Jonathan's days were so boring. Home was a place he always wanted to return to whenever he left, but that was no longer the case now that Amelie wasn't there.
He lazily opened the door to the house, and his laziness only increased when Theresia walked in with a joyful smile plastered on her wrinkled face. It was certain that the woman had a plan behind her hospitality tonight."My son, are you home yet? Eat up; tonight's special dinner is waiting for you."Jonathan walked resignedly in the direction where Theresia pulled his hand.The man frowned as he found his mother's best friend at the dinner table, along with her husband and a girl he didn't recognize at all.The girl kept smiling at Jonathan. Making Jonathan feel uncomfortable and occasionally returning her smile with a faint smile.What was Theresia's plan this time?"Meet Jonathan; this is Elena. The girl I'm going to match you with." Theresia said it plainly.Jonathan reflexively spit out the drink that had just entered his mouth into Theresia's face in shock."Jonathan," Theresia screeched, trying to hold back her anger.If they weren't currently dining with guests, Theresia would have gotten angry and cursed at Jonathan. But she chose not to, in order to maintain her good name.Katie and Irene, who were serving Theresia's guests, couldn't help but laugh at what had just happened.Edmund simply did not respond. If required to open his voice, he would have given the decision to Jonathan. Theresia did not even tell him that his wife invited her best friend to dinner at her house. Including the matchmaking Theresia did for their son. "Finish your meal; take Elena for a walk in the garden." Theresia's plea was made to sound as sweet as possible......Jonathan didn't say much while he and Elena were in the garden together. The man chose to let the silence take over rather than talk to the foreign girl he was going to be matched with."What do you do every day?" asked Elena to break the silence. "Like most people." "Oh." Elena smiled bitterly at the cold reply from the man next to her. 'Handsome, but why is this guy so annoying?' Elena cursed to herself. "Have you ever dated before?" "Yes. I have a girlfriend right now." Jonathan answered briefly again without turning to her. Elena's beautiful face did not attract Jonathan at all. The girl was very upset. The beautiful dress she wore, the makeup, and the jewelry to support her appearance did not make him turn to her at all.The man's gaze wandered up to the star-studded sky.'Amelie? What are you doing now? Your departure tormented me a lot, Amelie. See now? I'm sitting with the strange girl Theresia wants to set me up with. I don't want that, Amelie! Please come back. I'll go wherever you want.' Jonathan moaned silently. Jonathan let Elena dialog with herself for too long. Cunning thoughts began to play in his head. The girl's lips smiled as an idea popped into her head. 'Watch out, Jonathan! I'll make you crazy and beg for my love!' Elena cursed at herself."Sorry, Jonathan, it's getting late. I think my parents and I will be going home soon." said she was hoping that Jonathan would keep her from leaving. "Go home." The girl stared disappointedly at Jonathan's answer, which was far from her expectations. "And please, don't expect anything from this arranged marriage. My mother wanted to set me up with you. But I don't want this arranged marriage at all. Amelie will never be replaced." Jonathan said as he waved goodbye.At that moment, Elena found out that Jonathan's girlfriend was named Amelie. Elena's desire to find out about the girl emerged. Jonathan hoped that tonight's encounter with Elena would be the first and last.Elena turned around and walked away from Jonathan with an overwhelming feeling of resentment.***It was a sunny afternoon. Blue colors adorned the sky in the number-one largest city in New Zealand. In a red Ferarri luxury sedan that cut across the highway, a woman sat in the back seat. She looked very fashionable in a black dress and a maroon leather handbag. Expensive watches also supported her flashy appearance. "We're heading to Le French Eatery." Theresia said to her personal driver, who looked at his mistress from the center rearview mirror and nodded his head afterwards. The woman wrote a short message that read, "I'm on my way to Le French Eatery. Please wait a moment."Theresia again occupied her hands with the mirror and lipstick. She smeared the deep red lipstick on her heart-shaped lips, which successfully added to her elegant look. Smiling enthusiastically, Elena waved as soon as she saw the female entity she had been waiting for since 15 minutes ago. Theresia, who noticed the waving, smiled and quickened her footsteps towards the table where the girl was. "Have
"Oh, my granddaughter! You look even more beautiful now that you have grown up." Marie said, upon seeing the girl entity standing on the doorway with two large bags carried in both hands.Marie's wrinkled hands immediately embraced Amelie's body and rested her head on the shoulders. She inhaled a soothing scent of rose on the girl's body. Once satisfied, Marie released her embrace on the girl, Marie grabbed one of the big bags Amelie was carrying and walked inside."Come in, I've prepared some food for you."The girl nodded and walked behind the old woman, as she looked around. The house changed significantly from the last time Amelie left the house. The patient was 12 years old then."Thank you, Grandma." Amelie replied that she was seated on a dining room chair."Thank you for what? It's my duty to feed the grandchildren I love so much."The food, including Amelie’s favorite chocolate cookies, was laid out on a square table in front of her. Meanwhile, Amelie continued to wander arou
For the past few days, Amelie has been experiencing morning sickness that is quite disturbing. Not a morsel of food entered the girl's digestive tract, but she regurgitated it. Maybe, for the past few days, she could still endure. But not this time. The nausea that attacked was severe, as if stirring up the contents of her stomach. The dizziness that attacked her head was no less intense. Amelie came out of the bathroom with staggering steps. Her vision was foggy. Marie, who witnessed the incident, immediately ran to her granddaughter and carried her to a chair.Amelie's two slices of toast were left unattended. Now, the old woman no longer spoke at length like before. Marie felt guilty for forcing her granddaughter to eat so much. Meanwhile, Louis continued to walk back and forth while muttering, "Oh, my God, what has happened to my granddaughter?" Not much different from Marie, Louis also experienced the same anxiety after seeing Amelie's condition lately. "Didn't I repeatedly
Amelie's health condition is improving day by day. The medicine prescribed by Gideon has successfully reduced the nausea and vomiting that the girl has been experiencing lately.After finishing her breakfast, Amelie grabbed a small backpack filled with medicine and a bottle of water to accompany her on her journey this morning."Where are you going?" asked Marie with a questioning look as she noticed the small backpack beside her granddaughter, who was now tying her shoelaces.Hearing Marie's question, Amelie looked up and said, "I'm going to look for a job, Grandma.""You said work? Your condition has just stabilized, dear. Can you drop the idea and look for a job another time?" Marie asked, starting the negotiation session.After finishing tying her cats' shoes, the girl stood up and smiled at Marie's thoughtful words to her."Look," Amelie said as she twirled around in front of her grandmother to reassure the old woman that there was nothing to worry about. "I'm much healthier now,
Jonathan didn't expect April 15th to come so soon. April 15th was the date that the Hayes family and Victor's family had agreed on for Jonathan's marriage to Elena. A beautiful girl who could not make him forget the person he loved the most, Amelie Anderson. With a sour look on his face, the 25-year-old man looked at himself in the mirror of his room. He was wearing a black suit that had been specially bought for him on his wedding day. Jonathan wanted to rip off the suit that his mother had given him."Jo, I beg you, don't put on that expression. This is your big day." Theresia pleaded when she saw the expression on Jonathan's face.I don't know how many times Theresia has said the same message. And she was sick of it.Jonathan forced his lips to pull apart, revealing a stiff smile. A dry smile with an expressionless face, like a mannequin in a clothing store. At least, that was how he wanted to silence his mother's mouth so that she would walk away from him.It seemed to work. Ther
Nighttime is the most anticipated time for newlyweds to channel their passion for each other. But what if the partner you're currently sharing a room with isn't the one you love? Will the biological desire still grow in warm feelings and run through both of their bodies? Encouraging them to go several rounds with each other for mutual satisfaction.Jonathan lay down on the bed with a tired sigh. He had yet to take off the shirt he had worn to the wedding earlier in the day. Even to clean himself, he was reluctant.With a pounding chest, Elena walked over to Jonathan, who was lying on the bed."Jo..." she said, sounding spoiled.Jonathan only looked away for a moment before exhaling tiredly. Being beside Elena all day made Jonathan feel very tired. Although standing hand in hand was actually not a hard thing to do.Elena, who was already dressed in a skimpy nightgown, spluttered in annoyance at her husband, who didn't stare wildly at her beautiful body.She slowly lay down next to Jona
Elena stared in annoyance at the man who was still sleeping shirtless next to her. Her wish to have a pleasurable first night was dashed by Jonathan's rough foreplay."Shit!" she swore as she scrambled out of bed. She winced, bearing the sting of a chafed sex organ from last night's struggle.Theresia and Edmund turned their heads as they heard footsteps coming down the stairs. A well-dressed young man smiled at them as he carried his black suit. He walked over and pulled up a chair at the dining table.The man went downstairs alone, raising questions in Theresia's head. Where was her son-in-law? This morning was supposed to be his first breakfast with the new member of his family."Where's Elena?" asked Therseia with a questioning look as her son innocently placed food on his plate."She's still in her room, Mom. She's probably tired at the moment," replied Jonathan as he popped some bread into his mouth.Inwardly, Theresia smiled happily because she thought that Jonathan had really
One month had passed since Amelie first started working at Demiurge. The girl adapted very well and quickly to her new job. Moreover, the workers there welcomed her very well. They even asked her not to hesitate to ask if there was anything she didn't understand in carrying out her work.From a distance of two meters, two women were watching a girl who was writing down an order requested by one of the customers. The pretty face always looks friendly and offers a smile to the visitors."Julie, are you thinking the same thing as me?" asked Anne from behind the counter. Her gaze could not be separated from Amelie's figure."Hm? What do you mean?" asked Julie with a frown on her forehead. The girl had no idea what her friend was thinking."Haah. I feel Amelie's physique changing. Her breasts look full, and her body temperature is warmer than that of a normal, healthy person. Plus, the most striking difference is that Amelie's stomach has gotten bigger. Didn't you notice the change?"Julie
Amelie's heart didn't stop beating when the morning came. She barely even slept last night, images of the thrilling moment running through her head. She was going to be a bride that day."Oh my, Miss, your hands are so cold," said the MUA, who had just shaken Amelie's hand to congratulate her on the upcoming wedding. There was nothing Amélie could do but smile blandly. She was so nervous that she was about to say her vows to Jonathan in front of the audience. "Ah, I'm just nervous." Amelie replied while squeezing the white dress she was wearing. "Hahaha, I know how that feels. I also experienced the same thing with you when the seconds of my wedding began," Linda recalled while putting the makeup equipment that was no longer in use into the makeup bag. "Believe me, it's only at the beginning. Once the vows are done, your heart will feel so relieved. You'll even cry tears of joy afterward." Linda nodded confidently; she too had experienced being in the position of the woman she had
The night was getting late. The night breeze was so cold that the thick blanket covering her body couldn't beat the chill of the night air, waking Irene up to check the heating.Irene's eyes blinked several times when she found the bed next to her empty without Robert, so the brunette woman walked out to find out where her husband was. When the door opened, Irene squinted to find her husband sitting on the steps of the servants' quarters terrace with his face turned up to the sky, leaning against a pillar made of natural stone with a melancholy look.Slowly, the woman walked over."Robert?" she called in a soft tone typical of a woman that instantly made the owner of the name turn his head. "Why are you outside? Is it cold, darling?" Irene touched her husband's shoulder and took a seat next to Robert, enduring the cold night air to keep the man she loved so much company."Irene, why are you awake?" asked Robert in a flat tone, masking the disappointment that was currently enveloping
Jonathan walked back to his room with a smile on his face. It made a few pairs of eyes look at him with a quizzical look, but they soon settled into their usual expressions when they bumped into Jonathan. When he walked into his office, a girl was already sitting there waiting for him. "I see you're happy today, sir," Krista Valerie said, smacking her lips as she watched him walk into the room. "Not just being; I'm very, very happy today." Jonathan sat down in his oversized chair. Not wanting to find out more about her superior's happy feelings, the girl cleared her throat and asked why she had been summoned to come to the room of the man who kept smiling like a mental patient. "Excuse me, sir, what need did you call me here?" Not immediately responding to his secretary's question, the man took a few folders from the pile of documents and handed them to the pretty girl."I will be leaving. During my absence, please take care of this work." With her eyebrows knitted, the girl sl
Amelie felt weak after seeing three pregnancy test kits showing the same result, with two red lines lined up. She didn't know what to do now. Was telling Jonathan about her pregnancy the right choice? She was so worried that the same thing would happen again. Jonathan would tell his family, and Theresia would ask her to abort the innocent fetus that Jonathan had planted in her womb. Instantly, the tears that had been receding fell down her cheeks. She would not be able to repeat the same story, bearing the pregnancy alone and raising the baby alone. Truly, it was a heavy responsibility. Amelie's reverie was interrupted by a knock on the door from outside. She quickly wiped away the tears until there were none left. Although her puffy face could not be hidden at all,. "Amelie, open the door." Marie anxiously knocked on the door and turned the knob repeatedly. Since her return from work, Amelie hasn't come out of her room; even now, the door is locked. Marie was worried that somethi
Amelie blinked as sleepiness still lingered in her eyes. She had to get up to get ready for work and take Axel to school, but her body seemed reluctant to get up, as if it were stuck to the bed she was currently on. She closed her eyes for a moment to remember what she had been feeling lately. Amelie had not been feeling well lately. Headaches often came and went, and her breasts were pain. Her sense of smell had become sensitive. Amelie's eyebrows knitted together, and then she got up from the bed with a little haste and grabbed the cell phone on the nightstand to open the period app and see when her last period was. For some reason, when she was about to open the period app on her phone, her heart suddenly started pounding. It was as if she was already sure that the answer she got was something that would disappoint her and shake her sanity. The woman, who was still wrapped in navy pajamas, then took a deep breath before finally exhaling slowly. "Calm down, Amelie, calm down. Ev
The sun is inching its way to the sunset, leaving an orange color on the horizon. The shop began to be quiet from visitors; one by one, among Demiurge visitors, they began to leave the shop after finishing with the activity of filling the stomach. Amelie wiped the table with a cloth as a closing activity in the tavern in the late afternoon. At the same time, Emery, who had just come out of Benitto's room, approached the woman with a rag, doing the same activity next to the table that Amelie was cleaning. Emery cleared her throat to make Amelie realize her presence. Instantly, the elegant woman turned her head and greeted Emery with a friendly face."Hey," greeted Amelie, who then returned her gaze to the shiny table, where she could see the reflection of her face on the lacquered table. Emery couldn't help but be curious about her best friend's encounter with the man Axel had told her about this afternoon."Sorry, Amelie, I hope you won't be offended if I ask." Emery said, which ma
Amelie's heart skipped a beat as she pulled back the blanket covering her body. Not a single piece of clothing clung to her body. She hurriedly cleaned herself up after her struggle with Jonathan last night.Under the shower that splashed her body with water, Amelie closed her eyes. She recalled the events of last night and cursed herself for easily letting Jonathan enjoy her body. 'Stupid, stupid Amelie, what if he leaves you again after this? Why didn't I ask him to wear protection last night?' Amelie's mind began to worry. Her hands slowly squeezed her wet hair until the pain of the tugging was felt.She shook her head, trying to dismiss all possibilities and prejudices against Jonathan. But the more she tried to dismiss them, the more brutally those prejudices attacked her head. ....................."Amelie, are you up early?" Jonathan blinked his eyes as he found Amelie just coming out of the bathroom with wet hair. The time was 04:35. Why was she taking a shower this early?
It was a very happy day for Axel. He could spend the weekend with his parents in the places he loved, something that had always been a dream of his since he often questioned his father's whereabouts."Dad, do you know? Today I'm so happy to be able to go on an excursion with my parents." Axel muttered on the way home. A moment after that, Axel yawned, and slowly his eyes closed.Jonathan stroked Axel's head as he sat on Amelie's lap, with one hand on the steering wheel. "I'm very happy too, sweetheart. We can have a three-day weekend after such a long day." Amelie smiled. She silently agreed that she felt the same way."He's asleep, Jo," Amelie whispered as she stroked Axel's head. The hair she was holding had grown longer; as Amelie recalled, it was only two months ago that she took Axel to the barbershop.The wheels continued to roll, and as Amelie looked out the window, she realized that it wasn't the way home. She refrained from asking; perhaps Jonathan wanted to buy something b
Amelie woke up and was surprised to find that her body position had changed. Amelie and Jonathan had their arms around each other. She immediately threw off Jonathan's burly arms that were hugging her body. "How can you hug me that easily? You pervert," Amelie grumbled as she walked to the toilet. The sound of the water tap and the cold temperature of the water touching her skin instantly brought her full consciousness back. She stared at her reflection in the mirror. Amelie patted her face and instantly groaned as the pats stung."Aw!" The pain she felt made her realize that the night she had spent with Jonathan was not a dream; it was a reality. Even the slap on her cheek left a red mark. Amelie's eyes were closed, with both hands supporting her body on the edge of the sink. A question that niggled at her heart arose. Was meeting Jonathan again a destiny?Amelie sighed as she walked back to her room. But when she arrived at the door, she heard Jonathan talking to someone on the
