THREE WEEKS AFTER
Anna's POV
I wish this isn't a facade. I hope this is real. Me in my wedding dress, sitting in front of the mirror, admiring being a beautiful bride and patiently waiting for the time to go say yes to the man of my dreams. But this is the total opposite, I am admiring myself right now but I don't admire the type of life I am living.
I don't like the fact that I am getting married today to a man I don't love and who doesn't love me. I like Aidan for being a strong, hardworking man and for being the father of my baby but I also dislike him a lot.
Our wedding is going to be a small one in the church nearby the house. He suggested we move before the wedding but I told him I want to get married in the house where I grew up. Mother can move to the house he bought for us after the wedding, when I am already in his house.
I know Aidan isn't proud of me. He isn't p
Damien's POVNever in my wildest dream have I ever imagined life to be this sorrowful for me and depressing. I feel like a real loser for once in a while. I have always rejoiced in the delight of being a winner in virtually everything I do, but I take rejection and failure the hard way. I beat myself up for whatever failure I get.Aidan knows this about me. I was always the guy with the grade A in mid-school but the year Aidan took A, I almost stopped being friends with him. I felt betrayed. I felt he took the position from me on purpose. I felt he did it to spite me. My mother said I was just being childish and I accepted after giving it several thoughts.Ever since the night of the award, I spend most of my days indoors. I am not ready to give up, I won't relent until I see Aidan down. I am drafting new plans to achieve my goals and my confidence is beginning to set in at this rate, I am just hoping it doesn't turn out
Anna's POVWhen I see Tony's name flash across my phone screen, I assume he is calling to know if I am truly married or not.The first time he asked me a question like that, it sounded ridiculous to my ears but now that it is real, I feel ashamed of telling him about my unreal marital status."How are you doing, Anna?" He requests. I am quite surprised he Is sounding cool and calm. His voice isn't raised and I can't detect any tone of anger, impatience, or apprehension."I am fine, Tony. How are you?" I demand from him too?I am still expecting him to ask, 'Are you married? I saw it in the news', but he isn't saying anything.I know seeing my marriage to Aidan in the news is not expected because of how quiet it was but I wouldn't be surprised if it happened to be on the news. There are spies everywhere and would do all it takes to get
Tessa's POV"Aidan is married?" I open my mouth in disbelief.I can't believe he eventually married that low-life girl. I thought something will happen and he will realize she is not his type of girl but the message before me proves otherwise."Congratulations, Aidan is married to Anna Gomez", it reads.Damien sent me the message. He has been calling me for half an hour now but I did not pick up his calls. He sent the message instead and I can't believe it.Is this a prank to make me pick his call? I ask myself but after waiting for some minutes for his call to come in and it didn't. Now I know the purpose of his call. He was calling to taunt me
Aidan's POVI had a long day at work today. My work has increased ten folds now that I have new clients, new ideas that I want to work on before the year runs out.Ever since the award night, I have always signed a new deal almost every week. I now have a personal assistant because of the workload. My personal assistant and the secretary now help me in reducing the loads of work I have to work on every week before the arrival of new ones.I know I need a vacation but I can't go on one now. I have a lot to cover before then. I am also planning on launching my new innovative skill next week in Los Angeles. I have employed new workers for innovative ideas and they are really helping. I am also partnering with Madeline's steel manufacturing Industry and I have established a car company in Boston.I release my tie the moment I get out of the car. I heave a sigh of relief for being home after a long
Evelyn's POV"Mom, I want to know who the hell my father is and where he is at the moment", Anna's unexpected question startles me the moment I enter the house.I haven't gotten over the kiss that happened between me and my boss and here I am receiving Anna at the most ungodly time of the day.What the hell is she doing here? I ask within me.This is definitely not the right time to talk about her riff-raff of a father. I am not in the mood to do any talking at the moment. Now that I will no longer work with Mr. Adams, I want to restrategize my life and find my bearings.Anna is sitting on the couch, with her protruding belly and an angry look on her face. She has a key to the house but I am surprised she is here by this time, it's almost 11 pm.I walk in and sit on the next couch in exhaustion. I wasn't really tired from working but the thought of not
Anna's POV I have two fathers? How is that even possible? How can I have two fathers? One of them has to be my biological father. I couldn't wait for the next day to get my answers so I went out to the car after leaving Aidan in his room. I am fucking pissed at him. I was already in my pajamas when he arrived and I didn't bother to go change before coming here. Mother is in a straight skirt with a maroon peplum top. I sit with numbness staring at her but her sob jerks me out of my reverie. A tear trickles down her eyes and I find myself unable to ask her why I have two fathers. My head is blank and I can't seem to find an answer to the question myself. Instead of answers, more questions were arising. Is it possible for two men to father a child? Was my mother cheating on my father? Was she dishonest with him? How did she end up with two men in her life? I am looking into space with more questions coming up, making it difficult for me to reach any conclusion. I believe my moth
SIX MONTHS AFTERAidan's POVI get out of the Ferrari after parking in the driveway. It is past 9 pm already and I am damn tired. I left work early today because I feel I need to rest so I won't end up sick. I have been working hard these past few days and I am already considering a vacation soon, with my baby Lily. She is two months old.I take long strides toward the house with my briefcase while losing my tie with my right hand. I exhale deeply when the tie is off and my phone rings Immediately.It is Richard and I wonder why he is calling me this late."Congratulations to the jack of all trades", he screams."Jack of all trade?" I furrow my brows in confusion.I have no idea what the idiot is talking about. He always call at the wrong time, either when I am too tired of his drama or when he wants to tease me about something and
Damien's POVI flutter my eyes open when I feel the sudden seeping of sunlight into my room. The flash is directly on my face and I know someone is behind it. As soon as I adjust my eyes to the bright light, Paige drops a large file on my bed, almost slapping my face.I glare at her as she stands with arms akimbo. I yawn loudly and sit upright, laying my head on the headboard. I wonder what is wrong now. Last week, we fought because of the girl I had sex with in the club.We fight almost every week, she is either accusing me of being unfaithful or complaining that I am not giving her enough attention. She loves nagging and I have threatened her with a divorce when she does that again.I married her for a reaso
