Carmen had a sleepless night, and the moment the sunlight beamed into her room that morning, she was already awake.The light glowing from her widow didn't draw her focus away from her ceiling.Carmen kept staring up with emptiness in her eyes until she heard a knock on her door.“Miss, your grandfather asked you to join him for breakfast.” A gentle lady’s voice echoed from outside the room.Carmen finally blink her eyelids after stiffly staring for minutes. She then took her sight away from the ceiling and focused it on the spared pillow on her bed before letting out a pitiful sigh.“Grandpa is such an early bird,” Carmen mumbled.She gazed towards the door when she heard the second knock.“Sofia, tell grandi that I will be out soon,” Carmen said as she sat up in bed.&

Carmen stood still for a minute plus with her fingers gently pinching her dress. With all the complex emotions running through her, she didn't know how to react, so she stood numb while staring at Liam and Ali.The coldness in her so-called best friend’s eyes made Carmen’s heart ache. She remained stiff for a few more seconds before taking two steps backward.‘You may have my last name, but you don't bear the willpower of the Smith family!’Carmen stopped when her father's words crossed her mind. Then she clutched her fist as she walked towards Ali and Liam.“Carmen!” Ali cheerfully shouted.She then turned to Liam with a bright smile on her face.“See. I told you that she will come.” Ali said.Liam tightly held onto the spoon with his head bent. In that instant, he didn't know where the intense sense of guilt came from, and yet he still felt remorseful.“What is

Liam's face slightly lit up when he saw Carmen coming out of the restaurant. But when she stared at him, and he saw the hostility in her gaze, the bit of sparkle in his eyes faded.“Carmen, let's talk please!” Liam called out when he saw her walking towards her car.However, Carmen didn't stop. Instead, she increased her speed, causing Liam to chase after her.Carmen reached her vehicle, and as she was about to open the door, Liam gently grabbed her wrist and turned her towards him.Carmen scowled at Liam as she opened her right hand, then vigorously hit it against his left cheek.Liam then squeezed his eyes shut as he pressed his lips tightly together to keep himself calm. Then he opened his eyes and gazed at Carmen in shock.“Fine. Do you want to hit me more? Go ahead and do it. But after you are done, let's talk.” Liam softly said.Carmen felt flushed even though it was a windy morning, she was q

The moment Carmen walked into the house, the expression on her face was a clear indication that she was hurting.“Kiddo, what's the matter?” Mr. Wilson asked.Carmen stared at her grandfather seated on the couch, and something about his calmness made her extremely mad.“How long have you known?!” Carmen asked while striving to hold back her anger.“What are you talking about, Carm?” Mr. Smith inquired.Carmen took a few more steps into the living room. Then she stopped when she was in the middle of the room and the center of everyone’s attention.“When did you all know that Liam was using me!” Carmen uttered with intense rage in her tone.No one spoke for several seconds as they all waited for the next person to break the silence.“You all had so much to say, and now I can't get a single word from you guys!” Carmen roared, and yet they could hear the pain in her voice.“Kiddo, we did it for your good. It was to teach you a li

Mr. Smith walked into the dining room in his pajamas. He then gazed at his wife and his father-in-law seated at the table before realizing that something was owed.“Where is Carmen?” Roman asked.Mr. Wilson gently laid down his newspaper and focused his attention on his son-in-law. Then he let out a sigh.“What is it?” Roman asked, feeling a bit worried now.“She left early this morning for work.” Mr. Wilson mumbled.His words felt a bit strange to him since he was still in shock about Carmen’s behavior.“Do you think we push her too much? I mean, she missed breakfast, and these are all her favorite dishes.” Mr. Smith mumbled as he took a seat.“Let's hope that she doesn't lose herself in all of this mess.” Mrs. Smith angrily said.She stood up to serve her husband tea and when their eyes met, she could see a bit of concern and remorse in his.“Carm

Terry came back into Carmen's office an hour later, carrying so many papers in his hands that Carmen found it difficult to see his head.“These are what you requested,” Terry said as he gently rested the folders on the desk.Carmen leaned in her seat while staring at the papers in shock.‘Dad must be insane. He knew about the Davis family deception and yet he was still willingly funding them?’ Carmen thought in dismay.Terry remained silent as he watched her wonder in her thoughts. But after three minutes had passed without Carmen recognizing his presence, he knew that he had to say something.“Do you need anything else, boss?” Terry asked.Carmen abandoned her thoughts and gaze at him without displaying any expression on her face. Then she reached out for one of the documents, briefly read through it, and shut it close before staring back at Terry.“Head over to the project management office and tell the manager for that department to termi

He was never mine Epilogue
When Freddie brought the car to a stop, he stared back, saw that Liam was sleeping, and faintly smiled as he thought, 'Sir just arrived in the country from a business trip, and yet he didn't hesitate when Miss Smith asked him to pick up Ethan. He really cares about young sir.'Realizing that the car wasn't moving, Liam raised his eyelids and asked, "We are here?""Yes, sir," Freddie said.Without uttering another word, Liam got down from the car and headed into the school building.When he got to Ethan's class and his teacher saw him, she smiled and said, "Ethan, your father is here."Keeping silent, Ethan walked over to Liam and mumbled, "Hello,"With a smile on his face, Liam sighed and thought, 'I have been in your life for one year now, and you won't call me 'father.' How long will it take to make you open up to me and believe that I'm not going to leave you.'Afterward, he extended his hand to Ethan, and not hesitating, he

The sound of her ringtone caused Carmen to set the pancake box on the kitchen counter. Then she picked up the phone, answered the call, and said, "Hey, mom." "Are you okay?" Mrs. Smith worriedly asked from the other end of the line. Confused by her mother's question, Carmen calmly uttered, "Why wouldn't I be?" "Well, Ummm… We were told that Ali was at the company yesterday?" "Seriously, you guys are still keeping tabs on me!" "No! Of course, not… Well, okay, yes we are. But not in the way that you think. Your dad and I were just checking in with Tracy this morning to find out how your first day went." At that moment, Carmen heard Mr. Smith say, "I told her not to call you!" Giggling faintly, the slight anger she felt slowly faded, and she said, "It's fine. We handle the situation pretty well, I think." "We?" Mrs. Smith asked, sounding curious. "Liam and I." "You guys are a

Keeping his eyes fixed on Carmen and Ethan as they stood by the car door, waiting on him, Liam walked over to them.When he was a step away from them, he stopped. Then Carmen met his eyes and said, "Ethan wanted us to wait out here for you.""Thank you, bud," Liam uttered, looking down at his son.Then he focused his gaze back at Carmen, and her face still bore no expression, making it hard for him to guess what she was thinking or how she felt.A few minutes later, as Freddie drove them out of the parking lot, the car was silent and continued to be even after he got on the main road.That bothered Ethan a lot, and he looked up at Liam on his left for a few seconds, and then looked to his right at Carmen before mumbling "I made a friend at school today.""Really! Bud, that's amazing!" Liam said with a look of pride in his eyes."Yeah, baby. What's your friend's name?" Carmen asked, unable to stop smiling.With an excited

The office was silent as Carmen stared coldly at Ali, wondering what she would say to her.At last, she lowered her brows and said, "We are not that close, so let's save the chit chat, and you can excuse yourself and leave.""Oh come on, Carm. Don't tell me you are still holding onto past grudges." Ali cunningly said, sluggishly relaxing back on the seat.Although Carmen didn't know where the conversation was heading, the last thing she wanted was to continue it.So she looked straight into Ali's eyes and said, "We are not doing this.""Doing what?" Ali asked with an innocent expression."I k

"Ding Dong!"Withdrawing his hand from on the doorbell, Liam waited patiently for a couple of seconds.Then he reached for the bell again, but the door suddenly opened, and Carmen stood in the doorway, staring at him."I hope I'm not too early," Liam mumbled, drawing his hand to his side."No. You are on time." Carmen said as she stepped aside for him to enter.After walking into the hallway, Liam gazed back and asked, "Where's Ethan?""He's having his breakfast," Carmen said, shutting the door.Afterward, she and Liam headed into the dining room together.When they arrived, and Liam sight rested on his son, his face lit up, and he excitedly uttered, "Hey bud. Ready for your first day of school?"Pouting, Ethan looked away from his cereal, stared at Carmen, and mumbled, "Mommy, why can't you be the one to take me to school.""We talked about this, honey. Your dad doesn't have much to do today, so he's

"Mommy," Ethan called out, looking at Carmen before staring down at her vibrating phone.Then he gently shook her arm until she finally raised her lashes and stared at him.Still feeling dizzy, a soft smile crept on her lips as she stared at her son's grey eyes and long lashes."What is it, baby?" Carmen whispered."Your phone is ringing," Ethan mumbled, drawing back on the bed as his mother sat up.It took her a second to fully awake. Then she stared down at her phone, picked it up, and answered the call."Good morning, mother," Carmen said, raffling Ethan's hair as he giggled faintly."I know it's early. But I and your father was discussing, and we thought since you have spent four months on that end, you are ready to take over the SM branch there." Mrs. Smith's voice echoed into her ear.Keeping silent, Carmen rested back on the headboard and thought, 'Four months? It's been that long already?'"What did Carm say?" Sh

For a while, Lina stared at her son, wondering if he was serious or not."I ready don't want to repeat what I said," Liam mumbled, gazing away from her. "You need to leave.""I am your mother," Lina whispered, clutching her fist."Remember the days in the darkroom, when I was screaming to be let out, I needed you to be my mother then or when Anthony and Levi left bruises on my skin and made me bleed, I wanted you to be my mother…""Liam…""There were so many instances that are needed you so desperately to realize that I am your son and put me first! But you didn't!""I'm…""I'm not going to be like you, mother. My child comes first even before the woman that brought me into this world, so you need to leave!"Fighting back tears, Carmen clapped her hand over her trembling lips as she stared at Liam with a touch of sadness in her eyes."I know my wrongs." Lina cried, not knowing what else to say.
He was never mine You've lost the right to see me as such
Staring coldly at his grandfather, Liam scowled before gazing at his mother and saying, "It was supposed to be just you!""Well, when father found out that I was seeing Ethan, he wanted to meet him too, so he flew over to me for us to come together," Lina said, smiling at her son.However, that didn't change Liam's expression, and his eyes got colder the more he stared at his grandfather."Are you going to let us in?" Anthony asked, scowling at his grandson.The atmosphere was intense, and Carmen felt it as she approached Liam at the door."Mr. Davis?" Carmen mumbled, losing control over her expression for a second and frowning.Then she quickly curved her lips into a smile and calmly called out, "Liam, are you not going to step back?"Taking in a deep breath, Liam continued to give his grandfather an icy stare for a few minutes before allowing himself to step away from the door.Everything in him hated to see Anthony and
