“I love this surprise,” Declan said, smiling widely as he got up from his place to greet me.“I thought we could have lunch together,” I said, wrapping my arms around him. He wasted no time and in a matter of seconds, he engulfed me in his embrace, just like the way I liked. I wondered if I had ever told him how he always placed one hand on my back and the other on the back of my head.I adored the way he gave my body a gentle squeeze, and how I felt my cheeks get squished against the crook of his neck. It made me feel warm and protected, like nothing would ever touch me as long as I was that close to him. “And there’s something I want to talk to you about,” I added when we pulled apart.“Is everything okay?” He frowned, concern coating his voice.“Yeah.” I quickly nodded because there was really nothing to worry about; however, since he was going to sign the collaboration deal with the CEO of Artland, I wanted him to know that I was the owner of this company. I didn’t know if that

When I felt that Declan was taking too long, I got up from my seat and walked to the door. If it was a visitor, Declan would have already let them in by now.I found him talking to a woman I had never seen before, and she was pregnant. One look at Declan told me that he was tense. Something felt wrong.“Is everything okay?” I asked as I stood beside him and put my hand on his back.He looked at me, and the fear I saw in his eyes made my blood run cold. Why was he scared?“You must be Kendra,” the pregnant girl said, looking at me.“Who are you?” I asked her.“I’m someone he slept with,” she said, and I did my best to remain unfazed by her words. “And now I’m pregnant with his baby.” Her words took me by surprise, not expecting her to be pregnant with his baby.“I didn’t cheat on you.” His words were rather quick as his eyes fell on me.“I know.” My eyes met his. It didn’t take a genius to put two and two together. She looked like she was at least five months pregnant, and we hadn’t be

“I guess you were right,” Declan said, looking at me.We were currently in a café near the lab, waiting for Claire to show up to get the tests done, but she was nowhere to be found. Her phone was off, or maybe she blocked us.When we met her four days ago, I had a strong feeling that she was lying. She wanted something out of us, but we weren’t fools. We weren’t going to take her word for it. It was stupid of her to think that we were going to believe anything she said without trying to find out whether she was lying or not.“She probably wanted money out of you, Declan,” I told him, reaching for his hand.“I need to find out why she did what she did,” he muttered, clenching his hand that wasn’t holding mine.“And we will, but right now, let’s just forget everything and leave. It’s been two hours. Her phone is off, and she hasn’t replied to our messages since yesterday,” I told him. He stayed silent for a couple of seconds before nodding.Wanting to take his mind off of everything, I

I was nervous, yet excited. Tonight, I was going to propose to her. When we first got married, I didn’t get the chance to do things right. I didn’t give her everything she deserved, but since I had the chance to do things differently, I decided to give her everything that had once been snatched from her.I had arranged a dinner date for us tonight at a rooftop that overlooked the beach. Our date tonight would be under the stars with a beach view. I wanted to bring together everything she liked.“Oh my God, Declan. This is perfect,” she exclaimed in a soft tone as she looked around her. The rooftop was designed with fairy lights and flowers. Soft music filled the atmosphere, giving the place a more romantic vibe.I silently hoped that I didn’t look as nervous as I felt because I didn’t want her to suspect anything. For the past few days, I had been working on perfecting this date. I asked Tia and Joelle about all her preferences and if she had ever talked about her dream proposal. I to

“Yeah, maybe we can d­—” I stopped mid-sentence when I saw Declan leaning against the door in the hallway, resting his head against the wall. “Jo, I’ll call you later.” I quickly hung up with my best friend when I saw the position Declan was in.I walked over to my fiancé and placed my hand on his shoulder. “What’s going on?” I asked softly.“I don’t know.” His voice was too low. I could barely hear him. “I was on my way to our room, and suddenly, everything started spinning. My head also hurts.”“Let’s get you to our bedroom,” I told him. I wrapped his arm around my shoulders and took him to our bedroom. I helped him lie down on the bed and sat down beside him. “I’m booking you an appointment, and that’s final.”Lana told me that he had a terrible headache a few days ago when she went to see him in the company to review some documents, and now he was unable to open his eyes due to the pain.“Maybe I’m just exhausted,” he argued, but his tone wasn’t the strong and confident one I was
