"She has everything to do with us. I know how much she humiliated me to stay away from you and in the end, you picked her over me."Connor grumbled, massaging his temple. "Please stop. I thought we settled this already.""Having uncomfortable conversations is part of it. I have to know what I'm into and what's to come. I see no ring on your finger but that's still not enough proof that you're done with her."Connor sighed."There's nothing between us, I promise you.""I only agreed to marry her to escape my responsibilities to you. I never loved her, nothing ever worked. We lived in the same house but we had different rooms and hardly saw each other. When she's home, I'm away on a business trip, when I'm home she's probably on tour or something.""I started the divorce process but got no strength to pursue it after that fucker agent told me that there was no baby and that you had moved on.""But lately, things between myself and her have been so crazy that I really got back into the p
"This is not fair." She mumbled, trying to suppress a moan."What? Why do you say so?" He whispered, the desire in his voice not going unnoticed."What are you doing to me? You are meant to make me sleepy.""Oh, you are not sleepy?" He feigned innocence, still playing with her boobs under her dress."You're not being fair, Connor" She grumbled."Sorry my Queen, I'm trying to make you sleep in the best way I know. Or is there any other method you like that you intend to tell me of?""Connor!!!!" She groaned."Yes baby, I'm all yours. I love it so much when you call me by my name.""My room isn't soundproof?" She explained."So?""Don't be dumb, we are gonna wake everyone in the house. Jayden's room is next door.""What are you trying to tell me? Be direct. Don't go through corners." He said, applying pressure, and playing with her nipples."I'm not trying to tell you anything. You're the one distracting me." She moaned, trying to keep her voice low."Oh really? Tell me how baby?""Fuck
"He's in my room. Let's go."With the help of his mommy, Jayden got down from the bed.He hurriedly put his feet into his Crocs. "Ready Mommy."Nancy chuckled, smiling down at her son's legs."You might want to correct that baby."Looking down at his feet, smiling shyly, Jayden changed the way he wore his shoes by putting each one on the correct leg.Once done, he intertwined his hand with his mother's own who was already on her feet.Then they both exited Jayden's room.The moment they got to Nancy's room, seeing that Connor was still sleeping, she quietly shut the door after they helped themselves in, and crouched towards Jayden whose eyes were glued to the person on the bed."That's my Dada?" He whispered, smiling, an act he learned from his uncles, Kylan and David whenever someone was sleeping.Nancy nodded. "You wanna go say Hi to him?""Dada is sleeping!" He whispered, making Nancy chuckle."He's been dying to see you so it's okay to wake him up. He's not going to be mad at you.
"Why are you shy about this? There's no way you are going to avoid this conversation.""What now? You're into babies? I thought you don't like kids?""That was before. Jayden made me change my mind.""You don't expect me to believe that.""You should because it's the truth.""I love us together already.""Jayden looks so much like me and it just makes me curious to want to have a daughter with you. I'm hoping she's going to take after your appearance.""You just wanna get into my pants.""I know you know that's not true. Just prepare your mind because it's definitely going to happen.""For someone who is still trying to earn my trust, you seem too confident. Don't you think so?"Connor smiled shyly. "I don't know if that's a good or bad thing. But you should have it in mind that I can be quite persistent when it comes to what I want.""You don't have to feel uncomfortable about it. It's going to be when you are ready.""Mama, Dada, are you done kiss kiss?" The little voice came throug
"Hi, baby.""Dad? Where are you all?""At your uncle's place.""When did you decide that? I thought we all agreed to go together. This is just past 9 am. When did you all leave?""We left at 6. We didn't want to disturb you and your guest and we checked up on Jayden. He was still sleeping.""Were you aware of this? You knew before yesterday that Connor was going to come? I feel so betrayed right now.""I had no idea, my love.""I know you're mad at me but you really need this. You both need your space. Henry is not angry that you and Jayden are not here. He understands.""That's not the point, Dad."She heard her father sigh."I spoke to Connor. We talked at length.""So what now? You forgave him for ruining your daughter's life.""Don't try to pin anything on me to avoid your reality, Nancy. I saw and heard you both last night before you retired to your room with him.""It's obvious that your heart yearns for him and I'm not going to stand in the way no matter how I feel because this
"I don't mean to intrude but at this point, I feel it's good if we go straight to the point and not waste anybody's time.""Connor loves you and he wants you now more than ever. If you don't feel the same way about him, let him know and if you do, maybe you should just give him a chance.""I know you still love Connor and I've always liked you for him. He has changed now. I promise I'm gonna kill him with my bare hands if he messes up again."Nancy couldn't help with the smile that crept to her lips."Did he tell you to call me?""No. I haven't spoken to him since yesterday. I felt really at peace when you said Jayden loves him already. My brother deserves the best and you're the best.""Stop flattering me, Nadie.""Connor is a sweet guy. He has come to his senses and he's going to make you happy.""I'll think about it.""Promise?"Nancy chuckled, "Okay, you are sounding like Lenora now."Nadie laughed."I'm just obsessed with you both. You all have been through so much and I want you
The plan was to leave for California on Sunday evening but Connor got carried away with a lot of things that they ended up leaving Monday midnight.Straight from the airport where the driver picked them up, they went to Connor's private apartment. A luxurious two-bedroom apartment with the finest amenities and furniture which he owned for a year now without anyone's knowledge. Connor put Jayden to bed in the master bedroom after which he brought their luggage to the room and gave Nancy a tour of the apartment.While Nancy got acquainted with the place, Connor took a shower and got dressed since he had to be in the courthouse by 9:30"You just can't take your eyes off me, right?" He teased as he approached her, adjusting his tie."Why do you look so good in everything?"He smiled proudly, "I'm all yours so you are one hell of a lucky woman."She couldn't help but roll her eyes at him."If you keep doing that, I promise you that I'm not going to leave here.""Do you only think about se
"Guy!!!!! Are you even listening to what I'm saying?" Ivan freaked out because at this point, it was as if he was talking to himself as Connor kept chatting away on his phone with smiles all over his face."Sorry, I was...." He started to say, but stopped to stare at his best friend."What did you say again? I stopped following when you said the negotiations with Mr. Adam didn't go well.""Really? So I've been wasting my time?"Connor chuckled, "Sorry, I have to keep in touch with my babe.""When did you turn romantic? It's quite irritating.""Are you jealous right now?""No. It's just weird seeing you this way because of a woman. You've changed so much and you are all smiley. We made a vow to be womanizers and here you are, all loved up. What am I going to do without your company?""Get a woman!!""That's impossible. You know I can't stick to one woman.""Then don't ask me for advice again.""Come on, Connor. Be serious."Ivan sighed. "Is this really how it feels? To be in love?""No
EPILOGUETWO MONTHS LATER"Alice said you wanted to see me," Nadie said the moment she approached Nancy in the bedroom."What's wrong?" She started getting worried as she approached her where she was seated on the bed.She finally took a seat beside Nancy, looking into her eyes, she saw that she had cried.Nadie's heart sank. "What's wrong?" She couldn't help but get worried. They've all been happy and having fun since the first day of the trip. She couldn't help but wonder what went wrong now.Nancy sniffled, she reached for some items on the nightstand and handed them to Nadie whose face was instantly replaced with relief and a beautiful smile crept to her lips the moment she took a good look at them.There were three clear blue tests with positive results on the face of it."I just realized I haven't seen my period for two months and then this is the outcome of the test I took."Nadie couldn't help with the laughter that escaped her lips.Nancy glared at her. "Not funny Sis.""Sorr
