31|True to His Word

[Darcy]Fortunately, I thought quickly. I didn't know how the idea popped up, but I was lucky. Sinclair agreed to my terms before it was too late. I got closer to my goal.The man seemed to be a womanizer. He must have slept with his female employees or those he found attractive. Moreover, the club owner kept saying how many women wanted to be in my position.I got so carried away that I forgot about protection. We did it skin-to-skin. I was in danger if Sinclair had a disease or slept with an unclean woman. However, he swore he was clean and just checked his health.Wasn't Sinclair afraid he'd impregnate me? He wasn't the kind of man who liked children. The club owner was unlikely to want to get married, let alone have children. Because without a wife, he could satisfy his biological needs by sleeping with any woman.Could he have found out I used a surrogate to conceive Keane? No way. It was a secret that my family died with. The doctor and all the medical personnel had sworn to gua

32|Poisonous Liquid

The strange woman beside me and I obeyed the doctor's orders. We walked out of the ward, leaving Lydia with the baby. I stood not far from the curtain. My partner could have called me in need.Why did trouble come in waves? I was supposed to practice for a new dance, yet I was in the hospital. Keane drank milk exclusively and never once had a problem.I couldn't believe it was my milk that caused Edith to vomit and have diarrhea. She should have had that on Monday or Tuesday after consuming my milk. How could she get sick on the fifth day?I turned to the woman beside me. “Hi. My name is Darcy.” I extended my hand.The woman shook my hand. “Jessica,” she replied.“You are...,” I said, purposely leaving my sentence hanging.“Edith's nanny,” she continued.I nodded in understanding. “What happened?”Jessica shook her head. “I gave her milk as usual. I don't know why she suddenly threw up and had diarrhea.”Strange. Edith couldn't have had that if she only consumed my breast milk. I woul

33|The Favorite Boss

Felicia met me in the practice room when work hours were over. She asked me to dance once. I complied by moving my body as well as I could. Unfortunately, I made two mistakes.However, I remembered those mistakes well and promised not to repeat them. Felicia danced once with me to improve my dance. She said goodbye, so I rested. I took the opportunity to pump breast milk.Someone knocked on the practice door. I knew who it was. “Hi, Darcy,” Lydia greeted me. She glanced outside the room before closing the door.“What's going on outside?” I asked.She closed the door and walked towards me. “Um, no. I saw Felicia. Is there a problem with the preparations for your performance tomorrow?”“Sinclair changed the order of the dancers. So, I have to perform another dance. She checked to see if I had mastered my dance," I explained.Lydia nodded. “Things are chaotic in the main rehearsal room. They fought over who got to perform first. I never wanted to do the opening,” she confessed.“Because

34|Thinking of Her

[Sinclair]I stared at the report on the desk without blinking. “This is what you call a problem?” I asked.“Yes. The first performance is crucial for the club's anniversary,” Enzo explained. “We couldn't contact the clothing designer at this point.”I closed my eyes, trying to calm myself down. “Appoint another tailor to resize the clothes. The designer can't protest because he broke the contract. They should be available whenever we need their services.”I came as fast as possible from my office after he called me. Since Felicia was in the practice room, I couldn't check on Darcy's condition. I thought the problem he referred to had something to do with her. Damn it.“We can't give those clothes into the hands of another tailor, Sin,” he reminded me.“I'll take responsibility. Hurry up and do it. We've wasted a lot of time on a trivial matter.” I handed him the report. “Is there anything else I need to check?”Enzo accepted the file and sighed. “All the preparations are in order, bu

35|The Traitor

I excused myself from the VVIP guests and welcomed them to enjoy the food and drinks on the serving table. They could ask the waitress in the room for anything. After they shooed me away for interrupting their spectacle, I left.Neil walked towards the back door. I followed him. Enzo strolled beside me, even though I had forbidden him to come along. The guests needed one of us to be among them.However, I understood his concern. The one who came to see me was the most feared man in the city. Even though I was Enzo's superior, he felt responsible for my safety. Meanwhile, I had Neil as my bodyguard.Two security guards opened the door for me. Four men dressed all in black stood before me. They turned to the car behind them. One of them opened the back door, and a short, fat man emerged.“Sin Wyndham,” he greeted me with a mocking smile. “I admit you're a genius, but sending your man to deceive me is crossing the line.”“I didn't send anyone to deceive you, Joaquin.” I stared at him but

36|Evil Relative

[Darcy]The club's situation was significantly different from a regular day. A line of cars was parked at the back of the building, and some unknown people were pacing back and forth, unloading items from the vehicles. Tonight was the highlight of the SW nightclub celebration.After giving Lydia the milk bag, I headed for the practice room. Felicia wouldn't be teaching me but focusing on the other dancers. She would check my dance a few hours before the show started.I was at ease not having to explain or bother hiding the bite marks on my neck. I'd already compressed it with an ice pack and covered it with makeup. However, the sweat would wear off the disguise.“Tonight is a special night, different from a normal performance night. You can't make any mistakes,” Felicia instructed. She entered the backstage room while we were getting ready.“Meryl, you determine the success or failure of our nightclub's anniversary event. Dance well. Make me proud to have chosen you,” she told the wom

37|Breaking News

“Oh.” Taylor glanced at the door. “Is that your boyfriend? Okay. I'll be in the bedroom. Don't worry. You won't know I'm here.”“Tay,” I called. I sighed in annoyance as I watched her continue walking towards the bedroom on the right.What did she want by coming to my place? Didn't she attend the club's birthday event to represent Oscar? Why did she leave the place and follow me instead? That woman was annoying.I turned toward the door. Sinclair wouldn't have rung the bell, but he was the only one who had ever come to my unit. Felicia was at the club. She wouldn't leave until all the dancers had performed. Could it be Wesley?I approached the door and opened it. It was Scott. He handed me my phone, which I left in the car's back seat. After thanking him, I closed the door. I didn't remember taking it out of my bag.“Hm. That's too bad. I was hoping to meet the guy you're with right now,” Taylor said from the bedroom doorway.“You promised I wouldn't know you were here,” I protested.

38|Unfulfilled Wish

“Thank you.” Cullen kissed my cheek after I laid our son in his crib. “I never thought I'd be a father.”“You only have flaws, Cullen. With the advancement of medical technology, what was once impossible has become possible,” I consoled.Cullen smiled. He took my hand and led me out of our son's bedroom. I giggled as he pecked my lips before turning off the lights and closing the door. We walked to the other room, our bedroom.My husband was the only man in the world who was patient with me. He chased after me, who wasn't interested in him at all. All the promises he made, he kept. It made me fall in love with him.The man I wanted at the time was an heir to the biggest hotel company in the country. We broke up because he liked to cheat on me. I met Cullen while accompanying my boyfriend to various events.Cullen knew my lover's bad habits. He told me everything, thinking I didn't know. His persistence melted my heart. Cullen comforted me when that jerk screwed another woman in his ap

39|Uncontrollable Anger

[Sinclair]I leaned back on the chair and closed my eyes. What had just happened was in my plan. One person proved that Joaquin's group wasn't as strong as people claimed. They had a weakness that one person managed to penetrate.Someone knocked on my door and opened it. “What are you doing?” Enzo protested. “Wesley is one of our best people. Why did you fire him?”“He confessed to everything he did,” I answered.“Joaquin is everyone's enemy. You should side with our people, not the enemy, Sin. You'll lose a lot of trust if you fire him,” he continued.“Do you doubt my decision?” I challenged him.Enzo stared at me thoughtfully. He furrowed his brow. “You always carefully think things through, but that doesn't mean you won't make mistakes.”“The time is near. I want to clean up from now on. My son will be home, and I'm sure many will seize the opportunity to hurt me through him,” I explained. “I need to start by cleaning up after my confidant.”“But, Sin. Wesley managed to defeat Joaq

40|The Curious Cousin

I ignored her and walked to the elevator. She was just an employee at my club, not my boss or lover. I had no obligation to answer her questions. The woman followed me. She strode beside me without saying a word.Neil stood between Felicia and me when we were in the elevator. I didn't understand why she followed us but allowed it. I turned left when we arrived at the destination floor. I stopped as Felicia stood before me.“So, the news is true. You and Darcy have a special relationship?” she asked with hurt eyes. “Sin, is that why you hired her at the club?”“Remember your position. You're just obeying my orders.” I walked past her after Neil stood nearby, blocking her from stopping me.“I refuse to train your girlfriend. Choose someone else to teach her,” she threatened.“I'll wait for your resignation letter today,” I said without stopping my steps.I entered Darcy's unit. A woman was drinking near the kitchen counter. She choked when she saw me, but I ignored her. I strolled to the
