Chapter 9: Chase"Calvin's outside the classroom, Brielle." Adriana sighed before sitting beside me as she crossed her arms in an annoyed way. "I don't even know why he still wants to see you after everything that he did to you. That pighead." She added.I couldn't help but to chuckle when I saw her reactions. This girl's too cute to be annoyed this way. It's rare to see her act like this. It's been days ever since I married Logan Achilles. Everything was going fine, I guess? The company that my father built is now surging up high. Finally, the blood, sweet and tears that he sacrificed for the company that he built is finally back on its track. And this time, I knew for sure that it will continue to surge up high as long as I am tied with Logan, and as long as the company will build its own stronger and new foundation.It will never fall again into the mud, hopefully. It's been days since the brute failed his deal with his...investor which he really did blamed me of. Up until now, w
Chapter 9.1: The InvestorCalvin didn't stop there. He did a lot of things just to prove that he was right all along. That I will come back to his arms because I love him, still. He tried everything just to have me back, because he really did think that he only needs to gain my trust back by courting me everyday.It has been stressing me out, but I couldn't do anything to stop him. I tried to stab and throw him my poisonous words, but he still won't stop. In fact, that made him even more resilient and persistent. He stood by his decision to court me, because he believed that it is the only thing I needed for us to get back together again.The jerk's face is as thick as a whole thesaurus dictionary."I heard you're being courted by your ex boyfriend...again." I turned my head towards Logan. He's now sitting on the bed, leaning on the headboard. The laptop was on his lap and he was busy typing something in it, as usual. Probably about his work again. Or maybe it was his...investor. I
Chapter 10: Dean's Office"So, your husband is fortunately the new investor of our University, huh? And, he even donated a lot of money. Like, a lot of that in our school..." Adi crouched down and smiled at me. She raised her brows alternately like she knew something that anyone didn't, even me. "Tell me, how rich is your husband, really? I searched him in Google one time, and it says that he has a net worth of $190 billion, but another source said that his net worth is actually more than that."I slightly frowned at Adi and then, shook my head. Actually, it quite surprised me to know about his net worth, but at the same time, I already expected that too. His family is already one of the richest around the world, not just in town. It's just that, the Sullivan's doesn't want too much attention that much, so they don't really appear in social gatherings with the other socialites. They value privacy that all the news that comes out in the public were all reviewed by them before they even
Chapter 11: Familiar"Quick! Fix yourself, Logan! Oh my God!" I whispered-yelled at him as I quickly got off from the Dean's table. Everything only sunk in to me right after I heard the Dean's voice outside her own office. And I couldn't almost believe that Logan and I really did had sex inside the Dean's office! Oh my freaking hell!Logan held my hand like he wants me to calm down and be steady, so I glared at him. "What are you doing?" I gritted my teeth. I am feeling so nervous right now, but on the top of that, I feel extremely embarrassed with what happened! This is fucking embarrassing! I shouldn't have just let Logan touched me or kissed me! "I'm gonna have to wipe you first, baby. My juices are all over your legs—""Then make it faster!" I feel like crying as he dropped on his knees and wiped my legs with the tissue he was already holding. I bit my lower lip while looking at the closed door. This is all Logan's fault! If he didn't seduced me, then we won't surely end up li
Chapter 12: HomeFor some unknown reason, I couldn't stop thinking about the woman that I just saw outside the village. Even when we arrived in front of my father's house, which is my house too back then before I got married to Logan, I couldn't still get the lady off my head. I don't exactly know why curiousity started to build up inside my head the longer that I think about the lady. I was sure that I don't know her personally, but there is a familiarity that I felt when I stared at her earlier. And I don't understand why."You're silent. Are you okay, wife?" Logan couldn't help but to ask anymore. He must've felt my awkward silence. Well, I was silent for the whole ride actually, but I was answering some of his questions with a nod. It's just that, I became even more silent when we arrived. We are still inside his car, parked in front of my home. We didn't get out first because he was waiting for me to respond to him. As what I've said, he thought that I wasn't feeling fine toda
Chapter 13: MotherGrowing up without your mother by your side was hard, I admit it. I have never felt what it really felt like to have a mother beside you who's supposed to guide and take care of you as you grow up. I never felt being taken care of by my mother, because she left us, she left me at my very young age.I grow up envious of the kids around me who has their mother beside them. Their mother who send them to the school everyday, kiss them and wish them good luck in school. I want to experience the same feeling that the girls felt whenever their mother braids their hair, and make sure that they're well and neat whenever they go to school. That's just some of the things that I missed as I grow up. I missed of being able to feel that from my own mother.But, you know what? Despite of everything that happened. I grew up still contented of just having my Dad because I know that he did everything for me not to feel like we lack of someone in our lives. Dad worked so hard to lif
Chapter 14: Bond“Thank you so much for giving me a chance to make it up to you, Brielle...” I pursed my lips and nodded at her. Two days after I walked out of that restaurant, I never talked with Logan or my father about it. I was still mad at them for going ahead of my own decision. They just decided for me. They didn’t bother consulting me about their plans, thinking that it would make me happy. But it didn’t, obviously. And that was all enough for me to be mad at them. Logan apologized to me. He realized his mistake and even though he tried to say sorry to me at home, I never really listened. At all. I pretend that I was deaf, because that’s what I always tend to do whenever things get so messed up and I don’t want to listen to anyone but myself.And I am here, right now, in front of the woman who gave birth to me, not to forgive her nor to apologize for how I acted days ago, but to give it a try. She said she’s going to make it up with me, and although I don’t need such, I think
Chapter 15: Stepdaughter"What's your problem, Kiera? You've been so cold to me these past few days. What did I do wrong—""Stop annoying me right now, Logan Achilles, seriously? Stop!" I exclaimed before turning my back at him. "Can't you see? I am making a PowerPoint presentation right now for my project so please, spare me with your shits,"I heard his frustrated sigh behind me. I am now sitting on the edge of the bed. I dragged the table near it, so I could do my project properly. I didn't expect for Logan to come here tonight. I mean, for the past few nights, he started sleeping in the guestroom because he know I was still mad at him. And he, being the most understanding husband that he is, he decided to give me a space again. And the only solution that he found is by sleeping in the guestroom... again. Little did he know, I became more irritated with what he did.Like, why would he do that in the first place? I didn't ask him to do that! I didn't asked him to distance himself f
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
Chapter 71: Shot "What? Cat got your tongue, Brielle? Yes, it's true. I am fucking carrying Logan's child, that's why I am being desperate. My child doesn't deserve to grow up without his father. 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
Chapter 70 The next day, I have to go to the company and take charge again. I can't just stop taking care of it. I still have to do my duty as as the new handler of my father's company. 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
