Chapter 58 "You can't tell me to stop acting, Dad. I can't do that," She protested when Mr. Arnaldo told her to stop her ongoing project for now and focus on getting better. "What are you saying, Aliyah? Can't you see your life is on the line?" He asked, and she shook her head. "I told you that I'm going to be fine, trust me, Dad. I will be fine. It's not about the stress, but..." "I know it's not about the stress, but you still need to rest. You are pregnant, and you can't keep stressing yourself like that. You need some time for yourself and the baby," He tried to make her see reasons she should agree to him, but she wasn't even ready for that. This was one of the reasons she has been holding back. She knew that she was eventually going to be forced to stop everything she was doing and focus on herself which was the last thing she wanted. "Daddy, I don't want to. I told you that I'm really fine. Please believe me," She said once again, but he wasn't ready to
Chapter 59 One week later The bathroom door opened and Aliyah walked out wearing her white robe. It was finally the day she was going to be announced as the daughter of the billionaire, and the CEO of Orange entertainment industry. Everybody will finally know who her father was. She took her time to do her usual skincare routine, and once she was done, she went to her closet where she picked out the white suit she bought the last few days, and soon, she got dressed. Once she was done, she finally left her room, not after picking up her white handbag to match her dress. Tate was already waiting for her in the living room, so she soon joined him and the drive to the company started. "Wow! You look extremely pretty. I'm so jealous of you," Tate whined as he glanced at her through the rear mirror, and she rolled her eyes. "You should find something else to say. I'm used to that already," She smirked at him, and he scoffed. "Whatever! So, have you spoken to yo
Chapter 60 It was finally the day for the party, and Tate drove Aliyah there. By the time they arrived at Mr. Arnaldo's villa, the place was already filled with prestigious guests. The people present were of high caliber. She was wearing a long pink strapless gown that had a flower on its chest. She had a pair of pink heels on, her hair was styled simply with the rest falling freely down her shoulders, and she had light makeup on. Walking beside her was Tate, looking all dolled up in his black suit and purple shirt. His hair was styled with some strands on his forehead. He had his hands locked with Aliyah's. He was her partner for tonight. "I don't feel comfortable here," She complained as they walked down the hall, waving at the people that kept waving at her. "You'll soon be out of here, so relax," He whispered to her, and she nodded her head. "Oh, look who we have here. You are finally here. I was about to call you," Mr. Arnaldo said as he walked up to them.
Chapter 61 She bit her bottom lip as she stared into space. Of course, she was aware that the bitch was here to get her pissed, and even though she didn't want to get affected, it was obviously getting her pissed. "Terrible acting skill?" She smirked as she turned to face her. "Yes. You are..." "I'm glad I have a Father to help me get the role even with my terrible acting. You should get your Dad to help you too since your acting is so bad that you can't even secure the role of a maid for yourself," She smirked at her as she dropped the glass she was holding, on the table in front of them, and Nina scoffed angrily. "You!" "I don't have time to spare you, Nina. You are better off being a mistress. I thought Knox was going to marry you right away, but turns out he doesn't love you enough to want to marry you as his wife. You should walk on yourself and be worthy of being married. Don't go around wasting your time on unnecessary things," She smirked at Nina
Chapter 62 "She is out of danger now," The doctor said to Knox and Tate after he was done treating her, and they sighed in relief. "Can I see you, Mr. Daniel?" The doctor turned to Knox and said. "Alright. I'll be back," He said to Tate before he finally left with the doctor. Sitting on the edge of the bed, Tate took her hand and squeezed it gently as he stared at her pale face. She was fast asleep after the doctor gave her two injections. "You'll be fine," Tate whispered as he placed her palm on his cheeks. The sound of his ringing phone pulled his attention, and he dropped her hand gently beside her before he picked up his phone and swipe the answer button. "Hello, Sir," He said on the phone as soon as he swiped the answer button. The caller was Mr. Arnaldo. "How is she now?" The man's worried voice sounded from the other end. He couldn't have left the party since it was still ongoing, and Tate already told him that he was going to handle everything
Chapter 63 "Wait, what! Pregnant? You mean your wife is pregnant?" Mason's eyes narrowed in shock as he watched Knox sink into the couch, rubbing his fingers on his forehead. "Bro, ex-wife! Stop giving me hope by calling her my wife. She is fucking pregnant, and I don't know what to feel or how to react to it. Should I be happy, sad, or scared? Ugh! I think I'm going crazy," He whined as he sank his fingers into his hair and ruffled it. "What should I do? Will she forgive me? Will she come back to me now that she's pregnant? What should I do to that man lurking around her? Wait! She is now the daughter of the wealthiest man in the country. Wow! I think I'm doomed. Nothing is working in my favor, and I think I'm going to die soon," He rambled on, while Mason rolled his eyes. "Look at me, Mason. It feels like the whole world is against me at this point. That bitch is in my house, and my reputation is going to be at stake if she should say a word to the media abou
Chapter 64 The pain seemed to have been persisting for days now, and Aliyah couldn't even go to the office. Everything has not been working out in her favor, and she may have to eventually do what she didn't want to do. Laying on the bed and staring up at the ceiling after she woke up this morning, tears dropped from the corner of her eyes as the thought of everything nibbled at her. With all the strength left in her, she managed to sit up on the bed, but groaned painfully and squeezed her face when she felt her abdomen contracted, causing the excruciating pain again. After she left the doctor's house a few days ago, she has been staying with her dad and his wife. She dragged herself into the bathroom, and as she stared at her disorganized reflection in the mirror, she sighed again and ran her fingers through her hair. She wished there was something she could do about this without having to do what the doctor said, but there was no alternative. She has tried to se
Chapter 65"Get him out here this minute!" Rebecca, Aliyah's mom tried to break past the security. For the last few days, she has been doing her investigation and she finally found where Arnaldo was living."You can't go inside, woman. You need to have an appointment with the boss..." Hearing this from the security made her heart wrench in pain, and she clenched her fingers as tears streamed down her cheeks. She wasn't here to see that man that took away everything from her, instead, she was here to see her daughter and explain everything to her. It was never her fault that everything happened, she never meant to keep it a secret from her, but will she even listen to her later?She watched as the security closed the gate and locked it on her, and she broke down in tears as she stared at it. "I am not leaving here until I see my daughter. I won't leave here until I see my Aliyah," She yelled before she broke down in tears. She dragged her feet toward the gate and sat on the ground, le
