Selenas pov
***************
“I am pregnant.” I felt thrilled and joyous at the same time even though I never planned to get pregnant now. But carrying Chris’s baby was exciting to me. However, I was a bit afraid because of my father.
He tried to persuade me to abort the baby but I was adamant to keep the baby, nothing would make me kill Chris and me.
No harm must come to my baby, but with time I started feeling numb. Father has trolled me with insults and was nearly physical with me the other day. I barely escaped unhurt when he threw the flower vase at me and it came crashing on the wall.

From what my personal assistant has told me, the whole family is in the boardroom, waiting for my arrival. I am also intentional about my dress code.

He is from the school that believes that corporate events have a dress code, not me. I wear what I want to my own company. It feels great to be at the helm of so much power at this point.
