Chapter 41 – Awareness
“What? Why this question?” It feels sudden.
“I don’t think it’s relevant.” She continued with a chuckle, which irritated him. Seeing that familiar expression on his face, Mel was assured.
“I’m just curious what interests someone like you.” He replied with indifference, though he’s fuming inside.
“Can’t you tell yet? I’m sure I mentioned most of it in passing.”
“Give me a summary, then.” He demanded, making her snort.
“A very handsome guy.” She began with a tease.
It’s his turn to roll his eyes at her. He gave her a look that says “go on”.
“One who’s not after my money.” She began counting them on her fingers.
“One who would treat me well. Not a creep. Not forceful.” Her expression turned dark, recalling the unpleasant experiences she recently had. He did, too.

A few days passed and for some reason, Mel was feeling a certain discomfort. She’s not sure what it was. She was lazing in her room, when she decided to check her old email. It’s been months since she last opened it. She created a new one for work purposes, looking a bit more professional. She also abandoned her old phone number and has been using another. Anyway, there’s still social media where she remains in contact with her former classmates. She rarely checks in with their group chats and groups, though. Her username was also cringe-inducing. She never disclosed it to her co-workers. She hasn’t figured out yet how to change it to her name.The usual newsletters appeared on her screen. Huh, she used to subscribe to a lot of those. Even her primary tab is filled with them. She browsed without much thought until something caught her eye. An email marked as important. The sender’s name was familiar but she couldn’t exactly recall who it wa
The Billionaire's Annoying Ward Chapter 43 – Contemplation
“I’ll be away on a business trip. If you still don’t feel well, you should go to a hospital.”Mel simply grunted at his reminder. It’s good that he won’t be home for a few days. She could probably think of something by then. He left early and she also got up from bed. She stared at her haggard reflection for half an hour before taking a shower. She feels lazier than ever. She doesn’t feel like going to work but she wants to get out of this house. She left mid-morning in her own car.Ugh. Why is it that upon learning she’s pregnant she seemed to link her actions to it? Craving food she hasn’t tasted for a while is normal for her, so she hadn’t had a clue this way. As for being tired, wasn’t that because of work and Klyde’s demands? She groaned as she walked inside a restaurant. This one is high-end. It’s been a while since she came to one. They’ve opened just a few minutes ago. She decid
The Billionaire's Annoying Ward Chapter 44 – Admission
She can make the business plan at home. Maybe go out once in a while to find a good place for it. Oh, right. She’s looking forward to choosing furniture and decorations as well. She pursed her lips. She can focus on fine-tuning the details for the café, right?They were interrupted when Cedrik arrived and Lily helped him with the purchases.“Damn. I had him buy some beer and champagne. Can you drink champagne?” She hollered from the kitchen.Mel grimaced. Not too long ago, she drank quite a lot. “I’d rather not. Is there anything to make lemonade?”“Oh, yes. He bought lemons. He likes placing them in his water. I’ll make you a lemonade.”“Thank you.” She relaxed on the couch while her friend and boyfriend became busy in the kitchen. She heard Lily telling him a few things about her situation. The man didn’t have anything to say and merely nodded in understanding.
The Billionaire's Annoying Ward Chapter 45 – Negotiation
“Marry me.”In the morning, after they had breakfast, she followed him to his study. This is what he said after they faced each other on the couch.Last night, she didn’t expect that she would sleep straight through. Maybe because she’s no longer worried about how he’ll react…Right now, what they needed to do is come to an agreement how to handle this matter. She gaped at him upon hearing his words.“Uh, how is that a solution? That’s not necessary, is it?” She’s firm on this. They don’t need to get married.Klyde frowned at her. Well, he can’t say he didn’t expect her to oppose. This is within his predictions.He deeply stared at her before responding, “It’s not exactly what I want but if Pops hears about this, he would surely demand it’s done.”There. That’s the safest way to convince her. Last night, he debated with himself
The Billionaire's Annoying Ward Chapter 46 – Marriage
“Of course not.” She admitted but it still didn’t sit right with her. So, she must choose? Who would do the sacrifice? Her or the child? Kind of a no-brainer, but she was truly laying it out in her head. It’s true that the child is unplanned and unwanted, though…She’s beginning to realize the differences in his and her beliefs. Who knew he would be more dedicated than her? Well, there’s his grandpa to think about. Which leads to another concern…“Say, if I marry you and give birth to this child… would your grandpa give me the two billion he mentioned before?”His lip twitched at seeing her sheepish look. He knew she’s half-joking, half-serious. Well, he’ll ask his pops. But he’s not telling her his reply. In a way, he also thinks the old man should. He was the one who promised it.He simply shrugged. She was silent for quite a long time. What else is there to discuss?
The Billionaire's Annoying Ward Chapter 47 – Irritation
He brought her to his room and satisfied her desires. The company could wait. Mel clung to him as he made love to her. Whenever he noticed her discomfort, he would turn gentle. There it was again, the feeling of drowning.She decidedly fell asleep afterwards and he had no choice but to leave. There are a few issues that urgently needs his attention. He covered her with a blanket and made sure to leave instructions for the maids to watch her carefully.He also couldn’t wait for her to make an appointment with a doctor, so he instructed his assistant to do it. He pursed his lips. He doesn’t know much about pregnant women and children. He might as well ask questions from the expert. He asked the appointment to be for an hour or so. He needs a lecture.Mel slept until mid-afternoon, when she could no longer deny her hunger. A maid quickly set the table for a meal. She contemplated on his question about work.Does she still want to? Or should she j
The Billionaire's Annoying Ward Chapter 48 – Reception
Once they have ascertained that she’d been pregnant for eight weeks, they also decided to do an ultrasound. It’s still early to know the gender, but Klyde wanted to hear heartbeats. Her lips twitched at how assertive he was in making requests. He didn’t even ask her if she wants to. Fine, whatever.She did notice his enthusiasm. Under the surface, that is. His smile was enough to let her know it. He rarely smiles and those are small smiles. This time, he’s smiling wide. For a moment, she was mesmerized by how good he looks.She would admit that he’s really handling the situation better than she does. Instead of expressing anger and disappointment, he was actually accepting of the situation they were thrust in. Good, then.On their way home, Klyde did see that she’s not as grumpy. This is what she’s like during mid-day, huh? Her expression is almost neutral. She squints from time to time, but that was it.“Wh
The Billionaire's Annoying Ward Chapter 49 – Grandchild
The old man looked confused for a moment before he finally understood and was stunned.“You two got married?”“Yes.” Klyde replied with a nod.“Why do I not know about this? Why didn’t you invite me?” His tone showed his displeasure.Mel bit her lip upon hearing that.“We wanted a simple wedding. We’re afraid you would insist on a grand wedding, so we only invited you at this time. We got married this morning.”Enrico looked down and eyed their joined hands. They’re both wearing rings.“This morning?” He wanted to confirm.“Yes. Welcome to the reception. We only have a handful of guests.” He gestured towards the others and the old man took a good look at them this time. Some of them would look their way from time to time. Lily, especially, since she knows what’s going on.“You got married this morning?”&ldq
