Dusk has fallen, and Drew has yet to be back since he left in the morning.Clarissa sat on the terrace outside of her room on the second floor. She was gently touching her slightly protruding pregnant belly.“My sweet baby, don’t worry once you are born; mommy will love you with all she has. I will work harder to give you a better life. Please stay safe for mommy. I promise to love and care for you just like mom cared for me when I was born.My baby, if I have to take more than ten jobs to give you happiness, I will gladly do it.”Don’t forget grandma and granddad love you just as mommy loves; humm, they are just angry at mommy for now.Perhaps this child will be her only family since her mother disowns her even without saying it out; her refusal to talk to her for almost two months is the evidence.This child might be the only source of warmth she could have in life; she narrowed her eyes, and her mind wandered off.Drew stood at the entrance of the room. He has been standing there f
Just when will I have the opportunity to tell her how I felt?He stared at her for a very long time before falling asleep with her in his arms in the wee hour of the morning.Early in the morning, the room was filled with a faint glow of light because the curtain had not been drawn. Clarissa slowly opened her eyes, and just when she was ready to move her legs, she found out she could not move them.And then she finds herself completely confined by Drew!His strong arms were around her waist, and her legs were also firmly tangled with his legs.The sound of the man’s even breathing kept coming into her ears.She thought he left or went back to his room; she never imagined that Drew would come to sleep in her room and hug her to sleep.Clarissa tried to move her legs.She was so angry at her hormones that even thunder could not wake her up clearly in the night. Even when Drew confined her in his arms, she did not know, and she was even ashamed for herself because, looking at their posit
After the unpleasant breakfast, Clarissa sat in the living room reading a pregnancy book, but it was boring to her. Aunt Felicia had seized her phone, saying being on the phone every time is not good. The door bell suddenly rang.“Who could it be this morning?" Just as she was about to get to the door, Aunt Felicia asked her to sit down.Some minutes later, Aunt Felicia came in with a bouquet of flowers.Clarissa smiled when she saw the flower.“Aunt Felicia, the flower is beautiful. When are you going to introduce your man to us? We would like to meet him.”“Madam, the flower is not mine; it's yours." Clarissa gasped in surprise when she heard that the flower was for her. Coming back to her senses, she looked at the flower in Felicia’s hand and said with a chuckle, “Aunt Felicia, you are joking, right? I’m sure I have no admirers here since I hardly leave the villa in the first place. It must be a mistake.”The large bouquet of red roses was brought to her on the sofa. She collecte
Clarissa thought about it. She was not sure if she should go on a date with this man. His actions these days are becoming overly nice; she was really tempted to meet up with him on a date. However, her mind was conflicted; she really wanted to know what the man wanted. She went back inside the house. When she entered the house, she called out to Aut Felicia and Clarissa, I am in the living room. She walked over to the sitting room.“Aunt Felicia, can you advise me on what to do? Drew invited me to a lunch date. Do you think I should go and meet up with him?”Seeing her complicated and conflicted appearance, Felicia asks, “Clarissa, would you like to go? I think it’s good. You are both husband and wife, after all, so I would advise you to go on a lunch date with him. And besides, going out with him will not harm you, and I think having a good relationship with the father is good for the child." Felicia makes sure she stretches on the word child to get her to compromise.“Thank you, Aun
Trying to hide her fear and suspicion, Clarissa asked him to order chicken soup for her. Without much thought, Drew sent the menu through the restaurant menu tablet.“So what did you want to talk about?” Clarissa, who seems to be sitting on her nails, queried, even before their lunch could be served.“Oh! That is, um, I just wanted to apologize to you for everything that I have put you through. Um…… I mean, I’m sorry for everything that has happened between us in the past few months. Clarissa I understand that I’m such a jerk, you know, and especially for forcing myself on you and... Rissa baby, I know my actions have hurt you, but I honestly didn’t do those things on purpose; it wasn't my intention. Please, I’m sorry.”Drew, who has been doing the talking, paused a little when the person he was talking to had her head bent.Clarissa, who has her head bent, has so many questions running through her mind that she suddenly raised her head up to see if the man was sincere or not, but the
“Mrs. Walker, what happened to my first name? Please just call me Drew and drop all these formalities. I hope.”"Woops, my Uber driver is here so fast. Oh, I will say technology these days is the best. Bye Drew”Clarissa did not allow Drew to finish his statement before she cut him off. Once she finished showing off to Drew how fast technology has been these days, she opened the door and walked out before Drew could react to the sudden change of address from President Drew to Drew.Drew smiles broaden well. Clarissa stopped being formal, which means that was a good sign of their relationship.Drew went back to the company, while Clarissa went back to the villa.However, Drew couldn’t concentrate on his work, and he had to postpone his business meeting until the following day.Meanwhile, when Clarissa got to the villa, she edited a message and sent it to her mom, relating how her date went with Drew, but as usual, she did not get a single reply from her mom. Once night came, she went
Warren, who already has a gossipy spirit, quickly turned back and sat on the chair opposite his boss.“President Drew, so tell me what happened yesterday between you and madam?”Drew, who had wanted to tell Warren about what happened yesterday, hesitated for a while when he saw how eager Warren was. Drew analyzed Warren.Aware of Drew's scrutiny, Warren understood that if he probes further, Drew, who has wanted to tell him what happened, will kick him out of his office without giving him the details, so he thought he should behave himself for now and not anger the President so that he can tell him the details.“Warren Don’t you dare tell Master Walker about what I’m about to tell you. Is that clear?” Drew, who has already explored Warren’s mind and knows that it is filled with nothing but how to relay whatever he says to Sylvester,.“I know you will read my mind; let me act naturally and ask questions when I’m supposed to,” Warren said, plastering a smile on his face.“President Drew,
“Why not look for someone to vent to instead of punishing yourself like this?” Her heart ached while she said that no woman would want her husband to sleep with another woman.Drew did not say anything more; he went straight into the bathroom.Clarissa sat down at the edge of the bed while thinking.What is he trying to do? I thought he wanted to kiss me then, but he just turned around and left. These days, he has held me to sleep, touched my exposed belly, kissed me in the restaurant yesterday, and seeing me stark naked today after being drugged with an aphrodisiac, he just let me go,” she felt bad for him.He has changed a lot. She knows he can’t resist her.He had endured for too long; she kept thinking about what to do.Drew had been under the running water for over thirty minutes. The sound of running water could still be heard from the bathroom.Clarissa felt a pang of pain in her heart when she kept hearing the sound of running water. He was going to fall sick if he stayed long
