EsmePower was good, I reconfirmed that when the management of the hospital all stood in front of the large board room, waiting for me.Rita had briefed Todd about what had happened from the hospital and he was not left out of the shock." You mean she's carrying six whole babies!" he asked while Rita nodded in response." If it gets out or it's let out to the news you'll be a hit," he said and I nodded, 'a hit' I didn't want that, that was why I needed to talk with the hospital's board of management.Todd walked beside me with Rita as we all headed into the meeting room.I sat up from the position I was and looked at all of them before clearing my throat to speak up."I'm Esme Ames, the leading lawyer of Ergo, and I've no other reason to call you all here than to make you sign an agreement," I said taking account of how their demeanor changed at the mention of the leading lawyer of Ergo." I'm currently eight weeks pregnant and in some months I'll be delivering my babies," I said enu

Cassian's POVIt was all futile, I'd combed the entire country in search of Esme Ames To no avail.The secretary had gone to her step-sister, and the cheating boyfriend, but they weren't able to provide any information on her whereabouts.The secretary had reported to me the rude reception he was given by them both." Have their details sent to me, have both of them fired from wherever they work, and let them learn the hard way, ban any company from hiring them," I said and went back to being disorganized.For the first time in years, I'd never felt bad about treating Enemies, hacking, and being the No 1 of a particular organization." I'll look for her myself," I said and stood up from the office to drive home." Mr Cassian, the car key, I'll drive you home," he said while walking towards me." I'll drive myself, you can end the day's work," I said but he insisted." Leave me alone," I said this time harder almost with a growl.He gave a curt bow and turned to leave after me.I took

Esme I sat on the couch in the office, my legs held by Todd as he sat opposite me, rubbing his hands through my ankle. I'd been constantly nagged by him, and I had no words to refute, both Rita and him had been in my neck to stay home but I was adamant, and then the scenario at the reception had left me short of words. " I'm sorry," I muttered softly as his hands worked their way on my ankle. " Esme," he called. " I know you've told me to stay home, to rest but I just cannot stay home, I'd die of boredom, and even if there is some trouble outside, I can't just stay in," I said trying to salvage the situation. " You could have been more injured if I hadn't come in at that moment, you're pregnant Esme for goodness sake," he said rubbing tighter on my ankle. I scrunched my face in discomfort before he slowly relaxed his grip on it " I'll take more caution and make sure I take care of myself, I'll eat well and not get into fights," I rambled to him. " That's better, or else if an

Esme"Miss Esme, I..I..I'm sorry, but can you please spare me," he pleaded with his hand shaking at the steering wheel."I have a family and my kids would have to be orphans if anything were to happen to me," he begged."I have a family too you know, when you came to the car lot, I already knew that you weren't from Todd, but I complied with you, without complaints, do you know why? because I'm pregnant with six fucking babies and I couldn't put them in danger, I've Rita with me as well and I chose to follow you, I wasn't stupid, I had them to live for," I retorted." Don't stress Esme, he isn't worth it," Rita said holding my hand in hers." You could have told me from the onset and whatever had brought you here, you Instead continued to lead me on, to the prey of those evil men, and do what, get me killed!" I yelled at his face, infuriated at the sudden turn of events." You weren't forced were you, your family wasn't put in danger were they?" I asked and he nodded with tears drool

Todd " Mr. Todd," the guard beside me called, pulling my attention to the buzz of the phone opposite me. " Let it be, it can't be anything urgent," I said and went back to reading the files of the company's new merger. The secretary had come in, still with the pen in her hand, she was unaware of the fact that she had been busted. " Good day sir," she greeted and I nodded in response. " Is there anything you'd like me or want me to do for you," she asked standing in front of me. I gave no reply to her words and Instead let her stand until I was ready to let her go. Let her punishment for intentionally betraying and being a spy on me come early. "If there's nothing I can do at the moment, how about I come back some time later," she said and turned to leave.
