Warren’s POV
I know that this is the perfect time to meet the owner of Sullivan industries. I have to talk to her, to persuade her to choose my offer instead of Calvin's. I placed the invitation on the table and stared at the wonderful view behind my office desk. I sighed and tucked my hands inside my pant's pocket. My mind flew off again on what could Bella be doing right now. Perhaps, she is sleeping cuddling Calvin on their bed. I shaked away the thought and pinched the bridge of my nose. I can't let them distract me.I told my assistant to prepare some appointments to look for my outfit. As usual, I will bring Ivy with me like the past few years.I accompanied her in choosing her outfits and she also accompanied me. That day was disastrous for us. Both of us can't decide on anything to wear that we had to rely on what Leslie thinks about our outfits. It didn't help that Ivy doesn't get along with Leslie unlike Bella. The moment they both laid their eyes on eBella’s POVI can't help it but to cling on Calvin's arms tightly as they approached near me. A shiver went down through my spine at Warren's intense gaze. Ivy looks like she saw a ghost, she looks pale and I could see drops of cold sweat on her forehead despite that the room is air-conditioned. Warren offered us a handshake and Calvin took his hand in a tight grip.Everyone is looking at us, I'm sure they can also feel the tension around us. I also shaked Warren's hand and sparks flew away again making me remove my hand immediately.At least, there’s that thing that didn’t change between us.Ivy pasted a smile on her face trying to pretend like nothing happened, "Nice dress!" I complimented her. The dress she was wearing was mine. It was the dress I bought the night I got divorced, same with the shoes, bag, necklace and earrings she is wearing. I bought it all with my own money."Thank you!" she muttered and tucked a strand of her hair beh
I watched them for hours waiting for Ivy to just leave Warren alone. The moment Ivy left I was overcome by fear. All of the reasons why I should talk to Warren just left my mind. I can’t think clearly anymore. I was overwhelmed by my emotions. I averted my gaze from Warren when I saw him looking directly at me. I tried to look around for help but Calvin and Lisa weren’t around. ‘Shit’ I cursed. They promised that they will be with me. Where are they?“Bella, can we talk?” Warren asked behind me and I don’t have any choice but to talk to him even if I dread doing that.I turned around and smiled sweetly at him, “Sure.”“Can we talk privately, please?” He asked. I’m starting to freak out internally. I can’t even stare right through his face, and now I’ll have to talk to him alone!“Sure.” I can’t believe I just said that. What is wrong with me?!We walked out
Warren's POVSomething doesn't feel right. I don't believe a bit of what Bella had said. She will never be capable of killing an innocent child."Hun, let's go inside," Ivy insisted and grabbed my arm tightly."I'm sorry, I need to go," I carefully removed Ivy's hands around me, but she held on me more tightly."Are you coming after her?" Ivy asked, then scoffed. "She's not worth it Warren! Don't forget the things you've gone through because of her," Ivy reminded me the reason why I should let Bella go.Even so, I couldn't do it. I just found her and I can't let her go, not when she's hiding something from me."I need to follow her," I sternly told her with eyes showing how meeting Bella meant for me. How all this is something I've been longing to happen.Ivy sighed and looked at me ridiculously. Perhaps, yes I was a ridiculous man. Someone more silly than a clown, but who could blame me? Who could blame me for falling in love in a vicious woman? W
Warren’s POVMy heart sped up at the information that I heard. There’s a young boy and a young girl living with her. Was those children mine? Was the other one Calvin’s child?My heart turned numb as I thought of Bella finally moving on with her life with Calvin and having a child with him while I’m still miserable and pathetic for wanting to have her in my life again. Has she really moved on from me?-----------------------------------Ivy’s POVAs soon as I left from Warren’s sight, I hurriedly walked towards the farthest and hidden part of the venue to call Gemma.“Please pick up!” I growled intensely in anger. I can’t describe what I’m feeling right now.I thought Bella is gone forever. If I knew that she was still alive, I could have prepared for her arrival.Warren and I is just about to get married. She can't just appear out of nowhere and ruin that.What angers me the mos
Bella's POVThe paparazzi's fall back because of the black limousine blocking their way. They were all curious to know who it was, even I was surprised yo see this unfamiliar car.Everyone was trying to take a look inside, even I did, but the tinted car windows made it impossible for us.The windows on the driver seat rolled down, revealing an unfamiliar face of a man."Good morning Ms. Sullivan. I was ordered to bring your children to school. Please call them immediately while I'm blocking the media," he said in a formal tone making me nod my head."Okay," I answered and went back inside to grab my children."Charles, Charlie cover your faces. I'm bringing you to school." I didn't had to tell them twice as they ran outside and entered the vehicle in a crouch position.The media doesn't seem to have notice them. The limousine had blocked their view of my front door."Get in," I whispered to them and held the limousine's door open before coming
Bella's POVI was insane... I was stupid. What was I doing? Even after everything, I still chose to keep my children for myself.I just can't, I'm afraid of losing them, I'm afraid of losing the only thing that I have."Mom, did you told dad about the event?" Charlie asked as I tuck them both to sleep."I," I paused, not sure of what to tell them. I looked at Charles hoping that he would say anything to stop his sister, but like Charlie he's also looking at me expectantly.He was always the one who stops Charlie from asking about their father and putting me in an uncomfortable position.I don't know what to tell them. I don't know what answer they wanted to hear.I sat beside Charlie's bed and looked at her in the eye. "I'm sorry Charlie, your father can't come." I won't let him come and be near the both of them."So, you asked him or not?" Charlie asked me in a rough tone. I felt disrespected, but she was only disappointed that is why she is
Bella’s POVWe were all quiet in the whole ride. Charles was scowling, but not saying anything while Charlie is fidgeting a lot and spacing off while looking at the window. She might was excited, but covered with anxiety at the same time.“Don’t forget what I told you guys, okay? Be good, don’t stress out your father too much and don’t ask him a lot of questions,” I reminded them as I look at them through the rearview mirror.Andrew pulled up the car in front of a penthouse which is located on the address that Warren gave me. Charles and Charlie stared outside and didn’t made a move even though we were already here.I looked outside and saw Warren looking back at us. He is waiting for us to come out with a look of worry in his face.I opened the car door and went out, then Charlie followed suit.Both of them stood up silently beside the car, not knowing what to do. Warren looked at me skeptically, not knowing wh
In just a few rings, Ivy answered."I told you to guard and watch Warren!" I shouted at her angrily."Of course I'm watching him! What else do you think I'm doing?" He shouted back on an equal tone."Then how come you didn't know that Warren is at the amusement park right now with Bella's children?"I heard a sound of the chair scratching the floor's surface before she answered, "Bella's child is alive?" She asked ghastly."It's children. She had twins a boy and a girl.""She told us that her children died.""Of course she would lie, but because of you Warren was able to find out the truth.""Where are they?""Go to the amusement park now and look for them. You have to do something," I told her without breathing."W-what should I d-do?" She stammered and I heard her things clatter in the background."We have no choice. Warren already knew about the kids and we can't hide them from him. You had to pretend that you're happy about
