I looked at the time, it was 5 pm already. 'Why isn't he home yet?" Jack closes from office and comes home immediately after. It's been an hour already. I frowned looking at the clock. Maybe he was very busy? Or had somewhere to be? I dialed his number. "The number you're calling cannot be reached.' It said.I sighed. I heard a car pull up. Ah! He's back. I arranged my hair waiting for my husband to come in. The first thing he normally does is attack me with kisses and with a warm smile planted on his face but it wasn't so this time.Jack walked in with anger plastered on his face. He glared at me. " What happened?" I asked him. "You whore!" He snarled."You thought I wouldn't find out, didn't you? You behave all innocent. You thought you could trick me, fucking other guys behind my back, you slut!" His words were venom."What are you talking about, Jack? What do you mean I sl-" he cuts me off?"Don't you dare act like you don't know what I am talking about?" He screamed."I do not kn
Why did I have to talk back at him? I hit myself in the head, frustrated. Look where my big mouth has landed me.I blinked looking at the man and woman before me; I pleaded with my eyes. "Please, Is there anything I could do to...." I didn't finish. But the guy shook his head no. The lady looked at me with no emotion on her face.I can't miss this opportunity, not when I needed money. The man gestured for me to go out. I sighed walking out.I wanted to scream. This was a great opportunity I just missed. All because I couldn't humble myself. But... To think about it, it's the stupid big ego boss' fault! Couldn't handle a little insult.But... Now I see why they call him Mr. Sexy...Seriously? I've gone crazy.Where would I get another job? It took me 2 horrible years to get this job and now I just lost it?Oh god. It'd be really hard to find another job. What was I thinking?!Trust me... I need this job... And the money. It was my only source and hope for making a good living.Maybe Mr
It felt like I was in the sky, wherever I am was so soft. And it smelt nice too. I wonder where I was, probably in heaven... It felt so good. I smiled. I never want to leave this place. I used my hand to rub wherever I was laid, my eyes still shut.Where was I? I didn't care. Memories from last night suddenly flew into my brain. I shot my eyes open. Oh my God. Where was I? Where is Carrie? Oh my God.I shot up from the bed. I took a look around. My wandering eyes stopped at Xavier who was sitting on a rocking chair just across the room.Xavier!What was he doing here? I had no doubt he was the one behind this. He took my child away from me. Oh my God. What if he's harmed her. He's a monster, I don't think he would think twice before harming a child."Carrie," I muttered repetitively. I turned to look at him again."Where is my child? What did you do to my child, I swear to God, if anything happens to her I'd light you on fire!" I threatened. At this time, I was already off the bed.He
I quickly rush out of the room, my breathing heavy as I internally cursed at myself. What was I thinking? I can't just enter any room like that! I placed a hand over my heart, trying to calm down the fast beating. The door behind me was cold and I leaned my back against it, knowing I didn't see anything. In fact, I couldn't seem to move my body. I was frozen and I stayed in my spot for what felt like hours but then the door opened and I stumbled forward, almost hitting the floor but someone wrapped their arms around my waist, catching me. Xavier. I looked up at him and blushed red. "Uhmm," I mumble, unsure on what to say. "Sorry about that, I mean about earlier, I didn't see anything." I rush to explain myself. He raised up a perfectly arched eyebrow, "Indeed?" I slowly nod my head, hoping he would believe my truth. "I really didn't see anything." "Very well then, Miss Lily, as you can see-" He gestured forward, taking a step pass me. "I have to be somewhere soon." He says. "W
He said and that got really angry. "How does it concern you?!" I shot back glaring at him, I don't think he could see me though, the room was really dark.Everywhere might be dark but I could feel his cold glare. Unbelievable."Let go of me you scumbag!" I screamed at him, that only made him tightened his grip. He is a psychopath."I would let go of you, if you leave this place right now." He said. I scoffed."This isn't right, you can't just go around ordering me, who do you think you are?" I asked him. He didn't bother to answer me, he just tucked his hand in his trouser pocket. The nerves.I huffed turning around, but he grabbed me, turning me around to look at him. I got so angry and kicked him where the sun doesn't shine. I wish I had a camera with me, you needed to see his face, he crotched down holding his you know. I took the time to sprint out of the room. But what have I just done, I was running back to where my daughter was when I saw three guys on suit, they wore eye gl
My heart seized beating immediately.50 million? Oh god, what am I going to do? I was going to have a heart attack. I don't even have up to a thousand dollars. Where would I get 50 million from?! What was I thinking, I should have known everything in this house was expensive.I look at him with pleading eyes, I noticed a smirk was forming on his face. How I wanted to hit that handsome face of his.Handsome? Again? I mentally hit myself. Why do I have to be so stupid?!I looked up to see his amused face, only then I had realised I said that aloud.Why does he look amused in a situation like this? I guess he enjoys seeing me suffer, and I hated him. He might be handsome and all but I don't like him."Please, I didn't mean to break the vase, I'd do anything to pay it...""Anything?" I don't like the way he said that."If you think I'm going to have sex with you, then think again!" I snapped at him, even when I know it was not the right choice right now."And why would I want that from y
Seeing jack made my heart stop. What was he doing here? I never planned on meeting him again and now.He didn't enter, he just stood there looking at us with both anger and jealousy?I stumbled back up, and the elevator moved. Xavier was busy smirking. He sure does like smirking a lot.Jack. Maybe he has a meeting here with Xavier, that's the only reason why he could be here."Relax, you look ugly making that face." I heard Xavier say. I threw him a deadly glare, I'm sure if looks could kill, he'd be dead by now.He rolled his eyes. "Do you have a meeting with him?" I asked him.He furrowed his eyebrow."Why? you know him?" How I wanted to hit this man. He doesn't know who he was and he was smirking, I thought he knew."Uh... no, just wanted to know." He didn't buy that. I was hoping he did.He straightened his magnificent suit. "I have a meeting with him in a few minutes, and you have to be there." He said.Nonono, I'm not ready. Does he know the truth? What if he knows and decides
What was I going to tell him? It is like he has already known about it, but wants to hear it from me?This is what I have been trying to avoid, to face my past. But you can't run from it."I don't like when I am being lied to, miss Hayden," he emphasized. I wanted to roll my eyes. But right now is not the right time.I sighed. "he's my ex.""I know," he said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. You see guys."I have a meeting at 10, you're coming with me," he said.So that was it? He surely knows how to scare the crap out of someone, I thought he was going to fire me for a second."uh... Okay." I said looking around, I have no idea what to do next. So I just stood there.Awkward."you're not doing what you're supposed to be doing," he said after some time. He was looking deep into it.What was I supposed to be doing? I have no idea, I have never done a job like this before and he knows that. He's probably trying to get on my nerves as he seems to enjoy that a lot. I would
"I-isn't that too soon?" I asked not because I didn't want to get married to him. If there was a priest here right now and everyone was okay with it, I wouldn't have hesitated.But Xavier, was he okay with it? Like I mean... "It's not." That took me off guard, seeing that it was coming from Xavier, he would also get married to me if there was a priest here. I smiled. "See? It's not. Don't worry about this Lily, I've got this, you just relax." Xylia said with a huge smile on her face and the others agreed.To say I was happy was an understatement, I glanced at Xavier who was busy with his phone. Seriously?Soon we were done eating, I had wanted to help them at least do something but they wouldn't let me do a thing.Jessie has changed her attitude towards me since she heard about me being pregnant and I don't know how to feel about it.I saw Carrie running around with a little boy and a girl, they must be Xylia's kids. They were so cute. good looks do run in their genes. "Ahhh." They s
"Why? It's not like I haven't seen you naked before." He said. "Well... You don't remember anything from that... Night." I said trying to sound confident but failed miserably."I do. You think I have bad memories like you do?" He said and I scowled.The nerves."Well..." I said lost for words, so he does remember. What the hell is wrong with my brain. I had always forgotten about stuff."Well?" He said, the smirk never leaving his face. "Can you close your eyes?" I asked and he raised an eyebrow but did it anyway. I walked slowly to the bathroom, looking at him as if he was peeping, immediately I got into the bathroom I closed the door. I heard him chuckle.With a sigh, I quickly put on my clothes and came out. He was still on the bed."Uh... You can use the bathroom now, there's a new toothbrush in there, come out... When you want to." I said. I was just seriously lost for words. "Hmm." I heard him hum.I quickly rushed out of the room. Why do I feel like that?! You gotta get used
I placed my hands on my face, trying to hide the fact that I was crying and blushing. I sniffed a couple of times.I felt him bringing me closer to him. "What did you want to tell me?" He asked raising an eyebrow.Oh yeah. That.How should I say this? It was so overwhelming. I sighed. "I'm pregnant." His eyes widened for like three seconds before they beamed with happiness. Taking my hands in his. "That's great news, I feel like the luckiest man on earth." He said kissing my forehead. This was a dream come through... Dream? You dreamt of this?! My subconsciousness screamed at me.Well... Maybe only once. But just in case this is all still a dream, I don't want to ever wake up. "And I feel like the luckiest lady on earth," I said and he chuckled.I like it when he does that."You do?" He asked pecking my lips. "Hmm hmm." I hummed and wrapped my arms around his neck and licked his lower lip.I don't want this to ever end. It felt so good.We finally broke apart. I sat down back on my c
I got out and walked not waiting for his reply. I just had to clear things up.Getting into the store, I bought a pregnancy test kit. I have gotten pregnant before, but I just want to be sure if I was pregnant or not.What if I was? This was so overwhelming. By the time I had reached home, it was already 4:22 pm. "What took you so long? You had me scared." Layla said immediately I got into the house.Her face held so much relief. "I... Uh, ran into an old friend." I said. She looked at me suspiciously before nodding her head."Did you get it?" She asked. I know her and I know that there were so many things running through her head, that she wanted to ask me questions."Yes," I said going towards my room direction, she called. "Lily?" I turned towards her and hummed. "You know you can tell me anything, right?" She asked.Yes, that would make our relationship stronger. "Yes," I said with a smile before I walked to my room.I had bought three pregnancy test kits.~My eyes widened lookin
I was in an empty room alone with Layla. It was dead silent until she sniffed. I was on a rollercoaster of emotions. Why can't everything just be fine? Why can't I have a normal life? My Carrie... She must have been crying now, oh god.After Lester had spoken earlier, he got a phone call and went out, saying he would be back, it's been two hours since he had left.Does Xavier know I was missing? I hope he knows, I hope he would be able to find us before it's too late because Lester might as well kill us, he is a psycho.The door suddenly flung open revealing Lester, a huge grin plastered on his face. "Miss me? Cause I sure missed you both." He said with a smile, it made me sick.He walked up to us at a slow pace and sat down on the chair he had sat down before which was close to where we sat down and he grinned again.I wanted to know if Carrie was okay. Is she? "Where is my child." I asked and his lips formed an 'O' "Oh, the little girl? Don't worry she is fine." The way he said it
"We need to talk." He replied before I could answer. Yeah, we need to talk.If only I could just remember at least a thing from last night. I blushed thinking about what we had done. I've been blushing a lot lately. "Hey, it's ready, you can come and eat now." I snapped my head up to see Layla.Two months later:It's been two months since that incident occurred, and it has been two months since Xavier and I have been together.My life has been pretty normal and I've got used to the fact that Xavier and I are together.I lay on my bed, I was sleepy, I've been sleeping a lot lately."Mommy." I heard a voice call. "Hmm?" I hummed still not getting up. "Mommy wake up." I couldn't bring myself up, I was so tired. "Mommy." She called again. It was so unlike her to call me like this. If everything was okay, she would've just laid on me.I opened my eyes slowly seating up. My eyes widened when I saw a guy looking at me amusedly. Jesus. "Finally up, sleeping beauty?" He mused. "I've always
What does this mean? Was my question now, does it mean we are a little voice cut off my thought."Mommy!" I turned around to see Carrie running up to me, I looked behind her, it was a smiling Xylia. Was she for real? She was so beautiful, beside her was a little girl's hand, she was so cute."What a great sight indeed, seeing you two together warms my heart. And we had a great time with Carrie, right Cara?" She asked the little girl beside her and she nodded her head frantically and giggled."I'm so sorry, I forgot about the meeting up with you after the dinner," I said as soon as I remembered what she had said earlier."Lily, you don't have to be sorry, I should be the one saying sorry here... I came at the wrong time, I'd go now." She said as she took a hold of Daisy's and Cara's hands."Hey, you-" before I could finish she had already walked out. "You wanted her to be here? At this moment?" No, but I wanted to get to know her. She is nice and seems fun to hang out with. "No, but
What does this mean though? Are we dating already? Of course not silly. Then why had he brought me here?"I-is that why you brought me here?""Yes.""Are we dating?" I don't know where that came from, it slipped out of my mouth.He looked amused. "No.""Then... W-why do I have to see them?""They wanted to see the lady I love." He said bluntly. Oh, a blush crept to my face. I smiled shyly, tucking my hair beside my ear. But then I remembered his mother.No doubt she hated me. I bent down and carried Daisy in my arm. "Come." He held my hand, i blushed harder.We stopped at a table. I noticed how his mother's smile dropped when she saw me.My stomach churned. "Dad, meet Lily..." He looked at me before he continued. "My girlfriend."His girlfriend?!"Such a beautiful young lady! Nice to meet you, I'm Xander." He introduced.No doubt he was a kind man, unlike his wife. She looked at me weirdly before faking a smile. "Nice to meet you again, Lily." She said.Xander raised an eyebrow at Car
We drove for like 40 mins, we stopped at a huge mansion. I thought we were going to a restaurant or something. He came out and walked passed me. I scowled.Holding Carrie's hand I trailed behind him. There were men in suits, they stood at the entrance of the house but they separated when I was about to pass. Whoa.I quickly passed, entering a big building, some people were arranging the hall, maybe they were going to be a party, I guess."Yeah, this is her." I saw Xavier talking to a lady, she nodded at me and motioned for me to follow her. I raised an eyebrow confusingly before I followed her.We reached a room, i walked in with her. Did he bring us here so we could sleep here? Of course not, why would he do that? I sat Carrie on the bed. "I suggest you go take a bath now." She said.Why? "I'd be right back." She walked out. I slapped my face frustratingly. I moved to the door where the bathroom must be. And there was a bathtub, I'm pretty sure they had kept something inside that wat
