“Aren’t you going to dance, bro?” Dean asked his friend while looking at the dance floor.“Do you want me to dance with you?”Dean stopped and looked at his friend, who was also standing next to him. “Jerk!” A little smile formed on Aldrin’s lips, and his friend seemed to want to move away from him. “You’re right there, and I’ll look for Clara; maybe she’s not busy anymore.” Aldrin just nodded at his friend. When a waitress came by, he took a wine glass. It was only right that he was drinking when he caught sight of the girl his friend was looking for. He frowned when he saw a woman shake her shoulder, so he approached.Clara was surprised when two women suddenly blocked her, and they were obviously angry. She didn’t know them, especially, and it was obvious that they were from a wealthy family.“Bitch, what did you do to get so close to Dean?” A woman asked Clara. “Excuse me, but I don’t know why you’re mad at me. I’m just a simple staff here, and I don’t want any trouble,” Clara
Dean pityingly approached the girl when she was no longer with anyone.She looked up when she felt someone else around. When she saw Dean, a bitter smile appeared on her lips. “Sorry, I really didn’t mean to make your friend angry with me.”Dean sighed; he didn’t ask anymore and just offered the girl help. “I’ll give you a ride.”Clara did not refuse the young man’s offer. She can no longer walk alone, and her knees are feeling weak. She seemed to be injured because she no longer had a good job. She had only been on the job for a week, and the salary would have been great, but she was fired immediately.Dean supported the girl until she got into his car. “Where shall I take you?”“In the hospital.” Clara was almost whispering. “My mother is confined to the hospital,” she explained to her friend's questioning look.Dean nodded before starting the car. He feels sorry for the girl and feels that she’s carrying the burden of the world today.“Mom’s disease is getting worse. Leukemia,” she
“How is your mother?” Lita asked Clara.“It hasn’t gotten better yet, and there’s a lot of medicine that needs to be bought.” She answered the lady in tears and prayed that she would help her. It was a miracle that she remembered to ask how her mother was today.“I will help you treat your mother, but on one condition.”Clara looked up with a relieved look. “Really? I’ll do anything as long as you help my mother get better!”Lita smiled and liked the girl’s answer. When she looked at her daughter, she was also smiling. She clears her throat before speaking. “You know now that the company also had problems, right?”Clara nodded. Her mother and Lita’s husband are cousins, but they don’t consider them relatives.“Someone offered our family a large amount of money to get out of debt in exchange for being a surrogate mother.”Confused, Clara looked at the lady and wondered why she was being told that. All of a sudden, they are considered their relatives. What she knows is that Beatrix was
Clara almost fell over when she got inside the car. She was weak from nervousness. She was afraid that she might be discovered to be a different person, plus what was done to her earlier really made her muscles tremble.“The house you’re going to live in is ready, and we’ll take you there now. Don’t take any action first to make sure what’s in your stomach is formed. For follow-up check ups, we’re still set up the same way.” Lita explained it to Clara.“What about Mom? She needs a guard there,” Clara asked worriedly.“I have already paid someone to watch over your mother, so don’t worry about her anymore. When the child in your womb is stable, then I will allow you to visit your mother in the hospital.”“Thank you very much!” Even though she is sad and unable to take care of her mother personally, her heart is at peace. She thought about her mother’s health improvement.“Hide first. Now!” Lita quickly ordered Clara.Clara didn’t ask any more questions and immediately bowed. She was ab
Clara became emotional when her PT result was positive. She is happy and sad at the same time. She doesn’t know, but when she thinks that she won’t be the one to raise the child after it comes out, she feels hurt. “The one in your belly is not your child. You are only a surrogate mother for Beatrix, so her body will not be damaged. Not even a drop of your blood is lying in the veins of the child formed in your belly.” Clara remembered Lita’s words towards her earlier.Clara sighed. Even though she is not the child’s mother, she is still sad. She will also carry the child in her womb for nine months, so it is like her own, even though it is not her blood.What they had set up before was still the same every time Beatrix needed a checkup. She even has an assistant who supports her to make sure her pregnancy goes well. Aldrin looked at the picture his mother had sent him. It’s been more than eight months, and Beatrix’s belly is already big. It is said that the woman does not want to ha
“Mother, please wake up and fight! I’m sorry if I neglected you. They said they would treat you if I did what they asked me to do. But why are you acting like this, mother?” Tasya bit her lip and cried at the scene. The girl’s hands were shaking while she caressed her mother’s cheek. It was pitiful to look at her apart from her mother, who kept her eyes closed.Clara kissed her mother’s cheek while hugging her tightly. “Mom, I’m going to go and charge them. They can’t do this to you! I won’t let them not treat you properly.” She was crying while saying goodbye to her mother.“Miss, calm down, and your pregnancy might be affected,” Tasya’s concerned reminder to the woman.“Thank you; believe me, otherwise, I’m doing everything to get my mom better. But they cheated on me!” Clara clenched her fist and was angry with Beatrix’s family. “I’m sorry for what I said earlier. I just feel so sorry for your mother. Every time she wakes up, she’s looking for you.”Clara started crying again and
“Mom, maybe someone will see us together,” Beatrix complained to her mother.“Don’t ask too many questions and be so nitpicky; come with us to the hospital right now!” She said with a gasp, and her eyes widened at her daughter.Beatrix just followed her mother. Clara got in the car first, and she sat next to her.Clara took a deep breath when suddenly the baby seemed to kick inside her belly. It seems that the baby feels what she feels now as its mother. Upon arriving at the hospital, Clara saw that Lita was talking to a doctor. She didn’t know what they were talking about. She hoped it was for her mother. She entered her mother’s room, and there was no one else there. She burst into tears again and caressed her mother’s cheek.“Daughter…”Clara looked at her mother in shock when she heard her voice. “Mother? It’s good, and you’re awake. I’m sorry if I only visited you now!” She said while caressing her mother’s cheek.“Daughter, take care of your child.” The lady smiled even though
Clara was weak and wanted to give up. But when she thinks of her mother, she also thinks that she has to fight. She has to live for her mother.In Clara’s mother’s room, the lady was trying to get up, but she couldn’t. Her chest is also tight, and she is almost catching up with her own breathing.“Aunty, don’t force it.” Tasya worriedly stopped the lady. She heard everything that happened earlier and felt sorry for the mother and daughter.“My dear, you seem to have mercy; help my daughter!”Tasya cried when she touched the cold palm of the lady. It was just a few minutes before her work time was over. But it seems that she cannot leave the lady now, and she is begging her.“You take this. Save my daughter and my grandchild. You should find that person so that she can help my daughter.”With a trembling hand, she took the piece of paper that the lady was holding, and it had something else on it. She immediately put it in her pocket, even though she could not see its contents.“Please
Ava felt her heart jump out of her chest when she saw Alexander’s handsome face. She can see his beautiful body frame from leaning on the door jamb. He was like an oppa model. When a sympathetic smile appeared on his lips, his appearance now made any girl’s underwear fall. The girls made even more noise and were thrilled.“Gosh, he’s so handsome! Do you know his name?” The girl asked her seatmate and almost screamed from so much joy.Ava was even more annoyed because of the mixture of impressions and praises she heard from her students to Alexander. When she looked at the door again, her eyes met the young man’s, and he even winked at her.“The question is, who is staring at an Adonis like him here in the classroom?” One of the girls also asked excitedly.Alexander quickly left his stand when the girl looked at him badly. She was probably angry because the women in the classroom are causing so much noise because of his presence.“Quiet!” Ava shouted at the students who were still maki
“Yes, ma’am. I’m holding him back, but he won’t listen.”Rosella sighed and worried about her godson. The guard knows him as the chairman’s son. And she worried that he might have read the headlines in their hometown. She quickly walked and looked for Ava. Because Alexander will not listen to her or even to his parents. But if Ava is the one to talk to him, there is a huge chance that he will listen to the girl.Ava stopped what she was doing when someone knocked. Her students aren’t there yet, and it’s still early. She just purposely hung around in her classroom.“Ava, call Alexander, and he might do something no good.”Ava nervously stood up and approached the lady. “What happened, ma’am?”“Alexander left the compound and must have read the news.”Ava cursed in her mind, and her nervousness doubled. The vice mayor is not an ordinary citizen whom Alexander might do something bad against, like what he did to those who bullied her. Another thing is that she doesn’t want Alexander to do
The teacher was surprised to see a student in the doorway and looked angry at them. The gay teacher was about to approach him, but their dean came.“Alexander, what are you doing here?” Rosella commented to her godson.The gay teacher was surprised, and their dean knew the young student.“Tell them that it’s not their job to talk about their colleagues behind their backs.”Rosella sighed, and she saw her godson angry because of a woman just now. She looked at the teachers inside the faculty, and she could see the wonder in their faces, and it might be because a student was only talking like that to her. “I’ll take care of this,” she said almost in a whisper to the young man.Alexander left without a word and walked straight out of the campus hot-headed. He did not attend to his next subject.“Ma’am, does that student have a problem?” The gay teacher asked their dean.“The gossip is enough. If I catch anyone of you talking about Ava, you will be suspended; do you all understand?”Those
Luisa grinned. “There’s no need to make an effort because your unique smell is wafting away,” Luisa said in a taunting way.“Alright, my unique smell is free, and since it’s free, then feel free to smell it as long as you want. But don’t blame me if you have an upset stomach. Too much sniffing is also bad for your health.” She laughed when the aura on Luisa’s face suddenly darkened. She was annoyed again when she was the one who had started to argue with her in the first place.“Bitch!” She hissed. If only the look could kill, Luisa was sure that Ava would fall to the ground lifeless.She had turned her back on Luisa, and she knew that she would have a heart attack soon if she was only sick. It was still early, so she went to the faculty first. She was also full because of Alexander. Upon entering, the people there were suddenly silent. It looks like she is the topic again, well, obviously because there are traces of guilt on their faces.“Hi, Ava, have you read the circulating blind
“Alexander, enough… uhmmmm!” She tries to stop the young man, but she is unable to push him away from her body. She admitted to herself that his searching kiss was addictive, and his hand caressing her thigh added to the sensation that envelopes her body. When he got tired of the girl’s lips, his kiss crawled down her neck. He knew he would be hanged for what he was doing, but he couldn’t stop himself. Ava is like a drug that made his addiction grow. And for Godsake, even his hands seem to have a mind of their own and know where to touch in the girl’s body. His satisfaction didn’t end there. He wants more; his hand is searching for something. She gasped as her chest heaved when she felt the young man’s hand enter her top clothes. She stopped his hand before it reached her breasts, but she lacked strength. The sensation nearly drowned her. “Shit, why do you still have your period until now?” Alexander complained as if frustrated while gently caressing the young woman’s healthy bre
“Alexander, don’t compare that child to all the girls that you have made your toy. Because even if she’s just a maid’s daughter, I value them so much, and I consider them part of our family!”Alexander smiled after remembering what his grandmother told him. She still didn’t believe what he answered to her, but she still gave him the information he asked for.“Do you see something funny in my face?”Alexander blinked. He didn’t realize that he was stunned while staring at the girl’s face. He continued chewing before answering her. “Why are you so beautiful, baby?”“Alexander, how many times should I have to remind you not to call me baby because I’m older than you?” She complained angrily to the young man. “Alright, then let’s get into the point; say yes so you can be my girlfriend and I can be your boyfriend before I change our endearment.”“What? Are you insane? Are you courting me for you to say that to me?” She glared at him. So, this is how Alexander thought of them? Alexander s
Ava angrily hit the young man on the arm with her hand when she recognized him. If she only had a heart disease, she might have been attacked because of frightening her.“Ouch, baby!” Alexander caressed his arm even though it didn’t hurt.“Moron! Why do you have to drag me here without a word?” She glared at the young man. The Jew just grinned at her. It’s so good to smack his face. But she immediately reprimanded herself, and something else came to her mind.“When I say come with me here, will you come willingly?” Alexander’s asked at the girl philosophically.Ava glared at the young man. It is obvious what her answer will be to his question. Of course, it’s a no. What will be the reason for her to come here and to the private office that only the chairman uses? Even if it is said that the chairman is his father, it is still embarrassing.It was his first time to enter that room, and she couldn’t stop her own eyes from wandering to the beautiful staff inside the office. She looked at
Miranda was once again impressed with Alexander when he perfected the exam. He’s not just handsome, but he’s also smart. Brix is not lagging behind either, but he has five mistakes. And her? Here she is; her score hangs in the balance like the rest of her classmates. It doesn’t matter; the important thing is that she still has something to be proud of, and that is the beauty of her face and body.“Girl, are you serious about Alexander being your birthday escort?” Julie asked in a whisper.“Yes, it’s easy to change the invitation.” She smiled and knew that her mother would give her everything she wanted because she was her only daughter. Her brothers also love her and are ready to fight when she is hurt.“The question is, will he agree?” Julie asked her friend teasingly.Miranda glared at her friend; they had free time, so they had time to chat. They went to the canteen and looked for Alexander, but they couldn’t find him.“Ms. Ava, a present has arrived for you, and it’s at the facult
After entering the classroom, Ava immediately looked around. The first person she saw was Brix. He seems to be calm now and not drawing attention to her. Good thing then; maybe he realized it because she slapped him yesterday.The next thing he looked for was Alexander. She frowned when she saw that the young man’s seat was empty. She looked at the others there, and the young man might have just moved seats. But she was just disappointed, and he wasn’t there. She looked at the clock hanging on the wall. The class will start in just three minutes. She didn’t want to spoil her day so much, so she unfolded the papers and turned on the laptop.“Am I late?” Alexander asked from the doorway, gasping for air.Ava suppressed the smile that wanted to appear on her lips when she saw Alexander. His hair was messy, obviously not combed, but she would admit it that he was still handsome despite his messy look. He looks like a bad boy, but it fits on him. “Next time you will enter earlier,” she sai
