Ivery's POV.

I watched as he stood up from the table, still on the phone. He was visibly tense, his brow furrowed and his lips pursed.

He paced back and forth, his voice low and urgent. I couldn't hear what he was saying, but I could tell it was something serious.

My mind raced with questions and concerns. I wanted to ask him what was wrong, but I was afraid to interrupt. I felt powerless, unable to do anything but watch and wait.

My kids had stopped eating, their eyes wide with concern.

“What's wrong?” I asked them.

“What's going on with Uncle Franco?”

They looked at me with confusion and worry. I could tell they were concerned, but I would rather not alarm them.

So I lied, “It's nothing, he's just on a business call.” I forced a smile, hoping they would believe me. But I could tell they were still uneasy.

    Ivery's POV.“So you brought your estranged wife?” Diva's mother said, her voice dripping with hatred. I could hear the distaste in her tone, and I knew it was directed at me.“I would love it if you had said you brought a friend rather than estranged,” he said, his voice firm. “She's a friend.” Her mother scoffed. “You expect me to believe that?” she said, her voice dripping with skepticism. I sighed, knowing that this would be a very long night.“Well, she's just a friend,” Franco said, trying to keep his voice calm. “You can believe whatever you want, but it's the truth.” “The last time we believed you, it was a mess,” she said, her voice mocking. I winced at her words, knowing she was referring to my contract marriage. “It was a contract marriage, so partially I didn't lie,” he said, trying to defend himself. “You knew what you were getting into.” “You lied by omission,” she said, her voice cold. “You told me you were married for five years.

    Ivery's POV.I kept running, my heart pounding in my chest. I couldn't stay here, not with all these emotions swirling around me. I needed to get away, to find some space to breathe. I didn't stop running until I was completely exhausted, my legs burning with exhaustion. As I tried to catch my breath, I stumbled and felt a hand on my arm. I looked up, and saw that it was Franco.“Why are you running away from me?” he asked, his voice full of worry.I tried to pull away from him, but he held on tight.“I need some space,” I said, my voice shaking. “Why, did someone say something to you,” he asked, his face etched with concern.“No one did,” I lied. I was tired of staying here or causing more troubles, as they assumed I just wanted to go.“Someone must have said something to you,” he said, his voice laced with concern. “I know Mrs. Diva doesn't like you.I shook my head, feeling overwhelmed. “It's not just her,” I said, my voice trembling. “I feel like everyone is against me, like I

    Franco's POV.I watched as her face grew from pleasure to worry, and I wondered what she was worried about, so many thoughts swirled through my mind as I began. Maybe she does like the sex? Did I annoy her? Should I ask her? But then her expression changed into a devilish one, she had a devilish smirk on her face.She leaned and guided my hands to her lips, her tongue lapped on my cums, tasting the bitter yet sweet, thick liquid, I watched as she swallows it all.“Fuck,” I mumbled as I pinned her back to the car roughly, causing the alarm to sound.We both laughed at the alarm, and I felt my heart melt as I saw her smile. It was like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders, and I felt a sense of relief. “How was it?” I asked, my heart beating a little faster. “It was so much fun!” she said, a wide smile on her face. “Have you ever done this before?” I asked, curious to hear her answer. I wasn't certain if I was ready for the truth, but I needed to know. She looked at me, her ey

He didn't tell us where he was going.” I was disappointed, but I tried not to show it. “Thank you,” I said, giving her a small smile. “You're welcome, Miss,” she replied, a polite smile on her face as she walked away. But then I stopped her, calling her back. “How long has Franco been gone?” I asked. “He's been gone since yesterday,” she replied. “He said he had some errands to run, and that he would be back soon.” But it was clear that he hadn't come back yet. My heart started to race, a feeling of unease settling in my stomach. Something wasn't right.I hurried upstairs to his room, pacing back and forth. I tried to call him, but he wouldn't pick up. I left several voicemails, my voice increasingly urgent. It was like he was deliberately ignoring me. I started to feel a sense of panic. What if something had happened to him? I couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. I w

    Franco’s POV.Two weeks later.As Diva's health improved, she began showing up at my house with greater frequency, and it was beginning to wear on my patience. I could hear the bell ring and my heart would sink when I would see her at the door. She would barge in without even waiting for an invitation, and I would feel a wave of irritation wash over me. It was as if she had decided that my home was now hers as well, and it was grating on my nerves. I would grit my teeth and try to be polite, but it was getting harder and harder to maintain my composure.As I sat wondering what to do, I could not refute the fact that I was terrified to go home, so I settled on going to the park and spending more time.As I sat on the park bench, I looked up and saw someone I hadn't expected to see.

    Ivery’s POV.I finished helping the kids with their assignments, and just as I was about to relax, I realized that I couldn't find my phone. “Where could it be?” I wondered aloud. I started searching for it, retracing my steps from the last time I remembered having it. I checked the kitchen, the living room, and even the bathroom, but no luck. In a last-ditch effort, I decided to check the kids' room. And there it was – my phone! I picked it up, relieved to have found it. But as I looked at the screen, I saw a message from Franco, which was odd because we had spoken not too long ago. I opened the message, my heart pounding in my chest. “Can you come over now,” the message read? I couldn't help but smile when I saw the message. Maybe Franco just needed some advice, or wanted to chat about something. I called him, but the call went straight to voicemail. I left a message, figuring that he must be in the shower or something. The image of his naked body was vivid in my body, I imagin

I had come to see mom, only for us to end up having heated arguments. My head was spinning, and I just wanted to be alone. I ignored the greetings of my maid as I slowly walked to my room, my heart still pounding in my chest. I closed the door behind me and sank onto the bed, feeling overwhelmed and exhausted.I had decided to visit my mom earlier today and discussed my plans with her about my new plans. I was surprised by her reaction. “Be patient,” she said. “Everything will work out.” But I wasn't so sure. I was about to marry Franco, and this was not the way I had imagined things would go.

I was overcome with relief, and I took a deep breath to steady myself.“Why do you want to go now?” I said, my anger getting the better of me. “I thought you came here to seduce my boyfriend, so why are you leaving without accomplishing your mission?” Ivery’s eyes widened, and she took a step back. “That's not true!” she protested, her voice quivering. “What's not true?” I asked. “I'm not trying to seduce your boyfriend!” she insisted. "I'm just a friend! Please, you have to stop with all this nonsense.”“Then why are you here so late?” I countered, my anger building. I turned to Franco, who looked at me with a pained expression. “Please, Diva,” he said, his voice calm and steady. “Just stop. There's not

I headed to the bathroom, closing the door behind me. The sound of the running water was soothing, and I took a moment to relax, enjoying the sensation of the warm water on my skin.I looked down at the ring on my finger, still in a bit of disbelief.

I finished my shower, feeling refreshed and ready for the night.I stepped out of the bathroom, my hair still damp and tousled. I sat down at the dressing table, staring at my reflection in the mirror. I put on a silky black nightgown that clung to my curves.

I stood there, my heart racing, as the sound of the bells filled the air. It was a sound I would never forget, and it marked the beginning of a new life for me and my family. I stared at myself in the mirror, taking in the sight of the white wedding gown I was wearing. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen, and I felt like I was in a dream. My hair was perfectly styled, and my makeup was flawless. I took a deep breath, trying to take it all in. Was this really happening? Was I really getting married? I looked at the door, waiting for the moment I would walk down the aisle.My mother, Cassy, and Owen, entered the room. "You look beautiful, my dear," my mother said, smiling at me.

But I didn't know if I could face him right now, with everything I had just discovered.The silence was broken by a question from Franco. "How long did you plan on keeping this from me?" he asked, his voice low and calm. I didn't know what to say, so I remained silent. I looked at everything in the room but him

I fumbled with the screen, unlocking it and opening the video gallery. There it was, the video of Diva in his penthouse trying to force him to sign the check. I held out the phone, my heart pounding in my chest.“Take a look,” I said, my voice trembling. He took the phone from me, a look of confusion on his face. He held it up to his eyes, staring at the screen. At first, he didn't seem to understand what he was looking at. Then, his eyes widened, his jaw dropping slightly. He looked up at me, his face pale. “What is this?” he asked, his voice barely a whisper. I took a deep breath, preparing to tell him everything. As I told him everything, I watched as his face twitched with anger. His brow furrowed, his jaw clenched. “How dare she try to do this,” he said, his voice filled with rage? “I need to deal with her.” His ha

He had been spending more time with the kids, and sporadically they even slept over. Was I reading too much into it, or was there something more going on? I couldn't help but wonder if there was something I was missing, some hidden meaning that I just couldn't see.At first, I was afraid to let them sleep over.

I nodded, my mind whirling with thoughts and questions. “When do you think the transplant was?” I asked, trying to put the pieces together.

I felt a sense of panic rising in my chest. “What's this?” I asked the doctor. “Your bone marrow matches with his,” he said, his voice calm and reassuring. But his words did nothing to ease my anxiety. I felt overwhelmed and confused.“How’s this possible?” I asked confused.“ Because you are the father of the child,” he said.I let out a sarcastic laugh. “How can I be the father of the child?” I asked incredulously. “Does this doctor understand how biology works?” My voice was tinged with anger and disbelief. It was impossible, I was sure of it. But the doctor looked at me calmly, and said, “I understand your skepticism, but there is no doubt that you are the father of this child. Your DNA matches perfectly.” I felt my world spinning, my mind reeling. How could this be?“Ivery told me that she wasn't the mother of the kids,” I said, my

When we arrived, the nurses rushed out to meet us, taking Caden from our arms and whisking him away to the emergency room. We were left standing there, the silence deafening.
