What I heard resounded to my ears. It caught my attention hearing her talk so imperious. I lifted my gaze and there was the woman I didn't want to see around standing in front of Jade in her red body-hugging mini-dress. I was afraid her boobies would explode in just a single heavy breath and her heels would strip in just a single step. It was too sexy for someone to round in such a surrounding. She should be in a club in that kind of wardrobe. I thought. "Miss Olga, I couldn't find your name in Mr. Ford's appointments for today," Jade maintained a calm voice although I could sense the displease on her face in front of Olga. "I don't have an appointment with him but this is urgent," she was domineering trying to convince Jade of her purpose of visit. "I'm so sorry Miss but we won't allow people without scheduled meetings with Mr. Ford," Jade stayed insistent with the rules. However, Olga's tone was overbearing threatening to make a scene if she will continue to push her out of the

"Excuse me, who are you?" Meadow frowned and even told her that she might get the wrong room. Annoyingly, Meadow was ignored. "Hi Miss Ciara Lewis!" she uttered with disgust in her tone. Olga in her usual body-hugging wardrobe was in front of us covered in anger. I didn't know how she found out my full name but clearly, she wasn't happy about it. I closed my eyes and heaved a deep breath."What do you want, Olga?" I responded wearily like I got no interest in talking to her. I sighted Meadow narrowed her eyes and it was clear she got a hint that something was wrong."Don't act like you don't know why I am here! I discovered your true identity!" she pointed her finger at me and her madness went to a high-intensity level. "Dad is your biological father! You hate him that's why you are doing everything to push us into bankruptcy!" she accused me of the thing and my blood rose to the extent that I wanted to slap her. How dare she say that! It was them who were just trying to get a busin

When I opened my eyes, I felt so worn out. I looked around and realized I was on a hospital bed. "Ciara, you're awake!" I furrowed because it was Iris who stood up from a couch a few meters from me. "How are you feeling? Any pain?" she asked worriedly. I wondered what happened to me to wake up in a medical institution. "The blood!" I recalled and my heart hammered faster."What time is it?" I asked lowly. She told me it was already 7 in the evening. I got puzzled as to why she stayed with me for so long. She should have been with her mother."I will call Mr. Ford. He is just outside speaking to a police officer," she informed me that an investigation is ongoing. Authorities were involved to resolve the case properly. "What's the matter with me, Iris?" I knitted my brow, however, she refused to answer my question. She steered away and told me that Denver was reviewing the CCTV footage of the fight we had. I blew a long breath remembering such an appalling dispute. "What happened to

Meadow and Iris stopped talking and shifted to me. Meadow stepped closer to my bed with a raised brow. He crossed her arms to her chest and stared seriously at me. "If I hadn't called Denver for a business matter, I wouldn't know you're in the hospital," She acted like it was my fault for not informing her about what happened. "I didn't want to disturb you because all I know you were in Germany," I told her I didn't want her to worry about me."Ciara, I am your friend. I don't want to be the last person to know that you are in trouble," she whined and I understood her reason."I'm sorry, okay?" I mumbled and she calmed down. She sat down on my bed and held my hand. "Congratulations!" finally, she smiled and was genuinely happy for me. "Oh, my godchild, hold on," she decided to be a godmother without even asking me. She tapped my belly and I was emotional again."I flew back last night after I learned you were hospitalized," she said and I felt so touched by her gesture. I never ima

Denver together with the family extended our stay on the yacht indefinitely. We wanted to indulge more in relaxation after our enervated yet ecstatic and blissful wedding ceremony. We couldn't fly to other places to celebrate our honeymoon because it was too risky for me so we decided that having it on the yacht was the best idea."Denver, I think we should leave by tomorrow," I spoke to him because staying for another day would cost us a fortune. I thought it wasn't reasonable to waste money on such a luxurious staycation while I was only lying and sitting around. Although Catie was having the best days of her life in the jacuzzi as well as with her coloring activity in the middle of the ocean, it was way overboard. "Baby, we can stay here for a year if you want," he was smiling meaningfully and I furrowed my brows in return."Are you crazy?" I couldn't believe he would be willing to spend a such hefty amount of money for us. "This yacht cost an arm and a leg so I'm afraid we need
