"So Ms Rivera, tell me more about yourself and your family." Celeste looked at the direction from where the words came from and found it was Benhan Lloyd. He was smiling at her while waiting for her answer. Suddenly the room filled with a chilling aura and Liam's whole body turned cold. He silently glared at his food without eating. Celeste didn’t notice the change in Liam's expression and smiled at Benham softly before answering.
"Well there's nothing special about me to mention. I'm just an ordinary person who moved here 8 months ago for work and I have no one to call a family." Celeste finished with a soft smile. Benham looked at her with a sympathetic smile which Celeste hated. Meanwhile Liam sat there feeling numb. He didn’t know why, when she said she had no one to call a family pained him. It made him feel suffocated.
Hearing Celeste's words both Liam and Shawn looked towards her direction. Liam had a very cold expression on his face as he moved from where he was previously standing, on the other hand Shawn looked at Celeste with questioning eyes."Uhmm I had gone out, so I thought of bringing dinner for us." Shawn said in a nervous tone while smiling awkwardly.Hearing the word 'us' Liam clenched his hands in a fist as he glared at the floor angrily."Oh that's so nice of you. Please come in. I was about to cook dinner." Celeste said with a smile while inviting Shawn in making Liam really angry. Liam turned around and threw Celeste an angry glare which Celeste d
The next day Celeste slowly opened her eyes and blinked a few times to get rid of the sleepiness."Good Morning!" Liam's deep and husky morning voice made her turn around instantly. She looked at his handsome face for a few moments. Smokey grey eyes, beautiful fair complexion, messy jet black hair, a perfect nose, high cheekbones with a sharp jaw. His every feature looked perfect to her eyes as if God had taken His sweet time to create him. His deep smokey grey eyes were completely focused on her with a smile. After a while, Celeste smiled back and snuggled into his chest before she greeted him back."Good morning." She whispered in her usual sweet voice which made Liam's heart feel warm. He slowly wrapped his arms around her and pu
Celeste came out of Gilbert, Shawn's father's cabin and heaved a sigh. For the past two months his situation was getting worse. His body stopped responding to the chemotherapy and slowly the doctors were losing hope. Celeste felt bad thinking about Shawn. He was really heartbroken. His mother already died when he was just a teenager and that time his father was also about to leave him very soon. He only had his father and an elder sister to call as family. If his father died then it would be only him and his sister.Celeste knew how it felt to lose a loved one. She had been there many times. Look at her now.She had no one to call her own. No one to call her family. So what? There were many people like her. If you haven’t met one ye
The bell of Celeste's apartment rang making both Celeste and Amelia pause from their conversation. Ronin, Amelia's baby was playing with Archie in the living room."It might be him. You wait here, I will check." Celeste said with a smile as she got up from her seat and made her way towards the door. Amelia sighed and closed her eyes. In just a span of a few hours her life had completely changed just like a few years ago. She sighed and looked at her baby playing with Celeste's dog. He looked exactly like his father. How would he react when he would find out all this? He herself was so confused with everything. How could Ashley, her own twin sister do this with her? For what? Fame, money and status? What about him? She had misunderstood him all those years. Would he forgive he
"What the fuck is going on here?" Rafael's loud angry and confused voice rang through the whole living room making everyone to come back into their senses. He looked in between the real and fake Amy continuously before his eyes stuck on the baby in Amelia's arms who already started crying because of his loud voice.Green eyes, blonde hair and a face exactly like him. How was it possible?"Who are you?" He asked directly looking at Amelia. Amelia stared back at him and gulped down the lump that had formed into her throat. Seeing him standing in front of her and staring at her with those green eyes brought back the old memories."Ameli
After walking through the long corridor Celeste finally reached the room which she had long used as hers. She slowly pushed open the door and made her way inside the room and pushed open the door. She slowly entered the room and closed the door behind her back.It wasn’t Liam's room but it was the room she stayed in when she had first come into this house two years ago to be Liam Rodriguez's bride.Contract bride to be exact. Celeste roamed her eyes through the familiar furniture and decoration.Two years ago she came here to be Liam's wife and this time she again came but as his ex wife.
"Where are we going?" Celeste asked Liam for the third time. But like the previous two times he still didn’t answer her."You will get to know soon." He simply said while focusing on driving the car. Celeste let out a sigh while turning her head towards the car window. She slowly leaned on it while looking outside towards the passing scenery.That morning Liam came knocking to her door and informed her to get ready with her things as they will be returning home. Celeste nodded as she thought they would be returning to Ontario but she was proved wrong when Liam started to drive the car. He didn’t take them towards the airport instead he started to drive towards some other direction which Celeste had yet to recognise.
Liam paced back and forth in front of the emergency room where they took Celeste. It's been more than 2 hours since he had brought her to the hospital. He was getting more and more worried by every passing minute. He just hoped nothing serious had happened to her.He didn’t understand why she would faint so suddenly. He ran his fingers through his hair to get rid of his restlessness. Only God knew how worried he was when she suddenly fainted. For a moment he thought he was going to lose her and this thought scared the shit out of him. Nothing should happen to her. He had so many things to tell her yet.Liam rubbed his face with his both palm and then took a deep breath to calm himself down. He should stop thinking rubbis
Three months later…Celeste slowly walked around in the living room with her huge baby bump. She was wearing only leggings and a crop top. Her whole body was aching as she tried to walk around slowly by holding Liam. Liam massaged her back to give her some comfort."Drink some juice, baby! Liam said while holding a can of juice in front of her mouth. Celeste took a little sip and then averted her mouth from it. That time they were all preparing to go to the hospital for Celeste's labor. She was already in pain. Clarissa and Andrew were with them at their home helping them to arrange a few things."Everything is done. The driver is waiting outsid
Two months later…It was Liam's birthday. Celeste had arranged a Family gathering for Liam's birthday since Liam didn’t like parties much. Everyone had arrived including Rafael, Amelia and Ronin. Sharon and Rihanna were also here. They were all enjoying themselves in the garden where a small family picnic was arranged."Amelia! Where's Ronin and Rafael?" Celeste asked while looking for Rafael and Ronin. Hearing her voice Amelia turned around and smiled."They are with Liam. I have arranged everything. Here's both colourgun." Amelia said gesturing towards the small area they had arranged to surprise Liam. For Liam's birthday, Celest
Celeste was engrossed in cooking in the kitchen while humming a Shania Twain's song when all of sudden two hands wrapped around her waist and hugged her from the behind. For a moment Celeste was startled but soon she relaxed when she recognised the familiar touch."Liam! What are you doing? Can't you see I'm cooking? Let me go." Celeste said while trying to free herself from Liam's grip."No. Let me just hold you for a second." Liam said while making his grip tight on her and burying his head in her neck."Ok. The breakfast is almost ready. I will just serve it in a while." Celeste said while tasting her porridge.
"At least now tell me where you are taking me?" Celeste asked again in an impatient voice making Liam chuckle. Hearing him chuckle at her misery Celeste couldn’t help but glare at him even though she couldn’t see because of the blindfold he had put on her eyes."Just ten more minutes, I promise." Liam said with a smile as he held her hands. The driver who was driving the car smiled at himself as he heard their conversation."You have said that from the past three hours." Celeste said in a childish voice as she slowly leaned towards Liam and he held her close to him."It's been only 20 minutes Celeste." Liam looked at her before he answered
"Well then listen. I didn’t want to marry you either but my grandma wanted me to. I didn't have any problem with the contract either as I understood you were also in the same situation as me. But after I married you everything slowly changed. Your family became my own and you too. I had no one to call mine from my childhood. I had no friends because my grandma was afraid people would hurt me and didn’t let me go out much. I had only my grandpa and grandma. When grandpa died, I still had my grandma. Then you came into my life and living with you made me fall in love with you. I fell in love with your gentleness, your kindness, your beautiful face, your smile and everything. I thought maybe you at least liked me. So I decided to plan a surprise for you and confess to you. But what had I got? A divorce paper! I didn’t know you would still hold into that contract but you weren’t wrong so I couldn’t blame you. You were cl
In Liam's room Celeste was looking through her luggage for her medicine. She was sure she had packed them all but for some unknown reason she couldn’t find those in her bags. She again carefully looked through her every single clothes but still nothing. She heaved a sigh and threw the clothes on the bed."Where have I put those?" She mumbled to herself."Are you looking for these?" A deep voice came from behind startling Celeste completely. Celeste put her hands on her chest before turning around to look at the person."Liam! You scared me. Wait! Is that my medicine? What are you doing with them? Give them back to me." Celeste exclaimed when she noticed the medicine she was looking for the past half an hour was on Liam's hand. For a moment Celeste became sc
"Celeste!" The moment Celeste came downstairs, she was engraved in a tight motherly hug from Clarissa."Oh honey, Congratulations! I can't explain how happy I'm for you. I didn’t know you two are back together already. I was praying to God to give my stupid son some sort of sanity but I didn’t know he would hear my prayer so past. I still can't believe it. You are pregnant. I'm going to be a grandma for a second time. God! I'm so happy.! Clarissa said while crying tears of joy. She broke the hug and looked at Celeste who had a soft smile on her face."Thank you mom!" She simply replied with a smile while giving Clarissa a kiss on her cheek. Clarissa smiled with a grin and took a step back to let Andrew, who was standing behind her to hug
Celeste slowly opened her eyes and rubbed them with her fingers to get rid of the sleepiness. She didn’t know why her body felt light and didn’t realise when she fell asleep in the car. When she woke up she invented herself in Liam's room in the mansion. Liam must have brought her there and put her there.Celeste heaved a sigh and felt her whole body aching. She didn’t realise how long she had been asleep. It must be because of the sedatives.After stretching her body to get rid of the pain Celeste decided to head directly towards the shower to freshen up and get rid of the hospital smell. After entering the washroom she decided to take a shower instead. She stood under the warm shower before closing her eyes. She let her body get drenched as slowly her mind started to wander around what had happened earlier.She was pregnant!This time for real.But why now? She didn’t want to get pregnant. She didn’t want to give birth to anyone
"What did you say?" Liam asked while taking a step back. His voice was calm. To calm to be exact. Celeste didn’t look at his instead she focused her gaze at the floor. Liam carefully looked at her, hoping he heard her wrong. But looking at her face, his heart clenched. He didn’t hear her wrong. Her face looked determined. She wasn’t joking. She actually dared to say that."You heard me, Liam. I want an abortion. I don't want to keep this child." Celeste said while getting up from where she was sitting. Her face was blank. Her voice was soft yet determined. Liam kept looking at her, trying to read her emotion. At that moment he wanted to tear open his head and see what was going inside her head. What was she thinking? The doctor who was standing at a corner till now, hurried made his way out of the room, giving the couple
