Daniel Carter came home almost two hours earlier than expected.<\/p>\n

The luxury penthouse was unusually quiet.<\/p>\n

Then he heard a child crying.<\/p>\n

Daniel walked quickly toward the living room.<\/p>\n

He stopped in the doorway.<\/p>\n

His daughter Sophie was crouched on the carpet, holding tightly onto Emma, the family nanny.<\/p>\n

Daniel’s expression changed instantly.<\/p>\n

Victoria.<\/p>\n

What is going on?<\/p>\n

Victoria lowered her arm.<\/p>\n

Emma opened her mouth.<\/p>\n

Victoria immediately interrupted.<\/p>\n

She fell.<\/p>\n

Daniel turned toward her.<\/p>\n

Then why is she afraid of you?<\/p>\n

Victoria said nothing.<\/p>\n

Emma tightened her arms around Sophie.<\/p>\n

Daniel stood slowly.<\/p>\n

And for the first time since entering the room, Victoria looked nervous.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
