Selena's POVA knock on my office door interrupted my work. My assistant entered, a wide smile on her face as she deposited a banquet of roses on my desk."Delivery for you," she announced before leaving me to my floral surprise.Picking up the attached card, I discovered the sender wasn't Diego, but Jake. Confusion clouded my mind. Why was he sending me flowers again?I relegated the flowers to a corner of my desk, attempting to refocus on work. Yet, my thoughts kept drifting back to the events at the house. Could Jake have genuinely mistaken my mother for Gracie? The whole situation defied logic. Though somewhat similar, the two women were far from identical. Agitated, I paced my office. Now I understood why Jake stressed memorizing everyone's names – it hadn't seemed so strange at the time. I shook my head in disbelief. It couldn't be true.Throughout the afternoon, the perplexing mix-up continued to nag at me. By the time I finished my work, it was late. Having dismissed my assis

Jake's POVThe next time I tried to see the kids, I was denied access at the gate. They told me they weren't around. Selena must be behind this. I can't just give up on her, not when she's on the verge of marrying someone else.It's true what they say: you never truly appreciate something until it's gone. I won't lose Selena like that. That's why I've been showering her with gifts and flowers, pouring all my love into the kids... only now I can't even reach them. She can't just shut me out of their lives like that! I am their father.I don't want to make a fool of myself again. The last time I called Mrs. DaCosta "Gracie," I nearly blew my cover. It's a miracle my secret is still safe with my history of blunders. I can't afford to mix them up again. My only option is to see Selena face-to-face.The security guards wouldn't even let me enter the building. Did they recognize me, or did Selena specifically tell them to keep me out? I called her phone repeatedly, but it went straight to v

Selena's POVWhile sorting through files on my desk for approval, I stumbled upon one labeled "Donation." Curiosity piqued, I opened it to learn more about the cause. "What am I donating to?" I wondered aloud.The file detailed a small center dedicated to people with prosopagnosia, a condition where individuals struggle to recognize faces. Apparently, it could arise from serious head injuries, a weakened brain, and manifested in various ways. Intrigued, I delved deeper into the illness online.Suddenly, my thoughts shifted to Jake. Could this be his problem? Maybe that's why he kept mixing up faces. But hold on... he always recognized me, even in a crowd. Perhaps I was an exception? Did that mean his condition wasn't severe? If he could recognize me, maybe there was treatment available.This must be the big secret he'd been hiding. Were his family members even aware?Lost in thought, I looked up as my assistant entered with another package. I was growing weary of Jake's games. If h

Diego's POVShe seemed lost in thought, not paying attention to me or responding to my questions. When we reached the restaurant parking lot, I had to tap her shoulder and call her name to get her attention.What troubled her? The kids were fine, the family was fine, work was smooth sailing. What could be weighing so heavily on her mind? Jake.That damn guy just wouldn't leave her alone. I'd been actively inserting myself into their interactions, fearing I might lose her if I wasn't careful. That's why I'd moved up the wedding date. In a week, we'd be married. No more interference."Why do you look so lost? Is it Jake?" I asked as she looked up at me with those innocent, troubled eyes."What?" she blinked repeatedly, trying to regain control of her expression."He's been hovering around you a lot lately. Is he causing trouble?""No," she said, shaking her head, but I saw the lie in her eyes."I think you're lying," I stated. "Anyway, let's go in."I stepped out of the car, unfazed by

Jake's POVUndecided, I muttered to myself, "What should I do? Should I even go to the DaCosta's house? I know I won't be welcomed, but..." The thought of the approaching wedding, just a day away, spurred me on. "At least I have to try and see her, the kids..."Reaching the gate, I was surprised. The security guards waved me through without a hitch. Was Selena being considerate today? Entering the mansion, I bumped into someone. Unsure who it was, I stayed silent. Thankfully, the person spoke."Will you just stand there?" Gracie's voice filled the air. "You can see the kids briefly. They miss you." She walked away, and I followed her to the playroom.The children spotted me and squealed, rushing into my arms for a hug."Hello, Mr. Jake!" Sophia greeted me from the play mat."Hello," I replied, setting Jadon down as he wriggled impatiently. He toddled over to his toys, grabbing one and returning to me."Play," Jadon demanded, holding out the toy."You better take off that fancy suit,"

Selena's POVIt was the D-day. The wedding song was about to begin, my cue to march in and meet my future husband. Only my family was present.As planned, I would be walking down the aisle alone. The few guests from my side included Mom, Gracie, Sophia and the twins, Hillary and her son Max, Mr. Luke and Mr. Abrahams, along with my assistant. My aunt had refused to participate in "such a union."I hadn't seen Jake for two days. The last time we interacted, he seemed distant, avoiding conversation with me while remaining playful with the kids. Was it because of the wedding? My behavior last time? How did he feel about me now? I was a different person than before. Could he see it? Did it matter to him? Or was he only concerned about the kids?Was securing heirs all his attention on them amounted to? It brought tears to my eyes when Jada called him "dada" one evening, and Jadon mimicked her. I watched as Jake wiped a tear away, pulling the twins into a hug that excluded me.For two days

Diego's POVSelena was finally mine. I couldn't wait to show her my love and devotion, to prove I was committed to making our marriage work. Her smile throughout the ceremony seemed forced, tense even. But during the reception, when she held her children, a genuine smile lit up her face. She laughed with them, took pictures, and even playfully placed the crown on Jada's head. The little girl, oblivious to the oversized crown, giggled and declared herself a princess.While Jadon clung to his mother, his eyes wide with curiosity, Nana approached me for a dance. Selena, carrying Jadon, joined us on the floor, swaying gently with her son."Congratulations again," Jane said. "Such a shame your father couldn't be here." I knew the apology drill was coming.Honestly, his absence didn't bother me. Everything went smoothly. But Jane seemed determined to make excuses for him."He'd be here if it weren't so important," she muttered, her gaze glued to her feet. She wasn't the most graceful d

Selena's POVI was so tired that I slept half of the time for our short flight. By the time I felt a touch on my shoulders, it was Diego. He looked down at me with a grin.“We are here.”“Where is the 'here'?” I asked, rubbing my eyes and sitting upright in my seat. I couldn't feel the motion, so we must have landed. “Sorry, I slept off.”“It is no problem. Come and find out where we are,” he helped me with my seat belt and took my hands. We stepped out of the jet, and my jaw dropped.We were on an island. I looked around for a hint of which island. Queens, that was where we were. Diego led me to the glass house away from where we landed.“Wow, this is massive, Diego,” I said, shocked.“Wait till you see the inside of it,” he said with a wide grin and walked ahead of me to the house. “They will bring our things in, don’t worry,” he called back to me.I gathered my wedding gown and hurried after Diego. He was waiting for me at the door. I stopped beside him. “Ready?” he asked, looking d
