2026-06-28 14:35:49Before all else, Simone went to the cemetery. She knelt in front of her mother’s grave, wept as she told her everything, and asked for her guidance.
“Hello, mom. It’s been a while, huh? I told you before that Will and I are now a thing, right? Well, I have reason to believe that I might be pregnant, though I truly hope it’s all in my head. I wonder how you would have felt had you been here in these times. Would you have approved of us or on the con

It wasn’t long before Simone’s ring caught the attention of one of the employees, who had come bearing important documents from the finance department.His cold assessment of Simone didn’t go unnoticed, and the way his smile all but turned predatory before he spoke unsettled her in more ways than one.“That’s a beautiful ring you have there,” the forty year old man let out. “I would advise you against wearing it publicly, unless you want to be attacked, that is… Many people would kill for a fraction of that money.”“I bet,” Simone’s smile remained chilly as she regarded him levelly, as if daring him to try something.“Good thing she has bodyguards shadowing her everywhere she goes then,” Katie let out in a tone that dripped with both sarcasm and menace, as she glared daggers at the man.He immediately straightened up and rolled his eyes, before muttering something that went along the lines of, “Golddiggers sure have it easy.”“You would know best, Mr Kale,” Simone drawled, her eyes co

Simone watched as Katie all but ran away from William’s office. And while the devil himself wasn’t on her tail, she could guess that he hadn’t been all that pleasant with her.Truth be told, she wasn’t too eager to hear what the new recruit had to say, but she feigned interest while the other woman emptied her sac, “I don’t understand what’s wrong with my coffee.”She hiccupped and soon sat down at the new desk next to Simone’s.Sniffling, she soon went on, “He said and I quote: “I only drink Simone’s.” even though I told him that I made it exactly like yours.”“It has nothing to do with your coffee,” Simone offered her a small smile that was meant to reassure her.“What?” Katie looked and sounded dumbfounded to say the least.“How do I explain this to you?” She heaved a sigh as she seriously contemplated telling her their history with spiked drinks.“Please do,” she nodded eagerly at her, her eyes glassy but shining with renewed hope nonetheless.“You know that William and I are toge

Simone couldn’t believe her eyes when William dropped to one knee, began to say all those tear-inducing words, and proposed. When she was done hugging him, he scooped her up in his arms, and she giggled shyly in response.Oh heavens, how she loved him!She sometimes believed she didn’t deserve him. Hell, she was convinced he was what dreams were made of, and not just wet dreams.She knew the effect he had on her should be ill*gal, but the knowledge didn’t help her evade his feverish touches. On the contrary, she was as eager for completion as he was, the time spent away doing her more harm than good.Simone couldn’t help but breathe out his name against his lips, “Will,” he was still carrying her, almost effortlessly, making a beeline to the cottage where she was staying. “I still can't believe this… you being okay with this, this pregnancy is such a s

William and Simone went to the nearby grill, and he was no closer now than he had been 1 hour ago, when he finally reached the cottage, to knowing what was wrong. Indeed, he had no clue why Simone wanted some time away. Had he messed up somewhere down the line?If he had, she sure was acting as if everything was cool between them, and that only fueled his confusion some more.He tried to keep a calm, even voice when he asked, “Are you going to tell me what’s wrong?”“Nothing really,” she attempted to brush it off, her eyes not meeting his, her hand rising to rearrange a lock of her hair.“If nothing sends you running for the hills, then I am not sure who you are,” he drawled, only half jokingly.Her gaze focused on him at long last, and he could see confusion swimming in the depths of her green eyes.“Well, I am Simone Presco

I told you before that Will and I are now a thing, right? Well, I have reason to believe that I might be pregnant, though I truly hope it’s all in my head. I wonder how you would have felt had you been here in these times. Would you have approved of us or on the contrary given us the stink eye and the cold shoulder?” She paused after for a moment, sniffling and doing her best to wipe away the tears that refused to stop.“Heavens, how I wish you were here! But you’re not, and cemetery visits kill me each time, but I had to see you. I had to tell you.” She inhaled deeply, trying to steel herself, so she would leave. “I love you mom. And I hope that wherever you might be, I’m making you proud.”

Simone hadn’t hesitated to seek out Colette, under the pretense of making-up for their previous lost time when they went to the spa.Her security detail remained at another table, their presence looming, almost threatening, and Simone felt like she could barely breathe properly.Out of nervousness, she had arrived twenty minutes early, and thus she waited. Doing so, she texted her best friend.Don’t freak out. Buy 3 pregnancy tests sweetie.Simone looked at the text, and though she didn’t fear judgment as much as before, she still hesitated for a moment there before hitting send.Colette’s response was a devil emoji, and Simone felt herself lighten up immediately. She sipped on her lemon juice, which served to suppress the nausea bubbling up inside her, and simply waited.Before long, Colette was approaching the table where Simone was, with slow cal

Stepping into her apartment felt like a new experience to Simone... A new frightening experience, and she stood frozen at the door, unable to take a step forward, yet backing off wasn’t an option.William squeezed her hand reassuringly, and it was all she could do to of

The set of keys Mrs Atkins had was nowhere in sight, and that explained her shock but also her frightened face.While William sported a grim expression, Simone tried to reassure her, “You might have just misplaced them, Mrs Atkins.”“I n

The reporters that were swarming the entrance to the underground parking lot of the company’s building were no joke. It was obvious that the press conference’s revelations had been nothing short of extraordinary.William, having thought ahead of time, had hired se

It was Sunday morning when William received a call from his uncle. He naturally expected a good berating, and maybe some lamenting too… And he knew his uncle would deliver, given the chance.“How could you ruin everything your father worked for?” He bellowe
