Daxon’s body becomes frozen momentarily, he stares at Veronica inprofound shock. His face turns pale, and his hands pass through his hair as he struggles to comprehend how she ended up here.Veronica jolts in fear and looks at him. Her mouth slowly opens as if she is as confused as he is. She faces Lewis and Sydney, lifting the sheets to cover herself while pretending to be oblivious.“Oh my goodness! What are you guys doing in our room? Daxon, do something!” Veronica says and he looks at her in confusion.“What are you doing here?” Daxon says, it is evident on his face that he doesn’t remember anything or understand why his ex-wife that he has no business meeting is present in his hotel room, on his bed.“What do you mean by that? We are on the same bed, in a hotel room, what else would I be doing here?” Veronica says and Lewis holds Daxon. The heir of Bright group closes his eyes trying to put things in order, why can't he remember anything?Daxon’s face is disconcerted with rage, h

“It can’t be! There is no way I allowed that woman into my room, Lewis. I don’t understand. I can’t remember anything. How is it possible that I even drank?” Daxon says. Daxon impatiently thrust his arms into the shirt's sleeves, he yanks it aggressively, as if the fabric is the one that offended him. The acrylic buttons of his shirt are fastened in a flash, causing him to strain against the buttonholes in defiance. With a frustrated huff, Daxon downs his head into his palms and sighs.Lewis walks towards him, confused as to what happened inside that hotel room. They return to his personal home because he needed to think straight without Veronica’s version of what took place. “Boss, take it easy. I know for a fact that you would never go back to your ex-wife. I also know that you do not drink excessively like that.” Lewis says.“Then, why do I not remember anything!? If I didn’t drink, why don’t I remember anything!” He says, getting up from the sumptuous, oversized couch that practi

“Sir, please calm down. We have to treat this matter with ease unless it could blow out of proportion.” Lewis says, placing a hand on Daxon’s shoulder to calm him down.“Yes, we need to think rationally.” Sydney adds.“Veronica did this for a reason. She is trying to trap me.” Daxon whispers, closing his eyes and thinking deeper into the situation.“After what you have told me about your ex-wife, I’m sure she is doing this because of your wealth. She wants to cause problems.” Lewis says.Daxon rises and stares at his assistants. At this point, he is angry, tired and frustrated. “I want a list of every cleaning person who was working on the Lobby tonight. You are right, I cannot begin to investigate while we are hosting the Prince of UAE. However, tighten the security and no one should be allowed into the hotel as a visitor.”“Only registered members with access cards.” Daxon says.“I will contact the head of the department now.” Lewis says but before he can start making a phone call.

“You’re pregnant?” Daxon whispers and he doesn’t believe it himself. “Yes… I’ll forward the test results to you. I couldn’t believe it myself when I first saw it but…it’s true.”Daxon lightly smiles. It just became worse and now, he can see that Veronica tactically planned this. Due to the fact that he has no idea what happened that night, she can dump lies on him. “Daxon, can you hear me?” Veronica says, not daring to take a step closer because of his unpredictable reaction.“You are pregnant?” He says, once again and his voice is coarse, stripped of its rigidity because he can’t believe how far Veronica would take this. “I know you are finding this very hard to believe. We were both drunk but our child should not have to pay the consequences.” Veronica says, touching her stomach and referring to the fetus inside her. Daxon’s eyes fall to her belly and he won’t believe it. He doesn’t have the proof that she drugged him, all he knows is someone helped her. The alcohol on the floor
