ARIA’S POV“I work here, that’s all.” I replied, but Ivanna was not taking it lightly anytime soon.She pulled at my hair and dragged me out behind the desk until I was right in front of her. “Come say that to my face, you slut,” she raged.I screamed and tried to free myself from her grip because that was the only reasonable thing I could do. My sense of reasoning aside, she won’t be standing at the moment.“From the first time I set my eyes on you, I know you’re a bad ass bitch, feigning all ignorance and holy but nothing than a whore, a dirty, useless and stinky one at that.” She tutted. “I wonder why a common cleaning contractor will be offered a job as an accounting officer in a prestigious company,” she gestured with her hand in circular motion, “if there’s nothing more to it.“The management saw potential in my skillset-”“Don’t you dare,” she stepped closer and grabbed my wrist, looking directly into my eyes with utmost disgust, “ stand there and recite the professional courte

Ivanna’s POV“When Xavier’s grandmother, Mrs. Christabel Beaumont died,” my father continued, “she left behind a private trust fund, one that even Arthur doesn’t know about, except me.”My father locked his eyes in mine. “And it was stated in this trust fund that Xavier’s first biological child will be the first Beaumont heir of the next generation.”I gasped in awe.“Not only that,” my father continued. “This trust fund transfers to this child upon verified proof, thirty parentage of late Mrs. Christabel Beaumont shares.” My eyes shone from surprised shock.“Then, to crown it all.” He held my gaze steadily. “The value of that trust, with thirty years of investment growth, currently sits at approximately four billion dollars.”The words fell into my ears like I was in a distant dreamland. It was hard to believe.“Four billion dollars,” I repeated.My father nodded. “It is being managed secretly by the family’s private investment arm and like I said, it’s only accessible to the verif

Aria’s POVI sprang up on the bed in one attempt and stormed out of the room, I almost hit my head on the door.I got to the sitting room to see my picture and Xavier’s boldly displayed on the television screen truly. The broadcaster was about to say something on the DNA topic.I grabbed the television remote on the center table with speed and changed the channel to the poem series channel.I turned toward Bryan who was looking at me with his jaw dropped and his mouth agape.“You shouldn’t be on that channel, darling.” I muffled with a soft smile. “The poem series was yet to start that was why I changed it to that.” He explained in his little voice. “But your picture, Mommy,” he said pointedly, “and Mr. Xavier from Arthur’s place.”Seems I had forgotten for once that I birthed a very brilliant and intelligent boy. He had told me one day after his visit to the Beaumont’s estate, that he met Arthur’s grandson.I closed my eyes briefly. “How could I forget.” I muttered.“That,” I said,

Xavier’s POVIvanna’s father, Kingsley Sinclair was right there at my door, somewhere in between wanting to reach out for the door handle on the outside before I opened.Even though he has been the family advisor for as long as I could remember, we rarely have a proper conversation unless it’s business-wise and important.He flashed me a smile I don’t think was necessary, his eyes fell on the car keys in my hand. “It looks like you’re rushing out.”I followed his gaze briefly before turning back to him, I adjusted my hold on the car keys. “I wasn’t expecting you,” I said instead, diverting from the conversation he wanted to build.The look on his face already told me we’re going to have quite a long one anyways. “If you don’t mind sparing a few minutes, we can have a quick conversation.”I glanced briefly at the time display on my phone screen; his gaze followed me.“Okay,” I replied hesitantly and stepped away from the door for him to enter.He walked in and have himself settled in

ARIA’S POVWe both freezed.Bryan called from his room, his voice wobbled. “Someone men are outside our building.The buzzer sounded at the same time from the panel near the front door.Bryan’s voice came nearer, groggy and slightly confused, he was close to the sitting room already. “Mom? They’re ringing the bell.”I pulled away from Xavier quickly and hurried to meet Bryan before he gets to the sitting room. I met him in the passage and crouched down in front of him.“Stay in your room, baby. Mommy needs to attend to some guests.”“Okay, Mommy,” he replied obediently and turned around.Footsteps retreated down the corridor and the buzzer sounded again, then a third time with the persistent rhythm of someone who had decided that eventually someone would answer if they kept pressing.“I think I should open the door for them,” I said finally, already reaching for the door lock, but Xavier’s hand pulled me back gently.“I think we should hold on,” he said. “They will eventually leave if
