Lustful Desire Chapter 97.
Amelia's POV"I should probably get going," he said abruptly, pushing himself away from the table. "I have some errands to run."Disappointment washed over me, a bitter aftertaste in my mouth."Oh," I mumbled, trying to hide the disappointment in my voice.I followed him as he walked into the living room. He picked up Chloe who was engrossed in the animation she was moving and kissed her cheek before saying, "Chloe, I have to go to the office for a while, but I'll be back soon."Chloe looks away from the animated movie she was watching and looks at her dad, her mouth in a pout. "But Daddy, today's Saturday and you promised you'd stay and help me build my dollhouse today.""Chloe…"A storm cloud seemed to gather over Chloe's face, her lower lip trembling ominously. "No, Daddy!" she shrieked, throwing her arms around Eddie's neck and burying her face in his chest. "You promised you'd build my dollhouse today! You can't go to work!"Eddie knelt down in front of her, his gentle demeanor

Amelia's POVThe next few minutes were a whirlwind of flour-dusted hands, playful giggles, and a growing cloud of white settling over the kitchen counter. Chloe, a little flour imp radiating from her nose, looked like a miniature baker gone rogue."Oops!" she exclaimed, her smile wide as she accidentally knocked over the sugar bowl, sending a cascade of sparkling crystals cascading onto the floor.Instead of getting frustrated, I found myself laughing. "Uh oh," I teased, "looks like we have a little sugar spill."Chloe, seeing that I was not angry with her and was laughing instead, scooped handfuls of flour and rained it down on me like a mischievous snow fairy. Soon, we were both covered in a white dusting, giggling uncontrollably.In the midst of the flour fight, something shifted within me. The tension that had been simmering since Eddie left seemed to dissipate, replaced by a sense of carefree joy. Here I was, covered in flour with a little girl who seemed to find endless amusemen

Amelia's POV"That's alright, sweetie," I said, gently tucking a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "Maybe you and your mom haven't had the chance yet, but that doesn't mean it can't happen in the future. Maybe next time you see her, you can ask if the two of you can bake something together."Chloe looked up at me, a flicker of hope sparking in her eyes. "Really? You think she'd say yes?""Of course," I encouraged, forcing a smile. "I bet she'd love to spend some time with you in the kitchen. Just like moms and daughters do."Chloe's energy level soon began to wane. She slumped in her chair, her eyelids drooping. The playful chaos had taken its toll."Tired, sweetie?" I asked, gently stroking her hair.She nodded, a yawn escaping her lips. With a sigh, I gathered her into my arms and carried her to the living room, settling her on the couch with a stuffed animal.While she drifted off to sleep, I cleaned up the kitchen, the remnants of our baking adventure scattered across the count

Blair’s POVA grin stretched across my face as my phone buzzed. I just finished up at the hospital, making sure my patients were all settled and packing my things to go home, when a message popped up. It was from Thomas! "My baby," I mumbled to myself, unlocking my phone to see his message.His text sent a jolt of excitement through you. "Meet me at my place," it read. "We gotta nail those pre-wedding photos today," The butterflies in my stomach erupted into a full-on swarm. Marrying Thomas, the love of my life, felt closer than ever, and the idea of capturing those pre-wedding memories made my heart skip a beat.Thomas took some days off at work some days ago, explaining to the director that he had a wedding to plan and he needed some time to do so. Everyone in the hospital was aware of our relationship and without pressing further, the director gave him the permission to take some days off. Seeing his message at that moment made me wonder if he had bought his tuxedo for the weddi

Amelia's POV"Tell me about your dream family," I requested, a shy smile gracing my lips.Eddie's gaze turned dreamy, his eyes fixed on a point somewhere beyond the trees. "Two kids," he mused, "a boy and a girl. Maybe even a pair of rambunctious golden retrievers thrown into the mix."My heart skipped a beat. "A boy and a girl?" I echoed, surprise laced with a tremor of delight."Yeah," he said, turning to look at me, his gaze locking onto mine. "A little girl with your laugh and your eyes, and a boy with your mischievous spirit and your artistic talent.""Cooking is not an artistic talent," I said, mumbling."It is, Amelia. Especially your cooking," he replied, staring intensely into my eyes.A blush crept up my cheeks as I held his gaze. The future stretched before us, an uncharted map waiting to be explored. We'd talked for hours that day, weaving intricate dreams of a life together - a cozy house filled with laughter, a backyard teeming with playful children, holidays spent surro

Blair’s POVI finally arrived at Thomas’s place and I hummed happily as I walked to his doorstep. I pushed open the door to Thomas's place but the door was already cracked open. I found it weird but then I brushed it off and stepped inside, expecting his usual spotless apartment. My jaw practically hit the floor. The place was a disaster zone.I was so shocked that his whole sitting room was disorganized. Thomas was a neat freak and he would never leave his place that way. His clothes were everywhere like colorful confetti after a party gone wrong. Dirty dishes piled high on the coffee table threatened to topple over. Papers and magazines were all over the floor. It wasn't just messy, it was like a hurricane had swept through.My happy tune died in my throat. This wasn't Thomas. “Something was seriously wrong. Was he sick? Did something happen?” I thought to myself.I knew Thomas was a neat freak and that a big part of what drew me to him in the first place. Opposites attract, you kn

Eddie's POVAfter leaving Chloe with Amelia, I walked out of the house and met my driver, Mr John waiting outside for me. He looked tired and distressed, appearing even more so when he saw me. As he approached me, I wondered what was wrong. John's normally stoic demeanor was etched with worry lines that deepened as he reached me. He cleared his throat, his voice raspy. "Mr. Edwards," he began, hesitating slightly. "There's been… a situation at home."My gut clenched. Mr. John only lived for two things: his wife, Sarah, and their only child, a little boy named Tommy. Tommy was a late miracle child, arriving after years of Sarah struggling to conceive. He knew how precious and fragile their family unit was."What is it, John?" I asked, my voice losing its usual confident edge."It's Tommy, sir," he croaked. "He's come down with a bad case of the flu. High fever, chills... the doctor says it's hitting him harder than usual."My heart went out to him. The thought of a small child battlin

Blair’s POVSandra's words hit me like a ton of bricks. My heart pounded, and tears pricked my eyes. But I blinked them back hard. I wasn't about to lose in front of Sharon, not at that moment. Taking a deep breath, I forced myself to sound calm and asked Thomas, "So, how long have you and Sandra been together?" My voice might've been shaky, but I hoped it wouldn't show.Sandra cut in before Thomas could answer, "A few months now."Her smugness was unbearable. I snapped. "That's enough, Sandra!" I shouted, my voice tight with anger. "This isn't about you!"But Sandra wasn't done. Her eyes narrowed. "Actually," she spat, "it kind of is. And for your information, if you must know, my mouth isn't stinking. Maybe you should check yours, considering all the nasty things spewing out of it."The room seemed to shrink, the air thick with tension. I clenched my fists, wanting nothing more than to lash out, but I knew it wouldn't solve anything. Instead, I took a shaky breath, trying to regai

Lustful Desire Chapter 207.
Amelia’s POVIt's been a few weeks since Eddie and I had gotten back together. It had taken him only a couple of weeks to convince me to move in with him again, but this time around, it was not as his nanny or his chef, it was as his girlfriend. According to him, he wanted to spend as much time as possible before I had to go back to Florida to resume duty with my agency. Jenna had been slammed with a restraining order along with the promise of a lawsuit if she did not leave us alone. For good measure, Eddie had made sure to properly adopt Chloe as his legal daughter. That way Jenna would not be able to cause us any more trouble.“Babe! Hurry up, we're gonna be late!” That was Edie yelling from downstairs, while I was in the closet in his… in our room, getting ready. Together with my parents, Blair, James, and Chloe, we were all going to a restaurant to celebrate my mom finally beating cancer.I looked down at Chloe who had gotten her hand on my lipgloss and was now putting it on and

Eddie’s POVAmelia's gaze flickered between me and the bustling crowd before she sighed and gestured toward a doorway at the back."Let's talk somewhere else, shall we?"I did not want to have to talk to her. I wanted to be with her at my home, where I could talk to her and have all to myself."Forget the break room," I said, a newfound determination coursing through me. "Let's go somewhere we can actually talk."Amelia hesitated, then shrugged. "Alright," she conceded. "But I do have to finish my shift first."Frustration bubbled up within me, but I knew pushing her wouldn't help. "Fine," I muttered, trying to tamp down on my impatience. "How long?""Just another hour," she replied, checking her watch. "How about we meet somewhere? My place isn't really ideal.""My place is close by," I offered, surprising myself with the boldness. "It's quiet, we can talk there."Amelia raised an eyebrow. "Your place? That wasn't exactly part of the plan, Eddie.""Well, plans change," I said, a play

Eddie’s POV"It was a mistake, Eddie," she choked out, her voice barely audible. "A one-time thing… a long time ago.""A one-time thing?" I repeated, my voice cracking. The image of a younger, naive Jenna flashed before my eyes, a girl I thought I knew everything about. Now, she seemed like a stranger."Who was he?" I demanded with the need to know gnawing at me.Jenna hesitated, then whispered a name I vaguely recognized. It was someone from the film industry, a rising star she'd met during her brief stint in Los Angeles. They had a short fling, a whirlwind romance that ended as quickly as it began.The revelation hit me like a sucker punch. All the doubts I'd ignored, the whispers in the back of my mind, the nagging feeling that things weren't quite right – it all came flooding back with a terrifying clarity. Years of my life were built on a lie. Chloe, my sweet, innocent daughter, was caught in the crossfire of my naivety and Jenna's betrayal.Fury boiled within me, a churning infe

Eddie’s POVThe doctor gave a small smile. "Of course. Let her rest for a few minutes, and then you can go in."As we waited, James explained what little he knew. He'd been picking up Chloe from school when a call came through from the hospital. Apparently, another kid had swerved into Chloe's path while riding his scooter.A surge of anger flared up within me. How could someone be so careless? But the anger quickly dissipated, replaced by a fierce protectiveness over my little girl.Minutes later, we were ushered into the room. Chloe lay propped up in bed, her face pale and drawn, a white cast encasing her arm. Tears welled up in her eyes as she saw me."Daddy!" she cried out, her voice small and wobbly.My heart ached at the sight of her distress. "Hey, champ," I said, rushing to her side and pulling her into a gentle hug, careful not to jostle her injured arm. "It's okay, I'm here now."She buried her face in my chest, her small body trembling slightly. I showered her with comforti

Amelia’s POVThe question hung heavy in the air. Friends? Could we really go back to that after everything that had happened? A part of me longed for the simplicity of our old friendship, the easy camaraderie we'd shared. But another part of me worried that friendship wouldn't be enough. The feelings I had for Eddie, the unspoken desires that had simmered beneath the surface of our relationship, wouldn't just disappear. They would linger, a constant reminder of what could have been.Taking a deep breath, I typed out a reply. "I… I don't know, Eddie. Honestly, I need some time to think. This whole situation has been a lot to process.""I understand," he replied almost instantly. "Take all the time you need. Just know that… I care about you, Amelia. More than you probably realize."His words sent a blush creeping up my neck. Did he really feel the same way? Or was this just a desperate attempt to hold onto me in any way he could? I didn't have the answers, and the uncertainty gnawed at
Lustful Desire Chapter 202.
Amelia’s POVI stared at the message for what felt like an eternity, my mind a battlefield of conflicting emotions. Finally, with a shaky breath, I typed out a reply."Eddie," I began, my fingers hovering over the screen, "I… I don't know what to say. Thank you for the money. It means the world to me and my mom. But ...is everything alright? James said you collapsed. Are you in the hospital?" I hit send, the weight of the question hanging heavy in the air. The money, the cryptic message – it all pointed to something more serious than he was letting on.The wait for a response stretched into an agonizing eternity. Just as I started to pace the room, my phone buzzed. It was Eddie."Amelia," his voice rasped through the phone, weaker than I'd ever heard it. "Yes, I'm in the hospital. They're still trying to figure things out, but the doctor says I have Angiina due to stress."My chest tightened. Stress. The word echoed in my head, a stark reminder of the turmoil I'd left him in. "Eddie,"
Lustful Desire Chapter 201.
Amelia’s POVI knew that there was no way that he and Jenna had actually been together in the way that she had been insinuating.Jenna had probably been playing another of her manipulative tricks. Regardless, I was exhausted and had had to tell myself that it would be better to end it with Eddie than to be dealing with hurt and frustration every day. James had been giving me updates on both Chloe and Eddie and although I knew I should tell him to stoop so that I could have a clean break, I did not think I had the heart to do so.The rhythmic rumble of the bus engine vibrated through the worn leather seat I occupied. Outside the window, the cityscape blurred into a kaleidoscope of colors, each passing image signifying my new reality. A reality where I, Amelia Brooks, was no longer Eddie Turner's nanny. Today's successful interview meant I could finally stand on my own two feet, financially independent. A bittersweet victory, considering the reason behind this newfound freedom.A soft c

Eddie’s POVHis words held a truth that stung. Jenna's behavior had become increasingly erratic, her possessiveness suffocating. But the thought of facing Amelia, of dredging up the hurt and confusion of that day, filled me with dread.I could not say anything, I could only nod my head in response. Just then, my head began to pound again, this time around in sync with my heart.My vision swam, the pounding in my head morphing into a relentless drum solo. The room seemed to tilt on its axis, James' concerned face warping into a blurry mess. A guttural cough ripped through me, sending another jolt of pain lancing through my chest."James…" I croaked, the word a raspy whisper. My hand reached out, blindly grasping for something solid. My fingers brushed against the armrest of the chair, anchoring me momentarily."Eddie, mate! What's wrong?" James' voice was laced with alarm, his concern cutting through the fog clouding my mind."Head…" I managed, the word slurred. My grip on the armrest

Eddie’s POVAmelia had left a gaping hole in my heart."But will she ever come back?" Chloe persisted, her lower lip trembling slightly."I… I don't know, sweetheart," I admitted, the truth a bitter pill to swallow. A heavy sigh escaped Chloe's tiny lips. "Okay," she mumbled, staring out the window with a wistful expression. The silence stretched between us, thick with unspoken emotions.Reaching over, I squeezed her hand gently. "Look," I began, my voice softened with love. "No matter what happens with Amelia, you'll always be my little girl. And no matter what, I'll always be here for you. Always."Chloe looked at me, a flicker of reassurance sparking in her eyes. "Really?" she asked, her voice a hesitant whisper."Really," I confirmed, my voice firm with conviction. "You're the most important thing in the world to me, you know that?"She nodded slowly, a small smile gracing her lips. For a moment, the tension seemed to ease, a fragile connection established between us.Reaching t
