Chapter 41May Walter POV"Wife, I made breakfast. You should come to the dining let's eat together," Miles's voice sounded from outside a few minutes after I stepped out of the bathroom."Alright. I'll be there in a couple of minutes,""I'll be waiting," I heard his receding footsteps afterwards, and I presumed he must've gone back.It's been five days since we did the DNA test thing, and we were supposed to get the result today. For the umpteenth time, I picked up my phone and checked to see if my acclaimed Dad had sent me a text, but he didn't. I was grateful he didn't text me all this while just as I had demanded, but I was nervous since the result will be out today."Don't be nervous, May. You'll get over this," I assured myself and took a deep long breath before I walked out of my room and headed to the dining room to join Miles.My mouth salivated as the aroma of food welcomed me downstairs."You're here... Come have a seat," Miles didn't cease to be the sweet husband that alw
Chapter 42May Walter POV'I'm resigning soon, and I need you to take over my companies as the new CEO' Mr. Williams's words played in my head as I stood at the side of the road, waiting for a cab to take me home. Many questions popped up in my head. Why me? Does he not have other kids? How could he trust me when we just met? Just because I'm his daughter doesn't mean that I'll be good to him, don't you think so?'I will have my driver go drop you off' He had offered earlier, but I declined immediately before I left his house. Maybe I should've agreed to it because it's really difficult to get a cab here since it was close to an estate.My phone beeped, and I hesitantly checked to see that it was a text from him.'Hoping to hear from you soon' I rolled my eyes and kept my phone away after I read through the text.My phone vibrated in my my pocket a few minutes later, and I cursed out silently as I reached for it, thinking it was Mr. Williams calling me yet again, but I quickly swiped
Chapter 43"I know I was too harsh on her, but why would she say that to me?" Miles ran his fingers through his hair frustratingly as he paced restlessly in his room."I mean..." He paused and slumped on his bed, his fingers sinking into his hair."I'm not that bad, am I? Is she just mad at me or am I really not her type?" Thinking about everything she had said to him earlier really hurt no matter how he tried to push it away. "But I already apologized to her that I was sorry for saying those words to her. Why would she be so harsh on me?" He muttered and breathed in and out.'You started it all, Miles. You shouldn't be complaining' His subconscious mind reminded him, and he groaned as he dragged himself up to his feet and dashed out of the room.A few minutes later, Miles was standing in front of the door, contemplating on whether or not to knock on the door. What if she was still mad at him for saying that? What if she really didn't want to see him?'She already paid you back. She
Chapter 44After a long ride, Lilly arrived at the hospital and pulled over at the parking lot."Ugh! Finally! I thought I was never going to get here," She breathed out tiredly as she removed her car keys, tossed it inside her handbag, grabbed the small plastic bag beside her, and stepped out of the car."Hey, Lily. You look good as always," Lily couldn't hide her excitement when he colleague complimented her as soon as she stepped into the hospital."Thank you," She smiled and proceeded to her office."Hey, Lily," One of the male nurses smiled at her as he walked toward her in the opposite direction."Hey, Donald,""Wow! You're looking beautiful as always. Is there any special occasion? You look different," Donald raised his eyebrows after he checked her out. Although she has always been a gorgeous young lady, but she looked really different. Unlike every other days she would go to work with no makeup on, it was different today. Her appearance was evident that she really took her ti
Maybelline Walter POV"Hi, babe. I'm ho...me..." My voice trailed off when I walked inside my room and found two naked people on my bed, having sex and moaning like their lives depended on. I had to go back outside to check to be sure I didn't enter the wrong room, but when I saw that it was my room, I walked back inside.My jaw dropped to the ground and my body trembled as I watched my boyfriend and soon-to-be husband, banging another woman right on our bed, the room I rented with my money."Harder please, Os...car..." The bitch my boyfriend was busy fucking, moaned and cried out as she kept asking for more. They were so engrossed in the damn sex that none of them knew that I was inside the room.My heart wrenched painfully and my lips quivered as I stared wordlessly. I opened my mouth to call his attention, but the only thing I could produce were tears that streamed down my cheeks freely."Oscar!" I finally managed to yell his name, and as expected, he quickly pulled away shamelessl
A few days laterMaybelline Walter POVMy heart hammered against my chest as I stood in front of the company, my fingers tightened firmly around the handle of my handbag. I wasn't sure if I was ready to face my boss after what happened a few days ago, but on second thought, I needed to resume work. This was my only source of income and I couldn't just give it up like that. Not when I have bills to pay.After what happened that night, I lied to Mr. Miles that I was sick and took one week off. "Just pretend nothing happened," Taking a deep breath, I proceeded into the compound and just the sight of my boss's car made my heart skip a beat, but thinking about how he would look at me later made it even worse.I braced myself up and proceeded toward the elevator which took me to the third floor where my office is located. I was relieved when I walked inside my office and didn't find Mr. Miles around, but my happiness was soon cut short the moment the door opened and he walked in.My breath
Maybelline Walter POVTwo week later"Are you going to keep living like this, May? You need to tell Mr. Miles what happened and find a solution to this," Lily suggested when she walked in on me again wallowing in thoughts. My life has been in a state of mess ever since I discovered that I was pregnant. "It's been two weeks already. You can't keep this a secret forever," Again, Lily uttered as she finally sat beside me on the bed and held my hand."I don't want to tell him...""Then what do you plan to do? You can't take care of yourself all alone. He needs to take responsibility for what happened. I mean...""How am I supposed to tell him? That we had a one nightstand at the club and I got pregnant for him? Does that even make any sense to you, Lily?" I cut her off, and she sighed briefly."All I'm saying is that...""I'm off, Lily. We'll talk when I get back," I stood up from the bed and picked up my phone from the center table."Where are you going?" She asked as I advanced toward
Two days laterMaybelline Walter POV"Did I do the right thing?" Again, I asked myself after I stepped out of the car that had just driven into Mr. Miles's mansion. I was finally moving in with him today after I signed the marriage contract yesterday, but I guess even if I wanted to change my mind, it would be too late. I mean, I already signed the contract so there was no going back for me now."This way, Miss," The driver's voice disrupted my thoughts and I turned to find him already carrying my suitcase."Oh, okay," He led the way while I trailed behind him. Again, I took my time to check the beautiful house out and I didn't expect less from him, anyway. It was my second time of being here yet I couldn't still get enough of the place."You are here, ma'am?" Mr. Miles's maid, a young lady in her late thirties walked up to me with a warm smile on her face."I will take it from here," She went to collect my suitcase from the driver, then turned to me and smiled again."Mr. Miles aske
