Chapter 65 Felix POV Waking up this morning and getting ready for work, I stop on my way out of my room and stare at the picture of me and Alicia hanging on the wall. It was the last pictures we took together the last time we traveled to Miami for holiday before our supposed wedding, which never took place. Although it has been so many years already, I still feel so fucked up and haunted by my past. Taking a deep breath, I finally pull the door open and step out of the room, heading to the parking lot where my car is parked neatly, and just when I'm about to hop inside the car, my phone starts ringing with a strange number displayed on the screen. I slide the answer button, and the voice that comes from the other end makes me freeze on the spot. It's the voice that I would never forget even a hundred years to this day, it's Lilian's voice. "Lilian?" I call, even though I'm already sure of who the caller is, and I heard her scoff. "Turns out that the criminal is sti
Chapter 66 Felix POV I check my wristwatch for the sixth time and sigh briefly. It has been over thirty minutes since I came to the office, and Alicia is yet to be here. She was always the first to come to the office, and this is getting me so worried about her. As much as I want to call her and ask how she's doing, I quickly decide against it. I have already promised that I was not going to disturb her again. I don't want to do anything that'll make her angry. Taking a deep breath, I stare at the screen of the desktop while having my hand on the mouse. I have so much work to do, but I can't even bring myself to do anything. How can I do it, when I'm not even sure about how she's doing now? Another ten minutes passed before the door finally opens, and she walks inside, making that usual straight face. "Good morning, ma'am," I quickly stand up and greet her, but she only hums and continues to walk into her office, not even sparing me a glance. It hurts to think
Chapter 67 Ren POV Been inside the room the whole day, avoiding Alicia. She came to call me down for breakfast before she left for work, but I was just so ashamed of myself. I didn't know how to face her, I didn't know how to look into her eyes and smile at her, knowing the horrible things I've done behind her. My phone suddenly rings, and I roll my eyes upon seeing the caller. It's Clem. What the hell does he want from me after everything he did? I ignore the call, and barely two minutes after the call ended, my phone starts ringing again, and I sigh. I know I can't ignore his call forever. "What the hell do you want from me, Clem?" I snap angrily at him as soon as I answer the call. "Just stop letting your emotions take advantage of you, Ren. I think you should think about this while you still have a chance to," He snaps at me from the other end, and I scoff unbelievably. To think that this bastard doesn't feel remorseful about his action is just driving me so nu
Chapter 68Felix POVI watch as he walks out of the hospital with his hands tucked inside his pockets. Why the hell did he acted that way? Is everything alright? Although he doesn’t look like everything was right with him, but I cant still help asking myself. For someone who was so scared of me being around his woman, he must really be in love with her, but the attitude he just gave is not pleasing, and I cant help questioning his love for her at this point.Taking a deep breath, I stride over to the ward, and just when I’m about to push the door open, I stop and my heart sink into stomach when I hear Lillian’s voice, followed by her footsteps.“What the hell did you do to her, you bastard!” she snaps at me as she walks over to me, and turning to face her, a hot slap lands on my cheek.“This is for breaking my friends heart, this is for showing up, thinking you can leave and come back into her life anytime you want it, and this is for messing with her,” she snaps at me as she sends mu
Chapter 69 Alicia POV My head bangs as I force my eyes open, welcomed by the blurry ceiling. My vision finally becomes clear after a few minutes, and I realize that I'm in a hospital bed. How did I end up here? I remember leaving home this morning, not in very good condition, and I was a bit down when I got to the office. Who knows, maybe I passed out. I groan tiredly as I force myself to sit up on the bed, releasing a deep sigh. Shouldn't I at least see Ren by my side? Why's he not here? I ask myself and sigh for the second time. I hate the fact that Ren now avoids me. I don't know what I can do to make him love me again, but I will try to win his heart back. I have no idea how I fell so deeply in love with him, this was meant to be fake from the onset, but I guess this is our fate. Taking a deep breath, I place my hand on my stomach which is still very flat. I'm just two months pregnant, so it's still not obvious yet. "How are you doing, little one? Mommy is havi
Chapter 70 Ren POV Driving down the road a few minutes later, the sound of my ringing phone pulls my attention, and I pull over at the side of the road when I see that Felix is the one calling. It's not that I want to talk to that bastard, but I have to because of Alicia. I need her to tell me how she's going. "Hello..." "You should go see Alicia at the hospital. She's dying to see you," He cuts me off as soon as I answer the call, and I bite my bottom lip as I throw my head back on the headrest. "I don't know why you're avoiding her, but she's sick now, and needs you now of all time. You should be by her side," He further says before the call finally ends, and I sigh deeply as I throw my phone on the passenger seat. I know what I'm doing is wrong, especially now that she thinks I'm doing this because of what happened. I just wish she understands what I'm going through here, I just wish she knows that I'm doing this for her own good, and that of our unborn chil
Chapter 71 Alicia POV "You really need to sack that bastard, Alicia. His presence makes me sick. I hate him so much," Lilian groans angrily as she drives me back to the office, and I run my fingers through my hair frustratingly. She has been saying this nonstop for the past ten minutes, and I kept telling her that she should let it go. "I told you to let this go already, Lilly. Can you, please? I'm finding it difficult to think here," I whine at her, and she rolls her eyes at me. "Don't tell me you are still in love with her. Are you kidding me? What the hell has she done to you, Alicia?" She scoffs, and I finally glare hard at her. "I told you that I don't love her anymore, shy don't you just leave me the hell alone, you annoying brat?" I roll my eyes at her, turning my gaze to outside the window afterward. I can't help being happy as silence assumes the atmosphere, because I've had enough of her craziness already. 'Will you believe me even if I explain to
Chapter 72Felix POVI look around the big compound one more time before I proceed toward the entrance door. After disturbing and threatening me for so long, I have finally decided to come see him and set things straight with him, because I don’t want to take this shit anymore.Stepping into the villa, I proceed to the rooftop where he asked me to meet him. I wonder why he chose the place to meet with me, but I don’t give a damn about whatever reason he has, anyway.Arriving at the rooftop minutes later, I stop on my track and stare at him, my blood boiling in pure rage, and I feel nothing toward him, but hatred, and the urge to stab him multiple times until he breathes his last. But I know I have to be calmed and talk to him about it.“You are here? I’ve been waiting for you,” he finally turns to face me when he notices my presence. He has been leaning over the rail and staring at nothing, while sipping from the glass of wine he’s holding.“What do you want from me, Eric?” I ask him
