Chapter 37

Maybelline Walter POV

'I have been looking for you for fifteen years, Maybelline. I'm glad I finally found you, my daughter'

'Your mom was my college sweetheart, but we separated after graduation and I later got married. Fate brought us together again years later, but I was already married then and my wife was pregnant at that time. We had a thing together because of an old spark, and she got pregnant with you' My heart wrenched painfully as his words replayed in my head. I tried to hold back my tears as I sat in the backseat of the cab I boarded, but it was so difficult that I eventually had to let it all out.

'What happened afterward?' As much as I was already disgusted by the story, I couldn't help but ask him as I looked into his eyes back there, but his reply rather left me disappointed.

'My wife found out about the pregnancy, and I had to pay your Mom to abort you. I was wrong, May... I shouldn't have done that... I should've fought for her' I was impressed that he di

    Chapter 38Maybelline Walter POV"How are you feeling? Are you ok?" Miles held my hand and patted my hair with worries written all over me, but I only nodded. I couldn't bring myself to tell him about what happened. I had no idea how to go about it."Do you want to eat anything?" He squeezed my hand gently."No, I'm fine," I slowly shook my head, and he nodded.An awkward silence assumed the atmosphere. I placed my hand on my stomach, worried about my child. I wished I could see the doctor and probably had a chance to ask him if my baby was fine, but I couldn't."I'll be back shortly. Get some rest," He stood up from the bed and left. A few minutes later, fortunately, the doctor walked inside and I was glad that it wasn't Miguel since it was their hospital I was brought to."How are you feeling now?" He came to stand beside the bed I was lying on, and examined me briefly."I'm fine. How is my baby, doc? Is he fine?" I asked worriedly as I sat up on the bed. He looked at me and smiled.

    Chapter 39"Are you sure she'll be fine, Doc?" Miles asked the doctor for the umpteenth time over the phone."Yes, Mr. Miles. All she need is a good rest, and she'll come out strong,""What about the baby? Are you sure the baby is fine also?""You have nothing to worry about. I would've told you if the baby was not fine, so it's nothing to worry about," He breathed out in relief after the doctor assured him."Thank you so much,""Alright. I got to go now," He breathed out again after the call ended, and sank his fingers into his hair while sitting on the edge of the bed. "What happened to her? Was she assaulted by that bastard again?" Even though the doctor already told him earlier that it wasn't an assault, he still thought maybe it was something of such, especially as Oscar escaped and was no longer under his custody.The sound of his ringing phone disrupted his thoughts, and he quickly reached for it and swiped the answer button when he saw that it was Miguel."Shoot!""Man, I'm a

    Chapter 40May Walter POVThe sound of the knock on my door from outside caught my attention, and I paused brushing my teeth. I heard the knock a few times before the sound of door opening and closing followed suit. I needed no one to tell me that the person was Miles since he was the only one living here aside from his brother who of course must be at the hospital as usual by this time."Coming..." I found Miles seated on the bed when I walked inside. He stood up and smiled at me."Good morning, wife,""Hmm... Good morning. You are ready for office already? I guess I woke up late," I muttered the last part."How are you feeling now?""I'm much better. Uhm... I'm not going to take much time in the...""You don't have to worry about coming with me to the office today. I got a secretary, and also an assistant, so you can just rest at home since you are not feeling too well," He tucked his hands inside his pockets, looking straight at me."Oh!" I only mouthed, many thoughts flashed throu

    Chapter 41May Walter POV"Wife, I made breakfast. You should come to the dining let's eat together," Miles's voice sounded from outside a few minutes after I stepped out of the bathroom."Alright. I'll be there in a couple of minutes,""I'll be waiting," I heard his receding footsteps afterwards, and I presumed he must've gone back.It's been five days since we did the DNA test thing, and we were supposed to get the result today. For the umpteenth time, I picked up my phone and checked to see if my acclaimed Dad had sent me a text, but he didn't. I was grateful he didn't text me all this while just as I had demanded, but I was nervous since the result will be out today."Don't be nervous, May. You'll get over this," I assured myself and took a deep long breath before I walked out of my room and headed to the dining room to join Miles.My mouth salivated as the aroma of food welcomed me downstairs."You're here... Come have a seat," Miles didn't cease to be the sweet husband that alw

Many questions popped up in my head. Why me? Does he not have other kids? How could he trust me when we just met? Just because I'm his daughter doesn't mean that I'll be good to him, don't you think so?'I will have my driver go drop you off' He had offered earlier, but I declined immediately before I left his house. Maybe I should've agreed to it because it's really difficult to get a cab here since it was close to an estate.My phone beeped, and I hesitantly checked to see that it was a text from him.'Hoping to hear from you soon' I rolled my eyes and kept my phone away after I read through the text.My phone vibrated in my my pocket a few minutes later, and I cursed out silently as I reached for it, thinking it was Mr. Williams calling me yet again, but I quickly swiped

    Chapter 43"I know I was too harsh on her, but why would she say that to me?" Miles ran his fingers through his hair frustratingly as he paced restlessly in his room."I mean..." He paused and slumped on his bed, his fingers sinking into his hair."I'm not that bad, am I? Is she just mad at me or am I really not her type?" Thinking about everything she had said to him earlier really hurt no matter how he tried to push it away. "But I already apologized to her that I was sorry for saying those words to her. Why would she be so harsh on me?" He muttered and breathed in and out.'You started it all, Miles. You shouldn't be complaining' His subconscious mind reminded him, and he groaned as he dragged himself up to his feet and dashed out of the room.A few minutes later, Miles was standing in front of the door, contemplating on whether or not to knock on the door. What if she was still mad at him for saying that? What if she really didn't want to see him?'She already paid you back. She

    Chapter 44After a long ride, Lilly arrived at the hospital and pulled over at the parking lot."Ugh! Finally! I thought I was never going to get here," She breathed out tiredly as she removed her car keys, tossed it inside her handbag, grabbed the small plastic bag beside her, and stepped out of the car."Hey, Lily. You look good as always," Lily couldn't hide her excitement when he colleague complimented her as soon as she stepped into the hospital."Thank you," She smiled and proceeded to her office."Hey, Lily," One of the male nurses smiled at her as he walked toward her in the opposite direction."Hey, Donald,""Wow! You're looking beautiful as always. Is there any special occasion? You look different," Donald raised his eyebrows after he checked her out. Although she has always been a gorgeous young lady, but she looked really different. Unlike every other days she would go to work with no makeup on, it was different today. Her appearance was evident that she really took her ti

    Chapter 45May POVLily's familiar car approached as I stood in front of the gate, waiting for her to show up and pick me up so we could leave already. She soon pulled over in front of me, then wined down the glass and crooked her neck out with a warm smile on her face."Have I been keeping you and my godchild waiting?""You bet," I rolled my eyes as I walked over to the other side of the car and hopped in the front seat with her."Be careful with that, please. You don't want to hurt my godchild," She gasped sharply and teased me as I struggled with the seatbelt."Thanks for your concern, but shut your mouth," I rolled my eyes at her and relaxed on the chair once I was able to fasten my seatbelt."So, tell me... What did you say you wanted to tell me? I came down here because of that, so don't keep me waiting," She turned her attention to me with an anxious look on her face like she was desperate to hear whatever gist I had for her, and of course, I knew she was desperate for it.

    Chapter 46 May POV "Aren't you coming inside? I should offer you juice to take," I bent over the car window once I alighted from the car. Lily had just come to drop me off at the front of the gate. "It's late already. Let's make it some other time. I need to head home early so I can wake up early for work tomorrow," She reminded me, and I nodded. "That's fine. When are we going to see eachother again?" "I don't know yet, but I'll find a way to see you during the week or by the weekend. Bye! And don't forget to make progress with my in-law. Stop being so guarded," I rolled my eyes as I straightened my back. "Bye," She chuckled as she wined up the glass. I turned and headed inside once she drove off. It was already 7:30pm, and everywhere was dark. I was just about to head to the entrance door when my phone started to ring, and I checked to see that the caller was Miles. This was the fifth time he was calling me in thirty minutes, asking where I was. Since I was alread
