View MoreNathan's POVShe was misunderstanding my intent and I didn't like it one bit. She had to realize that the only reason why I kept the news away from her was because I didn't know how she was going to react and then telling her just proved why I should have kept it to myself so she could just find out by herself but I was trying to prepare her from the tremendous shock and pain she was going to fill when she had that her top investors were planning on pulling out but I doubt if I had achieved that. In fact, I might have just made it worse.I wondered where she had stepped out too. I contemplated chasing her but decided against it because I reasoned that she might really need to clear her head and think straight and also realize that I only have her best interest in mind.I sighed and rubbed my temples, feeling a headache coming on. These headaches had become a constant this days and it was crazy because we were supposed to be on a vacation but we still had to deal with stupid stuff lik
Rayne's POVIt seemed like a normal statement but I knew it was not because of the way that he said it.What truth was he talking about?"What do you mean by truthfully? Have we been lying to each other about something?" I raised an eyebrow at him and he sighed"Not lying per say but yes, I've been keeping something from you that I believe I shouldn't have"He took my hand in his and it took me a lot not to withdraw them because I didn't know what he was going to say next."What is it Nathan?"Another sigh escaped his lips, "I've been meaning to tell you but I've been so unsure" he was stalling and she knew it"Tell me already please. What is it?" I asked again. His hands left mine and I wished it was still on mine cause I was scared"It's about your company" he went silent and I remained silent too, waiting for him to tell me what the problem was once and for all"One of your investors is going to pull out soon" he said it as if he was so sure of his words and my heart felt like it w
Nathan's POV I was angry. Too angry in fact.The argument between Rayne and I left a sour taste in my mouth but worse than that was the tension in the air. I really didn't want to fight but if she was going to act like she didn't see the issue with what I was saying then I believed it was a necessity after all. I had brought us here so we could just forget about the issue in New York for some weeks but she kept checking in on what is happening even when there was really no need and coupled with the fact that I knew of the news that awaits her, I wasn't liking it one bit.The sun beating my back was even more infuriating and no matter how much I tried to ease the heat, it wasn't working and my frustration grew even worse.I had planned this vacation for her to leave the stress of New York behind, but instead, it seemed like she had brought it with her.I understood her but I've always thought her manner of approach was wrong and I always told her that while still supporting her. I kn
Rayne's POVNathan had disconnected our WiFi and I was pissed. Yesterday I had wanted to log into my laptop and do some work when I noticed that the WiFi was not connecting and after trying I gave up only to bring it up later that evening when he returned from his stroll with Leo."I was trying to connect to the WiFi but it wasn't connecting, maybe you should check if it okay" I was standing in front of the mirror, applying my face mask but when he didn't reply, I turned to see him just sitting on the bed and reading a book"I'm talking to you Nathan. Didn't you hear what I said?" He took his time to look up from the book to me " I heard you Rayne. I disconnected it."Maybe it was the way he said it that irritated me "What do you mean you disconnected it? Why did you do that?"He sighed. "We're on vacation, remember? No work allowed. You need to relax and unwind, not be stuck to your laptop."I huffed, my frustration rising. "But I had some important things to attend to today""Impo
Rayne's POVThe scorching sun beat down on us while we waited for our guide to get to us. I had found this cool offer on one of the restaurants brochure about camel riding and I had convinced Nathan that we needed to try it out and he had immediately agreed because Leo also got excited about it too.From the brochure, I saw that we were going to ride through the Atlas Mountains so I had gone to the local market near our house and bought some sunglasses and scarves too to protect our eyes and face from the sand particles."Mummy, I look cool with this glasses. Just like Batman" Leo posed like he was about to take off into the sky and I ruffled his hair and laughed. "Yes you do my Batman. Now we have to head out before we run late" I adjusted his clothes and took his hand in mine to go meet his father who was waiting for us outside.We walked out of the house and found Nathan waiting for us, a huge smile appearing on his face when he saw looking all stylish and it turned into a full bl
Rayne's POVI had slept throughout the trip and had only woken up when Nathan shook me gently to say that we were at the Moroccan airport. Leo had fallen asleep too and he didn't wake up when we arrived instead he slept until were already booked into the little beautiful house I chose at the resort. I had not wanted a hotel room so I got the house instead. The trip had been long and tiring mostly because I had slept throughout but I was glad that we were finally here, in this beautiful Moroccan resort. The beauty of it was breathtaking.When I had seen it online, I had just known it was the right house but seeing it in real time it was magnificent. The living room had such a cozy vibe to it, the tiles were colorful and the furnitures screamed royalty. This was exactly what we needed - a home away from home.I had just finished taking a shower and gotten dressed when I heard Leo stretch and yawn, finally waking up from his long sleep. "Where are we, Mummy?" he asked, rubbing his eyes w
Nathan's POVWe finished packing quicker than expected and then we decided to just spend some time together before going to bed. Leo had dosed off on my laps and Rayne and I spent the night talking while we took the ice cream that she had brought home.I watched her as she told me about her childhood and how she misses her father and I just stared at her, unable to wrap my head around how she could be this beautiful.This trip was for her to get some rest but most importantly, it was for her to be away from here when the problem that was right at her door breaks in. Before she came home that night after her party to celebrate her win against Elliot. I had gotten a call from my private investigator and he had told me that Elliott didn't plan on just accepting defeat and I wasn't surprised but what he said next surprised me so much, I couldn't say anything for a whole minute.Rayne's most top investors were planning pulling out of her company and it was because of the smear campaign Ell
Rayne's POVAfter much contemplation and searching online for the best place to visit, I finally settled for a beach resort in Morocco because it looked so beautiful on the site that I just had to see it in person and experience it in real life."Morocco sounds like a fun idea and if you think it's the best place then it is" Nathan placed a small kiss on my lips before he left for work. I smiled to myself, pleased that he actually valued my opinion."Leo, aren't you ready yet?" I called out to Leo who was still not out of his room. We were going to his school in order to take an excuse for him to leave school so he can come on the vacation with us and just as Ethan had planned, we were going with the sickness option and telling them that Leo has to be checked out because he had a rare sickness. It was crazy but we had no other choice "Coming, Mummy!" Leo shouted back, finally coming down the stairs with his backpack on and a big smile on his face.I chuckled and shook my head. "You'r
Rayne's POVI slept on the suggestion of a vacation and I woke up thinking that it was actually a very brilliant idea. I had worked hard for the back months and I had finally achieved something that I had set my heart and mind completely to so it was only right that I celebrated it in a big way.Zara had already set breakfast on the table by the time I got down and not long after, Nathan who I had left sleeping came down, freshly showered and looking as good as usual in his business suit.He kissed me on the cheek and sat down for breakfast"So I'm hoping you've thought about our conversation yesterday night and now see reason why we have to go on this vacation right?" He asked while he chewed and I frowned at him for that"Hey, no pressure or anything," I said, laughing and rolling my eyes. "But yes, I did think about it, and I agree. A vacation sounds amazing right about now."Nathan grinned, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "I knew you'd see it my way. So, I've already started m
