Conan’s POVThe house was incredibly silent and it kind of felt odd because the chatters from the maids would have made the house sound bubbly but right now, things just felt too odd. As soon as I step into the house, all the memories from the day back came crashing into my head and as much as it got me annoyed, it was safe to say that my anger had disappeared slowly. But it was mainly for Liana and not the others.Swiveling my gaze around the whole house, a maid came in my direction with her head lowered. “You are welcome” She greeted. “Thank you. Why is the whole house so quiet?” I asked, criticizing the living room my eyes almost bulged out of its socket when I saw the frame that was boldly hung in the living room. I rubbed my eyes with my hands and my eyes twitched multiple times!It was a frame of Kayla and somehow, she managed to photoshop my face inside the picture. My mouth was agape and I was at a loss for words to say because where did she get the audacity to even do some
Conan POVMy eyes twitched continuously, trying to grasp what in the world was happening right now. I didn’t need anyone to tell me that Kayla’s behavior was definitely out of control because she was going to get crazy now and she needed to be locked in a mental institute. “I think that you mean that suit is meant for Connor because certainly, he is the father of your child and you should be getting married to him! Look, I have better things to do other than this bullshit. If you dare try to piss me further, then you would see me do what I have been meaning to do to you” I warned her sternly. Her face contorted in a frown as she tightened her grip around the wedding dresses that she clutched tightly to.“What do you mean by what you have been trying to do”I chortled before stepping forward. Bending slightly, my lips pressed on her lips gently as I whispered in my ear. “You do know that I wouldn’t hesitate to kill you, right?”Breathing heavily, her eyes reddened as she bit gently o
Liana's P.O.VI kept trying to look over the many reporters’ shoulders who kept flashing cameras at God knows who. But when I heard the question that was asked by the reporter concerning marriage, then that was when I realized that the reason why they were here was because of Kayla and Conan.But wait for a moment, Conan was married to me so what the hell did I just hear the reporter say about a wedding ceremony that would be coming up in the next two weeks?All of a sudden, my heart began thudding in my chest because from what I knew, Conan loathed Kayla with passion and suddenly hearing that he was getting married to Kayla sounded absurd since she was the main reason why he didn't come home for days. It felt as if every part of me suddenly crumbled into pieces because of the heart-wrenching news that kept ringing in my ear. "Did Conan discover anything about me and is that why he is breaching the contract between us? If he discovered something about me, then what could that be?" I
Liana's POVI blinked my eyes once the twice as I slowly retracted my step backward. It wasn't as if this would be the first time that I would be before the media but it has been so long and the whole attention that was focused on me made me feel somehow.For a moment, it felt like I was the only one in my world, and everything and everyone swirled around me. The cameras that kept flashing made me screw my eyes shut and I suddenly developed a sharp pain in my head."You are Mr. Conan's wife?""Aren't you the first daughter of Mr. Ethan? Isn't Matilda your sister?""She is the one! Why was your marriage hidden from the public?" A lot of questions almost at the same time and it kind of caused a different kind of pain in my ears as I staggered backward, almost losing balance. I didn't know what was happening at the moment for all I knew, I was used to the attention from the very beginning but now, it felt like the ground could just give up its content and take me in instead.Slowly, I
Liana’s POVAfter the whole media thing, Conan decided to distance himself from Kayla. Since that day, there hasn’t been any case of any serious issues of any sort and it was starting to seem like things were getting back to normal plus Kayla had been extremely calm these days. Although she didn’t relate with me, she has been in her lane and I think that was because of the pregnancy and maybe it was a hormonal change. She stopped getting irritated by a lot of things and most especially, she stopped treating Connor badly.Connor and Kayla were settling their differences slowly and although Conan still kept a grudge against him, Connor made sure that he was there for Kayla. He bought all the things that the baby needed and his eyes would always lit up brightly whenever he talked about the child.Meanwhile, I still hadn’t asked Connor about his past. Many times, I would try to ask Conan about his past but I would never find the courage to ask him about anything since I had shunned him s
Conan's POV"A pregnant woman who is not a woman but a teenager," I said to Arthur who nodded in affirmation.My eyebrows tugged together in confusion while trying to make sense of his words. "What are you trying to say? Do you seriously mean that Matilda has been catering for this girl and if she is, then why are you telling me?""Alpha Connor, you and I both know the type of desperate person that Matilda is. We know that she is also selfish and she wouldn't do anything that wouldn't benefit her""Matilda has been heavily invested concerning this girl and to worsen it, everything that I have been feeding her, she has shown no single effect to it. She looks perfectly well and okay," Arthur added.I squinted my eyes at him slightly. "She has shown no single effect? Do you think that she knows?"Arthur shook his head negatively. "She doesn't, I did everything that you have instructed me in a way that she would never find out"I took my gaze off him. "What if she knows?""She doesn't,
Liana's POVFor all I knew, Matilda couldn't stand the sight of pregnant women. She claimed that they irked her to her gut so hearing how she is so invested in this teenage girl was so suspicious.Maybe there's nothing suspicious and maybe I am the one just making a mountain out of a moth hill. People change and Matilda could have changed her views about people because if I could remember clearly when we were young, Matilda was always scared of old people but as she got older, she began to accommodate them.I paced back and forth in my room as different thoughts clouded my mind. Bruce Lawrence said that he would send the details of the girl and now he was taking too long. I was running out of patience because what if that girl was in danger? Or could it be that Matilda saved her when she went missing?What if she doesn't even know that girl is a teenager? But, she knows! The last time that I met with Bruce Lawrence, he mentioned that she was feeding her some type of drugs that made he
Conan I pressed the phone on my ear, listening to my mum tendering an apology for the umpteenth time. “My son, I know that what I did was so wrong of me and I should have never done that to my blood. I should have never done that to anyone. I can understand your anger towards me and I accept it all”“But please, it is time for you to consider your innocent brother who was caught up in all of this. He wanted to let you know at first and I was the one who stopped him. I have realized my mistakes and please forgive me, I am deeply sorry for making you feel like that”I heaved a sigh, running my hands through my hair. “Mom, I still believe that your intentions are not pure and the reason why you are even apologizing is because of the way that I have treated Connor”“I can say it boldly that you do not regret a single thing and if given the chance, you would still do it again! I just got home and I need to rest and don't have the time to listen to any of this, thankfully, your daughter-i
