BELLA’s POV

While I was eagerly waiting to hear Noah’s secret, the door swung open suddenly and Aaron suddenly came out from nowhere.

He stood there, his expression grave, and I could see a hint of annoyance in his eyes.

"What's going on here?" Aaron demanded, his gaze shifting between Noah and me.”You two having a little meeting at midnight?”

“We were just talking bro,” Noah explained.

“What are you doing here? You know your leg is hurting,” I asked, taking a glance at him.

Aaron cleared his throat, his tone a little stern. "I was just in the mood for some orange juice."

He continued to stare at us, his lips pressed into a tight line.

"You could have called one of the maids for that," I said tersely.

“I wanted to get it myself,” he replied me.

I sighed heavily and grabbed some orange juice from the freezer then poured it into a glass cup. The silence in the kitchen was so much that you could hear a pin drop on the tiled floor.

Aaron took a gulp of his drink and downed it in a

    BELLA’s POVI raised an eyebrow, curious. "Where are Mom and Dad?”.He explained,looking thoughtful."They had some important business that took them out of town early this morning. They'll be gone for a few days."I nodded in understanding, realizing that this meant Noah would be handling everything in their absence. "Well, I'm sure you'll do a great job, Noah.”He chuckled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "I'm going to try my best."After breakfast, I retreated to the garden, seeking some solitude to gather my thoughts. I knew it was time to confide in someone about my feelings for Aaron. I dialed my best friend, MaryJane, and waited anxiously for her to pick up."Hey, Bella!" MaryJane's cheerful voice came through the line. "How's everything at the Davis mansion?"I took a deep breath, trying to steady my nerves. "It's... it's been quite eventful. Listen, MaryJane, I need to talk to you about something."MaryJane immediately picked up on my seriousness. "Of course, Bella. What's o

    BELLA’s POV “What the hell are you doing?” I had to ask since I was unsure.“Taking you out of here,that’s what.” He responded as he leaned in,trying to carry me,his grip firm on my waist. I pushed his hand away with the little strength that I had.“You aren’t taking me anywhere! I am not even drunk yet.Just let me be,” I frowned at him.He sighed deeply and adjusted back into his seat watching me closely.“What is it?” I asked,my fingers circling over my glass.“Am I not allowed to watch you anymore? That is what I’m here for. I need to ensure you don’t get drunk and act stupid.”“Your brother is stupid for not respecting our marriage and going after that snake,Jasmine.”“I warned you didn’t I? A leopard doesn’t change its spots,Bella.I knew the kind of brother I had but I wondered what you saw him. And I didn’t want to come off as being jealous although I deeply care for you. You know this.”I listened to Noah speaking and soon enough I couldn’t really make out some of the words. M

    BELLA’s POVMy mind raced, my thoughts a chaotic jumble of disbelief and anger. "Noah, how could you let this happen? You knew I was in love with Aaron!"He looked at me,his expression turning serious. "I couldn't stand seeing you with him anymore, Bella. It broke me every time I saw you together. I've loved you since the first day you stepped foot into this house."I was overwhelmed by a mix of emotions, unable to process the revelation he had just made. I had never imagined that Noah felt this way about me. I always felt he just cared for me like a sister-in-law although there were other times I had thought there was something more to it.Tears welled up in my eyes as I tried to make sense of everything. "Noah, this is a mess. You need to leave.How did we even have sex! You should have known I was drunk! You took advantage of me,didn’t you?”His face fell, and he looked hurt, but there was a glimmer of defiance in his eyes. "Bella, I won't apologize for my feelings. I thought you wa

    BELLA’s POVI had just finished helping a customer pick out a perfect gold necklace when I spotted Noah entering my jewelry shop. I was a little bit nervous as I excused myself and walked over to him."Hey," I whispered as I led him to a quieter corner of the shop, away from the prying ears of my assistant. "What are you doing here?"Noah's expression was serious, his eyes locked on mine. "Bella, I've been doing some calculations, and... I suspect I might be the father of the baby."I couldn't believe he was bringing this up here, in the middle of my shop. Panic welled up inside me, and I quickly hushed him, my voice barely above a whisper. "Noah, you can't say things like that. You don't know anything for sure."His eyes bore into mine, searching for answers. "Bella, if there's a chance, I need to be responsible. We both do."My heart raced as I struggled to maintain my composure. I knew he was right, that there was a responsibility here. But I couldn't let him complicate things furt

    AARON’s POV.Leaning against the door frame, my eyes were fixed on Bella as she stood there on the balcony, engaged in a conversation with MaryJane.Earphones plugged in, I observed her discreetly, my hands dug into my pockets and legs casually crossed. The soft movement of her lips as she spoke to MaryJane entranced me, and I couldn't help but admire her from a distance. Bella looked exceptionally pretty today,just as always. Also,she seemed to be having that pregnancy glow already. Knowing that she was carrying my baby inside of her made my heart warmer.However, as my gaze lingered on her, I noticed a flicker of concern in her eyes, a hint of worry that didn't belong there. It tugged at my heart, and my curiosity was piqued. What could be troubling her?Before I could contemplate further, Bella's gaze met mine, and her expression shifted from surprise to a subtle panic. She clearly hadn't expected me to be standing here, listening to their conversation. I slowly edged closer to wh

    BELLA’s POVI woke up in a hospital room, disoriented and groggy. It took a moment for my surroundings to come into focus, and as I blinked my eyes, I saw Aaron sitting in a chair beside my bed. His face was etched with worry, but when he noticed I was awake, a relieved smile spread across his lips."Bella," he whispered, gently holding my hand, "you're awake. Thank goodness.You know,I was so fucking scared.”My heart raced as I struggled to recall what had happened. The last thing I remembered was a jolt of pain and the sensation of falling. My eyes darted around the room as panic threatened to engulf me. "What happened? Is the baby okay?" I suddenly clutched at my stomach.Aaron squeezed my hand reassuringly. "You're going to be alright, Bella. The baby is safe and you are safe too. The doctor said so.”Relief washed over me in waves. "What happened? How did I end up here?"His expression grew solemn as he explained, "You fell, but someone managed to catch you before you landed too r

She could have said whatever it is she wanted to through the phone.When she asked me if I loved Bella,I hesitated. I didn’t want to hurt her feelings by telling her I didn’t quite love her the way I used to and that I had feelings for Bella now and they grew stronger everyday. But I couldn’t bring myself to saying the truth because I didn’t want to complicate the contract Bella and I signed and believed whatever it was that I was feeling would soon pass away. I believed things were going to get easier when she delivered our baby and we went our separate ways. Besides,I wasn’t even sure if Bella had any feelings for me whatsoever and deep down I hated to think she may have feelings for Noah instead. I had caught them a lot of times not to think otherwise.I was trying to reassure Jasmine that she was the one I loved when a small vase on the table behind us suddenl

"Leave right now and refund every single penny I've spent on you and I am not even fucking joking. I mean every word.”The weight of his words crushed me, and I felt my grip on my luggage weaken. I had known this wouldn't be easy, but hearing it so plainly from him made my heart ache. The tears welled up in my eyes, but I blinked them back. I couldn't let him see how much he hurt me.I was stupid for loving this stupid man that didn’t even give a hoot about me.I watched as he turned and walked out of the room, leaving me standing there, feeling utterly lost. It was a harsh reminder of our reality, and I couldn't deny the truth any longer. I was bound to him, and there was no easy way out. As I exhaled a shaky breath, I couldn't hel

We received a call about a break-in, but it seems to be under control now."I turned my attention to Richard, who appeared relieved to see me.

    BELLA’s POVAs my eyes fluttered open, I realized I was still inside my rental car, and it was parked precariously at an awkward angle on the side of the road. My head throbbed with pain, probably from hitting the steering wheel during the accident. For a moment, the world around me was a blurry haze.The baby's cries filled the car, his cries of distress mingling with my own confusion and pain.I forced myself to focus and looked around, realizing that the accident had disoriented me. Gradually, my vision cleared, and I saw a man approaching, his expression tense and furious. I reached for my baby and tried to calm him down,caressing his forehead gently in the backseat. I knew I had to act quickly, so I unbuckled my seatbelt and stepped out of the car, my legs shaky from the impact.The man who emerged from the car I had collided with was tall, with a rugged appearance that seemed to demand respect. He had a strong build, and his dark hair was disheveled, as if he had been having a

    BELLA’s POVI sat in the dimly lit room, staring at the screen of my laptop. I was grateful we were comfortable and safe in Los Angeles now. That was the first place I thought of moving to and I hoped Aaron wasn’t going to find us. While we were on the road coming here and our car was stopped,I had thought Aaron had somehow sent his men and caught up with us but it was just some mere thugs who wanted to steal from us. We were lucky enough to get away from them as the police was nearby at that moment. The apartment we rented wasn’t anything fancy but at least it was a roof over our head and quite comfortable for all four of us for now. At least it was better than staying in that huge mansion where I was unhappy.Here in L.A,not too many people were going to recognize me here as Aaron Davis’s wife. Besides, I was planning to keep a low profile knowing how nosy people could get.I found myself glued to the screen of my laptop when I came across a very interesting video. I froze,watchin
