Ricardo sat on the bed holding Alana's hand while the doctor examined her. She had regained consciousness a few minutes ago but he was waiting for the doctor to finish up and tell him what was wrong. "What is it? Doctor, is it serious?" Ricardo asked after a while of silence in the room. Although Alana was saying she was fine. He could see how pale she looked. "I'm fine Ricardo, just stressed," Alana said softly, she didn't know why Ricardo was overreacting when she was okay. "Mr Romero relax…your wife is fine," the doctor said with a smile and finished taking Alana's blood pressure. "She fainted, I'm sure something is wrong, I trust you so please tell me," Ricardo said with narrowed eyes. He trusted the doctor before him. Doctor Thomas was his mum's old friend. It was good he met him in Paris. "Mrs Romero is stressed…please pay attention to her diet….she hasn't been taking care of herself," the doctor said calmly and took out a small notebook. Ricardo's gaze shifted to Alana but

“Ha! This is stupid…they can't make you step down because of one mistake," Brigitte said angrily while they had their lunch in a fast food restaurant. “They have a point… Marcela is giving them hell as we speak…but I just don't want drama,” Alana said while sipping on her smoothie. Brigitte frowned and looked around the restaurant. “We, they better get used to it…you are the boss's wife…and you've been working hard for this,” Brigitte remarked with a light smack on the table. Alana was a little bothered by the current drama. She would rather not do anything to tarnish Ricardo's reputation.“Bri, you don't understand…the position is a big responsibility… I'm sure others have been eyeing it and me being given like that… I don't know…” Alana knew too well how big companies worked. Ricardo's company was the best, she was certain some men wanted the position of president. “I don't understand why you are like this…tell me what's happening… I noticed that good-for-nothing ostrich throwin

(Alana)Joslyn was the princess of the Cooper family. Even when we were young, her parents used to spoil her. Dad danced to her tune. Her mom was pretty, despite her age. She was classy and made her husband do whatever she wanted. Joslyn was their only child.I looked at Joslyn's mom. I called aunt Maria and wondered why she was busy pushing my husband to do what they wanted. I wasn't a stranger to them, they knew my parents. But after this, I knew any better than to trust them.“Alana dear… I'm certain this won't be a problem, right?” Aunt Maria said while creasing my hair, I didn't understand why she was doing this just to make her daughter happy.“I heard you were forced to marry him…maybe it wasn't meant to be…as I see…” she said more shrewdly and trailed her eyes down, I saw as she looked at my belly “Jo is pregnant with Mr. Romero's child…it will be best if you let this go, I'm sure you understand my point,” she added, I was rendered speechless.“He's my husband, and we are unce

Alana was trying everything she could to ignore Joslyn and her mom. However, at the entrance, Maria made a mistake by saying something offensive. "Mom, don't say that…especially when the boy is around," Joslyn said mockingly while rubbing her hand on her belly, Alana held Santiago's hand tightly. Brigitte glanced at Alana and she nodded for her to ignore."Stop it, Jo…you know how these stepmoms are…monsters who beat their stepchildren… what can I say," Joslyn's mom said sarcastically, causing Alana's anger to flare up. They were by the entrance with the manager waiting to assist them. She didn't come to argue hence she smiled getting the manager's attention. "Mr Willy…I hope you remember me," Alana said, turning to the manager who regained his wits and laughed nervously."Y-yes madam, ease let's go in," the manager said gesturing for his employees to guide Alana inside. Seeing the special attention Alana was getting, Joslyn grew even angrier."Excuse me, but do you know who I am?"

The cold morning breeze and the songbirds chirping, had Alana shifting in her sleep until she realized she was engulfed in warm arms. As much as she was weak to move, she raised her head a little, mumbling something as she rubbed her eyes a little. "Mm," opening her eyes, Alana was startled when she glanced up and met Ricardo's sharp gaze. "Good morning," Ricardo whispered with a smile and moved his hand to her face. Of course, Alana was nervous as well as shy. Because she was on top of Ricardo while he was half sitting and leaning against the headboard."What…" Alana started but stopped when she realized something. Ricardo was naked and so was she. Seeing how her face flushed red. Ricardo smirked and adjusted himself until she let out a moan. "You!" Alana flashed him a glare and the ground could open up and swallow her whole. But that wasn't happening when Ricardo was teasing her. "Sweetheart…you look gorgeous in my arms," Ricardo murmured as he leaned down to Alana and kissed he
