All Chapters of He Doesn’t Know I Had His Child, And Now He’s My Boss : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

DAVIS POVThe next morning, I start dealing with the part of the marriage that can be handled on paper.The lawyer calls me shortly after I get to the office.“Good morning, Davis.”“Morning.”“I've gone through the agreement. Everything is in order on my end. I just need a few details from you and Nora before I can move forward with the legal paperwork.”“What do you need?”“Some identification documents and a few other details. I'll send you the full list. There's also the marriage date.”I lean back in my chair.“For the date, I haven't decided on that yet.”“That’s fine. Once you have one, let me know. Some of the paperwork will depend on the date.”“I will.”“I'll send everything to you shortly.”The call ends.A moment later, the list comes through.I open it and go through each requirement.There is nothing complicated about it. Most of it is routine paperwork, the kind of thing I have dealt with countless times through the company.But this is different.This time, my name is

DAVIS POVBy late morning, I am still at my desk, trying to finish the work in front of me.There are reports waiting for my approval, emails I need to respond to, and two meetings later in the afternoon. Normally, I would move through all of it without much thought, but today my attention keeps drifting back to Saturday.The dinner.My father's reaction still sits at the back of my mind. I understood what he was really asking. He wasn’t only interested in whether I had finally chosen someone. He wanted to know if I was certain enough to stand by that choice when the rest of the family started looking closely at it.And they will.My family has never been the type to accept something important without asking questions. Especially when it concerns me.For years, they have known how I handle my personal life. I don’t bring people into it easily or make decisions about my future without thinking them through. That alone will make Nora's appearance unexpected.They will notice that.They

DAVIS POVBy the time we arrive at my father's house, Nora is quiet beside me.She hasn't said much during the drive.Neither have I.There isn't much left to prepare her for. We went through the questions yesterday. She knows what they may ask, and I know what to expect from the evening.Still, sitting beside her now makes the situation feel different.This isn't practice anymore.Several cars are already parked outside.I turn off the engine and look at Nora.“They're already inside?”“Yes.”She nods.I get out and walk around to her side.She steps out, smoothing her dress before looking toward the house.I hold out my hand.She looks at it briefly, then takes it.We walk inside together.The house is already busy.Voices come from the dining room, and when we enter, several members of my family are already seated around the table.My father is at the head.My mother is beside him, and my sister is talking to two other relatives across the table.The conversation quiets when they n

NORA POVThursday comes faster than I expect.I wake up earlier than usual and stay in bed for a few minutes, looking at the ceiling.Today, Davis and I are getting married.The thought still feels strange, but I don't let myself think about it for too long. I get out of bed and start getting ready. I don't spend much time choosing what to wear. This isn't a wedding, so there is no reason to dress like one.When I finish, I leave my room and walk downstairs.Davis is already in the sitting room. He looks up when he sees me.“You're ready?”“Yes.”He checks his watch. “We should leave.”“Okay.”He leads the way outside, and I follow him to the car.The drive to the registry is quiet. Davis keeps his eyes on the road while I look out the window.A few months ago, I didn't know I would be working for Davis Rowan. I didn't know I would be living in his house, and I definitely didn't think I would be on my way to marry him.I tighten my hands around the strap of my bag.Davis notices. “Ar

DAVIS POVI end the call and place my phone down.My thoughts are completely gone. I keep reading the same line on my computer without taking in a single word.A few minutes later, there is a knock on my door.“Come in.”The door opens, and Nora walks in.She closes the door behind her and stands in front of me.“You said there was a problem.”I point to the chair across from me.“Sit.”She sits, ready to hear what happened.“My father just called.”Her expression changes slightly.“What makes it a problem?”I lean back in my chair.“He asked us to come and see him tomorrow.”“That shouldn’t be a problem. At least it’s just a visit.”“I wish that was the only thing he wants.”She frowns.“Is there more to it?”I move forward and place my hands on the table.“He said since the marriage has become legal, I need to stop treating it like something private and start presenting you as my wife publicly.”Nora adjusts in her seat.“You mean this is beyond our initial plan now?”“Kind of,” I s
