"I'm ready." She announced without any hesitation or nervousness in her voice and Alex couldn't comprehend even by looking into her eyes if she was afraid or not.But who was he to deny when she had agreed?"I won't stop once I start." He warned her one last time to see if she would back out, but she didn't look like she was going to back out. Instead, she held her head high as she nodded her head positively.She was determinedDetermined to get over with it."Alright then." He shrugged, throwing his towel somewhere and hovering over her figure.As she was already sitting on the bed, it only took them two seconds to lie down with Alex on top.He neared her face and she fisted the bedsheet in her hand, one of his hands travelled down and gently rested on her fisted palm whereas the other rested on her face, caressing her cheek lightly.Was he this gentle with every woman he had sex with? A thought crossed her mind, but soon it blurred in the background as his lips covered hers. She let
Alex stood in front of the mirror and glanced at Mia's sleeping figure through it, for the second time. He had no idea why he didn't ask her to leave his room when she had her own.Another thing, he had no idea what had gotten into him yesterday while having sex with her because he was never this gentle.But one thing he knew, she was too innocent and he could make that out just by looking at her face.But for him, it was only a physical relationship until she got pregnant and that was it. He was sure nothing of this sort was going to happen if the IVF would have worked.He glanced at her sleeping figure again and noticed she was awake and was already wearing her nightie again.Sighing, he fixed his blazer and buttoned it properly before leaving the room quietly. As soon as he left, Mia plopped on her elbows to see if he was really gone and then sighed dropping on the bed.She had been up the moment he had stepped out of the bathroom, but pretended to be asleep to avoid any kind of con
Mark barged inside Ian's mansion followed by Chloe who immediately looked around for Mia. Just then, Mia emerged to the living room and saw Mark marching towards Alex's study. She tried stopping him, but he was in no mood to listen, pouting she looked away feeling dejected, but then someone hugged her from behind and instantly a smile spread on her face realising who it was. "Chloe," Mia gleed happily, and hugged her tightly to which Chloe laughed at her childishness but hugged her back. "How are you? And the kids?" Mia asked as they sat on the couch. Chloe was observing her, and she looked somewhat different to her. There was a different kind of glow on her face and she looked happy. "We all are good. You tell me, why are you glowing so much?" She asked curiously, and a grin settled on Mia's face. "Is it visible?" Mia asked in return with an excited grin on her face. She had unconsciously kept a hand on her stomach, a gesture Chloe had noticed. "Yes," She answered, still scr
The results were positive. She is pregnant. Even though she had it in her instincts, having it officially declared by the doctor had made her ecstatic. As expected, Alex had his cold face on even when the doctor had smiled and congratulated them on the news. It didn't affect her, but the doctor was sure giving them weird looks. As they reached home, Alex sought out some work on his phone and Mia was confused as to why he wasn't leaving for his work. Only when he finished the call, he turned to her, she knew something was up because he only talked to her when there was something important to talk about. "I've appointed a full time caretaker for you, who will be here by tomorrow. She will be with you the whole day, so if you need anything, tell her." He informed her, and she felt a little bit hurt realising she couldn't even show her mood swings to him because he would not want her to unnecessarily bother him. "But what if I want to go out for a walk or some yoga class? You said
She stood there with her stiff back facing him, and she waited for him to say something. When he didn't say anything after a few minutes, she took a step ahead to leave. "Mia," he called, she stopped and frowned in annoyance. Why couldn't he say what he wanted to and then let her go. She slowly turned around and looked at him. "Stay away from Mark." He warned, and a chuckle escaped her lips but she immediately pursed her lips. "You think this is funny?" He asked in a hard tone, and she nodded a no innocently. She just laughed because of his off topic. She was here thanking him for appointing Rachel as her caretaker, and he was telling her to stay away from his friend? What was wrong with him? When she glanced at him, he was still burning holes through his eyes, so she composed herself and looked at him and asked him, "Why are you telling me this, Mr. Ian?" She asked genuinely curious at his demand or warning whatever he called it. Alex looked at her for a few seconds and then
ALEX POVAfter I left her room I went to my room to freshen up and prepare for the party. After freshen up there was still few hours left to the party so I decided to work on my laptop a little bit 30 minutes to 7pm I started dressing up I put on a black tuxedo and a black shoe. When I was dressed finally one of by guard came to inform me that a lady is here looking for me and I asked him to let her in.After wearing my perfume I stepped outside I met this lady on a red short gown barely covering her butt she was even chewing gums that stuff she is doing disgust me after I got down she greeted me.Hello Mr Ian it is good to finally meet you, she said.I nodded my head I didn't even bother to asked of her anything, I just said let's go and she followed me walking out of my house toward the car immediately I got into my car she also got in I asked my driver to drive us down to the venue. When we got there my body guard opened the door for me and went ahead to open the door for her too.
The next day, Alex sat in his study working on an important project when his phone rang. He adjusted his bluetooth, and answered the call as his eyes remained on his laptop. "Yes, George," He said, as his fingers worked on the keyboard. He sure was managing all the work from home, but it wasn't that easy considering he couldn't keep an eye on what was happening at the company. "Sir, I hope you remember that you have to attend Mr. Peter's business party today at 8 pm." George reminded, and Alex stopped typing. "When did you ever inform me about this?" His chilling tone was enough for George to stutter on the other end. "Sir, I informed you about it yesterday night, and you asked me to remind you today." George said, as he prayed to God that he would remember about it and spare him. Alex vaguely remembered about his call and just hummed, making George sigh in relief. "Also, sir, you'll have come with your partner." George's nervous voice came through the phone, and Alex raised hi
Mia's excited mood had been successfully ruined by Alexander, and that is always confirmed. He will be the only one who can turn her mood from sweet to sour in less than a minute. Currently, the four of them were travelling to where Mia was earlier heading to, but with her grumpy mood. Rachel and Mia sat at the back seat. Whereas, Mark sat beside Alex who drove the car. "Are you going to tell me where you want to go or I have to keep driving aimlessly?" Alex's voice broke the silence in the car, but all of them thought that the silence was better. Mia gave him a sharp look before she snapped at him, "Before this, you never asked where I wanted to go." Alex's grip on the steering wheel tightened, as he gave her a cold stare through the mirror and Mia saw it but ignoring it, she looked out of the window. "Mia, where to?" It was Mark this time who had turned around in his seat and asked her softly. Mia looked at him and sighed. "You know where Mark," She simply said, and Mark frow
