Tears for Him
-ANASTASIA-“Do you want me to drop you?” Marco asked making me turn around to face him. I shook my head.And then pointed towards the operation theatre. “James needs someone and can you please call in his wife?” He nodded. I know what he was waiting for but it was hard for me to say the words. “Kelly will drop me. I hope you don’t mind.” I said looking at her, she gave me a thumbs up.We started to go to the entrance when I stopped again, Marco had begun to walk to the theatre. "Marco, wait.” He turned around. He knew what I was going to say. “Please make him like the billionaire that he is known for.” With tears in his eyes, he nodded and went his way.The drive to the Dominic mansion was silent as I remembered the days in Maldives. IT hasn’t even been a week, I scrolled through the pictures we had taken when I remembered the email. It had said ‘tricked you’.

Equal Owner
-ANASTASIA-Three days have passed by like three years… I realized waking up on the fourth morning after his death. I opened the iPad followed by the website where I had to type in,‘New day. I…’ Dammit! Nathan, I can’t write without you. I used to do it when you weren’t there but now, I can’t even think. Helena started to cry reminding me that she needed her milk. I had taken leave from the office and Mrs. V was okay with it. Pouring the milk into the bottle, I dragged myself to her room. “Hey baby.”Giving her a small smile, I placed the bottle in her tiny hands and helped her feed herself. “Mama... ma.” My fingers stopped moving and I stopped fidgeting in my place. I know I recently started considering myself her mother but I didn’t expect her first word to be that and in reference to me.Laughing at the same time crying I picked her up and kissed her all over. &

Not so Dead
-ANASTASIA-“Okay, you are clearly mistaken. Show me his will.” I asked putting my hand out for the papers. Nathan did tell me that he had done everything and we were divorced now, then what is his lawyer saying?Maybe Nathan doesn’t trust him with this secret and did it through another lawyer but how do I find out whom? His lawyer searched in his file before taking out one bunch and passed it to me. I noticed Stella’s intense glance at the papers and shook my head. “Stella, I guess you should go and please keep this discussion private.”She looked hesitant. “I can be of assistan...” I stopped her and shook my head in denial, she nodded and then took her purse from the couch before leaving after giving us one last glance. I couldn’t go through the papers with Helena in one hand, yeah, she is really fussy these days.I am not the only one who feels his absence. “Marco could you ho

The Plan
-ANASTASIA-Nathan lifted me off his lap. “I have to hide.” I raised my brow in question, why? “No one can know that I am alive at least not yet.” Oh! I nodded and helped him up. He winced in pain making me realize that he was really hurt.Padding slowly, he walked behind the couch and crouched low while groaning, “this is turning out to be a bad idea.” He said through his teeth before keeping quiet. I had to stop myself from chuckling.Marco looked at us before opening the door widely, “Hello Dr. Melendez.” He announced loudly.The doctor came inside and gave me a small smile, “How are you doing Mrs. Dominic... sorry I guess it is Miss. Monroe? And how is Helena?” I was hearing myself being called Miss. Monroe after a long time and I hated it.“I am well. So is Helena.”He nodded before placing his bag on the couch, I almost stopped him but seeing that

Him Again
-ANASTASIA-“I don’t still think that this is a good idea.” I said removing the bandage wrapped around Nathan’s chest. “Your job is miles away from mine and how do you expect me to do it? What if I mess up?”He stopped my hand from moving around. “If you mess up then I will fix it.” How romantic?! Shaking my head, I remove the bandage completely and threw it in the bin, the purplish hue had lightened but it was still there glaring at me. “And I am not worried about you messing up, because you already know what you are doing?”“Really?” I asked trying to think what made him think that.Nodding his head, he slightly stretched while groaning. I brought his hands down glaring at him and applied the medicine on his chest before wrapping a new dressing. “You fixed all those papers and you didn’t need any training for it.”Oh yeah that does make sens

New Boss and Her Employees
-ANASTASIA-My throat became dry as I tried to call out Nathan’s name. Still staring at the laptop my hand reached for him and started to shake him. “Mmh...” He groaned in his sleep, I shook him harder but all he did was turn around. “I haven’t slept in days, Monroe.” He mumbled.“Nathan wake up, please.” Maybe it was the urgency in my voice that startled him but he woke up and switched on the lamp letting light into the room. Rubbing his eyes but at the same time trying not to put stress on his chest he took the laptop from me causing my eyes to divert from the screen for the first time since I saw the mail.He cursed under his breath as he read the mail. “This proves that the scum is behind my money.” Looking at me he realized how frightened I was. “I won’t let him touch you, Anastasia. I swear I will die before he reaches you.” But he didn’t understand my fear

A Snake to Deal with
-ANASTASIA-“Ma’am, he has informed that there will be a delay of at least half an hour, there is traffic it seems.” Stella said placing the files on the table.Nodding at her, I asked her to wait outside till they come. Traffic, huh? I opened my phone and went to the map to see the route from his office to ours, there was no sign of traffic. “Stella?” I called and she opened the door. “Can you ask Giana to get me a coffee from the Starbucks at No. 45 highway?”“Uh... but don’t we have a Starbucks right around the corner?” She asked probably confused at my odd request.I gave her a firm glare making her nod her head and go before closing the door. “Why are you sending her to the highway far from the office?”I kept my eyes on the clock. “Just to prove one of my suspicions. How much time do you think it will take her?”“Ten minutes max i

Perfect for him
-ANASTASIA-“Guys I think I can manage for tonight.” I said trying to convince them standing on our front porch. They shook their heads simultaneously making me raise my brow at Suresh. “You just came now.”He shrugged. “I really think you are a nice person and you need friends right now.”Okay… sighing I opened the door and let them inside. Switching on the lights, I looked at the guys. “I don’t think I have any clothes for all of you unless you don’t mind using Nathan’s.”“I guess I can manage in this shirt.” Suresh said and Gabriel agreed with him.If I am not wrong then their problem is with the thought that Nathan is dead but you can remove your jackets and place it on the couch. I am going upstairs to change.”They nodded while Cain was already laying on the couch as if he was in his own house. I went upstairs and opened Nathan&r

Surprise
-ANASTASIA-I miss talking to people through a live camera. That is the first thought that came to my mind when I finished reading through one of the files on Nathan’s table. It has only been a week but it is exhausting, I wonder how Nathan does it?Nathan only has one bandage left to remove and that is the one on his thighs, his ribs still hurt which he is stubborn enough to not show but I see how his forehead crunches whenever Helena sits on his chest or a laptop.“I am bored.” I heard through my ear. I think I am getting used to Nathan voicing his thoughts or opinions every now and then.The green file looked boring so I picked the red one instead. “Do something with Helena or watch a movie.”“Hmmm… Helena is asleep and what movie is there to watch?” right! Nathan rarely watches movies so I don’t expect him to know. “Okay I think I like the trailer of this one.”

The Reveal
-ANASTASIA-Jocelyn turned around while I looked at Nathan with widened eyes. What the hell is he doing? I shook my head at him but instead of listening to me he gave me a reassuring nod. “How dare you interfere?” Jocelyn seethed before looking at me. “Aren’t you going to say something?”I shrugged. “He is right.” She raised her brow. “I am not signing the papers and you can’t force me. Actually, I think it is better you go back to being the head of department in your father’s office, there might be something useless for you to do.” Nathan snickered making me glare at him.After all this I couldn’t let him give up the plan. “Mr. Simpson, please wait outside. Thank you for your interference but I can take care of this on my own.” He frowned while Jocelyn had a smirk. I signaled to the door and after hesitating for a bit, he stood up.“Yes, ma’am
