(Alana)It was a lovely afternoon, unfortunately, Ricardo showing up without telling me made me uncomfortable. I guided him to my office. Despite how I was looking, I did everything I could to keep calm."The view is beautiful, " I said when we walked up to the large balcony which had a vast evergreen garden. The blooming flowers made the scenery quite bewitching. It was perfect for a photo shoot and just relaxing."You like it?" Ricardo glanced back over his shoulder and I nodded. The fact that he chose a perfect and peaceful location made me happy."I love it, you didn't tell me you were coming," I said but proceeded to voice out my opinion. The man didn't answer right away but seemed to be thinking. I scanned him from head to toe. He had his hands shoved in his pockets when he fully turned to me. I felt butterflies in the pit of my stomach."I came to see my wife…and well…" the man said hesitantly just as there was a light knock at the door. I was going to get it when the door f

The entire party room had their eyes on Alana. On the other hand, Joslyn was busy sobbing while her friends coaxed her to stop. Alana saw as the women gathered behind kept throwing insults at her and questioning her upbringing. One thing she knew was that Joslyn and her mom didn't invite Marcela to have fun. But she planned everything. "Marcela, are you going to let this pass…everyone knows it…the media knows this…my husband's business is getting affected by all this," Maria said with sobs and her husband held her hand. It was obvious, the mother and daughter duo were busy playing a pity party."My daughter is precious, your son took advantage of her …All because she was working for him" Joslyn's dad chimed in and the woman nodded in agreement. Alana could tell Marcela was unhappy. Her mother-in-law was trying everything to keep calm. The drama wasn't necessary. Unfortunately, the damage was already done."My cousin would never touch any other woman…are you sure this isn't a trap,"

(Alana)It was early in the morning, I was the first one to wake up. A night of nothing but passion made her feel energetic. Getting out of Ricardo's embrace was hard, but I had to work. After a dramatic night, I knew I had to take care of myself and my baby. The thought of having a child in my womb had me smiling as I reached my hand down and caressed my belly. The feeling was something I couldn't contain. I had Ricardo's child growing in my womb.“Doctor's appointment?” a raspy voice interrupted my happy thoughts. Glancing over my shoulder, I found a naked Ricardo wrapped in sheets staring at her.“Nope, are you not going to get ready?” I said, putting the hairbrush back on the table. I was busy. Ricardo frowned and prompted on his elbows. I had to ignore those long hairy legs and toned upper body. His hair was messy, but he was still as handsome as ever.“I don't want you to be moving around,” the man said when I walked to pick up some sheets which had fallen on the floor.“Ricky,

“Alana, you should take a break…you've been working since the afternoon," Brigitte said immediately as she entered the large room where the designs were done. All the employees had gone home, but their boss was still working. “Need to finish up…we don't want any mishaps,” Alana said and stretched a little. To know she had been working without actually checking the time. “Well, you are pregnant. You need to take care of yourself,” Brigitte frowned and walked around the long table. “We now have a week, I want everything to be perfect," she already made plans for the launch coming up in a week. The jewelry was done, but her collection was yet to be done. “I see, you are talented,” Brigitte commented while she checked all the designs placed on the table. Alana was indeed passionate about her work. Brigitte had to say, no one could compare to Alana. “Did Cam do something or what?” Alana asked as the two women sat down and someone brought them some hot coffee. “I don't wanna talk ab

Alana's eyes were red from rubbing them multiple times. She stared at her computer screen and then at her phone. No call from Ricardo. The man only asked Dennis to deliver lunch and other lovey-dovey gifts, and nothing. “Ah! This can't be happening,” it was frustrating to concentrate on work when her so-called husband was busy spending time away from her. “So…is it okay?” Someone's voice brought her back to reality. Startled, Alana glanced up and found her new assistant standing before her with a confused expression. “The materials just came in, the team is asking if you can check and select the ones you like,” the girl with big glasses covering half her face said and Alana knew what had happened. “Oh, Becky I think I need to look at this later,” Alana said with a sigh and pushed the chair backwards. The girl gave a half smile and placed a few files on the table. “Have you forgotten…you said we should do this as soon as possible,” the girl blinked profoundly at her, Alana let out
