Julia glanced at Sam with anger for a moment and just left beside him. Without caring about his gaze at all. Sam surprisingly watched her action and entered the cabin just to see Edwin jerked on his chair. His expression doesn't look good.Sam frowned to see his boss like this. He shortly walks toward his chair and touches his shoulder with concern."Boss, are you alright." Edwin just nodded and instructed, "Sam, I want to stay alone for now. Please leave." His voice didn't hide his struggling breath.Sam never saw him like this. But he nodded and left his cabin, closing the door behind his back.After leaving the cabin, Sam instantly walks toward the elevator. He wanted to talk with Julia. Why does she talk rudely like that to his boss? Why is Edwin looking out of space all the time after he comes back? What just truly happened? He wants an answer.After arriving at the Elevator door he pressed the button and the door opened for him. He shortly entered inside and pressed the button
"You already come back?" Rebecca felt a little surprised to see Julia already arrived in the afternoon. Julia put the hand purse on the small table and sat on the couch while her mood was still sour after talking with the two ass men in the office and she didn't want to stay longer, that's why she just left the office saying she had an emergency. "What happened?" Rebecca sat on a single couch and stared at her with a questionable gaze. Julia looked at her and gave a smaller smile shaking her head. "Nothing, I just don't feel like working today. So, I made up an emergency lie and got back home." Rebecca nodded. "So, how are you feeling?" Julia asked with a concerned tone.Rebecca gave a gentle smile and replied, "I'm fine, Julia. You can see, isn't it?" Julia smiled and nodded, "Yeah, I can see and I'm glad." Julia can notice that there is no puffiness at all in Rebecca's eyes. She didn't cry. It means she's telling the truth to her. Rebecca felt something was off with Julia.
"When I learned something was going on between you and Sam. I was happy. Because I know Sam is a good guy and he will make you happy. I can see how your eyes brightly smile whenever you get a text from him." Julia bit her lower lips as her hand clenched."No, Rebecca. But I don't think like that anymore. He hides something big. He hides Edwin's truth from you and me. I can't forgive him." Julia's voice filled with disappointment. Rebecca sighed helplessly and shook her head in denial of her words."But I don't think like that, Julia." Julia's brows arched to hear her and she asked, "What do you mean?"Rebecca gave a helpless small smile before asserting the facts."Julia, you are forgetting Edwin is his boss. He is all just doing his duty as his personal assistant and right hand."Julia's face frowned."So, you mean to say he did the right thing to hide that from you and me." Rebecca shook her head and whispered."You are not understanding." "He is just an honest employee for Edw
At Night"Rebecca, you should drink warm milk at least. I saw you eating so little these last few days." Julia stood with glass on the tray in front of her bed. Rebecca agreed with her and thanked her before taking the warm milk glass from the tray."After drinking, just go to sleep and don't think about anything else." Julia's voice filled with softness."Don't worry. I'll only think about my baby from now on. This life got me nothing. But at least I still got something to cheer about." Rebecca touched her abdomen. While Julia nodded and agreed with her. "Now, you should also rest, Julia. You go to the office tomorrow." Rebecca asserted while Julia lightly Humm. Before bidding goodnight to her.Rebecca stared at the ceiling with empty eyes as she thought about Edwin and her conversation. The way his eyes looked at her at that time, it almost felt like she was breaking his heart. But in reality, she's the one who gets hurt most. The man she falls for, the same man for her misery. It
"I hope he is already gone," Julia mumbled inside her brain as she unlocked the apartment door only to see Rebecca already awake and now standing in the living room, watching her. "Rebecca?" Julia shrugged. As her mind is a little tense thinking about Edwin. She only hoped he was not down anymore. Rebecca walked towards her as Julia slowly closed the door behind her and showed a fake plastered smile. "Babe, you are still awake?" Julia awkwardly inquired. "Yeah, I felt thirsty, so I just woke up to fetch water from the kitchen but I noticed your room's light on and then checked that you were not inside. Where did you go at this time?" She looked at her and interrogated.Julia's lips were sealed tight for a moment before she made a story. "Ohh..a-actually…I just went for a walk as I could not sleep." She tried to sound chill but Rebecca frowned. Because Julia never does walk at night."Are you sure? You don't hide something?" Rebecca directly inquired.Julia shook her head and said
Rebecca moved towards the window with hectic footsteps to close the window. However when she reached there and forwarded her arms to close the windows. The breeze turned a little heavy as her eyes automatically felt someone's gaze on her, and she knew very well whose eyes those were. This made her feel a burden and too much pressure only to focus on closing the window door because she didn't want to see that person.But her visions could not help and without any sense moved to peek at the guy who was on the opposite side of the road down staring at her apartment window without blinking his eyes. She finally watched him and when their eyes met something moved inside her chest. Even though he is far from her building. She could see he looks a complete mess with his appearance. No one can identify him as a rich billionaire. His neat clean suit is no more on him. His shirt is half out from his waist while half-tucked clearly. His hair completely misbehave while his gaze never left her w
Edwin, without any thoughts, just stared at Rebecca's window with empty eyes. When Sam's car stopped in front of him on the road. His eyes moved to look at the car and instantly realized to whom that car belonged. Sam gets out of the car and looks at Edwin with a stunning gaze while Edwin just silently watches him."Boss?" Sam could only blurt out his name in shock as his boss's misbehaved appearance already made him speechless. He never watches him like this. With his current appearance, no one can say he could be a billionaire empire owner. What he always saw in the past when working with him. Even after drinking alcohol, his boss always maintained his aura and power easily. He didn't show any signs of drunkenness like what he drinks is not alcohol but water. But now seeing him like this, he guesses, people changed or love changed people. After thinking about that. He finally went to approach him.He walked toward him and immediately smelled strong alcohol from his body and clot
As soon as Sam's name pops up on Julia's screen. She instantly pressed the button to read out his message and when she got informed that Edwin finally left. She sighed in relief. "Thank God. He left. I should tell Rebecca about him." After thinking about that, she went to Rebecca's room which doesn't lock, so she instantly entered her room and checked on her where she could see Rebecca standing in front of her window. Julia guessed Rebecca already watched Edwin go. She sighed deeply before making a walk toward her and standing beside her.Rebecca didn't turn to look who entered her room as she knew only Julia was there with her.When they stand together. Rebecca first spoke. "Do you want to say something, Julia?" Her voice was low and calm.Julia looked at her side view and then moved to gaze at the sky. "Yes, I just came to inform you that Edwin has already been sent home by Sam." Rebecca nodded. While Julia continued, "I thought you watched him gone." Rebecca's eyelashes fl
“Rebecca, I don’t want to leave.” Edwin holds Rebecca’s hand as he is standing in front of his car with the driver, ready to go to the neighbouring city for his urgent meeting and to see the land where he will build the new biggest mall ever. He needs to land a deal. “Edwin, I’m fine. You should just concentrate on your work.” She softly smiled. As she understands his stress and nervousness. “But what If you need me or you have pain?” His expression was serious which made Rebecca sigh helplessly. “Edwin, There are still two weeks left for my delivery and you are going for only three days. Nothing is going to happen and don’t forget mom and dad are here with me for 24 hours. Even today Julia and Dad are also coming because of the weekend.” She tried to show him, she is good and surrounded by many people and that nothing could go wrong. “But still I…” Before Edwin could say anything, his mother and dad who were standing beside them finally opened their mouths. “Edwin, Rebecca i
Two months Later,“Mom, where is Edwin, I can not see him anywhere.” Rebecca comes out from her bedroom to ask Mrs Hutson.“Dear, why did you come here, you can ring the bell which is placed beside your bed. It’s not good to walk for too long. You should be tired now, let’s sit on the couch.” Rebecca who was now used to Mrs Hutson’s motherly protective manner only could smile and agreed with her to sit, “Sorry, Mom to make you concerned but I did not find Edwin when I awake from my afternoon sleep, I thought, he is today free and will not go to the office.”Mrs Hutson warmly smiled, “Rebecca, you are right, he is still in the house and not leaving you.” “Then where is he?” Rebecca blinked.Mrs Hutson's expression turned excited as she mischievously smiled and suggested, “Why don’t you look around the kitchen? I think you demanded something from him before your sleep.” There was a big playful smile playing on her lips when she mentioned that.Rebecca's face was surprised, “Mom, I wish
With time, Rebecca adjusted to Hutson Mansion while her father and Julia come as promised every weekend to meet her and do dinner together. Just like every day, Edwin takes Rebecca on a walk and then he stays with her until she falls asleep. But at the midnight, he heard a knock at his door. He frowned and a half awaken open the door, only to realise Rebecca was standing in front of him. “Rebecca, what happened? Why are you awake in the middle night? Do you feel unwell anyway?” He held her hand and asked worriedly. He checks on her belly to see If she feels anyhow pain or anything.However, Rebecca shook her head at his words, “It’s not the case, Edwin.”He felt confused and tried to guess, “Then If you need anything? Or any chance, you can not fall asleep?”Hearing his words, Rebecca bit her lower lips lightly with awkwardness and at last, she held his shirt corner and said embarrassedly looking at the ground, “Edwin…” Her action made him concerned and he touch her shoulders.“Wha
Doctor Clinic“Doctor, how is the baby?” Edwin asked the doctor while Rebecca just joined him after the checkup.“The baby is healthy.” The doctor’s words made both of them smile.“However, the baby’s position is not right for now.” Hearing that Rebecca worriedly asked while Edwin’s expression also turned tense.“Doctor, what do you mean by position?” The doctor looked at their tense expression and immediately explained. “I mean to say, I think normal delivery is not possible in your case. We need to do a C-Section.”“What?” Edwin's forehead knitted.However, Rebecca breathed in relief, “I’m ready for anything. I just need my baby to be safe.” Doctor smiled lightly, “You are brave, Ms Rebecca.” Edwin's concerned eyes turned tender, as he held her hand the next moment, “Are you sure? It’s a big surgery.” Rebecca could sense his worry and smiled warmly, “Edwin, I am always ready for C- Section. Anyway, normal delivery is not possible. So, don’t worry.” Her words made him realise,
Two Months Later“My godson is truly going to be healthy and big. Just look at your belly babes!” Julia excitedly said those words to Rebecca who was standing in front of the mirror to see her big belly growing faster with every single day passed and now she can feel the baby moving inside her.“I think the same, Julia.” Rebecca blushed with happiness as she looked at herself and her baby bump with tender and motherly love carrying in her eyes.“You are soon going to enter the seventh month of pregnancy. How time flies, it’s truly unpredictable.” Julia mumbled as she walked to the bed and sat while Rebecca still saw her belly in the mirror with a big smile. However, she was hearing from her friend also, so she responded with a big smile, “That’s true. I never thought I could enjoy my pregnancy this much at first but now, I can only be excited to count the following days. I’m just waiting for the day when I can finally carry my baby in my lap and pull her or his tender and chubby chee
The next morning“Dad, What are you doing here this early morning?” Rebecca was stunned to see her dad at her door. They met just last night, so she doesn't understand what made him come this early morning again. “My child, I come to take you home.” He responded with a bright smile while Rebecca walked inside and told him to get inside also. “Dad, I already told you last night, I can not go back to that house.” It's not like she doesn't want to live with her Dad. But whenever she thinks about home, she remembers her stepmother and step-siblings.Hearing his daughter's words, Mr Wilson walked to her and touched her head, “My child, I know why you are saying that. But I also came to inform you that I made those bullies leave that house and decided to take a divorce.” Rebecca’s eyes winded, “What?” “Yes, dear, I can not stay with those people who behave like monsters in people's skin.” Rebecca could not believe her dad made taken such a big decision and felt guilty that finally what
Late at night, Rebecca phoned Edward and thanked him for making so many efforts for her and her dad.“Thank you, Edward. You don’t know what I got today.” Rebecca softly mumbled while on another side of the phone, Edwin smiled and responded, “I know, Rebecca, how much you always missed your dad. I can see through you when you talk to my parents every time. I can see there is loneliness which can only be filled by your father.”Rebecca’s lips curled up with a warm expression, as she never thought Edwin noticed that. Yes, that’s true. Whenever she watched Edwin’s parents, she remembered her dad. “I’ll never forget what you did for me, Edwin.” Her gentle tone, which was filled with love, made his heart skip a bit. “This is nothing. I can even give my soul to protect you and our baby.” Rebecca is a little taken aback by his words. Edwin could guess how her expression should be right now and could not help but smile from corner to corner. He will do everything to give her happiness. T
“Dad, You dId not tell me. If you are not in the city, how did you get to know all this true?” Rebecca could not help but ask at last to her Dad. “Dear, It’s all happened thanks to Mr Edwin.” Her Dad smiled in response.“Edwin?” Her eyes filled with surprise. She is truly confused now. How could he know her Dad? How does her Dad know him? Did they know each other before?“Dad… How did you know Edwin?” Her dad's corner lips raised as he responded, “I don’t know him personally If I tell you the truth. But I know he is a tycoon businessman.”“Then how did you meet him or did he meet you?” “He called me personally a few days ago and told me, " If I want to know about my daughter’s whereabouts, he can help me as he knows where you are living.”Rebecca completely paused as she could not believe, he is the one because of him, she met her Dad today.“As soon as he took your name, I just flew back and met him in his office. He told me, "Who is he and what is your relationship with him?”Reb
“I am sorry that I could not keep you safe in your own house. You had to endure so many hardships and face them alone, even though I was there. I know it will not be easy for you to trust me now, but can you give your father another chance again?”“It is my fault that I gave my family a chance to misbehave with you. If I had stopped them many years ago from bullying you, then today you would not have to see this day and honestly, I am very ashamed to be called dad.” Mr Wilson’s tears fell from his eyes which he wiped out and looked at his daughter with a guilty face.Seeing him crying, her eyes also filled with tears and she said in a low voice, “Father, I have forgotten the old things and I have never even given you blame for that, but it definitely pained me that when you didn’t even think for a moment to separate me from yourself even after you came to know the truth and said that from onwards you and I have no relation. Was it so easy for you to break up with me? I just want to qu
