I was in a state of panic when he leaned more to kiss me. At first it was shallow, just meant to tease me but after some time he became aggressive.I groaned when he stopped and moved slightly away from me.I shot him a surprised look but he just grinned."Take a bath," the brute said simply.I raised my eyebrows but immediately followed his wishes. I will never give up.I slowly stood up so the wine in my long hair immediately flowed through my body.From my peripheral vision I saw him gulping.Do you want it? I will give you a good show.I turned to him and pretended not to notice his sticky gaze on my body."Just stay here, watch me." I ordered.I secretly smirked even more and he stared at me specifically at my chest.I stood up straight and left the bathtub completely. I instructed him to drain it. I don't even know if he heard because he was just stunned by me.Next I grabbed the shower because I might get bitten by ants. I didn't bother to close the shower curtain.Shower gel i
They are right, time flies so fast when you're happy. I almost didn't realize it for a week because of Edmund various tricks.Even he's busy working, he can still make time for me. He still comes home every afternoon so we can have lunch together and in the evening we go out.Yesterday, we watched an orchestra. He got us a VVIP ticket. We had a chance to join their victory party but I was too tired and sleepy, add that he has work the next day."Good evening ma'am," Roy greeted with a smile.He was wearing a uniform and standing straight by the stairs. Unlike before, he is more casual now. Not too intimidating and formal.However the man beside him is the exact opposite. He has a darker aura despite the smirk plastered on his face.I gave them a slight smile before heading to where my husband was standing.He stared at me and never once took his eyes off me. He was staring at me as if wandering into the depths of my soul."Shall we?" Edmund asked in a hoarse tone.I nodded and accep
Life is such a mess, and shit things happen almost every time.We are sleeping in the same room but I felt like there's a wall between us. We are often together but he seems far away. Or maybe, it was just me. Because no matter how hard I tried. I can't act nor think the same.I distanced myself from him and I don't know if he was numb or just kept quiet because he didn't complain about anything. Or maybe it's more favorable to him that while the six months are not over, I'm getting ready to move away.I wonder if he even noticed that.I ruffled my hair and almost jumped out of bed.I put on slippers and slowly left the room.When I glanced at the clock I realized it was almost midnight. Edmund said goodbye that he will be home late today so I planned to go to bed early.Right. Planned. It didn't work either.The light dimmed as I went down the stairs. The cold air from the AC is giving me chills that's why I adjusted the silk robe that was on top of my nighties."But son, you have to
We both fell into deep silence and that's when I realized how dangerous it is for me to look into his chocolate brown eyes. I felt like drowning just looking into it. I looked away and took a bite. "Since the nine months is almost over, I want us to settle things," I said in a plain voice after a long stretch of silence. "I still have a month..." he whispered. I sighed inwardly and tried my best not to speak in a shaky voice. "I want to settle the payment like what is written on the agreement. Also, that's what we're talking about, right? Once you get the company, we're done." "Is that all?" I almost scoff bitterly because the last time I checked, he is the one caught cheating. I faked a cough, pretending to remain formal. "This is business right?" I stood up. "I'll leave this house immediately after the ninth month, as promised." I left him sitting there for a long time. We had a silent dinner and as usual, I woke up the next day alone in the big bed. I just ate and told R
I'm almost convinced that Edmund is really concerned based on his actions since Roy caught up with me. But because I know the truth, I find it so hard to trust both of his words and actions. Every time he's asking me if I'm okay a big part of me wants to say I'm not because he's seeing my sister but of course I have to remind myself that I should stay where I belong. That line is beyond my capacity and I should never cross that. I rolled back from the bed again when I felt sleepy. This morning after Edmund left I vomited again in the bathroom but nothing came out but bitter saliva. I shrugged it off because I might have been sick to my stomach because I hadn't had breakfast yet. Now that I have eaten, I feel nothing but nausea. Around noon I was restless. I called Edmund's office but no one answered but the female receptionist. Besides Gregor, it was also Edmund's office assistant who took the call. She told me that Edmund went out earlier than expected for a lunch meeting but whe
The reason was a combination of nervousness and panic, so I couldn't move immediately because the bubbles exploded on the floor. I couldn't even check if I had a wound because I was so scared. I couldn't move immediately, especially when my emotions rose so I couldn't stop sobbing. However the unkind woman just ordered her people to help me get up. He didn't even bother to check if I was okay while the bodyguards he ordered were restless to check if I had any injuries or something. I saw a small cut of glass in my palm because I propped it on the floor to stand. I think I sat through some boogie too and I don't know... "Don't act like that, stand up or you might report that I'm oppressing you," said the lady in a humorless tone. I tried to find concern and sympathy for him but I couldn't find anything. She sat tall like a queen and then looked at me from head to toe. "I can't believe my so choose a bitch like you," she said and turned to the staff. "Leave us alone. This is a sens
Even if I wanted to ask the housekeeper for help, I couldn't because I was afraid she would feel sorry for me. Maybe my parents will scold her, especially Dad. She's too old for that. I was out of breath when a strong wind blew while I was walking. The temperature is gradually decreasing every minute, that's why I hurried to walk even though I didn't know where to go. It was cold around and since I was only wearing a bodycon dress in the middle of the night I couldn't do anything but hug myself. Some people looked at me, I don't know if they're amazed or what while I'm almost freezing. Maybe there is an inn or a hotel nearby, I might just spend the night there because I don't have much money, I don't know if I can stay two nights so tomorrow I might plan what to do. My feet took me to a church. It was only a few kilometers away from our house and I finally felt comfortable while entering there. It's not big but the place is quiet. On the side there were two nuns kneeling so I did
"The baby is fine and safe, Sister. We were on our way home yesterday after we finished serving. Marky, even though he was afraid of blood, came earlier," said Lester, one of the sacristan who brought me to the hospital. Marky laughed and shook his head. Compared to Lester, it is more quiet and shy. "Of course I'm confused," said Marky and adjusted his round eyeglasses. He continued to look like a holy seminarian as Lester teased. He was wearing a white polo shirt and black pants. It was in good order and there was no mess. "Thank you for the help, I don't know how to pay you all. Thank you..." I said flashing a slight smile. Somehow I regained my strength to eat solid food earlier. I can go out this afternoon, just settle the bill. I still have money and Sister Inca and Sister Badeth downstairs are taking care of something so I don't have to pay anything, it's a public hospital. "That's fine, sister. The important thing is that you and your baby are safe," Artem said. This and
