For the first time in a very long while, Connor woke up not caring about literally anything. It was as if he woke up with a new goal which was to live life the way it comes and most importantly not get married to Diane or anyone else.

After being awake and staring at nothing in particular for about ten minutes, Connor got up from the bed at some minutes to 8 am. He went straight to the bedroom to do his business after which he started getting ready for work.

Connor was almost ready when a knock came through on the door.

"How's my not-so-favorite patient doing?"

Connor rolled his eyes, and went back to the room, taking a seat by the edge of the bed.

"Well, good morning to you grumpy one." She helped herself in.

"Nice place." She mumbled, placing the first aid box on the bed beside Coonor.

"I wonder if I'll ever see you smile again."

"Can you just focus on why you are here?!"

She scoffed, rolling her eyes. "You better be polite or I'll just pick up my things and leave."

    Connor strolled back to the nightstand where he reached for his phone. He ran a hand over his face and scrolled through his contact list.Finally seeing the number he was looking for, he dialed it immediately."What the hell is it that I'm hearing?" He said at the top of his voice, despite the fact that the person on the other end couldn't see him face to face."We are working on it, Sir but it's so hard.""So hard to do what? To get them to unpublish the rubbish they posted? Where are their fucking media ethics? Aren't they meant to verify any information before they start posting lies?""This is not a lie, Sir!""What do you mean? So you know better than me now?""No, Sir. That's not what I mean. I mean no one will believe us that it's false and we can't even sue them on any grounds because Miss Diane made a post about you both on her page. That is enough for the media to do as they please.""And based on our investigation, it was after Miss Diane's post that they started making the

    "You can decide to marry Diane and still live the life you want to. She might be your wife but you are free to do anything you want. Still go to the club, fuck as many babes as you want, date other girls and be you. It's only going to be official on paper but not affect your personal life.""Plus you get to keep the company, avoid your parents nagging and everyone will be happy.""The second option; you refusing to marry Diane. No doubt there will be lots of chaos, rejection from your parents, the company and all. And trying to file a lawsuit to claim your rightful position, it's just a lot to go through.""You work so damn hard, guy. You can't give up everything because of that fashion model. She's pretty hot by the way. I don't know why you never deeply liked her.""Just when I was about to hail you for saying something sensible, you had to ruin it with your last statement.""Just stating facts. I feel this isn't something worth ruining your mood or existence. Instead, see this as a

    "Is she a staff here?"Connor's phone almost fell to the floor but he was quick in getting a grip of it."Fuck! Mom! What are you doing here?" He caught his breath, exiting the message space and tossing his phone on the table."Why is your face flushed? Oh my God, don't tell me you just slept with that lady?" Lilian stopped in her tracks, staring at her son in horror.Knowing it was Alicia she was referring to, He groaned. "Mommm!""What's her name? I need to report her to your father. Her boobs were literally out. Is that how you all do here now?"Connor mentally facepalmed. He couldn't believe Alicia brought this upon herself."Please stop exaggerating, Mom. I'll never get involved with my staff. She probably had a wardrobe malfunction and that was why you saw her boobs. You could have brought her attention to it in her face.""I did. I wanted to but she got into the elevator so fast.""She's nothing, Mom. I've got better things to think of than her.""I hope so!" Lilian mumbled, re

    "8th Floor, Sir!" She said loud and fast, ignoring her shaky voice.Connor made his way to the elevator. He got to the 8th floor and followed his instinct to where he presumed her office was.As the head of the sales department, Alicia had the privilege of her own office. The office was glass-walled but not transparent for those outside to see.Just like she did earlier to him, Connor badged into her office."I knew you would come running!" She smiled, looking up from the laptop on her desk."What do you want from me?" He asked, coming to a halt in the middle of the room.Alicia smirked, slowly rising to her feet, then made her way towards him majestically, swaying her hips in the process.She hugged him from behind, the difference in their height clearly evident."I want you, baby." She tip-toed, placing a deep kiss on his neck."Get off me!"If she wasn't listening well, she would have missed that."You want this, baby. We both want this." She brought her soft hands to his chest, sl

    "Don't tell me you forgot an instruction I gave to you. I swear I'm going to fire you this time aro.." He finally looked up from his laptop, coming face to face with who he didn't think it would be."What the hell are you doing here?""It's been weeks since you saw me and this is how you welcome me?""To hell with you and whatever you are expecting from me. There's no way I'm going to get married to you so get the hell out of my office!"She said nothing but continued to make her way towards his desk and eventually took a seat on the visitors' side, with Connors eyes on her, glaring at her."Are you done with your tantrum?""Does this look like a joke to you?""I don't understand, why do you seem so pissed at me?""You know how I feel about marriage!""How do you feel about marriage?""Stop playing games with me, Diane.""I don't understand you. We've been dating for a long while, we go on trips together, we fuck, and we chill together. So who were you expecting me to get married to?"

    "You know this is like a dream come true for me.""You just confessed to being guilty. How long have you been planning this?""You don't have to be negative about everything.""So you being nice to me, hanging out with me, you've always had an end goal. To get married to me?""I know I like you a lot and I wouldn't mind that happening.""How much do you want, Diane?" He got straight to the point."You obviously don't mean what I'm thinking.""State your price.""How much do you think you're worth?"Connor stared at Diane for a couple of seconds, not knowing what to say.She stared back at him too."You can take your leave." He mumbled, gesturing for her to get off his lap.She shook her head."Since you came in, I've tried to be nothing but polite to you. Don't push me, Diane.""Don't do this to me, babe. I love you so much and I want us to get married.""I'm not getting married to you, Diane. My mind is made up.""But what exactly is scaring you about it all?"Connor chuckled, "You t

    Nadia stared at her younger brother in silence as he gulped down a couple more shots."Do you intend to get drunk here or you gonna get up and do what you ought to do?""This will only take off your pain for a while you know?""Instead of doing a face-to-face apology, can't I apologize over the phone? Or I can tell Cynthia to send a note along with flowers or chocolates or what is it that you women like?""You are now scared of Nancy?""Why will I be scared of her? Her presence has caused so much harm and I really do not intend to do anything that will cause further problems.""You're afraid you will want to have sex with her?""Oh, God, Nadia!""What? I'm only asking a question. Because I see no reason why you are finding it so hard to approach her.""Just try to do it in person.

    "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.

    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

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.

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.

    "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.

    "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.

    "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.

    "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 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.
