My feet move of their own volition as I pace the bedroom, anxiety clawing at my insides like a caged animal. My nails dig into my palms, my heart hammering against my ribs with every step. The thick air in the room does nothing to soothe me, nor does the dim glow of the bedside lamp casting long, eerie shadows across the cream-colored walls.I had begged that old fart, Mr. Thompson, to convince Deric to hand over Ames Finances to him. With the big merger looming just weeks away, we didn’t stand a chance without it. And Deric—that lovesick fool—wasn't listening to me. Not one damn bit.The idiot had only been discharged from the hospital a few days ago, and what did I get for all my trouble? A thank-you? A nod of appreciation? No. The only thing I received was him shoving me to the ground like a worthless piece of trash, his venomous eyes burning through mine as he rained down insults on me in front of the entire hospital staff.It’s okay. So maybe he’s still angry with me. That’s fine

[Arella]"That’s the last of it!"My mother-in-law cheers, dropping a cute lemon plushie into the baby crib.I take a step back, surveying the nursery. It looks… warm. Lived-in. The soft pastel colors, the delicate curtains framing the windows, the plush toys arranged neatly—it doesn’t feel like something out of a magazine. It feels like home."This was hard work," Ava grumbles, rubbing her tired eyes. But despite her exhaustion, there’s a glow on her face—a happiness she can’t quite hide.I smirk, arms folding across my chest. "Well, after all that lemon pie you ate for dessert, you deserve to burn off some energy."I tap her nose playfully.

Ever since we returned from my antenatal appointment today, she’s been sticking close, helping me add final touches to the baby’s room.Lincoln had offered to hire designers, but I wanted to do it mysel

[Arella]I think this is karma finally biting back at me.Maybe the universe took one look at my life and thought, You know what? She’s had it too easy. Let’s spice things up with some unwanted drama.I mean, I was stupid enough to stop Zach and the others from following me to the office. But in my defense, it’s just the office. Everyone here is family—mostly. It’s not like I expected to be cornered like a damn criminal for the second time in what… weeks? Months? Who’s even counting at this point? All I know is my patience is dangling by a thread, and my teeth grind as I spit out a sharp, deadly,“Move. Out. Of. The. Way.”And would you believe it? He doesn’t.Nope. Instead, he has the audacity to thrust a bouquet into my unwilling arms, as if a couple of pretty flowers will magically erase everything.

A slow smile tugs at my lips."Hi," I murmur, stepping forward and pulling her into my embrace. My arm encircles her waist, cradling our child as I watch the way her body instinctively melts against mine."Oh, thank goodness you're fine!" she exclaims, spinning around to cup my cheeks.
