I can even beat the lottery winner with happiness. It was my dream to have an art exhibit, but here it is, and an art gallery was provided by Delton. My heart was so happy and I almost couldn't stop painting again to increase my paintings in the exhibit itself. Daddy is strongly against this passion of mine, but I think they will be happy now that I am happy.My excitement is overflowing. I can't believe that I am living my dream. It's different when your dream comes true, it's like you're on a cloud. And if I wasn't pregnant, I would stay up every day just to finish many paintings."Done, Baby," I whispered softly after signing the last painting.I caressed my flat stomach and smiled as I looked at my finished painting of Delton's house—it was Delton's and my house."Soon you'll grow up here, Baby," I murmured."It's look alive, Savvy."I was slightly stunned by that and quickly turned to Delton. He was already behind me and staring at my last painting. I even estimated if he had hea
"Miss Sage, I'm—"I raised my hand to stop her."Please leave, Miss Ashley. I'm done with you," I responded coldly before turning away, but she immediately grabbed my elbow.A shiver settled in my chest and my eyes almost widened. I don't know what she plans, so I'm nervous. If earlier I thought she might be pregnant, now she might hurt me."Miss Sage," she called again with a cry.I closed my eyes tightly. Despite my nervousness, I felt pity for her. I want to listen, but I'm afraid."Shut up, Miss Ashley. Not now," I begged calmly, but her grip tightened on my elbow and pulled me a little further, causing my eyes to open.I want to scream, but I don't want to make a scene. I just looked around. They were all busy and didn't seem to notice me."Miss Sage, just a few minutes," she repeated.My gaze automatically flew to Delton. But he is in the group of entrepreneurs."Let me go, Ashley. I don't want to fight you right now," I begged again."Miss Sage, I just want to apologize for eve
"Won't you ask about Ashley's performance?" I teased.Ashley has been working with me for a few weeks now, and she's doing okay. I was just teasing Delton because I knew he was not in favor of what I did.From his laptop, he looked at me. His eyes are still serious."Your performance is much better than anyone else's," he teased, then smiled knowingly.My cheeks automatically turned red as I leaned against his desk. When he laughed softly after seeing the reddening of my cheeks, I was devastated. I immediately bent down and put my mouth on his ear."In bed or in the office?" I teased.He stopped and immediately stared at me. He bit his lip a little, and when he was about to pull my neck, I immediately straightened up."Focus, Mr. CEO." I grinned and walked away from his desk and moved to my desk.I acted as his secretary while he didn't have a secretary yet, but he also did all the work and I could only help with scheduling. I also want to tell you about my pregnancy, but I don't know
My tears fell after his lips landed on my forehead. He kissed me several times there and even kissed my tears away."I am already happy to have you, but I am now the happiest man alive, Savvy," he whispered with all his heart. That made my heart happy again.He planted a kiss on my lips before hugging me tightly."I thought you were mad," I admitted weakly."What? No, Savvy. "I really want to have a family with you," he said, moving away a bit and quickly wiping my tears.I smiled a little, especially when he put our hands together and led me out of the bathroom.After leaving, he helped me sit on the swivel chair before immediately taking out his cellphone and calling someone."Dad, I'm going to be a father," he reported with a smile on his face."Congratulations, son. You deserve every happiness in the world. Send my congratulations to Sage," said Attorney Santiago from the other line, so I nodded.They talked for a while, and I thought he would only call Attorney Santiago, but not
Delton Carancho"Are you sure about this, Son?" That was the question I remember from Attorney Santiago.I nodded my head as I looked at the picture of the only Princess of the Valencia family. I pursed my lips after remembering what her parents had done to mine, and so I wanted revenge."We can fake the marriage, Son," he suggested."No, Dad. Make it real. I'm only going to get married once, and let her marry me," I uttered with determination while staring at the woman.She captivates me. And that I can visibly see that she needs saving. Her lips were curved into a smile, but her eyes told otherwise. She looked sad even though she was smiling at the camera."If that's what you want. I'll warn you, she's a spoiled brat, doesn't know any household chores. Even in business, she doesn't know anything and she only does painting," he explained, to which I just nodded.Whatever it is, I can endure everything. But I didn't know that my patience would be put at risk because of her. She is sav
"I'm going home! Please, do not dare to stop me!" I shouted when I heard his footsteps getting near on the walk-in closet I was in. I have been planning to escape for days and yet keep failing since he's here. He was able to stop me all the time! Frustrating!"Hm, yeah, Savvy-""Will you stop calling me Savvy? And please, let me go home!" I cut him with his sweet nothings. "Am I stopping you from going home? I don't, Savvy." He shook his head and leant on the door jamb. I stop myself from packing my clothes and underwear in the suitcase just so I can face him fearlessly. And yet, he's not looking at me. Instead, he's looking down at my scattered clothes on the floor. "You're not stopping me, but what the fuck with those guards on the gate, Delton? Your displays?!"He abruptly looked at me and even acted as if he had forgotten who I was referring to."Oh, you already forgot Mr. June and Mr. Baldo?" I added.That's the only time he nodded, "Yeah. They are the subdivision guards. Do
"Sage," I whispered as I finished my signature name on the canvas.I can't help but smile while admiring the bouquet of white roses that I painted. Someday, on my wedding day, I'm going to hold this bouquet of white roses with an attached peach color.My smile widened with that thought. I even glanced at the painted off-shoulder wedding gown, as well as an elegant white-gold stiletto."Good job, Sage," I praised myself before running to the windows and taking a secret glance at Andres, who was busy pulling weeds.I pouted a little and stared at him, who looked savagely handsome under the hot sun. And even if he stood too far, I can imagine how his sinful sweat traveled from his forehead down to his sexy neck.My lips formed a smirk with his image in my mind. But then, my reverie faded as I parted my lips upon seeing the entrace of the grey Montero sport into our white high gate.I swallowed an invisible lump, and I don't know why I am suddenly nervous. I automatically hid behind the
I've realized he could be a way to escape this princess life. The only offer is to marry him and not to live with him.That morning, I already planned to marry him and escape. It's a dream come true to be able to live in the middle of nowhere and earn my own money. I'm going to sell my artwork and put on an exhibition.I smirked widely as I went down, running into the living room. But then, my feet automatically stopped when my eyes met the dark stares of the man that I painted last night. He's there, sitting and leaning against the backrest of the sofa, as if he owned the freaking mansion. His lips moved a little, and he intriguingly scanned my whole being. I was tongue-tied, and at that moment, my confidence was nowhere to be found. When a sinful smirk appeared on his sinful lips as he stared deeply into my eyes, I felt ashamed and wanted to flee.I almost had goosebumps and felt my face go bloodless."Did you paint again, Sage? How many times do I have to tell you to stop that non
