Klay’s POVI was driving my car to go to the place where I can find Emily when one of my men called. I sent some of my people to guard Kelly from the dark. I know she wouldn't like it but I need to do this. I’ve been watching her for quite a while now. This is not only to keep her safe, but to keep me sane. I need information about what she's doing every day so I can sleep peacefully at night. To know that she’s happy and content was the only reason I have for watching her. I’m fine with that.[Sir, Miss Kelly was ambushed.]The loud screech of my car was the result of my sudden brake. I gritted my teeth and grabbed my phone from the dashboard.“What did you say?”[They were going home when someone shot their car’s tire. She’s safe, but her guards are still chasing the shooter.]I clenched my jaws and without thinking twice, I maneuvered the car and took a U-turn.It’s Kelly so no matter where I’m going or how important I’m going to do, I will always turn around and run back to her. I
Kelly’s POVPierce’s men are now evacuating all the employees in my dad and mom’s company. We’re just about to leave to help when one of the guards left to guard us fell on the floor, bleeding and lifeless. I gasped as I stared at his eyes that were still open. He got a gunshot wound on his forehead and my heart immediately raced in fear. I remember the night I was kidnapped when I was young. It was scary and... traumatizing.Pierce immediately grabbed my hand and dragged me towards the kitchen while the other guards were welcoming the newly arrived enemies with gunshots. What he did brought me back to reality.One of the guards gave Pierce a gun before he went out to help the others. I’m panicking and all I could think about is surviving this day without getting hurt or losing my baby or Pierce.“Where are we going?” I asked while I still could hear the loud gunshots echoing in the whole house.Pierce licked his bottom lip and opened the sliding door. “We need to escape.”He guided m
Klay’s POVI continued digging the soil until I found a casket. My eyes widened after I opened it and saw Emily inside. She’s pale and unconscious. No! No! Kelly will hate me more! She will never forgive me if she loses Emily.I carried Emily and laid her on the grass. I leaned and listened to her heartbeat. I cursed out loud and started giving her CPR.“Emily! Emily, open your fcking eyes!” I said gritting my teeth before I gave her air through her mouth. I did it constantly until I heard her coughing and gasping for air.I looked at her while panting. I swallowed hard and helped her sit. She looked at me while gasping for air and when our gazes met, her eyes immediately watered and she cried so hard as she lifted her arm and caressed my cheek.“Leo!” She sobbed.I clenched my jaws. Leo…I carried her in a bridal way before she could hug me. “I’ll bring you to the hospital.”I should bring her to the hospital even if people might recognize me as a wanted criminal.I gently put Emily
Kelly’s POVI held my breath for a while before I blew it roughly while sitting on the bed. The house was old but it had complete furniture. I was also amazed by how the mansion stayed beautiful in spite of the fact that no one’s taking care of it.“You should sleep now,” Pierce whispered as he sat beside me and held my hand. “I’ll look after you.”I nodded and slowly lay on the bed. He lay beside me, hugged my waist and started brushing my hair using his fingers.“I was so scared earlier,” I whispered. “I thought we'd lose each other.”He shook his head and kissed my hair. “No one’s losing anyone, Kelly.”I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I was almost dozing off when I heard Mason’s loud voice followed by a series of bangs on the door.“GET UP!”I got off the bed, following Pierce as he walked towards the door and opened it. I saw Mason knocking on another door and Matt went out of that room. He looked worried and miserable. I know he wants to save Emily, but he still needs to
Kelly’s POVI sucked my breath as I started panting. I sniffed and swallowed hard, realizing nothing pierce through my skin. I wasn’t shot. Who was shot?Tears rolled down my cheeks as I thought of one possible reason why there was no bullet that pierce through my skin. Slowly, with racing and aching heart, I turned around, praying that Pierce was safe. Hoping that he’s still unconscious.My lips parted as I cupped my mouth when I saw what happened behind me. Connor is lifeless while lying on the ground. He has a gunshot wound in between his eyes and…Klay was standing in front of me. I was facing his back and he’s slowly falling to his knees.“Klay!” I exclaimed and gasped as I caught him. He was heavy so we fell on the ground together.My lips parted again and trembled when he looked at me and coughed blood. The rain kept on pouring heavily as if comforting me. My eyes watered again as I stared at his face.“K-Klay…” My heart felt like it was being suffocated while looking at him.He
Kelly’s POVThe doctor assured me that the baby inside me is safe. When the doctor visited me, I asked her about the baby even if Pierce already told about it. Another doctor, a gyne, prescribed me vitamins and told me about the things I should do like exercise. After my heart to heart talk with Pierce, I fell asleep and woke up with a delicious scent of food. I saw Pierce preparing the food while standing in front of the bedside table.He glanced at me and smiled when he saw me looking. “You’re hungry?”I nodded and smiled back. “Yes.”He finished preparing the food and sat on the bed beside me. He helped me sit on the bed before he started feeding me. He was also feeding himself using the same spoon and I couldn’t help but stare at him.“Mom called,” Pierce said while we’re eating. “Snow’s enjoying her school. I guess we just have to let her finish her schooling there and just bring her here every summer.”I smiled and nodded at him. “That’s a good idea. It’s better for her to stay
Kelly’s POVThe bomb threat on the company created chaos. After my three week break, I decided to go back to work. I’m managing my father’s company and I completely stepped down from my mom’s company and gave the authority to Sara. Matt is now working in a hospital while Mason is helping Sara manage the company. He’s also taking care of the sunflower plantation and the hacienda that our family left to us. It’s not like I don’t want any connection with them. It’s just that I think they deserve the riches of the Foster family more than I deserve it. Besides, I already have my dad’s company and assets, I’m already content with what I have.I bought ice coffee from the shop across from my company. My other hand was inside the pocket of my pants while walking. I’m wearing a maternity floral dress and on my neck was the lace of my company ID.My phone beeped and I smiled after seeing Pierce’s name on the screen. He sent me a message and I laughed hard when I saw the photo he sent me. It was
Emily’s POV“Hi!”I lifted my face and rolled my eyes when I saw him again. He’s been following me for the past few days and I don’t know what to do to him. He kept on saying that he’s my stalker and that he fell in love with me at first sight. He’s handsome, yes. He’s fit to be my ideal man, yes. He’s professional, yes. He’s hot, fcking yes! But I don’t know him. According to him, and to my doctor, I have amnesia and I confirmed it when I saw the year on the calendar. I forgot my present and maybe, Matt Foster is part of that present.“Frowning again? I told you that won’t work on me. You’re still beautiful in my eyes.”I looked away and rolled my eyes but I’m actually hiding my smile. I don’t know. He’s annoying but I always find myself hiding a smile while my heart is racing inside my chest.I have amnesia. My mind doesn’t remember him but my heart does. It races whenever he’s near and It aches whenever he’s not around. Actually, I remember him telling me that he’s my boyfriend. I
