Helen's POV"So," Lucy said. "What are you going to do now?"I had just finished narrating how I had seen Fernando again that day, and how the sight of him had dampened my mood.Lucy was currently out of town, so I had to settle for calling her because I was desperate to share the latest development with her.And yes, I couldn't wait until she got back.The anxiety rippling through me in vicious waves was bound to make me crazy if I kept everything to myself until I could contact Lucy physically."I'm resigning, what else?" I scoffed. "I can't believe I've been surviving on his money indirectly after making a pact with myself that I was never gonna need his stupid money."The thought caused anger to boil within me as I tightened my grip on Ethan's small hand.We were currently at the mall shopping for groceries and a super mario game set for Ethan."That aunty Lulu?" He asked, eyes glistening with childlike innocence."Yes, baby," I found myself grinning from ear to ear, despite the i
Fernando's POVAs I knotted my tie, a knock came on the door."Is that you, Clara?" I asked, as if I was expecting someone else"It's Clara, sir," The person affirmed. "I wanted to tell you that breakfast is ready.""Okay, I will be done in a few." I said.Afterward, I heard the sound of her feet padding away.Clara was a middle-aged woman who I had hired as my private chef upon my arrival in Australia.The penthouse I had bought to reside in throughout my stay in Australia wasn't as large as my mansion in New York, although it was quite spacious.It had four bedrooms, six bathrooms, a living room, a private gym, a TV room, and three kitchens.I hadn't hired a maid or a butler because I wanted to navigate life on my own.Mother had spoiled me too much since I was born; I had been too accustomed to having people at my beck and call all the time.It was time I knew how to figure stuff out on my own.But because I didn't have the slightest idea of how cooking worked, I had hired Clara.F
Helen's POV"Don't get ahead of yourself. I'm here to tender my resignation letter." I said, outstretching the envelope containing the said letter.Fernando steered his gaze from my face to the letter, without collecting it, causing me to bristle with irritation."How's Ethan doing?" He suddenly asked, to which I scoffed."My son's life is none of your business, Fernando," I said. "I don't see why you're asking me that question like we're close friends when we're not." I spat, sidling past him to place the envelope on his desk."Helen, please let's sort this out. There's no use bearing grudges toward each other forever. Let's iron out this issue with maturity." His husky baritone came out in a rumble, as he grabbed my arm."Let go of me," I glared at him."Oh," He said, withdrawing his hand from my arm. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to do that."Ignoring his apology, I folded my arms across my chest and chortled mirthlessly."You want us to resolve this issue with maturity, huh?" I scoffed
Fernando's POVI watched the confusion on Helen's face morph into trepidation as she began shuddering, even though the heater was on.Had something happened to Ethan?I had heard her ask the person on the other end of the line that same question before panic engulfed her."Oh, God," She whispered, fear conspicuous in her voice. "I-I'll be there soon." She stammered, before ending the call."Is everything alright with Ethan?" I asked, and she darted me look that was set in between hesitation and fear.I knew then that my suspicions were right; something had happened to the boy."I-I need to go now," She uttered, and dashed out of my office. I trailed behind her, ignoring the way people stared at me."Stop following me. I can handle myself." She yelled, as we both walked past the doors of the company."You are clearly not in the right condition to drive. Please let me give you a ride." I offered, watching her unlock her car."I don't need your help," She snapped, as she got in. "Just l
Helen's POV"Oh, babe," Lucy cried as she pulled me into a bear hug. "I'm so glad that you're finally here."I could only weep harder as I buried my head into the crook of her shoulder.My entire body convulsed with dread as millions of scary thoughts raced through my mind, with the most prominent one being the thought of losing my son.I couldn't even imagine what I would do with myself if that happened.Although I hadn't expected him, Ethan had given my life a whole new meaning.He was the only reason I existed and got out of bed everyday.I was too far up in my head envisioning horrendous images that I didn't even realize that I had started hyperventilating until Lucy's voice rang in my ears."You're having a panic attack," She said, gripping my arms. "You have to stay strong for Ethan, alright?""Y-Yeah, I know," I nodded, still trembling slightly.Lucy regarded me for some minutes, worry tinged with pity evident in her eyes before looping her arms around me again."Let's go in,"
Helen's POV "The doctor will see you now," A smartly-dressed young nurse said and promptly took her leave before I could utter a word.My heart jubbered in my ribs in anxiety as I shakily stood up from the bench."You are worrying again," Lucy uttered, taking my hand into hers. "Everything will be fine, my friend. I'm sure of it."In response, I managed to dart her a lopsided smile as we walked down the hallway to the doctor's office.Two days had passed since Ethan was admitted in the hospital and diagnosed with aplastic anemia.And in those two days, I had only eaten and taken my bath once, and even the food had been a slice of bread and a bottle of soda, nothing more.In all honesty, Lucy had forced me to perform both tasks because she knew that if she hadn't, I would have remained glued to Ethan's bedside checking on him every second.I had also not gone to work in two days nor had I called in to take a sick leave.It was then I remembered that I had tendered my resignation lette
Fernando's POV "What's up, Roman?" I asked. "How are you doing? How's everything over there?""I'm alright and everything's good. How are you?" He inquired. "Have you managed to sort things out with my sister in law yet?"Scrubbing my face with my hand, I replied. "I'm just here. And by the way, she's not your sister in law anymore, Roman. Did you forget everything that happened?"My brother scoffed. "Of course, I didn't. I have an inkling that she will become my sister in law again very soon."I suppressed the urge to smile and only shook my head, while inwardly hoping that happened soon.But I knew the probability of a snail winning a marathon was far higher than Helen ever marrying me again.Hell, three days had passed since she resigned and rushed out of my office.Although I really wanted to visit Ethan at the hospital to at least know if what was wrong with him was serious, I held back from doing so, because I didn't want to worsen the already sour relationship between Helen an
Helen's POV The moment I saw Fernando, my eyes widened theatrically into the size of saucers.I opened my mouth to utter a word but nothing but air came out."Helen?" He uttered, shock tinging his voice.Fuck. I thought, as I fiddled with my fingers.Why the hell was the deity never on my side?Why did I have to encounter Fernando at the damn club?Now, he was definitely not going to back down until he found out what I truly needed money for.Earlier that day when I had gotten an email stating that I had gotten the female bartender job, I had been so elated and relieved that I wouldn't have to bump into Fernando and be asked baseless questions.I guess I had forgotten that nothing in my life never went the way I wanted it to.And based on the way he had spoken earlier that day, it seemed like he was beginning to have some suspicions about Ethan's paternity.Calmly, I wiped my hand on my apron and spread my lips in a smile."Good evening, sir. What would you like to order?" I asked ag

Helen’s POV "Oh my days, Helen," Anita squealed as the makeup artist put a finishing touch to my glammed up face. "You look so beautiful. Fernando is so gonna be smitten when he sees you. I mean more smitten cause let's face it, the man is so obsessed with you."I suppressed a smile as I stared at myself in the mirror, with a satisfied nod. "Thanks babe. Ethan's with his grandmother, right?""Yeah," She responded. "Do you want me to go get him?"The makeup had some exactly what I had instructed her to do; not a loud makeup but one that was minimal yet would turn heads when people saw me.Especially Fernando.Gosh, Fernando.Just thinking about him made my pussy wetter than a puddle.After sneaking back to my room last night, I couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard I tried and eventually had to stealthily trek to the bathroom to finger myself to an orgasm which wasn't as gratifying as the one Fernando usually have me.But at least it had kept me sated coupled with the thought that I

Helen’s POV I sighed for the umpteenth time that night as I burrowed into the blanket.Tonight was the night before my big day. And by big day, I meant my wedding day.Earlier that night, my bridal shower had taken place and it had been a really fun affair.However, two days had passed since I last saw Fernando and boy was I desperate to get dicked down by him.Due to some superstitions that Agnes had about it being bad luck for a bride and groom to be to see each other before their wedding, I had been forced away from him ever since we got to Paris two days ago.As if being apart from him wasn't bad enough, our rooms were located on different floors.With his being on the third floor and mine being on the first floor.It also didn't help that Agnes was making Roman's wife, who I fortunately got along with quite well, sleep in my room to prevent me from caving into the temptation of seeing my fiancé."Quit sighing and start sleeping, Helen," Anita yawned, from the king-size bed that
Helen’s POV"Thanks a lot for honoring my invitation," Fernando's mother uttered as the three of us stepped into opulent sitting room.Just like the one at our place, it looked luxurious yet minimalistic.The dark brown coupled with notes of a creamy pastel color complemented each other really well.A grand piano was at the right corner of the room, with a black and white picture of Fernando and Roman hung above itThe both of them looked really cute in the picture and couldn't be more than seven and ten years old respectively.Seeing the picture made me realize how our son had a striking resemblance to him, even though he still had most of my facial features.You could say Ethan was a perfect blend of Fernando and I.I wouldn't lie though, the whole atmosphere was so awkward as I shifted my weight from one feet to another."It's fine, ma'am," I managed to smile as Ethan tugged at my hand."Are you her friend now?" He whispered but in the quietness of the room, it was loud."Ethan, be
Helen’s POV "We were all created from dust and onto dust we all shall return," The priest preached as he poured a small amount of earth on the caskets.Today was my sperm donor and his wife's funeral.Yes, he still didn't deserve to be called my father even in death because he hadn't exactly behaved like one.He had been the most insufferable father to me.He had also been a deadbeat, a brute, a heartless scum and all sorts of things one could think of.While his wife had been a Jezebel's incarnate.Hell, I could still remember one occasion while I was in middle school.That day had been out results collection day and as usual, I had topped my grade.However, I had scored slightly above average in a zero unit course, and she had flung me into the bathtub and poured hot, scalding water on my legs to punish me for daring to "almost" fail the course.As if that wasn't enough, later that day when my sperm donor got back from work, he had also beaten me to the point of unconsciousness wit
Helen’s POV "Come here, baby," I muttered, whisking an angry Ethan away from sperm donor before he could lay his filthy hand on my son.It wasn't like I would stand by if that happened though, I was merely taking safety measures."I see you got a miniature bratty version of yourself, huh?" Janet spat, and that sparked a bomb in my head.I was done being calm and composed.I was done with both my sperm donor and his wife's entitled selves."Get out," I spat. "And you have just three seconds to do so, before I call security to fling you out, you shameless hags. You've never cared about my wellbeing once in your lives yet you have the fucking audacity to come here and try to make it seem like I'm the bad guy here, huh?""Mummy said a bad word," Ethan squeaked, but I ignored him.Now wasn't the time to play along to his call out."You heard her, right? Or are your ears just for decorating your head?" Fernando bellowed from beside me, as he intertwined our hands together."Even you Fernan
Helen’s POV "I could live here forever," I said, twirling on my heels, so that my eyes roamed across the vast grape and berry trees."Well, I hope you're ready to get bitten by ants then,," Fernando scoffed, grabbing my hand and twirling me around again, which made me giggle happily.Ah, life was so nice.There was no Bethany or Agnes disturbing my peace.After the whole thing was revealed, Lilian told me that Bethany had secretly moved to Malaysia via a cargo ship as she was so broke that she couldn't even afford an ordinary ship ticket.I guess karma really had a way of getting wrongdoers.Five months had passed since I moved back home and apart from the whole Bethany incident, everything had been moving smoothly.Roman and his woman had finally managed to work things out. According to Roman, they had even gotten married, some months ago in a low-key ceremony that was attended by just their friends.I had been quite saddened by the fact that I couldn't attend but seeing the loved u
Helen’s POV Today was finally d-day.As in the day that the real truth would come to light.The day I would know if Ethan was getting a step sibling.And I was more than anxious.Hell, I was on the verge of a great panic attack as I sat in front of my dresser mirror, my hands clammy with sweat and tremoring with trepidation.Fernando was currently in the bathroom while Ethan had gone to school.Roman had traveled back to Italy to work things out with his beloved, two days ago, which meant that I had no one to rant to.Despite the fact that Fernando had reassured me on multiple occasions that everything would turn out well, I just couldn't help the sinking feeling of uncertainty that had built a home in my heart.I hated the feeling so much.I hated feeling so lost and scared like a sick puppy.Fernando didn't say it but the way he stared at me with so much sadness in his eyes nowadays, made me feel so pathetic.But I guess I just couldn't help my feelings."Petal, are you coming with
