Present day.

Freya's p.o.v

A loud thunderous round of applause filled the conference room following the announcement of a successfully completed record breaking merger, one that will cement our position as a leader in the jewelry industry.

Merging with the prominent 'Natural stones' diamond mining company is no joke or easy task.

I have not only worked tirelessly for months, pouring my heart and soul into designing the exclusive pieces that would be showcased in our company's new campaign, but also ensuring for the successful merging with 'Natural stones' which will not only pave way for our visibility or exposure in the Jewelry market, but also give us the upper hand to fix prices— a situation that most jewelry empires can only have after final production. This opportunity has literally made us a producer and a seller of jewelries of all kinds.

I stood confidently beside my team, basking in the praise and admiration of our peers. The sense of pride and accomplishment was ove

    Ethan's p.o.vDamian led me in as he closed the door. "Please, sit," he said to me, gesturing at the leather yet exotic couch in his living room.I dropped the fake files on the silica table in front of the couch. "I'll just go and call her now." Damian said.I hummed."My love," I heard him call out as he strolled away from the living room to wherever Freya obviously is.I scoffed, repeating after him. "My love."The sweet smell of the rose vase sitting at a distance in the room and close to the T.v filled up the air. I walked up to the vase and picked up a rose, sniffed on it and let it fill up my senses. But it wasn't long until a murmur interrupted. The noises were obviously coming from the inside and I could tell my secret had been exposed. It wasn't like I wouldn't get caught anyway but I'm glad I'm all the way in now at least."Sammy?" I overheard her queried Damian. "What do you mean by Sammy, Damian. Sammy didn't even come to work today. He's been like down with fever for

    Ethan's p.o.vI pulled over at a distance from afar as I wait for Freya's car to pass by so I can pull my usual trick on the old man again.But hours passed by and I couldn't see any traces of her car, or her, coming forth.Damn it! She ought to have been back. It's evening already. Or perhaps, she had returned earlier today.Impatient and by the look of the weather, I hopped out of my car and strode towards the gateman at the entrance."Good day, Sir," I greeted but not without a confident and convincing smile curling up my lips."Hello, Master. How is it going?" The old man retorted, reciprocating with a smile. His eyes narrowed as his gaze met mine. "Wait, I think know you. You are Mrs. Freya's....Uhm...""Worker," I lied, reminding him. "And I have come to deliver some files she had asked me to."The old man's silence left me guessing like a fool and his gawk at me was a complete definition of 'you sure about that?'"Everything alright —Sir?" my tone was neutral."Are you sure, M

    Ethan's p.o.v"Thank you so much, Mr. Hamster. I believe your partnership with our empire will not only help foster our relationship but also facilitate each other's growth."The conference room ascended into a soft series of handshakes, smiles and congratulations as we finally bagged a new deal with one of the most prominent and first natural stones mining company in the country. Unreal!It was a really tough fight. From late night calls, to attending conferences, making the right connections and just doing everything that I can lay my mind and hands on just to revive my empire. And now, finally, the pain, pressure, sleepless nights and failure's worth it.It was hard trying to convince Mr. Hamster, who is president of the company. But perhaps, he saw through me and the good potential my company could have with the new plan I had had drafted out."I believe so too, Mr. Slade. And I'm sure your father wouldn't have been more proud of you." Mr. Hamster said but not without a handshak

    Ethan's p.o.vThe more revelations I hear Juliana expose, the more I hold on tight for sanity sake. "What?!" Her face squeezed into an interrogating grimace. "You mean you didn't send any of those, Ethan? Because there's absolutely no way you didn't or couldn't have."I flipped my hair roughly to the back, perplexed. "I swear, Juliana. I swear on my dead parents graves that I know absolutely nothing about these letter. The first day I ever got a letter from Freya, I had intended to send some only to be met with heartbreaking words. I mean why would I be asking of my own child now and not the very first day I met her at your wedding with Mark? I'm sure if not for the person that had sent me that anonymous letter about my child with her, I probably wouldn't have known."I find myself literally streaming tears, completely broken in front of Juliana as I felt the redness of my own face. But I couldn't care.I just need to know if Freya has been lying to me or not about Junior. Those blu

    Ethan's p.o.vI knocked on the door and two little children came to open it. "Hello, lovelies," I waved at them.An older feminine voice followed as her foot steps approached us all by the door. "Charlotte. Leon. Who is it—" her words cut as soon as she saw me by the door."Ethan?""Hello, Juliana. It's been a while."After the final divorce process has been finalized, Jane and I have parted ways peacefully and respectfully. Memories of my heated argument with Freya would usually replay in my head, flooding my thoughts each time I take Dylan to school and see Junior.I try my very best as much as possible not to trespass with him, but at some point, I wanted to snatch a strand of his hair for a DNA but I knew better the implications if I dared to.And so, I chose the other way instead. To visit Juliana— the only one whom I believe can erase my confusion about Junior being my child or at least have an idea on whom might have sent the letter."How have you been?" I asked Juliana as s

    Freya's p.o.vDamian dropped me gently and my feet landed softly on the marble floor in our bedroom. I felt an ugly shiver run down my spine as his thumb caressed my cheek, his manly hand cupping my side of the face."Thank you, Freya," he said. "You have no idea how much this means to me. Thank you for finally giving me a chance."Although he doesn't know it yet that the reason I had agreed to the marriage was because of his ailing health and the little time he has left before the disease completely take over.But this is a man who had seen me, held me up and believed in me when no one did yet he chose to keep his pain away from me. Honestly, I'd do this over again just to make the last years of his life memorable.I held Damian's hand as his thumb continued to caress my face sending shots of shivers all over my body. "I love you, Damian. I really do. And thank you being the best partner and father to my child. I couldn't have asked for anything more."My wedding gown was strapless,
