Scarlett still hadn’t returned to the private lounge. She was still there, standing with Nadia and the other woman beside an empty table. The two women kept their eyes on the doorway, waiting for Devine to return.They whispered among themselves, but Scarlett could hear every word they said.“Is she really going to bring Darius here just to prove to us that they’re in a relationship? Darius Aldama? Or maybe she’s bluffing?” one of the women asked, unable to take her eyes off the entrance.Nadia shook her head and gave a soft laugh. “I don’t know either. Let’s just wait. We’ll find out soon enough when she comes back with Darius.”Scarlett stepped forward to leave, intending to leave Devine’s two friends behind. But before she could make it through the door, one of the women blocked her path.Scarlett raised an eyebrow at her. She stepped forward, making it clear that she wasn’t the type of person who could be bullied. The woman backed away, but Nadia stepped in front of Scarlett inste

Scarlett threw the paper bag in her hand straight into Vernice’s arms. “Who said I came from the obstetrics department?” she snapped. But inwardly, she had almost panicked. Thankfully, she always came prepared whenever she went to the hospital. She always had a backup plan in case she ran into someone she knew. “There are plenty of other clinics nearby, Vernice. I only have a cold. Can’t I see a doctor?”Vernice immediately caught the paper bag, clearly irritated. Without hesitation, she opened it and dumped everything inside onto the table.There were only a few boxes of cold medicine. Nothing related to pregnancy.Vernice grimaced, clearly unable to believe it. Her irritation and disappointment were written all over her face, but there was nothing she could do. Too many people were already watching them.Scarlett stepped closer, her heels clicking softly against the tile floor. She tilted Vernice’s chin up with her fingers. “You’re mad and frustrated because you were fired from Scar

Why did she feel this way? Why did her heart beat faster whenever she and Darius got close?Could it be that she was starting to develop feelings for him?Impossible. It couldn’t happen. Darius was Tobias’s uncle. She still hadn’t forgiven herself for accidentally sleeping with him. She would curse herself if she ever started liking him.If that happened, she would bring a huge mess into the Aldama family. Whatever this feeling was inside her chest, she needed to get rid of it.Scarlett pulled her hand away from Darius and looked up at him. “I still need to go back to the company. I can’t stay long. I still have a lot of work waiting for me at the office.”“I’ll talk to Alfonso about this. I’m sure you can spare a few minutes,” Darius replied seriously without taking his eyes off her.Scarlett was about to open her mouth to answer, but Darius had already turned his attention away from her and faced his secretary.“Prepare the piano. Scarlett will play,” Darius announced firmly.Scarle

Scarlett felt as if her dream had been unnervingly real. It was so tangible that she could still feel the phantom warmth of his breath and every soft stroke against her skin, even after waking up.In that dream, Darius held her tightly from behind. He kept her pinned, preventing her from moving as his lips pressed soft, deliberate heat against her shoulder, slowly trailing up to her neck. His kisses were unhurried and scorching, as if he intended for every touch to burn itself into her memory.A moment later, Darius began gently nipping at her skin, marking her as his own. A quiet gasp escaped her lips, and her eyes closed tightly against the overwhelming sensation coursing through her.After taking his fill of her neck and shoulder, Darius pulled her around to face him, leaving virtually no space between their bodies. She could hear the heavy thud of his heartbeat while his thick arm wrapped securely around her waist, holding her with a grip strong enough to snap her in two if he wis

Darius moved quickly. He pulled Scarlett toward him and immediately turned his back to the door, shielding her from Devine’s view.“Darius—” Scarlett was about to protest when he suddenly wrapped his arms around her.Her eyes widened when his chest pressed against her ear. She could feel his heartbeat, fast and unsteady, as if something was racing inside his chest. She could even smell his masculine, addictive scent, which only made her panic more.Scarlett remained frozen in place. She barely breathed, afraid that even the slightest sound of her breathing might be heard. Neither of them spoke, and the only thing she could hear in that moment was Darius’s heartbeat.That was when she realized she had truly fallen for her husband’s uncle. She didn’t want to admit it, but that was the truth. All she could do now was hide it from Darius and make sure he never noticed.If anyone saw them like this, rumors would spread immediately, and people would start talking about the two of them.The
