LUCAS

The corner of my lips curled up into a smile as I stared down at Katerina. She was sleeping peacefully as though there was nothing to worry about despite the workload on our shoulders.

She deserved the rest. She tried to fight to stay awake but she couldn't, succumbing to it. Even though her eyes were closed, I could see the exhaustion on her face.

It has been a busy week for both of us, especially Katerina. She didn't have time to get enough rest because of the merging of the companies. We worked on the plan to convince the investors and board members of Madonna company.

I reached for her face, brushing the brown hair strands away then tucked it behind her ear. I pulled her closer, carefully covering her with the jacket. She snuggled close, perhaps following the source of heat that came from my body out of human nature.

I was quite sure if Katerina was awake, she wouldn't dare to do it. I let her snuggle to my sides and my grip around her body tightened. I wanted her to know th

    KATERINA Arabella slipped from my arms and ran to Lucas, giggling and excited to see him again. He crouched to her level, opened his arms wide for Bella and she jumped into them. Lucas wrapped his hands around herso tightly, planting a kiss on her hair. He held her so tightly and protective as though he didn't want to ever let go.My lips curved into a smile as I watched the scene unfold before me. Even though Bella had no idea she was hugging her Dad, I could see the excitement and the undeniable pull between the two.A sight to behold.When Lucas and I were married for four years without a child, I always hoped that one day, we would have one but the heavens blessed us with three.I had this image of Lucas holding our baby girl in his arms, staring adorably at her, playing with her in the flower garden as I watched from the balcony with a big smile on my face. Combining her hair and braiding it messily. Playing around with my makeup kit as he tried to paint her lips and face.I fe

    KATERINA THREE DAYS LATER “Please don't give me that look nanny.” I complained, finding it hard to stare at her sad face. Lucas, who was standing by my side in the living room holding a suitcase, chuckled when he heard my words.“What look?” She asked with creased eyebrows, pretending she didn't know what I was talking about.“Like you don't want me to go.” A sad smile tugged on my lips. As much as I wanted to stay with nanny one more day, I had no choice. We needed to go to Elysium city today to prepare because the merging will happen tomorrow.“You don't need to worry about me Katerina. I’ll be perfectly fine.” She said dismissively, trying to put on a smile but I could see through her eyes. The sadness. The loneliness. All of it.Heaving a deep sigh, I walked to nanny and wrapped my hands around her so tightly. She smelled fresh, herbal and flowery because of her hair shampoo.“Take good care of yourself okay? I have stocked the fridge. I made sure you have enough herbs for the

    Chapter 120KATERINA It was silent inside the office, just a comfortable silence that we both enjoyed. However, it was short-lived when a soft knock cut through the air.I creased my eyebrows, wondering who it might be since I wasn't expecting anyone. I turned my gaze to Lucas and he had the same look on his face. Whoever the person was, I was pretty sure it wasn't Monalisa because that wasn't her style. I wasn't in the mood to get into another unnecessary conversation.I asked the security guards to never allow get through the gate if she ever shows up again. “I’ll get the door,” Lucas said, stood up and headed to the door and opened it. I arched my eyebrow when I saw who was standing at the door looking all nervous.“How can we help you?” Lucas asked the lady, “I’m requesting to talk to Mrs Mackenzie. I promise I won't take a lot of her time.” She pleaded as though her life depended on it. I couldn't see her face since Lucas was blocking by his broad shoulders.Lucas turned to loo

    KATERINA I tilted my head to the side, pretending to be deep in thoughts. Slowly, the corner of my lips curved into a big smile.“You can keep the papers since they're of no use to me.” I shrugged without a care in the world.She clenched her hands into tight fists. My words slapping harder than I had envisioned as they sank through her thick skull which thought the whole revolved around her and she deserved everything.I used to share everything. However, this time was different. It was my turn to be mean because being generous didn't earn me anything. Not a single thing.Instead, I lost everything that I held dear to my heart.“You're right. However, I would like to correct because I think you got it all wrong. My Dad left everything under my name. If he wanted you to be part of it, he would have included you. Perhaps he figured out that you’re not worth it.” I laughed, enjoying the conversation because it was getting way too interesting.Perhaps I was the only one enjoying it beca

    KATERINA The rest of the drive was silent, and now here we’re. I stared at the tall building ahead of us. The place hadn't charged that much since the last time I visited.Memories of my last visit to the place flashed in my mind, making my heart twist painfully in my chest. I recalled my frail frame, tears pouring down my cheeks as Stephanie watched me from her office, holding a glass of wine as she sipped on it leisurely.I hope Stephanie was enjoying her new life in jail as much as I was enjoying my freedom…The door to my side clicked open and Lucas offered me his hand. I thanked him for being kind and we headed to the tall building, my shoulders high, my face proud to be back.The employees were busy going about their business with no clue they almost lost their livelihoods. The woman who declined to testify in my case because she had been bought by Stephanie for a cheap price to remain silent tensed when our eyes locked as though she had seen a ghost.“Attention!” I said, my vo
