Chapter 16

“Why do you have an NDA drawn up, Vanessa?” Emily asked angrily.

Maybe Becca was right. Maybe Vanessa wasn’t her friend anymore.

“To protect the rights of my unborn child and my family,” Vanessa said, dropping the pen on top of the file. Hell, she was tired of holding the damn thing out if Emily was not just going to take it off her hands.

“So suddenly I’m now the threat?” Emily asked, confused, as she pulled her brows together.

“You know what I mean, Emily,” Vanessa said with a shrug as she struggled not to roll her eyes.

Yes, she had come to Emily, but then again, Emily needed to understand the situation that was at stake, what the news of her childbirth situation and the identity of the surrogate mother would do to the multi-billion-dollar company.

So it was best if this NDA was signed and cleared out of the way.

“Oh, so now I’m a threat to the rich, big-ass billionaires that need my help?” Emily said, throwing her hands in the air

    Chapter 18 “Oh my goodness, this tastes amazing!” Mr. Watson, Emily’s father, exclaimed as the delicious flavor from the blueberry muffins burst in his mouth. He closed his eyes as he savored the taste of one of the best muffins he had ever tasted. “Oh, Daddy, it can’t be that good. You’re overreacting just to make me feel good,” his teenage daughter Emily said as she punched him playfully on his arm. “What! Why would I do that?” Mr. Watson said as he opened his eyes, surprised that his daughter still didn’t have enough confidence in her baking as she should. “Sweetie, this is one of the best muffins I have ever tasted besides your mom’s,” he said, winking at his wife standing by the kitchen counter, who had now given him a side-eye look, prompting laughter from both Emily and her father, followed by her kid brother CJ, who was now playing with the muffins instead of eating them. “Really, Daddy? You really think so?” Emily said, her eyes shining as warmth spread throug

    Chapter 17 Richard winced as his eyes read through the text message he had just gotten from Vanessa. It was her wishing him a good day at the office, like they were normal people, a normal married couple in love. Which they most certainly weren’t. Hell, she had somehow managed to lure him into bringing a child into their loveless marriage, and now he was going to have to bring a child up in the same environment he had grown up in, and he was not having it. Not only that, he had recently started having dreams of him and Emily dreams he had gone through serious therapy just to overcome. Hell, it had taken him a lot of time to finally be able to go a day without Emily being his sleeping and waking thoughts. And as of two years ago, he had stopped trying to know and keep up to date with whatever was going on in her life. That was after he had hired a private investigator to spy on her the night after his honeymoon. He had been keeping updates on her, including when sh

    Chapter 15 “Hello,” Vanessa said, with a stiff expression on her face. “Can I come in?” she said. “Vanessa… what are you doing here?” Emily said, stuttering. As much as she had prayed for a response from Vanessa, seeing her standing on her doorstep was never part of the deal. “I’m here because you decided to take the deal,” Vanessa responded, before dipping her hands into the bag as she fished out the device. She scrolled on the phone before coming to a stop, flashing the phone in front of her. “See? I’m here because of that. Will you let me in, or will you just stand there looking at me like a stranger?” Vanessa added, rolling her eyes. Emily, still surprised, shifted just enough for Vanessa to go through as she let her eyes roam freely all over Vanessa. She was putting on an expensive peach two-piece with a skirt. She looked classy, and the scent of her expensive perfume filled Emily’s nostrils as she passed. Vanessa looked completely out of place walking

    Chapter 14 “Do you think she saw it?” Emily asked anxiously from the kitchen, but loud enough for Becca to hear. “She should have by now. It’s even showing that she has already read the message,” Becca replied, stepping into the kitchen and flashing the phone in front of Emily’s face. Emily lifted her gaze from the dough she was kneading, her eyes scanning the same message she had been obsessing over for four days. Her stomach sank. Still no response. It has been four days since Emily texted Vanessa that she was interested in taking the deal, and yet there has still been no response from her. No reply, no call. Nothing. Just radio silence. After two days of waiting, she had decided to try calling her. But the call had gone straight to voicemail, and that was when the had panic started. “Mrs Billionaire probably changed her mind about whatever it is you two discussed,” Becca said, moving to sit on the kitchen island. “The same deal you keep refusing to tell me about.

    Chapter 13 “What do you mean they want to pull out from the contract?” Richard yelled into his phone. This cannot be happening. How can he be fighting two wars at once? He had just left the table after Vanessa had made that ridiculous statement because of the call he had gotten from his manager. And knowing his manager well, he knew the man never called at this time of the night unless it was very important. So he reluctantly peeled himself away from the table just so he could take the call properly, and this was the bullshit he was hearing? He had spent millions of dollars just trying to get this contract and had to take on several other contracts that almost cost him the company if he had not succeeded, but he did. All this for them to now pull off this bullshit? “No!” he said, his voice rising more than it should have. “They cannot back down now. I’ve already told the whole world about this. Do you know how this would look like? They would say that i lied!” He
