Love Under False Pretense Chapter 15 She Collapsed
The minute Sebastian walked into the mansion, he wanted to run off in the opposite direction.The argument with his grandfather still loomed over him that he was always in a terrible mood. And seeing Andrea humming in the kitchen like it was the best day of her life irritated him greatly when she was the reason why he felt this way.Still, he entered and walked barely acknowledging her. For a moment, he imagined that it was the blonde-haired woman cooking for him instead of the actress. And it gave him comfort, if only for a small amount.“Seb? I’m making fettuccine alfredo. Just give me a few minutes,” Andrea informed him before going back to singing at the food.“Don’t bother, I’m not hungry,” Sebastian responded dryly. But Andrea chose to ignore it, deciding to follow after him. “But lately you’ve been busy so I’m not sure if you’re eating well.”Sebastian’s erratic steps stopped as he whipped towards the direction of his wife. “What do you think I do during the day, Andrea?” She w
Love Under False Pretense Chapter 16 Grim Reaper
“We’re here, Sir,” Robert passively informed his boss after reaching the entrance to the condominium building.Sebastian didn’t respond but rather crossed his arms. His narrowed eyes met with his assistant’s from the rearview mirror as he said, “I’ve been ignoring your attitude with me lately because of how long we’ve been working together. But if you do it again,” the CEO opened the car door for himself and before leaving said, “Consider this my last warning.”Robert watched his boss’ figure disappear into the lobby, realizing that he didn’t have a say in Sebastian’s relationship so he shouldn’t be so concerned about them. Granted, it was the first time Robert raised his voice at him as he fought for them to go to the hospital instead.He closed his eyes shut, convincing himself not to get carried away with the couple’s state of affairs, “Sebastian and Andrea knew what they were getting into when they signed the contract, didn't they?”“Lilith!” Sebastian burst into the heiress’ room
Love Under False Pretense Chapter 17 I’ll Give You What You Want
“We need to talk,” Sebastian almost growled as he said it, not caring who was in the room with them. Then his eyes met with a stranger’s.“I think we have to stay here,” the man said. And it clicked. The curt ‘friend’ that he barred Andrea from meeting with. The bastard on from the phone call.The CEO’s mood worsened. “You.” His nostrils flared as his eyes narrowed into slits. Any wrong move from the stranger and he’d be attacking like a wild dog.“Ren,” Andrea looked up to her friend in confusion, not able to comprehend a fight that was about to break out. All she felt was glee now that her husband was there. His face was the only one she wanted to see right now. And Ren could clearly see that.“I’ll take care of it.” Ren patted her shoulder and gave her an ‘I got you’ expression.The manager clasped her palms together, creating a sharp sound that caught everyone’s attention. “It looks like it’s getting a bit too crowded in here. Everyone who’s not Andy’s husband, get out.”She had h
Love Under False Pretense Chapter 18 He’s Too Distracted
“I’m sorry I only got to visit now, Andrea.” Edmond sat on the side of her bed, surprising doctors and patients alike with the number of gifts he brought.“Thank you, Grandpa. But you shouldn’t have,” his granddaughter-in-law winced at the extravagant renovation that made her hospital room look like a hotel VIP suite. What used to be a neutral-colored and unwelcoming space transformed into a royalty’s chamber. People would think that it was like entering a different dimension.But their conversation soon died down after she answered all his questions regarding the incident. And she told the chairman the same thing she told the police officers when they asked her for details.“It was a normal day on set.”“No, no one was acting suspicious.”“I didn’t know that the gun was real. Cooper appeared to believe it was fake too.”Both were unable to think of anything else to say that would not dampen the atmosphere, in particular, Edmond since he didn’t see any evidence that Sebastian came to
Love Under False Pretense Chapter 19 Dare Lie To Me
For the first time in weeks, Andrea slept in complete serenity. Her head rested on the coolest side of the pillow. The blanket that covered her felt like warm clouds. And the expectation for tomorrow was bright and promising. Just one thing, or rather person, was missing.But even her subconscious provided it for her, even if it was just in the realm of her dreams.There, she was sent back to the shabby compartment her mother used to lock her in when she didn't follow her extreme instructions. But instead of the peeling walls with cockroaches crawling on them, the space was surprisingly clean. And when she slid the door open, Sebastian was there. And he was smiling. At her.“Honey, did you find what you were looking for?” He donned his usual work clothes, but on top was a pink apron hemmed with ruffles. His whole ensemble made her oddly blush.“Yes,” she replied and held a towel up.“Good, because our breakfast is ready.” Her husband had in his hands a plate of maple syrup-drizzled pa
Love Under False Pretense Chapter 20 No Hope
Andrea thought that two more days would help in making her decision. But the short span of time further spiraled her into confusion. Her injury was now just an afterthought.She now found herself slowly picking the petals off her get-well flowers from her company, Elysian Pictures, and fans. One look at her bedroom and anyone would assume immediately that it was a florist shop with how the plants that varied in kinds and colors filled her room.“I tell Seb and ask him what to do,” Andrea mumbled as she pulled one rose petal. “Or I decide what to do.” She didn’t even have the strength to decide for herself whether to keep the pregnancy or not. But how could she?Who else do women go to when facing this kind of problem? The answer popped up in her mind. “Their mothers.” And it was as if she was punched in the gut.The person who gave birth to her got the right to be called ‘Mom’ for that sole reason. But the woman she truly considered her mother slowly aged in a hospital bed, oblivious
Love Under False Pretense Chapter 21 Cheer Her Up
Ren looked around the apartment which felt emptier after her friend and his Grinch of a husband stepped out. She shrugged her shoulders at the neat state Andrea left her bedroom in. A few of the actress’ clothes were left in the closet, her foundation and face cream sat on top of the small vanity table, and the photos of everyone from her welcoming party.“Eh, might as well leave it the way it is.” Although Sebastian made a stand about Andrea never staying the night outside their home, she knew that wouldn’t last long.Ren sighed, “Jesus Christ, Andy. What did you get yourself into?” For a woman in her 20s working in the entertainment industry, getting pregnant was one of the worst things to happen to her. And Ren was familiar with how Andrea loved working.But she also knew all too well Andrea’s greatest weakness.The manager looked at Andrea’s schedule from next week until the end of the year. And although she left Josh’s movie, she still had a lot of engagements and public appeara
Love Under False Pretense Chapter 22 Keep Your Voices Down
Andrea relished in the tranquil comfort she was in. Aside from not being able to move around like normal, there were no other concerns that troubled her. Mainly because she had finally sorted out how she was moving forward. Which would be for her husband and their child in her womb.“Please be patient in the meantime, dearie.” Andrea lovingly rubbed her stomach that had yet to show any symptoms of being pregnant. “Mommy has to find the right opportunity to tell Daddy about you.”Even if she had decided to keep the baby, the actress was still unsure how Sebastian was going to respond to all of this.But something gave her the idea that his reaction might not be all that bad.Andrea sighed as she closed her eyes. Her memory drifted to when Sebastian left this morning. How he put on his authentic smile. She knew that much because of the way the left corner of his lips was higher than the other. The only goofy look he’d ever had.And how he went out of his way to accommodate for her speci
