Amber walks down the passage heading to office and Lacy approached her."Can't I stay away from you?" Amber complains loudly as Lacy comes forward."Not when you are in this branch" Lacy smirks mockingly walking beside Amber."What's up?" Amber asks."Have you eaten?" Lacy asks."I ran out of luck for food today" Amber rolled her eyes sadly."I'll ask my secretary to bring my meal over to you" Lacy said lovingly."What about you?" Amber asks in confusion." I will join the CEO on his international conference meeting, that way my meals are covered" Lacy explains briefly and Amber nods."Thanks"."Do you by chance have feelings for the CEO?" Amber asks anxiously."I dare not hope on that, we're just business friends" Amber smiles."By the way, I dropped some files in your office" Lacy adds in."I reject doing your photocopies if this is some kind of a bribe" Amber rattles out and Lacy laughs off."That's not it. The CEO gives you the permission to work with the interns thus I sent some
"You left your work because of your boss" Amber mocks."You got dumped and started up a romantic relationship with your ex's brother" Mia retaliates, they turn to each other."We are both losers" they said mockingly in unison."At least you and Lucas will be cool now" Amber reminds."What do you do now? Should I open vacancy in Chase bank for you?" Amber asks with sharp gaze."Just tell me you want Liam's attention." Mia said bluntly in a scornful tone and Amber smirked."How about you? Have you spoken to Lucas?" Amber raised a brow."His grandma is sick, he traveled out of state" Mia pauses."I wonder if I'm as important to him as his grandma" Mia muttered sadly as if she's thinking deeply."Mia --- I think we have one thing in common" Amber said."What?" Mia asks slyly."Love issue" Amber pauses."Our relationships and not worth love stories" Amber adds in mockingly."Sorry Sis but you got the problem not me" Mia said sarcastically."What do you mean?"

Liam asks anxiously and Park nods."Go on" Liam said gently rubbing his chin."They go on dates together and catch fun, James often visit Amber in her apartment" Park said cautiously not to trigger Liam's boiling anger."In her apartment? He still so inhumane" Liam snorts and face Park."What do they do when James visit?" Liam asks nervously, he was eager to know."Why do you want to know?" Park asks mockingly."I don't want my younger brother to get cheated" Liam said bluntly blinking his eyes."Well, it's their privacy but ---" Park begins but stop halfway."But what?" Liam asks anxiously, he couldn't wait any longer to hear more."I saw James purcha

Mia is here" Ambassador Summer announces as she approach Mia."Good day, I got the update" Mia said."Yeah. You will be modelling for the Kellogg's snack industry" Ambassador Summer informs lovingly."When do I start?"

AUTHOR QUOTE:Life is too short for bad vibes. Always be happy.In fuze box nightclub the crazy loud music plays while the crowd dance to the beat, drink drunkenly and other party activities, right in the VIP section James sit with some group of friends on the armchairs and in front of them were tumblers and liquors, they discuss loudly due to the music which in it's peak and flirt with available prostitutes beside them."Take it easy man, what's up with you?" one of James club friend popularly called Lance asks as he whips the alcohol stain on his mouth."Since you know me, has any girl ever turn me down?" James asks drunkenly."That girl must be blind" a prostitute replied impatiently in a flirtatious tone."With your family background and looks, every lady dream to have you" Lance said and James impatiently gulp the alcohol."Then why did she dump me? Why?" James asks in provocation."Take it easy man, there are plenty of ladies" Lance said."Plenty? I just want one. Why can't I ha
Logan was disturbed all through my pregnancy until it was time for delivery.I was rushed to the hospital by my family and as funny as our relationship was, all my friends were impatiently waiting at the emergency ward for an update.I was laid up on the bed and asked to spread my leg wide open. Logan had his reason and asked that I was being attended to by a female doctor.I know it’s unpredictable but I would have been ashamed to do as instructed if it were a male doctor.The whole series went smoothly. I felt pain at every surge I did in order to push my baby out.“The head is out!” One of the nurses notified and it gingered the doctor, they started urging me to push which I did seriously.It was as if a pop was hanging, I wanted to let it all out. Beads of sweat covered my forehead as I fought the tough fight of motherhood.An hour later, I woke up to the cry of a baby. The nurse approached me with the baby that had already been cleaned by methylated spirits, he was wrapped in t
“Yay!” We clinked the glass together as cheers filtered in the air.“So, Mia, you said you are pregnant?” I asked, staring at her intently.“Right. It was meant to be a secret! Lucas.” She lovingly scolded Lucas and we laughed.“Oh don’t beat him, it's good news.” Bella nodded and I agreed with her.“Well, I wanted you to give birth first though so our children would have a certain age gap to date.” Mia wiggled her brow, she had always been sarcastic.“You are silly.” I laughed heartily. “Grow up Mia, you ain’t getting younger.” I teased her.“She never changes and I love her.” Surprisingly, Isabella sided with her.Suddenly, we realize that we have been focusing on just ourselves and had forgotten about our husbands and Reina thus we stopped, staring at them.”Well, the stage has been changed.” We started eating as if we didn’t know what we did.“I enjoy your company, honestly.” Reina broke the silence. “Liam, can you keep bringing me to them? I would love to be part of their zone.”
The kind of joy I got in my heart was irreplaceable especially after the result of my pregnancy and the chase of Chi-saun. Finally, I was given the entire attention.I felt so bad for her though. After all the pride and confidence she had placed on the baby, it was all for loss.It has been a month yet no one has forgotten about such painful experiences and news. Chi-saun already left the mansion after her divorce thus I was finally Logan’s only wife which gave me nothing but happiness.I have never loved sharing my favorite things.I sluggishly walked into the dinning room for breakfast and met my mother-in-law and Ruby. They were setting the dishes and arranging the plates.“Good morning, Miss. Amber.” Ruby smiled as she went back into the kitchen.“You are awake.” My mother-in-law said suddenly and I stopped, facing her.It was as if I had heard something wrongly. I cleaned my ear and looked at her.“How was your night?” She made a comeback, keeping a bright smile.I was marveled a
It wasn’t like I was anxious about her health or something but I wanted to reach the end of the deal as I had promised her father, the deal that I showered love to his daughter until she delivers.My mother and mother-in-law, including Amber, followed me to the hospital to visit Chi-saun. Since last night, she has been in the ER and none of the doctors were out.My mother couldn’t stop panicking and biting her fingers, she had developed a fondness for Chi-saun that couldn’t be forgotten overnight.I had business calls coming in but I reluctantly ignored them to finalize with the matter at hand.“How did this happen?” I heard Amber asking my mother out of concern but my mother gave her a cold shoulder.“We were all at home when she started crying out, she said her abdomen was in serious pain.” My mother-in-law explained sadly and Amber shook her head sadly.“Abdomen pain during pregnancy? That’s painful.” Amber mumbled.After a few hours of waiting in the waiting area, a doctor approac
The following morning, my mother had already prepared my breakfast and the same goes for Chi-saun. It was as if the both mothers were trying to make their desired daughter happy and also compete between themselves.“Mum, I can do all these myself.” I frowned as I wolfed the noodles she made that morning, it wasn’t even up to my satisfaction. It was as if there were more worms dining with me at each bite.I never knew a four to five month pregnancy would turn one into a food hunter. I salivated and faced Ruby.“Can you make me another plate?” I squeezed out a smile with my eyes urging her.Ruby made the first step, approaching the kitchen when my mother-in-law stopped her.“Stop right there. Have you forgotten what Chi-saun sent you?” She fired in annoyance.“Ma’am?” Ruby looked clueless.“I asked you to bring the duvet from my room, I feel cold.” Chi-saun said, fringing a baby-ish low voice and I snorted.“I can make some myself.” I stood up from the chair and went over to the kitchen
Three months later, Isabella successfully married her heartthrob, James and they moved into the mansion that was bought by Mr. Chase Jamie.Everyone was slowly adapting to the nature of change but Logan’s family won’t just accept things the way they came.As my baby bump came up, so did Chi-saun though her laziness ranked more than mine as she was always sending maids errands every second. In a week, we have employed three batches of maids because none of them could stand the pressure coming from her.“Amber, are you alright?” My mother approached me and supported me as I came down the stairs.Liam reluctantly gave me some months off which gave me no room for escaping from the troubles at home.“I’m fine. Just a bit thirsty.” I sighed heavily as I gradually sat on the armchair.“Let me get water for you.” She quickly rushed to the kitchen before I could stop her.“This woman…” I rubbed my forehead and relaxed on the armchair.Soon, Chi-saun came downstairs with my mother-in-law. As us
I guessed she must have felt uncomfortable visiting the same family which she thought would be her final destination in the marital aspect.We all sat down in the living room, staring at each other; patiently waiting for the elders to make the first move.“Mum…” James nudged my mother who was still engrossed in Amber's presence, I guess she was already wishing it was us - coming to see them to become a married couple.“Madam Smith.” My mother’s voice finally came up.“My son told me about the beautiful flower he spotted in your garden.” She continued and my father cleared his throat.“That’s my line.” He said sarcastically and we all laughed.“Anyway, my son is interested in your daughter and I assume you know what that means?” My mother raised a brow and Amber’s mother nodded.“Yes. I know James is a good man.” She sighed. “As long as he can take care of my daughter and make her happy, I have no problem.” She said conclusively.“Be rest assured, mother.” James was the most shy and im
Unlike how I presumed the date to be like, it was the complete opposite. Reina and Logan made sure Liam and I were comfortable. We discussed something farther away from our lives and by the time we realized it, none of us were willing to discuss our personal life.It was great that I wished time never flew as it did. The meal and the time spent with Liam and Reina was worth it.Who would have thought that Liam will settle with a woman like her. Cheerful, compassionate, and jovial. There was no boring moment with her as we were talking every second.Yeah, I felt a little thrown at the edge by the way Liam lauded her but fortunately, there was Logan who was beside me; caressing and making sure I didn’t feel empty or jealous.There was nothing to feel jealous about.I held Logan’s arm and leaned on his chest as we walked into the main living room. It was already late and we weren’t planning on seeing anyone but that was where I got the whole thing wrong.“Amber.” My mother called out to
I walked into the room and placed my hand on my stomach. The doctor's words were still surprising me.“I’m pregnant.” I scoffed, shaking my head in disbelief. I wasn’t expecting such news not now and never.Thinking back to the previous, I wasn’t expecting my mother to come today since I just heard the news. There would be a lot of pressure with my mother-in-law and mother on one roof and I must be prepared for some actions.I know my mother so well and she was not the type that visits without a heads up, I think she already knows that something is going on and I don’t want her to get on the bad side of Logan.Suddenly, there was a knock on my door and it pulled open. I turned around and it was my mother, I swallowed and kept on a strong facade.“Mom.” She approached me, squeezing out a bright smile with all her wrinkles folding up.It dawned on me that my mother was getting old.“What are you doing here?” I asked, she grabbed my hands and cupped them into hers.“I have heard everyth
