ARIANA'S POV

I was absorbed in my thoughts as I drove into Damian's apartment complex. Elena's words continued to replay in my head, and I couldn't seem to push them away.

She wanted a father figure to be there for her performance. She wouldn't even mind if it were nothing more than an act, even if it lasted only for a single day, as long as she could experience having both parents beside her for that moment. My chest tightened with pain, and I became so distracted that I almost drove off t

    ARIANA'S POV"Mom!"I set the glass of water in my hand on the counter and turned toward the sound of my daughter's voice.Elena was already dressed in her school uniform and prepared to leave for school, whereas I had only just gotten out of bed. I overslept once again."Darling, I..." I stopped, feeling embarrassed.I was supposed to take her to school today, but do you know what happened? I'd ended up waking up late instead. Last night was the grand opening of my new restaurant branch, and I hadn't returned home until around 4 a.m. Even so, that wasn't supposed to be an excuse for oversleeping, was it?"I'm really sorry. Give me a little time, and I'll be ready.""I'm going with Daddy today, Mommy. My daughter answered with a simple smile.My hand, which had been running gently through her silky hair, came to a halt when another voice cut into our conversation."I'll take her today," my husband announced as he walked over, his car keys in hand.I hadn't even noticed that I'd been h

    DAMIAN'S POVOne Months Later"You didn't have to come here and torture yourself, you know..." Tristan's voice trailed off, but I barely paid attention to his words."Quiet, Tristan," I murmured, my eyes fixed on the scene unfolding at the venue on the hill.We were sitting in the car, parked at a discreet distance, and the tinted windows ensured that no one could see us. But I could see everything happening from here.Ariana and Nathan tied the knot this morning, and now they were celebrating with a small party. I don't shown up. I decided not to.I knew Ariana wouldn't be happy to see me, so I chose to stay away and avoid interfering with one of the happiest days of her life.Up there, Ariana fed Nathan a piece of cake. I could also see my mom and Annabelle recording them while smiling brightly. My grip on the steering wheel tightened.My chest constricted the moment I saw Nathan pick up Elena and swing her into the air. Elena dressed in pink and holding a bouquet of roses, she lo

    ARIANA'S POVA month had passed.I have now fully recovered. I moved out of Nathan's penthouse and rented an apartment where I could live with my daughter.Since that night, we hadn't discussed our wedding plans again. I told him I needed more time to think things through.I could still remember how angry he had seemed that night, and I honestly thought he wouldn't give me any time to reconsider.To my surprise, Nathan agreed. He stopped bringing up our wedding plans and Sophia's pregnancy.He still called every day to check on Elena. Sometimes he visited when he was free and took us to a lovely dinner. Yet, he never tried to bring up the subject again.The sun blazed overhead as I left the building and headed toward my white Audi. I just finished signing the purchase agreement for a prime building in the city center, where I planned to open another branch of my restaurant.My phone buzzed with an incoming call.It had to be Annabelle. She had taken Lillian to the local mall that mo

    NATHAN'S POV"Please keep your anger under control. We need to persuade her to cooperate. That's the only way we can get her to testify before the police." Annabelle's voice came from beside me.I was aware of that. Still, I wasn't certain I could hold myself together.The tires screeched loudly as the car came to an abrupt stop. I immediately stepped out and glanced around the area. It was a quiet place, far removed from the city's hustle and bustle, and I couldn't help wondering what Sophia had in mind by asking me to meet her here.Yes, the call come from her. She called and said she wanted to speak with me one last time.I moved forward. There was a small inn up ahead, and I figured she might be inside.That was when I spotted someone standing on the front porch. I could only see her from behind, but I was certain it was her."Nathan," Annabelle called.I simply turned to her and said, "Make sure everything is ready."She nodded and followed behind me.Sophia turned around as soo

    NATHAN'S POVWith quick strides, I approached Ariana.Deep inside me, anger was raging out of control. It was incredibly difficult to keep myself composed at that moment. But I didn't want to hurt her again simply because I couldn't rein in my temper."Nathan... were you following me?" Ariana's voice held a hint of fear.I didn't respond to her. Instead, I asked the question that had stirred up this inner turmoil. "Did you just say that Sophia is carrying my baby? Tell me, Ariana, where did you hear such ridiculous news?"I rested my hand on her shoulder. I didn't squeeze it hard; it was more of a gentle gesture as I sincerely waited for an honest response from her. She had a tendency to keep things to herself, and I hoped she would give me a truthful answer."I—" Ariana paused.That only deepened my curiosity. She had only just returned after being kidnapped.When had she even encountered Sophia? Unless she had crossed paths with her while she was missing.As everything finally began

    ARIANA'S POV"Welcome back home!" Annabelle exclaimed as we stepped through the doorway into the penthouse's sleek, modern interior.The luxurious decor and fresh, clean scent enveloped me, soothing my senses.Yet, a strange feeling rose within me.Home. What she called home was Nathan's penthouse.Today was finally the day I could leave the hospital after the doctor gave me a clean bill of health and confirmed that I was no longer dehydrated.Nathan forbidden me from returning to the house I'd inherited from Mr. Richard, and since I hadn't found a new apartment yet, he'd brought me to his place instead.Elena was already urging me to go back home, so I had little choice but to go along with it, at least for now."This is your room," Annabelle said with a smile. "Elena's room is right next door. If you need anything else, just let me know."I looked at her, taking in the warmth of her expression.We hadn't really had much of a chance to talk in the past, but I'd always known Annabelle
