Celeste's POV
My legs wouldn't stop moving back and forth, across my room, the heels of my slippers scraping against the marble until the sound grated on my own nerves.
My heart was racing so fast as I now felt some regrets regarding forcing my way into this scheming family.
The phone call from my father replayed in my head like a broken record, making me even more nervous.
"Kendrick is crushing us, Celeste. Suppressing the company, blocking contracts, strangling us from every angle. He's moving against us and his aim might be to bankrupt us."
I had clutched the phone so tightly my nails left marks in my palm.
At this point, I had a feeling that he might already know the truth about my pregnancy.
He will definitely do everything to prove that he had no relationship with me just to be with Christy.
