Chapter 9 - The Expulsion

Two massive enforcers from Grant’s security detail rushed into the restaurant from the hallway. They grabbed Victor by the arms, dragging his bleeding, pathetic body toward the service elevators. He would never threaten Emily again.

Grant turned his attention to Vanessa, who was shaking uncontrollably in her gold silk dress.

"Grant, please," Vanessa whimpered, picking up her designer purse. "I didn't know!"

"Get out," Grant ordered coldly. "If I ever see your face in this city again, you will join Victor."

Vanessa didn't argue. She practically sprinted out of the restaurant in her high heels, completely abandoning her dream of marrying into the syndicate.

The restaurant was empty now, except for the terrified staff hiding in the kitchen.

Grant turned back to Emily. He looked down at her swollen stomach, then gently placed his large, warm hand over the baby. For the first time in his life, he felt a tiny, strong kick against his palm. The absolute awe on his face completely shattered his ruthless exterior.

"I am so sorry, Emily," Grant whispered, dropping to one knee right there on the marble floor. He looked up at her, tears in his eyes. "I will spend the rest of my life making this right. I swear to you."
