I held her hand and looked into her eyes. “To take you back home. You can't be out here on your own,” I said.But she shook her head. “No, Bella. I can't come back. It is just so hard for me,” she explained, her voice trembling.“You can't leave when you are pregnant,“ I said. I didn't know why she was so stupid. “Abby, I did this same thing when I was pregnant. It is not easy at all,” I explained.“But you still survived, right?“ She asked, tears falling from her eyes. “Bella, I don't want to go back. Please, just leave. Tell them you didn't see me.“I sighed. “Is it because of Trisha? Chris isn't her child's dad. You don't have to worry about that anymore,” I said at last.I had thought that it would be a good idea if she heard that directly from Chris. However, I had to do anything to make her stay.She froze in place and stopped struggling. “What?“ she asked.“Abby!“Chris ran towards us and pulled her into his arms. “Where the hell did you think you were going?“ He asked.I sighe
…Things started feeling strange when the guards bowed at us when we got into the company and called me madam.I was so shocked that I almost chocked on my saliva. However, when I asked Xin about it, he only shrugged his shoulders. “That's going to be true, anyway,” he said.Birdie was the second person we met. “Good morning, madam,” he said. And that was when I realized that things were simple.“What the hell happened? Why are you calling me that?“ I asked.Birdie stole a look at Xin. He seemed confused a little. And I finally understood what was going on.I looked at Xin with a pout. “You asked them to call me that, right?“ I asked. How could he have done such a thing?Xin remained so calm as he looked at me. “I don't find anything wrong with that. They call me boss every day, yet I have never complained,” he said.“That's different,” I argued. “I still had so many enemies around. I don't want them to get everything wrong.“Xin shrugged, and I couldn't help but feel angry. Wasn't he
…“You don't have to worry, honey. I will make sure that fool believes that the child is his. So what if he didn't lose his memories?“ Trisha said, her hands wrapped around a man.The man chuckled loudly. “You are really something else, Trisha. But all we care about now is money. You have to do something about it. Once we find enough money, we can raise the child ourselves.“Trisha nodded in understanding. “Here's the plan. I want to push him to marry me in the next month. A while later, I will ask for a divorce. Half of everything he has will be ours,” she said, a look of greed on her face.“Brilliant!“ The man nodded his head. “I knew you were of value that night when I laid my eyes on you.“Just at the same time, the door was pushed open, and Mr. Blake walked in. Behind him were about ten men, well built.Trisha sprang to her feet, trembling. She forced a smile and looked at Mr. Blake. “Uncle, I didn't know that you were here,” she said.Mr. Blake remained calm as he stared back at
…Abby sat beside Chris at the dining table. It was the first time she was dining with the family. She felt a little nervous.She tried turning them down at first when she was invited over. However, Mrs. Blake had personally gone to pick her up. She didn't have a choice.Chris smiled and picked up a piece of meat for her. He was all smiles from the moment he got her back.However, Mr. Blake served her more vegetables. “Vegetables are healthy. You have to make sure that my grandchild is healthy,” he said.Mrs. Blake could not help laughing. “Some meat doesn't do any harm,” she said, turning to look at Abby. “Don't mind him. He was also always so obsessed when I was pregnant with Chris.“Abby smiled back. She was happy that the family of three had fully accepted her as one of their own. She didn't have to worry about giving birth alone or raising her child by herself.However, they had just begun eating when someone walked straight to the dining room. All the chattering died down.“Wow!
Trisha tensed up immediately. “You! You called the police?“ She asked. She feared that what she had done could have been exposed.She had come to Blake's house, thinking that she would be able to manipulate them into hiding her. She didn't expect that she would find Abby there, or worse, that she would be carrying Chris's child.Mr. Blake looked at Chris and Abby, and they both shook their heads. They hadn't called the police.The door was pushed open, and a number of police officers rushed in, armed. One of them pointed at Trisha, who was still sitting on the floor. “Arrest her,” he said.Two men rushed forward to handcuff her. All the Blakes and Abby looked on in confusion. “What happened?“ Mr. Blake asked.“Trisha, you are here under arrest for the suspected murder of John Mayor. You have the right to remain silent, or whatever you say could be used against you in a court of law,” the leader said.The others were shocked. “She killed?“ Mrs. Blake asked in fear. “No wonder she ran o
Xin immediately stopped the car at the side of the road and turned to look at Little Lion. “Were you listening?“ He asked, his voice filled with fear.Little Lion looked at him with teary eyes. “No one said I couldn't listen,” he said, a pout on his lips.Xin sighed and held his hand. He wiped away his tears and looked into his eyes. “Little Lion, I love your mommy so much. I am not going to let anything happen to her,” he said.Little Lion blinked his eyes. “Does that mean that you are going to do as great grandpa says?“ He asked.The old man had said that Xin had to do everything he asked him to do if he did not want anything to happen to his mommy.Xin quickly shook his head. “I mean that I am never going to harm her. I will keep mommy and you safe, okay?“ He said.He was feeling helpless in front of his son. He should have been more careful to make sure that he didn't hear so many things.Little Lion pursed his lips. “Daddy?“ He called. And Xin turned to look at him in shock.“Did
Little Lion paused and looked at himself. “Big Yan, do you like my dressing today?“ He asked with a smile.I couldn't help but smile back. “You look gorgeous. He sure has a taste,” I said, winking at Xin.Little Lion was dressed in a similar tuxedo, making him appear like a younger CEO.“My taste is always great,” Xin said with a smile. “Try that, and let's see what you think.“It was then that my attention went back to the dress I was holding. I looked at it again before looking at Xin. “What is the meaning of this?“ I asked, a little tense.Little Lion looked at Xin. “You haven't told her yet, right?“ He asked.And I felt more confused. “Can any of you tell me where we are going wearing these?“ I asked again.Xin put his hand in his pocket and took a step towards me. “Bella, what comes to your mind when you see such a dress?“ He asked.I pursed my lips and looked away from him. Of course, there was only one possibility. “Um, I…”“Isabel Yan, will you marry me?“ Xin asked with raised
…At around six o'clock in the morning, Xin's phone rang. He looked at the girl sleeping peacefully in his arms and smiled.He slowly pulled away, covered her, and walked to his study room.“Speak,” he said.“Boss, we found out where the woman is. She has been in the city all along,” Red Eye reported from the other end.Xin sighed and walked around the room. “Find out what she does and who she interacts with,” he said coldly before hanging up.…Old Xin had just woken up when a man rushed in. “Boss, we found out where they were yesterday,” the man said.Old Xin sipped his tea quietly for a while before looking up. “Where?“The man trembled a little. “Um, they went to the Hill Vue hotel. They were there almost the whole night,” he explained.Old Xin raised his brows. “Just staying? Did something happen?“ He asked, his voice turning a little cold.And the man bowed his head. “Boss, they got married. They were there for a wedding ceremony that had only two guests,” he said.Old Xin froze
