When I got home, Rose told me that Cassian was still not back. In all honesty, I had practically given up on trying to fix our relationship. I mean, it was pretty obvious that Cassian didn’t want to fix things, so I was done forcing it.

I know I made a mistake, but I was really sorry about it, and I probably blew the whole thing up by involving Celeste in the conversation. If this was the way it was going to be, then I decided to live with it.

After showering and changing, I decided to get a li

    I didn't wake up the next morning in a better mood. I couldn't shake the ominous feeling I had. I placed a hand on my stomach as it dawned on me that I had one more potential threat to my baby.I eventually got out of bed, ready to begin the new day.My morning sickness was gradually getting better as the days passed by, and I couldn't possibly be happier.If I threw up aggressively one more time, I was certain one or two organs would come out.This morning I felt like eating pancakes completely bathed in maple syrup, and I had already informed Rose.I guess my taste buds were gradually coming back. It was still a shame I couldn't drink coffee, though. My caffeine was what kept me going most mornings.When I had finished getting ready, I proceeded downstairs to the dining room to find Cassian already seated."Morning." I mumbled out as I took a seat."Good morning." He didn't look up from whatever he was looking at."Good morning, ma'am." Rose greeted me cheerfully, dropping a plate o

    I quickly took a glass of water to calm my violent coughs. What was Melissa doing here?Rose ran up to me, her eyes filled with worry."Are you okay, ma'am?!"I nodded and eventually calmed down."Y..Yes, um...where is she exactly?""She's outside the manor gate. She hasn't been let in yet."What was Melissa doing here?There was no way she was up to any good."Should we let her in, ma'am?"I could pretend not to be home, right?I shook my head. No, that wouldn't work. Melissa acted out whenever she didn't get what she wanted, and I was in no mood to find out what she would do if I refused to see her."Ma'am?""Yes?" Her voice jolted me out of my thoughts."You haven't said anything yet.""Um...sure, let her in."Rose looked skeptical. "Are you sure, ma’am? You don't have to see her if you don't want to.""No, it's fine, let her in." I gave her a reassuring smile."Okay, ma'am." She nodded and walked away.Well, I couldn't finish my meal anymore; that was for certain.I stood up and m

    "Hello, Miss Hart. How are we doing today?"The doctor greeted me as she took her seat."I feel fine. I mean, despite throwing up every other morning. I think I've got this whole pregnancy thing down."She laughed. "That's nice to hear. Apart from that, is there any other discomfort?""I did feel dizzy once, but other than a slight wave of dizziness, I was completely fine."She nodded. "It happens from time to time. Anything else?""No, not really. Oh yeah, I had to drink wine at an event. Will that do anything? It was just a simple sip.""No, it shouldn't, but do try to avoid it in the future." She paused and dropped her pen."I take it you haven't told your husband yet?"I shook my head. "I... I haven't had the chance.""Hmm. I would advise you to tell him as soon as possible. You will start showing soon, and you wouldn't be able to hide it any longer."I nodded. "I'll tell him.""Okay, so everything seems to be in order, which is wonderful news. You can continue as you were. Try to

    What document? Why was this woman hellbent on ruining any kind of happiness I had?'What document?' I asked in response.'It's a confidential document containing information regarding a project called 'Helix'. I need to know how much Cassian knows about it.'Was I supposed to check every single document in his office with Helix written on it?What the hell?I furrowed my eyebrows in curiosity as I reread the text. It still wasn't clear to me."What's up?" Beth asked me when she saw the look on my face."Um...nothing. It's nothing."As I walked to my office, I was still lost in thought. A file? Where would I begin to search for that? And how much time would I have in his office before I got caught?I ended up not focusing for the rest of the day and ultimately decided to go home early.When I got home, Rose informed me that Cassian wasn't home yet.After I had finished washing up and changed, I decided to go to the garden to read.Hopefully, that would help determine what I should do.

    I couldn't sleep. I was there in bed, my eyes wide open. What was Vivienne going to ask me to do now?After the ominous call, I immediately stopped crying. Instead, it was replaced by violent hiccups.I had to drink two glasses of water before it finally stopped.What did she ask me to do?Well, she just dropped the cryptic message, 'I need you to get a piece of information for me from Cassian.'She then told me she would text me exactly what I needed to find.Why call if you were planning on texting me in the first place?!Now I was in bed, panicking.I just had a fight with Cassian about feeding information to his mother; now she asked me for it again.What was I going to do?I clenched my fingers together as I weighed my options.Should I actually be what Cassian calls me? An informant for his Mother?Or should I prove him wrong and show Vivienne I had a mind of my own and it wasn't hers to toy with?I placed a hand on my stomach."What should Mom do?"Vivienne could easily resort

    I had a pretty ordinary day planned ahead. I wasn't planning on going out today. I wanted to spend the day resting, plus I hadn't painted in a while, and I was feeling a bit inspired.I hummed as I got ready, and when I had finished, I took a few seconds to look at my baby's sonogram picture. It had become something I did every day now before I left the room. It almost felt like looking at the pictures helped me see how my baby was doing.I smiled as I dropped it back into the drawer.I walked out of my room and hummed all the way to the dining room for breakfast.There, Rose was already setting down a plate."Good morning, ma'am. You seem to be in a good mood.""As a matter of fact, I am."The truth was, I was happy Melissa was put in her place. I definitely enjoyed her reaction more than I was supposed to."Does this have anything to do with the event you and Mr. Rooke attended yesterday? Have you both finally settled your issues?"I rolled my eyes. "As if. It's something else." I s
