Klay’s POVMy butler handed me the towel after another round of boxing. I was sweating hard and panting while wiping my sweat. I had a fight with Kelly yesterday and the maid informed me this morning that Kelly skipped her breakfast.I’m pissed with what she’s been doing. I had to send Emily away just because she’s mad about her staying here. I understand that this is her father’s house but my mother was once married to her father. Last night, she just slapped me with the truth that she couldn’t accept me in this house. She loathes me to the bone that she couldn’t even stand living in the same house with me. That was understandable but still it…hurts me.“How is she?” I asked while unwrapping the boxing band around my fists.“She skipped lunch too, Sir.”I squeezed my eyes closed and clenched my jaws. What the fck?I understand that she’s angry and I definitely know how stubborn she is but I can’t believe she could put her baby’s life on the line just to get what she wants. I can’t be
Kelly’s POVI’ve been eating my meals secretly. I had to blackmail Ana to help me lie to everyone around this house so it will reach Klay. Using my own health against him might work so I’m pretending to be not eating for the whole day, just so I can somehow nudge his conscience.I was sitting on the bed and locking myself inside my room. I’m so bored here. I want to go out but I have to sacrifice a little. To rebel so Klay would let me go. I really wanted to start a life on my own and I won’t be able to do that if he’s holding me around my neck and caging me in his world.The night is about to go dark but I’m still waiting for Klay’s decision. Although I would still insist on moving out if he won’t agree.The door suddenly swung open just when I thought of giving up. Klay’s butler entered and I was expecting him to come either but he didn’t“Miss Kelly, Sir Klay gave his permission. You can move out but he strictly instructed that you shouldn't move out too far.”A smile slowly crept
Kelly’s POV“Why did you do that?” I said, trying to hold my temper. My three employees are now around us, waiting for my signal to intervene but I won’t drag them in.“Is this how you treat your customers? Turning your back on them?”“Why? You wanna buy my flowers? Unfortunately, I only sell my flowers to those who genuinely want my products.”She gritted her teeth. “Don’t act so high and mighty, Kelly. You are still a loser. You’re trying so hard to soar high and reach my level but you know that you can never equal me in any aspect.”I laughed sarcastically as I faced her completely. “I’m not trying to equal you because from the very beginning, I am above you. Proven by how you rushed here accusing me of some ridiculous bullsh*ts. You’re just finding someone to blame, Lexi.”“Don’t act so innocent, Kelly! I know you are trying to steal my fiance!”“Are you really accusing me of that, Lexi? Are you that scared of your own shadow? You think I’ll stoop on your level just to get back at
Kelly’s POVHow did he find me? I don’t know what to do while standing in front of him. He was holding my hands while kneeling in front of me. The corner of my eyes pooled with tears. Seeing him like this breaks my heart. I let him go so he can finally be happy with the woman he truly loves but why is he like this?His hair grew. He even has facial hair now. His eyes has dark circles around and he seemed to have lose weight.“H-How did you find me?”He shook his head, “I’m sorry. I-I’ve been following you.”I squeezed my eyes closed and pulled my hands back. “What are you doing, Pierce? Why are you doing this?”My heart feels so heavy. The content of his diary was still messing with my mind and now he’s here, messing with my heart. Why is he so complicated? Why is he doing this to me? He asked me to let him go because he wants his first love back, now he wants me back? For what reason?I pressed my lips together and looked at him with a hardened expression, “You should leave, Pierce.
Pierce’s POVKelly shove me away. She doesn’t wanna see me anymore. She didn’t even believe me when I told her that I’m in love with her. It was all too late for us. I was too late when I realized my feelings. I couldn’t bring back the time, but I want another chance to make things right. I was already with the person I should end up with, but I ruined everything because of my stupid feelings for Lexi.“Where have you been?”I paused right after I entered my house. It was a new house given by my mother as a gift after my engagement with Lexi. She doesn’t want to live in the same house where I used to live with Kelly and I don’t want to live there too because in every corner of that house, I can see the woman I married.I swallowed hard and looked away. I walked towards the kitchen and she trailed me, asking the same question.“I’m asking you, Pierce. Where have you been? You didn’t come home for days. What’s wrong with you?”I didn’t come home because I spent those days in the house w
Kelly’s POVThe morning was calm and bright. I was arranging some bouquets when the door chime created a soft noise and someone entered the shop. I prepared a sweet smile and was about to greet our first customer for the day when I realized who it was.Wearing a black tshirt, faded jeans, black rubber shoes and an exposed necklace with a thick chain and anchor as the pendant, Klay entered with a straight face. He was already walking towards my way.He looked so handsome in his casual attire. I even saw a woman enter the shop after him, looking at him shamelessly, pretending to be interested in flowers.I felt awkward around him because of our argument but I gave him a welcoming smile, “Good morning. Are you looking for a particular flower?”He stopped a meter away from me and roamed his eyes around. My lips parted as I realized he’s too tall and the level of my eyesight just reached his neck.“What flower symbolizes a sincere apology?”An apology? He must’ve upset Emily and he’s tryin
Kelly’s POVI was standing in front of the full length mirror while looking at myself when Klay knocked on my bedroom. I gave him my address to pick me up for the charity gala tonight.When he entered, our gazes met through the mirror. I smiled at him as he looked at me with his usual serious face. I’m wearing a black gown and although my baby bump is now obvious, I could still proudly say that the shape of my body is perfect for the dress.Klay slowly walked towards me and stopped behind me. For some reason, I found myself unable to take my eyes off of him through the mirror. He’s wearing a black suit while his hair is waxed and brushed backwards. He looked so dashing and I can’t help but to silently praise his looks.Without saying anything, Klay put a beautiful necklace on my neck. The elegance of the necklace complimented my dress perfectly. My hair that was curled to the tips reached my waist as the color of my skin stood out from the color of my dress.“You look perfect,” Klay w
Kelly’s POV“PIERCE!” I shouted when Pierce grabbed Klay and punched him on the face. His eyes were sharp and burning as he tried to attack Klay again but I blocked his way, spreading my arms as I protected Klay.Pierce looked at me with painful eyes as he shook his head, “I’m sorry, Kelly. I was forced to say those words…”“Why are you here?” I asked instead of paying attention to what he’s saying.He swallowed hard, “Kelly, I want you back.”“Are you stupid?” Klay punched this time and I couldn’t stop them anymore as they started exchanging punches.Klay knows boxing and I’m worried that he might send Pierce to the hospital but I was shocked after realizing that Pierce can fight too. Since when did he learn to fight?“You want her back? *sshole! You lost your chance!”“She’s mine, Carver! She’s originally mine! She belongs to me and not to some devil like you!”“STOP IT! STOP FIGHTING!” I shouted but they wouldn't stop.I swallowed hard and looked around. That’s when I saw Klay’s ri
