Bitter Sweet2
"Sure," I replied as quietly as possible for fear of waking Axe.
"We need space. I need a one-on-one talk with you," he continued to which I only responded with a hesitant shake.Axe had just fallen asleep and I didn't want to wake him up at all. The poor guy was exhausted, I was afraid the slightest movement would wake him up."Just here, Dad." Yesterday in Axe's presence, Mr. O'Connor had asked me to call him by that title, there was no way I could refuse-he was also my father now."Axe could wake up if I move," I continued carefully. Incidentally, Mr. O'Connor had also told me to stop being so formal with him by not speaking too reluctantly."This is important. Xelle must not know what I'm going to say." Mr. O'Connor gave his son a worried look before finally turning to me with an unreadable look."Axe is already fast asleep. I'm sure he won't be able to hear our conversation."My sentence ends with a long sigh from Mr. O'Connor, who then walks over to

I stared blankly at the hospital skyline. It was time to remove the chip embedded in my body. According to the examination, Axe planted the chip in my left arm until it was now fused with the lower skin.I'm still at the same hospital with Mr. O'Connor as my personal doctor. He was going to perform a minor surgery to remove the chip in my body. It was quite a thrill to think that my hand would be dissected, and then the tiny nano-sized object attached would be removed in some way. I don't understand such actions, only a doctor or an expert can describe how they do such things.And before that, I will be sedated first so as not to feel pain during the operation, not Mr. O'Connor who sedated me, but the anesthesiologist in this hospital. Just like Axe, Mr. O'Connor is also powerful, let alone just renting an operating room-buy this hospital even I think he can.I don't know if the anesthetic has been administered to my body or not, but now my eyes feel heavy-not sleepy, and slowly the

"I'm asking you, Bridgette," he repeated, this time with a sharp look at me. I don't know, it was only with that piercing gaze that I couldn't help myself and immediately took a step, ran a little, then hugged his body tightly once there was no distance separating us.Maybe I threw myself so hard that Axe's body jerked backward in his completely unprepared state, but I didn't care ... even without him returning my hug, at least until this moment I could touch his body."What's going on?" asked Axe, getting provoked by my strange behavior. However, I ignored his question, still too busy inhaling the scent of Axe's body that I might miss."Bridgette!" Axe stomped over to my body, keeping me away from him by holding both my arms tightly. Unfortunately, it had enough of an effect on the part I'd been warning him about that I unconsciously let out a squeal.Axe's eyes bulge in surprise, then he spontaneously releases me who is still focused on the pain in my left arm
Brother Luck(not) Last Time Together
"Why quiet, Bridgette? You look sad, don't you want to carry my child?" Axe asked after I didn't respond for a long time. Of course he was still waiting for me to forget his original intention of touching me.Seeing Axe's changing facial expression, I quickly shook my head and forced a warm smile at him."I want to, but not now. I'm not ready yet.""Why?""I can't even take Oracle's attention, Axe. I'm sure you still remember Oracle's rejection had a bad effect on me."There was a sigh from the man who was still on top of me with a pitiful smile on his face. "Fine," Axe said amidst a flurry of warm caresses of my face."I'll wait until you're ready," he continued, then unexpectedly kissed my lips briefly and ended up crushing them roughly. Axe's hand moved to open the hoodie I was wearing, but luckily I quickly realized and immediately held his hand back."Why?" The same word came back from Axe's lips. In the last few minutes, how many times had he asked me that question?Axe clucked

"Thank you, Hem," I said as I smiled warmly at Mr. O'Connor's subordinate, Hema, who was in charge of driving me here. Earlier, before we got here, I had asked him to accompany me to shop for some essentials. Obviously I needed a change of clothes and an evening snack, my stomach had been very hungry since the two or three hour journey. Not to forget, I bought a new cell phone for other needs. Really, it felt bad to use the platinum card Mr. O'Connor had given me, but I had no other choice. Later, after I get a job here, I'll reimburse him for all the money I've used."With my pleasure, Miss. Everything has been prepared, you just need to rest, hope you feel at home here," Hema replied kindly as he unbuckled his seatbelt. I knew what he was going to do."No need, Hem. I can do it myself," I said quickly before Hema could do it.I casually opened the car door and carried my body out onto the perfectly cut grass. My breath came in ragged gasps as I noticed the cl

'Now the young master is doing well, Miss'I sighed at Hema's ambiguous reply. Now? He means yesterday Axe was in a bad state, is that it?'What was wrong with Axe before, Hem?'I quickly typed my question, then pressed the send button. My fingers tapped my chin as I waited for Hema's reply, even though it hadn't been a minute since I sent the man a message.'Did Axe hurt himself?"I sent Hema another message expressing my suspicion and it turned out that what I had been afraid of happened. Hema's reply sparked anxiety that made guilt gnaw at my chest.Axe had injured himself to such a degree that he needed a blood donor. Earlier, a message from Hema said Axe had had an argument with his father. Axe wasn't stupid and could definitely guess who the person who took me away was, he suspected the right person.Unfortunately in the middle of their argument, Axe suddenly ended the endless argument by leaving Mr. O'Connor who was also fiery in the face of Axe's stubbornness.But what makes m
Brother Luck(not) Another Unexpected Fact
It's been a week since I've been here, but it doesn't make me feel calm every time I think about how Axe is doing today. Hema still sends me news about him sometimes, but for some reason I can't help but feel that something hasn't happened to Axe. I think Hema was pressured by Mr. O'Connor not to tell me the details of Axe's condition, so I had to guess and ended up having a headache myself.Actually, I've had a headache for the past few days, probably worrying too much about Axe and missing out on a good night's sleep while missing him. I can't stand being separated from him this long, the desire to meet him seems unstoppable. Oh, I'll talk to Mr. O'Connor about letting me see Axe again.Now I'd better fill my empty, struggling stomach. Alicia must be in the kitchen preparing breakfast for me, I should catch up with her. However, I've only just set foot in the kitchen. I had to be rewarded with the nauseous feeling of smelling the onion aroma emanating from Alicia's cooking on the s

I had to move!I quickly wiped my face and got up from my sitting position. Standing still without doing anything was a detrimental choice. After all, it was already done, I just needed to carry on and take good care of God's gift to me."How did it go, Bridgette?" I hadn't even taken a step out of the bathroom, but Alicia was first to pepper me with questions.I smiled warmly, doing my best to hide the sad look that was still on my face. Alicia couldn't see my unpleasant expression, I didn't want to worry her. Yes, don't forget we had only known each other for a week. "I'm pregnant."Alicia's response was unexpected. She squealed with excitement and hugged me tightly. Oh my goodness. Who's actually pregnant here?"Congratulations, Bridgette! You're going to be a mom," she said excitedly with a happy smile after separating herself from me."I've been a mom before," I replied until Alicia's eyes bulged in disbelief."Really? I can hardly believe it, y
Brother Luck(not) Complicated
My sentence was cut off by a loud knock from outside. I immediately turned my head to the source of the sound with a horror-struck gaze.My heart pounded at the thought that I was alone at home. Alicia had only left a few hours ago to go shopping for kitchen supplies. She had invited me, but I chose to stay because I felt lazy. My eyes grew wide as I realized something.Who was the person outside?Is it Axe? Hema and I had just discussed it, in other words, he was most likely the one who was knocking on the door rudely - seemingly impatiently.Should I open the door now? What if Axe blows up at me or worse punishes me for leaving that guy. Oh, I don't want to risk making him even angrier. I'd better open the door for him.My hand moved quickly to turn the lock, then pushed the knob down and the door leaf that was the barrier between me and the outside world opened quite wide.Somewhat unexpectedly I saw a figure standing stiffly with an unreadable cold g
