CHAPTER ONE

“ Congratulations Mrs Wells, you are two weeks pregnant.” The doctor’s words repeated played on my head as I headed out of the hospital. “Oh my God! Lance and I are having a baby, this is officially the best day ever!” I sequeled in happiness as it was so hard for me to believe that something this amazing could happen to me after everything that I had went through in my marriage with Lance. At the thought of Lance, a slight frown flashed across my face. Lance has been acting totally weird over the last couple of months. He’s getting distance, more angrier at me for making a slight mistake and even hit me few times. It's been four good years since I married Lance. I gave up him everything and abandoned so much for him but he gave me nothing except pain and despair. I knew Lance had always loved another woman; Ashely Miller, the woman who abandoned him. But with this child, I knew everything would change between us. Putting tthe test results on my bag, I walked down the hospita

CHAPTER TWO

I got out of my car and headed into the house, only for me to find both my mother-in-law, Laura, and sister-in-law, Morgan, at the entrance of the house with packed boxes. Seeing them like this, surprised me and at first, I actually thought they were traveling somewhere but with their dressing, it definitely doesn't look so. "Heading somewhere?" I asked with a bright smile on my face but Morgan only smirked at me as she replied me in a rude manner. “No, Maya. We’re not going anywhere. You are.” "What do you mean?” "Mom, she's a real drama queen. How can she act like everything's fine when Lance just served her divorce papers on a hot plate?" Morgan's said in a mocking tone that cut deep. What the fuck! They already know about everything? “Let's not say much. Just leave immediately.” My mother-in-law said with a dismissive hand in the air as Morgan continued making jest of me. The smile on my face faded immediately and my shoulders slumped. I really had no idea they already kn

CHAPTER THREE

I stumbled down the cold street with my clothes soaked from the rain. The rain had stopped but I couldn't but I was still feeling cold. As I walked down the street of LA, lost in my own misery, a man suddenly staggered into my path. He reeked of alcohol and he stared at me with his bloodshot eyes. "Hey there, pretty lady," he slurred and then grabbed my arm, pulling me closer to him. I was shocked and scared at the same time. I tried to pull away, but his grip tightened on me and I could feel his hot and foul breath against my face. What the heck! "Let go of me," I tried to break free from his grasp but he refused to let go of me. Panic surged through me and without even thinking, I swung my fist and gave him a very hard punch in his face. My punch sent him to the ground immediately and began to scream in pain. But why was he clutching his stomach? I only punched his face, not his stomach. Wow, this dude was a real actor….. As I tried to move closer to him, I heard the so

CHAPTER FOUR

After four long years of endurance and hardships, and at the end of the day, I still ended up divorced. Eight months ago, I thought I gained nothing from my marriage to Lance, but holding my daughter, Bella, in my arms made me realized that she was the blessing born from my pain. Bella yawned, opening her small toothless mouth and I smiled as her tiny hand gripped my finger. I remembered the labor vividly; the pain was far more intense than what my mom told me about. But what I was thankful for was that I gave birth to her successfully with no complications, and we were both healthy. The door opened, and Mom entered, carrying a tray of food. "How are you?" She asked, and I smiled. "She is fine," I replied, showing Bella to Mom but Mom immediately turned away, refusing to look at her. "I asked about you, not her," she said coldly. "But Mom, how long will you continue like this? This child also shares your blood but you and Dad treating her this way isn't fair," I lamented softly a

CHAPTER FIVE

FIVE YEARS LATER "The flight will be landing in the next ten minutes," Bryan, my secretary, announced as he slightly bowed his head. Bella squealed in happiness as she heard that, "Oh yeah! We're almost there!" "Are you really that happy?" I asked. "Of course I am, Miss Ariel," she said cheerfully, and once again, my heart panged with pain as if it were being pricked with needles. This was how I always felt every time she called me ’Miss Ariel’ and It hurt so much to see my own daughter unable to call me 'mommy,” instead seeing her calling another woman 'mommy.' It was nothing but a raw punishment, as I felt as if I was being killed over and over again. "Miss Ariel, why are you crying? Are you sad?" Bella asked in a sad tone with her puppy eyes blinking up at me, pulling me out of my thoughts. I touched my face and that was when I realized that tears had unknowingly slipped down my face and I quickly masked it with a wide smile. "Of course not! It's just that my eyes get lik

CHAPTER SIX

LANCE'S POV I stood in front of the mirror, buttoning up my shirt as the morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow across the room. I glanced at the wall clock and realized we were running late. "Honey, are you almost done?" I called out to Ashley but received no response. She had been stuck in the dressing room for quite some time now. The thought of being late to this event made my heart skip a beat. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity which I must not miss. I had been invited to a party organized by Marcus Roderigo, my number one idol. Meeting him had been my deepest wish for a long time, and now it was finally coming true. I couldn't believe my luck, as someone who simply owned a small company, being invited to such an exclusive party seemed like a dream. I wasn't sure if it was a mistake or if there had been some sort of error, but I was determined to make the most of it. “How do I look?" Ashley's voice snapped me out of my thoughts, and I rais

CHAPTER SEVEN

Her eyes widened slightly in surprise. “Are you referring to me?” she asked in a cold and distant tone as she pointed to herself.“Yes, of course. How can I not recognize you when we spent four years together? You have changed a lot, but…” I tried to move closer to her, but she stepped back, and I could see fear on her face as she seemed scared of me.“What do you think you are doing? Are you trying to harass me?”“Hell no! Why the fuck would I do that?”“I don’t know who you think I am, but you must be mistaken. I am Ariel Roderigo.” She denied bluntly and then turned to leave.“Maya Wells.” I called her full name, which she lived by for the four years she had been married to me, and she stopped in her tracks again. Seeing her stop made a smile grace my face as she could not denied that.Walking closer to her, “Wow, you have truly changed a lot. Is that why you are acting like you do not know me?” I scoffed. “I don't really know how you became the only daughter of A&R Empire, but tha

CHAPTER EIGHT

I stood in front of the mirror, feeling the gentle tug of Mia's hand as she dressed me in my beautiful white dress. Staring at my own reflection, memories from the event last night flooded my mind as he images of my clothes being torn by my stalker has been trending through everywhere. I recalled the expression on Lance's face, and a smile tugged at the corners of my lips. I really wonder how exactly he must be feeling right now and the thought of his distress brings me nothing but joy."You seem to be happy about the Bane family’s visit, or should I say about Kingsley's visit?” Mia's voice brought me out of my reverie. I arched my brow at her question, not knowing why she would make such assumption. “I saw you smiling just now,” she clarified in a her teasing tone.Kingsley's family is coming over today to talk about our engagement and wedding. I already insisted that there was no need for an engagement ceremony once the wedding date was set, but both my parents and his parents refu

CHAPTER NINE

As I wanted to reply, Dad cut in."There is definitely no way she’d know a riff-raff like that. Have you forgotten that she has been in Italy for the last nine years, so how would she know him? There are men like that everywhere, even in Italy, trying to get her attention, just like there are girls trying to get Kingsley's attention," Dad said, reminding him that there are also girls flocking around his son. Mr. and Mrs. Bane swallow hard at his words, knowing that Kingsley was quite popular among ladies. But I could guarantee his loyalty.Dad's face reddened with anger as he remembered Lance. "That scoundrel is in prison now, and I'll make sure he rots in jail for the rest of his life for what he did."Mr. Bane turned to me as if he had not heard everything Dad had just said. I would say he was just trying to be careful, as the last thing he would want was any scandal that would tarnished his image and his empire's. "Do you know this man, Ariel?"I shook my head, trying to keep my v

CHAPTER TEN

As the two families had already discussed the wedding and everything was finalized, Kingsley and I were set to have our engagement this month and our wedding next month. Dad and I walked Kingsley and his family to their car as they were engrossed in a deep conversation, while Kingsley and I trailed behind, our hands intertwined.The night was calm, and the cool air felt refreshing after the tension of dinner. I just hoped that all doubts Mr. Bane had about me would have completely disappeared with all the convincing stories my father and I gave."Thank you for coming. I really appreciate it," Dad said as we reached their car."It was our pleasure," Mr. Bane replied, a bright smile on his face as the security opened the car door for him.Kingsley turned to me, "I will call you," he said gently.I nodded, smiling up at him. "Okay, bye."Mrs. Bane looked at me, her eyes serious and filled with love. "Maya, if there's anything you're unhappy with or doesn't meet your taste, please let me
