I immediately swallowed hard because I saw his serious face. Well, he's always been like this, but now he's very serious, and it seems like he's hard to talk to. I don't see any boss in his face, which is why, even though I feel nervous now, I won't miss that opportunity. "I need to talk to you," I answered. One of his eyebrows was slightly raised, so I kept looking at him. I don't know how to start! "What is it? Tell me right away because I need to rest," he said to me. I swallowed again because there was something different about him now. Why does he seem to talk to me differently now? I feel something about his behavior tonight, especially talking to me just now. Because I didn't know how to start telling him, I just took my printed ultrasound from my bag. Both of my hands were shaking while I took it. I don't care if he's tired now and needs to rest as long as I don't let this night pass so I can tell him I'm pregnant and he's the father. "H-Here," I said, then handed him th
Tito Christian's voice sounded like thunder when we heard that. Lucas immediately approached his two brothers to wean them. They both stopped because our parents were already there. I closed my eyes tightly because it was not in this situation that I wanted to tell them everything, but Sabrina there just whispered to me to cheer me up. The door was closed, and we were the only family inside. I was surprised when I looked at Mom and Dad with surprised faces as they looked at me with puffy eyes. "Why did you call us, Lisette? And what should we talk about? Is there a problem?" Daddy asked one after another. "Good news or bad news?" asked Mommy. "Both," answered Aunt. "Then let's start with the good news," said Lucas, who also had no idea. Aunt Lisette looked at me and nodded to me as if to signal that I was the one to say it, but I shook my head because I felt my tongue suddenly retract. "Lily's pregnant, and the father is my son, Cristiano, Aunt Lisette answered directly. "What
That was a lot of fruit, and I was suddenly hungry, even early. I saw that it had no effect on Janeth, so I took some and also ate while signing my papers. Just a few moments later, my phone rang, so I immediately looked at it. It was just a text, but Liam had a message, so I immediately read it because it might be important. From Liam: I hope you like the fruits. Eat all of that to keep you and the baby healthy. I smiled because those were from him. I suddenly remembered his suggestion last night that he should marry me and take on the responsibility that Cristiano should do. I don't want that to happen because I'm sure Liam and our friendship will be wasted if we get married to each other. I want him to be happy, and he will not be happy when I become his wife. I'd rather suffer than see him hurt because of me. To Liam: Yeah, I received it. Thanks Liam! I put my phone aside when I was able to reply to him and continued what I was doing. I just signed and signed again there,
"Get on the elevator first. I'll just follow. You'll see my bodyguards waiting downstairs," Cristiano told me. We're in front of the elevator now, and I'm just waiting for it to stop there. He was maybe two meters away from me, and he really didn't come close. I smiled and nodded to him because it was better that we were not together in the elevator. It would be embarrassing if I vomited there, and it might suddenly spread to the whole company that I was pregnant. When the elevator opened, I was very thankful because there was no one else on it, so I quickly entered. Cristiano and I looked at each other as the elevator door closed. I could see his serious looks at me as if he were thinking very deeply. The two of us just stared at each other until the door finally closed. Only three minutes passed until I got down to the parking area. Two men greeted me immediately while one was talking on the phone. "Yes, boss. The architect is with us." I heard him say this, so I smiled sparing
"You will only hurt the girl you love the most if she finds out about this. I can talk to Dad and even your parents," I said to Cristiano. "She hurt me too. One more thing, we can't convince our parents. I know Dad and also your father; that's why they got along for a long time," he explained to me one after the other. I was speechless because what he said was true, but I still wanted to try. We know that this time they will give us permission. "You probably understand why I don't want the two of us to get married, right?" he added. I nodded to him and held my breath. "I don't want us to get married, but I promise you that I can take care of you and our baby. I will not abandon you, and I will support you in everything," he continued. "I agree with you and thank you for that, Cristiano. We can agree on things like that, but the only problem we have right now is our parents," I told him one after the other. He nodded as he drank his beer. When he finished, he immediately wiped h
"Go! Spill the tea!" Stella said. They have been teasing me for a while to tell them that they should know, but I didn't tell them until the order of the four of us arrived. When all the food was served, they carved me again. "Can we eat first? At least two bites. I've been hungry for a while," I told them. I saw the two struggling at the same time, so I just laughed and started eating. They did the same thing, and I was able to hang it up and tell them that I was having second thoughts. They will also know about it in the next few days or weeks, so I don't want to prolong it. The three of them just sat there quietly while eating, looking at me as if they were waiting for me to speak again. I laughed at my nervousness and took a deep breath before finally speaking. "Don't be surprised, okay?" I told them. "Oh, come on, Lily. We can't promise that," Caroline replied. I laughed again and nodded. "I'm five weeks pregnant," I said. I looked at the three of them to see their react
"What are you trying to emphasize, Liam? Don't tell me that you're still insisting on what you want?" Tito Christian asked Liam. We just stayed there quietly, and I looked back and forth at them. Tito kept looking at Liam as if waiting for someone to answer him while Liam sat lazily. He just looked at the fork he was holding and didn't say a word. "What you want to happen is impossible, Liam son. Yeah, we're family, but you're not involved here," said Aunt Lisette. "Mom and Dad are right, Liam. Just because you love Lily and Cristiano doesn't want to marry her doesn't mean you can take that responsibility," Lucas said now. They were quiet for a while when someone served us food, so Sabrina and I just looked at each other. Mom and Dad's eyes were busy with the food that was placed on the table. When the service crew left, Liam spoke again. "Lily will only be hurt if you marry her to a man who loves someone else. I love Lily and I can give the love that she deserves. Cristiano can'
It was my first day at Cristiano's house, and he just drove me there because he said he had a meeting. It was afternoon, and he even wanted to get a maid from their house or our house so that I could be with someone while he was away, but I stopped him. I feel like I'm more comfortable when I don't have a maid to help me. Cristiano's house is big, and that's not the house where he took me when something happened to us. I wouldn't be surprised if he has a lot of houses because he is a billionaire. He told me to eat what I wanted to eat because his refrigerator was full and to feel at home because it was for the two of us. We will not actually live there because he is still renovating the actual house we will be staying at. I didn't have work that day; that's why Cristiano's house was so big. I was really bored. I toured that house alone just so I could do something until I got to the master's bedroom. Just like in his previous room in one of his houses, the light there was dim. It's
