My heart pounded hard in my chest as I walked inside the company a few minutes after the Uber I booked dropped me off at the front of the gate.

"So, are you coming?" "Uhm... I'm sorry, but I don't think I'll be able to. I need to head home first," I hurried out of the hall afterwards. As I strolled down the walkway minutes later, heading to Knox's office, I spotted him leaving the office just before I got there, so I called his attention.
Chapter 27 Olivia Cruz POV 'Will you go out with me?' What do you think my answer to his question would be? Yes? Well, that was what I intended to say to him. Even if I wasn't sure of how I felt about him, he was a nice guy and for the first time, I really wanted to experience what genuine love wa

“Baby is that even a question? There’s no way I’m missing your baby shower. Don’t worry. I’ll be back on time to help plan it plus I’ll be bringing Ryan!.” Claire said excited. “Alright baby. I love you. Have fun.” I said to Claire before ending the call. I stirred slowly as Knox tapped me lig
Chapter 120 Olivia’s POV ONE YEAR LATER “Darling we’re gonna be late. Hurry up!.” Knox yelled out from the living room. I rolled my eyes at how excited he was. We were going to the hospital for a scan to see the gender of our baby. A year had passed since that awful incident where Dant
Whoever had taken her had her kept hostage within the city. I gave a sigh of relief at that knowing it would not take too long to get her back. The police had tried to stop me from going with them but I refused. I had to see Olivia and i had to know who had done this. Who had dared take her away
Chapter 119 Knox’s POV I sighed as the detective told me the same thing he’s been spitting for the past three weeks. For three weeks my fiancé was no where to be found. It wasn’t the case of her running away because her car had been seen at the mall. Everyone’s guess was she had been kidnapped

“What? What if someone sees us together? Don’t you think I’ll be the first person police will come looking for?.” Emily asked. “Fuckin do what I said! Why don’t you ever listen to me? Huh! You like to get me angry right?! Is that it?!.” I yelled at Emily and she flinched. “No..no..th..at’s not
Chapter 117 Dante’s POV I groaned as Emily asked me the same question for the umpteenth time in an hour. “Emily, I’ve told you there’s nothing to worry about. Nobody will see us as far as you stick to the plan.” I said irritated. “Dante it’s not that easy. Do you even have any idea what w
“Grand ma I swear, I tried my best. I did everything I could but in the end...” “In the end you fell in love with the same girl you were going get the cornea from. About that, I hear that you made another foolish mistake of marrying her and giving her everything this family ever labored for. I’m a
