Noah's POVI woke up with a spin on my head; it was as if my head was gonna split into two any moment from now. I tried to massage my temple while studying my environment. Of course, I don't need magic to know this is Racheal's room, but how did I get here? I guess that would be a question for another day.I twitched my face to the effect I got on scouting around for Racheal since I was supposed to wake up with her by my sides, and I felt slightly embarrassed for my wish because I didn't think I deserved that. Before I could go on drowning myself in my dad's thoughts, I waved it off with my palm resting on my forehead, avoiding unnecessary craning or twisting around.Before I could raise myself out of the body, the sudden brush of my hands against the lamp deck made me realize Rachael cared for me, leaving great guilt in me.She doesn't deserve me, She deserves someone far better than I was. I winced in pain at the sudden reminder from my head not to waste any more time pondering on m

I opened the door only to meet a familiar silhouette sitting comfortably while having her legs crossed above each other."Hi, Noah," She said with a sly smirk which almost got me nauseous. "I cursed the day I met this fox". I cursed inwardly.Wearing my dark sneer smile, I walked straight to my desk before sinking myself in my office completely neglecting her.I heard her scoff which I still decided not to hear."Hello Mike"Twirling my pen impatiently, I dialed Mike's office number and as if he had been expecting my call he picked it up with no delay."Where is Roseline " I asked through my gnashing teeth.Mike noticed the change in my tone and the obscurity it carries."Hope everything is well Mr Gordon?""Not really just that I have an unwelcomed guest and I know she can only have access if someone has willingly granted that."I said why squirting at Kim halted her track a few inches away from my table. I could see the way she opened her mouth before pressing back into a thin line.

Rachel's POV*The ringing of my phone shattered the silence of my office, and I glanced at the screen. It was Noah, calling from his private number. My heart raced at the sight of his name, but a wave of frustration washed over me. Why was I feeling this way? I thought I knew what he wanted, what we wanted—but now it felt confusing and distant, like trying to grasp smoke.I had been wrestling with my emotions lately. Noah wouldn’t stop calling and sending me sweet messages, but they felt like empty gestures, unable to soothe the gnawing emptiness inside me. It stung to think that maybe he only wanted our child, Ariella, and that felt so selfish. It twisted in my stomach, a knot of resentment and longing.Today was Wednesday, and I knew Noah would have picked Ariella up from school. I missed her more than I could put into words. The separation was unbearable; I wanted to hold her, to feel her warmth against me. The weekends felt too far away, and I ached for the moments when we could a

Kim's POV.I feel more like shit for going to his office...." what am I expecting" I snarled annoyingly at my stupidity..."That he was just gonna accept all because I said so!!" I went rambling on and off with myself but my dialogue was cut short by the notification that just bumped through my screen.It was the gossip platform I followed on I.G., I couldn't believe I could do such a thing but the sudden news they always brought for me then just had this way of calming my inner beast."What??!" I shit my eyes widened to the news before me."No way" I turned my car straight to Racheal's office direction. I know unlike Noah who I thought could do nothing on my unannounced visit, Racheal could do worse, and before then I would take the advance in serving her the hell worst I have in package.I smirked at the idea that just popped through my head just now."Sorry, Mr Noah Gordon. I wish you keep to the end of my promises but the sudden announcement of your wedding with Racheal Houston co

KIM'S POV"You are insane!!"She said in an outburst not shocking me at all."Well, my big sister here .....oh sorry half big sister has impressed me and now I couldn't help not to give her a round of applause.""If you want to be the b*tch you are and also think bigger than your tiny brain, I would suggest you walked out of here just the same way you walked in.........I thought you had gotten more reasonable than I left you which made me allow your entrance but right now I am so disappointed. Mrs Houston hasn't done a great job"I almost snapped at her with the mention of my mom she dragged me into all this but I suddenly remembered I was still in the office and that wouldn't be a good impression on me."Enough of this insult, think Kim. Your coming here wasn't for this.......You are more prepared than this " I screamed inwardly at myself while locking my gaze which she averted only to tell me to close the door behind me.****Rachael's POV.Noah called me to ask if I saw the live in

*Rachel's POV*As I reached Noah's suite, a knot of anxiety tightened in my stomach. To my surprise, the room was filled with familiar faces—Mike, Rayla, his butler, and of course, Evelyn. The sight of her made my skin prickle with irritation. I cursed inwardly at myself for choosing this day, of all days, to come here. “Why would I pick the night of his proposal?” I scolded myself silently, feeling a wave of embarrassment wash over me. “What was I expecting?” I tried to keep my expression neutral, but I could feel the tension rising.Ariella bounded into the room, her eyes sparkling with excitement. She ran straight to me and wrapped her little arms around my waist. “Mommy! Daddy spoiled me with so much chocolate and ice cream!” she exclaimed, her voice bubbling over with joy. I smiled, feeling a warmth in my heart despite the chaos around us. But then she continued, “And my friends were all talking about how amazing the proposal was! They couldn’t stop blabbering about it!”Hearin

Noah's POV.I know the moment Racheal came in here, there was something under her sleeves but I decided to feign pretense as I had no idea of what she wanted to do."Did I hear her wrongly when she told me Kim came to her office?""oh shit" I cursed inwardly while still trying to maintain my calm demeanor not letting my emotion leak out into my countenance.Kim was one of the reasons I had to go on with my plan to broadcast my relationship and propose in my live interview with the TVC news.I was delighted when she told me she was going to let me be and leave my life, of course, I should have known that woman was just bluffing. I know how big a threat Kim was to my marriage or my relationship with Racheal and that's why I have to act up as fast as possible least when Racheal comes to realize the truth it would be easier to calm her down."Did I love her?"....."Yes, I love her enough to marry her especially when Kim wouldn't stop proving how wrong of me to have that soft spot for her a

Kelvin's POVI sat by the window of the plane, the world outside a blur of clouds and blue sky, my head resting against the headrest. It felt surreal, yet my mind was anchored to the ground—specifically, to the last conversation I had with Racheal. The weight of my emotions pressed down on me as I closed my eyes, letting the memories wash over me like a tide.Rachael's smile was the first thing that came to mind. It had a warmth that could light up the darkest days, a beacon of hope that I had foolishly taken for granted. I remembered the way she talked, her voice a melody that danced through the air like a gentle breeze. The way she swayed her hips when she walked—a simple motion that drove me wild. Each little thing she did captivated me, and yet, I felt like a fool for allowing my desires to cloud my judgment.I had made a huge mistake, one that gnawed at my insides. I let my selfishness get the best of me. I wanted her, but the truth was glaringly evident: she loved Noah. The fath

RACHEAL'S POVI woke up to the sound of my phone alarm only to switch it off immediately so as not to wake Ariella up, I glanced at little Ariella who wrapped herself in a protective nature to me with her little finger hanging around my waist."She was just so beautiful" I muttered while studying all the facial illustrations of her face starting from her fringe which seemed lighter in brown compared to the hair which looked so brown......She took her brown hair from Noah, which even made it difficult for me to conceal and resulted in me preventing her meeting with Noah.I chuckled lightly as Noah's flushed face came to my mind. She barged into our room when the tension was so heated between Noah and me, that we were close to resuming back our kiss while her sudden outburst into the room dismantled our position. Even when Noah was quick to mask his expression....it was still obvious to little Ariella which she deliberately spotted out."Mom, why is daddy's face so red like the big to

Kelvin's POV“Bella, did you say the company hired you to be my P.A.?” The words slipped from my lips, edged with incredulity. “Yes, sir. I passed through the normal process and submitted my resume online, though…” Her voice trailed off, and I could see the tension in her posture. I shut my lips tightly, forming a thin line. I knew I had said too much; there was no need for her to elaborate. “I asked a simple question, which you have replied to. You can keep the details,” I shot back, irritation bubbling beneath the surface. “Rude jerk,” she muttered under her breath, clearly unaware that I could hear her. “What did you say?” I countered, my tone sharp. “Nothing, sir!” Her response was quick, almost too quick, and I could sense her embarrassment. This trip to my mansion wasn’t going as I had anticipated. I had expected expertise touching, perhaps a touch of warmth—something to make me feel at ease. Instead, I was met with an unexpected rudeness. As I stood there, my eyes wander
