All Chapters of No More Sweet Sugar Baby For You Daddy: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

~ MARIA BELGRAVE ~ Mr. Edwards followed my father’s wishes, and everyone filled a conference room at Belgrave Tech. I stood with Josy in the back. We avoided excessive interaction, like my father’s funeral. Jacqueline and Sabrina seemed happy to take attending them. Which gave me the chance to hear their narrative. David had insisted that we come with him today. He’d brought the bodyguards with him as well. He at least didn’t linger by my side, and he didn’t play court to Sabrina either. Sabrina still glared at me several times. I tried to pretend like this process bored me and I tried not to watch David. During a break, Sabrina walked up to David and confronted him. “David, I must speak with you right now in private.” The urgency in her voice revealed her desperation. “This isn’t a suitable time. After we’re done here, we’ll talk.” David said to her. His words brooked no argument, yet Sabrina didn’t hear tha

~ DAVID HARGROVE ~ What is Maria thinking confronting Sabrina like this? Isn’t it bad enough that these two were acting like fools? Jacqueline and Sabrina were being unreasonable. They’d made their beds and yet they weren’t willing to stay in them. I’d seen Jacqueline speaking with Martin Howard in the corner. A board member and one head of human resources. They’d been arguing. Jacqueline knew Jake was interested in her, but we couldn’t hear their argument. Josy slipped into the corner after Jacqueline and Martin left the ladies’ room. No one noticed when Josy pulled her phone from a potted plant. I almost missed it. Without her phone’s appearance, I couldn’t recognize her acquisition. As she returned to her chair, she gave me a false, innocent look. How did she know to record Jacqueline’s conversation? I’d have to get Jake onto finding out what Josy had gained there. I’ve learned how to monitor Martin. Martin had access to everyone in the

~ DAVID HARGROVE ~ “Sabrina, you can’t question or demand an answer to those questions. It’s just a business arrangement; you waived the right to demand answers like that. So, stop this line of questioning or I’ll start asking questions and I’ll expect answers. Answers I’m sure you won’t want to give me. So, do yourself a favor and drop it. I must go now for work. Take your mother and go home. You aren’t needed here.” I informed her she’s not wanted there either. She knows her time is limited and I don’t want her. But Sabrina’s pushing everything in all directions. “Why can’t I? I’m supposed to be your fiancée. Recognize my presence to acquire the company.” “We haven’t made our engagement official so what you’re saying doesn’t make sense. Since you’ve shown no interest in working for this company it seems odd that you would show up here now. Go home. I’m sure you have some packing to do as you’ve weeks before you must move out. Come to thin

~ DAVID HARGROVE ~ “David.” I ensured Maria knew I understood her life. It’s difficult for me to accept her lies about her life. Maria had omitted important and huge parts of her life, along with her identity. Her health, safety, education, and identity. Maria kept it all from me and now I’ve learned about it from third parties. Someone could have murdered her. I’d never have known why. It would never have crossed my mind to set her up with her own security beyond that at the condo building and her driver. Maria should have stayed in the condo with a security team. She’s mine and I look after what’s mine. How can I proceed without knowledge of the surrounding dangers? Maria lacks understanding of this importance. Her identity changes everything. If someone killed her under my watch, how would that appear to everyone? She would abandon me to face her loss and the world’s condemnation alone. Yet she sits here acting like she’s

~ DAVID HARGROVE ~ I dislike this, but I needed to confront Maria and inform her of my actions. However, here’s what surprised me. I’d thought of telling her about what I was doing. However, this is where everything went wrong. Maria’s shown me more now than she’s ever shown me before. Maria believes I don’t see her as a person. She just said I abuse her, but not just that, I maintain a double standard. That’s what she said. I abuse her and treat her as an object, while I disabuse others of doing that. It’s mindboggling for me, but as I think about it, I can’t deny it. Fuck. Maria listened to me and went silent. But I could tell that she wasn’t happy, and I couldn’t blame her. I screwed up again. How did I miss my mistakes when I made them? I don’t understand. “Maria don’t get upset over this. Let’s agree that we’ve made mistakes which we both regret. It’s something we can correct in time. My people are gathering evidence and
