"You shouldn't have promised to pick me up! Or you shouldn't have asked me to wait!"Blair shouted furiously at Axel.Axel took a deep breath and let it out. He wrapped a towel around his waist and explained to Blair in as calm a tone as possible."I came to the hospital, and you weren't there. I've also tried looking for the nearest restaurant but need help finding you. I am curious to know how many restaurants I've been to. And I've also tried calling your cellphone, but it's inactive. And finally, I decided to check on you at home.""You're just making excuses! From the start, you intended to avoid picking me up. You're just trying to play me, Axel Barney!""Blair! Blair, wait!" Axel rushed to block Blair's steps from leaving the bathroom."Ah!"Blair suddenly groaned from a sharp pain in her stomach. She held her stomach while leaning against the bathroom wall.Axel was surprised. "What is it? Are you in pain? Shall we go to the hospital now?"Blair just shook her head as she remo
Blair left the restaurant. She was standing on the side of the road, waiting for a taxi. A black car drove slowly until it stopped right in front of Blair.The driver opened the car window.Curious, Blair bent slightly to see who it was."Get on!""Axel?" Blair was completely shocked and panicked.'Does Axel know what I'm doing here? Was the person stalking me from home really Axel's errand? This is too surprising to be a coincidence.' Blair was preoccupied with her own thoughts."Why are you stupefied and still standing there? You're pregnant, and don't be too tired. Hurry up, and we'll go home together."'It would be weirder and more suspicious if I refused, right?'Cautiously and nervously, Blair got into the car. She sat still and just stared straight ahead. Axel brought his lips to Blair's face. The girl closed her eyes and frowned in her seat."What is it? You have to wear a seat belt!" Axel exclaimed.Blair was so embarrassed. She had misunderstood. Blair cleared her throat and
Axel was in his office. He sat uneasily as if he was waiting for someone.Open door.Axel immediately straightened up and put on a cold face. It can be seen from the hands tightly clenched in the middle of holding back the emotions about to explode in his head.Marco and Carlos came dragging a young man in a black jacket and hat. The young man continued to rebel, fight, and curse. He asked Carlos and Marco to let him go.The two bodyguards had no intention of letting him go. They gripped the young man's arms tighter and dragged him to Axel. The young man was forced to kneel in front of Axel.Axel got up from his chair. He stood with his hands clenched and stared at the young man so sharply.The young man was indifferent. He casually massaged his stiff jaw. His face was bruised, and fresh blood was still coming from his cracked lips."Fuck!" cursed the young man. "What do you really want? I will sue you for assault and kidnapping."Axel grabbed something from the table and threw it rig
Axel just came back from jogging. Every morning before going to work, he always takes the time to exercise or just run around the beach.As soon as he returned home, Axel ran into Blair, who was dressed neatly and was about to leave the house.Axel was still pissed off. He also ignored Blair even though he was curious about where the girl was going. Axel went straight to the kitchen and took a glass of water."Axel, I'm going first!" Blair said.Axel almost choked on his drinking water in shock. He waved at Blair without even glancing at her."Go!"Blair stayed in the house and turned to the kitchen to find Axel."What else now?" Axel asked a little curtly. "Did you forget something?"Blair suddenly smiled at Axel as she spread her arms and formed them into a big heart."Axel, I love you so much! I love you as wide as the sky and deep as the ocean!" Blair shouted.She said that while chuckling to tease Axel.Axel glared at Blair, who was deliberately teasing him."My husband, I love y
Axel and Blair sat huddled together on their living room couch. In front of them were a journalist and a cameraman who captured the moment of intimacy."Final question," said the journalist. "Mrs. Barney, do you know Clarissa Jordan?"Axel's face hardened. He had asked reporters not to talk about his failed engagement to Clarissa. Axel looked uncomfortable in his place. However, Blair looked so calm and answered the reporter's question."Yes, of course, I know her. Clarissa is my husband's business partner. Currently, they are carrying out a new area development and revitalization project.""But she and your husband seem close," said the journalist."They are close because they have been friends for a long time. In fact, my in-laws and Clarissa's parents have also been friends for a long time. Axel and Clarissa have been friends since they were in school. I feel grateful because Axel has a good friend. In fact, when we were fighting, Axel often talked about it with Clarissa to ask her
Blair took off her glasses. She was still sitting in front of the laptop at her desk. Several times Blair glanced towards the door and occasionally checked the clock on the wall."It's past midnight. He's not home yet. Even though I repeatedly told myself not to wait for him, I still kept waiting."Blair sighed as she leaned her tired back. She rubbed her growing belly and felt it getting heavier."Oh, you kicked? You haven't slept, honey?"She felt the baby kick every now and then. There was a feeling of astonishment and amusement that coursed through Blair's stomach every time the sensation of the kick came."Are you also waiting for him to come home?" Blair spoke to the baby in her stomach."At a time like this, I like him. However, when I saw how he spoke, I didn't like him at all."Blair shook her head and once again let out a heavy sigh.***Axel woke up in the morning.He sat up straight, holding his throbbing head. After briefly massaging his temples, he glanced around with sl
Blair and Louis had entered the theatre and found their seats. Blair looked really nervous and panicked."Why are they here? Are they really going to start bothering me right now?""What is it?" asked Louis when they were comfortably seated."Oh, nothing.""Do you feel uncomfortable because your friend saw us watching together?"Blair quickly shook her head. "Of course not. Not because of that. It's just that I feel uncomfortable because she keeps telling me that you might be interested in me."Louis secretly smiled. "But, the truth is I am attracted to you."The smile completely disappeared from Blair's face. She turned to Louis and looked at him seriously. "What?"Louis casually replied, "You may not know that I am actually a very busy person. But I'm willing to take the time and ask you to watch it. It's not an easy thing for me."Blair was confused and stuttered. She didn't know how to respond to Louis's words just now."But you are my husband's brother," Blair said softly."Well,
"My mom?" Louis frowned. "Blair, are you sure my mom wants to meet to talk about something? I have a feeling this is not going to be a good thing. But I will accompany you if you are sure to go there.""No need," Blair said. "Just drop me here. Axel was on his way to pick me up. We are going to your mother's house together."Louis ignores Blair's request. He refuses to drop Blair on the way. Louis insists on driving Blair straight to the Barneys' mansion.Louis' car stops in the driveway of the Barney family's mansion. From the opposite direction, Axel's car also stopped simultaneously. Their cars were facing each other.Axel and Louis glanced at each other behind the wheel, respectively.Blair saw the tension between them. She immediately exited Louis' car and approached Axel in a hurry."Let's go!" Axel said as he took Blair's hand."Go? What do you mean to go?" Blair was confused."Yeah, what do you mean to go? Earlier, you said you were on business with my mom here? That's why you
A middle-aged woman was cleaning a restaurant table after the last customer left. Her face looked tired. But she is still so passionate about work.The door is open."Sorry, we're closed!" said the restaurant worker without turning around and wiping the table.A lovely and adorable three-year-old little girl walked up to her.The woman stopped wiping the table. She was shocked and amazed by the beauty of the girl."Hey, dear! You came with your parents?" The woman turned to the door and saw no one.She knelt in front of the toddler to align her position."You came alone? What's your name? Our restaurant is closed. Do you need help?"The three-year-old little girl whose curly hair was in two pigtails just smiled. "Angelica… my name is Angelie!""Oh, what a beautiful name! Where is your mom?""Grandma!" said the girl innocently. "Grandma!" she repeated one more time.The woman was stunned and stared at the little girl for a long time. "Did you come with your grandmother? Where is she? A
Blair managed to escape from Axel's arms without dropping her pride. She breathed a sigh of relief after shooing the man away. No more Axel's voice screaming or knocking on the door.Blair is back busy with work and activities caring for Angelie.A few hours later, Blair went to the front door and opened it. She peeked into the courtyard and didn't see Axel anywhere.There is a sense of regret and loss in her little heart. But Blair trying to get rid of all those worries and refocus on her current life.Moment Blair was about to close the door again, and the corner of her eye caught a flicker of movement that disturbed her. Blair came out and walked towards the side yard. She was surprised when saw Axel lying curled up on the swing."Goddes, what is he doing there? Really stubborn. Why doesn't he leave too?"Blair was again annoyed and slammed the door shut tightly.Blair went to check on her daughter on the second floor. The little baby was fast asleep. Blair keeps watch over her. Sh
Axel returned to the beach house and ran in a hurry. He opened the unlocked door of the house and shouted the name Blair."Blair! Blair, Where are you?"Axel couldn't find Blair anywhere."Angelica? This is Papa!"Axel ran to the second floor."Angelie? Where are you? Blair?"The house is entirely empty. Axel couldn't find Blair and his daughter was everywhere.Axel was desperate to go to the Blair’s room. The place was also empty. He looked into another room and saw a nursery. Axel's steps slowed when he saw lots of baby equipment there.Axel knelt in front of the cot. He picked up one of his daughter's little knit shoes and kissed it through tears."Where are you guys? Did something bad happen to Angelie? Where should I look for you guys?"Axel didn't know where else to go. He went back out and stood in the yard restlessly. He dropped his backpack on the ground and stood there in despair.Blair just came back from the beach, holding Angelie in her arms. She walked casually while cha
Blair took a walk along the beach with her little daughter. She put Angelie in the stroller. Blair continued to tell stories while showing many things to Angelie."I'm sorry, Angelie. At this time, I'm really sorry for not being able to give you a father you can be proud of in front of your friends someday."Blair Kneeled in front of the stroller while looking into the baby's clear eyes. Angelie smiled cheerfully while occasionally putting her hand to her mouth. Blair stretched out her forefinger to caress Angelie's cheek. The little baby grabbed Blair’s finger and held it tight."I really miss my mom at a time like this. What is she doing now? Is she well there? How hard it feels to have to raise a child alone without the support of a husband and family. I know how angry my mom was that night when she found out I was pregnant. I could understand if she kicked me out of the house. I really deserve it. Mom should have been angry and hated me.""Oh, Angelie… I really miss your grandma.
Blair comes home to her lonely and dark house.The first place she came was Axel's former room. She opened the bedroom door slowly. In her little heart, Blair wished for a miracle."What am I doing here? There's no way he'd just suddenly appear here. I don't even know where he is right now. After I rejected his proposal, he just walked away, leaving everything."Blair will close the door of Axel's empty room again. Then her gaze stopped on the large portrait of Axel still hanging on the wall. Axel is shirtless and poses so alluringly in the photo."That photo is the only thing that remains." Blair considered how proud Axel was of that photo.That's when Blair really started to feel lonely. She brushed aside the sweet memories of Axel and quickly closed his bedroom door again.Blair rushed to Angelie's room. The little girl is the only solace for loneliness Blair At the moment.***Louis went to the pack. Axel has left everything–the company and the pack to him. All the pack members we
Six months later…"You don't have to bring me flowers and toys for Angelie whenever you come here, Louis."Blair invites Louis into the beach house that is now her. Louis sat in the living room. He glanced at the stroller where the baby was laying the fast-asleep there."You seem to like flowers. And I don't mind if I had to buy more toys for Angelie, either. Look at her sleeping so soundly. This little girl is growing up so fast."Blair brought Louis a drink."I'm sorry this house is a mess. Because I have to do everything myself, including caring for Angelie.""You always turn down my offers to give Angelie a sitter.""It's okay, Louis. I don't want to lose precious moments accompanying my daughter's golden growth years.""Oh, I came here to tell you that we have already selected a director for the film we will produce.""Is it true? That's good.""We have also considered using actor Leonardo as the main character. He's expensive, but the risk would be less if we used a famous actor
The lawyer read out the contents of the second will."Sir Baviaan Barney said that Mr Axel could choose between the first or second will. Mr Axel can also refuse an arranged marriage with Miss Clarissa Jordan. However, he should be able to find another mate that has been destinated for him in the second will.""What?" Celine and Louis were utterly shocked. "What do you mean by another mate that has been destinated? How many mates are destined for Axel?""Mr Axel is fated to be the mate of two girls. The first girl was indeed Miss Clarissa Jordan. The second girl is the daughter of a woman who was once loved by Mr Baviaan Barney.""Nonsense!" Celine shouted.The lawyer told everything to Celine and Louis, witnessed by Carlos."Sir Baviaan Barney has the first love of mankind. Right before he married Axel's mother. Since this woman is from the human race, then Mr Baviaan Barney can't continue the relationship. He also chose to marry a mate destined for him to give birth to Mr Axel."Cel
Celine and Louis were already waiting at the notary's office appointed by Mr. Baviaan Barney. They gathered there to listen to the reading of the will by the lawyer."Why don't we just get started?" she said. "We've been waiting here long enough."The notary cleared his throat. Several times he glanced at the door and also the watch."Mr. Axel hasn't come yet. I cannot read this will if all the members concerned are not present.""He's not coming," cried Louis. "He has given up and realized his position will not be able to get leadership in the company. Axel has failed to fulfil his will."Someone opens the door. Everyone in the notary's room was shocked. They thought it was Axel who came.As soon as they saw Carlos enter the room, they breathed a sigh of relief, except for the notary."Where is Mr. Axel?" asked the notary."Mr. Axel is on his way here. Isn't the deadline for fulfilling the will until midnight tonight?"The notary was nervous. "Yes, right. We still have about two hour
A month passed after the disclosure of the contract marriage status Blair and Axel. During that time, the coverage in the media was getting stronger. Various rumours and slander continued to emerge.The condition of the company under Axel's leadership is increasingly experiencing shocks. Losses are constantly occurring. Other projects held by Axel are also falling and abandoned by their investors. The artist management company began to be abandoned.That morning, Blair woke up feeling so lonely and uncomfortable. All night, she was busy preparing all the equipment for childbirth."I should have given birth right on my 18th birthday. However, there has been no sign of contraction until now."And on that very day, Axel's future will be determined. His father’s will was due that day. Axel would inherit the entire Barney‘s company or vice versa, he would be kicked out of the company and his position replaced by Louis.Blair gets out of the room. She felt an eerie silence.Her belly is so
