CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN.

DANIELLE'S P.O.V. The feelings that I experienced at the surprise dinner with Adrian were new; raw, and they were as terrifying as they were exciting. More than I cared to admit, these new feelings coursed through my body and surged through my being, every waking moment, in those days that led after the dinner. I could barely look at Adrian without my chest surging or without my heart beating as fast as a horse's gallop; it was frightening to feel and I feared, and dreaded, that moment when I would have to accept these feelings of mine for what they really were. The days following the surprise dinner rolled by faster than I hoped than they would and without much warning or alerting, the day of my truth finally arrived. That morning was like any other morning that I'd had in the house that I now shared with my husband. I woke up to the sunlight, in its full glory, shining its bright and luscious light; as usual, the morning sun light licked its way, mutely, through the closed

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWELVE.

lDANIELLE'S P.O.V. Sometimes, when I would find myself in a discomfiting position, I would imagine what it felt like to be breathless; I wondered what it would feel like to be completely, utterly, breathless and for every single breath of air to leave one's body. Truthfully speaking, I had always pondered the idea and the concept of shock as it was a phenomenon that caused me great intrigue. It usually was a feeling of distress and disbelief that one would have when something; either bad or good; happened accidentally. My reaction at hearing, from the doctor, that I was actually pregnant was a sick feeling of shock. "What?!" I asked, "Wait, what?!” I kept repeating the phrase into the phone as if I had never heard those words before in my life. I did not know why I said the words, and I did not even mean to say them but they kept coming regardless. I could call it an accident and I could also tag it a surprise but an unexpected pregnancy was not something that

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN.

DANIELLE'S P.O.V. As I made my way from the doctor’s office back to the front desk; this time with me following the lead of another nurse as the one who had brought me to the doctor’s office earlier had left to do something important; I wrenched my hands due to the barrage of jittery nerves that coursed through my body. I was way beyond anxious, terrified, and frightened; there could not have been better words to describe the way that I was feeling at that moment. On reaching the front desk, I could barely even muster up a smile in greeting to the receptionist. I replied her cheerful farewell with a reluctant and depressing one of my own as I was unable to pretend that my day was anything but dreary. The lift from the clinic proper to the parking lot below it seemed like one of the longest journeys that I had ever had to take. The air in the elevator felt stifling and suffocating and I was on the verge of breaking down right there and coming undone completely. I could only be gr

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN.

DANIELLE’S P.O.V. The air in the room stilled and the space suddenly started to seem smaller as I waited, with bated breath, for Adrian to say something as regards to the news that I had only just broken to him. I did not know what I had been expecting him to say or how I had expected for him to react, but I was definitely not expectant of the silence that he had decided to give as response to my revelation. Nearly half an hour had passed after I had told my husband about the results of the pregnancy tests that I had consulted and the only thing that he had done since I had revealed that information to him was to stare blankly at the living room wall ahead of him. I was tired of sitting in the quiet and waiting anxiously for him to give any other form of response and I desperately wished for him to quell the fear and nervousness that lingered in the depths of my mind and stirred in the pit of my stomach. When it was obvious to me that I would have to spend another half of an ho

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN.

DANIELLE’S P.O.V.The rest of the day passed by in a blur and I spent most of it in my bedroom; the one that I had been assigned before the accident with my father in-law, Alfred, had occurred, before Adrian and I had gotten much closer, and before I had started to share Adrian’s room with him due to the passionate activities that we frequently partook in. I spent the rest of the day in my very own bedroom, watching as the morning rolled into afternoon and afternoon into evening while I was deeply buried in my thoughts. By the time the night had rolled by, I was tired and exhausted of the anger that coursed through my veins as I replayed the day’s events over and over in my head. I could scarcely believe that Adrian could dare to speak to me in the manner that he had and my veins nearly popped from the livid thoughts that ran through my head. The only form of recourse that I experienced from remembering the things that he had said were the vengeful thoughts that soared through my min

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTEEN.

DANIELLE'S P.O.V. "Shut up!" Layla shouted. I could not help but laugh hysterically at her exclamation of shock. "You're not playing us, are you?" Sofia said, imploring me to speak the truth with her eyes wide open. "I kid you not." I said with my shoulders still shaking from the fit of laughter that Layla had sent me into. At present, I was on a video call with all three of my best friends and I had just done them the honor of announcing the news of my pregnancy to them. Their immediate reaction was to stay staring at me with dumbfounded looks on their faces; that reaction alone had sent me into hysterics and Layla's dramatic exclamation had only succeeded in causing my chest to tighten and my stomach to squeeze with laughter. "You had better not be joking, Dannie. If you are, I am definitely not going to let it slide. You know how vengeful I can be, right?" Janelle threatened. Then suddenly, without any warming, Janelle moved closer to the camera of her laptop with wh

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTEEN.

DANIELLE’S P.O.V.I had no idea how long I sat in my bed, my phone held loosely by my left ear with my left hand, and my eyes staring blankly at the screen of my laptop which sat in front of me. I could neither move nor speak, and I also could not fathom why I was having such an extreme reaction to hearing that familiar voice and confirming that I had accidentally picked up the phone call of the third one out of the three people that I wanted to avoid the most at that moment; the first and second people being both my husband and my father respectively. “Hello, Dannie?” I heard Chase ask in inquiry of whether I was still on the phone or not. I could not bring myself to reply him my mind started to race with the most ideal and quickest way that I could get myself out of the mess that my being careless had cost me. “Dannie, I know that you can hear me. I know that you are listening to me.” He said. His statement received no comments from me as I continued to keep my lips tightly pres

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN.

DANIELLE'S P.O.V. “And I am also sorry for showing up at your bachelorette and wedding reception, unannounced and uninvited. It was very rude of me to do so; I should never have overstepped my boundary.” He apologized once more. When I heard Chase say that, the first thought that came to my head was that he was doing what he knew how to do best; and that was lying. I found it hard to believe that he was actually sorry about crashing both my bachelorette party and wedding reception. Even though I had neither enjoyed nor wanted either one of the two occasions at that time, I did not welcome the intrusion of Chase into both of those parties. Given that he had said so many things; the fact that he wanted me to elope with him on my bachelorette party, even if that was the first day that I would be seeing him after he had hurt my feelings and left me completely dejected; and also at my wedding reception, where he had claimed to know more about my affections for my husband than I ever

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETEEN.

DANIELLE’S P.O.V. When I woke up with a heavy head, dry throat, and a groggy feeling, I knew that I had been right in been reluctant to meet up with Chase in the first place; I realized, then and there, that the decision that I had taken was now to be one of my ultimate regrets. With a heavily throbbing head and eyes that felt like they had just been burnt by the sun, I looked around at where I was but I could see nothing except a small sliver of light from a little window. The lighting was poor and the only, very thin, stream of light came from that small window at the other end of the room. I peered around the eerie and unfamiliar room, trying to make sense of my situation and as I struggled to assess my surroundings, my head ached and my stomach retched. I was parched as both my tongue and throat felt dry, and I pondered how in the word I had gotten myself into such a mess of a predicament. How had I gotten into this small room with stifling and suffocating air? Why

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY.

ADRIAN'S P.O.V. “Our goal is to purchase and take over the Hamilton Hotel, which is currently ranked as number five for the best hospitality in the United States of America, and make it number one here in New York City and consequently one of the top ten global companies in the next five years.” said Drake Montgomery, Vice President of the Valentino Group of Companies; an empire that my father, Alfredo Valentino, my grandfather, and my great grandfather built and grew with their sweat and blood, and which I now, as their descendant, would inherit and was working my way through with my own sweat and blood as well. “As soon as we have publicized the announcement of our acquisition of the hotel, we plan on intensifying the orders of our services from the first world countries, including France, Great Britain, and Germany, to accelerate the growth of the hotel and thereby, achieve our goal.” Drake continued. “What does the financial statement of the business plan look like?” I ask
