It was a one sided marriage for all he could remember. But what happens when he discovers that he actually has feelings for her? Lucius Davis and Daisy Diego have been a married couple for 2 years and counting. Even though Daisy was aware of the fact that Lucius didn't totally love her back, she still tried her luck to get his full attention and love. "Congratulations, Daisy. You're 1 month pregnant". Hearing these magic words in her ears caused her to rush to her husband's company, hoping to inform him of the good news. She entered Lucius's office only to discover his ex in the office with him. Daisy discovered the hard way that she was just a replacement for his ex-girlfriend who once rejected him, but was now back. Lucius handed a divorce paper that minute to Daisy. His pairs of crimson eyes were staring coldly at Daisy, expecting her to sign the paper. "I…. I hate you, Lucius!". Daisy trembled, and with a shaky voice she said. She threw the divorce paper at Lucius's face and dashed out of his office. As soon as she came out, the tears that gathered in her dark blue eyes finally fell on her cheeks. It was evening time when Lucius returned to the mansion, but no signs of Daisy since she already packed her belongings and left.
View More"Congratulations, Daisy. You're 1 month pregnant". Daisy's doctor announced it to her.
For the first time in 2 years, Daisy finally heard the magic words she always wanted to hear. She has been married to Lucius for 2 years, but there was nothing like romance between them. Until recently, one fateful evening when Lucius returned back home drunk.Daisy didn't know what got into Lucius, but that evening was when he laid with her for the first time ever.Daisy was still in disbelief of what her doctor said, so with doubtful eyes, she asked, "Are you really serious about this, doctor?".The doctor didn't say anything and only nodded his head at her for confirmation.Daisy smiled seeing her doctor's positive reaction. With haste, she left the check-up room.Daisy was already outside the hospital when she breathed deeply and happily said to herself, "I didn't believe this day would finally come. I think Lucius too would be in disbelief about this. But I'm sure he'd be happy to hear the news and celebrate with me".Daisy's car was parked in the hospital's parking lot. In order not to hurt her stomach, so she imagined, she was walking gently and carefully until she spotted her black honda. She arrived at her car, brought out the key for it from the backpack she hung on her back and opened the car's front door.Daisy entered the car, sitting at the driver's seat before she drove off as she plans to pay a visit to Lucius's company.It wasn't up to 20 minutes of driving and Daisy arrived at Lucius's company and was at the parking lot side.Not to Daisy's surprise, almost billions of expensive cars were parked where she was at the parking lot. And this was an everyday normal thing because, many famous companies always try their shots to get a contract investment from Lucius's company.Lucius's company is known as the number 1# successful company in the world. But unknown to Lucius, part of the success came from Daisy. Daisy is the eldest daughter of Mr Diego, a well known billionaire and an influencer. Although Daisy almost cut all ties with her family 2 years ago since they were against her marriage with Lucius.For the past 2 years after Daisy got married to Lucius, she opened an anonymous account, and just like her father, she was a great and skilled influencer too. Her influencing skills of advertising and promoting Lucius's company to the whole world came in handy, and since Lucius was a knowledgeable CEO and a great Chairman in the field of work, that just worked out Daisy's advertisement perfectly.Daisy could feel her heart pounding really fast as she came down from her car. Her forehead was even sweating."This is it, Daisy. If Lucius learns of this good news, he will finally love you with all his heart. And not to mention it, one day, he'll also learn that I'm not just an ordinary housewife".She said to herself and was filled with confidence as she made her way into the company floors.."Lucius, why aren't you saying anything? Don't tell me you've fallen in love with your wife". Annabelle Miller questioned with doubtful eyes seeing that Lucius wasn't saying anything yet.She pouted her lips and said, "But you know I had my reasons for rejecting to marry you then. I travelled to Korea to pursue my dream of being a popstar, but then I realised, my best dream is to be married to you. I came back and you were already married. That really broke my heart, you didn't even wait for me to come back and you married".Tears dropped from Annabelle's eyes to her cheeks.Lucius panicked, he stood up from his office chair and walked towards where Annabelle was sitting in his other office chair.He caressed her face and cleaned the tears on her cheek. "Don't worry, I'll handle everything. Just give me a week. You'll be my wife in a week". Lucius's husky voice came through and assured Annabelle.Annabelle smiled at Lucius. Her hands were just about to hold Lucius's hand when finally, they heard a slight noise from the office entrance door.They both stared to the direction of the door and saw Daisy staring at them with widened shocked eyes that were teary."I…. I'm sorry Boss. I tried to stop your wife from coming, but…. Please pardon me". Lucas, Lucius's trusted pa, announced as soon as he came inside the office.Lucius sighed in defeat. With his right hand, he signalled at Lucas for him to leave the office."Sure Boss". Lucas lowered his head at Lucius in respect as he replied. That same seconds, he left the office, leaving Lucius, Annabelle and Daisy alone."Lucius. What did I hear you say? We've been married for a while now. How can you make this kind of decision without my consent?". Daisy questioned, almost looking desperate.Daisy waited to hear what Lucius would say, but seeing that he didn't say anything, she questioned again, "Why would you want to make her your wife? Who is she? What does she have that I don't have?"."My love". Lucius suddenly said."Lo-ve?". Daisy muttered, but her voice was audible enough to be heard by Lucius and Annabelle."She has my love, Daisy. Something you could never have". Lucius declared.To Annabelle's ears, Lucius's words were like a bomb in her stomach that was giving her butterflies all over. Unlike Daisy, Lucius's words shattered her heart completely into pieces, she was at loss of words.Daisy saw Lucius hold Annabelle's hand just before he said to her, "Annabelle is my ex. I only married you in the first place because you remind me of her. But now she's back, let's be reasonable and end this one sided love of our marriage".Daisy still couldn't say anything even after listening to Lucius's words. Everything that's happening now was like a dream to her.Lucius stopped holding Annabelle's hand. He walked towards the left side of his office where the shelf was. And on top of one of the shelfs, he brought out a large envelope.Lucius handed the envelope to Daisy, all Daisy could do was collect it since she was curious to see what was inside of it.From the envelope, Daisy brought out some documents, and on one of the document sheets, two words "DIVORCE AGREEMENT" were written on it."You…. You want to divorce me? But why?". Daisy questioned in disbelief. Her eyes were redder than before since she was having a breakdown."I didn't mean for this to happen sooner. But since you're here and you already know why I married you, let's end things for good". Lucius said, not feeling guilty or anything.As Daisy further examined the document, it reached a point where the document states that she'd be offered a large sum of money."What do you take me for? A gold digger? I'm not going to sign this stupid paper". Daisy felt insulted and said. And the instant she said this, she felt Lucius's crimson eyes staring coldly at her, expecting her to use the pen he gave her to sign the divorce document.This is the first time Daisy has seen this cold side of Lucius!."I…. I hate you, Lucius!". Daisy trembled, and with a shaky voice she said. She threw the divorce paper including the pen at Lucius's face and dashed out of his office. As soon as she came out, the tears that already gathered in her dark blue eyes finally fell on her cheeks.The other city of California, It was just a few hour ride and Asher returned to their hometown with Zeke and Zach. Asher parked his car inside Lucian's mansion before they all got down. Zeke and Zach ran into the massive building which was in front of them. “Mom, we're back! Lily, Emily, Dad!”. Zach excitedly yelled out as soon as he entered the mansion. Anya was inside the kitchen when she heard Zach's voice. She immediately stopped what she was doing and went to the living room to meet him. Upon arriving inside the living room, Anya said to Zach, “Calm down, son. Reduce your voice. Your father and sisters, including me, we're all around in the mansion. Actually, your father is in his study room with Lily and Emily”. “Mom!”. Zach excitedly exclaimed and ran to hug Anya tightly. Zeke saw the way Zach behaved and slightly shook his head at him. ‘Tsk, Zach is still behaving like a baby’. Zeke thought to himself. Later on, he simply waved his hand at Anya. “You bra
Almost throughout the day, Daisy and Dahlia were busy because they were finalising the contracts for their companies’ cooperation. Daisy's office, “All done. Dahlia, you've finally signed all the contracts. Now, my company would be able to invest in your company”. Daisy announced with a smile. Meanwhile, Dahlia was so over the moon. She didn't exactly know how to react. Dahlia suddenly said to Daisy, “It's already 4pm, big sis. Which day are we preparing to go to China?”. “What are you talking about?”. “I mean, this morning, didn't you say we'd all travel to China to meet our mother?”. Dahlia raised an eyebrow as she reminded Daisy about what happened earlier in the morning. “I know that, Dahlia. I was only kidding. Anyway, we're going to the airport exactly by 7pm. Our flight to China is tonight”. Daisy suddenly announced, causing Dahlia to be super stunned. Dahlia's mouth was opened for a while before she eventually said some words, “That fast? You've already bought our t
“So that's it, my dear. Your Mom is currently in China. She's currently admitted to one of the best treatment centres over there”. “It's been 20 years already since she was in a coma”. Diego added and his face was filled with worries. “I can't believe this. My mom is still alive. It's– it's really unbelievable!”. Daisy muttered, and the tears she held back started gushing out again. “I'm so sorry for not telling you sooner, daughter. But my point is, forgive Lucius about what he'd done to you, so that you won't live in regret like me”. “Father, I've wholeheartedly forgiven Lucius. But, I don't think I'll get back with him”. Daisy replied sincerely to her father. Diego and Daisy spend many more minutes outside before they return inside the mansion. Diego went to his room, same with Daisy. As soon as Daisy entered her room, she went to her bed and laid on it. Different thoughts were playing inside her head, so she couldn't sleep, at least, not yet. After thinking for a while
The kids arrived inside their bedroom and immediately informed Zeke and Zach about what was going on. Unfortunately, Alexander, Jack and Henry, received a heartbreaking response from Zeke and Zach. Zeke and Zach informed them that they were also going to return to their hometown by tomorrow. “What are we going to do now, big brother Alex?”. Henry asked, as he was reluctant to return back to Las Vegas. “I- I don't know”. Alexander honestly replied, and said nothing afterwards. The time was running fast, and it was nighttime. Everyone ate dinner with dull faces. In fact, no one was happy. After dinner, Dahlia took all the plates to the kitchen, as she wanted to wash them all. Upon arriving in the kitchen, Dahlia began washing the plate like a robot. Meaning, her emotions were off and on. Dahlia was still doing the dishes when Teresa came to meet her. “Seriously? Is no one really going to say anything about this? Don't tell me you really want Daisy to return back to Las Vegas
Louis was silently staring at his unconscious son, but deep inside his heart, he was feeling great stinging pain. Meanwhile, Cassandra continued to cry as she pleaded with Lucius to wake up. Seeing what was happening, Damien felt even more guilty within himself. He confronted Louis and apologised, “I'm sorry, big brother”. After saying this, he left the ward. Actually, many hours ago, after Damien had brought Lucius to the hospital, he called Louis and informed him about what had happened to his son. Speaking of which, as soon as Damien came outside Lucius's ward, he saw Daisy– who looked as if she was thinking. She didn't leave yet, instead she squatted by the opposite wall– which was facing the door to Lucius's ward. In no time, Damien copied Daisy and also squatted beside her. “Are you alright? You know it's not your fault”. Damien suddenly broke the silence and said to Daisy. Daisy didn't say anything yet, as she was still at a loss for words. “To be fair, befor
Teresa and Dahlia arrived in the kitchen and immediately, they began making breakfast. Since Teresa was injured, Dahlia allowed her to do an easy task, which was– making the tea. Meanwhile, Dahlia handled making the toast breads and scrambled eggs. It didn't take 20 minutes, and they finished making breakfast for everyone, except Andrew. Andrew was already journeying to Las Vegas with the 7 strikers and Annabelle, so there wasn't any need to prepare breakfast for him. “Alright, I'll leave everything to you”. Teresa said to Dahlia after making the tea. She put all the cups of tea in the empty tray pan, after which she carried the tray pan to the dining room. The dining room, Now all the food was on the dining table. Everyone gathered in the dining room, and sat in the chairs– which surrounded the large dining table. After taking a bite from her toasted bread, Dahlia finally realised that the kids hadn't arrived in the dining room. “Big sis, where's Alex, Jack and Henry? Aren't
