I dialed Preston. A private investigator. He used to be working with the FBI.

He worked for me and some of my friends.

“Preston speaking,” he said on the other line.

“Preston, this is Stavros Demakis,” I began as I fiddled with my pen.

“Stavros my friend. What can I do for you, young man?” He said cheerily.

“I want you to check on someone.” I clench my jaw with the thought of Krystina’s scheme.

“Sure thing, my friend. And, who is this?” He asked curiously.

“I will email everything I need to know, including her latest affairs and activities. I’ll pay you double or triple, no question about that.”

“I’ll do it for you, Stavros! Sounds like this certain, ‘her,’ is dear to you,” he teased.

“I’ll be back in New York for another three days,” I said in dismissal tone, ignoring his playful mood.

“Sure thing. Until then, my friend,” he stated as he hung up the phone.

I let out a loud breath.

I know there’s something going on.She doesn’t look like the girl my grandson would be interested in.It’s not that she’s not pretty. In fact, she is gorgeous with a gorgeous body. But I felt there’s something more than a beauty.“Explain, Stavros,” I encouraged with a blank expression. I put my hands in my pocket while waiting for his words.“She’s Krystina, an old friend papou,” was all he said.He looks like he lost a billion dollars. Those taut muscles, his back ramrod when he saw her, it was now slowly deflating.I can feel how he felt right now.My poor grandson!I know the kind of this woman. I’ve been in this industry where everyone has their own motive. “I’m pregnant,” she blurted out.Everyone’s eyes snapped in her direction. Then it shifted to Stavros waiting for a confirmation.

    The party at Mailov’s Villa was two and a half months ago, which means she’s two weeks pregnant when she attended that party.And as if Preston can read my mind, he spoke. “Before the party at your friend’s, she stayed at Andrew’s penthouse for nearly two weeks. Hitting the club most of the nights and home drunk. The only person who can confirm this is Andrew Petrakis. He could be the father of her pregnancy. The picture of her and Andrew at the restaurant was just taken recently,” he explained.He stood up and tapped my shoulder. “The baby is not yours, Stavros. Whoever is the father of that baby isn’t what mattered now. What matters is…, you are not the father!” Then he left with his last words reeling in my head.I was still standing there, trying to analyze and absorbed all that news.I have to meet Andrew.I’ll kill that bastard.I sat upright.

    Krystina’s POV My phone kept ringing. And it’s Andrew.“What does he want from me? I thought it’s all clear to him?” I thought, getting irritated.I answered the phone. “What?” I snapped.“We need to talk, Krystina,” he said sternly.Why, out of the blue, he became cold and bossy?“We already settled everything between us a week ago, Andrew. It’s over between us. I’m getting married. And you’re not going to ruin it!” I snapped angrily. “The baby is mine, Krystina. I WON’T LET SOMEONE RAISE MY CHILD! And, don’t deny the fact that I am the father Krystina, because I know very well that you’re pregnant before that party. I saw the pregnancy test you threw in the garbage, but I kept my mouth shut because I wanted you to tell me. And, one more thing, I know that you and Stavros never had sex, or you won’t come running in my room that night,” he growled with suppressed rage. My whole body tensed. Worries settled in my gut. My hand involuntarily touched my unnoticeable bump.“I’m not going
