That’s the only thing she says before the collapses unconscious on top of her father.
I ran over to her, lifting her in my arms…
“Angeline,” I call her name, trying to wake her up but without success.
“Let’s take her to the hospital, Oliver suggests, getting up.
I nod and hurry to my car with her, driving to the hospital
Of all the ways I imagined this night ending, this one didn’t cross my mind.
Sicting in a hospital waiting room.
Angeline’s father was glaring at me every moment, and if it weren’t for the child, I would’ve already left.
This is you
is your fault,” he pointed at me, accusing.
I already had a pounding headache and wanted to avoid doing something stupid with this old man, so I chose to stay quiet
“She was at home, peaceful! But you went there to torment my girl”
“Do you prefer that I lie to your daughter? That I don’t make her happy? Do you want me to cheat on her?” I asked, and he fell silent. Tm very honest in all aspects of my life, and your daughter has always known that I don’t ke her and that I’m in love with someone else.”
“And you got my girl pregnant?” he asked.
“I didn’t do it alone, and your daughter isn t the saint YOU (think she is.”
“What are you saying?” He stood up and headed in my direction, and I stood up as well.
We stood face in face, glaring at each other,
7:20 PM
I can’t get manied!
“Gentlemen,” the doctor said as he approached the waiting room. “We are in a hospital,” he warned.
I stepped back from Oliver and looked at the doctor.
How is she? The baby?” I asked.
“They’re both fine now.” He looked at the papers in his hand and repeated, “She must not get stressed, Avoid having her upset as much as possible; it’s not good for the baby.”
“See?” Oliver looked at me. It’s all your fault”
“Go to hell I snapped, and I stormed out of the hospital in anger.
It was past five in the morning; I hadn’t slept a single second tonight, and I wasn’t in the mood for it. I need her with me to calm down. I need her.

I admit I was a bit upset that William left early without saying goodbye, but I tried not to come up with theories and suffer ahead of time. Maybe he felt had because Brian found out.

“Don’t say anything.” he pleads. “Just stay with me.”
His voice is so soft, and he seems sad. I spent a few minutes trying to figure out what was happening. He caresses my waist, sending shivers down m In to my curiosity, I turned to fare him. William has his eyes closed while he caresses me; he looks last. I noticed a small cut at the corner of his mouth–a cut that my spine. Civing wasn’t there when I saw him at my party. I lift my hand and gently touch his face, and he sighs.
“What happened?” I ask
I watch his beautiful eyes open, and he looks at me intensely
“You’re still beautiful, even with messy hair and a crumpled face,” he chuckles,
“William.” I grumble, realizing what he’s trying to do.
“What’s wrong?” he asks.
“Don’t try to dodge it. Tell me, what happened?” I ask again.
“There’s nothing you need to worry about, he says, caressing my face,
I take a deep breath, thinking of a new way to approach the subject.
“Hmm… Why did you
you leave the party early?” I ask.
“I went to Angeline’s house,” he answers. Sometimes, his honesty amazes me. I try to pull away at the mention of that woman, but he holds me even tighter.
It might sound childish, but I’m jealous of him and her. I can’t help it.
I averted my gaze from him, looking at the ceiling. He laughs and gantly turns my face, so I’m looking at him again.
“I went to break off our engagement, he declared.
An involuntary smile escaped my lips, 1 couldn’t Even
“And why do you seem sad about it? Lasked.

Things didn’t go as planned,” he sighed wearily. “I intended to end this engagement and spend our evening together. To ease the longing that’s been destroying me… However, Angeline fell ill and well, and I spent the entire night at the hospital”
“Wow. Is she okay? Is the baby okay?” Lasked, concerned.
“Now she is. The doctor said she shouldn’t get stressed, he grumbled.
“And that in your mouth?” I traced around it with my finger, and be made a face

He nodded and closed his eyes. Eadmired every feature of his face.

“My night was terrible. My only thought when 1 left that damm hospital was that I needed my calm. I came here, and you were sleeping an peacefully, so serenely And believe it or not, just watching you sleep, I calmed down and felt a thousand times better,” he said.
“Love…” I spoke with a choked voice. I hated seeing him so vulnerable.
“You don’t need to say anything, I just wanted to ask you for one thing.” He opened his eyes again, looking at me now.
“Whatever you want,” I said,

You make me believe in life and that I’m a lucky man–lucky to exist, and even better, lucky to have you here with me. In my cloudy days, you’re my sun,” he said sincerely. And truly, his words conveyed so much confidence and truth to me.
1 caressed his face and slowly leaned in to seal our lips in a lingering kiss.
His soft lips against mine. De breaths intertwine.
William held onto the back of my neck and asked for entry with his tongue in my mouth. I yielded, of course. Making room to be kissed in a way I never have before. He explored my mouth with his tongue. And it’s such a delightful, slow kiss, yet it conveys so many feelings through this contact.
It’s as if both of us wanted to forever preserve this moment, this kiss.
William gave my lower lip a gentle bite, ending the kiss
“I could stay here forever,” he assured.
“I wish you would,” I said.
Tell me something, what did your dad give you for your birthday?” he asked,
I stared at William for a while. Of course, he knew what I had received.
you going to tell me you don’t know? I asked.
“I don’t know,” he said cynically. He can’t even lie.
“Ham…” I muttered thoughtfully. Tve got an apartment,” I revealed.
“We could christen it, shouldn’t we?” he asked,
You’re

“I not only knew, but I also suggested it and helped him choose,” he disclosed.
“What? Seriously?” I asked incredulously.
“What’s the big deal?” he asked cynically.
“You’re telling me you didn’t have ulterior motives when you suggested that? I accused.
“What do you think, princess?” he winked.
“You’re incorrigible
I never claimed to be virtuous,” he replied, giving me a quick peck, “But, come on, are we having an inauguration?”
Thavent even been thew yet… Can you take me?” I asked, biting my lip as I thought about our inauguration,
In my cloudy days, you’re my sun
“You can’t even hide that you were having inappropriate thoughts,” he pointed out.
“I could invite someone else to go with me,” I said nonchalantly.
In a swift motion, Williams was on top of me. He pinned my arms above my head and looked at me with fury.
“Don’t even think about it, Miss Julia.” He glared at me angrily. “No one, besides me, is going into that apartment. Are you hearing me?” he demanded.
1 nervously bit my lip and looked away, making him even angrier.
“Don’t provoke me,” he growled, nuzzling my neck. I shivered.
“I’m not doing anything, I defended myself.
“It seems like you need a good spanking to leam your lesson,” he whispered, kissing my neck.
“Am I being a naughty girl?” I asked in a low voice, and I knew it sounded extremely sexy because I felt his member pressing against my belly.
“Damn it, Julia. You little bitch, he cursed.
“Are you going to take me to my new apartment?” I asked, wrapping my leg around his waist.
“Now?” he asked.
“Now, I confirmed.
