Belle's misery with Gwen continued but she chose not to worsen the situation by not telling Ethan. Whatever was happening at school, Belle tried to leave it and go home with her usual sweet smile. It's the only thing that she looked forward to every end of the day.
"Who do you think you are Belle? You are just a filthy girl who used her filthy body to have money now" Gwen throws her insults to Belle again when she was at the shed, reading her notes.
"I'm not doing anything to you Gwen why are you always angry at me?" Belle asked with her calm tone.
"You disgust me, why are you here in the first place?" Gwen scoffed at Belle.
"I'm working hard to study here Gwen and I'm not disturbing you in any way" Belle explained with her calm voice, she thought she h
"Pete, gather all the Board of Directors of EDV Medical Center at 5 this afternoon and the Board of Directors of K University at 6 in the evening" Ethan ordered with his coldest demeanor Pete and his secretaries have ever seen.After the phone call Ethan receives, he becomes so distant and his deadly aura is emitting even if he is just quietly sitting in his chair with a very distant look.Ethan's jaw is tightly clenched, while his eyes are throwing daggers. Even in the most difficult business deals of different companies under D & V Enterprise, they never saw him with this kind of anger.An emergency meeting with the two sets of Board of Directors in a gap
The ugly situation that Belle had earlier at school was temporarily set aside when Ethan arrived and pampered her with so much attention and her favorite food. After their sumptuous dinner, Belle had three bowls of gelato which made Ethan grimace while watching her devour too much sweets.Even if Belle seemed to look fine, Ethan still prepared her a warm bath to relax her stiff muscle and relieve the stress that she surely had."Ethan, hhmm...enough" Belle gently whined when Ethan kept nibbling her lips while they are already cuddled in bed."You tasted good baby, you tasted like...gelato" Ethan teased Belle with a mischievous smile."No it's not! I brushed
After witnessing the Dean's forceful eviction from his own office, Belle is ready to go home but she entered the waiting vehicle with some conflicted thoughts while her driver instantly smiled at her."How's your day young mistress?" Mac asked with his usual warm smile for Belle."Great Mr. Mac, but our Dean was terminated from his position and I don't know if I will be sad or be happy" Belle mumbled softly with her confused look."Everything happens for a reason young mistress, maybe it's for the better" Mac pacified the conflicted girl who still have a far away look at the back seat."That's exactly what we all have been thinking, maybe it's for the better" Belle mumbled softly and smiled warmly at Mac."Yes young mistress" Mac agreed easily and smiled."Mr. Mac? Can we visit Ethan at his office? It's still early and I have nothing to study so maybe I could visit him again?" Belle timidly asked Mac who smiled
"Belle, really you need to eat more, you are so skinny. Do you take your vitamins everyday?" Ethan asked when he was washing Belle's hair under the warm shower."Yes I do Ethan, Mr. Oh will always give me my vitamins after breakfast" Belle mumbled while enjoying the warm water running down her body, with only her underwear while Ethan was in his naked glory again. They are taking a shower together, early in the morning as they usually do and Belle was used to be this intimate to the man who seemed to have no inhibitions towards her.She was shocked and embarrassed the first time she saw Ethan's hard member, yes hard, Ethan was always hard everytime they are together at the bathroom. At first, she was so embarrassed looking at Ethan's very intimate part but along the way she was used to it since Ethan would always ins
Belle's classmates were all at awe at the elegance of the restaurant where they were brought by the CEO's executive assistant. They are all from prominent families and they were used to such luxuries but the distinctive and generous reception from the restaurant and its officers are simply exemplary not because of their every family backgrounds but because they are guests to the famous CEO.The food had started to arrive when Belle and Ethan entered with some bodyguards tailing behind and in an instant the atmosphere became so imposing because of the CEO's arrival."Sorry if we are late..." Belle apologized to everyone while Ethan was helping her to sit down."You
"Don't act haughty here Gwen, Steven, you should be grateful you still have a hospital to do your internship" Phil whispered after he saw Gwen and her boyfriend scoffed at his father's words. He even looked straight to their eyes and stared with his intent and challenging gaze.Gwen just subtly glared at Phil but did not counter while Steven stared at Phil sharply."Don't act smug Phil, your father is just a temporary director...my father will contest the decision of the board and let's all see where it would bring yo
After the sumptuous yet tense lunch date with Belle's classmates, Ethan and Pete went back to D&V Enterprise and straight to the conference room for another meeting.Ethan's and Peter's dark aura are already making the staff nervous while they all entered the conference room which added to the already tense atmosphere inside.The men who were waiting instantly stood up when the CEO's entourage walked in."Good day Mr. CEO…" everyone stood up and greeted in unison while cautiously glancing at the CEO's grim expression."Let's start…" Ethan announced briefly while he took his p
Ethan and Pete went back straight to the CEO's office while Ethan was still fuming in anger after they left the conference room."How's Belles check up?" Pete asked to divert Ethan's attention from his anger which expectedly succeeded."She has undergone some blood tests and x-ray earlier but the doctor assured us that her body structure is just normal for her age. I told them to submit all of Belle's results here, you prioritize it once it's delivered" Ethan responded and ordered while he was signing several documents on his table."Yes I will advise Mitch to personally receive it" Pete replied.
"Good day Mr. CEO" hospital staff greeted Ethan as he walked past several employees on the way to Belle's private office. Ethan would just nod in response to everyone while maintaining his serious and stoic face. His presence in EDV has been on a regular basis since he was spending his lunch time with his wife. Belle is still engrossed with her discussion with Phil when the door opened and Ethan stepped inside with his cool aura. "Your delicious lunch is here, served in coat and tie" Phil whispered playfully after he turned to the door and saw Ethan. "and very hot…" Belle responded playfully while she stared at Ethan with her sultry look, making Ethan smirk.
The whole family gathered at one table with the children, Neo and Amber, while Carmeine is asleep in Darvid's arms."What happened?" Lucas asked calmly while looking at Ethan and Park before he stared at Neo who stared back at his grandfather with his calm gaze."Migz hurt Amber, he pushed her with his elbow because he doesn't want to play with her. He kept on picking on Amber even if she didn't do anything wrong to him" Neo softly explained to his grandfather like an adult while everyone listened earnestly."He insulted Amber, he told her that she is a homeless girl because her parents don't want her and she was adopted by… shamel
Belle plastered a smile on her face as she entered the huge function room where the family and closest friends and associates gather for another DelValle's birthday party. Her smile widened when she spotted her little family mingled with other guests. She went to her son first who is near the door, playing."Hello baby, I'm sorry mama's late" Belle bent to greet her son who is playing with a four year old cousin. Neo instantly smiled, the moment he spotted his mother approaching him."It's okay mama, you made it on time. Is the baby okay?" Neo responded with a fond smile while he looked at his mother's beautiful face."Yes buddy, t
Belle entered the hotel where she will be meeting the entire family for Carmeine's first birthday, Cassey's and David's baby girl, when she bumped into someone very familiar to her."Belle… oh sorry, it's Dr. Belle DelValle" the woman greeted her with such sophistication that if it was six years ago she would feel tremendously insecure."Miss Smith…." Belle smiled back as she stopped and faced the woman who still looked like a doll despite her retirement from the glamorous life as a model."You look great Dr. Belle and a very famous doctor now…" Sylvia spoke with a calculated tone and a too familiar smile which creeped
Belle is ushered to the certain table reserved only for her in a five star restaurant owned by the family. She will be waiting for Ethan to join her for lunch."Doctor Belle, here is your water" the waiter said with a smile."Thank you" Belle nodded and smiled.She was busy messaging Ethan when she noticed a boy in the counter area, arranging clean dinnerware. His movement is very awkward, obviously a new help in the kitchen.She sent her message to Ethan and continued to watch the boy with what he is doing. He looked hardworking but a bit awkward, obviously so afraid to break something, which is very understandable for a newbie like him.
"Sir good day, can I ask if Dr. Belle is already here?" the boy politely asked the guard who stared at him suspiciously."You are the same boy from yesterday, right?" the guard asked curiously when the boy looked familiar."Yes sir, I'm with my father yesterday. Can I ask if Dr. Belle is here today?" the boy smiled timidly before he tried to squint to look inside the hospital."Dr. Belle will not be coming today again, boy. If you want, you can just leave your phone number so I could call you if she arrives here" the guard offered while looking at the boy with sympathy. Obviously the boy is not from around the city based on his old fashioned clothes which he clearly inherited from some old relatives or his father.
"One of the country's most prominent surgeons, Dr. Belle Perez-DelValle has again led the conduct of another successful medical mission to hundreds of patients for medical consultations and ten lucky recipients of free surgical procedures at EDV Medical Center. As we all remember, every year, Dr. Belle has been giving free surgery to economically deprived patients aside from different scholarships that her foundations have awarded to several hard working students""Dr. Belle Perez-DelValle's philanthropic deeds had been a great help to the populace of the city and even of the entire country. She has even earned a name as the 'living Saint for the poor' by several people she had helped. Such an endearing name for a great doctor who never turned her back to anyone who needed her help, she indeed deserves the name. A once waitress, struggling to have two decent meals a day is now the beacon of h
Neo became the crowd favorite when Belle and Ethan brought him for the first time as his first public appearance when Belle was invited for a ribbon cutting of the new pediatric clinic of her friend and senior from medical.Three months ago, Belle together with all her classmates took the physician licensure examination and just last week the result was out and 90% of their batchmates passed. Next week she will be starting her residency at EDV together with Phil and Shine, and some of their classmates.The crowd started to gather as the news scattered like a wildfire that the DelValle heir is out today for the public to see.Everyo
"Ooh...he is asleep already" Belle whispered very softly while she ever so slowly sat down beside a half naked Ethan and a two month old baby boy, also naked and only in his diaper.Ethan smiled tenderly and caressed the naked back of their baby, comfortably snuggled on his chest."He likes to sleep there always" Belle smiled lovingly and slowly leaned down to kiss the back of their tiny boy and Ethan's lips."That's why he kept on whimpering earlier in his crib, he wanted a cuddle from dada" Ethan whispered softly with a proud smirk adorned his handsome face.
