Lies in the Billionaire's Eyes Chapter 37
Chapter 37“Goodness. I think she had so much fun to the point that she fell asleep,” Aunt Melva commented while watching her own daughter sleep on the sofa at Sean's home. Claire was peacefully sleeping and I don't think she plans to wake up for dinner. It's a good thing that Sean made sure that she's full earlier. “Of course, she did.” I replied. “Dahlia, I don't know how to thank you and Mr. Cohen. But you don't have to buy all these things for Claire. You know, I can't afford this. I'm afraid that she might get used to all this wealth. I can't provide her with that, Dahlia.” I only gave her a soft smile as my hand landed on hers. “From now on, if you need anything, especially if it is for Claire, don't hesitate to call me, okay? You're not alone now, Aunt.” We're not alone now. I don't have any family aside from them. I will be willing to give everything if it is for them. “I really bought all of this for Claire. She's a good child,” Sean smirked as he glanced at Claire who

Chapter 38I was crying all the time. I couldn't even refrain my tears from falling. The bleeding of my chest is extreme, to the point that Ford and Charlotte could probably hear me sobbing from the back seat. I was trying not to make any noise, but I just couldn't. “You should break up with Sean,” Charlotte said while we were stuck in the traffic. I saw how she was able to capture Ford's eyes as well while she remained firm, looking somewhere else. She's upset. I can easily tell that. I know this kind of tone of Charlotte. “Resign to him. I should not have let you apply in the first place,” she added and raised the tissue on her hand without even giving me an eye behind her. Charlotte was always like this when she knew that I was hurt. She would choose not to look at me rather than watching me cry. “I can't do that, Charlotte. I love Se—”“Fucking shit, Dahlia.” She said firmly. Her voice was sharp and I could see how much she was trying to stop the monster inside her. Charlotte

Chapter 39“Let's go home, Sean.” I uttered while he was hugging me. I don't care if he sees me as Celeste. I don't care if he called me Celeste before embracing me tightly. I am willing to blind myself from the truth for the sake of my love towards him. “Please,” I begged. I was begging again. I just want to go home with him and take care of him. I was not there when he fell down alone after Celeste's death. But now that I am here, I want to catch him. I want to pick up every broken piece of him. “Please, just this once, listen to me.” I even cupped his face gently. I don't mind if we were being soaked by the heavy rain. I don't care if I catch a cold from this craziness of mine. All I care about is Sean. “Sean, let's go home.” Ford said firmly and grabbed his wrist. I glanced at them as they covered us with the umbrella. I saw from Charlotte's eyes how much she's hurting because of me—because of my stupidity over love. I gave back an apologetic look at her. “I won't leave Celes

Chapter 40 “Leave, Dahlia.” I couldn't move. My feet were glued on the ground while I couldn't even shed my tears from falling while I was staring at Sean. He was pushing me away as if I am not his girlfriend. He's treating me like I am just his secretary. “I won't leave,” I said firmly, desperately. I was too brave to stand still beyond his sharp words. “I will stay in the guest room. You should take a rest,” I don't know how I managed to turn my back and take my steps out of his room. As soon as I closed the door, my knees automatically folded and I found myself on the ground, too fragile to stand up. I began to cry it all in silence. I cried a river. “Ms. Dahlia,” I quickly shed my tears when I heard the maid. “Hey,” I uttered and forced myself to stand up. I faked a thin smile at her, trying to conceal what I really feel. But then, her eyes were pitying me.“Why are you doing this to yourself when you can just leave?” I paused. I was lost for words. A lump was stuck in my t

Chapter 41 My entire body felt numb. It seems like all the strength I have suddenly vanished. It feels heavy as if I was carrying a huge object on top of me. My eyes were burning and my head felt big. “You're awake,” he captured my eyes from the white ceiling. This is the second time I woke up and the white ceiling of the hospital greeted me. First, I was in an accident saving an innocent kid. Now, I am here for the reason that I still don't know. “W-What happened?” It was hard to use my voice. My throat was rough. Ford beside me looked bothered and frustrated. I could feel how much he wanted to scold me but my situation right now is holding him back. “You passed out. The doctor said it's because of stress and lack of sleep. I didn't know that you're anemic,” he took a deep sigh. His voice was calm, but his eyes weren't. “You also have a fever,” he added. “You should have listened to me when I told you to just rest. Look what happened,” he shook his head and even rolled his eyes

Chapter 42“I'm giving you the job. You'll be my secretary instead of him,” Charlotte uttered while we were in the café. My eyes were pinned to my resignation letter in my hands. I was a bit dubious to pass it to Sean. “Don't tell me you're hesitant? Come on, Dahlia. Do you think it would be good to still work with him? Besides, he's the one who broke up with you. The contract is invalidated,” she heaved a heavy sigh and I shut my eyes firmly. I had to massage my head for a moment. Yesterday, I was discharged from the hospital as well and Sean broke up with me before that. It's crazy, but I've been having these thoughts to try taking pain killers to lessen the heaviness of my chest. The pain is striking down, which shatters my heart swiftly. I couldn't take Sean out of my head. I've been thinking and thinking about him. I couldn't forget every corner of his face and every memory that we shared together. His kisses, his touch, his scent—everything about him is just hard to forget. “

Chapter 43“Why did you break up with him?” Claire asked while we were both in the room that her mother allowed us to sleep. The other room is for Charlotte, and for Ford who is still not here yet. “He's the one who broke up with me, Claire, not me.” I simply smirked and shook my head.She's just a little kid and yet she's showering me her tons of questions about Sean. “And why? He seems nice. I like him for you,” I breathed heavily and faced her. She's the first one who said that she likes Sean for me. Everybody around me hates him for me as they know that Sean only sees Celeste to me. I smiled weakly. Even if she likes him for me, there's nothing I can do. I gave it all. I did everything I could for him even though I was the one he was shattering. In the end, he still ended our relationship. “He loves you, I saw it from his eyes. The way he looks at you, love is in those eyes.” I paused from folding my clothes when Claire mentioned that. I really can't believe I'm hearing all of

Chapter 44Just like the waves from the ocean that never stops from coming back to the shore, everything came back as well and hit me all over again as soon as our eyes met together. The waves of our memories and the waves of the striking pain in my chest came back and hit the spot. “Sean,” I began to tremble through my spine. My knees became feeble all of a sudden and I almost lost my balance. The waves that hit the shore soaked my feet, and I didn't know if it was the one dragging me to lose my strength or it is the reason that Sean Cohen is in front of me after telling me to leave his life. “I should leave. It was nice meeting you,” I didn't absorb what the stranger guy told me anymore the moment I saw him leaving through my peripheral vision. My eyes were pinned at Sean that I wasn't able to give him an eye. “W-What are you doing here?” I had enough bravery to still ask that. “Can we talk?” My eyes watered. I swear, I was only trying to hold back my tears. After telling me a

Lies in the Billionaire's Eyes Epilogue
Epilogue1 month later…“It's been a while, Sean.” I muttered as I placed the flowers on top of his tombstone. I paused when I felt how the cold breeze embraced me and I felt like it was Sean. It sounds crazy, I know. But then, for the past month that Sean is gone, I never really felt like he really left us. There are these weird moments where I feel like he was around me, responding to any of my thoughts through the wind. “Perhaps you and Celeste are really destined forever,” I added and made a chuckle before my eyes landed at Celeste's tombstone beside Sean as well. I was the one who decided to bury him beside Celeste. Well, I know that Celeste has a biggest place in his heart and this is where everything started. If it is not for Emman, I would feel like I was only an extra to their love story—perhaps, I am Sean's side story. I placed other flowers at Celeste's tombstone as well. Looking at her tombstone reminds me of the day I witnessed how miserable Sean was because of his de

Chapter 80“I'm sorry, Dahlia…” Nathan uttered to me right after I still brought Sean to the hospital. He eyed me with so much despair, mourning already while I was standing there with my tears couldn't stop from pouring out of my eyes. “I'm afraid what we fear just happened,” he added. The moment I heard that from Nathan, I fell on the ground, losing all my strength. I wanted to scream but I felt like I lost my voice. I wanted to cry aloud but I felt like I had no strength to. My world shattered into a million pieces again and it felt like everything just stopped. “I'm sorry,” Nathan's voice cracked. He tried to hug me, but I moved away and quickly stood up to see Sean once again. “Sean,” I called, feeling so weak. I wanted to hear his voice and see his smile that I used to admire, but then, I knew that it is not possible anymore, which breaks me even more. My hands were shivering but I managed to grasp his now cold hands. He died while he was with me to the place where he first

Chapter 79“They want to see you, Sean.” I uttered. Emman was still with us, sitting on the other side of the bed. He looked away, and I knew that he didn't want to see them or should I say, he didn't want them to see him looking feeble like this. I heaved a light sigh while still holding his hand. “Don't you want to see them? They have been worried about you, especially Ford.” I mentioned trying to convince him. He shut his eyes firmly before he finally made a nod at me. “Really?” I asked delightedly. “Yeah,” he replied. I smiled from ear to ear after hearing that.“Hold on, I'll call them.” I quickly said before I ran out of the room to call the three of them waiting downstairs. “Can you calm down? You'll see him,” I heard Charlotte say to Ford who was walking endlessly in front of them. “He wants to see you,” I said, loud enough for them to hear me. All their eyes shifted at me from upstairs while I was wearing a soft smile, feeling a glimpse of hope. After a few weeks of no

Chapter 78I was staring at the coffee in front of me, watching it become cold. I am at home now. Later, I will go back to Sean's house to look after him again. I feel tired, but I know that it is not because of taking care of Sean; I'm tired of seeing him struggling and hearing his screams each day. I feel like it traumatized me. His screams stay in my head and I still hear it wherever I am. “You okay?” Knox asked and sat beside me. I had to pull myself back together as I don't want to worry him. “Yeah, I think so.” I replied as I forced myself to draw a tiny smile. “Are you sure? I know you, Dahlia. You can't hide things from me,” he added and I felt his hand invade my hand on the table. That was the moment I glanced at him—and in one snap, I felt my eyes watered immediately. I look like a kid who cries automatically after seeing her father. “Perhaps, not.” I replied. Knox did what he always does. He pulled me closer to him and hid my face on his broad chest. I began to sob and

Chapter 77“AHHHHHHH!” “Sean, please! Let's bring you to the hospital!” I exclaimed for the third time while everything was a mess inside his room. I couldn't do anything while he was shouting in pain and crumpling on his bed. He looks so pale and weak and yet I couldn't do anything to help him out. He was panting, chasing his breath before he just grabbed the bread knife from the side table of his bed and now glanced at me, pointing me out with that damn knife. “Kill me, Dahlia! Just fucking kill me, please!” At that moment that he was almost begging me to just kill him, I felt how many daggers pierced my chest that I knew it was bleeding so much. My tears began to betray me again while staring at Sean. His eyes were glazing over while he was holding the bread knife so tight. “What are you waiting for? K-Kill me! AHHHHHH!” The knife fell from his grasp as he screamed again and started to crumple in so much pain on his bed. “Sean,” my voice broke as I went beside him and held hi

Chapter 761 month later…Some people hate to stare right through the sky when it is too bright. They get blind from it and the sky's brightness is hurting their eyes. But then, I am different. Watching how each cloud moved slowly in front of me felt like it was dragging me along with it as well. Seeing the beautiful color of the sky along with the sunshine shining upon us captivates me entirely. I heaved a heavy sigh as I closed my eyes calmly, feeling the heat of the sun shining upon my skin. I just offered myself there, laying down on the sand and enjoying the peace. I could hear the noises of the people around me who were having their own worlds but nothing can beat the deafening but mesmerizing sound of the ocean’s waves. I could hear every move of it, back and forth. The sand on my skin was so gentle that I felt even more comfortable with it. “Wake up, woman.” My eyes remained closed even after hearing that voice. I don't need a minute to identify whose voice is that. I heard

Chapter 75 “Have you asked him?” Nathan asked. He came here this morning and I guess he only stopped by to ask about that. I placed the coffee on the small table in our living area before I glanced at him and sat beside him. “I did,” I replied. “He already knows that truth as well about Emman,” I added and wore that tiny smile. “How sure are you that Sean will live if he takes the treatment?” I asked again, even though Sean already refused to take it no matter how I persuaded him.Nathan paused and looked away for a moment before he blew out a little sigh.“As I said it's a risk, Dahlia. Who knows? He might still live if he decides to take the trea—”“And if he doesn't?” It shut him up. I witnessed how he was lost for words the moment I brought up the other side of Sean's situation. No matter how we avoid thinking about that negative side, we cannot run away from it; we cannot deny that death is indeed chasing him, trying to collect his life. “Dahlia, you know that I'm just doing

Chapter 74 “Do you think he won't hate me for being absent all those years?” Sean asked while he was driving. We are already near our house. After I revealed the truth to him and right after we fought, we reconciled for the sake of Emman. I still feel bad everytime he mentions his absence, which was not just his fault, but mine. I do not blame myself as I know that I had a deep reason to leave and hide my pregnancy from him, however, I couldn't help but wonder what change could it make if I came back and just told him that I was conceiving our child. “Emman thinks like an adult,” I uttered as the side of my lips rose. That is one of the things that makes me proud as his mother. “Like Claire before?” He asked and chuckled. “Yeah,” I paused for a moment. “Raising him alone wasn't hard. Not because Knox was there, but because Emman stood up with me like a real man beyond his age. He did everything to avoid worrying me and making me feel a headache. He's matured at his young age,” I

Chapter 73“Emman is your son, Sean…he's our son,” I bursted into tears as soon as I said that. After carrying it for 6 years, I finally spilled the truth to Sean. His lips parted but he remained stunned. He didn't move as if he became a statue who was still absorbing it in his head. Instead, a single tear just fell from his left eyes while his eyes were firm and surprised, glued at me. “I-I’m so sorry, Sean.” He dodged my touch before I could even reach his arm. He stood up and turned his back at me, facing his desk. He didn't say a word, but I could see right through his face that he was upset because of what I had done. “You were pregnant?” He uttered as he faced me again. I nodded slowly in tears. What I just told him weakened him. I can see that from his eyes right now. I was only trembling while looking at him. My chest was aching every pound of it. “And you didn't tell me?” He asked unbelievably with unfairness invading his eyes. “I'm sorry, Sean. I'm so so—”“Bullshit, D
