When we made it out to the parking lot, Angela and Lacey followed us as we followed Victor and Daya. When we watched them get on the interstate toward his offices, I felt safe enough to suggest, “Okay. Looks like he’s going back to work. We can head home now.” He smirked, “Is it my home too?” I chuckled, “I would like for it to be.” He turned to face me so fast I thought he was going to get whiplash, “Do you mean that?”

I nodded, biting my lower lip, “I do mean it. Am I going too fast?” He turned back to face the road, “I don’t think so. That’s what I’ve wanted since before I left for boarding school. I always dreamed of us living together, married or not, it never mattered to me. I just wanted to wake up to see your face first thing in the morning every day.” I gushed, “You are so sweet. I would like you to move in with me whenever it’s convenient for you.”

He sighed, “Hang on”. He told his car to call dad and it started ringing. Theodore answered on the second ring, “Danny, what’s go

Daniel is a sweet heart compared to Victor. Is Victor even Theodore biological son? I hope Daniel gets the proof that Winnie killed his mother or hired someone to cause it.

  • The Ex-Wife He Never Knew   Chapter 98

    Chapter 98The car ride on the way to the doctor’s office was one of comfortable silence. Daniel held me close the entire time and I was so grateful for it. He knew exactly what I needed to help my nerves. He kept his voice low and soothing as he comforted me, “It’s okay. It’s just a regular checkup. You need to keep your blood pressure down, baby. It’s not good for the babies.” That immediately calmed me down.He rubbed my back in comforting circles, “That’s better, love. We’ll get through it together.” When we got to the clinic, Victor and Theodore joined us outside the door. Victor approached me, took both of my hands and spread my arms wide, “Our babies hit a growth spurt.”I chuckled, “Yeah. I’m going to have to start making some maternity clothes soon. I’ve already stretched out two pairs of leggings. The rest refused the job altogether and rolled down my belly. Everyone, including me, laughed out loud as we entered the clinic.After I checked in, I sat with all the guys and loo

    After taking only a few minutes to change into something more presentable, Daniel and I went to Scott’s house. When we got there, Scott greeted us and I smiled, “Hey Scott. How are you feeling?” He answered, “I’m better. It’s irritating that I have to keep this arm immobile, but I survived and you are safe. That’s the best alternate outcome I can think of.”I smiled, “I feel horrible that you got shot. I never wanted anyone to get hurt because of me.” Scott smiled, “Ms. Harley, none of this was because of you. It was because your mother is a psycho bitch and she wants you dead.” I nodded, “I guess you’re right, but I come bearing a gift for you to show how much I appreciate what you did.”Daniel started recording and I handed the gift box to him. I smiled, “Open it. I made it for you myself.” He smiled, “Okay.” He lifted the lid and gasped as he held the watch. He found the engraving and read it out loud with tears in his eyes. I added, “The band is St. George’s cross. He is the patro

    Ray took out a case and asked, “Now, let’s see if there is anything you can do with these.” The first one had a phoenix rising on the face. I took out the watchbands that I had already made with various materials and found the perfect match. It was a brushed leather band with a Native American phoenix symbol on either side of the face. I put the band on the watch and Ray smiled, “I knew you would have a match for this one.”The next watch had a Celtic knot on the face. I smiled, “I have the perfect match for this one.” I went to the vault and pulled out the tray of watch bands that I already had done. When I found the one I was looking for, I grinned as I picked it up. I then showed him a band of connected Celtic crosses made in silver.I attached it to the watch and I smiled, “The Celtic symbol for love and the Celtic symbol for strength.” Ray smiled, “I love that one. It’s perfect.” You really do have a real talent for this. All of these watch bands are cool.”I noticed one watch, f

    The next morning, I woke up much later than usual and Daniel had already left for work. I picked up my phone and found a text from Daniel, “Good morning, love. Sorry I had to leave early today. I wish I could be there with you today. I hope you will take it easy today. Dad is coming over this morning to keep you company. I love you. Have a good day. D” I chuckled knowing Theodore will be here to babysit me… not keep me company.I ran my hand over my belly and noticed it felt bigger. I went to the bathroom and started the shower. When I got undressed, I looked at my reflection in the mirror. My belly was noticeably bigger, but not so big that my dress wouldn’t fit. I smiled as I spoke to my babies, “You two are growing so much now. I’m so proud of both of you.”I took my shower, brushed my teeth, and brushed out my wet hair. Deciding to let my hair dry naturally that day, I walked to my closet and decided to wear a pair of leggings and a loose T-shirt. I decided that I would be making

  • The Ex-Wife He Never Knew   Chapter 94

    When we landed at home, we immediately went to Angela’s office and completed the paperwork. On video call with the other real estate agent and the previous owners, we were talking about the property and we were told of about a hidden room off of the master bedroom in case of a break-in. I looked at Daniel and smiled, “I love these people.”When the papers were signed by us all and the transfer of ownership was done, Daniel did an electronic transfer for seven hundred, fifty thousand dollars. I asked, “Angela, with all the excitement of finding the perfect house, I forgot to ask how many acres of land there is.” Angela smirked, “You now own eight hundred acres of land. Your nearest neighbor is ten miles away.”I smiled, “That is so awesome. I think we need to build a couple more guest houses for security personnel.” Angela laughed, “Hon, you have a total of four of those houses plus a gate house at the gate at the end of your driveway. That’s what happens when you make your decision ha

    When we landed at the second helipad we were greeted with a gravel walking trail. When we reached the first building, Angela smiled, “This is a barn for horses. The owners have already moved out so, if you choose this one, you will be able to move in immediately.” Daniel smiled, “We’ll keep that in mind.”As we walked into the barn, I smiled, “I love this. It’s perfect for horses.” I saw a door next to the barn stalls and found it led to the tack room. There were hooks for harnesses, reins, and lead ropes and there were three sawhorses for saddles. I added, “It looks like they knew what they were doing. There is even a mini fridge for medicines.”I walked out the other end of the barn and it led to a large corral. I smiled, “This really is a perfect set up for horses.” Daniel asked, “Do you want horses?” I nodded, “I want a ranch. I want horses, miniature horses, cattle, chickens and turkeys.” He laughed, “You don’t want sheep?”I smiled, “I would love to have sheep if I could learn h
