Xavier POV:The ringing doorbell made me cause my brows to dip in confusion. There is no way it is Ana and I wasn't expecting any guests either. With a puzzled mind, I went to open the door, just to find Zayn standing there.Upon seeing me, he waved his hand. "What are you doing here?" I immediately asked."Hello to you too, brother." He grinned as he said. I stepped out of the way and let him come in. "Mom sent me. She gave, I guess, supplements for Ana." He placed the bag on the counter and turned towards me. "I hope I am not spoiling the weekend of the newlyweds." He leaned back on the counter and crossed his legs in a way that one of his ankles was resting against the other."She is not home." I plainly said. "Ohh." His mouth turned into an O. "For whom did she ditch you on a Sunday?" He cocked a brow and I really want to get rid of that smugness on his face. I rolled my eyes at him and whipped a cup of coffee. "She went with Beth." I don't know why I needed to tell him all thes

Anastasia POV:I sat in the conference room, another layer of thickness was added to the air, my teeth clenched tightly and I glared at the man who had the audacity to give me a suggestion like that. "Mr. Matt, are you saying that I should buy the raw material from the black market?" My fingers dug into the skin so hard that I was surprised that they didn't start bleeding."Yes, considering your situation... This is the best option. I don't have enough stash to sign a deal with you. Secondly, you are well aware of how rare those are. You won't be able to buy them with the local dealers." He arrogantly added. "Wow, great." I sarcastically said, "You really think that I am dumb, don't you?" I shot laser beams at him, "You want me to get them from the black market, so later there can be rumors about how I got my hands on them and it wouldn't even take 24 hours for the stocks to hit rock bottom and I will be bankrupt in the blink of an eye." I explained it to him. He was trying to get un

Anastasia POV:I was relaxing at home, without any worries and I seriously cursed that moment, in which I decided to surf on the internet and found news about myself. I haven't recovered from the shock yet, that my phone started to ring non stop. Samuel, Sarah, Ryan, his parents, my parents and even Beth. They all tried to get to me but I couldn't talk with anyone. After a while, they all got tired and gave me a break but Ryan is one persistent man. He never stopped calling me. My thoughts were a mess and my body trembled because of the fear. It wouldn't have been so bad if they didn't say that I am plagiarising someone else's work. This is my blood and sweat. Even when my back is killing me, all I can think about is sitting in the middle of the night and working on my drafts. 'An amateur brand, Stones, stole the designs from T-brand. It is also said that the gemstones and diamonds used in the designs of Stones are brought from the black market.'My blood was boiling at the accusati

Anastasia POV:I sat in the conference room, listening to the directors ramble about how screwed I am. "Miss. Logan, you are being lax. This isn't good. You have to make a strategy and implement it. Otherwise, I fear that Stones is going to face bankruptcy in a day." The finance director stated the obvious.The stock price has declined to more than 50% in a day and the bank is breathing on my neck. Furthermore, Ryan is my biggest investor but he didn't say a word regarding that. 'I don't care what happens to my money.' His words echoed in my head. He said that when I told him that I will return every penny. I know the man is loud and floating in money, still I am feeling really bad. I can't be a failure. I sighed in exhaustion.The past night has been a hell. I stayed in my office and Ryan was with me too. He forced me to take a nap and I am really grateful for that. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to even sit here. "You have to say something. How will we cope up with the damage? What

Anastasia POV:I opened my eyes and glanced around the room, the drapes were stopping the sunlight and the ambience was so cozy that I never want to step out of the bed. "You up, sleeping beauty?" His gravelly voice hit me and I didn’t know until he spoke that he is also hers. I tilted my head to look at him, he had taken off the coat but was still dressed in formal clothes. His hair was in place and he looked as sexy as ever.I smiled and forced myself to sit, "Yeah. What time is it?" I stifled a yawn as I asked. "1 pm." He carelessly said. "Wait, what!" I was shocked. I can't believe that I slept more than 4 hours. "Oh my God. Why didn't you wake me up?" There was so much that I needed to do. Sleeping for so long is a luxury which I can't afford, at least not now."Calm down." Ryan said, "I know you are busy but don't forget how important it is for you to rest. I can't let you neglect your health." He reminded me, my hand immediately went to touch the belly. I am such a bad mother
