Chad’s expression was serious as he revealed the plan. “Look, keep Therese on the side and marry the girl your parents choose for a year. When their businesses pick up, you can divorce her and marry your true love.”

The idea sounded smooth, but Wade knew the complications. Therese did not seem like a woman who would stay by his side after learning he was married to another, and why would he hurt another woman to make one happy?

“If I marry the girl my parents choose and then divorce her, my conscience would judge me. Chad, a woman, needs to be respected and loved. I can’t play with her feelings and then dump her. No, that’s not me,” he bluntly refused, and Chad gave up.

“Fine, then marry this broke girl and lose everything. Don’t say that I didn’t warn you.”

Wade decided to turn the tables of the discussion. “I see how you look at Oriana. You like her.”

Chad didn’t refuse. “You are right about that, but I’m not ready to go broke for her, so whatever I feel must be buried deep inside,”

    “Two years after my adoption, my mother got pregnant and gave birth to a bouncy baby boy. We named him Silvester, and even with his presence, my parents treated me well, and I loved him so much. But when he was six months old,” Wade paused as Delanie saw his uncontrollable tears. Instantly, she walked to him and embraced him comfortingly. “If it’s too much to say, then don’t.” She faintly guessed that if Wade’s parents had a biological child who wasn’t in the picture anymore, then it meant that he was gone. Wade managed to pull himself together and continued to speak nonetheless, but even in Delanie’s comforting arms, he no longer felt comforted. “We were gang attacked, and I was in my room at the time. When I was dragged out, I was blindfolded, but I heard the gangsters ask my parents, “We must take one of them.”“They pleaded, tried to defend themselves and me, but we were outnumbered. I felt the cold mouth of the pistol on my head and the cries of my brother as they forced my p

    Ashley was like a storm sent to wash away the excitement of their date. After she left, every dish felt sour, and Wade was no longer himself.Delanie feared, for once, that he was considering marrying the other woman because, after all, he still never defined their relationship.Actions speak louder than words, and he mentioned wanting to marry her when things settle. It didn’t seem like things were going to settle anytime soon, so she had every right to be concerned.“Are you going to tell me what’s going on now?”Wade swallowed tightly and began to pour out everything to her. “My adoptive parents have always wanted me to marry into a rich family to clean up their mess.” It was just as the report Roger gave her before she left read, and she had waited for him to open up to her about it. Now that he did, she was filled with unease. “I see. So that’s why you keep our relationship ‘safe’.”She thought he was being a gentleman when he never went beyond kissing, but as it stands, he was

    Wade pulled away, feeling apologetic. “I didn’t mean to…”Delanie’s lips pressed against his again, slightly annoyed by his ruining the magic moment and making him swallow his apology. She had wanted to do this since last night, and it tasted better than she thought.A month passed, and things were going well. Roger didn’t hear much about Delanie, and the spies he kept around her informed him that she was safe.Delanie couldn’t attend any family gatherings, including Karen’s birthday party, though Oriana did.However, she did not bring Chad along. Delanie’s relationship with Wade was beginning to make headlines among the mafia.There were photos of Wade and Delanie kissing publicly, but Oriana had assured Roger that Delanie said Wade hadn’t touched her inappropriately and she was still a virgin.Due to her relationship with Chad, Roger and Karen had maintained a distance from her after the party, as her closeness might blow up Delanie’s disguise.Delanie was now abreast of the finance

    Last night, when Wade brought Delanie home, he was surprised to find Chad still there. After dropping off Delanie, he left with Chad.“What are you up to? If you don’t want Oriana, don’t give her false hopes. I don’t want your mistakes to ruin my plans for Therese.”“What exactly do you have planned for her?” Chad questioned, and Wade didn’t hold back.“You already know. Once I find a solution to my parents’ problem, I intend to marry her. But for now, I can't pursue Delanie as my wife without their approval, so I have to proceed cautiously.”Chad couldn’t understand Wade’s fixation on Delanie and asked, “Hey, have you been intimate with her?” Seeing Wade's irritation, he clarified, “I mean, don’t commit without testing the waters first.”That was Wade's usual approach, but he had never considered it with Delanie. “Chad, you're out of your mind. Therese is not some object to be tested. She's a woman deserving of my respect.”They had a lengthy conversation last night, and Wade shared

    “Answer it," Roger insisted, and she reluctantly picked up the phone. "Hey, how are you?"Wade's excited voice cut through. "Missing you, and wondering if we could have lunch together." Her absence constantly left a strange emptiness he struggled to contain. She wasn't the first woman he had been with, but she was different, and even her energy was on another level. Therese was what he would term as holding tight and yet, not too tight to scare her away. It was something he had never done before in his relationships with other women."I'd love to, but I just got fired from my job, so I need to send applications around, sorry."There was silence for a moment before he suddenly exclaimed in a panicked voice, "I knew it. It must be that Roger." Delanie's eyes widened as she remembered what Roger had said, connecting it with Wade's words."How do you know? My boss said the order came from the top.""I know he hates me, but I don't see why he's taking it out on you," Wade complained help

    Karen stared at the images of Wade with different girls. Then the rumors about his parents wanting him to marry into one of the richest families to save their asses.Most of the dirt was on Wade’s parents, and the only one on Wade was concerning the women he had dated in the past.The reasons for the breakups were unknown, and to Roger, this was a red flag because of his upbringing, but Karen was more open-minded.“What I have noticed from everything is that his last fling was around six months ago. There hasn’t been a woman in his life since then.” Roger shook his head, feeling dismayed. “Can’t you see that Delanie is just going to be one of them? Besides, the guy needs money to save his parents, and Delanie is the right target, isn’t it? She’s worth five hundred billion as of now, a perfect candidate,” he said sarcastically, his appetite ruined. The perfect night he planned was once again completely destroyed, but Karen shook her head. “Wade doesn’t even know Delanie’s worth, so h
