Chapter: CHAPTER 198 EPILOGUE A few months later…Bailey's POV I sighed as I finally laid Arlo to sleep after all the crying. I looked at his peaceful face and couldn't help but notice how much he looked like William.After a lot of horrible suggestions from William and Shayna. We finally agreed to name him Arlo after William's grandfather, it was either that or John Cena. And I was not gonna name my son after William's favorite wrestler or after Shayna's favorite rapper.I quietly left the room in search of William. It had been a very long day and I hadn't seen much of him. Matthew had thrown us a huge party to celebrate the renewal of our marriage vows and I was tired from all the rush and excitement.I opened the door to our room to find him asleep, at least that's what I thought. I went into the bathroom to take a shower and came back to lay beside him. It wasn't even up to 5 minutes when I heard Arlo crying through the baby monitor. I groaned in utter frustration and

Chapter: Chapter 197A few months later…Bailey's POV “Thank you for coming with me,” I said as I adjusted my seatbelt. “You don't need to thank me, according to this book, it's my duty.” He said, pointing to the pregnancy help book on his lap, William has been reading a lot of these pregnancy help books over the weeks and I personally think the author sucks. Just last week, he kept trying to convince me to go for something called a vagina steam, and don't get me started on the time he practically coerced me into making a mayonnaise face mask. How does that help the baby? William pushing a stray strand of hair to my ear brought me out of my thoughts. He shifted it back a little so that it was not too tight on my belly. He was always so cautious and passionate when it came to my belly and he had no idea how happy and secure that made me feel. “Thank you. I'm tired already, I can't wait for him to come out.” I grumbled, touching my belly. He chuckled. “I gotta admit, pregnancy suits you.” He teased me

Chapter: Chapter 196Bailey's POVThe gates of the mansion opened up as I pressed the entry code, as I got to the big doors I saw Agatha “Oh, child.” Agatha said, running to me when she spotted me. Worry was written all over her face. I was surprised to see her seeing as William wasn't sure she would come back after he jailed Gianna. “Agatha.” I smiled at her and entered the living room. She glanced at my stomach and I noticed her eyes got watery. “Oh, Bailey.”“It's been so long aunt, how have you been?” I asked her and she hugged me. I didn't resist. I hugged her back. She must be going through quite a rough time herself, I thought.“Erm.. I'm so sorry about Gianna.” There was a moment of silence and then she spoke.“You don't have to apologize for anything, child. She made her own choices and she has to own up to the outcome, hm?” She said, holding my chin, and smiling. I forced a smile too.“I'm so glad you're back. Should I make you something? You must be so tired.”“Noo, I am not um… I won't be lo

Chapter: Chapter 195Matthew's POV“It all started when I fell sick, some months after William turned 9. I fell into a coma during my sleep and woke up with a stroke.”I recounted and Bailey gasped in shock.“Ohh my God! I am so sorry, that must have been horrible” she replied, tears welling up in her eyes.“It was and there is no need to feel sorry for me. It happened years ago,” I replied and she nodded. I know I was a bit harsh with my words but I absolutely despised it when people felt pitied for me. I continued talking, and Bailey inched closer.“My life was shambles. Vannessa wasn't working then and I was the main provider for my family. It was also the worst timing because prior to that horrible day, I remember making plans for us to take a trip.. I wanted to make an extra effort to bond with them and have a good time, as Vanessa always complained that I spent too much time working and was almost never at home.” I took a deep breath before speaking up again.“It wasn't entirely my fault I was alway

Chapter: Chapter 1943 MONTHS LATER…Bailey's POV“Yes Shayna, I'm just getting home. I'm about to climb the stairs.” I said, balancing the grocery bag in my other hand.“Take the elevator. Why are you using the stairs, are you trying to kill my baby?” she squealed.“Your baby?” I asked.“You know what I mean! But just take the elevator Bails,” “If you must know, I got to the elevator and saw it was under repairs. According to Richard, it broke down in the morning. Besides, using the stairs would mean exercising, it keeps the baby active.”“Okay. How was the appointment? What did the gyne say?”“Nothing negative, Ultrasound is done, baby's fine. He said we'll be able to determine the baby's sex by next week.” I said and she squeaked happily.“Okay cool but don't wait up for me today, I'll be home late. I'm going out with Scott today.” “You guys have been doing a lot of that lately, but you claim it's nothing serious.” I mocked. “Yes, because it's nothing serious. Get your mind out of the gutters, Baile

Chapter: Chapter 193Bailey's POV“What.. What's this, William? Divorce papers? W..why?” I asked, my voice trembling and breaking as I stared at William who types away on his phone. “Don't ask me why. Just sign the damn papers.” He replied, his eyes still fixed on his phone. He didn't bother to meet my eyes. “But this..this means..”“I know exactly what this means, Bailey. I breached the contract, so I'm gonna pay you. Henry would handle that aspect. Now, please, sign the goddamn papers.” He said, finally putting the stupid phone away. I don't know if it was the pregnancy hormones kicking in, but I hate that stupid phone.“I wasn't talking about the money, I-”“Bailey I really don't have time to waste. Sign these.” My leg started growing weak. I sniffed. I had been trying very hard to stop myself from crying but my voice was giving me off. I had to sniff to push the emotions in. “B.. But what about your grandfather's will? Your inheritance? How are you going to get..”I said, my voice breaking. “I don

The Untypical Marriage
“If you think that you have been living in hell all your life, let me break that illusion for you,” Adrian said. He spoke slowly, his voice full of menace.
“This place–this is true hell, right here, where I am. His statement, “In this place, death is not an escape, no matter how much you may yearn for it,” was enough to make the audience shudder, but all that tiny figure did was raise her lifeless, dull eyes.
“Then help me, so I can remain here.” She replied, her voice barely above a whisper.

Chapter: Chapter 7 1ADRIANS POV.An arm shoved me aside, and I watched as the bullet hit Romano in the chest.“Fuck!”I quickly reached for the gun in my holster and fired at the man who had shot him.The shooter ran sprinting for a black van that screeched to a halt near us.“Cut them off!” I shouted, still firing. I landed a shot on the bastard just as Victor bolted after the van, which sped off recklessly to get out of the parking lot.Gunshots echoed in the air. I aimed low and shot at the tires. The van jolted, one tire blown, but the driver kept going. Smoke and shredded rubber followed them just outside the gates.They were gone.My men and VPA security stormed into the parking area, but it was too late.“Fuck!” I yelled, running a hand through my hair as I turned back to Romano. He was unconscious, the bullet hitting somewhere vital. I dropped to my knees, and put two fingers against his neck. Slow staggared breaths.He was alive but barely.His brown shirt was stained red, blood staining around

Trust me, you won’t like what you find.”“But you know almost everything about me,” I shot back, not backing down.…He doesn’t know you slept with his right-hand man, that’s what….“That’s because you wear your emotions on your face like a fucking bullet holster.

You just had to ask.I knew Adrian was being a jerk just to shut me out, but if he thought I was going to back down just because of a few insults, he was in for a surprise.“I know you’re just trying to push me away, Adrian, and it’s not going to work.

Chapter: Chapter 68KIRA’S POVAs we reached the counter, two men in suits, whom I hadn’t even noticed since we entered the supermarket—walked up to us. They exchanged a few words in Italian with Adrian, who then handed them the cart. Without a word, they wheeled it away.He turned to me, grabbed my hand, and led me out of the supermarket.“We could have paid for it ourselves,” I said the moment we got into the car.“I did,” he replied without looking at me.“You know that’s not what I meant.”“It doesn’t matter. It’s paid for and will get delivered to the hotel. So, where to, wife?” He glanced at his watch. “I have about three hours to spare. Something important needs to be taken care of.” He said not looking at me.“Does that something important have anything to do with the orphan spy?” I asked, turning sideways to face him.He glanced at me, watching me for a moment, a smirk tugging at his lips. “Wouldn’t you like to know?”I nodded, like a child. “Yes. Yes, I would,” I said, and his face lit up, and

Chapter: Chapter 67KIRA’S POVMy breath hitched as I tapped my fingers inaudibly and nervously against the sleek kitchen island.“What if my forgetfulness had cost him something?”“Or what if you’re just being dramatic, and he already caught the so-called orphan spy ages ago?” A voice in my head chimed in.‘Honestly, how are we even sure that wasn’t just the delirious rambling of a dying Chinese man? Where was the man, anyway? Was he dead? I mean, with all that blood, I doubt he survived… if that was even possible. But knowing Adrian’s men and their insane tolerance for pain, he was probably fine and I was probably just worrying over nothing.’Adrian’s men? Was he one of Adrian’s men? He sounded Chinese… or was it Japanese? I had also never seen him around the mansion before. But he referred to Adrian as Don, so he had to be one of his men. Which meant Adrian probably
