Victoria POV
My palms are sweating, no, actually I'm sweating all over. Standing at the front of that room, next to Aneliss, looking sideways at all those serious investors who look so scary. I don't think I've ever been in such a scary situation in my life, and I hope I won't be in a situation like this again.
"Good morning, sorry for the delay, but my brother is going through a delicate personal situation right now, so he will be joining us very soon" Greets Aneliss, who is at the front of the table with all the investors around.
Snorting with annoyance, one of the investors says, "And what is your brother's boy doing? Does he like to keep us waiting? Without him, the meeting makes no sense at all!"
After that man spoke, the other investors start talking among themselves in annoyance, not at all happy to see that Aneliss is taking her brother's place in the meeting. But she manages to remain calm, and clearing her throat says, "Gentlemen, please, this i
Dominik POVThis can't be happening, it really can't be happening. Desperately, I try calling the elevator over and over again, pressing the button that calls the elevators to this floor, but to no avail. What the fuck is going on? Unable to believe that all of this has actually been planned by my ridiculous mother, I am left pacing back and forth in my office and in the hallways outside my office as time continues to pass.This can't be happening, I refuse to think that this damn stupidity is real, because right now... Right now I... I should be with Victoria, damn it, I have to get out of here to go to Victoria!However, it is already too late, as by the time-stamped by the wall clocks in my office, which fortunately has not been affected by the loss of power throughout this floor, I realize that many more minutes have passed than I would expect, and that probably at this very hour, the meeting would have already started, with me or without me, as investors di
Dominik POVSmiling, I watch as Victoria lies down on my bed, looking very happy and content, still smiling as I do."Have I told you yet how proud I am of you for what you just accomplished?" I ask her."Not as many times as you should..." Victoria replies to me, biting one lip appealingly.Laughing a little, I climb on top of her on the bed, as I reach for her lips for a short kiss, replying, "Then I'm going to tell you more... I'm very proud of you, my beautiful wife."Aneliss had already told me the ins and outs of the meeting they had this afternoon, which I was unable to be at because of my mother's nonsense. They had both played an incredible role in the meeting, something that surprises me a lot about my sister since she is not very good at these things, but which in the end ended up with most of the investors in attendance accepting our proposal and ending up signing a document that allowed us to split the company, such an important proces
Victoria POVWith a sigh, I finish putting on my gym clothes, a baggy white t-shirt, and green shorts, both with the school logo painted on the fabric. Fortunately, with this class, third-semester midterms will be over, and with it much of my stress.Every time I think about it, I can't help but be amazed, thinking about how fast the days have gone by, and how I am about to enter my last semester of school before graduation. I can't deny that my life is pretty good now, living with Dominik means living with no pressure about money or my parents' problems, just fixating on relaxing and spending quality time by his side after classes. This is good because, for the first time in my whole life, I only had to focus on school exams, without thinking about my family's problems or bad things about my marriage, these exams were just studying, and that made me incredibly happy, I felt like a normal person for the first time in a long time.After that, other things went on
Victoria POVI always knew that people were cruel, all my life I have been treated like crap by countless people, just because I didn't have the same money as them, or because I was always a bit more shy than others, even now that I have money that hasn't changed, it has even gotten worse if I remember the incidents with Dominik's mother. However, I always believed that I surrounded myself with the right people, not only with my family but also with my small group of friends, whom I adored and still adore with all my heart."It's just that if you think about it carefully... If Victoria and her husband are really in love as the magazines say, it only has to do with the fact that Victoria was a virgin and is young, she has no other value as a person, do you remember the ridiculous thing she did in the play last year because she got nervous on stage?" Comments one of those cruel girls."Victoria must do very well in bed to have caught that man" Commented another on
Dominik POVWith a sigh, I park my car in front of Victoria's school, looking around curiously, does she really study here? It's quite different from the private school I used to attend, which looked more like a campus full of various buildings with medieval decorations and architecture, to this school building which looks like a simple apartment building, and a cheap apartment building at that. I guess it's because I haven't visited many public schools throughout my life, but I can't help but be curious to see this."Maybe... I should have insisted on switching Victoria to a private school earlier" I say in a whisper, somewhat regretful upon seeing the precarious study establishment Victoria was studying in, but it was too late for that, as Victoria would soon graduate from this place, which is a pity.Sighing, I open the driver's door of my car, and quietly walk down the driveway outside the school. Outside the establishment, there are still several students,
Dominik POVWith a sigh, I finish signing the hiring reports and send rejection letters to the applicants we were not going to hire for the company. It was Saturday, so the work was much simpler, just the rest of the homework that could not be done in the rest of the week, and that was due if or if not, so we went to extra time on the days off to finish it all.In my case, due to the incident at the school in Victoria yesterday, I could not finish reviewing the application letters for the applicants to the company, so I had to take Saturday morning to finish my work. But I didn't have too much to do, it was a somewhat simple job for me, since my employees had already reviewed the applications and had already chosen their favorites, I only had to review the reports they made on the applicants and sign the admission and rejection letters. Since it was a simple and easy job, I hoped to be able to finish everything before noon, so I could go home and stay with Victoria.
Victoria POVSighing, I lay on my bed with my eyes closed. Like every Saturday, while Dominik is at the office or at his private gym inside the apartment, I stay in my room studying. I'm going to graduate soon, which means I'll have to apply to get into a good university and get a scholarship, something that's quite difficult for me since it's quite competitive to achieve something like that.Having a good GPA in school is half the way, I also have to study to take the entrance exam to the university I'm applying to, which will probably be the hardest and most important exam of my whole life. I know I can repeat the exam, but if I take it next year or next semester, I will not be eligible for a scholarship, so I only have one chance, just one chance to pass that exam and get into a good college.This effort is necessary to fulfill my dreams.So even though it is a bit heavy, I am studying all the free time I have available, to prepare myself for that very
Dominik POVWith a sigh, I stopped my car in front of Victoria's parents' house. On the other side of the front door, I could see a light smoke in the air, as well as a rather pleasant smoky smell wafting up to my car, which meant only one thing: The barbecue for Victoria's grandmother had already begun.I divert my attention from what seemed to be happening in the backyard of the house to Victoria when I hear her sigh. She doesn't seem too happy that she came, looking at her house with some suspicion, she even seemed annoyed that she had to come here, something that makes me feel guilty. I know I asked her to come here but maybe I pushed her too hard, maybe I went too far with her asking for something like this, and it worries me since if this meeting goes wrong, I will be the one to blame for asking to come to this place."If you want we can stay in the car for a while longer before we go to the party" I propose to Victoria.She hesitates for a moment b
Victoria POVTaking a deep breath, I listen as in the distance behind these curtains, the wedding march plays, by that nice band we had hired for our wedding.I didn't have fond memories of my first wedding. I was in a funk, with the news of my arranged marriage and after getting such an impression of Dominik and his family, it was practically impossible for me to enjoy that ceremony. Besides that as such, that was not my wedding, it was Dominik's mother's wedding, that insufferable woman was the one who was in charge of organizing most of the details of my wedding, from the hors d'oeuvres to my dress. So that whole party and ceremony didn't feel like my own thing, it felt like my duty to marry Dominik.But my second wedding... It's something different.For a long time when I regained my memory, I felt extremely regretful and stupid for having signed my divorce with Dominik, for having been so unconscious to sign those documents. For because of my mistake
Dominik POVI open my eyes in the middle of the darkness. After having sex with Victoria in an uncontrolled manner several times, I end up surrendered in bed. Sometimes I think I should improve my physical condition just for my wife, who has become insatiable.Abandoning my thoughts as I turn in bed, I soon wonder where she is right now, as next to me there is no one, there is only the empty bed. With a yawn, having regained some of my energy from that short nap, I stand up and grab my underwear, putting them on and deciding to leave the room to look for her.It didn't take long to find her, seeing her in the main room of the suite, wearing my shirt, and sitting on the floor looking outside through one of the large windows.Smiling at the sight of her, I slowly approach her, sitting behind her and hugging her back, "What are you doing, didn't you rest?" I ask kissing her on the neck.Victoria smiles playfully, and entangles her fingers with mine in
Victoria POVIn the middle of this beautiful room, which made the most beautiful memories flow in me, I couldn't help but melt with Dominik in a passionate and long kiss, while my body stuck to his, and his naughty hands started to slide down my waist, reaching my buttocks and pressing my buttocks."Dominik..." I say in a whisper breaking our kiss when he presses my buttocks on the thin fabric of my dress.Smiling in a somewhat shy way, Dominik says to me, "I'm sorry Tory, I don't think I can control myself right now."Smiling reassuringly at him, I take his face in my hands, saying, "I don't want you to control yourself."Those words coming from my lips are enough to drive my husband crazy, who takes me in his arms, and with quick steps heads to the suite's bedroom, making me laugh. Yes, he is quite impatient...My body bounces on the soft feather bed of the hotel, the same one on which I once lost my virginity to this man I love with all m
Dominik POVShortly after Derick's nanny arrives, Victoria and I leave our house for the city. Unlike our short married life without children, Victoria and I no longer had as many freedoms now, as we could stay out all night at a party and return at dawn, Derick was still a small baby, and he needed Victoria by his side. Still, we could definitely do something in the little free time we had.I love my son with all my heart, but secretly, if only I had wished my time alone with Victoria as a slightly freer couple had lasted longer.But there is no time for regrets now, and enjoying my young son and my now stable family, I can only long for my times with fewer responsibilities in the past."Wow... We haven't been here in a while" Victoria says, as we approach the most luxurious hotel on the island."I know, when we arrived I had planned to come here often, but I think we only came here for the first few days of our arrival," I say unable to hold in s
Dominik POVFeeling loving kisses on my face, I barely open my eyes and see Victoria's smiling face next to me, something that immediately makes me smile too, as I love to see her so happy and next to me."Hi," I say looking at her."Hi..." She answers me, lowering her gaze immediately to our son, "Were you guys taking a nap?""The baby was taking it, and I... I foolishly fell asleep too.""It's okay, don't worry, you've worked hard these days, you deserve to rest too."Holding her things better, Victoria stands up, walking to one of the furniture nearby to put her phone on charge.After all, getting back to my life with Victoria wasn't difficult at all.I was able to enjoy her last few months of pregnancy when she was in such a delicate state after all the horrible things that happened to her because of me. I still didn't mind taking care of her at all, and I kept her like a princess at home during that time.My mother
Victoria POVWith a sigh, I take off my sunglasses, listening as my phone alarm beeps steadily, signaling to me that my relaxing time on the beach is finally over.Honestly, I wanted to enjoy however I could these last days I have in this paradisiacal place with my family, since after almost 6 months I was going back home for my wedding, and I wanted to enjoy a natural tan for that. So looking at the sunset sun over my head, already practically disappearing on the horizon to give way to the night. I understand that it's the right time to head back home. I still have a couple of days to come to the beach to soak up some sun before returning home.Almost a year has passed since my accident and my reunion with Dominik, and during all this time... My life has been perfect, better than a dream.Just as I had anticipated, in the month of March, my little boy was born without a hitch. My beautiful Deric Evian Meyer was my greatest love next to his father, and al
Victoria POVI felt like I was in heaven, having just woken up from a long dream, a nightmare. But now I had all my memories, my memories preserved, I finally knew who I was and I could return to the arms of my beloved husband.I know our relationship is not perfect, I'll be damned if I ever suggest that it is. However, amid its imperfection, I was happy with Dominik, as I believe we both compliment each other and have the ability to make it all work thanks to being able to do that, thanks to being able to be ourselves and find understanding and affection in each other. I don't see myself next to anyone other than Dominik Meyer.So when I feel his arms around my waist, touching my bulging belly, I can't help but get a little emotional and just want to cry. Since I signed the divorce petition foolishly, and for a moment, just a moment, I feared I was going to lose Dominik. Even more so tonight, when for just a couple of seconds, he almost left me again.Tu
Dominik POVAfter thinking about it... I decided that I was definitely not going to give up. I know what Victoria had told me, I know the desperate way she begged me to get out of her life... And even though I was really considering doing it so as not to upset her and not to make the situation even worse... I understood that I couldn't do it.I couldn't disappear from her life and from my son's life like that, I couldn't be a coward and abandon the only family I truly love in this world. For my son and for Victoria, I had to keep fighting for them until the end.So, apologizing to all my employees, whom I had made come to work in vain on such an important date as Christmas Eve, I suspended my trip and asked them to keep the plane. I was not planning to go anywhere.I was determined, I was going to get my family back at any cost, and I planned to start doing that right now if necessary. So grabbing my little luggage and my phone, I was already calling a ca
Victoria POVI felt like I was in some kind of loop, some kind of replay of time and events, as in the middle of a snowy night and so much hustle and bustle, I was running through the streets heading for the airport, to find the man I love and the father of my children.Praying it's not too late.After leaving Dominik's building, the one in which we once had our apartment, one thing became clear to me: Dominik was planning to leave, and that was something I could not allow. So taking all my courage, adjusting the scarf around my neck, and getting very serious, I decided to get to that airport to stop him, even if I had to walk in the snow with my pregnancy, I was determined not to lose Dominik for a second time.But fortunately, when I was arriving at the center of the city, in the middle of the strong gales hitting my face and the snowflakes that had started to fall from the sky, I met the least expected person."Miss Victoria?" I hear as a very f
