Chapter 44: Efforts

Did he thought that I won't notice the hickey that I saw on his neck? What does he takes me for? A stupid? We both know I'm not, and I know that he's aware that I already saw the hickey.

I keep my mouth shut. I didn't asked him about it. I stayed silent while I continue to apologize to him by cookimg him his favorite food everyday. I barely even go to school because I made sure I can be able to make lunch and send it to his office too, but he ignored it all.

But I am Kieran Brielle Henderson Sullivan, and I won't easily give up just like that.

"What's happening to you, Brielle? You're barely even going to school now? It's our last year in college and you know that you can't fail this, please..." Adi's pleading voice woke me up from my deep thinking.

We're inside a café now. There's no class, so we decided to to meet each other here, so he can pass me the notes about what we took for those five days that I was absent.

    Chapter 45: Too Late"Are you okay, brat?" I chuckled and smiled at my father's voice, asking if I am okay... or not. Good thing that we're only talking on the phone, and that he have no plans of visiting me here, so he wouldn't see how devastated I am knowing that my husband, Logan, cheayed on me.Wow. And here I am thinking that he's different from Calvin, huh? Turns out, he's also the same. He even had the huge impact on me. Maybe because I truly love Logan. Amd it's true, that if you love the person so much... it would hurt you to let them go too. You always hesitate to let them go even though they're slowly breaking you into pieces. That's what I am feelikg right now. I don't know what to do. I've done everything for him to forgive me. But, I feel like all my efforts are useless, because he doesn't care anymore. He doesn't even spare a single glance with the things that I do for him.Was I really too much for... letting my emotions control that time? But I grovelled, I am still

    Chapter 46: Divorce "Kieran Brielle! Baby, wait! Please, let me explain!" Logan shouted through the corridors earning a stare of confusion from his employees. Of course, who wouldn't be confused, anyway? I gritted my teeth as I walked faster, but I guess, his legs was too long that he was able to reach me. He held my wrist, but I quickly shoved it away as I faced him angrily."Explanation, you say? For what? For what I saw? Oh no need, Logan. I don't need no explanation from what I saw. It was already clear to me. Clear as crystal that you fucking cheated on me with that lowclass bitch. Really, Logan? Anita? How ridiculous how much you've reassured me about her back then, and look where it got you?"Logan shook his head. His eyes are pleading for me to let him explain, but no. I don't need any more lies from him."Baby, please, please... listen to me—"I scoffed and tilted my head. "No, I won't. I won't ever listen to you and your stupid lies again.

    Chapter 47: PainLogan tried to chase for me, but I was too quick to get inside the cab that really waited for me outside the mansion. I was glad that the driver waited, or I won't be able to leave. I was crying while I was inside the cab. The driver was the only witness how much I cried inside his cab. I'm glad that he's kind too. He even offered me a tissue to wipe my tears. He also turned on the radio and played it in a medium sound, maybe he wanted to give me privacy so I can cry my heart out.I was really thankful with the driver. My heart slightly calmed down after I cried a lot.When the cab stopped right in front of our house, I immediately took my pouch to pay for him, but he declined it."It's free, Ma'am."My lips parted as I blinked my eyes. I smiled softly at him and shook my head. "No, Sir. I'll pay. I'm sorry that I cried inside your cab and—""It's fine, Ma'am." He smiled softly at me. The wrinkles on his forehead was very visible, and I can see through his face that h

Who would even miss a cheater like him? Me? No way. I wish I could easily say that like he doesn't matter to me anymore, but the most unfortunate thing is... I still care—no, I still love him. That's the most appropriate thing to say. Crying before going to sleep became my hobby these days. I just couldn't help it. I love him, and it was normal for me to bury that pain inside my chest 'till I get numb from it. I haven't still told Dad about what's going on between me and Logan. He knows that I am pregnant. It was days ago and he was so happy to know it. He even pushed me to fix whatever is going on with me and Logan. And I wonder how would he react once he found out that his favorite son-in-law just cheated on me with my stepsister. I bet he wouldn't be pushing me to fix my marriage with Logan.

    Chapter 49: Life AloneI left. After I withdrawn half of Logan's money on his bank account. It was kinda my revenge for him for what he did. I know that it wasn't enough after all the stress that he caused me, but at least I have money that's enough to take care of my baby's needs. Dad knew about my plan of leaving and he didn't tried to stop me. I didn't told him about where I am going, but I said I'll be safe. That's the only thing that I can promise to him. I sighed deeply as I closed my eyes tightly, savoring the fresh hair that's hitting my face. I opened my eyes again as I watched the beautiful sun in front of me. It was slowly rising now, and it was such a scene to behold. Not only that, the balcony where I am standing is facing the beautiful shore of the Island too which is something that I really love about my new place.It was a good thing that I was awaken with another wave of nausea, because I get to witness this beautiful scene in front of me.

Even though I couldn't see him right now, I can still feel and hear the longing and sadness in his voice as he spoke. And I couldn't help but to feel sad too.I know that Dad missed me. I know how much he wanted to go here and follow me, but sadly, he couldn't leave the company. He doesn't really wanna talk about it that much, but I know that there's something wrong."Dad, are you okay?" The other went silent for awhile before I heard his evil laugh. It was like he was teasing me. I know it. I seldom show him that I am worried with him too, so he will always take it a joke. And I don't know if I should be insulted with that or what."I am serious right now, Kier Henderson." I rolled my eyes. I heard my father coughed, like he was pretty insulted with the way I call him with his name too."You're at it again, brat." He mutter

    Chapter 51: Momma's Bubba Motherhood. It was something that I didnt expect to happen with my age, but it is something that I am really thankful of today. I watched Kierro as he played on the mat with his toys that I bought him yesterday. He was with his untie Janna. It was all toy cars. I don't know, but this young age of him, I can already see the fascination in his eyes whenever he sees his toy cars. He loves cars so much."I'm so proud of you, Brielle. You did it." I glance at Jon beside me. He was also watching Kierro silently. We're inside the kitchen, and we're supposed to prepare some foods to eat, but here I am. I just found myself watching my son, playing with his Aunt while I was leaning on the kitchen's doorframe."Thank you, Jon... And we both know that I wouldn't have done this all without you guys. You all played a huge role in our life as I raised my son alone." I said softly, because it was true. Without him, Janna, Tata Nolan and Nana Celia, I don't think I would b

He just arrived today, and it's heartwarming to see my son and Daddy finally met after almost two years since Kierro was born. Well, we always video call with Daddy, but it's s lot more different seeing him in person. I miss him so much. My Dad. I sighed. Compared to the last time that I saw him, he looked... older now. Some of his hair were already white. The wrinkles on his forehead are very visible now, and I couldn't help but feel sad about it. I don't like seeing Dad this... old, but I know that it's inevitable to happen. And whether I like it or not, he will really turn old.Almost two years of not seeing my father personally, it now shows how it was hard for him to be fighting for the company alone. I felt guilty for letting him face everything alone, but... I wasn't ready too. I wasn't ready to show off after that heartbreaking moment for me. I couldn't handle anot

    Chapter 75"Are you sure you're going to watch, Miss?" My heart pounded for no reason as I stared at the file that Matias found about Anita. I only nodded shortly, even though my heart was pounding so hard for some reason. I feel nervous. Matias let our a deep sigh before clicking it. The video played and all that I did was to freeze on my seat as I continue to watch the scene in front of me. It was a scandal of Anita with a man. It was familiar. He was familiar to me. I know that physiques! I know it and I know that I'm not wrong!I bit my lower lip and signalled Matias to stop the video. He did, and I immediately looked away."I've seen enough today, Matias." I said, touching my forehead and slightly massaging it. "I... want to go home."That's what I did. Matias quietly sent me home with the bodyguards that Logan hired for me. "Are you okay, babe?" Logan immediately asked me as soon as he arrived in the penthouse. Kierro is inside his room with Mateo, probably playing in there.

    Chapter 74So, how could he explain those hickeys I saw on his neck? The red lipstick that saw on the collar of his shirt? How about the times were him and Anita going together was broadcasted to the world? How about those times, huh? The time he spent more on Anita. What was that all? That was all nothing then? "I know you're still doubting me, babe, but allow me to explain everything to you once these are all over, hmm?" My eyebrows furrowed in confusion when I heard him. "Let me handle everything, baby. Please. I just want you and our son to be safe and sound."I am indeed confused with him. I tried to ask him further more, but he refused to answer me. He said that the right time where he'll explain everything to me is already approaching, and all that I have to do is to wait for that moment.Days passed and Logan still didn't allow me to only have five bodyguards everytime I go out for work. Even Kierro, our son, has his own bodyguards which really quite amazes me. Looks like Log

    Chapter 73I woke feeling so exhausted that I felt like my body ran a whole marathon in my dreams. The first that I saw as I opened my eyes was the white ceiling that I have to think again if I'm awake or I'm just really in heaven. I could hair faint voices beside me as I tried to keep my eyes open while observing the surroundings that I am currently in. I still fell sleepy despite of the fact that I just woke up. So I asked myself what really happened?And it hit me. I was ambushed and I was alone with Mateo in the car. I thought it was my end when those people started cornering us while pointing their guns at us, but no. Fortunately, Logan was exactly on time, arriving judt to save me. To save the person that loathes him. I really did got shot on my left leg. It wasn't too fatal, but it was enough for me to be brought in the operating room. Hence, the reason for my weak body now. It must've because of the wound and the medicine that they injected on me. "Momma! You're awake! Momm

    Chapter 72"This is fucking ambush, Miss!" Mateo shouted as I heard the screeching of cars from behind us. Mateo just kept on driving even with gunshots following us behind. I was crying, still as I curled myself on the backseat. I covered my ears when the bullets started penetrating the window. Mateo's cuss kept getting louder and louder. Two black cars were following us while they were firing their guns at us too. I didn't know for how long did I endured the noise of the firing guns, but the next thing that I knew was that our car stopped. A loud screech illuminated as I heard Mateo's defeated sigh. I cried more, knowing that there's a big chance that I won't be alive tonight anymore. It scares me. So fucking much. The death, but this is truly inescapable anymore. I wouldn't be seeing my son anymore. Will he be safe with Logan? Will my baby cry once he found out that his mother died in an ambush? He will. Oh God, Kierro will be sad and frustrated. He will probably blame himself

My baby deserves a father, and that's Logan." I stood still, and I admit that what she said shook my whole world. It made my body cold, freezing for seconds. The anger surged in my system again. The anger for the both of them. For the betrayal that they did to me. If I were the Kierran Brielle that I was used to. The Kierran Brielle who was selfish and doesn't care about anything else. The Kierran Brielle before Kierro came into my life, I would've fucking beat her up into pulp 'till she bleed herself up. But no, I am not like that. If it's true that she's pregnant with Logan's child, then I'm not gonna do anything to harm it. After all, the baby's innocent from his or her parent's betrayal.I am angry. So fucking angry right now, but I don't want to give Anita the satisfaction of seeing i

I have to take care of it, while I'm busy finding out about Claire's real intention too. Logan and Kierro sent me to the company. I didn't want to leave my baby alone with him, but I didn't have any other choice. And besides, Kierro doesn't even want to look at me, and it seems like he already trust his father so much, so I decided to leave him with Logan. When I got inside the office, I immediately received a text message from Logan saying that he's back home with Kierro. He even said that they'll go swimming today which I agreed. I got busy with the papers in the office that I didn't notice the time. It was already 11:30 AM, so I decided to stand up to have lunch since I was already feeling kinda hungry, but when I opened the door, Anita's angry face greeted me. My lips parted before I slowly

    Chapter 69After fetching Kierro, we immediately came back to Logan's penthouse. Logan just let Kierro rest for a bit before he told him he can go to swimming now. Kierro was so excited. He even squealed but when I told him he's not allowed to be alone in there yet, his excitement immediately died down. Oh God. He's just three and I can't let him be left alone there. I wanted to be with him, but not now. My mind is so chaotic. I was thinking something else and I know that I wouldn't be able to take care of him properly if I'm thinking about something else. It was hard and I was kinda guilty for making my son feel sad, but I... just couldn't do it now. Not now. "Why, Momma? Is there something wrong? I'll be careful..." His voice became softer 'till it became like a whisper when he noticed my eyebrows slowly furrowed. "No. I told you not for now, Kierro. We can't go swimming today. I won't let you." I said, full of authority. I didn't wanna use that voice of mine with him, but I wa

    Chapter 68I fell asleep after all the things that we did that night. I enjoyed it. The pleasure is in there and I was more than satisfied. There was no regret after he finally stopped devouring me. I was weak, tired, and exhausted. But still, I was able to look at the clock on the side of his bed table. 4:30 AM. That's how long we craved with each other's touches and kisses. I didn't actually think we will be able to finish doing each other that time. Logan was insatiable. I know his stamina when it comes to the bed. Back when we were together, we will always finish in the morning. The sun already rises that time, but right now was different. I kept on yawning already, so I guess he was just forced to finish what we were doing.It was already 12:30 in the afternoon when I woke up. My whole body was aching and I felt like I just ran a whole marathon. The thing in between my thighs were hurting like hell too. I even felt like a whole bulldozer attacked my insides last night, but mo, i

    Chapter 67The heated moment continued and I don't think I can be able to stop myself anymore from this raging emotions. The throbbing heat in between my clothes only worsened when Logan started planting soft kisses from my lips, down to my neck and to my naked breast. I let out a gasped as I crumpled his hair, slightly pulling it towards my chest even more. I closed my eyes tightly. My head dug deeper on the pillow. The heat in my body is beyond the raging point and that's when I feel like I wanted more from his kisses and touches. Logan captured my right nipple with his lips as he started caressinf the left too, making sure that both are pleasured equally and that none of them were left out. My eyes rolled with the pleasure I felt as I gripped his hair tighter.He sucked my nipple really hard which causes me to moan loudly."Fuck, Logan..." When I felt something in my stomach started to build up, that's when his kisses went down to my stomach. He is really making sure that no par
