Lily

Later that evening, Mrs. Donovan called me over, and as she sat me down beside her, I couldn't shake off the growing anxiety creeping up within me. There was an unusual seriousness in her posture that made me wonder what she wanted to talk about. I sat there, fidgeting nervously, trying to prepare myself for whatever was to come.

Suddenly, Mrs. Donovan broke the silence, her voice cutting through the tension in the room.

"Lily," she began, her gaze fixed on me, "I've noticed something, and I wanted to talk to you about it."

My heart skipped a beat, and I braced myself for what she was about to say. "Yes, Mrs. Donovan?" I replied, trying to keep my voice steady despite the nervousness swirling inside me.

"Is there a problem between you and Noah?" She asked, her question catching me completely off guard. I felt myself freeze, my mind racing as I struggled to come up with a response. How did she know? Was it that obvious?

"I… I don't..." I stuttered, unable to find the right words.

    Lily“So, Lily, I would like you to do something for me.” Mrs. Donovan said.She called me into her home office the following day and standing in front of her, I felt nervous because I didn't know why she had called me here this morning when it was only yesterday evening we had talked. I found it odd because this just told me that there was something she wanted to discuss with me, something I didn't know about.“Okay, what is that, ma’am?” I asked.“Please sit down,” she said.Taking a seat opposite her, my nervousness shot up to the roof because whatever it was, it had to be serious and I didn't think I was ready to hear any of that.“I need a favor from you,” she said.“Of course, ma’am, anything at all. I am ready to help you.”She didn’t even need to ask me if there was something I needed to do for her. What she had done for me was far more than anything I could ever do for her and I didn't want her to think that she needed to beg me before I did anything for her. I did what I did

    Noah“Oh, welcome darling. Lily should be down soon.” My mother smiled, kissing both my cheeks.“What? She agreed to do this?” I asked.When I had told my mother about it, I didn't think that Lily would even agree to do something like that, especially with the history between us and imagine my surprise when my mother told me this.“It had to take a lot of persuasion and begging, dear. So, don’t make her feel frightened.”“Lily is frightened by me?” I asked.I felt bad at that moment because that wasn’t what I had intended. Now, I felt terrible to have scared her this way and I knew she wouldn’t even have any trust for me anymore. Who would when most people practically had to walk on eggshells around me?“Who wouldn’t be frightened by you when you practically have a scowl on your face every minute,” Ethan said, walking into the house.“Now… Now boys, I don't want you bickering with each other. Ethan, go find something to do.” My mother laughed.“Mom, but you know it's the truth which m

    LilyAs I stepped out of the car and took in the sight of Noah's house, I couldn't help but be awestruck. It was nothing like what his mother had described as "small." In fact, it was a grand building, towering before me with an air of elegance that took my breath away. Ornamental flowers adorned the perimeter, adding a touch of natural beauty to the already picturesque scene.Beside me, Ethan chuckled softly, as if he could read the disbelief written all over my face. "Don't look so surprised, Lily," he said with a grin. "You're in for a treat. Noah's got more money than you can imagine."I turned to him, feeling a mix of curiosity and admiration but still, I didn't want to be too forward as I remained quiet.Ethan nodded, his grin widening. "Oh yeah. He's got it all – the fancy cars, the luxurious vacations, you name it. And this," he gestured toward the house, "is just the beginning."As we walked toward the front entrance, I couldn't shake off the feeling of being out of place. I

    LilyAs I stepped through the door of the house, after spending the evening at Noah's house, I was immediately greeted by the excited chatter of my fellow staff members who had been eagerly awaiting my return. Their eyes sparkled with curiosity, and mischievous grins played on their lips as they bombarded me with questions."Lily, you're back!" Exclaimed Sarah, practically bouncing with excitement. "We've been dying to hear all about your evening at Noah's. Spill the tea, girl!"I couldn't help but laugh at their eagerness, feeling a mix of amusement and nervousness bubbling inside me. "Oh, you guys are relentless," I chuckled, as they practically dragged me down to sit with them."Come on, spill it!" urged Michael, leaning in eagerly. "Did you two have a romantic dinner? Did he confess his undying love for you?"The others laughed, adding their own teasing remarks. I couldn't blame them for being so curious. Noah was a bit of a mystery to everyone here, and my friendship with him ha

    Lily“Why do you look sad, honey?” Mrs. Donovan asked me one day as I was cleaning the hallways.It has been three days since Chris told me that soon, Noah would be bringing his girlfriend home but he hadn’t arrived yet which just had me wondering if perhaps something had happened but still, I couldn’t take away the sadness that had threatened to consume me whole.As I went about my cleaning duties one day, lost in the rhythm of sweeping and dusting, Mrs. Donovan's voice pulled me out of my thoughts. "Lily, could I speak with you for a moment?" Her tone was gentle as she asked again, but there was an underlying concern that made me uneasy.I turned toward her, trying to mask the turmoil within me with a polite smile. "Of course, Mrs. Donovan. Is something the matter?"She motioned for me to follow her into the living room, where she took a seat on the plush couch. I hesitated for a moment before joining her, my heart pounding with anticipation. Did she somehow sense my inner turmoil?

    LilyAs I lay in bed that night, tossing and turning, Chris's words echoed in my mind like a haunting refrain. His warning about Noah not being who I thought he was lingered, casting a shadow of doubt over everything I thought I knew. The warmth of the covers offered little comfort against the chill creeping into my thoughts."Could I have been fooled by Noah's calm nature?" I whispered to myself, the words barely audible in the silence of my room. The image of Noah, always so composed and collected, flashed before my eyes but now, instead of reassurance, his demeanor seemed suspicious, almost calculated.I couldn't shake the feeling that I had been blind to something lurking beneath the surface. Was Noah truly the person he presented himself to be, or was there a darker truth hidden behind his charming facade? My mind raced with questions, each one leading to more uncertainty than the last.Turning onto my side, I stared into the darkness, searching for answers that eluded me. But th

    LilyAs the evening settled in, I found myself called up to Mrs. Donovan's room. The soft glow of the lambs cast a warm ambiance as I entered, greeted by the inviting scent of her favorite vanilla candles. Mrs. Donovan was seated on her plush armchair, surrounded by swatches of fabric spread out on the coffee table."Lily, dear, thank you for joining me.” She said with a gentle smile, gesturing for me to take a seat opposite her."Of course, Mrs. Donovan. How can I assist you this evening?" I inquired, settling into the chair across from her.She picked up a few samples, each one more exquisite than the last, and began explaining her vision for a new set of curtains for the drawing-room. As she deliberated between the options, she glanced up at me with a twinkle in her eye. "Which one do you think would suit the room best, dear Lily?"I carefully examined the fabrics, considering their textures and colors before pointing to one that I believed would complement the decor perfectly.

    Lily“....So you actually think that Noah is having some problems with his supposed girlfriend which is why they haven’t arrived all these days?” Monica said.I walked in on her and Chris having this conversation and immediately, my mind went to Noah. I wanted to hear more about it and from the look on Chris' face, I had a feeling that something wasn’t quite right.“Oh there she is, good thing you are here,” Monica said.“What’s going on?” I asked, placing the empty plate of fruit Mrs Donovan had just eaten in the sink.“Chris here is of the opinion that there is nothing wrong with Noah and his girlfriend but I am against that because I have a feeling that something is going on and Mrs. Donovan, if you have noticed, isn't happy about it.” “But what exactly could be going wrong?” I asked.I sat there, perched on the edge of my seat, my attention fixed on Chris as he delved into the details of his conversation with Monica. His words floated in the air, each syllable carrying weight, as

    LilyThe moment I walked up to the front door, a strange but exciting feeling bubbled up inside me. It was like my whole body was tingling with anticipation, even though I had no idea why. There was no reason for this giddy feeling, or at least none that I could see but something told me that I was about to walk into the most pleasant surprise of my life. I paused for a second before opening the door, letting the sensation wash over me, wondering what could possibly be waiting on the other side.As I stepped inside, the first thing I noticed was the soft, delicate petals of my favorite flowers—lilies—scattered all over the floor. They formed a beautiful, fragrant path leading further into the house. My heart skipped a beat as I took in the sight, my eyes wide with amazement. This was all too perfect, too magical. I followed the trail, my breath catching in my throat, my mind racing with possibilities.And then, I saw him—Noah, my love, my heart, my everything. He was there, at the end

  • Accidentally Pregnant For My Sister’s Fiancé    It is time.

    NoahI knew it was time. I could feel it in every beat of my heart, in the way my breath caught whenever Lily walked into the room, and in the way her laughter filled the empty spaces in my soul. We'd been through so much together—every trial, every challenge had only strengthened the bond we shared. There was no doubt in my mind that she was the one, my other half, the person I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. I had thought about it for a long time, turning the idea over in my mind, imagining the look in her eyes when I finally asked her that all-important question. But today, as I sat in the quiet of the morning, I knew there was no better time than now."Ethan," I called out, my voice trembling slightly as I walked into his room. He was sitting on the edge of his bed, scrolling through his phone, but he looked up at me immediately, sensing the seriousness in my tone. I hesitated for a moment, trying to find the right words to say. Ethan had always been my rock, my confidan

    NoahI walked into my mother’s house that morning, the scent of freshly brewed coffee lingering in the air as Monica and Charles were engaged in their usual morning routine. Their eyes lit up when they saw me, a subtle reminder of how my presence could break the monotony of their workday.“Good morning, Noah!” Monica greeted me with a bright smile, her enthusiasm evident even before she glanced up from her paperwork.“Morning, Monica. Charles,” I said, acknowledging Charles with a nod. “I’ve got some important news. Lily and our daughter are coming back soon.”The room buzzed with a sudden wave of excitement. Monica’s eyes widened, and she quickly straightened her desk, the anticipation clear on her face.“Really? That’s wonderful news!” she exclaimed.“We’ve missed them so much. It’s been too long.”Charles, who had been quietly organizing files, looked up with a grin that spoke volumes. “It’s about time, Noah. We’ve been eagerly waiting for their return. The house isn’t the same wit

    LilyThe evening sun cast a warm, golden glow across the room as I sat by the window, my hands resting on my swollen belly. The baby kicked softly, a gentle reminder of the life growing inside me, a life that would soon be born into a world of peace and safety—thanks to Noah. I couldn’t help but smile as I thought about how much he had done for us, how he had moved mountains to ensure that I never had to face the nightmares that had once haunted my every waking moment. I knew I was safe, and that knowledge was a comfort I clung to with every fiber of my being.“Noah,” I whispered, my voice barely audible, as if saying his name would summon him. I could almost feel his presence, his unwavering strength, and the way he always seemed to know exactly what I needed, even when I didn’t know it myself. “You’ve given me everything I never knew I needed. How did I get so lucky?”It hadn’t been easy. I knew that. There were days when I could see the exhaustion in his eyes, the weight of the wor

    Noah The moment I stepped into the police station, the air felt thick with tension. The fluorescent lights flickered slightly, casting a cold, sterile glow over the room. My heart pounded in my chest, but I forced myself to remain calm. I knew what I had to do, and I wasn’t about to let my emotions betray me. As I approached the front desk, the officer on duty barely glanced up from his paperwork. "Name?" he asked in a monotone voice, as if he had done this a thousand times before. "Noah," I replied, my voice steady. "I'm here to speak with Detective Carter about Natalie." The officer finally looked up, his eyes narrowing slightly as if he recognized the name. "Wait here," he muttered before picking up the phone and making a quick call. Moments later, a tall man with graying hair and a stern expression emerged from a side door. Detective Carter. He gave me a once-over, his eyes lingering a little too long as if trying to read me before I even opened my mouth. "Noah," he said, his

    Lily As I rocked my baby to sleep, the rhythmic motion of the chair seemed to lull not just the little one but also my restless thoughts. The night was quiet, save for the soft, steady breathing of my child against my chest, but my mind was anything but calm. There was this gnawing feeling at the pit of my stomach, an unease that I couldn't shake off no matter how much I tried to convince myself that everything was fine. I hadn't heard from Noah in hours, which wasn't entirely unusual—he was a busy man, after all. But tonight, the silence felt different, more profound, like an omen hovering over me, warning me that something was off. I looked down at my baby, their innocent faces so peaceful, so unaware of the turmoil swirling inside me. I should be focusing on them, on this perfect moment, but instead, my thoughts kept drifting back to Noah. "He’s fine," I whispered to myself, almost as if saying it out loud would make it true. "He’s always fine." Yet, the words felt hollow, like

    Ethan I was lounging on the couch, trying to unwind after a long day when my phone buzzed in my pocket. The screen lit up with Noah’s name, and a knot tightened in my stomach. We hadn’t spoken in a few days, and I could sense the urgency in his voice the moment I picked up. "Ethan," he said, skipping any formalities. His voice was steady, but I could hear the underlying tension. "Did you do what I asked? Did you hide all the evidence of Natalie’s disappearance?" I took a deep breath, trying to keep my voice calm and reassuring. "Yeah, Noah. I took care of everything. I made sure there’s no trace left behind. No one’s going to find anything." There was a brief silence on the other end, and I could almost picture Noah running a hand through his hair, a habit he had when he was deep in thought or worried. "Good," he finally said, though he didn’t sound entirely convinced. "But we’ve got a problem. The police... they’re snooping around. They’ve been asking questions, poking into pl

    Noah I was sitting in my office, the warm glow of the afternoon sun filtering through the blinds, casting long shadows across the room. The paperwork on my desk seemed never-ending, a constant reminder of the chaos Natalie had unleashed on my life. I had been trying to focus, to push all thoughts of her out of my mind, but the gnawing anxiety was hard to shake. My pen hovered over a document, the ink pooling at the tip as I paused, lost in thought. Just then, the door creaked open, and my secretary, a woman who rarely showed any emotion, stepped in with an unusually tense expression. I looked up, catching the tightness in her jaw, the way she hesitated for a fraction of a second before speaking. "Boss" she began, her voice steady but laced with something I couldn't quite place. "There are some policemen at the reception. They’re asking to see you in connection to the disappearance of... Natalie." The mention of her name sent a cold shiver down my spine, but I forced myself to rema

    Lily It had been a long day, and the quiet of the evening settled around me like a heavy blanket, reminding me of just how much I missed the familiar buzz of the office. With a sigh, I reached for my phone, my fingers instinctively finding Monica’s number. As the line rang, I felt a pang of homesickness wash over me, stronger than I had anticipated. The warmth of her voice when she answered immediately brought a smile to my face. “Lily! It’s so good to hear from you! We’ve all been missing you so much around here,” Monica’s voice was full of genuine enthusiasm, and I could almost picture her bright smile on the other end of the line. “Chris was just saying the other day how quiet the place has been without you.” I couldn’t help but laugh softly, the sound of her voice easing the tightness in my chest. “I miss you guys too, more than I can even say. It’s strange being away for so long. Sometimes I feel like I’m missing out on everything happening back at the office.” “We’re just c
