Lies in the Billionaire's Eyes Chapter 51
Chapter 516 years later…“He really loves beef broccoli, huh?” Charlotte uttered while watching my son eat in the dining room. “Reminds me of someone,” Ford commented as they both chuckled. “Who?” My naive son asked. “Don't listen to them. Go and finish your food,” I quickly said and flashed a soft smile at him. “Stop playing with me,” I glared at the two of them. “Why are you even here? Aren't you busy?” Because I am damn busy. I couldn't even stay in one place in our house. I have to prepare everything before we all leave the house. Emmanuel will go to school, Knox is going to the hospital, while me, I'm going to my coffee shops and check everything. “We’re going to invite you to the opening of our restaurant,” Ford uttered. My attention was captured when Knox’ phone suddenly rang. I quickly grabbed it and took the call. “Hello?” “Ms. Dahlia? This is Nurse Amanda, where's Dr. Knox? He has a patient scheduled at 9 am,” I quickly search for the wall clock in the house and it

Chapter 52“Where are we going, Mommy?” Emmanuel asked while we were all done packing our things. Our luggages are already in our living area. Knox and I packed everything last night because our flight is in the afternoon today. “We're going back to the Philippines. It's where we lived before,” I replied and gave him a tiny smile while he was still playing on the sofa. “Are you sure you're going back?” Charlotte asked while keeping her eyes at me, trying to read what's running in my head. I heaved a sigh. “It would be obscene if we don't go back for Knox’ father. They are just so excited to meet us personally. Besides, I'm lucky that they don't mind if…” I paused for a moment as I glanced at Emmanuel. He was too innocent from all of this. He must not know the truth about his father. Everything's fine now. I don't want to ruin it anymore. “If Knox is not Emman’s father,” I added in my lowest voice, refraining Emman from hearing about it. “You might see him again,” she mentioned. I

Chapter 53I don't know why I stayed there the moment I saw him. My eyes were glued to him while I was watching him a bit far from me. His eyes were pinned to the floor where I used to leave. When I checked where he was directly looking at, I realized that he was actually glancing at my exact apartment. I shivered. I didn't know if it was just my jet lag, or I became feeble the moment I saw him again after 6 years. I could not even move inside the car. I was too stunned to leave in secrecy. Everything waved in my head. The good and bad memories we both had. The wound is still here. It didn't fade a little up until now. Anger. That is all I could feel. My head was filled with tons of questions. Why is he here? What is he doing in the place where I lived before? I was watching him keenly and he was just really standing there. His hands were hiding inside his pants while those eyes were filled with guilt, regret and yearning. A minute later, it seemed like his phone rang as he placed

Chapter 54“Mommy!” I feel like I froze even more when Emman came back again. He quickly held my hand as he went beside me. I tried my best to stay firm in front of Sean while his son is also in front of him. “Emman!” Charlotte exclaimed. I even heard her panting. It seems like my son became stubborn again and was able to escape from her. I felt like I was holding my breath. I couldn't breathe properly while I'm trying not to break. I felt how Knox held my hand tightly. If he is not here right now, I would totally be feeble. Good thing he's here to catch me again before I could even fall. “Come on, Emman. Let's go there,” Charlotte uttered to my son. I saw how Sean's eyes landed on Emman. His eyes became soft as if he was captivated by how adorable my son is. I held Knox' hand tighter while my heart was racing aloud. “No, Aunt! I want my Mom and Dad!” He exclaimed and pouted cutely. Beyond being weak that my knees would probably fold anytime, I still lowered down for Emman and cup

Chapter 55“Good morning,” Charlotte greeted as she found me in the dining room, staring at my coffee. I've been here for a few minutes and I haven't touched the coffee yet. “Morning,” I replied. I was still not back to myself. I feel like half of me was still asleep.“Did you two talk about it?” Her brows arched at me. I crossed my brows for a moment as my head was still not in the mood to process things this early. My lips parted when I realized what she was pertaining to.“Oh, Sean?” I nodded as I finally took a sip in my coffee. “We did, last night. He was anxious,” I mentioned and heaved a sigh. I hope I was able to clear his fear last night. “You can't blame him. Knox loves you so much that he even left his career here and took the risk to be with you in Australia. He's probably scared that you'll leave him and choose Sean,” a tiny smile flashed on my lips. I was lost for words. I understand what she's saying. It's the same perception as mine. “Hold on, don't tell me you sti

Chapter 56“H-He’s…” his jaw dropped right after hearing the whole story from us. I smirked and shook my head unbelievably. He's so naive. “Goodness,” he even covered his mouth with his hand in surprise.“That's why Emman looks like him,” I don't know if I should laugh or not, but his reaction was priceless. It looks like his world collapsed. Well, he knows that Emman is not Knox’ son, but he has no idea about his real father. At least, now he knows. “You're lucky that I didn't kill you when you were being nosy earlier,” Knox still glared at him. “Why is he here? It seems like you two are close. Does he go here often?” I asked with curiosity. I couldn't help but wonder why he is here. Aside from that, when they were talking earlier, Nathan seemed to know a lot about him and he was not surprised to see Sean in the hospital again. “Is he sick?” I asked directly. “Well, he has a c—” he paused as if he realized something. His eyes landed at me and I had to tilt my head when he looked

Chapter 57“Have you met his father again?” I was chopping the carrots and I quickly paused the moment she asked that. Mom, Charlotte and I are now preparing food for dinner. We will go home as well after the dinner. When I glanced at Charlotte, I saw how she also paused from chopping the onions and now eyed me. “We did…twice,” I admitted. I don't wanna hide things from her. I know that she's also worried with our situation. “Really? He saw Sean? How about Knox?” Her eyes were drawn at me so I had to stop from chopping the vegetables. “Knox introduced himself to him, but Sean doesn't know about Emman yet. I don't have a plan to tell him about that truth,” I replied before I quickly looked away as I also flashed her a soft smile. “He has to know, Dahlia. Sean has to know and Emman has to know as well. Truth cannot be concealed forever,” Charlotte nodded to me and shrugged. I knew that she would advise me the same thing they advised me as well. “Aunt, it's not easy to tell. Let's

Chapter 58“Tell me, Dahlia. Who is Emman’s real father?” I was lost for words. A lump was probably stuck in my throat. I froze as I won't move no matter what happens. I was glued there while I was holding Emman's hand and facing his real father. While looking at Sean, the waves of the past are coming to me. The wound he left in my heart and how he was absent during those 6 goddamn years. He must not know. I refused to let him know that Emman is his son. “My life is not your business, Mr. Cohen.” I replied firmly. I refused to step back from him so I remained cold and brave in front of him. I am happy now. My son is happy with Knox as his father. We don't need Sean to enter our lives anymore. “He said the real father might have left you alone,” he walked closer towards me and I didn't melt with that. “We both know that you didn't have any man before Knox aside from me,” he whispered. I crumpled my hand beside me. “Am I his father?” It was the question I always fear to hear from

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
