Sonia

I sat at the dining table with Jay, scrolling through a report that Tara sent me on my phone.

There is a presentation coming up next week and I need to prepare for it since this will be my first presentation.

"Good morning, ma'am." Caro greeted me with a bow before serving the breakfast.

“Mommy, I forgot to tell you something yesterday,” Jay's cheerful voice jolted me out of my thoughts.

“Hmm? What is it?” I asked, glancing at him while still scrolling my phone.

“I saw Mr. Ethan at school yesterday,” Jay said casually, smiling as he took a bite from his toast. “He even bought me ice cream!”

My heart raced as the words hit me like a bolt of lightning. My hand trembled and my phone nearly slipped from my fingers.

I slowly looked up at him, my chest tightening. “Who did you say you saw?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.

“Mr. Ethan,” Jay repeated, smiling innocently. “He was really nice, Mommy! Our teachers even said we look alike and I told them he's my father!

    Chapter 26Celine I stormed out of Ethan's room with rage. I still couldn't believe that Ethan would reject me after all the effort I put in. I stepped into my room and slammed the door so hard it shook the wall, my whole body trembling with rage. How dare Ethan turn me down after everything I’ve done? The humiliation burned like fire in my chest. No man had ever rejected me before, and I won't allow Ethan to be the first. "Ahhh!!!!" I let out a furious scream, grabbing a vase from the table and smashing it against the wall. The Pieces flew in every direction, but I didn’t care. I feel like I am going mad. I grabbed a pillow next, tearing at the fabric as if it were the source of all my problems. My breathing was heavy, and tears of frustration stung my eyes. How could Ethan turned a beauty like me down? Is he not a man!! Gush!! Suddenly, the door creaked open, and two maids rushed in. They gazed at me in shock, their wide eyes darted between me and the mess I had made. “Ma

    Sonia I left my lawyer's office with my heart heavy with worries. The thought of losing Jay made my heart ache with pain but it seems there is nothing I can do. I have to tell Jay the truth before he hears it from Ethan. I stepped into my car and allowed my tears out while squeezing my chest which was burning with pain. I never thought this day would come. The day when I have to share Jay with Ethan, the man who doesn't hesitate to throw us out because of a woman. "Ahh!!" I groaned, wiping my tears. No one understands the pain of losing a child better than the mother.I drove to work feeling completely drained. My mind kept replaying the events from earlier. The thought made my heart ache, but I pushed it aside as I walked into the office building. I smiled faintly at the receptionist as I passed, though I barely saw her. My head was a mess, my heart even worse. By the time I reached my office, I felt like I was carrying a mountain on my shoulders. I dropped my bag on the desk

    Sonia Jay turned to me, his small frame trembling with anger. His voice, which was usually soft and filled with love, was now cold and sharp. “Leave my room,” he said firmly, his words cutting through me like a blade. My heart sank, shattering into pieces. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. “Jay, please,” I pleaded, stepping closer to him. “Just let me explain.” But he shifted back, his face hardening as he pulled his arm from my grasp. “Don’t touch me,” he said, his voice trembling with a mixture of anger and pain. “I’ve been suspecting it for a while now but I wanted to hear it from you." His voice broke as tears fell down his cheeks, breaking my heart into pieces. What! What does he mean he has been suspecting it? Does it mean he knew all along? "How do you mean, honey?" My voice trembled, "You know Ethan was your Dad?" "I just felt it," He shrugged his shoulders with a bitter smile, "The way I feel calm around Mr. Ethan was unusual and whenever I look at him... it i

    Sonia “Sonia, what’s wrong?” Alex asked, his voice laced with concerns as he hastened his pace towards me. I opened my mouth to speak, but no words came out. Instead, tears kept pouring uncontrollably out of my eyes. My body trembled as I stood there, unable to stop myself. “Did something happen to you?” He questioned, taking my hand. But I couldn't respond, I just nodded, wiping the tears that had blurry my vision. Without hesitation, Alex stepped closer and pulled me into his arms. “It’s okay,” he whispered, his voice calm and soothing. “Let it out. Whatever it is, I’m here for you.” He said, stroking my hair. I clung to him, my tears soaking his shirt. The warmth of his embrace felt like the only thing holding me together. For the first time today, I didn’t feel completely alone. After a moment, I managed to pull myself together, though my chest still ached. Alex pulled back slightly, his hands resting on my shoulders as he studied my face before wiping my tears with the

    Sonia Tears of agony blur my vision as I searched everywhere for the spare key to Jay’s room, my hands shaking with panic. The thought of something being wrong with him was tearing me apart. I couldn’t think straight. "I thought I kept it here," I tremble, my heart heavy with fear as I couldn't remember where I kept it. Quickly, I opened the drawer to check if it was there but out of nowhere, I felt small arms wrapped around my waist from behind. I was startled and jumped in fear, holding my chest which was pounding rapidly. "Who is that?" I turned around quickly and I was stunned when I saw Jay standing with tears streaming down his face. His red, swollen eyes broke my heart into a thousand pieces. “Jay… Jay, my boy.” I whispered, dropping to my knees and pulling him into my arms. He clung to me tightly, crying hard against my chest. "Mommy," He whispered, his voice cracking with tears. “I’m so sorry,” I choked out, stroking his back. “I never wanted to hurt you. Please

    Ethan"Those fools have the guts to order me to leave the estate just because Sonia tells them to!" I groaned, My jaw tightened and I felt my chest burning like fire.I gripped the steering wheel, my heart pounding with frustration as I drove away from Sonia’s apartment. How could she do this? How could Sonia ask the security to throw me out like a common criminal? And worse, how could she keep me away from Jay, my own son? I was happy when I saw them this morning and for the first time in years, I felt hope. Seeing Jay smile at me, running into my arms, it was a moment I had dreamed of for so long. He looked so happy, so innocent. I thought maybe, just maybe, I could start to rebuild what I had broken but I was heartbroken when Sonia told me that they don't need me in their life. I knew she was hurt. I mean, she couldn't just accept me into their life like that after all these years, so I decided to leave, to give her space. When I got to work, I couldn't concentrate and I de

    Celine I woke up and found Ethan lying next to me. My heart raced with excitement as I smiled to myself while gazing at his handsome face. Finally, it has happened! Ethan had finally slept with me. I couldn't contain my joy. Soon, I would have everything I wanted, if I got pregnant and Ethan would have no choice but to marry me. "Wow!" I giggled, rubbing my tummy that will soon carry Ethan's child. You know, last night still felt like a dream to me. I can't believe this. I only came into his room to ask him for some shopping money last night, but when I saw him drinking, I knew it was my chance. Ethan was not the type that could handle alcohol and I was shocked when I saw him drinking. I don't know what might have prompted him to drink but whenever it was, I was grateful. It wasn’t long before he started acting strangely. When he told me to leave, I ignored him and stayed as I knew that it was my only chance. He started acting strangely and when he looked at me, his entire d

    Ethan."Shit!!!" I groaned, pacing forth and back in frustration. I can't believe this. The fact that it was Celine I slept with last night turned me apart. I had felt something was off, but I ignored it. I should have known. Her body was different, the kiss, the scent but I was too drunk to even think. I groaned, my frustration boiling over. This is a mistake, a huge one and now I felt like a cheating husband. "Gush!!!" I needed a shower, I needed to cool the storm brewing inside me. I made my way to the bathroom, my blood boiling with anger. I stepped into the bathroom, turned on the hot water and scrubbed my body as if the water could wash away everything I had done. But it didn’t. It was still there, hanging over me like a dark cloud.After a long shower, I got dressed, still feeling dirty, still feeling angry. As I walked into the living room, making my way to the entrance, I saw Celine with a smile that made my blood boil. “Ethan,” she called with a smile, “I made breakfa

    Sonia"Ms. Sonia. You are here?" I heard Tara's voice from behind as I was stepping out of Alex’s office. I spun around and spotted her hurrying toward me with her face lit up with excitement. “Congratulations, Ms. Sonia!” she smiled brightly, practically bouncing on her feet. I frowned, completely confused. “Congratulations? For what?” Tara grinned wider. “Oh, come on! It’s no secret anymore. Everyone in the office knows you’re dating Mr. Alex.” I froze, my stomach flipping. “What?” Tara nodded with excitement. “The news is all over social media. People are saying you two make a nice couple.” I felt my heart pounding in my chest. I didn't think about the effect of my words earlier with the reporters as I never knew it would turn out like this. Now, it seems like the entire office now believes that I was dating Alex. As if to confirm Tara’s words, a few passing staff members greeted me with extra respect, their smiles a little too wider than normal. Whoa! This is getti

    Sonia "Oh my goodness!" I exclaimed, staring at my phone with my heart pounding as I scrolled through the trending news online. Ethan and Alex were all over the internet. Videos of their fight had gone viral, and the comments were cruel. How could Ethan fight with Alex? What happened between them? I had been trying to reach Alex since last night but he wasn't picking up my calls or responding to my messages. The thought of him ignoring me made my stomach churn with anxiety. I needed to hear his side of the story before I even thought about speaking to Ethan. Ethan has called me several times this morning but I ignored him. I am not ready to listen to his excuses until I hear the truth from Alex. **********The following Monday, I went through my normal routine of dropping Jay at school before driving to the office. I arrived at work, feeling a knot of tension in my stomach as I parked at the parking lot. As soon as I stepped out of my car, I was shocked by the number of r

    CelineI woke up to the faint beeping of machines and the smell of antiseptics. My body ached, and I could barely move. I blinked my eyes slowly as I tried to focus and that was when I realized I was in a hospital room. Then, the memories of the accident came rushing back, giving me a headache. I tried to sit up but pain shot through my head and stomach, forcing me to lie back on the bed with a groan. The door opened and a doctor walked in, smiling warmly. “Oh, you’re awake,” he said with a smile as he walked to my side. “What happened?” I whispered, my throat dried, my voice barely above a whisper. "I need water," I said, holding my chest that was burning. “You were involved in an accident,” he explained, handing me a glass of water. “But you’re stable now. With a little rest, you’ll be discharged in a couple of days.” I nodded slightly, trying to process his words as I gulped down the whole glass of water. Then, a terrible realization struck me. Something felt... wrong.

    Ethan “Ethan! Ethan!!" Celine’s angry voice jolted me up from sleep. I groaned, pulling the duvet over my head, hoping she would go away but no such luck. “Ethan!” she yelled again, louder this time as she barged into my room. I sighed and sat up, rubbing my face as I adjusted my eyes to the morning light. Celine walked in and stood by the bed with her phone in her hand while glaring at me as if she was ready to explode. “What is it, Celine?” I muttered, my voice heavy with irritation. “What’s your problem this early morning?” She scoffed, her eyes narrowing. “My problem? Ethan? That’s what you’re saying?” “I don’t have time for this,” I replied, waving her off as I swung my legs off the bed. “You don’t have time for this?” she snapped, stepping closer. “You’ve been ignoring me and your unborn child for weeks while you go around town chasing anything under skirt?” “What nonsense are you even talking about?” I asked, trying to keep my temper in control. "Okay, you wi

    AlexI stood up, wiping the dust off my clothes as my body ached from Ethan’s punches. My lip throbbed, and the taste of blood lingered in my mouth. But the worst part wasn’t the pain I was feeling, it was the humiliation. I looked up and saw the crowd gathered, their eyes fixed on me like I was some spectacle, making my anger burn hotter. Ethan dared to humiliate me like this? In public? I hissed in pain as I pulled out my handkerchief and used it to wipe the blood on my lip before throwing it away. The way the crowd gave me a pitied look made my blood boil with fury. “What are you all staring at?!” I snapped, my voice loud and filled with anger. The onlookers quickly scattered, some pretending they hadn’t been staring in the first place. Bunch of Cowards. I turned and walked toward my car, each step heavy with anger. I was about to open the car door when my phone buzzed in my pocket. I frown before pulling it out. Sonia?My heart skipped a beat when I saw Sonia's na

    Alex“Ethan, I didn’t betray you,” I said softly with a smirk which only annoyed Ethan. “I’m only carrying out the instructions you gave me.” Ethan’s face twisted with rage. He stepped closer, his voice rising with anger. “Instructions? Do you think this is you helping me? I trusted you, Alex. I thought you were my friend! Instead, you stab me in the back?” I looked straight into his eyes even though his words made me shiver. “I didn’t betray you,” I replied but I could feel the tension in the air thickening. Ethan scoffed and took another step forward. “Don’t play innocent. I’m trying to win my wife back, Alex. Sonia is mine, and I won’t let you interfere. Stop trying to get close to her and Jay? Stay away from my son!"His words hit me like a punch to the gut, my chest fuming with anger. I clenched my fists as I couldn't keep my calm face anymore. “Do you hear yourself, Ethan?” I said angrily. “You’re the one who brought me into this. You called me and begged me to help you

    AlexWhen Sonia told me Jay was with her at the office, I felt relieved. I could only imagine how scared she must have been earlier, but knowing they were now together calmed me a bit. I decided to stop by a nearby restaurant on my way to the office. Jay has been at school all day, and I figured he might be hungry. The Sonia I knew too well wouldn’t leave the office until every task was complete. It was one of the things I admired about her, her dedication, but it also worried me. The stress is becoming too much for her. I walked to the counter and ordered food and ice cream. Sonia has told me how Jay loves ice cream and I knew Jay would be happy when I gave him. I placed the food on the passenger seat and drove to the office. As I drove, my thoughts drifted to Jay. Things haven't been easy with him. He keeps his distance whenever I visit Sonia as he barely speaks to me unless it is necessary. I understand that he wasn't used to me but it still stung although, he started ope

    Ethan I went back to the office to attend to some paperwork before going home in the evening. As I was driving home, my thoughts shifted to Celine. Ever since she told me she was pregnant, I have been avoiding her. Staying late at work and even sleeping in the office, you know, just anything to avoid the confrontation I knew was coming. As I pulled into the driveway, I sat in the car for a moment, gripping the wheel. My heart pounded as I tried to steady my breathing. I knew there was no escaping this anymore. I just have to face it now or never. I sighed heavily before stepping out of the car and as I stepped into the living room, I met her waiting for me. It was as if she knew I would be coming home tonight. I pretended I didn't notice her as I headed upstairs to my room. I could hear her footsteps following me, but I didn’t stop. When I got to my room, I tried to close the door, but she shoved it open and stepped in. “So, you finally decided to come home today huh ?” she

    SoniaI was about to leave my office when the door suddenly opened, making my heart skip a beat. Jay walked in, holding Ethan’s hand. “Mommy!” He called, running toward me. "Jay!" I crouched down and hugged him tightly, relief washing over me. “Are you okay, baby?” I asked, searching his face. “I’m fine,” he said, smiling. My relief quickly turned into anger as I looked up and saw Ethan, smiling at me, standing calmly and relaxed. “What gives you the right to pick up my son without my permission?” I asked, my eyes laced with anger. Ethan frowns before turning his gaze at me. “Jay called me. He said he was still at school and couldn’t reach you. I figured out you were busy, so I decided to go get him.” “I don’t need your help,” I snapped. “I’m perfectly capable of taking care of my son.” Ethan’s calm expression hardened slightly, you could see he was fighting so hard to control his anger. “Sonia, Jay is my son too. I have every right to pick him up, especially if he’s wai
