Jane closed the door as soon as Lance left.Then, she fell on the floor while hugging the paper-bags and the broom within her arms. The tension she experienced was too much. Her knees weakened and wobbled. She stared at the blank space, as if savoring the piece of silence.‘It feels like I just saw the end of the world,’ she said to herself.Did Lance believe her? Did her lame excuses work? Will there be problems in the future just because she lied to her boss?Jane lifelessly shook her head. Words and ideas have seemed to explode inside her head, and left it empty right now.Eugene returned to the living room after taking a pee. When he turned his head to find his mom, he saw her sitting on the ground.“Mom!” he shouted and dashed to her side. “Mom!” He approached his mom with a pale face and observed her.“Are you fine, mom?”Jane turned her head to her son at a slow pace. Looking at him has brought her thoughts and rationality back.‘Eric needs to know what just happened,’ Jane th
Jane’s POV Out of thousands possible reasons why Eric couldn’t come home, I don’t quite understand why a kid like Eugene thinks that his father is having an affair. Eric is engaged to another woman. But that is not an affair! When I asked my son how he came up with this idea, he said he saw it on Television before. That when a man left home and stayed overnight outside, then he is dating someone and that is what everyone calls an ‘affair.’ Oh my gosh. I never thought that my son would be exposed to something as toxic as this. And yet, there’s only one person whom I can blame. That’s me. When I was working so hard with my part time jobs before, I left Eugene to my neighbors. Probably, Eugene watched and heard about this from the adults surrounding him. But there’s no need to worry. Starting from now on, I will watch over him as much as I can. ‘But first, I had to make sure that this won’t reach Eric’s ears.’ “It’s fortunate that Eric wasn’t there when Eugene said that.” “Wh
In the original future, Jane decided to take Eugene back to her mother’s hometown. While they were waiting for the best, a thief suddenly snatched Jane’s bag. “My bag! Hey!” Jane shouted. Jane was carrying a lot that time. She really wanted to chase after the thief but she couldn’t just leave the luggage and her little son alone in the road. “Help! Someone take my bag!” she asked for help. There were a lot of people around who saw the incident. But none of them picked up the courage to help. Jane was so hopeless and devastated at that time. All of the money she saved by working so hard day and night was in that bag. On the verge of tears, a man suddenly appeared in front of her. “Miss,” the man called while catching his breath. “This is your bag, right?” Jane wiped the tears on her eyes and lifted them to the tall man standing before her. He has pale skin, small rigid eyes, pointed nose and pinkish lips. He has a little mole under his left eye and his hair’s color is dark red
Eric promised Jane and Eugene that he will come back home as soon as possible. He couldn’t get back home early. But he kept his promise. 11:55 pm, before the new day started, Eric came back home. Reeking the smell of coffee, Eric stood in front of his house. Being an owner of this house, this is the first time he hesitated to go in or not. He knew that neither Jane nor Eugene was awake. But if there’s a chance that one of them is waiting for him, Eric wonders what expression he should show. Guilt? Sadness? Eric sighed as he unbuttoned three buttons of his collar. ‘What’s there to think about? They both hate me,’ having these thoughts, Eric opened the door. The silence welcomed him as he entered the door. He looked around and when his eyes caught the woman sleeping on the couch, his heart skipped a beat. He expected that he would see no one waiting for him. But deep inside, Eric hoped that Jane would. And it happened. Jane was sleeping on the couch while hugging herself aga
“I am really sorry for coming here without prior notice. You look so busy right now,” Haidee said to Eric. Sitting on the couch across Haidee, Eric answered, “It’s okay. Why did you come here?” “My father heard that the prosecution is investigating the slush fund in Geelq Car. He wanted me to tell you not to worry about this anymore. Today, he went to the Central District Prosecution and settled everything.” The slush fund in Geelq Car is not true. And all night, Eric was looking for a way to clear the accusation so the prosecutions would drop the investigation. But everything was solved with the help of his fiancee’s parents. Eric is thankful to Haidee, but he doesn't feel good receiving help from Haidee’s parents. Either way, he had to send his gratitude. “That would help me a lot. Please send my regards,” Eric said. Haidee smiled at him as she nodded her head. “I will.” She picked up her cup of coffee and took a sip on it. When Haidee kept her eyes on him, Eric noticed that
[“Don’t buy a chamomile tea.”]Eric gave a clear instruction to his secretary that he should not buy chamomile tea. Ever since Byron works under Eric, he discovered the foods and drinks that his boss dislikes. The chamomile tea is at the top list. Years passed by before Byron found out that his boss wasn't actually allergic to it. Eric just hates it for unknown reasons.So when Eric went to the supermarket, he did not put the chamomile tea box inside the cart.However, when Eugene and Byron went back to the supermarket, the boy saw the tea and remembered that his mom loves to drink. So, the kid bought the tea. Byron was rushing out to get out of Eric’s house so he didn’t notice that he placed the tea inside the cabinet.Why did Eric avoid drinking or even just see the innocent tea? It is because whenever he sees it, he remembers his past with his closest friend.Eric looked at the lady who’s preparing his tea. Even if he thinks that Byron deserves some complaints, he wanted to thank h
Jane’s POV Wednesday morning – the third day Eugene and I stay together under the same roof with Eric. While we were having breakfast in the dining room, my son only talked about a certain topic. He kept on talking about his uncle Lance. ‘I am amazed he got the courage to talk about my boss after I found out that he was the reason why Lance came here.’ If I evaluate my son’s intention, I could say that he purposely trying to get on Eric’s nerves. His father hates to hear anything about Lance. My son might have figured that out and so, he brought the toy car given by Lance and even talked about him during our meal. Fortunately, Eric kept his silence while we were eating. With that, our breakfast was peaceful. ‘Maybe?’ I am still not sure if it will stay this way. “Mom, my new car toy is awesome, right?” Eugene asked me while showing his toy. Before answering, I glanced at Eric who hasn’t said anything since the beginning. He bought many toy cars for Eugene as if to win the
Lance went in the wedding boutique for work. But when he came inside, he was surprised to see Eric and Haidee inside the shop. It was as if he was destined to come in that place. Lance walked closer to Eric and Haidee. The shop owner of the wedding boutique wanted to stop Lance from approaching her VVIP customers. But Lance was fast. The owner couldn’t stop the stubborn guy. And so, the owner ran towards the CEO instead and apologized. “S-Sorry to interrupt you, Sir,” the owner said with trembling voice. When she noticed Eric’s sharp eyes, her knees weakened in an instant. ‘Is this my last day as the wedding shop owner?’ she said inwardly her anxious brain. “T-This is Mr. Lance Theodore,” the owner introduced. “He is a business partner of mine. Ahhmmm, there are some customer who wanted to have a bouquet of flower that matches the wedding dress. And so, Mr. Lance and I are...” “I got it,” Eric cut her words. “I know him. So you don’t need to introduce this...” If Eric is allow
Thank you so much for supporting this book! I hope you enjoyed reading from chapter one till the end. I was so excited when I started this book. Time travel was my favorite genre. So, I thought of making a time-travel, with romance, comedy, and slice of life in it. I know that the sm*t parts were so short. (Given that this is rated +18). To be honest, I was skeptical about writing +18 novels. But yeah, I did it. (And I will try again with my new novels hhihi) Once again, thank you for reading this book! You don't need to turn back the time to reread the chapters. However, I pray that you didn't regret reading this and following Jane, Eric, and Eugene's story. I love you, everyone! See you again! (P.S Please do support my other books too^^) (P.S.S If you have any questions regarding the characters in this story, you can put your comments in this section. I will gladly answer anything!)

Haidee found Cyrus at the top of the abandoned building. It was their meeting place when they were dating in secret years ago. Catching her breath, Haidee looked at Cyrus. He was standing near the edge, looking afar. “Cyrus!” Haidee called. Cyrus, who went thin because of depression, looked behind. His eyes widened when he saw Haidee. “What… What are you doing?” Die. Cyrus wanted to die. The truth was too painful for him to bear. He lost his unborn child. He took revenge on Haidee. And then, he turned out to be Valerie and Chase’s son? He was so tired. Cyrus only wanted to end his misery. “Are you… going to leave me?” Haidee asked, crying. When Cyrus saw Haidee crying, his heart ached. “How about your promise? You said you will love me forever.” Cyrus frowned. “You said we will save ourselves.” “…” “If you leave me, what will happen to me?” “…” “What will happen to our baby?!” Cyrus’s eyes widened. He walked forward, toward Haidee and asked, “Our… baby?” “Yes. I a
Jane’s POV It’s been a week and three days since the truth was revealed. Valerie and Chase apologized to Eric and they gave us their consent. [“I hurt you and said bad things to you. I was wrong, Miss Jane. I know it is hard to forgive. But as a parent, if Eric will be happier with you, I am glad to let the two of you together. Please take care of my youngest son.”] Valerie and I fixed our relationship. Eric also forgave his parents and decided to mend their broken past. I asked Eugene to forgive his grandmother, and the boy accepted Valerie again. The media was crazy about this at first. But because there was another celebrity scandal, they forgot about us quickly. So far, it has been peaceful. Eric and I started to date. My son was against it and he kept on guarding me while we were inside Eric’s house. But I knew that deep in Eugene’s heart, he likes her father to me. It was good. But two things need to be settled. First, Cyrus fell into depression. Haidee was the only o
Yesterday, the first thing that Eric did after knowing the future was to contact Secretary Byron.[“Find Nurse Jaymee Hamilton. Bring her to the Desmond Mansion. Tell her that if she tells the truth, we will forgive her.”]And so, when Eric said to his parents that Cyrus is their real son, Secretary Byron brought Nurse Jaymee Hamilton.Jaymee said the same thing that she said to Eric in the future.The fact that Cyrus was stolen by Agatha. And Chase didn’t cheat on Valerie. Jaymee told everything she knew, hoping that it would lessen her sin.“T-Therefore, Mr. Cyrus wasn’t A-Agatha’s son,” Jaymee said. She looked at Cyrus and added, “He is your oldest son, Mr., and Mrs. Desmond.”Haidee covered her mouth in shock.Chase and Valerie held their breath. But for Cyrus, he felt as if the world was swirling around him, playing at his feelings.Who are his parents?Valerie and Chase?The people who ignored him for many years?!Watching the scene unfold, Eric and Jane felt pitiful towards bot
After Jane’s first s*x with Eric, she opened her eyes and saw the empty space beside her.But today, when she opened her eyes, she found Eric’s blue eyes. He stared at her as if he was watching the most beautiful opera play he had ever seen.They were naked, but none of them felt shy.Eric smiled sweetly as tucked her hair behind her ear.“Good morning,” his voice, rasp and rough, echoed in her ears and fluttered her heart.Jane closed her eyes and opened them once again.“What is this?” Jane asked. “The past or the future?”He chuckled huskily, and Adam’s apple moved up and down. He leaned closer to Jane.“It’s the present, my love,” he said as he kissed her forehead.His kisses went down her cheek, on her nose, and settled on her lips.The two of them hugged each other, tasting their tongues for their early breakfast.Jane felt as if she was floating in clouds within the arms of her beloved man, college friend, and Eugene’s father.When they parted, they chuckled sweetly.Eric reach
Jane’s POV “Haa…haa…haa…”I almost forgot everything that happened between me and Eric that passionate night years ago. But now, there’s no need to reminisce about it as I was experiencing it again.Catching my breath, I looked down and watched Eric suck my n*pple.Why did we end up having s*x inside my room?We both learned that the two of us love each other and then we came from the future. Then, suddenly, things went heat.‘Eric said that this is his way to bind me with him for the rest of his life. Perhaps, it will be okay.’Because this time, we will marry each other. We will be happy together.“Ahhhh!” a loud man flowed out of my mouth when Eric gently bit my b*d. “E-Eric!”At my call, the man raised his head slightly. And the corner of his lips rose seductively.‘He is really handsome.’ I stared at his face for a moment even though he was biting, cuddling, and sucking on my n*pples.Eric sucked so well that my back moved on its own.“Ahhh, yeah… more…” the words came out inst
In the future, Cyrus looked for anything that would ruin the Desmond family.Haidee already married Eric. And so, Cyrus was more determined to take his revenge.While looking for Desmond's weakness, Cyrus found a nurse, who was looking over the newborn babies when Valerie gave birth to her oldest son.“Y-Your mother, Agatha, stole Valerie’s child.”Cyrus’s world stopped when he heard the truth.“Agatha’s baby died. She gave me money to exchange Valerie’s baby and her baby. Therefore, Agatha ran away with Valerie’s child, and Valerie thought that her baby was dead. After that, Agatha made a scheme. She made Mr. Chase drink alcohol and pretended that she slept with him. She presented the baby, saying that it was her and Chase’s baby. Thus, after the DNA test, Chase and Valerie believed that Agatha’s baby is an illegitimate child. They didn’t know that the baby was their own child.”Cyrus found out that day that he, the lost baby whom Agatha stole, is Valerie and Chase’s real son.The t
Eric and Jane went back to Jane’s apartment. Jane changed her clothes, but Eric hadn’t changed his. They sat in the living room wordlessly. Even though they have kissed in the rain before, there are still uncertain things that Jane wanted to talk about. “Since when?” Jane broke the silence. With wet hair, Eric stared at Jane. “Since when did you remember the future?” Eric stared at her and answered, “Tonight. I only remembered everything tonight.” Jane drew a sharp breath before asking again. “H-How?” Eric’s hands clenched. He lowered his head and answered, “At first, I saw illusions. I thought it was just a weird dream. But after some time, I figured out that it was not. When I saw an image of you and Eugene, I searched for you again, Jane. That’s how I found you here.” “You mean, you saw us from the illusion?” “Yes.” ‘Now that explains why Eric suddenly appeared in our neighborhood,’ Jane realized. “But I am not sure why I saw those. The present and the illusion contr
