Kelly’s POV

Pierce’s painful betrayal drove me to rage. I threw my phone on the floor and rushed to the kitchen. I saw Klay sitting on the chair while a maid was serving the food for breakfast. I ignored them and went to search the cupboard.

I need to numb myself. It’s so painful I couldn’t endure it. I need to at least forget what I saw by drawing my attention to something.

I found alcohol. I quickly opened it but Klay suddenly snatched the bottle from me and replaced it with a glass of milk.

I looked at him angrily. “Give that back!”

He clenched his jaws. “No.”

“Give that back, Klay!”

“Are you trying to kill the baby inside you?”

That made me still. I stared at him as I started sobbing. My heart is aching so much. I waited for him to visit me in the hospital. I’ve been thinking about contacting him, worried that he’s worrying about me but everything I thought was wrong.

He’s not even worried about me. He’s sleeping with his woman while I’ve been thinking about him. He changed. So mu

  • Divorce My Best Friend, Carrying His Baby   Chapter 27 The Invitation

    Kelly’s POVI sniffed and tried to calm myself when I felt Klay’s presence behind me. I looked down and wiped my wet cheeks, avoiding eye contact with him through the mirror.“You don’t have to hide anything from me, Kelly.”I squeezed my eyes closed and tightened my grip on the sink. I felt Klay hold my waist and made me face him. I opened my eyes when he gently cupped my cheeks, wiping my tears.“He doesn’t deserve you.”Biting my bottom lip, I met his eyes. “I want to forget him, Klay. I’ve been trying but I think I’m just fooling myself.”He pressed his forehead on mine as our eyes locked. For a moment, I was frozen because of what he did. The coldest man I’ve ever known just showed sympathy. I don’t know what to do.“You can forget him, Kelly. I will help you.”“W-What do you mean?” My heart raced at the same time a certain emotion flickered in his eyes.He swallowed hard and moved even closer, squeezing our bodies together. For some reason, I shivered at the sudden contact.“Be…

    Kelly’s POV‘My future husband is your best friend so we’re expecting you at our engagement party. Don’t disappoint us, Kelly.’I balled my fists and threw the invitation on the floor. I sat on the bed and cupped my head as I tried to calm myself down. I can’t break down again. I might put my baby’s life at risk and that’s the very last thing I’d want to happen. My baby before anything else.I caressed my belly that’s almost four months old. The baby bump is starting to show. I swallowed hard and squeezed my eyes as I reminisced about the old days. Lexi has always been Pierce’s great love. He was in love with her ever since. How can I replace the woman who never left his heart in the first place? Lexi was right. I was just a substitute. Pierce would never look at me the way I wanted him to look at me. He would never love me the way I loved him.I remember those days I always caught him watching Lexi from afar when we were in high school. While I was looking at him, he was looking at h

  • Divorce My Best Friend, Carrying His Baby   Chapter 29 Truth Revealed

    Kelly’s POVI glanced at Klay who sat beside me and crossed his arms. He seemed to notice my stares so he looked at me. I immediately looked away and bore my eyes outside the plane’s window. I still couldn’t believe that he’d come with me knowing how much he hates to be disturbed by just anyone.“Do you need anything?” He asked after a few seconds.I immediately shook my head. “Nothing.”I felt him move and after a while, he put something in my ear. I immediately bore my eyes at him but he just closed his eyes and rested the back of his head on the headrest. That’s when soft music started playing. He put an earbud in my right ear.“Just sleep. I’ll wake you up when it’s time to eat.”To stop my silly thoughts, I just squeezed my eyes close to sleep. It didn’t take me long to fall asleep but when I woke up, I flinched as realization sank into me. I’m leaning on Klay and sleeping comfortably on his shoulder.I heard someone giggle so I lifted my face and found a flight stewardess pourin

  • Divorce My Best Friend, Carrying His Baby   Chapter 30 Rekindled Fire

    Kelly’s POVI looked at Klay again. He moved closer to me and I felt goosebumps when he brushed his nose against my cheek as he whispered… “Your baby bump will show soon. Relax, Kelly. I’ll handle this.”I swallowed hard and pressed my lips together. When I looked at Pierce again, his eyes were sharp. He grabbed a drink and drank it in one gulp before he looked at me with his angry and cold eyes. I immediately averted my gaze and Lexi, who seemed so surprised, looked at Klay.“You mean…you two really are a couple? It’s…yours, I suppose,” Lexi chuckled, obviously nervous.Klay just stood silently beside me. I watched Pierce as he turned his back without a word and walked away. Lexi immediately followed him.“Why did you do that?” I asked Klay after we were left alone.He looked into my eyes. “Would you rather get caught later?”“Still!” I growled at him. “You should’ve discussed your plans with me firsthand. How could you decide on your own?”“You don’t wanna talk to me.”“What?” My fo

  • Divorce My Best Friend, Carrying His Baby   Chapter 31 When the Tables Have Turned

    Kelly’s POVI took the opportunity to leave when Pierce paused in shock after what I said. I glared at him one last time before I opened the door and slammed it close.How could he try to touch me after everything that happened?Oh God! I couldn’t believe him! He’s really changed. The old him would never disrespect me that way even when he’s angry. The old him would lower his voice the moment he realized his mistakes and would immediately apologize for what he’s done wrong.I was about to go back and find Klay so we could immediately leave this nonsense party when I bumped into Lexi in the hallway. Her eyes were fixated on me and were sharp as if firing a hole right in my head.“Where’s Pierce?” She asked with gritted teeth.I shot an eyebrow up and tilted my head. “Do I look like a lost and found agency?”She advanced another step, probably to intimidate me, but poor her, I would never be intimidated by her.“You should be ashamed, Kelly! You’re trying to seduce my fiance at our enga

    Kelly’s POVKlay was silent the whole time we’re in the car. He was just sitting beside me with a straight face and I’m thankful that he didn’t ask anything. However, I’m worried about what’s going on in his mind.I bit my bottom lip as I remembered what happened between me and Pierce.He kissed me and my heart instantly beat for him again. This is insanely absurd but I know I couldn’t lie to myself anymore. I’m still in love with him. Even after everything that he’s done and he didn’t do.“What do you want for dinner?” Klay asked as soon as we entered the huge family house.Right! I haven’t eaten anything. Aside from the fact that Lexi ruined my mood, I don’t wanna eat the food in their ‘grand’ engagement party.“Just pasta,” I answered without looking at him. I’m still pissed about what he did. He just claimed my baby as his own and he decided on it without consulting me.I went upstairs leaving him coldly. When I entered my room, I suddenly felt exhausted. I swallowed hard and reme

    Kelly’s POVI was checking the lists of the flowers that will be delivered to my shop next week. I don’t know how Klay did that but he was able to buy a shop that can be converted to flowershop. He told me about it just this morning and now I’m excited to open my own business where I could pour all my attention to.My phone suddenly rang. It was an unregistered number. Thinking it was from the suppliers, I quickly answered the call.“Hello?”[Kelly, this is Pierce’s mom.]My heart instantly raced because of that familiar voice. I swallowed hard before I pulled myself up, bit my bottom lip and walked towards the window.“Y-Yes, Mrs. Anderson?”She has always been kind to me and she shouldn’t get involved with my anger towards her son. I treasure her and treat her like my own mother and disrespecting her is a big no to me.[Can we meet, Kelly?]Meet? For what? Although it shocked me, I slowly nodded as if she’s in front of me. “Of course, Mrs. Anderson.”I heard her sighed. [Thank you.

    Kelly’s POV“Let me go,” I said coldly as I shot him cold glares. His expression softened and his eyes flickered with a strange emotion. Fear? Pain? I don’t know and I don’t care. I just talked to his mother and told her that I will not get involved in her son’s life anymore. It would be my shame if I didn’t act upon my words.“Can we…talk for a while?”My forehead creased. “Talk? What’s there to talk about?”“Please, Kelly. I want to clear things between us.”Clear things. Right! He’s right. We should talk about us and end us properly. We never had the chance to have a closure and that’s probably the reason why I still hold onto him and still hurting because of his broken promises. Maybe I can finally let go of our bitter ending once we talked this out.I looked at him blankly and slowly nodded, “Fine.”I averted my gaze from him when he smiled as his eyes twinkled for some reason. He seemed so happy that I agreed to talk to him about us. I don’t know what’s on his mind but I only ha

He can easily find me because of the nature of my job, but I didn’t expect him to come here when his brother didn’t even visit me once.It’s not like I want him to visit me after I dumped him but…“Argh!” I groaned and grabbed my hair. I can’t believe I’m having such problems.Someone knocked on the door, making me jump in shock. I caressed my forehead and opened the door. I saw my manager looking at me with a creased forehead.“You’re still awake?”I rolled my eyes at him. “You knocked. I opened the door. Obviously, I’m still awake.”He glared at me. “You need to rest, Emily. You still have a photoshoot tomorrow. I want your face to look natural in the camera.
