PartnerI DIDN'T sleep that night. I was thinking about what Argo and I had argued over. If he can't be mine, why doesn't he just let me do what I want? His entire concern here is the child, not me.But every time I think about it, a hurt appears in my heart. Is this just my role in his life? Will I vanish like a bubble when I finish giving him the child, like if he didn't recognize me?After all, who am I to bother him? I entered his life when he was preparing to create a family with Florisse. Maybe I'm forgetting that the bond he and Florisse share isn't a joke to be traded to a con artist like me.So, even if I give Argo a Son, he would undoubtedly find a way to reconnect with Florisse.Wait a minute! Why am I thinking about that? Among the many problems I have, the one I understand is regarding him and Florisse. I'm not even sure how to get pregnant. Argo and I could probably have a dozen children if I could become pregnant every night with my hand.I snorted and twisted and turne
LUNCH"Is Argo Greensmith of GS Hotel the owner of Greensmith University?" When Andra turned to look at me after looking up at Argo again, I nearly turned pale. "My name is Andra Jimenez." It's nice to finally meet you. "Thank you for looking after my friend, Natalia!" He even shook hands with Argo before inviting us to join the other guests.Andra introduced us to some of her guests, the most recent of which was a group of my college classmates."Natalia, are you there? You've changed drastically! You're not as tight as you used to be!" Albert is one of my classmates.I could only respond with a smile and turned to face my classmates. Prince appears to have his good wife next to him."Prince! It's good to see you again!"I didn't approach him because I knew his wife was nearby."How are you?""It's fine, this is my partner. It's Argo Greensmith." I take the risk of introducing myself to them.They smiled as they greeted Argo. When Argo extended his hand for a handshake, my other clas
COLDI returned home with a heaviness in my chest. I couldn't understand why I had to feel this way about Argo. This cannot be done because the plans will be ruined.I can't do what I want to do if I'm constantly crying. I still need to seduce Argo, and we have a child, so that I can get out of this situation.But how can I do that if I haven't begun anything yet? It's as if I'm giving up. Remember, Natalia, you are a con artist, and you have the ability to spin him around in your palm if you so desire. Nobody, no matter who, can bring you down because you were born to be a queen.Even though I doubt he'll return home early, I decided to take a shower and prepare dinner for the two of us. I went to my room and lay down after I finished cooking. I, too, had no appetite and preferred to spend my time on social media.I don't do this very often because I'm not interested in celebrities or politics. But, ever since I met Argo, I've wanted to follow him on social media, particularly Instag
Florrise"You're pale; are you all right?"When we entered the kitchen, Paul couldn't stop talking. I jumped back when he touched my cold hand. I didn't expect hearing from Argo to have such an impact on me."Is it true... F-Florisse will arrive tonight?"Over his shoulder, Paul cast a glance at me. He emptied the plates into the sink."Why can't you and Florisse communicate? I assumed you were fine because Argo and Florisse had already spoken to you."I frowned, puzzled by what he was saying."I mean, I think they agreed to wait until you give birth to the child before proceeding with the marriage," he added.I gripped the sink and bowed slightly. Because of the sharp pain in my heart, I couldn't stop biting my lips.I don't anticipate any new issues aside from Argo's ability to get me pregnant. My plans are going to be a shambles now that Florisse and Argo are getting along again."Natalia, you don't look well. Do you want to take a break?"I nodded reluctantly. He did not hesitate
ConfrontationI locked myself in the bathroom for a few minutes, possibly because my stomach flared up again. I don't want them to think I'm sick for attention if I go back and forth to the bathroom.So I grabbed the bathroom tissue that was on the shelf. I also looked in the medicine kit and luckily found some diatabs. I hid it in my pocket because Argo would be suspicious of my pregnancy if he found out I took medicine while pregnant.I don't want him to suspect me again, like when I drank the wine at the restaurant the last time. Only now did I have the opportunity to research pregnancy taboos. As a result, I'm being extra cautious now.Before leaving the bathroom, I almost rub my palm with soap and spray my entire body with air freshener. I peeked slightly and looked around for Argo, but he wasn't there.My steps were still slow enough that they wouldn't notice me, but when I heard Paul's voice call my name, I closed my eyes tightly.I took a step closer to them, still carrying th
I refused to budge and gave him a hard stare. Argo frowned and gradually let go of my arms."You only have the right to my child, but you don't own me, remember?" I squeezed my arm hard, then turned away with a smile on my lips.What's the matter with him, he hasn't even touched me and now he wants to possess me?But I was taken aback when he suddenly turned around and faced me, so I backed away. He also drew my back so close to him that I almost fell into his wide chest.Argo gave me a scowl. If I didn't look away, our faces would have almost touched."I own you, Natalia. Maybe you're forgetting that you should be in jail right now rubbing bars if it weren't for me." His voice is deep and resonant.I inhale his hot, fragrant breath, which saps my energy. I might have fallen if it hadn't been for his hand supporting my back.I tried to swallow but couldn't get it past my throat. Because I'm so nervous, I can't even move.Argo's gaze follows my nose all the way down to my lips. My body
I got up early the next day to prepare breakfast for the guests. Paul and Christof fell asleep here, while George took Barbara and Gellie.Paul caught up with me in the kitchen while I was still singing."Morning! How is your sleep going?""It's all right. I awoke to the wonderful aroma of your cooking."When I placed the cooked bacon, hotdog, egg, and tomato on the table, I smiled."Coffee?""It's me, maybe it's bothering you too much, what do you drink in the morning?" he asked, turning to face the coffee machine.The truth is that I drink coffee every morning. I'm purging milk every morning because I'm pretending to be pregnant. I even drink it in my room on occasion, especially when Argo is not present."I only have milk, you see. I'll get it ready "I said this as I returned to the stove to continue cooking the rice."Are you really that difficult to cook?"I looked over at Paul, who had already returned to the table and taken a seat in one of the chairs. He looks so hot in his sa
I couldn't help but wipe the tears that fell. I'm feeling so heavy right now. This is how it feels to be accused of something you did.I'm so sorry for the numerous sins I've committed. I don't know how I'm going to get out of it.I blinked when Argo handed me a tissue."I don't want to see anyone crying, so wipe your tears," he said, his gaze fixed on the road.I accepted the tissue quietly and wiped my tears. I even sniffed there because I had been sniffing for a while due to a cold. I took out another tissue and wiped my tears."You should have just waited for me to come back before leaving the boutique," he said solemnly."I'm sorry, I was planning to go home."To be honest, I had planned to give him a gift after learning that it was his birthday today, but it appears that I won't be able to do so."Brace yourself. I don't want mom to see you looking like that when we get there."I nodded slowly. I cast a glance at him, who had completely removed his sunglasses. He is also dressed
