Juice boxes were arranged in a corner. Beside them were chocolate bars and sports drinks. Fruits of various kinds and glucose sweets. All in boxes, surrounding the dining room, as if he had hired someone to raid an entire store the whole time she was sleeping.“Do you plan to open a mini mart in your mansion?” She moved forward to assess the pile of goodness before her.Even though her blood sugar had dropped to the lowest level, she wouldn’t need this amount of sugar to regulate it back to normal.“The doctor said you had low blood sugar.” He shrugged a shoulder. “I was just doing what I felt was right.” “Did the doctor recommend all of this?” She turned to the nurse on standby, hoping she would answer, but the nurse just offered her a small smile. “Are these the things I need?” Marina scoffed, shaking her head.The nurse stepped forward. “Not really, ma’am, but he insisted.” She turned to Cassian. “She’s pregnant and would not need all of this junk, Mr. Vale. Fruits and healthy foo

Cassian’s knuckles whitened as he gripped the microphone tightly. Tempted to punch his uncle’s handsome face. He took a step forward, but steeled himself. He wouldn’t give him the satisfaction of seeing him lose his control in front of the people. Violence is not an attribute of a Vale heir.He lifted the microphone to his mouth to speak, but nothing came to mind. This question would be the last thing to expect from his uncle. He never ceased to amaze him that he was a shitty bastard. Telling the people they had no picture would make their relationship doubtful. He had told so many lies today. He needed a stronger lie to back up.If he couldn’t come up with something in a few minutes, the people might never find him trustworthy again. Business partners were present, stakeholders staring at him, waiting for a picture of him and his lover. Many more people were all there watching, and this was the moment Adam chose to act like the bastard that he was. Fuck him.He lifted his chin, a fre

“What did he say to you?” He clamped his hands over hers, swaying to the side.It was difficult for Marina to keep his pace. She hadn’t had a proper dance in years, but Cassian was patient enough to let her move at her pace, waiting for her to catch up before introducing the next dance step.“We barely had a conversation before you showed up.” Her lips twitched in a smile. She didn’t have to complicate things by spilling everything Adam told her. She had a few more months with him. There was no big deal. Even though there was something he was hiding from her, it didn’t matter. What they shared wasn’t real to begin with.“I just didn’t now you had an uncle.” She spun around, falling back into his arms. Their gazes stayed on each other for a while before he heaved her back to her feet to continue her slow movements.Everyone present in the room were majorly staff members and people affiliated with the Vale Empire. They gawked at them as they moved, their steps perfectly syncing as the

The hall glowed beneath crystal chandeliers, and people of power dressed in elegant suits and floor-length designer dresses filled every corner of the room. Servers moved around with champagne trays, offering a glass to anyone who showed interest.Guests were having friendly conversations. Some swayed to the soft music drifting through the air, while others, like Marina, were simply living in the moment, taking in everything around her.This was the second time she was attending a grand event filled with the wealthy. She was gradually getting accustomed to their way of life, preparing for the day she would attain that height of greatness and roll freely in their midst without Cassian’s or anyone else’s influence. Just her on her own.Her emerald dress pooled elegantly around her as she sat, its rich green blending softly into the night’s darkness. She had met the staff member of the Vale Empire, all nice and proper people. She moved her head instinctively to the rhythm of the music hum

ONE MONTH LATERMarina stood before the mirror, her heart swelling as she cradled her baby bump. Four months in, the bump was now faintly visible. She was going to be a mother. A whole mother. Even though all of this was a mere arrangement, the thought of giving life to another being exhilarated her. Cassian hadn’t said anything else about a gender reveal, and her visits to the hospital for her routine checkups have been smooth so far.The loud beeping of her phone interrupted her train of thought. She reached for the phone, Roselyn was calling to inform her that she was waiting for her in the living room.They had planned to go on a shopping spree today, to prepare for the upcoming Vale Empire’s end-of-the-year soirée. She had tons of dresses in her closet, but Cassian insisted she shopped for more, to have options. He was spoiling her too much.She threw on a luxury floral dress from her closet and dashed out of the room.-“Our shopping will be minimal. We can’t afford to waste mo

“Mr. Vale did a great job. You should enjoy your meal.” Clara pulled out a chair for Marina. “This is the first time he’s doing this.” She whispered into her ear before leaving them alone to eat.“Thank you, Clara,” Marina said dismissively. For a long moment, her gaze was locked on the food and the varieties of fruits spread out before her.Here, she dined like royalty, with different options to choose from. It wasn’t like this back then in Collin’s house. She didn’t have this luxury, but aside from that, he never cooked for her in their five years of marriage. Never deemed it worthy to do something heart-warming for her. Now that she thought of it, how did she survive in such a loveless marriage? Giving so much, but getting so little? This man right here treated her right, but her need for control was slowly consuming her, almost blinding her to his kindness and rendering her an ingrate.“Clara told me your pregnancy hormones make you crave creamy pasta and grilled chicken all the
