Morgan POV I want to have a taste of her lips again. She shouldn't hate me, yet. "You look beautiful," I whispered into her ear and walked away. I saw her smile, looking at me, but next, she showed a negative sign. "What's wrong, Tricia?" Cherry asked. "I don't feel good," Tricia said. "Should I get the doctor?" I asked, and Tricia shook her head. "Just a little rest," she said, and I nodded. I nodded and pointed to Cherry to take her up. "I will be going out, soon," I said. "Do you want me to get anything for you, Tricia?" "No, don't worry," Tricia said, and I nodded. Theresa moved close to me and whispered saying that I should give Tricia some time to accept me. "I will do so," I said. Minutes later, I walked up and got dressed, ready to meet my men. After dressing, I walked down with a smile on my face. Cherry was speaking with Theresa, and laughing heartily. It was a good thing to see Theresa with a friend. Ever since she started living with me, she respected me m
Morgan POV I walked down to meet my men. "Done resting?" Alonso asked, and I shook my head. "She is all over my head," I said. They all began to laugh, and Johnny expressed how happy he was that I got someone to think of. "I know that you aren't used to it," Johnny said. "Who are you to lecture me on love?" I asked. "Do you love anyone?" "No, I don't," he said. "Then don't lecture me," I said. "Find someone to love." "But I can," Drake said, and we all looked at him. I laughed hard, as I looked at Drake. "You can't lecture me," I said. "You aren't married. The only one who can lecture me is Jake who forsook his membership for love." When I got to know about my feelings after Tricia left the house, I envied Jake a lot. They call me their Boss, but now I can see that I am not the Boss in everything, especially my feelings. "What do you want to do with advice?" Alonso asked. "You do not need one." Was he mocking me? "Morgan!" Alex called me. "You don't need any." "Wha
Tricia POV Morgan didn't answer the call last night. Is he trying to ignore me? I let out a shrieking cry. When would he do this to me when I am pregnant for him? It was still early, and I doubted that anyone was awake. I couldn't sleep comfortably, and I woke up to the thought of Morgan not answering my calls. "Let me take my bath," I said. I slowly got up from the bed, took a cup of water then went to take my bath. Hours later, I heard a knock on my door and this made me excited. Someone was awake, and I felt happy. Opening the door, I couldn't believe my eyes. Morgan was standing with a tray. "Where is Cherry?" I asked, and he smiled. "In her room," he replied with a smile on his face. I rolled my eyes as he entered my room, and placed the tray on my bed. "I would like to feed you," he said. "I am not a baby, and don't want you here," I said, although my eyes were betraying me. Without a word, Morgan ordered me to sit on the bed. I tried to argue with him but gave in
Tricia POV The light from a house showed, and I remembered that I had been here many times. "Morgan!" I called. Turning off the ignition, Morgan looked at me. He moved closer to me, and I thought he wanted to kiss me. I moved my head back as he moved closer. Morgan, however, held my head up and drew the window up. This made me a bit sad, but I felt relieved when Morgan gave me a peck on my cheek. Only then, did I remember that two ladies were also in the car as I heard whispers. "Let's go down," Morgan said. He helped with unbuckling my seat belt. We were all out of the car and walked into the building. I remembered the last time I was in the building. "Hi," someone said and I turned to look at who it was. It was Drake who walked to Theresa. He held onto Theresa's hand and asked if they could leave together. "Yes, you can," Morgan said. "Get her back before we leave." "Alright," Drake said and left with Theresa. I looked around, then finally at Morgan. "This looks like
Morgan POV I looked at Tricia who smiled all through. I smiled remembering the kiss, and touched my lips. "Tricia!" I called holding her hands. Tricia's eyes met mine, and we remained like that, staring into each other's eyes, but when I drew closer to hold her, she moved back and turned to the stairs. "She is confused," Cherry said to me, and I sighed taking my seat. Every possible thing ran through my head. I thought a lot about Tricia. Theresa walked to the couch that I was seated on. She looked into my eyes and told me to take it easy on myself. "You have a lot of things to think of," she said. "Do not worry; she will come through in a few weeks." I looked at Theresa and smiled. Now, Theresa and Cherry have become my advisors, and this could only make me laugh. I have become soft ever since I fell in love with Tricia. My phone began to ring, and I excused myself. It was Max, and he only calls when something is wrong. "Hello, Maxwell," I said when I got to a secluded
Morgan POV The weeks were fast to go, and it was the time for Tricia to make her decision of staying with me, or not. I looked up to the heavens and prayed hard that Tricia would accept me. "It's great," I said, playing a game with Theresa. My mind wasn't on the game but on the thought of Tricia. "I know you are worried about her, but I believe that she would accept you," Theresa said, and I just smiled. If Tricia wanted to leave me, good, and if she doesn't, excellent. My friends told me last night that they were coming here to see Tricia make her decision, but I discouraged them. Inviting them over could make Tricia accept me when she doesn't want to. "I will let you know the outcome," I said last night. There was a sound on the stairs. We stopped the game and saw Tricia walk down with Cherry. They were holding hands like an inseparable twin. "Good morning," Cherry said. I sat properly on the couch that I was on while the ladies sat on another couch. "Let's start with T
Morgan POV "I also chose my silent life because of my former girlfriend's betrayal," I said. "When I got to know about you from your brother, I didn't only want to inflict punishment on you, but wanted to use you as a way for my heart to grow." My last words made everyone sigh. I planned on doing the right thing, though we won't be having our church wedding. They all hurled in surprise as I got down on one knee, and pulled out a ring box. Inside it was a diamond ring. "Tricia Bliss, will you choose to spend the lifetime with me?" I asked. Tricia fell on my cheek and kissed me. "Yes, I will," she said, and I slid the diamond ring into her finger. I got up to my feet and hugged her very well. I heard a knock on the door, and we all looked at it. "Come in," Theresa said. A man came in and spoke with Theresa for a while, then left. "Who is he?" I asked using one hand to hold Tricia, but she shook her head. As always, I do not force my team members to tell me any information
Morgan POV After talking to them, I walked back to the boss and told him what we had suggested. "You will work with us," I said. He looked at his two men who immediately nodded. "Alright, meet us here tomorrow," I said. "By 5 pm." He nodded, and immediately got up. We allowed them to leave but not without the dead body of their gang. My phone began to ring and I took it out of my pocket. "Hello," I spoke into the phone. It was a call from the governor. We spoke for quite a while, then I turned to my men. "Mr. Governor," I said as I always called him. "Sent a hundred thousand dollars to the group account." Theresa called her hand, although she looked shocked and I smiled. This week, the governor had sent us seven hundred thousand dollars, but we had a lot to do. "We should visit Main house orphanage to make some donations," I said, and they all nodded. I thought for a while then smiled. "I will give each of you a thousand dollars," I said. "We would make a change to all
Morgan POV I remembered the picture that I held the last day. Rivers was Theresa's brother. "You are awake," Tricia said. I smiled and gave her a peck on her forehead. My gaze went to Ethan's bed. "Our son is soundly asleep," I said. She laughed and told me how she had to keep Ethan down last night. "He is becoming more stubborn," she said. "Then I will take care of it," I said. I walked to Ethan when I sensed that he was awake. "Ethan, you are to take your bath now," He used his legs to hit my hand and smiled looking at his mother. Tricia smiled when she saw what Ethan did. I raised him to my arms and he struggled to get free. "Here we are," I said as I placed him in the bathtub. We played a little before I had his bath. "Today, I want to take us out for a fun time," I said as I walked out of the bathroom with Ethan. "Should we take our bath together?" Tricia asked. I didn't expect her to say that so I was a bit surprised. "We can't," I said thinking of how it wo
Morgan POV Two months had passed, and it was the day for Rivers's burial. He died a month ago. We all wore black as we stood by his grave. "Rivers, my brother, I remembered how you were," I said. Tricia stood beside me and held a flower. Drake and Theresa had come from their college to grace this occasion. He stepped forward with a flower and placed it on the grave. Tricia supported me but I couldn't help but feel angry. Why didn't he tell us what was happening to him? If it wasn't for Drake, we wouldn't have known about his issues. I held onto Tricia as I watched others walk to keep their flowers on Rivers grave. As the boss, my wife and I were to go last. We walked towards the grave to drop our flowers when they were done. I suggested that we should celebrate Rivers life in a restaurant. They accepted, and we left for a nearby restaurant. Our time of mourning was over, Rivers had been buried and now, life moves on. "Good morning," I heard a lady's voice while we were in
Tricia POV I chose to be stubborn even though Ethan's cry filled my heart. "Ethan, go to your father," I said. Morgan looked at Ethan, who held onto his leg. I could see him smiling and this gave me confidence to walk to him. Before I could say a word, Morgan slapped me. I felt extremely sad and my cheek stung. I looked around and saw people staring at us. This broke my heart and I left with Ethan. Entering the car, I told my driver to move. Maybe I was stupid when he slapped me. I stood there and looked angrily at him instead of pulling my gun on him. This idea made me smile. We got up and I walked up with Ethan, ignoring Felicia's call. In the room, I placed my phone on the side table while Ethan walked to his bed. Looking at my phone, I saw two missed calls and one voice message, they were all from Morgan. Taking a deep breath, I clicked on the voice message. In it, he pleaded with me and said that he would search for Cherry when his mood gets lighter. "Don't plead
Tricia POV I waited for Felicia to be done with whatever she was doing before I called my driver. "You didn't need to wait for me," she said. I told her that since it was our first day to come together, I chose to leave with her. "Alright," she said and brought out her phone. She asked if we could take her to the house she lived in with her husband. "What would you like to take there?" I asked. "A lot, just don't worry," she said. Soon, the car arrived and we got in and sat like sisters. Felicia directed us on our movement. "Stop!" She said when we got to a gate. I wanted to come with her into the house but she declined. Five minutes later, I got worried as I didn't see her come out so I decided to go in. "I will be back soon," I said to the driver. "Should I accompany you?" He asked. I remembered what Morgan told me about my driver but no, I couldn't allow him in. "No, don't worry," I said to him. This could scare Felicia. I felt safe as I was with my gun and could
Tricia POV Miranda greeted Felicia but didn't take her eyes off her. Soon, the day was clear, and Morgan decided to get Felicia a few things. Felicia behaved awkwardly, but I guessed she wasn't used to being treated the way we did. The doorbell rang, and I saw Felicia shake. "Felicia!" I called. "Don't be scared. I walked to open the door as it seemed like the person was an outsider. It was a delivery man. He asked if I was Felicia or Mrs. Bliss and later gave me a package. "Mr. Bliss told me to deliver this to Felicia Bliss," he said after I signed and then left. I called Felicia and asked her to check it out. "Who is it from?" She asked. "Morgan," I said. Felicia opened the box and looked through everything. "Where is Morgan?" She asked. "I do not know," I said. As soon as those words left my mouth, the door flew open and Morgan stepped in. "Thank you, Morgan," Felicia said. I asked him where he was but he ignored by going out. It's been long since he last ignored
Tricia POV While we were in the restaurant, I held Felicia's hand. "What are you doing, Mrs. Bliss?" She asked me. "Quit the formality," I said. "Call her sister-in-law," Morgan said making me blush. "But I am not...," she was saying. I placed a hand on her lips as I knew what she wanted to say. She might not be related to Morgan by blood, but they had a bond when they were young. I wanted to feel like I knew someone from Morgan's family. We left the restaurant when we were done eating. Miguel drove to the group's house and I wondered why he did that. "Hold on," we said to Felicia as we got out of the car. Morgan advised that I locked all the doors for the safety of Felicia. She wasn't a member of the group so there was no need for her to come along with us. Getting into the car, I saw Felicia's head buried in her lap. It felt like she was weeping. "Felicia!" I called. Morgan turned back and looked at us. "You should let her be," he said. "She is going t
Morgan POV After taking my bath, I walked down with my family. My phone began to ring, it was Johnny. He asked me about my plans to get Mr. Adolf to confess. "Felicia chose the surname of her foster parent rather than her husband's name," I said. "It means that she isn't happy with him." I looked away from the phone and then thought for a while before speaking. "I will go in as a commoner," I said. "What if he knows who you are?" Johnny asked. He could say nothing to stop me. The only thing that they can do is to follow me. "How many would be coming?" I asked. "Five," he said. "Names?" He mentioned five names, but why wasn't Alonso included? "Alonso?" I asked. "He has a business ordeal," he replied. I sighed knowing that I had never interfered in their personal business. "Alright, come along with Maxwell," I said and ended the call. Tricia placed a hand on my shoulder. "I trust you to bring justice," I smiled hearing this and kissed her hand. "I am forever grateful
Tricia POV The week passed as quick as possible and we were in a new week. I woke up and took Ethan to bath. It has been a struggle to take his bath ever since I got home from being kidnapped. "Ethan, be easy," I screamed. He was stubborn, and I guess he got that trait from his father. Turning back, I saw Morgan glaring at me. "I can take care of him," Morgan said. "Alright," I said handing Ethan's towel to him. I walked down as I didn't want to hear Ethan's scream. Thirty minutes later, Morgan walked down with Ethan. "You should go to bath," he said. I nodded and was about to go up when Ethan walked to me and shook his head. He rested his head on me, and I knew that he was sorry for behaving stubbornly. "You should be gentle next time," I said. Morgan laughed and when I asked for the reason he laughed, he said, "You wanted a male child who will behave like me." His words made me smile. I walked up the stairs with a smile on my face. After dressing, I walked down and Mo
Morgan POV We walked into the car and I drove home since Theresa and Drake were going to be less busy for two days. "Ethan!" Theresa called as I drove. Tricia wore a frown on her face. I knew that she was angry with the way I did. Parking the car at a side, I told everyone that Tricia was going to drive the car. Soon, Tricia sat in the driver's seat, and I could hear Ethan hail his mother, although he couldn't speak. It was a slow ride but it was nice. "Let's go to the complex," I said to Tricia. "Why?" She asked trying her best to keep her eyes focused on the road. It looked funny that she was trying to behave like me. This was the reason she was slow. "You aren't a master so keep your gaze low," I said to her. "Alright," she said. Taking my advice, her driving was a little bit faster. "To the complex," I said. We got to the complex, and Tricia held my hands before I got out of the car. "Who are you here to see?" She asked. I knew that she knew that I wasn't going t
