Mason’s POVWho could’ve done this to me?Angrily, I made sure that I wrote all of the accounting team's dismissal letter by myself because I have no idea how they could make such a grave mistake only because they saw my signature.“Don’t you know that signatures could be forged?! You could’ve checked with me first before…” thinking there was no point in completing my statement since the deed has been done already, I hung up the call.Pacing around my office trying to think of what to do next, I remembered there was a time my previous company needed a private investigator.Putting a call through to him, I explained everything to him from the leaking of pictures to the disappearance of funds and he understood.When I was sure that he would do everything without a flaw, we signed the contract and I hired him. Sinking into the ergonomic chair, I sighed as I pinched down hard on my nose.Hopefully the culprit would be caught before any more damage would be done.AVA’S POV It was late aft

Mason’s POVI had to leave for work early because the head of the security team had told me that we needed to do a two step verification Incase someone wanted to break into the company’s server again.“You know what to do, you put the passwords you want and only you would get to know it.” The head of the security team told me before leaving me to the devices.After thinking hard, I finally came up with a strong password that no one except Ava would know and even before she does she would have to do some critical thinking.Finally setting the two step verification up, I left the server room to my office when I heard a knock on my door and the secretary walked in.“The investor is waiting for you in the conference room and from the look of it he doesn’t have much time.” She explained and I sighed. I’m not really cut out for any meeting for now but I knew that I had to go for this one.“Stall him for like ten minutes but let him know that I’ll be there soon, I have to do something.” I re

Mason’s POVWith everything happening around I had no idea how long I could hold on for before snapping because I was already a ticking time bomb.Sighing, I decided to meet the investor for the meeting we couldn’t conclude the day before because of what had happened with Ava.“I’m sorry about yesterday,” I apologized and he only nodded in understanding as he smiled, “okay, let’s start.” I finally started as I projected my idea.After talking for a while, I could tell that he was impressed with the idea I’d pitched, “I’m making a promise to you that you really wouldn’t regret this.” I assured with a smile as I turned to look at him.“I’m in.” He beamed and I couldn’t help the wide smile that formed across my lips as I felt proud of myself and fulfilled because he’s a difficult man to handle.“I mean, the shares are juicy and you haven’t disappointed me so far, so, I’m doing this,” he continued, “prepare the papers and have them sent to me so that I can sign.” He added as he extended h

Ava’s POVI was glad to be returning back to work and even glad that I’d made a new friend. Preparing for work, I dropped Khalid off at his school before making my way to the company.The sight of the beautiful bouquet of roses on my table made me let out a slight gasp. I wasn’t expecting him to give me such a welcome.Making my way to the table, I picked it up and inhaled it deeply as I let the sweet smell that came from it flood my nostrils and intoxicate me.“He’s so thoughtful.” I muttered as I placed it properly beside me. Mason has always been so romantic and now he just made my morning.While I was having my seat I saw a small card sticking out of the flower and I’d thought it was a love note.My eyes widened when I saw who it was, I’d thought it was Mason but it was Chad instead. Shrugging and not thinking of it as anything wrong, I placed it gently next to my desk before going back to work.Opening one of the files on my table, I sighed as I started working on it. I knew that

Ava’s POVMy day at home with Khalid wasn’t boring, the boy is a sweet ball of sunshine and he assisted in every way that he could and I just knew that he will grow up to be a gentleman.“I love you, Ava.” His voice made me move my head from the movie we were watching as I turned to look at him.My heart fluttered and my cheeks flushed from Khalid telling me that he loved me. I didn’t expect that he would say it so randomly while we were watching a movie.“And I Love you too, so much.” I groaned as I pulled him closer to me and held him tightly before kissing his head.“I know you do.” He chuckled and I raised an eyebrow as I let out a laugh.“That’s pretty confident, how do you know that?” I asked.“You cook for me on time, I’m never late to school and you pick me up early. You never beat me too.” He explained and my heart sank.My stomach tightened and I just knew that all that must’ve been all Aisha used to do to him, “where is my mommy?” He asked, his voice jolting me out of my th

Ava’s POV Rushing out of the car, I realized that Mason was waiting for me, “What are you doing here?” I asked, my teeth gritting against each other because of the cold.“Waiting for you.” He replied as he pulled off his coat and placed it around me before pulling me into him in a hug.After a while of holding Mason, we both made our way inside the house and since we’ve promised each other not to keep secrets, I told him everything that transpired between Chad and I.“I knew I don’t feel comfortable with you around him,” Mason sighed as he wrapped both his arms against his chest.“I know and I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have gone for that dinner and all these wouldn’t have happened.” I apologized.“It’s fine,” he responded, “I just don’t want you seeing him anymore.” He added and even before he could complete his statement I agreed to whatever he had to say.I also don’t want to see Chad anymore, I knew the feelings he had for me weren’t just platonic. He likes me romantically and I don’t

Ava’s POVMy day has been busy as Mason and I attended meetings upon meetings and I was glad it was finally over when I made my way out of the conference room from the last meeting.I just got transferred to the financial department because I hated seeing Mason worried about the missing money and I also wanted to help out and get to the root of the matter.“Thank you so much for doing this,” Mason smiled as we both got my things to my new office, “I don’t know what I would have done without you.” He added and I laughed.I told him that I was going to see him after work and the both of us went back to our various posts as I tried to concentrate on what I had to do.I started to match the numbers on the papers and the summation of it all didn’t seem to make sense but it was all confusing and I was trying to figure it out when a sight caught my eye as I looked out the window.I saw Chad parking his car and he came out of it looking happy, he had what I’ll assume to be his best suit on an

Ava’s POVDanny’s burial soon came and everything was set and ready. The priest spoke before asking us to come make a speech.Walking up to the altar, I looked at everyone around and it felt like I had nothing to say about Danny except the fact that he was a good father to me.“When everyone was less supportive of me, Danny stayed with me, he could disbelieve a lot of things but he never stopped believing in me. He really is the best father in the world and I don’t think they make fathers like him because I think I took the last one.” I laughed and sniffled and the mood was lightened up a bit.“Danny had touched our lives one way or the other and I don’t think he would want us here crying, he was always so full of life and as crazy as it might sound, I think Danny would want us to be glad that he lived the best of his life.” I finished before walking off.Mason made a speech about his father too and watching him stand there just made my heart come crashing down.“We disagree on a lot

Ava’s POVThe blaring sound of my phone ringing jolted Mason and I out of our deep sleep and I groaned as I picked the phone up.Who could be calling me at this hour of the morning?Checking the phone, I almost jumped out of bed when I realized that the call was from my mother and I knew she wouldn’t call unless something is really wrong.“Hey mom,” I called into the phone while also tapping Mason who was already up, “What’s wrong?” I asked after a while of silence.“I… it’s Danny,” she sniffled and my eyes widened at once as I immediately prayed that it isn’t what I’m thinking about.“He had a heart attack and they just rushed him into surgery.” She broke down, I knew if she cried any harder she’d be perspiring.Turning to look at Mason who also looked really worried, I tried my hardest to console my mother while I asked Mason to get dressed so we could join them in the hospital.We could’ve waited till daybreak but it’s morning already and my mother needed all the support she could

Ava’s POVThe thought of Danny at the hospital was a down point for Mason and I and I was glad that I had my important people to help me with it while Mason works to also get his mind out of it.He had to leave Miami for San Francisco for the monthly business check-up to see how things were going on over there and I knew how much I’d miss him but work is work.“You know you actually have like 10 more minutes before your flight takes off and it’s just us here, the restroom might be vacant too.” I winked, I was at the brink of laughter but I didn’t want to break character.I know that we both needed comic relief and I was glad that Mason didn’t read the wrong meaning to what I’d just said and instead his eyes lit up but he soon burst into laughter as he pulled me into him.“If I had enough time you know I’ll take you right here and now.” He smiled before leaning closer to put his lips on mine.I adjusted his tie and watched as he made his way to the plane. The business check-up would la

Ava’s POVSOME MONTHS LATER.“Mason!” I yelled from the kitchen, I’d completely forgotten that it’s my due date today and my water just broke.The pain I felt from my back down to my uterus was unmatched and just at that point everything seemed irritating to me.I heard Mason’s footsteps coming down the stairs and the fact that he couldn’t have gotten to me faster annoyed everything out of me.“Oh my god!” He screamed in horror when he saw how wet the floor was, “Your water broke? What should I do?” He asked like he didn’t know that the next thing was to get to a hospital.I opened my mouth to speak but everything I wanted to say got caught up in my throat when the sharp pain came again and I clawed on Mason’s hand.Finding a way to release himself from my gasp, I watched as he ran out to get help from Nicole. I never thought the day where my best friend would be annöying would come.“Get your filthy hands off me!” I cried when Nicole touched me and I immediately regretted it because

Ava’s POVIt’s been a long day and the thought of the investor still annoyed me but I didn’t say anything to Mason because I knew that he isn’t going to take it easy.“Gosh, I feel seriously weak.” I groaned after running to throw up for the third time today as Mason helped me on my chair and I couldn’t do anything but place my head on the table to rest for a while.“We need to go to the hospital right now. Let’s go.” Mason ordered, making me laugh and I knew changing his mind would be hard but I tried and told him about how disappointed the investors would be if we failed at this.After a while of talking him into working for a while, Mason made sure that I didn’t stress myself or even leave his office while we both worked.The day soon ended and Mason and I drove to the hospital to run the test. I’ve been feeling lightheaded and nauseous lately and I just knew that I was pregnant but I also didn’t want to be too forward.The test results came out and it confirmed what I already knew

Ava’s POV“I don’t know, I didn’t get it last month too and I know that we haven’t spoken about having a child yet which is why I’m telling you about it now…”“Ava!” Mason’s growl made me swallow whatever it is I wanted to say next as I stared at him with fear written all over me.I was rushing my words like anyone was going to do something horrible to me if I didn’t tell him as fast as I could but it was only because I was really scared.What if he doesn’t want a baby yet? I know he loves me so much but what if he isn’t ready?I’d also planned to take a test but I also didn’t want to find out I’m pregnant alone, I want him to be there with me every step of the way and the fact that he hasn’t even said anything since he called my name was killing me.“It’s fine, we’ll go to the clinic after work today and we’ll find out if you’re pregnant or not,” he started with a smile on his lips as he took my hand in his.“You don’t have to be scared or rush your words while talking to me.

Ava’s POVLast night was a memorable one in our new apartment and it was like with each day that passes, the love that I have for Mason just keeps growing and I loved it.Getting ready for work, Mason and I stopped at a diner close to the office to have breakfast before going in for work. The nervousness I usually felt whenever we approached the company when the drama of the news about Mason and I first got out was now nowhere to be found.We finished eating as soon as we could and Mason held my hand as we both got to work and I could swear that I’d already heard a million congratulations today already and the day was just starting.“Congratulations boss,” one of the directors stopped Mason and I as he bumped shoulders with him before bringing out an envelope, “This is for you.” He added, handing Mason the envelope and pecking me on my cheek as we went about our business.Lots of people even took the Liberty to come to our office to congratulate us and they brought gifts too.

It was going to be my first time in the house and I couldn’t wait to see what surprise was waiting for me.“Just tell me what the surprise is?” I asked as I held Mason, begging him to give me reasons why he wouldn’t let me come to the house until it was time to move finally.“If I tell you or show you the picture of the house then where will the surprise be?” He asked and I pouted, I hated to admit it but he was right, it wouldn’t be a surprise anymore if he showed it to me.The cab pulled over and I could swear that I’d almost passed out when I saw the house. It was not only bigger than where we were staying before, it was even more beautiful and I blinked multiple times so that I’ll be sure that this wasn’t a dream.“It’s so beautiful.” I gasped as I took steps close

Ava’s POVTurning on my bed, I groaned as I sniffed and I knew that I wasn’t dreaming, a delicious aroma filled the air and that was what jolted me out of my sleep and not because I’ve had enough sleep.Opening my eyes, I savoured the sweet smell and that was when the sight of where the sweet aroma was coming from came. There was food on my bedside table.Smiling, I opened the covered food on the table to see varieties of foods, there was steak, sandwiches with tea and even a bottle of wine, orange juice and water for me to choose from.Moving to the edge of the bed, I decided to start with the sandwich and even though I didn’t want to, I couldn’t help but compare this current marriage to my first one.Mason had always been nice to me and despite the amount of time we spent together he never got tired of me. I knew he’d never change because he loved me so much but somewhere deep down inside me I still kept the thought of something terrible happening even though I knew waiting for some
