CHAPTER 109Nolan led Alexa through the darkened mansion towards the poolside. The only sound came from their feet hitting the tiles."Are you sure this is a good idea, Nolan?" Alexa asked hesitantly."I'm sure," he replied with a grin. "Trust me."As they approached the pool, Nolan pulled out a bottle of whiskey and two glasses from his jacket pocket."Here, have a drink," he offered, pouring the amber liquid into each glass.Alexa took the glass, feeling the coolness of the glass against her hand. She brought the glass to her lips and took a sip. The warmth of the whiskey seeped through her throat, spreading throughout her body.Nolan sat down on the edge of the pool and motioned for her to join him. Alexa sat down next to him, feeling the coolness of the tiles against her skin."I'm sorry about earlier," Nolan said, his voice low. "I shouldn't have pushed you like that.""It's fine," Alexa replied, taking another sip of whiskey. "I just don't know what to say."Nolan chuckled. "You

CH110As the morning sun shone through her window, Alexa woke up with a smile on her face, ready to face the day ahead. She remembered Anthony's invitation to his company and the thought of it made her feel excited yet nervous. She quickly got up from bed, washed her face, and got dressed in a sleek, black dress.As she was applying her makeup, there was a knock on her door. She was surprised to see Anthony standing there, looking dashing in his suit."Good morning, Alexa," he greeted her with a smile."Good morning, Anthony," she replied, feeling her cheeks flush with excitement."I hope I'm not disturbing you. I just wanted to invite you officially to my company. I would like to introduce you to the board of directors," he said.Alexa was surprised but also flattered that Anthony would introduce her as his woman to his board of directors."Wow, that's a big deal. But isn't that too soon?" Alexa asked, feeling a bit hesitant.Anthony understood her concern and quickly replied, "You'r

CH 111As they entered the restaurant, Anthony scanned the room for an empty table. He spotted one at the far end and gestured for Alexa to follow him. As they made their way to the table, Alexa's heart skipped a beat as she spotted Cody walking towards them. She tried to hide behind Anthony, but it was too late. Cody had already seen her.Cody gave Alexa a menacing look that made her skin crawl. She could feel her anxiety building up and hoped that Anthony wouldn't notice. But just as she thought she was in the clear, Anthony turned around and saw Cody."Hey, Cody," Anthony said, extending his hand for a handshake.Cody hesitated for a moment before reluctantly shaking Anthony's hand. Alexa couldn't believe what she was seeing. Cody was supposed to be her secret, but now Anthony knew about him."Alexa, is everything okay?" Anthony asked, noticing the worried look on her face.Alexa hesitated for a moment before answering. "Yes, everything is fine," she lied.Anthony didn't seem convi

CH 112As Alexa saw Cody walk out of the restaurant, she couldn't shake off the feeling of unease that had taken over her. She turned to Anthony and said, "Can we go somewhere else? It's too crowded in here."Anthony looked at her, noticing the unease in her eyes. "Sure, I know a private place we can go to. Follow me," he said.They got up from the table and walked out of the restaurant. Anthony led her to a nearby park that had a small pond and plenty of trees surrounding it. They found a bench and sat down, taking in the peaceful scenery."Is this better?" Anthony asked.Alexa breathed a sigh of relief. "Yes, thank you. I'm sorry, I just got a little uncomfortable in there."Anthony reached out and placed a hand on her shoulder. "It's okay, I understand. You don't have to explain anything to me if you don't want to."Alexa felt a rush of gratitude towards Anthony. He was so kind and understanding, unlike anyone she had ever met before.As they sat there, Anthony began to open up to

They clung to one another, feeling a connection that ran deeper than anything either of them had ever experienced before.Their lovemaking was slow and tender, yet filled with an intensity that neither of them could deny.

CH 114Anthony couldn't contain his excitement as Alexa broke the news of her pregnancy. He felt like he had won the lottery. He held her in his arms and spun her around, planting kisses all over her face. Alexa smiled and laughed, happy to see him so joyful. But in the back of her mind, she knew that she had just told a lie.Anthony's mind was racing with thoughts of how he would be a father, how he would raise his child, and how he would provide for his growing family. He felt like he was on top of the world. He was so happy that he didn't want to ruin the moment by telling Nolan about the pregnancy. He knew that Nolan would have questions and concerns, and Anthony didn't want to deal with that just yet.As they sat on the couch together, Anthony couldn't help but keep his hands on Alexa's belly, imagining what their child would look like.

115Alexa sat at her desk, pen in hand, staring blankly at the paper in front of her. She knew what she wanted to say, but the words just wouldn't come out right. Finally, after a long moment of silence, she began to write."Dear Anthony,I don't even know where to begin. I feel like such a fool for getting involved in all of this. I should have known better, I should have seen it coming. But I was blind, and now it's too late. I'm sorry, Anthony. I'm sorry for everything.I know you must hate me now, and I understand why. I lied to you about the pregnancy, and I'm sorry. I only did it to buy us some time to get out of that situation. I never meant to hurt you, but I know you must hate me now, and I understand why. I lied to you about the pregnancy, and I'm sorry. I only did it to buy us some time to get out of that situation.

They had already packed their bags with all the essentials they would need for their journey. The adrenaline rush was keeping them both on edge, but they knew they had to be careful and stay focused.Nolan looked at Alexa, and with a hint of concern in his voice, he asked her once again, "Are you sure about this, Alexa? We can still turn back now if you want."Alexa took a deep breath, trying to suppress the doubt that was lingering in her mind, and replied with a nod, "Yes, I'm sure. I have never been sure about anything in my life before, but I know that this is what I want."Nolan gave her a comforting smile and held her hand, "Then let's go. We have a long journey ahead of us."As they started packing their bags, Alexa couldn't help but wonder if she truly loved Nolan or if she was just going with him because he
