~Gabriella’s POV~

I had a week-long reservation at The Hills International Hotel. They were establishing a new hotel, and my little studio was contracted to photograph their new cuisine and rooms for an upcoming magazine. It was a fantastic bargain for both myself and my staff. The shoot began early this morning. I wasn't going to make it to Xander's school, and there was no way I was going to ask Chloe. The lady was struggling to take a breath. I took my phone from my pocket and dialed Grandma's number. I informed her that I would be out of town on business and would not be able to pick up Xander as usual. Grandma said she'd send a driver to pick him up.

The Hills were said to be the city's rulers. What exactly am I saying? They're in charge of the whole nation. I'd heard they were wealthy. I sometimes wonder whether Grandma Felicia was the owner of all of it. She was the only Hills I knew, but Grandma was usually at home, so she couldn't have owned and operated all of these enterpri

    ~Javier’s POV~While most women would have leaped at an offer to dine with the assistant CEO, Gabby scowled, knitted her brows, swiftly shifted her expression to smiling and searched for an excuse to refuse the invitation, and walked away without giving him another opportunity to arrange another meeting. I knew she was still around since we were catering for her and her staff. So I went to my suite to change. I was dressed in track trousers and a vest. I phoned the hotel management and requested him to send someone to my room with a bottle of wine and two glasses. Someone came to my door after five minutes and handed me the wine. I exited my apartment and went to Gabriella's. When I arrived at her suite, I saw her reclining on the sofa, chatting on the phone. It's as though she forgot to shut the door. I walked in and shut the door. I didn't want to interrupt her phone conversation."I love you, sweetie," she said. "Don't be concerned; Saturday will be all about you and me. Give Grand

    ~Gabriella's POV~I had a lot of questions, and I'm now a tomato. Why am I still drawn to a man who ruined my life? How did he get access to my suite? Why did he act as though this was his first meeting with me? What is he looking for? Is he aware of Xander's existence? Certainly not! He could not possibly be aware of Xander. I pushed everything aside and approached him. "Mr. Hills, What are you doing exactly in my suite? I thought that everything was in order and that the shoot would take place the next day. Did I exclude anything by chance? " Rather than answering, he locked his stare on me with desire. This will be a difficult task. Why does my body crave him? I made a pledge to myself that I would never fall for another man. Why is he any different?"Is everything all OK, Mr.Hills?" Then I overheard him murmuring.Fuck!charging in my direction.*****Since Gabriella exited the restroom, Javier's eyes have been busily disrobing her. He was oblivious to her words. All he could thi

    ~Javier’s POV~"I had no idea where to look for you. I looked for you. I first became aware of your full name this year when you announced your engagement to your fiancée. I had no idea who you were at the time." She said sobbing."What did you do when you found out about me?""I was certain that I would not end your marriage. As a result, I chose to leave things alone. How did you find out we had a son?"She has turned me over and was now riding me. We were squabbling for supremacy, and there was no way I would lose to this girl."I've known your kid for an extended period. I'm hoping she doesn't clutch my balls again. I had no idea he was mine. Grandma always accompanies him. Grandma always assumed Xander was my son, but I informed her that he was not, and then Grandma came to my office last week and inquired about Gabriella. That was the moment I realized Xander was mine."And you decided to do nothing about it, right?" She gripped and squeezed my balls with such force that I gaspe

    ~Gabriella's POV~"What, leave a message with you?""I apologize if you were offended, ma'am. You may perhaps call him in 15 minutes' time. I need to get some slumber."She hung up the phone after saying that. She cracked a grin. Did Javier request that she answer his fiancée's phone call? What exactly is going on? Isn't he afraid she'll find out he slept with someone? Javier and his fiancée share what sort of relationship? Gabriella couldn't help but be curious. The bathroom door opened while she was still deep in contemplation, seeing Javier with just a towel. His massive shoulders, powerful chest, sharp abs like white marble, and his two distinct v-cut abs drew her attention to what was concealed behind the towel. Gabriella had the sensation that smoke was escaping from her brain. Javier's physique was reminiscent of that of a Greek deity. Gabriella found it difficult to focus when she saw the man's tattoo and abs like that. She began to become drenched all over again.Seeing Javie

    ~Javier’s POV~We were getting ready, and I was staring at Gabriella, and I knew I wanted her. I've known since last night that she'd be Mrs. Hills. I can't let her go again, and I desperately want my son. She is my son's mother, and I must make things right. I grabbed her shoulders and yanked her up onto the bed."Gabriella, I know you won't believe me when I say this. That night I got a phone call informing me that Grandma had been brought to the hospital. I was still inebriated and had sent my driver away that night, but I drove drunk and had an accident. I was brought to the hospital and released three months later. I went looking for you. I had no idea you were pregnant, but I went looking for you because I felt you and I had something special. I desired you back then, but for a different reason, and I know what I want now. I want to start a family with you. I'm interested in both you and Xander. Please do not refuse. I realized I had made a mistake. I should have searched for yo

    ~Gabriella’s POV~Do I really want another child with Javier Hills? No, Javier and I are strangers to one another. I would be irresponsible if I had another child with him. Though I doubt I will get pregnant, I am still trying to improve myself. I am not bringing another kid with him. Gabriella hurried outside in preparation for her photoshoot. She entered a drugstore and purchased a morning-after pill and a bottle of water. Javier plucked the tablets from Gabriella as she was ready to consume them. "How in the world, did you follow me? What the fuck are you doing, Javier?" "What do you think you are doing?" "What does it look like I’m doing? Do you want me to become pregnant yet again? Are you serious?" "Do you intend to murder my child, Gabriella?""Is that what you want to accomplish?" "I would not have gotten pregnant that year if I had known about the pill, so leave me alone." I took the pill from Javier and gulped it. "You and I need to talk, and I will not tolerate this b

    ~Grandma Felicia’s POV~I was watching the news regarding stock prices when I heard the doorbell ring. I spotted one of my workers getting the door. Xander was napping on my lap. I didn’t want to let go of this kid. I question now whether I love Javier more. I suppose this chap here has stolen my heart. He is simply too precious. I moved my site to the direction of the entrance and my gaze collided with that of Mrs. Williams. I wonder what she wants."Mrs. Williams. What a lovely surprise! Have a seat." She smiled and her attention dropped to Xander, and I think I noticed a grimace on her face. Not that I care. I summoned one of my workers to come and put Xander to bed. Mrs. Williams' eyes widened when she spotted Xander, and I knew the sight signaled the kid was a carbon copy of Javier, so I pretended I didn’t see anything."It's been long since you paid me a visit, Mrs. Williams. Hope everything is okay.""Mrs. Hills I am here to speak about Sandra and Javier. They have been engaged

    ~Javier’s POV~Throughout the session, Gabriella pretended not to recognize me and addressed me as Mr. Hills. Did she not hear that she has been renamed Mrs. Hills? Could it be that she is still enraged about what occurred earlier? I believe I can handle the cold Gabriella, what is it that she likes? This is really incredible. I have no knowledge of the lady I intend to marry, the mother of my kid, whom I have just spat all over due to my anxieties. Perhaps I should contact Grandma and enquire about Xavier's mother's preferences. The phone rang, and Grandma answered immediately."Exactly the person I wanted to speak with.""Well, hello to you too, Grandma. Where has Xavier gone?""You and I need to talk before you speak with Xavier. Have you met Gabriella?""Yes, Grandma, I accidentally enraged her and am searching for a way to apologize, but I'm not sure what she prefers. That is why I want to find out what Xavier's mother enjoys.""Did Sandra meet Gabriella?""No, Grandma, where are

    ~Zion's POV~ It’s been a month since I came back from the hospital. Maya did an excellent job managing the company, and it was a clever decision on her part to invite Lucas to serve as Vice President. For quite some time, I have had it in mind to promote Lucas to the position of Vice President. After Maya delivered birth, my original intention was to get him elected vice president of the company so that I could spend more time with my family while Lucas managed the company. I have no idea how Maya was able to deal with Jacob. My little Bunny could be quite fearsome sometimes. Everything was just as good as I left it. Additionally, there were positive financial flows. I looked at the time and then shut down my laptop so that I could start making my way home. I am in desperate need of some quality time with my children. They are already calling me dada. Yea, I am a fucking dada right now, and it’s the best feeling ever. I closed my laptop, left my office, and asked the driver to head st

    ~Maya’s POV~I cautiously opened my eyes and saw my entire family piled into my bed while I heard muffled conversations going on around me. It’s giving me a terrible headache. I got out of bed and sat down slowly.“What happened?” I asked, not sure what was going on.“You fainted, and the doctor said it was due to stress, so we brought you home.” Then I had the sudden realization that there had been gunshots at the hall of justice today immediately after the court had finished.“Where is Ivy?” As I kept an eye on her, I noticed that she was looking down. I rose up.“I’m sorry Maya, but she deserved it. She could have killed you. It’s possible that the kids would have grown up without a mother.“I know, but you could have gone to jail too, sis.”“Well, that was self-defense. She was lucky that I aimed for her leg. I could have aimed for her skull.”“Ivy!”“What!”“You are not a murderer. Where did you get a gun?”“Well, if you mess with my family, I can be a murderer.”“Okay, where did

    ~Maya’s POV~The high court was situated on one of the busiest streets in M-City. It was smack dab in the heart of M-City. My family and I got out of the cars and strolled in, and we watched as Kelly and her family did the same thing. Her parents were successful in getting her released on bail. It is a mystery to me how that took place in the absence of a trial, yet this is where the fight took place. The family feud between the Archers and the Martins was what everyone was talking about. Kelly gave me the once over from head to toe, but after that, she began behaving as though she was extremely mentally disturbed. However, I am not easily duped. Because of this, I am currently one step ahead of them. We sat down and waited for the court to start. Today, the courtroom was noticeably busier than it typically was, most likely as a result of the presence of two of the most infamous families. I could hear murmurs and whispers filling the large hall as everyone tried to predict the outcome

    ~Maya’s POV~I carried the agreement with me as I walked out of my office, which I had drafted for Jacob Martin earlier. I exited the hallway and entered the conference room. I took my stand and addressed the press. I watched as Jacob Martin arrived and then I went on to announce that Archer Group would now be partnering with Martin Cooperation. The press took pictures. One thing I know is that Joseph will not have the chance to read the document he is signing. As he took the stand next to me, he gave me a piece of paper with an insulin vial. After taking a quick glance at the paper and the vial, I slipped it onto my blazer. It was the amen of the drug Kelly used on my husband. I gave Josepher the agreement and, as expected, he didn’t go through the whole document.Stupid man.As I saw him sign the document, a grin spread across my face. After the conference, I made a dash for the hospital to find Zion’s doctor and handed the piece of paper and the vial to him, despite the fact that I

He had 50 minutes to come up with a solution, and he knew there was no way to buy out time; the girl was deadly. He was perplexed as to why the girl seemed so icy compared to Zion.Why did Zion let me have my way?

    ~Maya’s POV~ After I was searched and they didn’t find anything on me, the three women finally opened the door for me. “Is this how you treat all your business acquaintances, Jacob?” I don’t care to fucking call him Mr. Martins. For all I care, he does everything like a man wearing panties on his skull. Stupid man. I reserve the title of Mr. only for people who have earned my respect. I flashed him a grin that did not reach my ear. I really don’t have the time. Thanks to my husband for always wearing a cold face in the outside world, I can cope with wearing one for this idiot in front of me. “Well, you can’t blame me. You sent my daughter to jail after recording your conversation with her.” “Fair enough.” I didn’t wait for him to ask me to take a seat. I helped myself. “I didn’t know you had company.” “Well, I didn’t know you were coming. Mrs. Archer.” “That makes sense,” I remarked. Looking closely at the old man, I am about to finish today. “If you came to talk about my daught

    ~Maya’s POV~My already swollen eyes hurt from the bright light that was coming in through the window, and I let out a low groan in response. After kicking off the blankets, I got out of bed and went straight to the bathroom to shower. I have no idea how Zion manages to pull it off, but running a successful business is no easy feat. I focused on relaxing and letting the water take care of everything else. I really, really miss Zion’s touches, and right now I’m so hot it’s not even funny. I gave a low groan as I pinched my tits and let out the sound. I slowly made my way down until my fingers hit my clit. I made a circling motion on my clit. I was so frustrated that I got out of the shower when I realized I wasn’t going to receive what I wanted. I walked back into the shower after pulling out the Dildo that I had purchased a week ago. I started touching myself, thinking of everything that Zion could have whispered in my ears. I am thinking of all the places my husband could have touche

    ~Maya’s POV~I didn’t interrupt the woman in front of me as she went on and on about how I stole Zion from her. I just kept staring at her.“Bitch, he was never yours! Archie was mine.” I swear I’m starting to hate the Archie name.“I take it that you are in agreement that you drugged my husband, and that you abducted my daughter,” I said in a calm voice.“Yes!”Immediately she said ‘Yes’, I made sure to cut off everything before she changed her mind.“I mean, no, you’re recording this, aren’t you?” I smiled. She came charging at me with the intention of slapping me, but I was quicker than she was. I grabbed her hand and turned it around before pinning her to the office desk. I got my face closer to her ear and leaned forward.“I am knowledgeable about how to handle a raving lunatic such as yourself. You are in for a surprise if you believe that we have reached the end of our conversation. I will corner you in such a way that not even your family will be able to help you in getting ou
