Chapter 91

Joyce's POVTime seemed to fly by, and before we knew it, it was closing already."Pick Rafael up and meet me in the parking lot. I'll be waiting for you" Adrian ordered before leaving the office. He wanted to remain discreet, and so did I.The incident from my first day, the one that got the former secretary fired was still fresh in my memory. There was no way I was going to draw any unwanted attention to myself.I gathered my thoughts and took deep breaths to calm my nerves. I packed my bags and walked out of the office, locking the door behind me.Rafael was ready to leave by the time I got to the daycare center. I carried him and picked up his bag when I felt a little tug on my shirt."What is it, darling?" I inquired, confused by the frown on his face."Where's daddy?" he asked with a cute pout."He's waiting for us outside," I replied, smiling wryly.A part of me wasn't happy with the way Rafael was getting so close to his dad, but it didn't matter, as long as he was happy."Does

Chapter 92

Adrian's POVI was trying hard not to look at Joyce. Just inhaling the lingering scent of her perfume triggered emotions and made me have thoughts I never had before.I must admit, she was breathtakingly beautiful. ¡Cielos! She was undeniably stunning! I took a quick look at my son. Just take a look at how our perfect and exceptional genes birthed such a beautiful child with special attributes.When I spoke coldly to her, I couldn't help but cuss at myself. Maybe it was because she apologized for Rafael's actions, which I honestly was not bothered by. I felt bad, but I didn't know the right words to say.Arriving at the mall, I had the idea of showing off, but the shrill voice of that stranger pissed me off.I intended to show off and impress Joyce, Rafael, and even the workers at the mall when we got there however the remarks made by this uncouth lady annoyed me greatly."Who gave you the order to close the mall?" a female voice yelled."Let's go," I said to Joyce, leading the way.A

Chapter 93

Joyce's POVLigia had always known how to bring out the worst in people. Her remarks had pierced me deeply in the heart, and I had no intention of forgiving her. My pained heart was cold and unyielding. I glanced at Rafael, then at Adrian, blushing hard.She had actually called Adrian my man. It sounded pleasing to the ears, but it was just wishful thinking on my part. I wasn't even close to his type. Just because I had a child for him didn't make us a couple."What would you like to do, Joyce?" Adrian whispered into my ears."Let the police take her, so she learns her lesson," I declared with an unwavering gaze.I was done letting people trample upon me. Ligia could lose her fiancé, but I didn't give a rat's behind. Nobody did when Gabriel cheated on me with my sister."Hmph... Good choice," Adrian muttered, turning to the manager. "Have you called them?""Yes, boss. They should be here any minute now," the manager replied. He had barely settled when the blaring wail of sirens envelo

Chapter 94

Javier's POV"Keep following them," Elizabeth ordered the driver, who obeyed and trailed after the Maybach from a safe and undetectable distance. We kept going at a slow pace until the Maybach halted, and a woman holding a blond-haired child stepped down from the car."Joyce Sanchez," Elizabeth muttered, her voice barely above a whisper as she peeked slightly through the now barely open window. "So, this is where she lives?""Yes, ma'am. She lives here with her son," the man driving replied.He was the investigator Elizabeth had hired to track Adrian's movement. He had also gathered information regarding Adrian's personal assistant for us. I must say, I was surprised. Adrian's manner of interaction with her ever since they got to the mall, had my suspicious radar flying higher than a kite.What stunned me the most was the child with them. Were those two a couple? Was that boy Adrian's son?The probability of receiving positive answers was quite high. Everyone knew how mysterious that m

Chapter 95

Joyce's POV"Did he really stare at me like that or was it just my imagination?" I asked myself as I made dinner in the kitchen. The scene of Adrian pulling me into his embrace kept replaying in my head. I just couldn't get it off my mind no matter how hard I tried.First, he called me his woman; now, he was unabashedly flirting with me. I guess I would have to talk things out with him the next day to avoid misunderstanding.But,why was my heart beating so wildly?....A knock on the door interrupted my thoughts."Who could it be?" I muttered to myself. I walked out of the kitchen, straight to the living room and glanced at the wall clock- it was 9pm already. "For safety and security, I had a strict rule of keeping my door locked from this time until morning. Tonight was no different so I decided to ignore it.I turned to head to Rafael's room,when another knock caused me to halt. It was louder this time and I couldn't ignore it anymore. Maybe it was Adrian... Wait, why was I even think

Chapter 96

Adrian's POVI really didn't know what came over me the moment I pulled Joyce into my arms. I guessed I was enchanted by her beauty, but the thing was she wasn't the only beautiful woman I had set my eyes on since I began my journey in the business world. Or was it because she was the mother of my child?"Boss, there's a car on our trail" James disclosed, pulling me abruptly from my thoughts."Are you sure?" I asked, my brows raised in doubt."Yes, boss" he nodded affirmatively.I bent forward and looked through the rearview mirror for confirmation. A black SUV was right behind us, moving at the same pace, which dispelled my doubts."Fine then. Just keep going. Let's see how far they intend to trail us," I ordered, settling back in my seat to make myself more comfortable."Whoever that person was, if he or she were to trail me right to my penthouse building, the outcome would be unpredictable and devastating for them. I couldn't advise my enemies to back down, I could only watch them f

Chapter 97

Natalia's POVThe morning sickness and stomach upset had gotten worse, and I couldn't stand it any longer. I decided to visit the hospital, just as Gabriel suggested.I woke up as early as 6 am and freshened up. Gabriel was still in bed, but I decided to leave without his knowledge. I wore comfy clothes and snuck out of the room with my Gucci purse.I tiptoed down the stairs, straight to the exit when a voice made my heart jump into my mouth."Madame, are you going somewhere this early morning?" came a female voice, and I turned to see a maid holding a mop stick with a bucket in her hands.‘She must be the maid on duty,’ I said to myself, forcing a smile. "I just need to go for a morning exercise.""Dressed like this?" She questioned, eyeing my dress and purse, which got me furious."Mind your business, will you?" I snapped. "Don't you dare spill a word to anybody. You didn't see me. If you mention a word to your master, I'll make this mansion a living hell for you, coupled with a ded

Chapter 98

Joyce's POVAs I sat alone on my bed the next morning, my mind wandered back to last night's moment that left me super flustered. I still could not believe he had kissed me, or understand how it had happened.What even made it more confusing was the fact that when he tried to pull away, I pressed into him - seeking, demanding more. All I could do was savor the details deeply etched in my memories.What if he kissed me again? Just what if....Suddenly, my fluttering heart turned cold, and the thoughts vanished. It was then I realized the gravity of the situation. That moment was never supposed to have happened. What pained me the most was how I had insisted on going along with it.Adrian and I were far apart in the social world where wealth and power ruled. Who knows? He might not have liked it. I couldn't even imagine how our encounter this morning would be. At first, I thought of taking a leave on short notice, but Adrian was just going to assume I was avoiding him.With a deep sigh

Chapter 99

Natalia's POV"Hello, Natalia," an alluring deep baritone voice called, smooth and silky. I quickly stood up at the sight of the young man dressed in a crisp white coat and glasses. His gaze, sharp and cold, lingered on me just long enough to make it clear how much he despised my presence.I forced out a smile. "Hello, Manuel. It's been a while. How have you been?"Manuel snickered. "I don't think that's any of your business, but to answer your question, I've been doing great ever since I cut you out of my life.""That's rude," I scoffed. "It's not going to take a pound of flesh if you could just respond politely for the sake of old times.""I can't recall those old times you talk about" Manuel retorted. "What are you doing here?"I took a deep breath, deliberating on my choice of words."I'm speaking to you right now as a patient," I declared after some thought.Manuel eyed me suspiciously. "Come with me to the office."I guess that worked. He dug out a bunch of keys from his pocket a

Chapter 100

Adrian's POV "What happened last night wasn't a mistake," I blurted out, stunning myself. I had gotten out of bed this morning with dark circles beneath my eyes because I couldn't sleep. Details of the passionate moment we shared kept popping up in my head, breaking the walls I had built around my heart. Every time I closed my eyes, I could still feel her soft touch, the warmth of her breath on my face, the intensity of her big round amber eyes, the soft flutter of her eyelids. Even now, standing this close to her sent unthinkable thoughts rushing through my mind. It was as if she had branded herself into my memory, making it impossible to shake her from my thoughts. I knew I should let it go, yet the desire to relive that moment lingered, filling me with a mix of longing and frustration. I realized I wasn't just drawn to her because of our son, but because I had been attracted to her from day one, including that night at the club. I wanted her so badly that I didn't know what cam
