Place where Nikolai could easily say where he belonged.The gates opened. The security recognized an unfamiliar face and took a long stare at her. Nikolai gave him a slight nod, and he nodded in return. ‘Wow.’ She's never been to a place as exclusive as this, and even more, a house with its own security.‘That man is my husband.’“You could have said no, Nikolai.” Belle said after Liam left the car and before Nikolai could open his side of the car door. She wasn't planning on going. One no from Nikolai w

The only person she can trust and run to at the moment is her brother, who offered to pay for everything she needed and to let her crash in his two-bedroom apartment. “I’ll pay you, Prez. I promise. I’m keeping a list of every penny I borrowed.”“I don’t care. Burn that list. As far as I’m concerned, there’s no list, there’s no debt.”She pouted. He’s being too kind. Losing her memory doesn’t mean she’s dependent.

Time stopped and in Preston’s own little world, there was no one else but him. Nothing else, but this picture. He knew what it was and of course, it’s his. He wouldn’t dare question whose baby it was. “Now, I finally get the peace and quiet I’ve been dying to enjoy since last night.” Claudia fixed her hair and her bare face looked better than how she looked moments ago. Preston got the picture and showed it to her. “When did you know about this?” “Last, last week.” She answered. Claudia’s unbothered. There was no hint of surprise or worry on her face. There’s even more emotion showing on him than hers. “And you didn’t tell me?” “Why do you think I’ve been forcing myself around you? I don’t want to go around and hang-out with people when I know I’m uninvited, Preston. I don’t even know what to tell you.” “You could start with a simple ‘I’m pregnant.’” He said.

I’m hearing him call my name from those lips and yet, it still feels like the first time.’It’s an impossible task not to get distracted. Nikolai looked like he was ready to jump anytime to get a hold of her. Belle settled with not meeting his eyes and keeping her eyes locked on the floor, or on his desk, anywhere but his direction.She made a wrong move. On his desk, there was a picture of Nikolai
