SAPPHIRE’S POV.

Daniel turned around, picked up the cloth lying on his bed, and walked to the closet.

I stood in my position as he walked away.

Did he not hear what I said to him?

This was a huge discovery and anyone would almost go crazy at it.

He did not even give any expression and I walked to the closet with him.

Shortly, he came out and bored his eyes on me. “You were saying something?”

“You did not hear what I said?” I frowned.

It took everything in me to tell him that but he did not hear?

Right now, I was wondering if I should just walk away or repeat my words to him.

It would be doing me good if I repeated them, else I would just keep living in fear of when the truth would come out.

When he did not answer me, I pressed my lips together and bowed my head gently.

The wave of nervousness that hit me was greater than none and I was starting to feel scared.

Should I just run away?

This man was looking at me, waiting for me to say whatever I wanted to say but that was scaring me mor

    DANIEL’S POV.I don't know what was more exciting. This woman finally telling me the truth or my reaction to everything she said.It was taking everything in me to not pull her into a tight hug for finally coming clean to me.It made me feel better that she was finally going to be and act like herself without bothering about what anyone would think of her.I know how hard it was for her to act like her sister. I know how pained she might get whenever people call her that name instead of her name.Doing this… was the best decision she could ever make, and I was sure that the peace that came with it was second to none.I watched the tears that dripped down her face as she shook her head in disbelief after I told her that.I wondered how she was feeling at the moment.What she thought was secret… was actually no secret.“How… how could you?” She stammered and I pulled my brows together.“How could I?”Was she going to get mad that I did not tell her that I knew about it?

Aside from my parents and Hilda, I have literally not heard anyone call my name.It was always Emerald.I know that I should be happy about how this turned out to be. No, I was happy.Yet, I could not stop feeling ridiculed by the man.His connections and how he found out about everything and set things right according to him were so crazy that I could not help but wonder how anyone could have such influence.I had married him in Emerald’s name but seeing my name on the marriage certificate made me scold myself for underestimating him.“You are my wife.”“I am responsible for you.”“Sapphire.”These words that he said to me literally made me want to rush into the huge man's embrace.I wanted to tell him ‘thank you.’I wanted to thank him for giving me a chance to come clean.Despite the fact that I hated that he knew about this and kept it to himself, I still appreciated that he did

    AUTHOR’S POV.Daniel stood by the chair in the dining room and dropped the glass of hot coffee in his hand. “Is she not coming?” He turned around and asked the maid who he had asked to go check on the woman.“Her door is locked from inside, so I could not enter, sir,” she answered with a bow.Daniel glanced at the wristwatch on his wrist and breathed out. It was almost time for him to leave and the woman was nowhere in sight.Maybe she had chosen to not work anymore.Since the Saturday night they had had that issue, the woman had been avoiding him like he was a plague.That was her forte after all. Running from issues instead of facing them was something she was good at and he decided to not overstep his boundaries too.He picked up the glass cup and drank the remaining coffee in it before he picked up his phone that was lying on the table.As he walked out of the dining table, he halted abruptly as he watched the woman that appeared in his sight.Daniel took in his lower lips as he s

I did not know she was your wife,” the receptionist said and they all bowed.“You did not?”“Come on,” Sapphire raised her head and nudged him gently.Everyone was watching already and it was starting to get uncomfortable.On the other hand, Daniel did not even look bothered.He curled his hand around her waist and dipped the other in his pocket.“That is why I wanted you to come with me. You like stressing yourself, don’t you, sweetheart?”“It’s enough,” she frowned through gritted teeth.“I hope something like this will never happen again. Be glad I am in a good mood, else I would have fired all of you.”“I’m sorry, sir.”Daniel turned around gently, his hand not moving from Sapphire’s waist as they walked away together.“Do you love showing off so much?” Sapphire asked him.Daniel shook his head and glanced at her. “Showin

    SAPPHIRE’S POV. Back at the elevator, before it stopped, Daniel had asked me. “So, are you settling for Emerald or Sapphire? I noticed that you looked uncomfortable when I called you that in front of the workers at home.” “Will people not talk?” I asked, not looking at him. Of course, I worried more about what people would say than how I was feeling. “Talk about what?” “Everyone thinks that you married Emerald, what if they start assuming things because the name got changed.” “When will you stop worrying about what people think of you? That shit would only hold you down, nothing more.” “You don’t have to worry about that. Just settle with one and I will take care of the rest. I promise.” Deep down, his words assured me. Promising that he would take care of it even though I didn’t know how he was going to take care of it made me feel so much relieved and I nodded my head. “Again, let’s keep our personal life away from work, please,” I added and at that moment, the elevator di

That woman does not even look like she has our time or anything,” an older woman said.“Who cares if she does not? It does not change the fact that she stole my man!”Oh my God, how many women are obsessed with Daniel?“Come on, Christiana, what kind of hatred is in your heart? Are you so bitter that the boss bagged a pretty woman?”“Do you see how she looks at me? She looks at me with so much contempt in her eyes! “Mr. Preston is not in his seat, would you check back later,”

    DANIEL’S POV.I curled my fist in a tight ball as I watched the two of them laugh so hard through the window.I wonder what they were discussing that made Sapphire laugh so hard.Tsh. She would not even laugh that way with me. I was returning from the meeting I had outside the company and now I was definitely regretting telling the woman to stay back.Since it was just a one-time meeting, I told her to stay back and because I wanted her to rest.Since she has started working as my secretary, I bet she must be feeling exhausted already as I kept having meetings back to back and she was always present at them.Yet, the woman did not complain, she carried out the work excellently that I had to wonder if she had worked as a secretary before.The previous day totally blew me out. I was in a meeting with a rival, and things were not going as planned.

    “Spending a whole three months in France made me assume that you and Daniel will not return here again,” Hilda snorted as she settled on the chair beside Sapphire who had her eyes glued on the big screen in the in house Cinema. “We had to return. I’m near my due date and we don’t want to deliver our baby there,” Sapphire smiled as she dropped her hand on her friend’s hand. “You really spent three months there! I thought it was just going to be a week or two vacation!” Hilda hollered. “Trust me when I say that I don’t even wanna return. It’s really fun there. Plus, we were not there all through the three months, we traveled to Rome, Amsterdam, and so on.” “Tsk, no wonder you don’t always pick up my calls.” “You nag too much, Hilda. At least you came to see us in France with Liam about two months ago.” “So? That is enough. You don’t miss me at all?!” “No, no, I’m not saying that. Of course, I miss you a lot,” Sapphire shook her head. “Oh, Pookie… come here,” Hilda leaned closer t

    FINALE.~~~DANIEL~~~I settled on the bed beside my sleeping wife and then dropped my hand on her stomach.“Amore, time to get up.”I stared at her sleeping, innocent face and then shook my head. Since we returned from Mogan’s party around eleven PM last night, till now, 10:56 AM, she had been sleeping.I proceeded to move the hair from her face and caressed her cheeks.“Amore.”When she did not answer nor stir in her sleep, I shook my head and then smacked my tongue.I do not like waking this woman. It usually takes a while before she answers.I raised my head as the maid walked out of the closet and I raised my brows, “Are you done?” I asked as I glanced at the bag in her hand.“Yes, sir.”“Take it to the car,” I said and she nodded her head, bowed, and then walked away.Today was the day I was going to show her the surprise that I have for her and I can’t wait for her to see it and be happy.I kept shaking her gently till she finally stirred in her sleep and then I exhaled. “Good mo

She just wanted to stay in bed and sleep, but it was Mogan’s party, and they gotta be there too.She panted as she felt beads of sweat gathering on her forehead and she wiped it off.She turned to look in the direction of the closet again and then Daniel did not come out still, she exhaled and shook her head.This was something she could do herself. However, she could not as she was tired and pregnant!She needed him to come help her, but he was not leaving the closet.“Babe,” she swallowed hard.When Daniel did not answer, She tried to wear the shoe herself but her stomach was making it hard for her so she just gave up again.“Daniel!” She snapped.“Amore, I’m coming,” Daniel came out of th

He was stripped naked and looked around in fear.“Holy Moly!” Liam exclaimed as he watched the video in front of him and then glanced at his friend who had no expression on his face.It definitely was his idea.“What are they doing?” Liam asked as his eyes met with the firewood on the floor centered on where Baldwin was dangling from.“Showing him what hell feels like,” he raised the corner of his lips i

Charlotte sat patiently behind the counter as she waited for the man to appear and after what seemed like an eternity, he walked towards her with two cell guards behind him. “See who is here,” he snorted as he settled on the chair and then tapped the glass which divided them. Charlotte stared at George and then nodded her head, she watched as the guards left them alone and then leaned her back against the chair. “You must have missed me, no?” George laughed. “You left without telling anyone. Should I be happy about your presence? You don’t think I am going to accept you, do you?” He raised his brows. “You… you look so good in that jail uniform,” Charlotte commented and then chuckled. “What?” George frowned. “That uniform. I said it looks so good on you,” she smiled again. “Hey!” “I heard you’re sentenced to twelve years imprisonment, with four years probation afterward.” “So? Do you pity me?” “Pity you?

I’m not going to seek validation from another man just because MY DAD, George, is in prison. Never. He treated you wrong… not me. Get your facts right, while growing up, I was loved by him. He hated you so it is understandable if you choose to accept another man. As for me, I am not interested in that shit. All I need is to get away from this fucking country and away from you all. I hate you very much and staying in this country with you all is messing with my head and I might want to do something bad again… you know I always do,” she breathed out and swept her hair to the back.“Have fun with your new father… but I don’t care.
