"Mr Black?""Yes, Dr Fernandez. What is the situation now? How is she? How is Grace? Can I see her?"Enrique had been waiting the entire night with Penny and Sophia. The rest of their family had gone back home to return the following morning.It was about 2am when Dr Fernandez came out of the operating room. "I am truly sorry to be the one to tell you this," Dr Fernandez began with sad eyes."What is it, doctor? Please, talk to me," Enrique pleaded, dreading a bad news."What is wrong with my sister, can we see her now?""She is out of danger right now. She suffered a serious head injury, but we have operated and stitched her up. She is unconscious fir now due to a concussion. She would probably regain consciousness later today or tomorrow perhaps. There was no brain damage. She suffered several fractures and there are some cuts and injuries which we have treated. It is unfortunate, though that we couldn't save the baby. With the bruise on her belly, we suspect that she hit her belly

GRACE"Have you heard the latest gist, four eyes? I'm sure you haven't. After all, you're the least important person around here," Giselle, an executive secretary mocked in her usual overly high pitched voice.Giselle as usual was dressed in a smart business suit which clung to her abundant curves. She was just the perfect example of a blonde bombshell. Unfortunately, Giselle's intellect as compared to her huge breasts was as little as a mustard seed.Grace being a mere receptionist on the ground floor was used to such belittling comments from employees in higher positions. She forced herself not to roll her eyes with a sigh. Pushing up her glasses, she asked, "what is the latest gist?""I knew you couldn't have heard about it yet. The thing is that, we have rumours going around about Mr Howard selling Howard Tech to some wealthy business tycoon," Giselle attempted to whisper, but was still audible enough to draw the attention of a cleaner who was passing by."Really?" Grace asked in

"Come in, please," came Mr Bright's cheerful voice. Grace often wondered why he was always in a good mood.She walked in and took a seat in front of his desk. Mr Bright had always made her feel comfortable, so she had no worries of doing anything wrong when around him."How are you dear?" He smiled, revealing his perfect white teeth.Mr Dwayne Bright was a handsome blonde man of thirty-three. Grace was often curious about his over friendliness with her.After all she wasn't worthy to be compared with the beautiful ladies like Giselle in the company, so why was he always taking out time to discuss and smile at her?When she had first started working at Howard Tech, she had been totally infatuated with Mr Bright, mistaking his friendly nature for a special liking to her.When she realized that he treated everyone else in the same kind and gentle manner, she forced herself to let go of any foolish feelings for him.Right now, when he smiled up at her like that, it was a struggle to shut t

After lunch with Mr Bright, Grace had a rather uneventful rest of the day. She finally clocked out of the office and headed for her tiny flat which she shared with her younger sister, Penny.It was time to get ready for work again. She found it ironic how her entire life was always spent working. Grace had never been one to complain, but recently Camila had been getting on her nerves. Getting dressed for work at night was something she used to look forward to, but for the past two months, she had dreaded every single part of it."Hey, Grace! Why the hell did you get back late? Don't you know you are on duty tonight?" Camila, her cousin yelled, as soon as she got into the flat."I'm sorry," Grace muttered."I don't need your stupid apologies. Get rid of that ugly look and go make me some money. Dress casually, and head to the office, Albert will tell you about your client for tonight," Camila said, puffing out smoke from her cigarette.Grace made sure not to reveal how annoyed at her s

"I just need you to get one thing straight. You can only touch me when I want you to, do not try that rubbish again," Enrique snapped.The man was so annoying, what did she expect, though. He had already showed himself off as a rude jerk at the office, why did she expect him to be different now?"I also would like you to understand that I'm not a cheap slut or some object that you can control. I am here for strictly business, you don't have to sound so harsh with me. I have had better clients than you," Grace found herself saying without even thinking of it."I'm sorry about my tone, I just don't like unwanted touches," Enrique apologized. He rarely apologized, but something about what Lila just said had him rendering an apology.She was absolutely stunning, so feminine and gorgeous. Her large ice grey orbs were so captivating when he looked at them, he felt like he was drowning.Enrique had met several beautiful ladies, probably some even more beautiful than Lila, but something about

Grace stood at Enrique's side. He had his hands around her waist and she placed her hand on his chest while they stood on the red carpet, smiling for the flashing cameras."Are you so famous?" Grace asked him as they made their way upstairs and into the venue."Definitely not famous enough, you don't know me after all," Enrique replied.Their coats were collected and Grace smiled in satisfaction when she saw Enrique's eyes roam the exposed skin of her back."You are very beautiful," he said clearing his throat."Thank you for your compliment," she smiled.Some couples stopped to greet them as they walked into the ballroom. They all looked very much interested in knowing whom exactly Enrique's date was."Be serious, should I be searching you name on the internet?" She asked even though she had zero access to the internet."There's no need for that, I'll tell you about myself. I am kind of a celebrity chef," he said, smiling."What? For real? Why didn't you tell me? So you cook fancy fo

"Hello, I'm Margot Prescott. Why do I even have to introduce myself. You must have seen me on TV, social media and even on magazines, correct?"Grace laughed in her mind, if only this lady knew that she was only seeing her face for the first time."I don't know if I can recall, but it's nice to meet you anyways. Enrique, darling I'd like to meet your father now, Sophia was just telling me amazing things about him," Grace said ignoring Margot.Enrique caught her strategy and said, "yes, my love. I'll take you to him now."Sophia winked at Grace as she and Enrique walked away from a furious Margot.Having always been the centre of attention, Margot couldn't believe she was just ignored and humiliated like that.Who could the brunette be? Could Enrique have moved on from her for real? Margot knew she just had to find out about who Lila was."I guess your ex is still fuming at what just happened," Grace said."How did you know she is my ex?""Sophia told me. Why did you both break up? She

"Would you like to say something to the employees, Mr Black?" Mr Howard asked with a huge smile on his wrinkled face.The old man had been running as CEO of Howard Tech, one of the fast growing smartphones and software developing companies. With no heirs to take over his company and a terrible gambling habit, Mr Howard was in a fix since the previous year and was finding it difficult to continue handling the company.He had approached a number of successful businessmen, but none had been willing to buy it for the right price and maintain the conditions Mr Howard had put in place.Enrique had been approached and at first, he had been hesitant to take on a struggling company, but after consulting renowned analysts, who had solutions to about seventy percent of the issues Howard Tech was facing, he made his proposal to buy the company."I really don't have too much to say, but I know that I would like to change a number of workers here. Many of them are terribly inefficient," Enrique fron

"My question for you is why a used condom is in our trashcan? Don't even try to lie your way out of it. This is concrete evidence of the fact that you brought in a man while I was away. Tell me how many times was it?" Enrique roared in anger."Why are you raising your voice at me? How is it my concern if you forgot to trash the condom?" Grace frowned."Of course I will raise my voice! You have no idea how disgusted I feel. Someone else has had you in our matrimonial home, how do you expect me to react to that?""Wait a minute, let me get you. You are accusing me of having sex with someone else? I haven't even been around for a while," Grace frowned."It's an old one, which shows that you and your partner made use of it while I was away at the office! We didn't use any protection the last time we had sex here, so it obviously isn't mine.""I don't have any partner, what nonsense are you accusing me of? Is this how lowly you think of me. That I would let someone else asides you to touch

Grace had to interrupt Enrique's advances as soon as they entered the hotel room for her best friend's wedding party. She questioned, "Enrique, what exactly are we doing here?" as her eyes surveyed the venue.Enrique pulled her closer and replied with an air of mystery, "We're here to fulfill a need, can't you tell?" before planting a kiss on her neck.Grace pushed him away and asked, perplexed, "What did you just say? This is my best friend's wedding party. I can't believe you would suggest we have sex during the reception. Plus, we're supposed to be the maid of honor and best man for the wedding!"Despite looking dapper in a white tuxedo, Enrique's behavior sent chills down Grace's spine. His eyes bore an unfamiliar look, and she couldn't help but feel like something was off.He persisted, "I don't see why we can't have some fun when we're both feeling it. Don't you feel the same way? It's frustrating."Enrique compelled Grace to touch his erect member, but she recoiled and questione

Janet and Miguel's wedding ceremony finally took place after two days of meticulous planning. Miguel's best man was Enrique and Grace was honored to have been chosen as the chief bridesmaid. She had been residing in a sumptuous suite with Penny and Sophia since the night of Janet's bachelorette party.Grace had been perplexed to learn that not only had Enrique been acting strange on the phone whenever she rang him, but he had also been avoiding her entirely by not taking her calls or visiting her at all, making excuses about work whenever she questioned him. The previous day she had driven from the hotel where she was staying all the way to their mansion, only to be informed by the housekeeper that Enrique had been sleeping outside since the night she left for the bachelorette party. She had attempted to contact him numerous times to ascertain his reasons for staying away, but her calls remained unanswered.Enrique's family was also present for the wedding, but at the reception party

Grace inquired, "Where are we headed?"After a morning without feeling any morning sickness, Grace woke up with an unusual sense of happiness. She even prepared breakfast, without any feelings of nausea.Enrique couldn't help but gaze at the sight of Grace's gorgeous face. She ate her breakfast with a sense of ease, feeling relaxed and content.Not wanting to be intrusive, Enrique refrained from checking Grace's phone for any traces of past messages from the unknown sender. Could it be that she was unaware or had not received any messages from them before?"Ricky, you seem to be lost in thought. What are you thinking about?" Grace asked."Nothing, my love. First, we plan on catching a movie, followed by a picnic, and then I'll take you somewhere nice," Enrique answered."Where?" Grace asked eagerly."You'll find out soon enough. Go get dressed, so we're not late for the movie. Sophia and Janet will come in the evening to snatch you away from me," Enrique joked."Alright, honey. I'll s

"So tell me, what is it between you and Margot Prescott? Don't even tell me that it's nothing, because I know what I've been seeing on the internet. I might be dyslexic, which prevents me from reading properly, but that doesn't mean that I can't see the photos of you two," Grace said."So you do care?" Enrique smiled."What do you mean by that? Of course I care and that's why I'm asking. Are you trying to avoid the question or what?""Margot is doing business with me," Enrique replied vaguely."Business? What kind of business could she possibly be doing with you, Enrique? Last I checked, Margot was still very much a supermodel. So tell me what a supermodel has to do with a famous restauranteur and businessman like you, my dear?" Grace asked with her hands akimbo."I find this amazing, Grace. You didn't even ask me this question on my return. Why now all of a sudden when the answer doesn't even matter?""Of course it matters. I want to know why my own husband was traveling all around E

"So what is it? Why won't you tell our close friends about our good news?" Enrique replied when they were seated on a couch in their house. Enrique had decided to stay at home with Grace for the entire day and hence delegated his duties to his executive assistant."I just don't want the news to be out there yet. Camila wouldn't be happy to hear that I'm pregnant, neither will your aunts. I just can't help, but feel reluctant to share such news with them," Grace replied."I never said we would tell them about it. Surely, you will tell Penny and Sophia about the baby at least?""No, not even them. I just want to take it all in first. I'm not even sure I want all of this right now. I don't want to tell anyone until I'm sure," Grace said, honestly. "What do you mean by that? Are you considering a termination of the pregnancy? Why? I don't have a problem with us getting so lucky at once," Enrique said."Enrique, please understand me. I have never been pregnant before, not even while slee

"I don't know why I'm feeling so nervous all of a sudden," Grace sighed. She was dressed in a purple business suit with her ginger red hair let down in waves across her shoulders.Her makeup was flawless, making her look regal and untouchable. Enrique had helped with her makeup and dressing because he had been afraid to let her be alone for a second."You have no idea how nervous I am too, but then we have to get you treated. You can't keep feeling this way. I don't like it," Enrique said, arranging her hair to cover the red patch on her neck.Grace suddenly remembered what happened earlier that morning between them and she blushed when she realized that Enrique was also thinking of it."I'm sorry that I got so wild with you like that, you weren't even feeling too good and I did that," Enrique said."Why are you sorry? I wanted every bit of it too."Grace hugged him and then Enrique kissed her forehead before leaving the car.He opened the door for Grace, holding her by the waist. The

Grace rushed out of the bed, bolting straight to the bathroom. She bent over the wash basin and spilled out the contents in her stomach.She felt so sick to her stomach and the gagging continued until she curled up like a ball on the white tiles."Baby, what is wrong with you?"Grace was about to reply, but instead felt another bout of nausea hit her as she threw up once again. Enrique held back her hair the whole time and Grace felt terrible that he was seeing her in such a state."Take it easy, I'm here. You will be fine," Enrique said, patting her back, softly.Grace attempted to get up, but her legs felt so heavy and weak, she only squatted once again.Enrique washed her face with warm water Enrique lifted her up in his arms and placed her on the bed."How long has this been going on?""I don't know, about two or three weeks back," Grace replied weakly. Her head felt like it was spinning around and she just wanted to feel fine.The constant nausea was something she couldn't underst
