"Hey"
I heard someone’s voice as I was in the depth of my dreams.
"Mmm." I groaned and still not opened my eyes.
I tried to straighten my body because my hip was already a bit sore in my position.
I tried to reach the base for my feet but I couldn’t find it.
"Hey Crystal, we're in New Jersey."
I was taken aback by the shock.
I quickly peeked out the window and saw flight attendants and staff personnel waving at us.
Noah and I are now in the backseat of the car. Every time my skin touches his leather jacket I can't stop giggling with laughter because it's still hot regardless of the air conditioner.I left Liam on seen in his message because even I am not sure what will be the end of my return.I don’t want to give false hope to him and then in the end I won’t be able to come back.I still don’t know mom’s reasons why she did that. So as long as I'm not sure what my decision will be, I don't want to end the words I'm going to give up."So this is how it looks here," Noah uttered as he was gazing outside the window.
“Look at that house Noah.”I pointed to the large castle-like house in front of us.I am always overwhelmed around this house, it feels like it’s encompassing my whole existence.“What about that?” Noah peeked at where I am pointing and seems like he doesn’t know what is special about it.“That’s my dearest house.” I smiled heartily. I felt as if the corners of my lips had reached my ears.Until now, this house is still the most beautiful.The ambiance and mood are still lingering.“Oh, we’re here?” Noah exclaimed.“What? No! That’s not where I lived— though I wish to.” I flapped my hands in front of him.“Then why do you call it your dearest house?”“It’s because I have the most memorable memories in this house. My life when Jorge and Eliz came into my life became worse. And so, every
“I committed a sin, Crystal.” Mom’s eyes landed on the floor. “Having an affair with your father even knowing that he has a wife is the greatest mistake I have ever done. He goes home with his family every day and comes to me at night. We are doing that for a month thinking that we are in love. But how? How can I settle in that kind of relationship? He keeps me from the sight of other people and I am just waiting for him in the hotel thinking what time would he come to me.”I didn’t say a word and just sit in front of my mom. She looks really hurt as she reminisces her time with Mr. Dawson.“We had a relationship at the back of his wife. I decided to fly into Denmark when I was 18 with a dream of being a rich woman or even finding a wealthy man. But, I landed a job which is a maid in the Dawsons. That’s where I met your father.”“Y-You were a maid of them..?” I muttered as I use my other hand to k
“I became the bad person for you for the entire years of your life Crystal. And I am really really sorry about that. I’m sorry that I couldn't provide the prosperous life that you always dream of. I’m sorry that I took you away from your father. I am so sorry that I didn’t become a good mother to you, and that I will always be a hindrance to your dream of coming to Denmark.”I kept on shaking my head as my tears streamed down to my cheek. “No…”“I just want you to know sweetheart that I did all of that for you. To protect you from criticisms and sharp tongues of the people who don't even know you.” My mom strokes my face.“I-I’m sorry…”
[THIRD-PERSON POV]"Why are you so jittery?" Sam said when he saw Liam who was restless in his office and seemed to be walking while looking at his phone.“Come on man, she’s going to be back. If she’s not then I’m going to get her for you. I know where she lives in New Jersey- ”Her chest lifted as Liam held her collar tightly. Sam raised both of his hands, surrendering. "Easy.""You know where she lives?" Liam uttered.“Yes, I have been looking out for her right? Of course, I know where she lives. I even know her favorite places. If I don’t have Sybil I might have been in l
It was like I just wanted to turn around and go back to our house to eat breakfast.“Did I think we were here because you were worried about that person? I don't think you should worry about his condition. ” Eliz whispered to my side.We are now standing on the side of the hotel and because its wall is glass I can see with my two eyes Noah's swallowing of the delicious food that is served in front of him now.I still thought that this person was hungry and now he was starving, but he was still full now compared to me who didn't even eat dinner.I stepped forward a little to knock on the glass because this is where Noah was positioned.
“What’s wrong? Are you feeling okay? ”I felt Noah's hand caressing my back. It help me feel better."I need to go to the restroom." I said softly before I looked for the closest I could wash.“What are you feeling Crystal? Is there something wrong? ” concern enveloped Noah's eyes.I didn’t answer him I just left him outside the restroom.Is this one of the symptoms of the disease I carry? Is it already starting to spread in my body?I'm scared.
"Crystal what the fuck?" Noah screamed. "I mean, congratulations but what the fuck?"I don’t know if he hates me.My whole muscles and fingers were shaking. What is this?Am I really pregnant?"Fuck, you got pregnant with who?" I just closed my eyes when Noah rained cheap ones on me."Could you at least tone down your voice and stop cussing me?" my irritable response. “I don’t know what to do Noah, what just happened, why am I pregnant, and why is this happening to me?”&nbs
“Is she still locked up in her room?” “Yes, dad. Since we got back, Crystal hasn't come out.” Blade stated. “I overheard Amara sobbing.” She pretended to be tough. But the truth is, she was deeply upset by what the other people had to say. If she'd just let me present her to the general public, that would be good. My daughter isn't a gold digger. She's a goddamn Dawson!” he yelled, his rage palpable across the room. “— and how come her husband is nowhere to be found? Is he not planning on visiting his wife?” “It's possible he's still in the manor, father.” When Crystal came down the stairs with a suitcase, the two of them came to a halt in their conversation. Blade leaped to his feet and offered to assist he
[Crystal] I didn't seem to have a good dream last night. I dreamed of water and I believe it was a bad omen. I immediately get out of bed after resting for a bit. Fortunately, my morning sickness was not that bad. Such a well-mannered child for not torturing its mother. I plan to go to a doctor today for a check-up and to know the gender of my baby. I think I can ask Liam to go with me. It is the reason why I am so excited that I wake up so early. Whatever the gender of this child will be, I will accept it wholeheartedly and support my child. My hand slightly raised and rubbed my belly. I promise to protect and take care of you, my baby.
[Crystal] Today is the day when Liam plans to tell his family about our child. When we got back from Khun Wanida resort, everything went well and there were no problems. Dad continues to help Blade and Maddison. I can hardly talk to Blade and them every time they are at home. I chose to stay at my father's house. I don't want to cram myself into Spencer's manor. Also, I am more comfortable with it. So far the investigation into the search for their son Blade is ongoing. However, they still do not have information because Maddison's father, Mr. Butler, does not come out of the manor, which i
“I know how important my return is to you. Especially and I saw firsthand with my own eyes how much you missed me during the times I was missing. But, I hope you also understand my decision not to let the public know. It is also for the safety of our future child. I don’t want the time to come to confuse him with the various articles he finds on the internet, or with what people have to say. It is enough for me that you and Noah know that I am still alive and that I have come back to you that I have lost my family. So, I hope you understand me. ” I sincerely muttered while not taking my eyes off my father. “I also don't want to bring up what happened in the past. I don't want to mention my mother here, and especially the events of the past that she wants to forget. ” Mr. was stunned for a moment. Dawson before a smile flash
When Crystal entered the room reserved for them by Maddison she saw that Blade was still inside and they seemed to be talking about something. Crystal didn't hear what they were talking about because they became silent once she got inside as well. Before Blade came out, Crystal followed him with sharp glances. Blade didn't look at Crystal and looked just straight at him until he got out of the door. Silence narrowly enveloped the inner of the room after Blade came out. Both Maddison and Crystal are skeptical of the moves they will make. Crystal was about to step forward to look at the suitcase; she didn't know what the only clothes were when Maddison suddenly blurted out.
[THIRD-PERSON POV] Along the way, Crystal could no longer resist her drowsiness. This is also because she is pregnant. Because she needs more sleep now compared to when she is not yet carrying a baby in her womb. Maddison was just staring out the window and seemed to be deep in thought, as were Blade and Liam. Not even one of them intended to speak. As a result, silence enveloped them. Crystal's father, Mr. Dawson let out a series of sighs as he looked back and forth at the three. One reason he plans on vacation is to have time with Crystal, especially now that she knows who she really is. But, another reason he does this is he wants to have peace between Blade, Maddison, and Liam.
“Where are we going, Blade?” I asked him but he didn't seem to have any plans to tell me. After he conveyed to me earlier the problem he and Maddison were facing, as well as the help Noah had promised, his phone suddenly rang and he received a call. After Blade answered it, he suddenly told me to get in the car, and seemed to be in a hurry to leave. I can't understand what's going on. When I asked Blade who called, he told me it was Mr. Dawson phoned and told both of us to go to a certain location. Which Blade doesn't tell me. He just shut his mouth and didn't utter any words. &nb
[Crystal] "What do you mean you didn't take Noah home with you to Denmark?" I was shocked at the tone of Blade's voice. It sounds disgusting and seems furious at me. His eyes are full of desperation and I can feel his sadness. Maybe he's really mad at me, “I-I can’t push him to go b-back here, Blade. Noah decided to stay in New Jersey for a few more days.” I defended myself honestly. “He wants to fix his relationship with Trina before he comes back here again. And I don’t know how many more days it will take before that thing happens. I’m not sure what will happen there. Now, Noah is anxious, he can't talk because of the quarrel between him and Trina. I could have done nothing but agree as he wished no
[THIRD PERSON-POV] “Are you sure that they would help us?” Maddison whispered to Blade, trying to lower her voice for fear that someone would hear her. “Don’t worry. They are my friends. I am certain that they would do everything to help us. But—” Blade took a long pause before he continued. “The only thing that they might never give you, is to take Liam away from Crystal. She is pregnant with Liam's child, and even if I am swearing him to death, I would never want to take away the father of the innocent child.” Maddison seemed saddened by that fact. Not because of how he felt about Liam, but because of how her father would react. “We will do everything to find our son. Just trust me, Maddi. They are coming back to Denmark
