Chapter 48
Babe’s POV
She got a loan of billions from it, leaving us in bankruptcy. I got angry for this..which led to a hot argument breaking out.” He muttered, having this sad tune in his voice. He doesn’t look like someone that has gotten over her, perhaps he still loves her. I thought, wishing I’m wrong.

“She claimed right in what she had done, saying trash about me not caring about her financial status…I just don’t know what she wanted. When she was pregnant with Angel, I saw hell. She didn’t even care much about the child..all she wanted was her selfish desires.

I got to know later on that she was cheating on me with her ex boyfriend, whom I thought they had parted ways. He wanted a huge amount of money to set up a business. Her father couldn’t loan her the money, he was never in support of her wayward life…but her mum was her backbone..she never wanted her daughter to marry me in the first place.

Since she couldn’t get the money from her dad, and I wasn’t stable enough to give her money, being that my focus was on the company’s growth, she had to steal behind my back. She left after the heated argument, and never came back. I tried to reach her.. persuade her using Angel..trying to make her reconsider.

But she wasn’t moved; she doesn’t care about Angel..she never wanted a child too, the baby came as a mistake to her..she wanted the model body…she wanted to be perfect.” He whispered the last word. I heave a sigh

“But .do you have an idea of the location she went to?” I asked mincing my words

“No…I don’t even want her back…I have filed a divorce already…she isn’t fit to be my wife” he noted, looking up, as our eyes met, I broke it immediately. He looked elsewhere.

“You have been through a lot..so you took care of Angel..alone?” I asked. He shrugged. “She was just 1yr and few months when she left. My mother came along to help take care of the child for a while, cos I was broken, almost went into depression. We gat a nanny too…but none of them have been able to take good care of Angel like you have been doing” he stated, looking intently at me again.

“You are acting more like a motherly figure to her…thank you for making her happy”

“It’s..it’s my job sir..and I love Angel dearly” I noted. He smiled “Luciano..” he reminded me of his name. Opss, did I just call him sir again..I don’t think I can get over it.

“Babe” he called. I wonder why he suddenly switch to calling my first name, instead of the usual Miss Collins..or is it because we ain’t in a formal setting..perhaps that’s why he wanted me to call him but his first name too.
“Yes..” I responded, he cleared his throat.

“I was wondering if..you would be free tomorrow night..” he asked. I shrugged. It’s not like I am busy during the night…except checking up on Angel some times, and running to the kitchen to grab some bite of apples when I feel the urge to.

“No” “Ok..if that’s the case..I erm.. actually want you to do me a favour of being my date for tomorrow’s ball party. The State Governor is organizing a small party, strictly for business gurus to come talk business strategies and erm…have a little fun.

Actually I never wanted to go with a date, cos, I got no one to go with..but…I don’t know if you would like to..I don’t wanna act like I’m stressing you..”

“No you are not…it’s an honor to be your date for the night” I cut in..like who wouldn’t grab this opportunity. I have always fantasizes going on a ball party filled with influential people having rich accent..damn. But that will definitely mean getting new dresses that would conceal my bump for sure.

“Ok..I’m grateful..” he noted, getting on his feet. “Damn…it’s late ..sorry I kept you here for long” he chuckled
“Nahh…I also enjoyed the company” he nodded, stretching forth his hand with his palm widely opened.

“Come here” he muttered softly. I got uneasy again, taking steps forward. His eyes were on mine as I placed my hand gently on his palm. He squeezed my hand gently, caressing it with his thumb as he lifted it up to his lips. He left a soft peck on the back of my palm before speaking.

“A goodnight it is then” he winked. I shivered.

“Yes… goodnight… Luciano” I added, and watched him smile before walking out. What was I thinking..that he was gonna kiss me again…Babe, mind your thought. I scold myself. I went back to bed, happy about how the event went. But something keeps bothering me; my baby.

I should tell him that I’m four month gone for another man..he also needs to see my prodded tummy. What if he likes me..and later find it about the hidden truth..I won’t be able to stand the embarrassment. Well, I will tell him about it after the party..I can’t let that ruin going to the party.

Luciano’s POV
I suddenly felt a surge of relief after telling her about my past life. The urge to talk to someone had been on my mind..I couldn’t carry the burden alone. Yes I have friends, but none can take the part that Babe had played this night; none of them will quietly listen to me without making me feel like a coward.

Pecking her hand earlier, I felt something in me..strong enough to make me understand what I feel for her. I will just tell her about my feelings after the party.

Morning★
Morning came in a rush as every one in the mansion went for their daily duties. Babe had already planned her day before she slept last night. She had planned to visit the mall in order to get a perfect dress for the night’s party. But before hand, she would go with Angel to school as usual, and afterward branch to the mall to get her things.

“Hmm..this taste delicious” Angel muttered as she scoop the cereal Babe prepared for her as breakfast. Babe smiled, cleaning the side of her lips with a napkin. “Eat gently, you are staining your lips” she chuckled.

“Miss Babe…has dad gone to work?” Angel asked. Babe was yet to reply when a voice cut in
“Nope…And your Miss Babe won’t be taking you to school today” Luciano muttered striding down the stairs as he walked into the dinning room.

“Dad” Angel screamed out happily. “But why won’t she take me to school” she pouted. He looked at Babe before speaking.
“Because we are both going shopping” he noted, making Babe gasp.
