The Perfect Life Cracks

Bella Pov"You think love is enough," Damian said.I looked at him from across the table. We were eating dinner and I thought we were going to celebrate my new Vogue contract but instead, he wanted to talk about this again."Love is enough," I said."No it's not," he said and he put down his fork. "We have been married for two years Bella. Two whole years and you still don't want kids.""I never said I don't want them," I told him. "I just said I'm not ready yet.""When will you be ready?" he asked. "When you're thirty? Forty? Never?"I felt my chest get tight. I hated when he talked to me like this. Like I was doing something wrong just because I wanted to wait."Why is this so important to you?" I asked."Because I built a company from nothing," he said and he stood up and walked to the window. "I worked my whole life to create something and I need someone to give it to when I die. I need a son or a daughter who can take over. That's what legacy means Bella.""So this is about your

Pressure from Every Side

Bella Pov "One hundred and fifty thousand dollars."That's what Dr Martinez said when we went back to see her. I watched Damian's face go completely white."For one round of IVF," she continued and she pushed some papers across her desk. "And sometimes it takes multiple rounds before it works."I felt sick. Not because of the needles or hormones she was talking about but because I could see Damian shutting down right in front of me."Can we have a minute alone?" Damian asked."Of course," Dr. Martinez said and she left the room.As soon as she closed the door Damian stood up and started walking back and forth. He only did that when something was really bad."Damian talk to me," I said."One hundred and fifty thousand," he said again and he laughed but it wasn't a happy laugh. "Do you know how much money I lost last quarter?""No," I said."Three million dollars," he said and he stopped walking. "Three million Bella. The company is falling apart. Clients are leaving, deals are falling

The Woman in Red Heels

Damian PovI didn't mean to stare at her but I couldn't help it.Karen Tyler walked into my office on Monday morning wearing a tight black skirt and a white shirt. I knew right away that hiring her was either the best decision I ever made or the worst."Mr Roberts?" she said and her voice was smooth and nice. "I'm Karen. Your new secretary."I stood up and shook her hand. When our hands touched I felt something weird in my chest."Call me Damian," I said. "No need to be formal.""Damian," she said and she smiled. She had really white teeth. "Thank you for this job. I promise I won't let you down.""I hope not," I said and I pointed to the chair. "Sit down and I'll explain everything."She sat and crossed her legs and I tried really hard not to look at her legs but I did anyway. I cleared my throat and started explaining how messed up the company was."So basically everything is falling apart," I said after talking for like twenty minutes. "I'm losing money and clients and I need some

The Night That Shouldn't Exist

Bella Pov "You look really beautiful tonight," Damian said as we walked into the club.I smiled and held his hand tighter because it had been so long since he said nice things to me. He was wearing a black suit and he looked like the man I married instead of the stressed out person he'd been lately."Thank you," I said. "You look good too."The club was loud and dark and full of people dancing and drinking. I recognized some people from Damian's company and they waved at us. We walked to the VIP section that Damian had reserved for the party."This is nice," I said as I sat down on the couch. "We haven't gone out like this in forever.""I know," Damian said and he sat next to me and put his arm around me. "I'm sorry I've been so busy. But things are getting better now.""I can tell," I said. "You seem happier.""I am," he said and he kissed my head. "And a lot of that is because of my new secretary. She's been amazing.""I'm glad you found good help," I said even though something abo

The Door That Shouldn't Open

Bella Pov Coming home early was supposed to be a surprise.I sat in the makeup chair while Tanya removed the false lashes from my eyes. The photoshoot wrapped up three hours earlier than expected because the photographer's equipment stopped working."Girl you look exhausted" Tanya said while dabbing a cotton pad on my face.I sighed and leaned back in the chair. "I feel exhausted""How many shoots have you done this week""This is my fifth" I closed my eyes while she wiped off the heavy foundation. "And I have two more next week"Tanya clicked her tongue. "Bella you need to slow down. Your skin is going to hate you""I know but the money is good" I opened my eyes and looked at her through the mirror. "Plus it keeps me busy""Busy from what" She raised an eyebrow at me.I shrugged. "Just life I guess""Is everything okay with you and Damian" Tanya asked while organizing her brushes.My chest tightened at his name. "Yeah everything is fine. Why do you ask""Because every time I mention

Betrayal

Bella PovI stood in the doorway and stared at the bed. The bed I shared with my husband. But right now Damian was on top of Karen and they were moving together like I did not exist.Karen's red nails dug into Damian's back. She moaned his name loud and clear. Damian moved faster and grabbed Karen's hips tight.My legs went weak. I grabbed the doorframe to keep from falling. My heart pounded so hard I thought it would break through my chest.This could not be real. This could not be happening.But it was happening. Right in front of me, in my house, in my bed."Yes Damian right there" Karen moaned louder.Damian groaned and pulled Karen closer to him.I felt hot tears fill my eyes. I tried to breathe but my throat felt closed. I tried to say something but no words came out. My whole body shook and I needed to leave before they saw me.I stepped back from the door. My hands were shaking so bad I almost dropped my purse. I turned and walked down the hallway as fast as I could without ru

Aftermath

Damian PovI was so caught up in the moment that I didn't hear the front door slam. I froze. My heart stopped, someone was home."Oh god" I said.I ran out of the bedroom completely naked and sprinted down the hallway. My feet slipped on the hardwood floor but I caught myself on the wall. I made it to the front door and yanked it open, no one was there. I could smell Bella's cologne all over the house, which means she came home.I stood there in the doorway letting cold air hit my bare skin. My mind raced, she saw us. She had to have seen us, that was why she ran.I walked back inside and slammed the door shut. I needed to call her, i needed to explain.I ran back to the bedroom. Karen was sitting up in bed with the sheet pulled around her. She was smiling."Oops" she said and laughed a little. "Looks like we got caught"I stared at her. She was laughing, my wife just caught us together and Karen was laughing like it was funny."Get out" I said."What" Karen's smile faded."I said g

Breaking Point

Bella PovI woke up in the motel room and forgot where I was for a second. Then everything came rushing back. Damian. Karen. The bed. The betrayal.I sat up and looked around the small room. Sunlight came through the thin curtains. My phone was on the nightstand. I picked it up and checked the time. Nine thirty in the morning.My body ached from sleeping in my clothes. My eyes felt swollen from crying, my head pounded.I stood up and walked to the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror. My hair was a mess and my makeup was smeared down my face.I turned on the shower and waited for the water to get warm. I stepped under the spray.I stayed in the shower until the water started getting cold. Then I got out and dried off, i put my clothes back on.I walked back into the room and sat on the bed. My phone buzzed, i looked at the screen. A text from Tanya."Girl where are you? I have been calling you all morning"I stared at the message. I did not know what to say.I typed back."Can I

Desperation

Damian PovI drove through the city looking for Bella. I checked every place I could think of. Her favorite bookstore, the park where we had our first kiss. The restaurant where I proposed. She was not at any of them.My phone rang. I grabbed it hoping it was her. But it was my assistant from work."What" I snapped."Sir we have the meeting with the investors in an hour" my assistant said nervously."Cancel it""But sir this is a very important meeting""I said cancel it" I yelled. "Cancel all my meetings for the rest of the week""Yes sir" my assistant said and hung up.I threw my phone on the passenger seat. I did not care about work right now. All I cared about was finding my wife.I drove to Bella's modeling studio and parked outside. I waited for two hours but she never showed up. Finally I got out and knocked on the door.A young woman answered. "Can I help you""I am looking for Bella Roberts" I said. "Is she here""No" the woman said. "She is not scheduled today""Do you know

Legal Proceedings

Bella PovI sat in the small lawyer office. The room was cold and the walls were plain white. Lisa sat across from me with papers spread out on the desk."So based on everything you told me" Lisa said and pushed her glasses up. "You have a strong case. The adultery gives us leverage""Leverage" I repeated quietly."Yes" Lisa nodded. "New York law allows us to ask for more in cases of proven infidelity. We can push for a larger settlement""I do not want his money" I said.Lisa looked up from the papers. "Bella you need to think about this practically. You signed a prenup but the cheating changes things. We could get you a significant amount""How much""Depending on his assets......probably a few million at least"My stomach turned. I did not want Damian's money. I did not want anything that reminded me of him."I just want enough to start over" I said. "I do not need millions""Are you sure" Lisa leaned forward. "This is your future we are talking about. You gave up two years of your
