It was early in the morning, bright golden sunlight was peeking through the slightly ajar curtains. In the huge room, two bodies were entangled with each other, sleeping peacefully in each other's embrace. It was such a captivating scene!
After a while, Celeste opened her eyes slowly while trying to adjust her eyes to face the bright morning light. She tried to stretch her body to get rid of the
It was past eleven when they finally reached Elora, in front of her grandma's house. It took them one and half an hour to reach there. Liam parked the car in front of Marielle's house and before he could say anything Celeste was already out of the car. He saw her running straight into the house. He shook his head and got out of the car. They took the gifts he brought for Celeste's grandma and moved towards the entrance.
After eating lunch and chatting with her grandma for a while Celeste proposed to show Liam around before they leave for Toronto. Liam didn't object so they left immediately for sightseeing. They looked around Elora Gorge. It was beautiful. Unlike the summer which brings droves of tourists and sightseers, winter brings out another face of Elora Gorge. There weren't many people around so they had enjoyed the peace and tranquillity. Though Celeste preferred Elora in summer the most, winter was also her favourite. Everything was covered in thick white snow.
Celeste woke up in the morning in a hurry. It was her first day of work yet she had overslept. But it wasn't her fault entirely. Last night was intense and Liam didn't spare her till she was very tired. When she woke up in the morning the place beside her was already empty. Liam had already left and he didn't even bother to wake her up. She sighed and quickly got up before heading towards the washroom for a quick shower. After taking bath she came out of the washroom and quickly changed into a pair of shirts and pencil skirts. She didn't even have the time to have her breakfast as she left the house in a hurry. Liam had arranged a car and appointed a driver for her to travel.
The next whole week went in a blur for Celeste. She was so busy with her new work schedule that she didn't even get enough sleep for herself. She went out in the morning and then returned in the evening, took a nap, woke up and then had her dinner sometimes with Liam but other times alone. Liam was also really busy with his work. In the past week, they had been intimate only twice. Celeste knew her feelings for Liam were growing each day more and more. She couldn't help but fall for him more. He was such a gentle person that it made her fall deeper each passing day.
Looking through the bunch of clothes Celeste heaved a sigh. It was already afternoon and still, she couldn’t find anything suitable to wear to the party. She was not good at dressing up. She always wore whatever she found comfortable. But that day she couldn’t find anything she liked. To be honest she was a little bit concerned about what to wear and how to dress. She knew it was an important event for Liam and his business so she must dress properly. Biting one of her fingers she again started looking throughout her whole closet for a few minutes. All of sudden her eyes stuck on a Champagne colour dress. She pulled it out and stared at it for a while. It was made of net
As they reached where the group of women were, one of the women presents there smiled brightly at them before speaking in a cheerful voice. "Oh, Martina! You abandoned your friends, how rude!" She said with a dramatic expression, making everyone including Martina laugh.
As the clock kept going forward and soon the lunch break came. Celeste lazily got up from her seat and started gathering things in her purse to go to the nearest cafe to eat her lunch. She didn't eat much at breakfast so she was very hungry. When she came out of her office room she found Diana already standing at the entrance, waiting for her. Diana noticed Celeste's presence and waved at her happily. Celeste smiled before making her way towards her. "Where's Louisa?" Celeste asked as soon as she reached where Diana was waiting for her. Diana frowned before answering. "I don't know. I haven't seen her since morning." Diana replied while keeping her phone in her purse. Celeste frowned and nodded before they both started moving towards the exit. "
The next day Celeste woke up in the morning a bit late. She couldn’t sleep properly last night because of the previous night's event. She hurriedly got up from the bed and noticed Liam was already up but wasn’t present in the room. Thinking he was downstairs she hurriedly went to the washroom to freshen up. She brushed her teeth, took a warm shower and then got changed into a pair of the thick maroon sweaters and white leggings. She didn’t blow dry her hair instead left it to air dry. As it was Saturday Tracy wasn’t going to come. Celeste told Tracy not to come on weekends as she would be home and could manage everything on her own. She urged her to take care of her sick husband properly. When Celeste reached downstairs, she found Liam sitting in the living room and reading the newspaper while drinking his coffee. He was
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
