AUTHOR’S POV.“Did something happen?“ Hilda muttered to herself as she watched everyone disperse and then exhaled.It was obvious that Sapphire and Daniel had gone after Daniel’s parents who seemed to have left in anger, so she knew she had to wait till later when she could ask her what was wrong.She took a glance at Liam who browsed through his phone and ignored her totally.The man had not said a single word to her and she hated the silent treatment.Things like this do not usually bother her, but why does she hate it so much now that he was doing it to her?He did not even look at her!She continued to contemplate if she should talk to the man first or just let him be.When she could not take it any longer, she clasped her hands together and parted her lips to talk when his phone beeped and he picked it up almost immediately.She watched as she talked to the person on the phone for a while while he still kept a straight face and she kept playing with her hands.“Hi,” she said when

AUTHOR’S POV.Emerald sat in the back seat in silence beside her mother and then took a glance at her father who sat in the owner’s seat beside the driver.Tonight was so fucked up that she felt like if she said a word, she was going to misspeak.When she felt her mother’s hand cover her hand, she smacked her tongue and turned to the woman who stared at her.“It is fine,” Charlotte whispered to her.Emerald hissed and then moved her hand from her mother’s hand.“It is fine?” She scoffed and then threw her face out the window.“Emerald, you need to…”“Everything just went down the drain before our very eyes and that’s all you can say? It is fine? Why is everything always okay with you? Why do you always watch and agree with everything? Are you a fool?!” She screamed in annoyance.“I am sorry.”“Mum, please! Can you not say anything tonight? You kept mute throughout the gathering there, so what makes you think you can say anything now? Just shut up, please!” She hollered.Charlotte exha

AUTHOR’S POV. “Are you okay?” Daniel asked Sapphire in a whisper while her head was on his arm and was still in bed. She nodded her head gently and he slowly moved his hand, kissed her cheek, and then stood up. Flustered, Sapphire looked away from his naked body, and when Daniel noticed that, he only smiled and headed to the bathroom. Shortly after he had entered, Sapphire breathed out and covered her face with her palm. She loved every bit of the sex that she had with her husband and even though her down there still stings a little, she knew it was worth it. She pulled the blanket closer to herself, and when her eyes caught the stain of blood on the sheet, she panicked a bit and tried to take it off with her hand even though she knew that was not possible. While she was still trying to get it off, the door to the bathroom opened and Daniel came out. Sapphire hurriedly sat upright and took a glimpse at him. “I ran you a warm bath. Would you go in now?” He asked and then noticed

AUTHOR’S POV.Daniel stared at the woman who walked over to the cushioned chair and settled on it before he burst into laughter. A dark one.“You want to be everything I need in a woman and more?” He asked as he stared at her while he crossed her legs and leaned back comfortably.“I am it already. Everything you need in a woman and more. I am that woman,” she twitched her mouth.Daniel exhaled and nodded his head. He leaned back and clasped his hands together. “Would you leave on your own or do you need me to call the securities on you?”“You can’t do that, Logan. We have a lot to talk about,” Emerald shook her head.“I am not in for your trashy talks, I hope you know that.”“It’s not trashy. You’re going to like it. You have to listen to me and you can never go wrong with it.Daniel took in his lower lips for a while and sucked it before he finally stood up.He walked over to her and sat on the single chair that was quite away from her and then scanned her face.Now that he was seein

AUTHOR’S POV.Daniel arrived home with excitement written all over his face. The thought that he was going to meet his wife was making him happier than usual.When he entered the room, she was lying on her stomach on the bed and he hurried over to her, spanked her butt, and then waited for her to react.“Daniel,” she groaned as she turned around.“What is wrong? Are you not happy to see me?”Sapphire sat upright and frowned, “What happened today?”“Today? Nothing much, just meetings, work, and stuff.”“I called Tina earlier and apparently, I was at work. Only that I did not step out of the house today at all.”“Oh, shit,” Daniel smacked his tongue and shook his head.He did not even think ahead. Of course, she would know!“Emerald was there. Why?”“Babe, you should not worry yourself with something like that,” he shook his head, leaned closer to her, and cupped her cheeks.“No, I want to. Why did Emerald visit you? Did you call her? She was in your office for a while, why? What did yo
