"Hi," she greeted us then looked for someone and when he found Asher she smiled at him. I couldn't help but notice his blush.
"Hi Ash, come," I called to Ashley and pulled her closer to my side. I can say that after what happened, I still think of her as my family. He approached Hera and played with Uly.
"Hi, little Eugene, how cute you are." She touched the baby's cheek. "Psst," she called to Asher who looked at her. Ashley pouted at the baby. But Asher didn't answer so Ashley raised an eyebrow.
Ashley comes more closer to me and whispered something. "I slept with him and pretended I was drunk, but fuck, he just covered me with a blanket and stared at me the whole night.
TSS!"
I laughed as hard as I can and they all looked at me with astonishment so I signed peace. I simply look at Asher scratching his head and he obviously knows what Ashley whispered to me.
Everyone was very happy with the baby until the visiting hours ended and the guests
"What do you have that I don't have? Hailey Amaranth ex-Lewis, and fake Taylor, and the heart remains Lewis." My heartbeat quickened. I don't know if it's because of anger, embarrassment, or whatever."Did you just come with me to insult me? Do you want a fight? I can give it to you." She laughed as she touched me, but I slapped her hand."Don't fool me, Ley, I know you. Remember I'm your best friend. I can still see that my husband is still in your heart.""Eat your husband, I don't care." I would have turned my back on her when she suddenly speaks."Is Ulysses the son of ---""Kyla." Kyla hadn't finished what she was going to say when Hunter suddenly showed up. I looked at Kyla who was smiling and obviously hiding something."What do you want to say Ky?" I ask."BOOM!" she just answered then Hunter approached us. "I was looking for Ley, baby, you want to talk to her, right?" But Hunter did not answer and he only looks at me.
"Sorry Eu." I felt him hug me tightly."Ley." I looked up at Eugene who is now stroking my hair. He stared at me and drew a deep sigh. "Let's try it." I frowned at what he said.What did he mean?"What do you mean?" I ask him confusing."Make love with me."Make love?Eugene and I have been married for a year but still, nothing is happening to us."Eu," He kissed me passionately. Slow and full of caution. At first, I did not respond but when I feel his tongue knocking at my lips, I kissed him back.Dax held my face while I clung to his neck.Am I ready?There is nothing wrong with trying. He's still my husband so what's wrong if I let myself go to him.Eugene carried me like a newlywed and slowly put me to our bed. He positioned on my top and there we continued kissing while cuddling. He slowly removes my dress until only my underwear is left."Perfect," he whispered and he cupped my bra while kissin
Eu does everything for me and Uly. He's a protective father and a responsible husband. He manages his business well without neglecting his responsibility to us. So far so good and I can say that we already started a new life.Time flew so fast and Uly is now four years old.Asher and Ashley are already married.William and Hera are engaged.I still meet Hunter and Kyla and I will admit that even though a lot has happened in Eugene and I's life I still can't help but think of Hunter.I bring Uly to the mall and are currently looking for some stock for the house. I plan to cook Eugene's favorite food because it's the weekend."Mommy, can you buy this one for me?" I looked at my son holding almond chocolate."Nah!" I replied then took something."Please, mommy." He was scratching my dress so I lowered my hand and looked at him. I also know that he will not stop asking me because he is a naughty child like his aunt Hera."Fi
"Tell me the truth Vince and stop playing with me," I said angrily to him but in a lower voice."I respected and love you despite what you did to me, Ley, so if you and Eugene have a secret, just keep it to yourself for the peace of those you protected because I have no plans to interfere in your life," he said"Vince,""I still love you and that won't change and nothing can change then, so I won't let anyone ruin you or even your son.""What do you mean?""Stay with your son, and send my regards to your husband," he said and turned as he walked away."Mommy, come on." When I looked at Uly he was already holding my hand. I hugged him and looked away at Vince.Ulysses and I had already walked to pay and even in the car I couldn't get Vince out of my mind. I think my body seems to have its own brain because even though I wasn't on my own while driving, we still got home safely.When I entered the gate, the maid met me to pick up what
"Oh, you're here too, Ley." I fix myself when I saw Hunter and greeted him."Hi, I visited dad but he's still in the meeting so the secretary let me wait for him here," I answered."Ok, he will be a little late because there are investors from Canada and Japan who just now arrived to look for Asher's hospital to be built," he said then offered me a drink. "Do you want drinks?""Nah, I'm good thanks. By the way, why aren't you included in the meeting?" I ask."It's a medical business, out of my field so Asher is there." I nodded at his answer."Problem?" he asked me while setting the opposite table."Huh?""You look stressed seems you have a problem, wanna share it with me?" Am I that obvious?"Nothing, just Eugene and I have a little misunderstanding.""It will be ok," I was surprised when Hunter grabbed my hand which sent electricity all over my body so I immediately pulled it away. "Sorry," he apologized."Maybe
"I'm asking you, Eu, did you met with Kyla secretly?""No." He looked at me straight so I rested deeply."I believe you," I said and think that Hunter was lying."You should," he replied when his cellphone suddenly beeped. He read the message and then he went to the closet and got dressed."Are you leaving?" I asked when I noticed that he changed."I'll be right back.""But-----" Eugene ignored me and continued to walk out the door.Curiosity arises from me who texted him and why he goes.Who is that and why he's in hurry?I changed my dress and immediately went down to follow Eugene. I waited for him to leave first because I didn't want him to see me following him.I opened my Viber and checked Eugene's location. While on my way he's radar stopped at Almias Restaurant. So, I went straight there. In the distance, I saw Eu's car. I parked my car a little farther from his. But I didn't have to go down because from h
"Ley, please be honest with me. Tell me, did I?" I don't want to answer Eugene's question. But I don't want to lie with him as well."No,""Until now, for all what I did, for how many times we did those things as a couple?""It's called lust. It's my obligation as a wife that's why I allow those to happen." I heard him sigh and stare at me."I'm sorry if I am not enough as your husband. I just did what I think is right for us." I got off the bed and approached him."Tell me what you and Kyla talked about." I see him smirked then stood up and go the window."I can't tell you. But I hoped you trust me that everything I do is for you and Uly. He's mine so I won't let anyone take him away from me.""We know the truth," I interjected."Stop using that word. I won't let anyone even you, took my son from me. I will face everything if someone will try to take my son from me even if it's cost my life." Then he turned to me."Euge
Eugene packed his things.He will live in his ancestor's house while the annulment is in process."Dada, you come to visit us often?" My son is too young. But I think he understands what's going on that his dada is leaving. But we also did not say the real reason.We just said that his dada will work somewhere else. That is why he move closer to work."Of course, I am. Dada will move closer to work, but I am still your dada.""I'm gonna miss you dada.""I'm gonna miss you more." Then they hugged each other tightly. "Promise me you won't give mommy a headache and be a good boy always, ok?" Eugene said."Yes, dada.""On Sunday, dada will come home and we will buy your Optimus Prime. Is that ok?""Yehey! I love you dada.""I love you more baby." Eugene hugs Uly tight then he approached his car."Be careful, Eu," I said and hugged him while he was still lifting Uly."You too. Take care of yourself always
I am setting on the bed that witnessed how Ulysses made. The resort of the Taylor. What it was five years ago when I saw it is still the same today and nothing has changed. This resort was handed over by Vince to Ulysses. This is where the new phase of my life began. In this bed, Ulysses was formed and because of that Eugene became my husband and became the father of my son. I have experienced being a mother and wife because of this bed. Sometimes, I ask myself. Is there something wrong with me? Is there something wrong with my personality? There are those who love me but nothing lasts. Someone loved me but I didn't love. There is who stand by me but still my fault we separated. I love someone very much but he can't love me. And when he loved me, I gave up. Am I wrong or is fate played us? "Hey, you remember the happiness you feel once in that bed. Maybe you forgot we're going to the cemetery." I
"Hi." I sat across from Hunter. "I'm sorry, just now I have time to visit you again, how are you?" I ask then give him the fruit I was carrying."I'm good," he replied. "You?""Same, little busy for the opening of the business.""Sorry, I wasn't there, that work was supposed to be mine.""It's ok,"Hunter has been jailed for three months now. No case has been filed against him because it is clear that his wife cheated on him. But he did not post bail and he said he wanted to be imprisoned until the due so that even here he could pay for what he did to the baby."How's life?" he asked."Here, looking for a new husband, again." I laughed while saying. "Eugene and I's annulment has been in process. It takes too long because Eugene follows the rules." I saw him frown on his forehead."Are you serious?" he asked."In where?""That you're searching for a new husband?" I laughed at what he said."Nah, I'm just kid
"It's not your fault Ky, I have a mistake also. So I have to ask forgiveness also from you.""Thank you, Ley, and you don't need to ask forgiveness.""Can you promise me you get well, so we can get back together?""I don't want to live, Ley, it doesn't matter if I fight. My baby is gone and Vince is gone.""Don't say that, Ky.""Can I ask you something,""Tell me.""Take care of Hunter and tell him that I am not mad at him. I am the one to blame for all this happened, to us, and hopefully, he will forgive me for what I did to him.""I will, promise.""There's another one." She smiled at me full of sadness. "Can I see Ulysses?" I nod at her."Yes, I'll take him to you." I caressed her face then stood up. "Wait for us and I'll take Ulysses to you now," I said then left the room.I don't want to prolong Ulysses and Kyla's meeting. I don't want to think about it but from what I can see in Kyla's appearance it l
It's been a week since Ulysses had the operation and Vince has also been buried.We are all excited and hope that it will be successful and hope that my son is really ok. Ever since Vince visited Ulysses, my son keeps on asking if Vince will visit him. We can't tell him the truth now so we just said that Vince can't visit yet but his father will come to support him.I also confessed to my family the truth.Understanding, that's how they made me feel. Even Eugene's family is the same and they say that the truth can't change the way they look at Ulysses. Vince's father has known everything for a long time but he promised me that he would not disturb my son. He was happy to know that I was no longer angry with his son.The doctor was already removing Ulysses's bandage and we were all waiting for the result.Ulysses slowly opened his eyes while blinking then smiled."Dada," he called as he looked at Eugene."Mommy," Then look at me.
"Ley," Eugene calls softly helping me to stand up."WHY!" Hunter continued to shout.I left Eugene then went to Hunter."Enough, Hunter," I said and hug him. He didn't move and just keeps on crying while kneeling. "Please, Hunter, stop this." My hands moved towards Hunter's face then turned it towards me. "Stop." I cried too."Why, Ley? Why did this happen, is this compensation for all my sins against you." I shuddered as I watched him crying. I can't handle the pain I felt now, this is more painful than seeing him kneeling to me before and begging me to take back my heart."Fate did this to us, and we are all victims." I still can't deny that I still love him and it hurts me to see him struggle."Forgive Ley for everything I did to you and our son. Forgive me." I hugged him and I felt him hug me back. This is the hug of the two people who are still in love but can't be together.I've waited for this hug with love from him for a long ti
"Hunter, please if you really love me, stop this. I know our baby is happy now in Heaven. Please don't let Kyla's baby through what our baby and I went through. Please, our baby will be sad," I said while caressing his cheek.I don't know if my persuasion was effective but I couldn't think of any other way to convince Hunter. Even though I hate Kyla still I want her alive, I will not let Hunter become a criminal also.Everyone can call me a martyr but I still love him despite everything that happens."Is this karma Ley? Is it karma to me for what I did to my baby?" he asked then grabbed me to hug. I can't afford to see him crying, I am more hurting seeing him like this mourning."No, believe me, no," I said while caressing his head and he continues to cry even more.Hunter means everything to me back then. And I can't deny the fact that until now I still love him more than anything. I did wished once that he is the one who did that to me. I did wis
I was nervous when I see her smile and Immediately thought that something was wrong because of the nurse's actions. I would have liked to go back inside but what about my son's prescription.Prescription?The hospital never let us bought any medicine because when they didn't have stock they themselves used to buy it for us. Ulysses is VIP so all his needs are the hospital's obligations.I think, there is something wrong.I was about to go back inside when suddenly someone covered my nose. I fought back for a while but immediately lost consciousness.What the hell is happening?I WOKE UP lying in bed and had a bad headache."Argh!" I shook my head and look around.I immediately got up when I remembered what had happened in the parking lot. I rolled my eyes and noticed that I was in a room."It's good that you're awake, Ley, your guests have been waiting downstairs." I turned my back and I didn't expect to see him.
= HAILEY's POV ="Ley." I ignored Eugene and focus on Ulysses. I am disappointed and wanted to cry.I don't know how to react and I want to know all the truth. Even though they didn't tell me what's happening I have already a conclusion.I want to fight Eugene but I don't want to wake up my son who is fast asleep because of the medicine. After what happened earlier I am not a fool to not understand everything.When I make sure that Ulysses is in deep sleep I face Eugene."Tell me what's going on?""Ley,""Tell me, is it Vince?""Ley,""Tell me!" I want to shout and slap him but I remain calm."Yes," I sat on the couch and cried. I don't know what I am going to feel now. I feel betrayed, I feel dirty or blessed because I have Ulysses. I don't know, I have mixed emotions."I didn't tell you the truth Ley because I was afraid you might take Ulysses away from me. I'm afraid that you might introduce him to Vince
= VINCE's POV =I love Ley, and I only wished to spend one night with her. I accept that what I did to her is a mistake. But I do not regret it because I was given the opportunity to be with her.I didn't expect also that what happened that night bears a fruit.I know that she and Eugene are the reason for my imprisoned. But I have no plans to retaliate against them. I accepted it as the payment for what I did to Ley. I was in jail when I found out that Ley was pregnant and Eugene is the father. But I knew in myself that I am the father of the child she was carrying.I knew Ley from high school. She was always proud that she is not in favor of pre-marital sex, one of the things I admired about her. No man has been involved with Ley yet claims that he touched Ley even her past time boyfriends. So I know that apart from Hunter there is no other man in Ley's life besides me at that time.I also don't believe that Eugene is the child's father because I
