S6-Chapter 66

Author: Maria Anita
Fernando’s POV

I spent the whole day worried about Melissa. It was so rare for her to get sick, so unusual for her to miss a day of work to stay in bed, that I thought of the worst possibilities. I bombarded my uncle with questions, since he was Melissa’s doctor, maybe he could tell me what to do, but he kept answering me with evasions and started avoiding me, which was strange.

When Hannah offered to go see Melissa at lunchtime, I was so relieved to be able to count on someone that I gave her the afternoon off, just so she could keep an eye on Melissa in case Catherine needed to leave. I went with her to the restaurant and bought lunch, the things Melissa liked, and sent some chocolates for her too. But the day dragged on and I was anxious to get home.

But I also had a very busy day. Besides the hospital stuff, Rick called me many times to talk about what we were preparing for my marriage proposal to Melissa. And only at the end of the day did I realize I hadn't sent her flowers. I al

    Fernando’s POVI opened my eyes to the morning light streaming through the window. I looked to the side and saw my girlfriend sleeping peacefully, lying on her stomach, hands tucked under her pillow and her hair spread out. Her face was turned in my direction and I could see every tiny detail. Her delicate features, almost like a beautiful doll's, contrasted with her strong personality. The physical fragility she appeared to have was like a disguise for the incredible, strong, determined woman who didn't break easily. It was fascinating!I lost myself in the moment, watching the woman who had always been in my life, who I'd known from the beginning would own my heart, and who I loved more each day. We had already been through so much together that I felt nothing could take her from me - or almost nothing. My confidence was only shaken when I saw her fighting so hard to give up what she wanted just so she wouldn't give up on me, and when I realized there were many men around her who wou

    Fernando’s POVAfter my conversation with Catherine, she called Melissa and confirmed the video call idea, but I wanted more than that; Melissa deserved more. So I decided it was time to include the other girls, and Catherine took charge of gathering them all. They were thrilled to learn that Melissa would participate in the "best maternity" event, and we spent the rest of the afternoon shaping our plan. When we finished, it was time to pick up Melissa from work, but I still had a few minutes to buy the chocolates she loved so much."Melissa, where's Henry? I need him to sign these documents." Mr. Perfect was in Melissa's office. Didn't this man have his own office?"I don't know, Joe Michael, but if you want those documents signed, find him before I do, because when I find him, I'm going to kill him!" Melissa replied, and I could hear in her voice the irritation directed at Henry."Good evening!" I entered, and they both looked at me."There, Joe Michael, here's someone who can tell u

    Fernando’s POVI headed straight to Alexander's company. I needed to talk to Catherine and knew she was waiting for me."About time you got here." She was at the reception desk and came to meet me, pulling me outside. "Come on, let's get some coffee."We sat down at the small café across the street and ordered coffee and pastries. Catherine seemed obsessed with those chocolate chip muffins."Tell me everything, Cat," I asked."First tell me how you are and what you're going to do," she requested, and I knew she was worried about her friend."What am I going to do?" I took a deep breath and smiled. "I'm going to go crazy trying to figure out how to handle all this, but I'll be a very happy crazy man! And I'll do my best to be a good father. I love Melissa, Catherine! I don't exist without her.""But you've always been so afraid of being a father?" Catherine looked at me doubtfully."Actually, I've always been afraid of being a bad father, because a child deserves to be loved and cared f

    Melissa’s POVI parked in front of Eva's house, where Flavian was already waiting for me, watching the place from inside his car. When he saw me pull up, he quickly got out and wrapped me in a bear hug."Partner, you've been missing from the station." He joked, and I knew he was trying to distract me."Oh, partner, that must be because you haven't been working much, right?!" I narrowed my eyes at him, and he let out a short laugh."We have a deal, I investigate what you ask me to and you don't punish me for what the idiots do." He laughed, remembering that we had already sealed a cooperation pact; he gave me what I wanted, as long as it didn't include information about what they did at the boys' meetings."But you owe me many favors, maybe I should collect on some," I reminded him, and he laughed."And I'll keep owing you, but can I ask for something really special?" He looked into my eyes and I huffed, but nodded. "Give us two days? Two days without thinking or asking anything, withou

    Fernando’s POVAfter the jewelry store, I decided to stop by the hospital. Enzo had told me that Melissa had gone out for lunch, and I could bet she'd drop by the hospital just so she wouldn't implicate Hannah as the snitch."Hi, Hannah, anything new?" I asked casually, hoping she would tell me Melissa was in my office."No, nothing," she answered, sounding a bit down."Have you talked to Melissa today? I need to speak with her, but I can't reach her." I needed to know if I had already been ratted out. Hannah narrowed her eyes at me."Just ask already," she said with a bossy air that made me laugh."You already told her I wasn't here, didn't you?" I smiled and she smiled back."I had lunch with her and she's in your uncle's office. If you hurry, you might save your skin," she suggested, and I laughed.I ran toward the elevators and went straight to the office. I would calm her curiosity and also talk to my uncle about her exaggerated PMS symptoms. But when I got to the office reception

    Melissa’s POVI arrived at the restaurant next to the hospital and the girls were already there. I was irritated, very irritated."Wow, Mel, you took forever, what happened?" Catherine asked and I huffed."Henry's slacking off with the other idiots and overloading me with work," I answered irritably."But what did he do?" Sam asked."Your hubby slipped out of the office early this morning and hasn't come back yet, but he sent me a message asking me to review all the client contracts in the office because one of them is questioning the agreed terms and he doesn't want that client to contaminate the others," I replied."I bet it's that unbearable telecom guy, that man is impossible," Sam lamented and I agreed."I think so too, but your husband didn't want to tell me so I wouldn't have a biased view of the contracts. If these contracts were still printed, my office would look like a filing cabinet drawer," I huffed."Funny, that reminded me of that time he sent you to the archive room to
