Donna and Ivan had done it a lot back in the office, and Ivan didn't want to disturb Donna since she was exhausted.This was Ivan's first time in Donna's apartment. He glanced around curiously at the arrangement of things in the small space.There was a small flat-screen television against the wall, two middle-sized sofas in the center, a center table with a flower vase, and a small kitchen on the other side.Donna was currently in the kitchen preparing some hot coffee for the two of them. While in the kitchen, she stole glances at Ivan, who was busily sizing up her living room.What she was most worried about was the fact that her bedroom and bed were small. She was sure the two of them would not be comfortable sleeping on such a small bed.Donna was soon done; she walked out of the kitchen and handed a cup to Ivan."Hmm, tastes great!" Ivan's lips curled up into a smile after taking a sip of the hot coffee.Donna sat beside him, switched on the television, and rested her head on his
Donna and Ivan dressed up and prepared for work.Ivan left earlier than Donna, and she followed behind him.Rachel met Donna on the way, and they both headed inside the company together."So, how are things between you and Elijah?" asked Donna."Oh... we didn't talk after whatever happened yesterday. I barely slept the whole night thinking about it," Rachel sighed helplessly. She didn't know exactly what to do."So what are you going to do now? Today is a whole new day. I think you should approach him and talk it out with him," said Donna."Talk it out? I can't. I can't bear it if he kicks me out of his office like he did yesterday," Rachel recollected whatever happened the previous day and sighed.Donna sighed and decided it was best not to talk about Elijah anymore.They both entered, and as usual, they met Emma at the receptionist desk. This time, however, she only glanced at them for a minute and looked away.After Donna and Rachel were gone, Emma lifted her head and glanced in th
Fortunately, it was Ivan's secretary who informed him that he was busy, and the secretary left.This time, Ivan did not do much with Rachel because they both had a lot of things to take care of.They both washed up, changed, and resumed back to their seats.Emma sat at the receptionist desk when she saw a familiar face walk in.It was Lucy, a popular businesswoman who was the role model of many women in the business industry.Emma had seen Lucy on television so many times and knew that Lucy was the ex-wife of the big boss.Lucy was a partner of SOHI SYSTEMS, so Emma knew her very well."Miss Lucy, how may we help you? Do you have an appointment?" Emma stood up from her seat with a polite smile."Who the hell are you?" Lucy rolled her eyes at Emma and bypassed the receptionist desk. She didn't see why she would need an appointment to meet her ex-husband. That damn Ivan definitely still had feelings for her, which was why he had agreed for them to be partners.Lucy knew the way to Ivan'
Ivan frowned since he didn't understand why Donna was silent and not responding to him."Are you angry?" asked Ivan, his heart skipped a beat.Donna stared straight into his eyes for a while before she chuckled.She wrapped her arms around his waist and planted a kiss on Ivan's cheek."I... I was just admiring you. You're truly the best."Ivan was stunned; he had thought that she was angry or jealous, but she said she was admiring him?"Tell me, why were you admiring me?" Ivan smiled."You're just so awesome. Your ex-wife even wants you back; my man is just so awesome.""So, you weren't jealous or angry?" Ivan was relieved and planted a kiss on her forehead.Meanwhile, Elijah had found a small house in the woods for him, Ivan, and Donna to move into.Rachel didn't know anything about it, and it worried him a lot that he had to leave her for a week.Was she going to be okay without him and Donna by her side? Elijah sighed and took a peek at Rachel, who seemed to be seriously working.H
Rachel's eyes widened with confusion. She knew that he knew that she had feelings for him because of what happened way back at the bar.But what she didn't understand was why he was suddenly bringing this up. Did he perhaps want to use it against her and fire her?"Sir..." Rachel's heart missed a beat when she spoke; she was somewhat scared and didn't know what to say."I know that you have feelings for me and... I... I also have feelings for you," Elijah immediately let the cat out of the bag.Rachel staggered back when she heard his words; she suddenly felt hot and wondered if there was something wrong with her.Had it become so serious that now she had begun to hallucinate?"You didn't hear wrong, Rachel. Whatever you heard was the truth; I said I have feelings for you," Elijah strode closer to her and held her in his arms."Sir..." Rachel's eyes fell on his arms around her and they widened. What was happening? What was going on? Did Elijah just say that he had feelings for her?"S
Ivan turned his head toward Donna when he realized that she was behaving oddly.Donna couldn't speak to Ivan's parents about what was happening to her, so she decided to confide in Elijah.She couldn't go out now because she had already gone out a lot, which was wrong; people might start gossiping.Donna took out her phone to text Rachel, but Rachel had already sent her a message a few minutes ago, informing her to head downstairs.It seemed like it was something urgent, so Donna had no choice but to inform Ivan and head out to meet Rachel.At this moment, Ivan received a phone call from Elijah."The house in the woods is ready; we'll move there together with Donna tomorrow," said Elijah."Right." Ivan rested his face in his palms and sighed. The moment he had been so scared of had arrived. It wouldn't be long before he and Donna had to part ways for almost a year."Also, my people caught two vampires the previous night. They were in our hostage, but they managed to escape.""Vampires
Donna's eyes rolled back, and she almost fell to the ground, but Ivan was fast enough and caught her in his arms.Ivan carried the unconscious Donna into a ward, and she was immediately surrounded by a group of doctors and nurses.After a while, they were done with the checkup, and the head doctor returned to Ivan with a smile."Mister, there's no need to worry. Your wife is perfectly fine, and I have good news as well. Your wife is pregnant. She's four weeks pregnant," the doctor stretched out his hand for a handshake to congratulate Ivan.Ivan shook the doctor's hand, but his mind still had not processed whatever the doctor had said, probably because he was too excited to process it.Ivan immediately turned around and rushed into Donna's ward; she had just woken up and was trying to sit up."What's going on? Where's my mother?" Donna wanted to get out of the bed and see her mother."Donna, calm down. Don't get too emotional; the doctor said you're pregnant with our baby," Ivan embra
Donna opened her eyes and saw both Ivan and Rachel standing by her bedside."You're awake," Rachel was the first to notice that Donna had opened her eyes."Donna," Ivan immediately smiled and grasped her hand.Donna seemed to look much better than before, but her eyes were still swollen since she had cried a lot back then."Ivan..." Donna tightened her grip around Ivan's hands.Rachel felt like she had to give the two some privacy, so she excused herself and stepped out.Elijah had gone to get some coffee and ran into her outside the ward."I decided to give them some privacy; she's awake," Rachel explained.Elijah nodded and walked closer to her."Are we... okay?" Elijah held her hand and looked into her eyes."I... okay? Ummm... are we dating?" Rachel herself was confused.Elijah didn't know how to respond; he had not told her about his true nature yet. It would be wrong to get into a relationship with her before telling her about himself."I have some things to sort out first; let'
