I tried to pick up the pregnancy report before anyone could see it. But before I could take it, Stella snatched it. She looked at the report with wide eyes and turned to Ava, who was still glaring at me. "Ava, look at this, " she said.

"Stella please, give it back." I pleaded as I tried to snatch it away from her. But before I could take to she gave it to Ava. Ava read the report carefully and turned her attention to me with so much hatred in her eyes that if looks could kill I would be dead.

"You bitch, how dare you try to trap Nicolas with bastard children." She raised her hand and struck me hard. I gasped at the impact and held my throbbing cheek. They think I was trapping Nico with a bastard. The babies in my are the result of our love.

"Ava these babies are the fruits of Nico and I's love. How dare you insult them." I snapped as I placed a hand protectively over my belly. She smirked and walked up to me.

"And you think that Nicolas will believe you? Aria how naive are you?" Ava l

    Aria walked into the quiet restaurant, her laptop clutched tightly against her chest. Her eyes swept the polished space until she spotted Alex waiting near the windows.“Aria,” he greeted warmly, rising at once and pulling out her chair. “How are you?”She gave him a small but genuine smile as she sat down. “I’m fine, Alex. And you?”“Can’t complain,” he said with a light grin. “Though I’ll admit, I was looking forward to this meeting more than usual.”Aria tilted her head, amused. “Why’s that?”Before he could answer, a familiar voice carried across the restaurant.“Because he knew I’d steal the spotlight,” came Anthony Lorenzo’s deep, commanding tone. Anthony Lorenzo called Aria two days ago after her appointment and asked her to bring in the special designs he had requested.Aria rose instantly as the older man approached. Even in his fifties, Anthony carried himself with effortless authority. Sharp eyes, silver at his temples, and the aura of someone accustomed to being obeyed. Ye

    The city lights blurred past as Emma gripped the steering wheel, her sharp eyes scanning the streets ahead while Aria sat quietly in the passenger seat. Her hands rested gently on her belly, still hidden beneath her oversized coat, and a nervous flutter danced in her chest.“I still can’t believe we’re finally doing this,” Aria whispered, her voice soft, almost fragile.Emma glanced at her, smirking. “Believe it, Ari. You’ve been carrying this secret long enough. Time to find out if you’re having a little troublemaker, a tiny genius, or both.”Aria let out a shaky laugh, the tension in her shoulders easing slightly. “Both…” she murmured, almost to herself, remembering the twins. The thought made her heart pound. She had kept this secret from Nicolas, from Ava, even from everyone else but now, finally, she would know the genders.The car pulled up in front of the clinic. Emma killed the engine and turned to her, her smile encouraging. “Ready?”Aria took a deep breath and nodded. “As re

    The office was hushed, the hum of the office muted behind closed doors. Nicolas caged her in with one arm braced against the wall, his eyes dark with accusation.“You forced me into marriage, Aria,” he bit out. “You bargained with me your blood for Ava’s life. And now you disappear for weeks without a word? Don’t tell me this is some new tactic to make me chase you. Playing hard to get doesn’t suit you.”Aria’s chest tightened, but her expression stayed cold, composed. She clutched her sketchbook like armor.“Hard to get?” Her voice was calm, but each word sliced like a blade. “You threw me out in the middle of the night, Nicolas. You believed every lie Ava fed you. You believed that falsified report… the one that said the baby I carry wasn’t yours.”Nicolas stiffened, his jaw locking.Aria’s eyes glistened, but her tone never wavered. “I forced that marriage because I wanted a family for my child. And because I was foolish enough to love you. But now?” She drew in a sharp breath, her

    The conference room glittered under the chandeliers as the King family took their seats. Charles and Stella greeted Ava warmly, their smiles radiant. “Ava, darling, we’re so glad you’re the one leading this project,” Stella said proudly. “You’ve matured so much. Nicolas is lucky to have you at his side.”Charles nodded in agreement. “This collaboration will be historic. Brown Jewelry and the King Empire together it’s exactly what we want to show the world.”Ava’s smile was dazzling, her hand resting lightly on Nicolas’s arm as if she already belonged there.At the far end of the table, Aria sat quietly, pen poised above her notes. Her oversized coat and calm demeanor made her look almost invisible but her sharp eyes missed nothing. She had learned long ago that silence was its own kind of power.The presentation began. Ava spoke first, her tone polished and confident. “Our preliminary theme is Royal Heritage. Crowns, tiaras, crests, symbols of majesty and wealth. It aligns with King

    For the next few days, Aria buried herself in work. She said nothing, showed nothing, simply delivered her designs with quiet precision. Her oversized coats and calm face gave no clue about the storm inside her.But things… began to shift.On Monday, two of her sketches mysteriously went missing from the design board. The manager scolded her for being careless, though Aria knew she hadn’t misplaced them. She bit her lip and said nothing.On Tuesday, one of her finished pieces was returned with a note claiming it was “unoriginal.” The handwriting wasn’t her manager’s. Aria recognized Ava’s elegant script instantly. Still, she lowered her head and took the criticism.By Wednesday, deadlines she hadn’t been informed of suddenly appeared on her desk. Her colleagues whispered behind her back, clearly pleased to see the once-respected designer faltering. Ava and her assistant Lila lingered in the background, watching it all unfold with poisonous smiles.And through it all, Aria endured. She

    The morning at Collins Jewelry was unusually tense. Whispers spread like wildfire through the office floor.“Did you hear? Collins Jewelry got acquired.” “Yeah, by the Brown family company!” “Wait… the Browns? As in Ava Brown’s family?” “Exactly. And rumor is she’s coming here today.”Aria walked in quietly, her oversized coat wrapped tightly around her frame. Her sketchbook was clutched close to her chest, the only thing anchoring her in place. She tried to ignore the buzz around her, but Bella, her closest colleague, appeared at her side in an instant.“Aria,” Bella whispered, her voice urgent. “It’s official. The Browns bought us out. And guess who’s the new executive in charge?”Aria’s stomach knotted. “…Don’t tell me—”Before Bella could answer, the conference room doors burst open.The sharp click of red stilettos echoed through the air.A tall figure in a tailored designer suit walked in, her lips curled into a victorious smile.“Ava Brown?” one of the employees gasped.A
