Baron's POV “You're getting this twisted. What do you mean that I am the father of Prescott? I am not Prescott's father. Are you trying to raise complications or problems between Valerie and I? Just because we had a one night stand doesn't mean that I am Prescott's father.” I insinuated, my hands stuffed in my pockets.Veronica took a step closer to me, her rage burning deep into my skin.“Liar!.” She bellowed loudly and I prayed silently that her voice wouldn't wake Valerie because I would be done fur it Valerie should wake up and see me and get beloved sister having such an awkward argument at the middle of the night Veronica's face turned red with rage, her eyes blazing with fury. "Don't lie to me, Baron! Believe it or not, Prescott is our child. He came about as a result of one night of pleasure." she spat her voice low and menacing. I took a step back, my heart racing with fear. How did she find out? Did you say track me down with the DNA test or what ? I tried to keep my co

121: Seven O' Clock

Valerie's Smith's POV “Good morning, Baron.” I said, my eyes still closed as I tossed around the b d, my arm falling on Baron's side of the bed but he wants there. This side was cold insinuating that it was long since he stood up from the bed.I yawned, flinging my legs to the left side of the bed. I had to get ready for my antenatal today.I slowly sat up in bed, noticing Baron's absence. I touched his side of the bed again and his side of the bed was cold, suggesting he hadn't gotten up a while ago. It had actually been long since he got up. I yawned and stretched, feeling a bit sleepy. I rubbed the back of my palm with my hands, my eyes attempting to fall back into sleep.I had to get ready for my antenatal appointment today and as usual, Baron was supposed to accompany me.I got out of bed and began my morning routine, wondering where Baron was. I called out for him, before entering the bathroom to take a shower but there was no response. I hoped he wasn't busy with work or so

122: Antenatal Appointment

Valerie Smith's POV Antenatal appointment Our car rolled to a stop in front of St Louis hospital. Simon got out of the car, opening the door.Veronica and I walked out, exchanging a quick glance before I turned to look at Simon.“Get the SUV parked in the parking lot. Hang around. We'll be done in about twenty minutes.” I instructed, spelling out the instructions raw because I needed him to be handy in case I was done with my appointment and Baron hadn't gotten back to me.“Yes, ma'am.” He replied and entered into the car making a quick reverse.“Shall we?”. Veronica offered her hand guiding the small of my back.I nodded, taking a deep breath as we walked towards the hospital entrance. Free other patients walking in as well. Today wasn't as gloomy as the last time I came. The sun was up and it's warmth around my skin gave me hope that today was going to turn out bright.The brightness of the sunlight also gave way to the sterile glow of hospital lights.Veronica's gentle guidance

123: Trauma

Valerie Smith's POV Now I'm getting really worried. My antenatal was over and I was yet to hear from Baron. Not even a text from him to calm my nerves.“You'll need to come back next month for your last antenatal checkup on the 17th and then you'll return for….”I nodded again, staring vaguely at the nurse while her mouth moved inaudibly. Her loud jabs weren't really my concern. I was bothered by something else. The father of my child was missing. My Baron. My husband.I was tearing apart slowly.I tucked my phone back into my bag. My mind kept wandering to Baron. “Where could he be?” I muttered, more to myself than to Veronica but she heard it anyway.“Maybe he’s caught up at work or something else that requires his full attention.”!Veronica said, trying to calm me. “Don’t let your mind run away, Val. Bring it back and focus on your health. You baby. My pumpkin”.“I know I have to focus on my checkup but I can’t help it,” I admitted, my voice shaky. “It’s just… he never leaves with

124: Quinn Hospital

Valerie's POV “What!!? What do you mean, Jax? Where is the Baron? What's wrong with my husband? Give him the freaking phone.” I seethed, immediately touching my stomach as I got a sharp pain pierce through my belly.“!!.” I let out a yell.Veronica guided me around the small of my back, her little taps soft and soothing.“Take a deep breath.” She urged me.I began to take a deep breath, my pain not getting any better.Jax’s voice stayed calm on the line. “Mrs Smith, are you okay? Please, you need to stay calm. Mr Baron needs you to remain calm. Everything is fine. He was just delayed, but he asked me to tell you he’s coming straight to Quinn’s Hospital for something very important. He wants you to say meet him there. He wants to be with you now.”My hand pressed harder against my stomach as the pain sharpened. I didn't know what was wrong with me but I could tell that my baby was having a hard time, maybe I was stressing it too much with worries about Baron. I took another deep bre

125: Bonding Time

Valerie Smith's POV “What happened Baron? Why did you leave all of a sudden in the early hours of the morning without telling me or even having breakfast?.” I asked Baron my arms folded in slight anger We were back at home and both in our room.knew this was the time to clarify the air.Baron sighed deeply, running his hand through his messy hair before sitting on the edge of the bed. “Val, I didn’t mean to leave like that. I just didn’t want to disturb you because I have somewhere important to go and besides you were sleeping so peacefully and I thought it was better not to wake you.”I frowned, my arms still folded. “That’s no excuse, Baron. You scared the living daylight out of me. I thought something terrible had happened. You left at seven in the morning. That's too early.He looked up at me, guilt in his eyes. “I’m sorry, Val. I only wanted to keep you and the baby safe. I didn’t want you stressing over me.”My heart softened slowly.“Even though you cared. Now I was so worried

126: Words Vs. Acrion

Veronica's POV “Has there been any news on Monica's killer yet?”. I asked Valerie the moment I sensed that Baron wasn't at home.Valerie shrugged looking at me over her shoulder.“Nothing yet and it's frustrating.”Valerie dropped the spoon she was holding and leaned against the counter with a tired sigh. “The private investigators, Pete keep saying he is still looking into it and investigating, but days are passing and still no answers, the press is on Baron's neck. Monica's family demands an answer or an explanation. Someone responsible for their daughter’s death.”she muttered, her brows drawn together. I walked closer, lowering my voice. “It doesn’t make sense, Valerie. Monica’s death wasn’t an accident it was like someone wanted her gone and now your company will.be blamed for it Does this make any sense? Your enemies are really after you They want to bring the company down and Baron ain't doing nothing about it.”Valerie’s eyes darkened as she rubbed her temple slowly. “You

127: The Thin Line

Veronica's POV“What!? What do you mean by that question, Vee?.” Valerie’s voice rose, her eyes narrowing as she glared at me like she would devour me if she had fangs and claws“What!? What do you mean by that question, Vee?”he snapped again, clearly offended. I met her gaze without flinching, folding my arms across my chest. “Exactly what you heard, Valerie. How long will you keep covering up for Baron? How long will you keep pretending everything is fine when it’s not?” I asked firmly, my tone sharp.She shook her head quickly, anger mixing with confusion. “You’re crossing the line, Veronica. Baron is my husband, not yours. Don’t question my loyalty to him. I won’t tolerate that.”I smirked, leaning closer so she could feel the weight of my words. “Loyalty? Valerie, there’s a thin line between loyalty and foolishness. You keep defending him while your world crumbles down piece by piece. Open your eyes! Baron isn’t saving you, he’s dragging you down. You are an independent woman.

128: Apology

Veronica's POV “ I am so sorry, Val. I pushed things too far. I shouldn't have given you such nasty talks about your relationship and life with Baron but I was only being a loving sister and…”I stopped passing, thinking about what I just said. No. I wasn't going to say that. I wasn't at fault and she had to learn not to get on my nerves.“No. Try something else, Veronica.” I told myself.Now I was back in the comfortable confinement of my room and looking back, I hated how the conversation had turned out. I wasn't expecting it to turn out into a heated argument, In fact all I wanted was to get Valerie to listen to me, believe without doubting but ugh!!!..... She is just too stubborn.I sank into my bed, hugging a pillow tight. My mind replays every word, every glare, every angry sigh. Valerie just didn’t get it. Why is she so blind to these things?I wasn’t her enemy technically but literally I was. I needed to have Baron to myself and be my only stopping block.I had to make her

129: Apology 2

Veronica's POV “I am grateful we got to reconcile,” I said softly, watching Valerie’s face for any crack in her guard. Watching to see her tensed face loosen a bit.She gave me a small nod, her lips pressed together like she wasn’t sure if she believed me or not. Inside, I was laughing not because I didn't care for my sister but because she had been fooled so I could take back what I lost.Reconciliation? No. This was not reconciliation. This was me acting sweet so she could lower her guard.I had to do this to get Baron because I knew that getting Baron would make me have possession of the company since he was the CEO. I knew I wasn't done yet, not even close not until I had gotten what I wanted Baron was still hers, the company still under their control, and Prescott still without his father. I had to make my family happy by making us complete at all costs.My smile was calm, but my heart yielded something else.“Thank you, Val. You won’t regret this.Valerie stood up slowly, he
