AMAYA'S POV "What are you doing here?" I asked Conan who appeared behind my door without any announcement. "You gave me one job, right? And I haven't reported yet." Though I am not sure if I am ready to listen to him. "What is it?" I asked. "Aren't you gonna invite me in first?" While I had doubts about letting him get inside because of the mess that just happened earlier. I also can't shut him out since I don't wanna be alone in here either so I had no choice but to call a housekeeper to clean my room and let Conan get inside. "What happened here?" He asked, looking around the room. "You don't need to know." "Anyway, I found out about a woman that is connected to Max Howards." I looked at him with a frown face having thoughts like 'he is not dumbed after all'. "Oh come on, don't give me that face, Amaya. I looked for it myself. I had my sources." He then sat down on the sofa as I clutched my robe preparing myself to listen to him. "Alright, continue," I said while re
MAX’S POV My day in the university continued with everyone not having a proper class. Amaya has finally been able to show everyone her true self. She is worth the admiration. I haven’t also had a proper talk with her because she was way too busy entertaining the other students during break time. Kade and Miles accompanied me though so it’s cool. “Damn dude, you got hit so badly,” Miles said while staring at Amaya with me from across the cafeteria. Admiring the thought that she's talking with other people now.“Aren’t you?” I returned the question to him smirking because I know that he was on to her too. “Well, I like her but I don't think it's the same way you do. She's fine. But I don't think she's for me." "Then why were you clinging to her before?" I asked out of the confusion of how he acted around her. "I think everyone does that, like if the two of you could click then why not? And if not, no big deal either. It depends." He shrugged then looked back at me returning the sm
AMAYA'S POV When we arrived in New York everything was in a mess. As soon as they found out that I arrived already, everyone was trying to talk to me at my office but I couldn't entertain them one by one. Vanique on the other hand, was now acting like my assistant since Malia is still not awake while Diego and Noah haven't fully recovered yet. Even though she just had a very bad miscarriage, she was still trying her best to help me. With that, she scheduled a meeting for everyone that wants to talk to me while my body is feeling numb because of the bumpy ride I just had on the plane. And yet, I can't stop because of that. During the meeting, as I listened to everybody's investigations and suspicions, they were all leading and pointing to the same person and that's Howard's CEO, Max. And with all these problems gathered in one place, it only gave me a lot of tactical revenge. "Now listen everyone, I have to be honest with all of you that I know this man. I met him in Canada. And yo
AMAYA’S POVAfter my talk with Malia in the hospital, I went back to my place thinking of calling Flynn. I was already looking at my phone while lying on the bed when all of a sudden my phone started ringing which startled me and dropped the phone on my face. It's like Flynn heard me which made him do the first move instead. Well, that's who I thought it was. Because when I picked up my phone and looked at it. I was wrong, It was Max. I panicked, jumping off my bed, leaving it ringing. I can't answer this yet. I'm fucking nervous for some reason. Maybe knowing Flynn first is the best thing I could do than talking to Max this soon. I didn't answer the phone and left it as it was while I walked back and forth in my room. I just felt so guilty. Besides, I'm not ready yet. How could I dare talk to him when I know I made some things that could get him mad at me? Like literally, recently. My phone rang again and it was still him. I did the same thing, waiting for it to end on its own.
AMAYA’S POV "I can't tell him yet." Those were the words that I overheard from Vesna while she was talking to Flynn. "We'll wait through that paternity test before you can. I'll help you out." This one was from Flynn. I'm not sure if Max heard it though since he was still inside the car when I got out and doesn't seem bothered. But his facial expression is plain. He just looked at Vesna as if she was a stranger. "Oh... We just bump into each other on our way here." I tried to make an excuse to ease the tension between us. "We were together. We left together." Max confidently said looking at the both of them. "I'm not feeling well, I just came here for a consultation," Vesna explained as if she needed to. "Oh really? Had another sex perhaps?" Max calmly asked yet in a sarcastic manner. The moment he said that was when I turned to Flynn who was holding me beside him. What did Max mean by having sex with Vesna? Flynn? Made out with her? "Shut up, Max. That was all in the
FLYNN'S POV Amaya Wescott. It was the name I'd been hearing all over that club when I celebrated my friend's birthday in New York City. And I never actually thought that I would end up having sex with her. I was drunk and my determination to do so came from my friends who were teasing me for being a virgin. I can still remember that night when it happened. It was something I have never regretted. I also didn't expect her to see me at the hospital where I was working though. The second I saw her was when I realized she is worth my attention. She seemed valuable to me that I can forget about what was first important and be with her instead. She's that precious. Up until today, it's still here. Nothing changed. I may have made one mistake but it was before she arrived in California. I never thought it could be a possibility that I would become a candidate as a father for Vesna's upcoming baby. Well, she was confident enough that it was Max though so maybe I should not worry about it
AMAYA'S POV It's going to be unfair to him if he continues this with me. And I'd rather be having him leave me than see him suffer when I can't even promise him the love that he deserves. I feel so selfish. But what else can I do? As what Diego said on the speakers, we both immediately went downstairs to see Conan. I almost forgot about him since I feel like I am done using him. But after those consecutive problems in my company was followed by this one. I can't keep having Flynn dragged into all this. Somehow, I need to show him that he needs to leave because it'll benefit him. "Conan? What's up?" I asked as soon I glanced at him. "Thank God! I thought you ran away from me already?" As he stood off from his seat and looked at me while I'm still on the stairs on our way down. "Why would I?" I asked raising my brow. "Just kidding. I just want to see your place and geez you haven't updated me for a while you know that?" The Conan vibe that I once hated now became that cool and
MAX'S POV Damn this bitch, Vesna. If only I was not a candidate for the father of that baby she is carrying inside her right now, I would not hesitate to leave her alone in the streets. But it can't happen. I have to keep her safe from all those upcoming threats Amaya could possibly give her after finding out the truth. I hired a new executive assistant and Vesna would train her whenever I visit her place to check on her condition. Her place means somewhere no one can recognize her or me. I have to keep her away from the public and find out about her pregnancy. She already caused too much chaos and this is not helping me at all. I never thought that I would act like a father though, especially having these new routines. From taking her to a clinic for weekly checkups, giving off the foods she craves, and those fucking mood swings that sometimes make me want to kill her. For example... "Max? I want to eat ice cream." "Ice cream? Won't your baby get cold there?" I asked feeling so
