SELENA'S POV
"10 am, meeting with Mr. Belrowci; 12 pm, marking an agreement to Gacianao Company—"
"Drop the first," he said while fixing his wristwatch. My brow wrinkled from what he recently said, I thought its significant gathering for him.
"Be that as it may, "
"Haru is the person who will haggle with them, he find out about security innovations than me."
I laughed and wound down my iPad, "I thought you have more thought than the your companions?"
He pivoted to me and focuses his finger to my nose, "Shut up, alright? I'm your manager now, and you don't reserve any options to prod me."
I feigned exacerbation and strolled pass him, strolling directly to my office. I get out my telephone to tell Mr. Belworci that Haru isthe one who will arrange him.
"Hello, Mr. Belworci, Mr. Silvenia said that Mr. Konstello is the person who will haggle to you later—"
[No!]
I moved away my telephone from my ears after he yelled.
[Tell Jaxon that he's the one that I really want here!]
"Yet, he previously said no, it's basically impossible to alter his perspective at this point."
[Argh, let him know that I'll converse with his father if he didn't come here.]
"W-stand by."
I strolled to Jaxon's office, he is caught up with perusing a few reports when I came in to his office, he just gazed at me.
"Mr Belworci said that he'll converse with your father in case you're not the person who will make an appearance in the gathering." I mouthed, he feigned exacerbation and loan his arms to get my telephone.
"Hi, Mr. Belowrci..."
I let them talk, I plunked down in the couch while pausing, a sack in the table grabbed my eye.
I get it, it appears as though he previously saw what's within, in view of interest, I opened the sack broadly without his assent.
A costly scent and watch are the things inside it. My foreheads wrinkled when a note had tumbled from the crate of the fragrance.
"Discard it," he said as he gave my telephone to me and return to his seat.
"You're not going there?"
"No, I'm too occupied to even consider going with that gathering."
"In any case, they designated a gathering before that..."
"This is a higher priority than them. Return to your work now, additionally, discard that."
"Why? It looks extravagant to discard it."
"I can purchase that aroma for myself."
I gesture and rose up to leave to his office. I didn't talk any more again on the grounds that I realize he'll simply blow up to me.
Moreover, I didn't toss the gift, I gave it to a male representative that I met while I'm strolling.
"Here," I said as I stretched out my arms to gave him the gift.
His eyes extended in shock, "R-Really?"
I gesture at him and strolled again to my office. I plunked down to my seat while perusing over and again what written in the note.
'I miss you.'
It's conceivable from Maxine, since he said that she returned last month from Australia.
I felt hungry while composing a letter to organizations for the starting of one more model in the following three months, I moped and murmured as I shut my PC and get my tote.
I'm strolling to the cafeteria when a person of workers impeded my direction. My brow wrinkled while checking out them, the person who is hindering my direction, is a similar person who got a waste from Jaxon.
"Howdy."
"Look, I have such countless activities, so if it's not too much trouble, let me pass."
I attempted to pass them however he is truly hindering my direction, he strolled and strolled towards me as I strolled in reverse to keep away from him.
"Did you fail to remember my face as of now?"
I gazed at him, what on earth does he mean? This is really whenever that I first saw him.
"Please accept my apologies, I didn't have any acquaintance with you." He pushed me barely to the divider and cornered by his arms. His eyes are loaded with outrage.
How did I deal with him?
"In the recreation center, that was entirely 8 months prior, however the aftereffect of the embarrassment that you did to me actually lives here." He pointed his sanctuary and heart as he said that.
I murmured, "I truly don't have any acquaintance with you, possibly that young lady who embarrassed you has a similar face as mine—"
He mockingly snickered and punched the divider behind me, "Do you believe I'm a numb skull, huh?!"
I bend my passed on eyebrow to him, he previously squandered my 10 minutes of work. He gets his telephone and played a video, my brow wrinkled when I saw him and myself in the recreation center.
We're talking at first then out of nowhere, I punched him, he gets his home run stick. I smiled, how disgraceful this for him since he beaten by a young lady.
"This? Do you think I'll pardon you from what you did through this?!" he yelled and toss the sack, the aroma bottle broke into pieces.
I inclined and folded my arms, "I'm not a blockhead also to say sorry to somebody like you."
"What?! My companions and pack left me after they watched this video. I additionally lost my employment!" He grasped my neck, yet I just grinned at him.
"Am I the person who record and posted the video? I truly don't have anything to do what occurred in your life after that."
I effectively removed his hands from my neck, that made his companions' eyes broadened.
"You're simply demonstrating that you're truly frailer than me," I grinned at him and tapped his shoulders and strolled straight again to the cafeteria.
I was stunned when Wade is sitting tight for me, and gave an espresso.
"You're so cool there," he said, and strolled with me back to the workplace.
"Much thanks to you."
"Incidentally, did you previously set an arrangement to San-Mi tech?"
"Indeed, I previously worked with it. It's on 23rd, one month from now at 9:00 am."
"You know what, you're acceptable at remembering. Why you didn't take a graduate school?"
I shook my head, "No, I effectively fail to remember anything. A debt of gratitude is in order for the espresso, coincidentally."
He grinned and waved at me, I plunked down to proceed with my work. My psyche replayed what happened before, for what reason did I disregard him, assuming that it's just 8 months prior?
I shook my head again and centered to my work.
"Hey, I purchased a pizza and lasagna!"
I enthusiastically put the food varieties of the table, Britanny as of now accept a cut of pizza as she sat in the table.
"What befell you? Are you debilitated?" I asked to Haxilla, she looked drained and sluggish simultaneously.
She covered her nose when she smelled the lasagna, "Goodness gosh, that so gross!"
She rushed to the sink to vomit, we smelled the lasagna, however it just resembled an ordinary lasagna.
"What's her concern?" I requested to myself and nibble a cut from pizza.
Haxilla returned to the table and moved away the lasagna from her, she drinks such an excess of water that she generally did.
"Is it true that you are debilitated, Hax? Do you need me to call Raven?" Britanny mentioned, however Haxilla shook her head.
"No, he has 27-hour shift now. He's certainly drained after that. I'm fine, it'll be gone tomorr—"
She didn't complete her words and vomited again to the sink, I strolled to her and rub her back.
"When was the last you got your period?"
She quit washing her mouth and gazed at the fixture, "About last month, I think. Why?"
"When was the last time you have intercourse with Raven?"
"What the heck, Selena?! For what reason are you asking me such a humiliating inquiries?" She feigned exacerbation to me and cleaned her mouth.
I inclined to the countertop and saw her, "Be open minded, I'm asking you this since no doubt about it."
"Pregnant? Who is pregnant?" Britanny showed up out of the blue. She covered her mouth and holds Haxilla's arm.
"You're pregnant?"
Haxilla's face doesn't appear to be content from my decision. She strolled back to the feasting region and ate pizza.
"It's basically impossible that I'm pregnant. I can't be, we're not hitched at this point," she said gradually, similar to she's actually engrossing all what happened now.
"Then, at that point, you shouldn't be dynamic in bed, assuming you need to get hitched first."
Haxilla toss a pepperoni to Britanny. I tapped the table and strolled to my space to get my pregnancy test, it's not utilized yet, just in the event that we'll have this sort of circumstance.
"Here, go to comfort room. Just to ensure that you're not pregnant."
She didn't get it right away, yet she gradually got it from my hands and strolled directly to the solace room.
"You truly feel that she's pregnant?" Britanny inquired.
"It's conspicuous to her activities and face."
"Yet, Haxilla would rather not be a mother, right?"
I cycle my finger while thinking, "That is the issue here."
HAXILLA'S POV
I gazed at the pregnancy test that Selena gave me, it has two lines...
I'm pregnant.
I'm pregnant...
My head tumbled to the sink while crying, I would rather not have a youngster, I never envisioned myself dealing with a kid, no I can't.
In any case, I realize how Raven needs to have a kid, and be a finished family. I ought to have told this to him ahead of time, however I'm frightened that he'll leave me after he realizes that I don't need a youngster.
"Hax? Are you OK?" Selena asked as she thumped to the entryway.
I gradually stood up and opened the entryway, "Positive."
Britanny was going to bounce in joy, yet she halted when she saw my face. I strolled to the table and covered my face to my arms.
I'm frightened, I'm truly terrified.
"What's your arrangement now?" Britanny inquired.
I didn't respond to them, the entire table shrouded peacefully. Selena tapped my back.
"You better tell it to Raven."
I heard that they left, that is the time I let out my tears and cried noisily while holding my belly.
How might I advise this to Raven?
How might I let him know that I don't need a kid?
I don't need the most noticeably terrible part will go to our relationship. I quit crying and dialed Raven's number, fortunately, he got the telephone in a matter of seconds.
[Yes, love? Wait, are you crying?]
I swallowed and keep myself not to cried, "Raven, I'm... I'm pregnant..."
[Really?! You're not kidding, love?! Indeed! I'm a father now! I'm a father now!]
I moved away my telephone from my mouth, so he can't hear my noisy cries. How might I let him know my concern without destroying his bliss? Our relationship?
Without a doubt, he can't get it. Indeed, even me, I can't comprehend myself why I disdain for being a mother.
[Love? Are you still there?]
I made a sound as if to speak, I think he better have some familiarity with about it.
"Y-yes, Raven I have something to tell you—"
[When we will go to ob-gyne? You know, for your check-up.]
"Raven, please listen and comprehend me first."
[Why? What's the problem?]
"I... I don't want to be a m-mother..."
[What?!]
"Look, I just—"
[They need me on operating room.]
"Raven—"
He truly hung up the call, I bang my head and punching my belly.
It's all my fault, I disdain this. I disdain this.
SELENA'S POV
"What will going to occur with them now? Raven needs a kid, Haxilla doesn't need it."
I'm playing with my telephone while agonizing over Raven and Haxilla's relationship, it's hard for the two of them to be with in this sort of circumstance.
Britanny stood up and crested Haxilla outside, she murmured, so I likewise top to the entryway.
"It's not successful," Britanny murmured.
I strolled back to my bed and covered my eyes. There are such a lot of things happened to us now, we can't deal with them on the double.
"When this will reach an end?"
SELENA'S POV "How's Haxilla and Raven now?" I didn't address promptly, my lips sulked when I recollect what happened when Haxilla attempted to go in Raven's place. She said to us that Raven became cold with her, she's not used to see that sort of Raven. "All things considered, it will set aside effort for them to make up. Leave them alone, it's their concern," Jaxon gestures at me and we both ride in a similar lift. Where's my extra key of the house once more? I nearly flip around my pack just to find my keys. "What's wrong?" "I can't find my keys," I said with a little dread. He assisted me with tracking down it, we checked out our back and fortunately, we saw it. At the point when we again examine the front, there are two women in our front. "I heard that Ms. Max
SELENA'S POV 2 YEARS LATER Time flies so fast, it's already two years since Jaxon and I became couples. The company also grow just like how our love grow, it's actually become the number one technology in the western. "Cheers! Congratulations!" Everyone is dancing in the beat to celebrate one of the huge success launching of robots that our company made. Can you believe that since the minute it launched, many other small entrepreneurs, especially those café's that don't have enough budget to pay a person to be their servant, bought it without hesitation? It's also surprised me when I saw the selling chart, I thought my idea can't be part of history of this company. "Selenaaaa! This is your success, come here!" Alexa shouted as she's excitedly waving her hands. I laughed while walking through the bunch of employees, they're clapping and congratulated me while I'm
HAXILLA'S POV "Oh, what are you doing here?" I asked Selena when she suddenly visited us. She didn't answer me and ran to Hershey's room. "She's sleeping, tired from playing in the park earlier." I explained. She smiled at Hershey and looked at me, "You raised an angel, Hax." I looked at Hershey that peacefully sleeping in her crib, "I actually didn't expect that I'm going to be a mother like this." I walked back to the kitchen to check the food that I'm cooking, Selena followed me and sat at the high stool chair. Furthermore, I pour her a juice and a piece of pie that Raven bought earlier. "How's the feeling of being a mother?" she asked while stirring her juice. I smiled and add some spices before I answer her. "It's hard, but when you saw your daughter and husband smiling at you, everything became easier. I mean, they rem
BRITANNY'S POV "WHAT?!" Haxilla shouted with a slam at the table. "Will you just calm down? You're overreacting." I rolled my eyes on her. She sat down slowly without taking away her eyes on me like an idiot. "When did you discover that?" Raven asked. I sighed, "Last week. We're planning to tell this to everyone, next week, before we flew to Bangkok." "Wait, why are you going to Bangkok?" "We want to stay there for three years, perhaps. Haru recommended that place to us." Wade answered to Haxilla. They sighed and looked at us. Wade and I already talked about it, we will move to Bangkok for our own good, he is scared that Samira will hurt us, the news that we're already married reached her. He told me that it's not impossible for Samira to take her vengeance to me or to our child. We talked more about o
SELENA'S POV "Are you okay, Selena?" I nod at her, "Yes... I'm just thinking, what did we forget to put in our cart." "Ahh, wait. Ahm we already have..." I looked again at the door where Haxilla left with that old woman. Before, I already noticed something strange about their moves, especially to Haxilla, she's the most suspicious one. Ignoring it is the only thing that came to my mind that time, because I always think that I'm just overt thinking things. But, the thing that made me so confused is Raven's mother. We all thought—or I'm just the only one—that her biological mother was already dead. Base on their actions earlier, it seems that they are already living to each other for a long time already, but what is their reason from keeping it to us? To me? If there's a truth that they are keeping away from me, why? What's their reason? Did they hi
SELENA'S POV Only the two of us stood beneath the frigid sky on a snowy December night. He grabs my hands and pulls me in closer. His eyes, like mine, are full of bliss, which I believed could only happen in movies. The butterflies in my stomach began to tickle my entire body. For me, it's a lovely night, and I'm feeling like a princess. He's speaking with his heart rather than his words when he says, "Thank you for coming into my life, Selena." My shaking hands smiled at him as they touched his face. "Thank you for always making my heart warm, even when the weather was so chilly." My eyes immediately closed to his lips' every contact on mine, it was so lovely and pure, as he pushed me closer and grabbed my lips. I felt a searing stab in my back, and my eyes were shaking as I stared at him in shock tha
JAXON'S POV "Oh, you're his secretary?" Mom asked Selena, she just nods. She doesn't seem comfortable around my parents. "Maxine is better and prettier than you, but what can we do? Our son chose you." "Mom!" I yelled at her. She just shrugged while munching her food, Maxine is already like her daughter that's why she's like this, but it's too much. I introduced Selena to them, not to insult her. Selena hold pats my thighs under the table, "I know, many people already said that. But, Maxine and I are totally different, we have different personality and life. So please, stop connecting my name to hers." It's obvious on her voice that she is hurt, but she still managed to smile. Mom ignored her like she didn't hear anything, I hate her for being like this. Dad cleared his throat, "I heard that the company win the last bidding because of you?" he loo
SELENA'S POV "Where's Jaxon Silvenia? T-the victim... of a car accident?" I asked the nurses. My whole body is trembling of fear that he might not be able to make it. "He's in room 526. Second floor, left wing." We run to the room that nurse pointed, "Jaxon..." I whispered as I opened the door, he is lying down with a bandage on his head. I walked slowly, closer to him. My tears can't stop from falling because relief and nervousness, this kind of situation never pass on my mind before, I'm not mentally prepared for this. "Jax... you need to wake up, huh? You need to wake up," I cried on his hand. Britanny rubbed my back to comfort me, we almost got also in an accident while driving to here. "Jaxon?! Oh my God! My son!" Aunt Seriana suddenly pushed me away from his son, Uncle Lerion catched me and assisted me to stand up. Bri
"Wylow! Come here, baby." I wiped Wylow's mouth that is full of chocolate, Haru gave me an extra tissue. "Britanny should be the one who is doing that." He said, I threw the used tissue on his face. "She's busy on preparing the foods." He sat down at my side while fixing Wylow's hair, "If we ever have a baby, she will be beautiful like you or he will be more handsome than me?" I pushed him with all my strength, "Stop that nonsense. I didn't even give you a permission to court me again." "I can court you in bed," he said while twitching his eyebrows up and down. Yuck, he's so disgusting. We left him there, I heard him calling my name, but I ignored it. While waiting for Britanny and Haxilla, I scrolled at my feed. "Their baby is so cute." Maxine posted their family picture for the
BRITTANY'S POV "Drive faster, Wade." I'm praying hard while we're on our way to Selena. I keep on telling myself that nothing bad will happen to her, nothing. She'll be safe while waiting for us. Wade tried to overtake from the cars in front of us. We both became annoyed when the red light appeared in the traffic lights. This shit, we need to get there faster, we don't know what things can Jacob do to Selena. "Jaxon is here already," Haru said when we saw men that are lying on the ground unconscious. I'm a bit amazed on how Jaxon did this all by himself, he's an ace. We followed Haxilla when she suddenly run at the warehouse. We saw that Jacob hitting Jaxon at the other side, while Selena almost lost her voice because of her screaming. I immediately run to her while our other friends trying to stop the men of Jacob. "Get away of here with Jaxon,"
SELENA'S POV "Do you want to have a wine?" Jacob asked me while holding a bottle of wine and two wine glasses. I smiled at him and get one wine glass. We are quiet while appreciating the beauty of the stars at night and a tasty wine. It's been a while since I felt this kind of peace, it is so satisfying. "Are you feeling well now?" he asked after a long silence. I nod, "Hm, thanks to you." "That's nothing—oh, wait, someone is calling." When he gets out of the room, I immediately tapped the recording app on my phone and checked the other phone if it's already linked to the other one. Since I found the GPS device at my bracelet, something unsual starting to bother me. His footsteps are getting closer and louder, that's why I just kicked my other phone under the bed because I panicked. "Did you wait for l
HARU'S POV "What is she doing there?" I asked myself when the GPS was at the empty lot, a bit far away from their house. Did Jacob just... Oh, shit! No, it can't be! I immediately get my keys and jackets, rushed to get to my car to go where Selena is. While driving, my heart beating so fast that it can go out of my ribs at any moment, the cold sweats also covered my forehead and palms. "What?" I answered Haxilla call. [Where are you going? Why you're so in rush?] I'm biting now my nails because of anxiety, "How did you know?" [I'm about to go to your house and saw you that you're in rush. I'm actually behind your car now.] A red car is tailing me, that's Haxilla. She shouldn't follow me, she can't see the body of her sister if ever that Jacob did something brutal. That bastard, I should have killed him
SELENA'S POV "You don't need to do that." Jacob appeared at my side and took away the dishes from my hands. He smiled at me that made me pout, he is always smiling at me like it will convince me to do whatever he says to me. I rolled my eyes and continue washing the dishes," I'm fine, okay? It's not that hard." His stares are making hole to my soul, it made me look back at him while my brows are furrowed. "What's the thing with that stare?" I asked him. "What if Jaxon didn't do that thing? Do you think you will be in this kind of situation?" He asked me back that made me shocked and get hit by realization. I smiled, "No one wants it to happen, and he's not the one to blame why my life became like this. It's his parents." Even though my heart literally crushed into pieces when I knew the news about him
HARU'S POV "Where are you going?" Jacob asked as he stopped at my front. I ignored him and continue my walk to Selena's house, he suddenly pulled my arm to stop me again. "What's your problem?! I just want to check if Selena is fine," I shouted at him. He smirked, "She's not that well, so please, go back wherever you're from because any moment now, Selena will wake up." And motioned the way out of this house. I put my hands at my pocket and directly looked at his eyes, "What's your plan?" "What do you mean?" "I know you're planning something, that's why you keep on getting close with Selena." He laughed and tapped my shoulder, "You're so observant, Haru. That's right, I'm doing this to get her trust and my business will run smoothly." "What?!" My forehead creased, my fist clenched and any moment from n
ALEXA'S POV "Alexa! Alexa!" I looked at Haven, who is running hurriedly towards me, "What's the matter?" I asked. She showed me her phone, an article is there, Sir Jaxon and Ms. Maxine are the thumbnail of that article, "Read it." She let me get her phone, so I can read properly the article. My eyes widened while reading it, this must be a fake news, there's no way that Sir Jaxon will do it to his wife. "That's fake news for sure," I said and give her back her phone. She stomped her feet while shaking my shoulder, insisting that it's real. "Haven, please, we have so much to do here to believe that kind of shit." "It's real." Konrad suddenly appeared at her back. He told Haven to leave my office, he looked at me while dropping off the documents that I asked him. "Don't tell that you believe it—" "Sir Ja
SELENA'S POV "Nanny Karen? Can you help us—" my words cut when her room is empty. Where did she go? I walked downstairs to ask Haxilla. "Where's Nanny Karen? I can't find her," I asked Haxilla while looking around the house. She throws me a balloons and tapes, instead of answering my questions. "Put some air for that and put it around the banner." "I'm asking you if you know where Nanny Karen go," I repeat my question. "She picked up the others on the airport. Hurry, they'll be here any minute," she said and run to Hershey when she heard it cry. I shrugged and fix the other decorations, while doing it, someone knocks on the door. "Please open the door, Sel. Maybe it's the cake I ordered." As I finished tying up the balloons, I walked quickly to the door, a delivery man holding a box of cake smiled at me, "Delivery for Haxill
THREE WEEKS LATER SELENA'S POV Haxilla runs towards me while holding a bouquet, "I bought you your favorite flowers! Coral roses." "Thank you," I looked at her and smiled, "Do you want to go to Bay Area with me?" She shook her head that made my shoulder to fall, "I'm busy for Raven's surprise party," she whispered and shake my shoulders. "All right, all right, stop it. What are your plans now?" "I'm planning to tell Wade and Haru to come over, a little reunion to be precise. What do you think?" she excitedly asked. "Hmm," I hold my chin and acts that her idea is bad. She holds my arm and pouted at me, she's so cute. No wonder we're siblings. "You don't like it?" "Did I say something?" She throws a tantrum, "Just tell me if it's good or bad!" "It's g
