Chapter 37 Birth Wound
Looking up at him, her eyes were misty from the unshed tears. She just stares at him, unable to ask what he meant by what he said. Her throat is too constricted to talk.
"We may have started on a wrong foot, but I'm hoping we could work this out. I never expected the outcome of the agreement I offered you, it backfired on me" he whispers while caressing her cheek. "I never planned a lifetime with you, Zia, but I was left with a yearning to have you in my arms every single night. I was left with the desire I felt for no one. I was left with the emptiness after you left" he continues."I tried to erase you in my life, out of my mind. But it just made me hollow. Despite Ellen's presence, I can't move on with my life without you. I strived to focus on her, recalling my need to have her, I kept on reminding myself I once dreamed to have a family with her, but I failed all the time. Your memory is stronger than what I made myself believe all this time"

He has to carry her outside to get dressed.Inside the closet, he made her sit down on the couch facing the floor-to-ceiling wardrobe cabinets."I will just get your change" he whispers while pecking a kiss on her forehead.Seeing the insides of the cabinet after he opened it, Zia narrowed her eyes. The closet is full of clothes and there's no way her one small luggage has a massive number of clothes inside to make it this full after unpacking."You got to be kidding me..." she mutters, making Lucien turn to her.Looking at her grim face, he was perplexed. She looks angry and he doesn't know why."This insult again? Until now?" she painfully exclaims looking at his confused eyes."Zia, what are you talking about?" he was perplexed by hi

And just like her dragging steps as she came out of the service elevator to transfer to the penthouse elevator, she feels like weighing a ton. All her limbs feel heavy.She just sparsely look around, checking the surroundings as she waited for the elevator to open after she scanned her card. She feels like burying herself in the deepest part of her bed to have the serenity she needed. But she doubts if she ever finds one until Lucien gets home. Him, being with Ellen doesn't suit her gut.Still lost in thoughts, she was unaware of the floor indicated on the screen and when the elevator opens.Snapping from her trance, she was startled by the intense eyes staring at her. The pair of piercing eyes, Lucien Wright owns. Surprised to see him, she just stares at him without noticing she remains unmoving from her spot."Come in, Zia. Lucy is already waitin

"That was savage" Jason mumbles in utter disbelief. Amusement laces his voice as he turns to Eve with a smile."Let's see what that scheming bitch will do against Samantha Wright" Eve raves amusedly."She was nowhere close compared to the bitchiness of Miss Wright" Emily added, chuckling."But what if it's true? That the CEO has that problem?" Jason curiously asks."It's none of anyone's business. We all have struggles and though his life is in the limelight, he still deserves privacy. We don't know what he had gone through. The medical institution should investigate why his result was posted online and not securely kept. The CEO could sue them for the leak of pertinent documents. Whoever posts the result must be sued for breaching the CEO's privacy" Eve seriously stated."This is the downside of being famous. Even your privacy is at stake. People will find something to tarnish your good name" Emily shrugs."I'm curious about the CEO's reaction" J

"Lucien?" she whispers after she recognized him.Slowly she walks closer to him."What are you doing here? Why didn't you get inside the room? What time did you get home?" she asks what has been bothering her mind. But she got no reply even after she had taken a seat beside him."Lucien..." she was suddenly bothered by how he looked.Heaving a sigh, she placed her hand on his knee, giving it a gentle squeeze. She stares at his loosened tie and disheveled hair. He looks dejected almost defeated, which is troubling her."I've been waiting for you since afternoon. I got out of work earlier. I played with Lucy around the pool, I bathe him and we ate dinner together. I put him to sleep and read him his favorite story" she recounted what she did earlier. She waited for his reply but after a while of silence, she got none."I also tried to call. Lucy wanted to say goodnight to you...but your phone was quite busy" she added and waited again. W

Staring, she remains to wait for him to continue."I don't know if it's love, Zia...I don't know I'm capable of such... I am with Ellen for years but I can't say I love her... She was just there beside me, but it doesn't bother me whether she was around or not. And I fear I will do the same with you" he added, sounding so conflicted."I was desperate to find an answer to my dilemma and I don't want to use you as I did to Ellen. You are...you are precious to me Zia. The first time I felt this kind of protectiveness but I was frightened of myself""These were all new to me. Everything in my life was easily offered, I can easily get anything I want...but for the first time...you gave me a difficult plight.
