“Hello?" Her sleepy voice resounds annoyance and confusion as she receives a call in the morning, waiting for a response from the opposite side.“ Your voice sounds sexy. Had a good sleep?" the person replies.“ Yeah. Thanks to you, now it's disturbed." Her eyes still shut with an irritated frown.“ Sounds angry. How are you, Charlotte? It's been a while since we met!" Now Her eyes opened with furrowed eyebrows. She checked the caller ID but got no information in her brain about it.“ Who is that?" She asked getting up slowly“ We met before. Did you forget? On the subway!" “ What subway?" she questioned out of confusion“ C'mon! Charlotte! You are hurting me." The voice gets deeper and creepier.” I don't know what you are talking about. But I don't have time for this. Thank you!" She said almost hanging up on him.“ I am watching you, Charlotte. Hope we meet soon. Anyway, Isn't your husband Edward Rodriguez? He has a meeting with JK Company today." Now, Charlotte's brain sent her
“ You should have come to me directly after this brat made you feel bad. I would have taught him a lesson." Mrs. Rodriguez glared at her son and holds Charlotte's hands with care and love. After knowing that, Charlotte left Edward because of his being with another woman. She confronted him despite being his mother.She can't take the side of her cheating son who did something immoral. But she knew that Edward can never do something. At least he would have a solid reason for doing such a thing. And she kept waiting until the Truth unfold.“ It's okay. Mom. I should have asked for an explanation as well. I didn't think properly and acted out." She replied, smiling at Edward.” I know. I know. Stop being so loving wife. He is going to get punishment for everything anyway. But Butler said there has some happy news. I didn't understand what it is. Can you tell me now?" His mother asks not exactly knowing. Edward informed Butler only about this matter.“ Well, Mom.." Edward holds her han
“ You little Witch! How could you leave me? How could you not call me again? I thought it was my fault that I didn't respond to your call and you left for good. I will kill you!” Sandra hugs her tightly. She knows her best friend can endure everything but seeing her lover with someone else makes her weak. But she didn't know that she would try to avoid it instead of facing thisBut watching her return, mixed emotions of sadness and happiness washed over her face.“ I am sorry. It was a stupid act. I know that. Anyway, I heard you are going to marry my brother-in-law. That's so much progress, Sandra!” She winks, breaking the hug.“ Well, It's. It's just. I thought about Suzy and I think I should give it a try. Nothing else. Nothing else!" Her face turns red as she kept trying to make it a normal matter but she got a teasing laughter from Charlotte.” Seems like we will be family like you said. My brother-in-law is a good person. Don't need to be shy, Sandra!”“ Shut up! Tell me why y
Both of them are silently staring at the monitor as the sound of heartbeat has filled up the room with thousands of love and care. Edward's hand tightly wrapped her arm, as he is lost in the reflection of the fetus. His palm is sweating vastly which caught Charlotte's attention.She turns her head to him, smiles brightly, seeing how profoundly he is looking at his baby. His mood has lit up now. Earlier, even after apologizing, he kept silent and she respected his silence. She is the one who to blame and she needs to get punished for hurting him like that. “ It's our baby!" she mutters in a soft tone, touching his hand which is squeezing her hand. Edward's eyes shift on her from the monitor. The bloodshot eyes are still in, but now, it's moistened with the tears that subconsciously gathered in his eyes. “ Thank you!" A big smile spreads over his face, illuminating his happiness all over his face. His eyes are screaming the happiness that he is now.Charlotte pulls his hand and gent
” Charlotte's eyes open when a calming melody hits her eardrums. Tilting her head towards the noise, she gives her attention there. However, her eyes widely open when reality hits her sense. She isn't in her room.Scanning the entire room, with a pale and bloodless complexion, she wraps her arms around her Belly and gets up. Her attention once again goes out of the transparent door and she heads towards it. Pushing its one part, she in a quiet step walks in on the corridor. To amaze her, she finds the wild ocean is roaring with its dominance and the salt breeze makes her close her eyes with peace. When the breeze makes her hair dance, she grabs them tight and looks around carefully. The fear of being kidnapped by that stalker who has been calling her clenches her heart. Being breathless, she slowly scans the entire area. The penthouse doesn't look like a public hotel but a private property. The interior and exterior design clearly announced its luxury with no doubt.” My kidnapper i
“ I will be there as soon as possible!" Edward hangs up on his mother when she called him in the early morning. Charlotte's eyes open with a frown when she hears Edward talking with someone.His expression shows concern about something which forced her to ask what happened.” Someone set fire to our fabric storehouse. I need to go. You stay here. My guards will be here until I return. And, I will take you home!" he said grabbing the shirt and planting a kiss on her forehead. Charlotte gets up in a hurry and tenses about it ”Shall I come with you?" “ No. You better stay here until I return. And don't worry about it so much!"Giving an assuring smile, he walks out with big steps. Charlotte's eyebrows knitted with sadness. Somehow her instinct is telling her, she knows who did it but she wants to shrug. They won't go that extreme. Wearing her pajamas, she walks out and looks down to the lobby where she can see Edward rushing out. Somehow, her heart is being on uneasiness. She doesn't
Next day.“ Boss. Someone sent two billion dollars into our company's fund. We couldn't able to find the sender's information!”Edward's eyes go to Joy who storms inside. Stop penning down to the files, he gives his attention to Joy properly to understand what he just said.“ What are you talking about?" Edward asked to confirm what he heard.“ Someone sent two billion dollars into our company's fund. No information about sender!" he repeats the same line.Two creases appeared between his eyebrows. Nobody knows about this information since he kept it secret from everyone except for Joy. Even there has no thought to tell about it to his parents. He doesn't want them to feel pressured by this matter.” Don't use it until you find any information. Someone can set another trap by this. We will handle it by ourselves!" He said closing the files. What he hates more is owing to someone. Since the sender is trying to keep their identity close. He doesn't want to bring trouble just for this cr
Placing the bouquet on the nightstand, A warm smile spreads over his face as he notices Charlotte is sleeping curling into a ball. Sitting on the edge of the bed, his hand reaches out to her head. Gently stroking, he removes the strand of hair which is covering her half of face.Wiping the droplet of sweat on the nose, he kisses her forehead, admiring her sleeping beauty. “ So beautiful!” he whispered admiring her oily face, the messy hair, and the heavy breath which caresses the pillow that she is hugging.Lying down next to her, he chuckles softly seeing how she is burying her face on his pillow. ” An adorable kitten!" Pulling her into his embrace, he gives another peck on her forehead. It gives him the happiness that makes him fulfilled and satisfied with the life he is leading. His cold hand goes to her lower abdomen, he caresses the invisible baby while burying his face on her neck.But because of his movement, Charlotte turns toward him, slowly opening her eyes. Since she is
