Chapter 99 - Honesty (1/2)

That instant, Mira's face turned pale. She didn't dare to turn her head around because she knew that voice belongs to the man whom she had tried to avoid so much.

Nathalie and Ambrose smiled towards the comer as the comer pulled a chair and sat beside Mira.

”Baby, I missed you so much!” He said and snuggling to her, tugging on her arm.

The sight of the two of them being intimate made the other couple to smile widely.

”Danny honey, where have you been since this morning?” Nathalie asked softly. Her motherly love overflowed the moment she asked the question. It had been years since they spoke.

Danny, happily answered, ”I've been busy, moving all of her stuff from her apartment into my penthouse.”

Mira who listened to their conversation was so shocked. Moving her stuff into his penthouse? His penthouse?!

She eyed the chatty man and a smile broke on her face. Ah, she must be in a very long dream. Danny Stanford never had a penthouse!

During their relationship, he brought her to his house that is much smaller than her apartment. He even dressed humbly although he was a womanizer who would always hook up with any woman he finds beautiful and interesting.

”Baby, are you okay?” Danny asked and suddenly caressed her flat stomach, ”Have you eaten for our child inside?” He asked.

Mira laughed out loud like a madwoman. She was breaking down because of stress. She couldn't process everything that happened all around her. She couldn't think properly. Her head just stopped working over the stress!

Everything goes wrong on their last night in Country N, she found Danny sleeping by her side, upon waking up he said he loved her and wanted to marry her. Then, as soon as they returned to Country D, he tailed her asking her to marry him.

She kept running away from him when he suddenly tried to get her thumbprint for a marriage registration form. Then, she was kidnapped from home and was brought to meet his parents out of the blue.

She just doesn't know what she should do about her situation at the moment. She wanted to flee but she couldn't flee from them. She was surrounded by people that she didn't know.

”Baby...” Danny called out for her with a concerned expression.

”Am I your wife?” Mira asked out of the blue after she had calmed down from her laughter. The laughter of stress.

”Yes, we're married. Here, is our marriage license.” Danny handed her a license in pink colour.

Mira glanced at the license and she saw her name and his together. That instant, her eyes were watery and tears flowed down non-stop down her cheeks.

The people around her panicked over her sudden cries. Danny immediately knelt before her, persuading her non-stop to stop crying.

An hour later, Mira finally gained her senses. The two of them were left all alone at the gazebo to have some time alone to talk among them.

”Why did you do this to me?” Mira asked him.

”Because I love you with all my heart,” Danny admitted. ”We will be a mom and dad soon, so I want our child to have both parents by their side.”

”Danny, this is not like the real you that I know,” Mira said. Her eyes were red as well as her nose. She had been crying her heart out.

”This is the real me, baby...” He replied, ”Also, I have informed this Susan Banner, the Human Resources in your company about our marriage as well. She sends us her congratulatory.”

”What?” Mira trembled in her seat.

”Also, I have made arrangements for you and Jennet to meet this evening after she ended her work. Baby, go and meet her at Thousand Island Bar later and apologize to her. Let bygones be bygones since you're my wife now.”

”Danny, what are you talking about?!” Mira suddenly had the intensity to get angry.

Meet that Jennet Lockhart? It was all because of her that her life had now turned into a mess!

”Baby, whatever ill-thought you have of her, let perish it for the better of both parties. Ask for forgiveness and be forgiven for whatever she may have done upon you. I don't want my wife to live in regret for the rest of her life.”

”Ill thought? Danny, what nonsense are you talking about?”

”If you think of it as nonsense then, still you had to meet her and apologize. I've heard so many bad things about you from the mouth of your other colleagues but never once I heard Jennet bad mouth you.”

”What?”

”Well, I have been tailing Jennet and wanted to know the truth about her and I found out that most of your colleagues were never really your good friends. They are just trying to gain your favour by badmouthing Jennet. You were surrounded by snakes all these years and Jennet is innocent.” Danny told her.

Mira couldn't believe what she heard from his mouth. Danny had been doing something behind her and yet she didn't know about it. How can he change so much overnight?

”I have no reason to meet her or to apologize to her. She's a rival of my love!” She fumed at him. Her anger rose in a sudden.

”Baby, you're my wife! For once just stop chasing after that Luca! I am your husband!” Danny's voice rose as well.

”I don't love you!” Mira said out loud at his face.

Danny bit his lips over her words. Her words were so painful. She doesn't love him? Not a bit?

”Baby, why would you say such empty lies to your own husband? You do love me.”

”I do not!”

”You do and for whatever reason were we so attached to each other for a year? You said, you normally will be with your boyfriends for up to a month but with me, it was up to a year. You do love me. It's just that you're just confused because of your obsession towards that Luca.”

”I honestly love Luca!”

”No, you don't. The love you thought was just a plain obsession. You were just so obsessed with him that drove you blind for years. With all the talks from those snakes around you, your mind was twisted.”

”I am not crazy!” Mira cried out loud. ”Danny, I really don't love you! You're just a man that I found to be good in bed and that's it. Nothing more.”

Danny chuckled after hearing her words. She was still so far away from knowing her own feelings. Her obsession was mistaken for love. Such a naive woman.

”Mira, Mira...” He shook his head.

She was so stupid for defending a fictional love. Truthfully speaking, he honestly loved her and he dumped all of his girlfriends because of her. All the talks about starving for months were just empty talks to make sure Mira thought he was a man with many women while with her. He wanted to live the image of the bad boy that she thought he may be.

Danny locked eyes with the fuming woman and then he said a confession that came from the bottom of his heart.
