After the morning bath Juliet came out and dressed in a beautiful pink frock that reached below her knees. Nikolas has filled her closet with dresses that suit for every occasion including maternity dresses. When she asked why he was spending so much money on her, his reply was simple, "because I want to give you a life of dreams."
Juliet was moved with tears filled in her eyes. She couldn't ask God for a better life than she was living. It feels like she hit a jackpot to marry Nikolas.
Her belly wasn't clearly visible because she was a slim woman but the food cravings were high. Juliet smelled eggs and salsa as the door of the restaurant came into view. She closed her eyes and breathed as a feeling of nostalgia filled her nose.
It was also the moment when she felt a little homesick. Her mom used to make the b

"Don't you ever goddamn ask if I would love our babies. You understand? I already love our future kids." He brushed his hand affectionately on her belly.Juliet nodded like a school kid. "And promise me you will not leave me making your assumptions about the women in my past. You are my wife and you are the only one."Going on her tippy toes, she smacked him a kiss. "I promise. I'll never leave you, Nikolas. I love you too much." He slammed his lips on hers again and sucked all the air from her lungs.The next morning....Beads of sweat settled in her forehead. Her intake of breath was like she just ran a marathon. Juliet looked beside and gulped the bottle of water to clear the restriction that occupied her throat. She hadn't recovered from the nerve numbing night
What if Nikolas really was giving his best? Is that not what she wanted anyway—his best? Many minutes passed by after that. But they stayed the way they were.He already knew what she wanted to ask. Nikolas sighed at her silence. He released his hold from around her hair and gestured his chin to the door. “Close it. I don't want anybody to hear what I am going to say to you.” Juliet went and shut the door. She wondered what was so mysterious about the information he was going to give her. And he answered Juliet’s curiosity. “No sisters. We are four brothers.”Juliet left a soft gasp. “Isn't that what you wanted to ask? About my family?” He could read her mind like the back of his hand. Nikolas walked to the bed and sat. Juliet kept watching him. His arms crossed against his chest. He would not even look at h
Nikolas’s lips parted and then shut. His mouth opened again but nothing came out. She was pushing him. If he married her and wanted her to be with him forever, she wanted to be sure that he was serious with their relationship. Juliet did not want to be another notch on his list and didn't wish to show up on more such women like Trivia.Instead of answering, Nikolas stood. He looked away and focused his attention somewhere else, anywhere but on her. He opened the balcony door and stepped out.Juliet watched him hold onto the high metal bars outside and gaze at the ocean. He seemed alone in his thoughts, accustomed to shutting out anyone who dared to intrude on his life.Juliet wondered why he insisted on having no one there for him. Was he considering what she said, or was he waiting for her t
Nikolas was in a storm of anger the moment he heard the news. “Mollie is released?” How did that happen? Who bailed her?” He asked the questions to no-one in particular but rather spoke aloud to himself.Juliet was observing his striking annoyance from besides. To say she was worried is an understatement. She dared not ask him any questions when he was in such a state.Nikolas scurried out like a spirited sun ball saying nothing to Juliet. He grabbed the car keys on the way from the key stand and reached one of the many cars that were parked outside his mansion to take him to the office.“Nikolas, where are you going? Keep calm. Get back inside. We will see this issue is resolved.” Juliet tried to pacify, chasing him from behind.&
“I came ready with the papers. That damn cop had denied the bail. He spoke some legal nonsense to me. But don't worry. I will soon come out with a solution to your situation.” Sherlyn assured Mollie giving her a flying kiss.Meanwhile Collins called Juliet. “Please don't cut the call.” He started. “I am very sorry for everything Mollie did to you. Believe me, I had the least idea of it. When I got the report that you're pregnant, I was vanquished. And in that anger I failed to look at the authenticity of the information. But now that I know the truth, I am ready to do my bit of duty. Please tell your husband to organize another press conference. I will be there and I will tell the truth to the media. Take back your complaint and I promise, you will never see Mollie again in your life. Juliet, I have always seen you as a kind and understanding woman. I hope you're not going to ruin my impression on y
