View More**Roxanna's POV**I stood in front of the gigantic mansion which I had acquired the moment I came back to the country. I heaved a long deep sigh as I got out of the car and headed straight into the mansion. I looked at the time and saw that it was 9pm. Joel, might be sleeping now or at least, I hope. He rarely sleeps when I'm not around. As soon as I got into the mansion, I was met by the nanny, who stood by the door and quickly took my bag from me. “Welcome home, miss Austina.”"Thank you, Pearl. Tell me, is Joel sleeping now?” I asked as I headed to my room upstairs. “I tucked him in, but he wanted me to leave and not put him to sleep, so I did just as he asked. Though I had planned to go see him after an hour,” the maid explained as she followed behind me, carrying my purse. “You did good. Joel doesn't like sleeping with anyone around. But I can assure you that he's not sleeping.”“My goodness!” The maid exclaimed. Immediately I paused and turned around to face Pearl, who see
Tyson's POVMy phone buzzed on my table, I quickly took a glance at the caller and noticed it was her. I shut my eyes and took a deep breath. “Aren't you going to pick up, Lord Tyson?”I looked in the direction of Osas who seemed to be curious about the caller. “It's none of your business.”“Woah! Now I'm curious about whom this caller is,” he quickly rushed to the table, but before he could grab a hold of my phone, I swept it off the desk. “Oh come on, Lord Tyson, who is this caller? Don't tell me it's Paula?”“Who else?”"I thought as much. But you both are engaged, and I must say that she's hot. So why are you cold towards her? Isn't she the woman you've been looking for?"I blinked at my friend's question. “What has that got to do with this?”“Everything. I've never seen you so interested in a one-night stand and when I kicked against searching for her, you didn't listen, and now you found her. Isn't she the woman you've always wanted? Isn't the s*x good anymore?”“Don't make
Roxanna's POVRight before my very eyes, the doctor read my pulse and took my heartbeat with his stethoscopes. Not only that, he also examined my eyes. Well, good thing she already has a doctor at hand. I'm sure he'll notice that indeed I'm not feeling well. After the doctor was done, he suddenly paused, staring down at me with a confused expression. I blinked, confused at this action. “Tell me, Steven, what's her diagnosis?”“Well, the thing is…from the diagnosis carried out, it shows that your daughter here, is two weeks pregnant.”“What?!” Lady Diana and I screamed at once, wide-eyed. “I'm serious. Clearly without a test I can tell what's wrong with a sick person, isn't that why you wanted me here in the first place, Lady Diana?”I blinked and slowly placed my hand on my stomach? I'm… Pregnant? How did this happen? I shook my head. I was clouded with utter frustration. Did I get pregnant by a stranger? Oh my God, what have I done to myself! “Roxanna, so you've been deceiving
Roxanna's POV # A Week laterThe engagement ceremony took place in our house. The thought of meeting Klaus made me sick to the stomach. While I was looking around, I suddenly set eyes on Paula, wearing a white lace dress with silver stones designed all over. She was wearing a tiara and who doesn't know about me would think she's the one getting engaged. I just stood at a corner watching her. I wasn't that dressed up as I wore a simple yellow sunflower dress, white heels and held my hair into a ponytail. This was because I have no idea what will become of me after meeting Klaus. I want to keep a low profile, just in case he breaks off the engagement. An hour passed and Klaus still hadn't arrived. At this point, I was having a bad feeling about the whole event. Just then, they called for a family photo. What the hell? A group family photo when the groom in question hasn't even arrived? “Roxanna, come over here,” my Stepmom urged with a smile on her face. I can't believe this. Isn
Roxanne's POV ****I woke up and yawned deeply. I don't understand why, but this seemed to be the best sleep I've ever had in years. I rubbed my eyes and gently opened them, only to find myself in a room I could barely recognize because it was dead dark. What is this place? The moon was the only light that shone in the room, which was bright and full. I decided to roll off the bed when I suddenly felt cold to the bones. Why am I so cold, like I wasn't putting on anything? I slowly took my hand to my chest, only to realize that I wasn't truly putting on clothes. Immediately, I let out a shocked gasp. Not only that, I also felt a little tingling sensation down there, like it had been bruised. Just then, I heard a groan coming from someone who seemed to be beside me, and this startled the shit out of me. My heart skipped when I noticed the silhouette of a man beside me. He had broad shoulders that seemed to fill the bed and a sword tattoo crossed in the middle of his back.What h
Roxanne's POV“Dad, please, you can't just marry me off to him, we have to be in a relationship first!”“Well, I thought you've always had a crush on him since you were in high school, so what happened now?”“Nothing happened. I would rather not be in a contract marriage with a man who possibly might not actually like me.”“So, are you saying you can't marry him?”“Dad, please be rational.”“What, are you saying we are thoughtless about this marriage?” Lady Diana asked, staring at me with her artificial lashes, which almost touched the roof of her eyelids. “The only way you can escape marrying Klaus Raymond is if I disown you, and you really don't want me to do that.”My mouth fell open in a gasp when my dad threatened to disown me if I refused to do his bidding. “Mark, calm down, I'll talk to her. What's wrong with you, Roxanna? The least you can do is agree to this marriage after everything that we have done for you.”I can't believe them. Why did they suddenly want to pair me wit
