We lie there for a few minutes, just enjoying each other's presence. Edward takes advantage of the moment to ask the question I was already expecting him to ask. I even considered that he took a bit longer before bringing up the subject.
"I understand that you're going to end things with that..." He was about to swear but gave up at the last second. "...with Smith."
"Yes, I need to do that as soon as possible," I confirmed, albeit somewhat reluctantly. "But I can't do it while we're here, Edward. I just need some time."
"Of course, you can end a relationship," Edward insisted, his voice firm. "I don't agree with waiting until marriage to end this ridiculous story between you two. He can very well leave; no one will miss him."

EdwardTurning down the corridor towards Beatrice's room, the first thing I noticed was her figure, standing in front of Andrew's door, hand raised ready to knock. Her guilty expression indicated that my suspicion that she was planning a nighttime visit to her now ex-boyfriend's room was correct, which left me quite concerned.She saw me and stammered in embarrassment before recovering and saying more firmly:"I'm going to talk to Andrew.""Now!?"Before Beatrice could answer, the door behind her opened, and Andrew appeared, looking irritated and wearing only a fluffy robe. This only heightened my irritation.He rudely questioned, "Any problem with my girlfriend coming to my room at night

BeatriceMy cousin Sebastian's wedding was beautiful and full of joy, and everyone seemed genuinely happy with his union with Elizabeth. I, too, felt happy, as both are people whom I hold in high regard and deserve to be happy together.The only reason I wasn't fully satisfied that day would be Andrew's presence, something I acknowledged to be my fault. However, to my relief, he left in the morning, and upon waking up, I saw a message from him stating that he understood he wasn't needed that weekend and that it was best to leave before the wedding preparations began.Still, this didn't exempt me from the need to have a "conversation" with him, to make it clear that there was no chance of us continuing together. It was more than evident that we were incompatible, and it was better for us to go our separate ways.

BeatriceThe return to London took place the morning after the wedding, following a lengthy visit to my parents. Timothy and I would travel back by train."I wish you much happiness, my daughter," Mom expressed joyfully. "Perhaps now is the time to start anew, isn't it? Everything seems different now, in a positive way, I would say."I understood exactly what Madeleine Paggett was referring to, and I didn't think it was right to pretend otherwise. After all, everyone must have noticed the rekindling between Edward and me, even if they didn't comment on it in my presence.Another obvious thing for everyone was the change in Edward. He was noticeably softer and more relaxed, smiling frequently and actively engaging in conversations and activities, without the sarcasm and cynicism that characterized him in previous moments."Thank you for the support, Mom," I said, unabashed. "But Edward and I are just talking. Who knows? We'll take it one step at a time."We said our goodbyes, and Timot

BeatriceI tried to speak with Andrew clearly and directly, wishing for him to leave as quickly as possible. I knew Edward was about to arrive with Timothy, and I didn't want Andrew and Edward to cross paths at all, as I was certain that the atmosphere between them would be extremely tense.When I opened the door and faced Edward, what worried me was that Timothy wasn't with him."Edward!?" I couldn't hide my surprise and immediately asked what concerned me the most at that moment. "Where is Timothy? Why isn't he with you?""What is this man doing here, Beatrice?" Edward questioned.Edward didn't immediately answer my question, his attention more focused on Andrew's presence in my house."Did you forget to pick up Timothy?" I asked, initially with irritation and then with growing concern. "Did something happen to my son? Is that it, Edward?"I wasn't paying attention to Edward's question about Andrew; my main concern was Timothy."I didn't forget to pick up Timothy, Beatrice!" Edward
Rejected by the Tycoon A Perfect Night
BeatriceI was getting ready to go out with Edward, wearing a new and elegant dress; I took the opportunity to put on the diamond earrings he had given me. As I dressed, I noticed Edward's passionate gaze and smiled. I invited him to help me put on the diamond necklace.When Edward saw my presence, his eyes lit up, warming my heart and making us both smile like fools. I asked for his help to put on the diamond necklace, and he readily agreed. He mentioned that, although he wanted to say I looked beautiful, it would be a lie. This caught me by surprise and made me tense as he fastened the necklace around my neck. He approached, and his hand caressed the nape of my neck exposed by the bun, placing a gentle kiss on the top of my spine, sending shivers down my spine."You're always beautiful, my love. Alwa

I want to get to know the woman who raised you so wonderfully well. Never forget how special you are to us, Beatrice and me."During the drive to school, Timothy shared emotionally charged details about his mother and life in Kyiv before the war reached the city.When I parked the car in front of the school, Timothy's words deeply surprised me."And I'll be very happy if our family grows, and I get a little brother like Archie."Beatrice and I had never discussed children before; after all, our ma

BeatriceTo my complete horror, Edward wasn't alone in the room, and the scene before me was, in fact, highly compromising. I was speechless, as I didn't expect to find Louise Orleans in my husband's office."What's going on here, Edward!?"Edward and Louise were standing face to face, with her hands clasping my husband's neck, and he was holding her hands with his own. I was bewildered. What exactly was happening there? Were they about to kiss? The scene denoted an unacceptable level of intimacy."It's not what you're thinking, Beatrice," Edward quickly distanced himself from Louise, removing her hands from around his neck. "Louise was just leaving, right, Louise?"Edward looked at Louise quite eloquently, sugg

AndrewAccepting the invitation to dinner at Beatrice and Edward's house was a sudden decision. I felt hesitant, but at the same time, intrigued by the opportunity to rekindle the friendship that had been shaken by emotional issues.Talking extensively with Beatrice in the preceding days brought much-needed clarity. I realized that the weight of trying to win the love of a woman still in love with her ex-husband was a mistake. The friendship with Beatrice, after all, was much more valuable than any unrequited romantic desire.Upon arriving at Beatrice and Maddock's house, I noticed the presence of Abigail, Edward's sister. An inexplicable nervousness seized me, arousing my curiosity. We exchanged glances, and a subtle tension hung between us, something I admit I did not overlook.

BeatriceWe conversed animatedly during dinner, reminiscing about stories and sharing laughter. I looked at my husband, that beautiful man now entirely dedicated to my needs, reflecting on how much our lives had changed since the day I left that house, determined to forget a year of rejection I lived with Edward and pretend that I no longer loved him when in reality, my love for him only grew each day."While Timothy is almost a young man, Archie is just a baby, and Beatrice is pregnant, soon she'll also have her baby in her arms," Sebastian commented suggestively, looking at Elizabeth, and we all eagerly awaited to hear what he would say next, with smiles of anticipation on our faces. "I also want to have a baby, my love."He didn't disappoint us. We all found what he said very funny, and Elizabeth tu

BeatriceToday I woke up with uncontained joy in my heart. As I got ready for work, I found myself smiling at the mirror, my hands gently caressing the slight swell of my belly. I was radiant, feeling a deep connection with the little being growing inside me.Upon arriving at the office, I was greeted with warm wishes from colleagues and friends. Everyone noticed my good mood, and I couldn't help but share the news of my pregnancy with them. Each smile and congratulations made my day even more special.I was heading back to my office after a meeting when I nearly bumped into Andrew. I hadn't seen him in weeks. The way he had exited my life had left me hurt and confused. However, upon seeing him again, I felt a strange calm in his presence."Hello, Beatrice,

BeatriceDespite everything that had happened between us, my heart insisted that I should trust Edward. I decided to trust him in the same way he trusted me. And so, with the security of his love and confidence in his loyalty, I shared about my pregnancy. His happiness was so evident that there was no room to doubt his feelings."We should tell Timothy," Edward said with remarkable enthusiasm."I'll pick him up from school with you," I said, equally excited. "And together, we can share this news with him."Edward agreed immediately, shutting down his computer and grabbing his work folder. We walked together toward the door. Passing by Edward's secretary, I briefly recounted what had happened when I arrived at his office that afternoon."Who are you calling?" I asked, surprised to see him dialing a number on his phone.Edward just waved his hand, asking me for a moment, but he hugged me, keeping me close to his body while making the mysterious call."Mrs. Steve? Yes, it's me," Edward s

EdwardDespite Beatrice choosing a safe distance between us, the fact that we were willing to clarify everything left me satisfied."I haven't spoken to or seen Louise for months, Beatrice, since that night at the restaurant when we reunited, and she acted rudely and disrespectfully toward you. Something I could never forgive."Beatrice seemed about to interrupt me, opening and closing her mouth several times but managed to stay silent, so I continued with my explanation."Today, Louise showed up at my company unannounced, and I received her as I would with any acquaintance because that's exactly what she is to me now," I made a point to emphasize that. "She was seeking strong sponsorship for her modeling career, and apparently, her finances aren't doing well. She thought appealing to me and our history would be a good idea.""And it seems like it worked," Beatrice interrupted with visible irritation. "You were about to kiss each other."I took a deep breath and struggled to keep calm
