CHAPTER ELEVEN

Chapter ElevenThe resort was alive with music and laughter as the night party got into full swing. Bright lights danced across the manicured lawns, casting vibrant hues over the throngs of guests who swayed to the rhythmic beats. The air was thick with the mingled scents of perfume, cologne, and the lingering aroma of tropical flowers, creating an atmosphere that buzzed with energy and excitement.Wanda stood near the bar, nursing a glass of champagne as she watched the crowd. She had agreed to come to the party with Michael, hoping that a night of dancing and celebration might ease the lingering tension between them. But despite the lively surroundings, she couldn’t shake the unease that had settled in her chest. She glanced around, searching for Michael, but he was nowhere to be seen.Michael, meanwhile, was caught in a different kind of swirl. He moved through the party with a drink in hand, the alcohol loosening his muscles and dulling the edges of his earlier frustrations. He ne

CHAPTER TWELVE

Chapter Twelve Wanda stirred from her sleep, her eyes fluttering open as she felt Michael’s warm touch tracing the curves of her body. He was gentle, his fingertips brushing over her skin with the kind of intimacy that made her heart quicken. For a brief moment, she allowed herself to relax into his embrace, her mind drifting away from the recent tensions and the misunderstandings that had clouded their honeymoon. Michael’s lips pressed against her neck, trailing soft kisses that sent shivers down her spine. Wanda turned to face him, her breath hitching as his hands roamed over her, pulling her closer. There was a hunger in his touch, a need that he was trying to communicate through the delicate caresses and the heat of his skin against hers. Wanda’s body responded instinctively, her own desire flaring as she let Michael guide her. Their movements were slow at first, tentative, as if testing the waters of their fragile connection. But just as things began to heat up, Wanda’s stoma

CHAPTER THIRTEEN

Chapter Thirteen Wanda stepped out of the hospital, the cold London air hitting her like a wall. She pulled her coat tighter around herself, her mind racing with the weight of what she had just learned. Five weeks pregnant. The truth settled heavily in her chest: she was carrying Anderson’s child. The realization was both a balm and a burden, offering clarity yet stirring a new storm of emotions. She knew the timing perfectly. She hadn’t been with Michael, not truly, and her failed attempts at intimacy with him only confirmed what she already understood deep down. This baby was Anderson’s, a lingering piece of a life she thought she had left behind but was now more entwined with her present than ever. As she walked through the bustling streets of London, Wanda’s mind replayed the moment in the hospital over and over. She thought about Anderson, his desperation to keep her, his misguided love, and all the pain that had driven them apart. And now, here she was, carrying his child, an

CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Chapter Fourteen The return to London had done little to ease the tension between Michael and Wanda. If anything, the distance they hoped to escape during their ill-fated honeymoon had only grown wider. Michael’s mood had darkened since they got back, his temper flaring at the slightest inconvenience. Wanda felt as though she was constantly walking on eggshells, her every move scrutinized and criticized by the man she had thought she could start over with. It was a crisp, gray morning when Wanda decided to make breakfast, hoping to bridge the gap between them with a small act of care. She moved quietly through the kitchen, her movements slow and deliberate as she prepared a simple meal. She hoped that the gesture would soften Michael’s demeanor, even if only a little. As the smell of eggs and toast filled the air, Wanda set the table carefully, arranging the plates and silverware with a precision that belied her anxiety. She glanced at the clock, her nerves buzzing as she heard Mic

CHAPTER FIFTEEN

Chapter Fifteen Wanda stared at the cold, untouched dinner in front of her. The pasta that she had so meticulously prepared now sat in stark contrast to the empty seat where Michael should have been. She could still hear the echo of the door slamming behind him, a sharp reminder of his latest outburst. The silence in the room was deafening, punctuated only by the occasional clink of cutlery as Wanda absentmindedly pushed her food around her plate. She couldn’t remember the last time she and Michael had shared a meal without it ending in an argument or icy silence. What had happened to the man who had once promised her the world? The man who had vowed to cherish and protect her, who had looked into her eyes with such sincerity and assured her that they would build a life together, no matter what challenges came their way? Wanda rubbed her temples, the beginnings of a headache forming as she thought back to those promises. They felt like a lifetime ago, buried under the weight of all

CHAPTER SIXTEEN

Chapter Sixteen Anderson sat at the head of the long, polished boardroom table, his expression a mask of simmering frustration. The room was filled with the murmurs of the board members, their whispered conversations barely masking their dissent. Anderson knew that his grip on the company was slipping—his distracted leadership and the personal issues that had leaked into his professional life had given his opponents all the ammunition they needed. "Mr. Anderson, we've reviewed the latest quarterly reports," said one of the board members, a stern-faced man who rarely missed an opportunity to challenge Anderson’s authority. “The numbers are down across all major sectors. We’re seeing a decline in both market share and investor confidence.” Anderson clenched his jaw, his eyes narrowing as he listened. “I’m aware of the numbers,” he said tersely. “And I’m working on a strategy to turn things around.” The board member wasn’t convinced. “With all due respect, Anderson, we’ve heard that

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

Chapter Seventeen Anderson sat in his office, the weight of the recent board meeting still heavy on his shoulders. The threat of losing his position as CEO loomed over him like a dark cloud, and every phone call, every email felt like another reminder of the precarious state of his company. He stared at the financial reports spread across his desk, the numbers blurring as his mind raced to find a solution. A knock on the door pulled him from his thoughts. Anderson glanced up to see Agnes standing in the doorway, her expression determined. She had been a constant presence over the past few days, always offering support and ideas, trying to keep his spirits up as he fought to maintain his grip on the company. “Anderson, I’ve been thinking,” Agnes began, stepping into the office and closing the door behind her. “We need to do something bold, something that shows the board and the shareholders that you’re still in control.” Anderson leaned back in his chair, his eyes narrowing slightl

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

Chapter Eighteen Anderson sat in his office, his gaze fixed on the skyline as the city buzzed with life below. Despite the looming threat from the board, he felt a renewed sense of purpose. Agnes’s plan was bold, but it was exactly the kind of move he needed to shake things up and regain control of his company. The meeting with NovaTech was set for later in the week, and Anderson was determined to walk in prepared, armed with the leverage he needed to secure the deal on his terms. Agnes knocked softly on the door before stepping inside, a stack of documents in her hands. She looked confident, her demeanor a mix of professional poise and personal determination. Anderson watched her approach, a flicker of gratitude sparking in his chest. She had been relentless in her support, pushing him to take the necessary risks when he felt cornered. “Everything’s set for the NovaTech meeting,” Agnes said, placing the documents on his desk. “I’ve outli

CHAPTER NINETEEN

Chapter Nineteen Wanda sat on the edge of the bed, her fingers twisting nervously in her lap. The silence of the room felt oppressive, each tick of the clock amplifying the tension that had been building for weeks. She had replayed this conversation in her head a thousand times, rehearsing the words she needed to say, the resolve she needed to muster. But now, as she faced the reality of confronting Michael, her heart pounded with a mix of fear and determination. It had been exactly one month since she had signed the contract marriage with Michael, one month since she had thought she was stepping into a new life that would offer her the stability and security she so desperately needed. But the past weeks had been anything but stable. The man who had once promised her a fresh start had become someone unrecognizable—cold, distant, and increasingly cruel. Wanda took a deep breath, steeling herself as she heard the front door creak open. Mich

CHAPTER TWENTY

Chapter Twenty Anderson sat in the dimly lit corner of his favorite restaurant, tapping his fingers on the table as he waited for Agnes to arrive. The stress of the upcoming meeting with NovaTech weighed heavily on his mind, the potential partnership a high-stakes gamble that could either save his company or compromise his control. He needed everything to go perfectly, and Agnes’s involvement had become more crucial than ever. Agnes walked in, her presence commanding as she scanned the room and spotted Anderson. She smiled, making her way over to the table with a confidence that belied the complexities of her intentions. Anderson stood to greet her, their interaction marked by a familiarity that had developed over weeks of working closely together. “Sorry I’m late,” Agnes said, sliding into the seat across from him. “Traffic was a nightmare.” Anderson shrugged, forcing a smile. “No worries. I’m just glad you’re here. We’ve got a lot to go over.” Agnes nodded, pulling out her tabl
