The private plane safely landed and the two men stretched their rigid bodies from the almost 20hours flight and just two stopovers.
Pete instantly opened his phone and messages flooded his inbox. He was used to a lot of impending messages during long flights so he just casually scrolled through the most important ones.
His eyes furrowed when a message from someone "particular" caught his immediate attention.
"The sparrow left her nest"
Ethan wanted to throw his wrath to everyone but it will still not bring back his Belle. He just wants Belle to return safely and he can forgive everyone. He has been compromising in his mind since he went out of the plane just to have Belle safe in his arms again.Belle would not want him to be angry and punish anyone, he will do anything Belle wanted just to make her happy."Master Ethan, can I wait for the young mistress's return before I will be kicked out?" Mac nervously asked."Me too master Ethan, please allow me to see the young mistress safely home before I will leave the mansion" Mr. Oh softly muttered with his forlorn look.
I saw her go out of the cafe with tears in her beautiful eyes. Who has the heart to make this innocent girl cry. Her beautiful eyes are full of tears and her cheeks wet.She is walking dazedly and obviously without direction. Her eyes are blank and has a far away look as she keeps on walking in the middle of the crowd unaffected even if she has been bumped and nudged.She kept walking and I decided to follow her in a busy street. I fixed my cap and continued to walk behind her.There is a bus parked ahead of us waiting for passengers and I was surprised that she climbed on it, so I followed, I saw her go straight to a vacant seat to sit down without a fare so I just gestured
The girl seemed to be in a very deep thoughts while she continued to stare at me."He hasn't lied to me, ever. He is a very honorable man, everybody is afraid of him but at the same time respects him so much" she whispered softly with a very warm smile carved in her lips."Then everything in that net is all lies. The internet is not to be trusted, especially with facts. Do you trust the internet more than him?" I said matter of factly but she just gaped at me in return."I saw her with the beautiful woman in the video. They looked so good together, they are a perfect match just like everyone was saying" she mumbled softly with her forlorn and far away look."Videos and images are very easy to manipulate these days. With the technology we have now, it's no longer impossible to do the impossible. Technology is very powerful so be careful of what you see because it might destroy what you believe" I added with a warm smile and I saw her beca
Ethan just continued to stand in the middle of the road waiting for the girl who really took her time walking the long pavement towards the mansion.Belle is staring intently at Ethan when she got nearer but did not quicken her pace, she still linger on her casual walk, just like she was at the park, strolling.Ethan just let her and when Belle stood in front of him, he just kept on staring at the girl he missed so much. Her eyes looked tired and puffy which made Ethan to grit his teeth in devastation."Welcome home Ethan, I'm sorry I got home late" Belle mumbled softly with remorse in her voice but did not do anything to close the small gap between them."What happened?" Ethan gently asked with his almost inaudible voice.
Belle was carried by Ethan like a koala bear as her favorite position when they went up to their bedroom after they said goodnight to everyone.After her night routine, Belle sneaked to her library to arrange her school works and some notes for tomorrow. It's already past midnight so she silently went out of the library when she froze while staring at the face that is very familiar to her."Mr.?" Belle whispered softly while the man put his index finger on his lips."Goodnight Belle, sleep well" the man whispered and entered the room where Pete is always staying when he is in the mansion.Belle looked stunned as she continued to stare at the already shut door. She unawarely stayed too long that she didn't notice Ethan was already beside her.
"The eldest son?" Belle asked curiously."He is my older brother who despised being tied to the pedestal of being a DelValle" Ethan explained with a warm smile while Belle nodded."That's why he is not with you to manage the company?" Belle asked again while thinking deep."Yes...because he was a rebel child, the black sheep of the family who loves to make trouble and he doesn't want to be associated with the DelValle and all its fortune. He told me that he will build his own empire and not rely on our family" Ethan explained while Belle is just attentively listening."But when I went
Belle looked around the huge construction site where Ethan brought her on a weekend.It's almost lunch time but the workers are still busy and they all looked tired of their hard work."Ethan? Can't they rest?" Belle asked while looking with pity in her eyes while Ethan stared at her and looked around the busy workers."They will baby, in a while" Ethan explained, he saw pity in Belle's eyes and knew what's running in her mind."It just looked strenuous but it's not Belle, they have the machinery that assists them, they are just doing what the machines and the mechanism cannot do" Ethan explained patiently.Belle gaped at Ethan and nodded in full understanding but she knew that construction
"The doctors said I'm healthy now" Belle mumbled and gently sucked Ethan's neck as they were taking a shower before bed."Hmm...Belle what are you doing?" Ethan trembled and goosebumps covered his whole body when he felt Belle's warm tongue and lips on his skin.Belle's pinkish and warm lips are gently sucking and licking Ethan's neck while her two hands are gently roaming his muscled body, caressing his hard abs up to his chest and back down again."Argh...baby..." Ethan growled deeply when Belle's hands reached lower down his stomach, almost in the most sensitive part of his body."Y
"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.
