Dante’s POV
when | had left Frederick’s office my temper had only just been simmering beneath the surface but with each mile that | drove
back to the house my anger had reached a boiling point.
not only was | in a constant stage of irritation on a normal day whenever | would think about the predicament Phoebe and her
family had tied me down to but knowing just how scheming and the amount of lies that they had spoken in order to guilt me into
even giving into such a decision was enough to have me do some things drastic given the gravity of my anger at present.
knowing what I knew now there was no way | was going to allow her to put me in such a position of doubt that she could get me
into doing what she wanted me to do.
| cut the engine the moment my car had reached the paved area just below the steps leading to the main entrance. | wasted no
time in getting out of the car and entering the house but | tried to be as sneaky and silent as possible. it was not usual for me to
return back home so soon once | had left in the morning so Phoebe would not even be expecting my return leaving me in the
perfect position to catch up guard.
And, my god, did | catch you off guard.N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
her voice could be heard from the foyer and seem to grow louder as a moved in the direction of the drawing room. at first |
assumed that she had been speaking to someone in person but as | need the arch of the drawing room | found that she was
alone. her back had been facing towards me and she had no idea of my presence. she held her phone to her ear and toyed with
her hair as she spoke in a very soft and almost seductive tone.
she had already been all dressed up but that was not unusual for Phoebe since she had always enjoyed making up her face and
doing her hair and getting dressed in the mostvish dresses.
“if you want we can meet at the usual spot. I''d invite you home but things are still very unsettled at the moment and | do not want
Dante suspecting anything between us. “Pheobe spoke in to the phone with no caution or care,
| hid my self behind the wall when | suspected that she was about to turn and this definitely sounded like a conversation that |
wanted to be eavesdropping on.
“| know but if we are so much as spotted together then it would give him the chance to suspect that this child is not his. Right
now he believes that he was the only man in my life and he does not want this child anyways. Thest thing | want to do is give
him a chance to believe it.” She spoke so casually about it like this was all a damn joke to her.
“It is our child but Dante doesn’t need to know that, Demetri. You know how delicate the situation is. It’s just for a few months.
Once he marries me then | will file for divorce. It’s all part of the n sweetheart. You just have to be patient then we can frolick
freely to out hearts content.” Pheobe’s tone held a great amount of glee and ambition to it but to me, she had just put all the
puzzle pieces in to ce.
| knew all that | needed to know. What ever she had just said removed any room for assumptions and made everything that
Frederick discovered facts.

It was finally time to make myself know. | stepped out from behind the wall and stood right in the arch. Pheobe saw me instantly
and her face went as white a sheet of paper almost like she had seen a ghost in broad day light.
“Surprised to see me?” | asked with no trace of lightness or humour to my words. Nothing could be heard but red hot anger.
The phone from her hand quickly cut and fell to her side as she stared at me with widen eyes that were the size of saucers.
“D- Dante,” She stuttered baffled at what to say hi it also trying to gage how much of her conversation | had listened to. ‘Is isn’t
like you to be home so early. Did you forget some thing?” She tried to maintain a neutral tone but her face was now flustered as
she panicked.
“Cut the act, Pheobe. | know about every thing.” | warned her not in the mood for her to try and cover this up to suit her better.
“| have no idea what you are talking about.” Her eyes darted to her phone thaty on the floor. “Oh, that, | was just talking to my
mother. She lied which only made me more annoyed about it all.
“Funny since | can’t recall when your mother changed her name to Demitri.” | pointed out and she swallowed audibly as her
nerves shot up around her.
| stepped further in to the room and saw her get ufortable but | didn’t care. From here on out, | couldn’t give two shits what
happens to her.
“| always knew that the child you carry has never been mine. | am never so drunk to not recall events and | wondered why |
could never remember that night you speak of and that was because nothing happened. You put me to bed and | passed out. We
never had S*x that night as you so imed but-” | grinned at her but nothing to be friendly just enough for her to get intimidated
and she did.
“You did meet Demetri on the same day where you guys shared a long time a motel together. Tell me, Phoebe, was it before or
after this did you scheme to trap in a marriage for a child that wasn’t mine just so you could divorce me and take half of what |
owned leaving you a rather wealthy woman but, too bad, your ns will nevere to fruition.” | mocked her holding on to that
because so god help me if | gave in to my anger.
“You- you have got this all wrong. | promise you.” She began pleasing but she could cry blood for all | cared.
“Please, do not think | am stupid enough to be fooled again by you. | know your true colours and nothing will change my mind
now. You and your scheming family can go to hell.” | snapped at her, my voice loud enough even for my own ears.
Phoebe jumped back a little and | waited for her to speak but she was too stunned, too shocked that her grand n came
crushing right before her very eyes,
“| want you to pack your things and get the fuck out of my life for good!” | yelled at her but that only triggered her own bitterness.
| saw it bleed in to her eyes and watches as she squared her shoulders ready to fight.
Chapter 47
“Fine. I''ll get the fuck out of your life but don’t for a single second assume that Sophia would take you back. What do you think?
that by getting rid of me all your problems would be solved? Th Sophia will ept you and you can finally be a father to
child that she keeps hidden from you?” My head snapped up when she mentions Hayley.
“What did you just say?” | muttered demanding to know.
Her eyes flickered and her I*ps pressed together in amusement. “Ah, she hasn’t told child being yours but | can’t me her. At
one point, after she tried to tell you about her pregnancy
you about the that day in your office when | returned and your refused to hear her out, | had taken it upon myself to eradicate
that child before it was born but, unfortunately, | failed but I’m d today that | did because it will make you realise how many
years you''ve missed out on being a father to your child that needed you desperately.” She retorted and my hands balled up on to
fists.
“You attempted to harm her baby while she was newly pregnant?” | yelled louder than | had expected and she winced realising
how she fucked up by admitting to it but her anger made her abandon all reason and logic.
“Yes but only because | wanted her out of your life for good. She admitted and | was ready to tackle her to the ground had she
not been a damn woman.
“It is now you who will be leaving my life for you. As for that boyfriend of yours, I’m not done with him yet. His crimes are also well
know and the life you imagined you’d live together after looting me of my money will never evere to light. He will be behind
bars again, Pheobe, | promise you that. He can run and hide but we will find him and | will make sure he rots away in prison.” |
vowed to her and saw her look scared for the first time in the years that | had known her for.
“Get out of my house before the day ends or | will throw you out myself.” | warned her before turning around and leaving the
house entirely.
| couldn''t stand being in the same space as her without thinking of harming her for what she had done. The only thing | needed
to focus on now is winning Sophia back and taking my ce as a father in Hayley’s life.
