm rambling uncontrollably, and now I can't help but wonder what he will think of me. "The real question is, why do you care what he thinks of you?" a nosy voice in my head asks, and I have no answer. I find myself feeling something for a man I don't even know, while preparing to marry another man for whom I feel nothing.

    Chapter 8; The groom is an asshole. Renzo's POV: I watch as she stumbles, her long legs elegantly poised in high heels and yet somehow completely out of balance. She has her eyes fixed on a lady making a call from the balcony. I can see the admiration in her eyes. Her outfit is far from traditional, and yet it suits her perfectly. The white mermaid dress trails behind her, sweeping across the floor like a graceful swan gliding across the lake. The dress is long, and yet there is a daring slit that ran up the side, revealing just enough leg to tantalize. Her blonde hair is styled to perfection, soft curls framing her face, like a halo of light. She looks every inch the goddess she is, even if she seems uncomfortable in the attire. I move to aid her, and she

Why wouldn't I be when I am getting engaged to the biggest mafia clan in the whole of New York? Ever since my parents confession a week ago, it has been a shopping spree for the marriage. And I still don't know what my groom looks like. I refused to see a photograph of him until today. Is he ugly or handsome? I wonder. What will his hands feel like?
