Carrying the Don's Baby Chapter 27: Cooking Gone Wrong
I just laughed at him and ran towards the deeper part of the sea. When the water was up to my waist, I swam until I couldn't reach the sand. "Don't go too far!" I didn't listen to him. Instead I swam to the deeper part and dived there. I spent some time underwater because I was chasing a group of small fish. I was short of breath when I decided to float but I almost swallowed the wave that hit the side of my face because in the sand I saw Edmund remove the belt. When he removed it, he simply threw it away and followed his pants until nothing was left but boxer shorts. I coughed even though I didn't drink any water, trying to be conscious but my eyes seemed to narrow on Edmund's body that was shining with the setting sun. I felt like I was slowly gasping for breath as I watched him swim towards me. "You're still a good swimmer until now." "Huh?" none of my own behavior while mesmerized by his smiling face. "I said you still haven't changed-" "Ah yes... Yes... I'll go there fi

The bodyguard arrived with a small first aid kit. Edmund put ointment on the burns and cleaned the small cuts on my hand with alcohol and cotton."You're always troubling yourself," he said when he finished what he was doing.I just snorted.I would like to reason that we won't have anything to eat if I don't cook but I know he won't accept it for any reason."It’s here!"We both turned to the source of the shrill voice and that was all Paul was pale. He regained his 'boyish' stance and then nonchalantly walked towards us."Breakfast is here."He put down what we both cooked and my face was almost red when I saw some burnt bacon there, I'm sure it was me.When he properly landed that in front of him, he straightened up and winked at me. The corner of my lips lifted because I knew he was just saying goodbye to admire the person next to me.Edmund faked a cough so we caught a glimpse of him.His eagle eyes watched Paul."We don't need any more, you can leave now."My eyes widened sudden

It took us both a while to find what we needed. A saleslady there even helped because we couldn't really find the brand of mayonnaise that Edith was buying. It was at the top so we didn't notice. I fell on the bed when I got home. We even had a late lunch at an eatery, where I also washed my legs. We were interrupted on the way because we met two children, one of whom was bleeding from the head. The only doctor at the island's hospital said it was just a small cut, but because I panicked, we took him to the emergency room. We waited for the parents and settled the bill before leaving. "There will be dinner..." Edmund reminded. He just came out of the bathroom, already showered. "I'll set the tub on warm water, do you want?" he asked while combing his hair. "Yes please..." He returned to the bathroom and prepared my bath. I almost fell asleep there if Edmund hadn't knocked to say that dinner was ready, I wouldn't have moved to take a shower. I came out of the bathroom with only

I clutched my chest in surprise. "Oh I thought you had a lot of paperwork and online meetings? Why are you here?" I wondered. He didn't look at me. His narrowed eyes focused only on Paul who was on the far side of me. "A-Ah, sir, I'll go first..." Paul said softly. Paul beckoned to him and quickly left the kitchen at the hour mark. "I'm just going to get some water," Edmund said and went straight to the fridge as if nothing had happened. I frowned because in my old age there was a mini fridge and water dispenser in his office. I folded my arms as I watched him drink water. He also washed the used glass and put it back in the container after drying. "I have a meeting with Canadian investors. Are you going to do something?" I immediately shook my head. Maybe I'll just sleep in the hammock at the back of the house. "I might need a secretary with me, want to come?" My eyes widened suddenly because what Paul said resonated with me. "Lily?" he said. I blinked and immediately gr

A fancy car picked us up and took us to a tower with a large MRT symbol. When owned by Edmund’s family."Are you meeting someone here?" I asked as he helped me down to the car.He slipped his arm around my waist and then faced the entrance of the building."This is our new home."My jaw dropped as I tried to register what he said in my brain."But don't you have a house in...""It's more convenient here, closer to work. I don't have to leave you at home all the time, I can work from here."I felt like I was floating while passing the employees we passed. They all greeted us constantly.I almost fainted at the grand design in every corner of the hallway we walked.I swallowed when I saw the reflection of the two of us in the elevator mirror. He was wearing a button down gray long sleeves and black pants while I was wearing a red pant suit.Fortunately, I also thought of wearing aviators like Edmund so I wasn't left out even staring at him.The penthouse is also large and has three floo

My brain seemed to be flying while entering the car in the mall parking lot. Edmund came down first and opened the door for me.I was even more nervous and every now and then someone would look at the behavior of the two of us, usually they would be dumbfounded by him or maybe they would ignore our holding hands.We only spent two hours at the mall because I got bored at the arcade and wanted to go home.We were just about to enter the penthouse when Roy met us, I smiled at him. He nodded to me sparingly and directed his eyes to Edmund."Sir, your friends are here. I sent them straight to the library as you ordered.""Alright, I'll be next."I wanted to ask why not just in the living room but Roy had already left and Edmund had already guided me to our room."I'll just talk to them first," he said.I escorted him out of the room.My cell phone in my clutch bag rang."Yeah?" I greeted Nina.A few moments after the commotion on the other line, Nina’s face appeared on the screen, still w

"Get it right there," I complained after looking for a few minutes but I couldn't see him because he was still sitting looking while I was kneeling on the sofa.I bit my lip when I caught a glimpse of the two protagonists both naked. The sounds from there kept echoing in my brain.I made the search even faster."Found it!"Finally."Ah... No, Lily that's..."I snorted."Stand up, you're fooling me, it's stuck in your thigh!""Shit let go of-""It's small!"I panicked even more when he stood up, I almost fell on the sofa, luckily, I managed to put one foot on the carpet."Hey where are you going?"As if no one heard, he walked straight out carrying the bowl of fries that he hadn't let go of before."What's the problem?"Hmm! Whatever.I was about to continue watching because it was comfortable without Edmund but I glanced at a sofa and saw the remote control.Ah so what did I touch earlier?I shrugged and hung out in the entertainment room until lunch.Edmund and I barely said a word w

I bit my lip. Despite the tension, I couldn't help but smile even more because Aunt Kara laughed awkwardly."Ah, is that so? Congratulations then, dearest niece.""Cousin!" Karina went straight to me.Ever since I'm really not close to relatives on any side of the family. Moreover, she grew up in Carolina, not in Seattle. If Karina and I meet, we can't talk because everyone is focused on Mocha."Hi! I'm sorry I didn't attend your engagement with Blake, I'm in Macau because you know it's vacation- Mom, what's wrong?"She artfully removed Auntie's hand that was on her arm.I chuckled. I feel better now."It's fine Karina, we called the engagement off," I also addressed Uncle Milo. "Good evening, Uncle.""Lily, good evening."He shook hands with me and Edmund while the mother and daughter continued to whisper.Auntie Kara excused them. Uncle and Karina did nothing but drag him.Edmund and I looked at each other and grinned at each other. He was still resting until we got to our designate
