Chapter 16 Press conference

Penulis: BELLA
last update Terakhir Diperbarui: 2023-10-20 15:05:41

As soon as we entered the press conference hall the flash of the cameras caused me to go blind for a moment. I was already nervous so this glimmering attention made me even more nauseous.

My heart pounded in my chest and all I could hear was the murmurs of the reporters. My chest heaved when I gathered up the courage to look around the hall and my eyes met with some of the reporters. They were a lot.

The thought of running from there crossed my mind faster than anything. I don't think I can handle all this tension.

"It's alright, don't worry they're not gonna eat you," I felt a warmth touching my hand as Lorcan intertwined our hands before I could pass out. We need to show intimacy between us to show everyone how much we love each other. "Just don't mess up anything."

I don't want to admit but his fake support did help me to calm down. I tightly squeezed his hand to quiet down my nerves. But he doesn't need to know that.

As we settled in our seats the reporters didn't waste any time a

  • Wrong Surrogacy For The Devil CEO   Chapter 17 Bastard father

    I felt like the sky was falling down on me when I saw my father standing there with an evil smile. My world started to shake just by his mere sight of existence."How the hell did he get here?" I muttered under my breath in disbelief. How did he find out my whereabouts?Even though this is the first time I'd seen him since I left the house, it was enough to make me start shaking right away. And his smile. He still has that same smile on his face when he used to beat and abuse my mother and me. I never wanted to see that malicious smile of his again. Or even him."Throw this guy out!" I heard Lorcan ordering his man in a hushed voice that only his men could hear him."Right away boss,"He left my side and went to make sure that my father was out of the hall.I was afraid of Lorcan's rage, which I could feel from far away. I didn't want to ruin the conference in that manner because of me. Now, I have to deal with his anger as well. I'm on the verge of collapsing. It was challenging to c

    Waking up to the comfortable silence, my body still feels heavy and tired. I feel a headache as if someone was hammering inside it. I winced as my eyes sting when I finally blinked them.My father's words kept on echoing in my mind making my headache even worse. No matter how hard I tried, every time his words managed to penetrate that part of my sanity which I strained to get attacked, I couldn't help but want to break down.Roaming my face around I found Grandma standing by my side."Hey, dear," She let out gently before putting her hand on mine and rubbing soft comforting strokes. "How are you feeling now?" She asked as the memories of the press conference came rushing back to me. I tried to get up but she refused. "No, no keep lying dear you need rest.""I'm sorry for what happened at the press conference, Grandma," I whispered out in a low voice. My throat was sore, maybe it was a nightmare or I really cried all night. I couldn't tell. "I'm sure you must have so many questions to

  • Wrong Surrogacy For The Devil CEO   Chapter 19 Not for her

    Lorcan's Pov.When I walked out of the hospital in the morning, I immediately called my friend who was in the mafia. I don't think I can just sit by and allow all of this to happen after witnessing Rosalyn scream and cry nonstop all night long due to her nightmares in which she kept pleading with Nick to stop hurting her.That shit made me furious. No matter how hard I tried to wipe her tears she kept on fucking crying.If anything happens to that surrogate then it will also affect my child's health. I would kill them all if the doctor had said that the child was in danger.Even now I'm not doing all this for Rosalyn's but because of my child. I don't care what happens to her but she needs to be fine as long as she's carrying my child."Hello?" I let out when my friend picked up the phone."Hey, Lorcan, my friend. How are you doing? It's been so long?" Damien said and I heard some noises in the background."I'm good, what about you?" Opening the door I got into my car and nodded to th

    Rosalyn's pov."And I have also dealt with him.""Deal with him? How? You kill him?" I could only stare at his smug face. No wonder he looks like he's getting back after doing something outrageous.“Are you still worried about him?” Lorcan asked, his deep voice gives me chills.“Of course not, I’m not worried about him, I just don't want make any trouble to you again.”"Don't worry I haven't killed him yet," He casually announced as if he was talking about the most everyday matter not killing someone.“T-that’s good then.” I replied.He took a file and showed it to me. "Divorce agreement, sign them." He pulled back and sat beside me.I quickly opened it and there was Nick's signature. Also, the house clearly belonged to me now.It was so unbelievable that I had to look between the papers and at him. Why would he go to such lengths for me? This is the first time someone has helped me. Since now I was living alone, so I never got to experience what it is like to be protected by someone.

  • Wrong Surrogacy For The Devil CEO   Chapter 21 Who should apologise?

    "WHAT?!" I pushed him away angrily and glared at him.Lorcan grunted furiously before gripping my jaw but I didn't quit the glare. "How dare you to push me?"I could see the indifference in his eyes, the gentleness can nowhere to be found which was there formerly. In his eyes, I'm still just a commodity that can be traded.I was too stupid to imagine that Lorcan can be trusted with feelings. He never cared about anyone. He only knew how to use someone and make a good trade using their weak points.How stupid that I was even thinking Lorcan was different and feeling grateful for this man for going out of his way and fighting with Nick for me."What make you think that I will sell my body?"I looked dead in his eyes, eyes that were still shining with lust. But there was one more emotion present there, and that was arrogance.The arrogance of not giving a fuck about someone else's feelings. Men are assholes, my ex-husband, my father, and now this man is no different."I never said to sel

    Rosalyn's pov.I got discharged from the hospital the next day. Lorcan didn't come to see me after he left angrily yesterday.I don't want to admit it but I was upset when he didn't return to my side. It made me unbearably upset just thinking about how he left. But it was his fault and ego so I won't give in.I couldn't sleep the whole night, my mind kept on wandering around the thought of where he would have spent the night. I couldn't help but overthink the worst scenario.What if he went to look for someone to sleep with after I rejected him?The thought made my stomach churn in apprehension. I scoffed as my mood was ruined even more. I shouldn't have let him leave with blue balls. Him touching someone else with the same hands he touched me makes my blood boil.But it's not like I can do anything. If he wanted to go fuck around, he's free to do so. He clearly told me yesterday to not be deluded and get my hopes up, so I will try my best to stick to his words."Have a good day, mada

    "Will they follow us here?" I worriedly asked about the reporters, inconspicuously eyeing around as we made our way into the restaurant.Lorcan slid his hand around my waist to bring me closer. "They won't but we should still look like a real couple just in case."I quickly nodded, my heart beat faster as he leaned to me closer.No! Wake up, Rosa! He's the devil that I shouldn't fall for!"Good evening Sir, good evening madam. This way sir. Your reserved private booth is ready," a waiter told Lorcan as soon as he saw him.Lorcan simply nodded as we followed the waiter.The restaurant we came to for the date was the most luxurious and glamorous place I have ever seen. It's high-end decoration and accommodating atmosphere feels like a sight to behold.I never expected that I would have dinner in such a luxury restaurant. In my past life, going to a restaurant was only an occasional reward after a tired work time, and spending my one month's salary to eat a meal is something I never dare

    Lorcan laughed at me. "Make sure to maintain this strength then because you will need a whole lot in the future," he added while eating."Of course I will, because one thing I'm sure of and confident about is, that I can do anything for my baby," I assured him with a determined face.He stopped eating and glanced at me. His unreadable face was quite scary but I didn't quit the glare either."Seems like you have adapted the CEO's wife's lifestyle pretty well, stubborn and preserving. Impressing," he nodded without much expression.My expression also became cold. "I have learned my lesson from my past failure, that is, never be a weak person again," I told him firmly."Good," he nodded in satisfaction looking deeply into my eyes."My woman…," His words made my heart stop for a second. No matter how much I told my heart that it was just an act and for the sake of his company, I couldn't help but feel happy.

The view was breathtaking as well as the person walking besides me.Lorcan dragged me away from the venue to steal a moment alone for us. The soft sand under my feet felt cool and soothing. Lorcan was wrapping his arm around my waist holding me close, as if he never wanted to let me go. And it was the same for me.The moment was just so calming and magical. We finally had our wedding not just on paper but with traditional rituals as well. I was trying to control my happiness but I just couldn't.

    Rose's pov.Olivia and Liam were extremely excited when we announced that we would be taking them to Grandma's house."Grammy has a big playroom, mama!" Liam was having a hard time controlling his happiness. Grandma had done so much for them in her house. She loved to spoil them.We have to leave to visit a Resort and see if it would be good for our next shooting location. The owner knows Lorcan and invited us for a two night stay. So, grandma suggested that the kids would stay with her, she was missing them as well."Everything ready?" Lorcan showed up in the doorway."Yeah, Please pick Oli's water bottle from the kitchen counter and we are ready to go," I said, handing him the kid's bag that I packed. Liam ran after him."Come here, love," Picking up Oli, I left the room as well.We arrived at Grandma's house in an hour, and she greeted us with warm hugs and smiles. "Oh, my little monster!""Grammy!

    Rose's pov.Six years later."Higher, daddy, higher!" Olivia squealed, laughing excitedly.Lorcan chuckled, giving the swing an extra push. "Hold on tight, sweetie."I watched them with a smile as my little girl giggled with delight. It was the best view ever, seeing my baby playing happily with her father.Life had never been busier for both of us, so we get less time to spend with our kids. Our busy schedules keep us occupied. However, we are trying to strike a perfect balance between our professional work and our roles as loving parents to our two angels.

The thought still gives me chills. Lorcan,

    Lorcan's pov.I rushed Rose to the hospital. She had fainted and bled a lot of blood.Panic and fear creeped my heart and soul and it was heightening with each passing second. I have never felt so much fear, I have never felt so helpless.Everything was going great so why this suddenly!I anxiously waited outside the emergency room while both Rose and my child were fighting with death inside. I paced back and forth, my hands couldn't stop trembling, every minute felt like an eternity.After who knows how long, the red light switched off and the doctor came out."How is Rose, doctor?!" I hurriedly asked, my palms getting sweaty.He sighed with a solemn expression, taking out his face from his reports and looking at me. My heart thumping rapidly, threatening to come out of my throat. "Mr. Lorcan we have examined your wife, and the blow she received was on her stomach," he told me, increasing my heartbeats. "It had caused severe internal

Grandma has shifted in with us because it could be any day that I would have my baby now.Mom and grandma are taking care of me as my morning swings and random stomach pain have gotten worse.

    Rose's pov.Amidst the chaos, I prepared for the most important day of my life.My wedding day.As much as it sounds magical, I was shivering from the nervousness. I still couldn't believe it was finally happening. I'm marrying Lorcan, the love of my life.It was a destination wedding. We arrived here in a coastal town two days ago. And I'm just enjoying its sandy shores and tall palm trees that swayed in the ocean breeze.The venue was a stunning beachfront resort, decorated with delicate white drapes swaying in the wind and fragrant flowers in shades of pink and lavender gracing every corner. The ceremony area was set with an elegant wooden arch entwined with fresh flowers.I was waiting inside my bridal suite. I was surrounded by my mother and grandmother. I was wearing the gown Lorcan selected for me. And he had complimented me so much that I was feeling confident."You look so pretty, baby," Mom smiled with wet eyes. I couldn't b

    Lorcan's pov.I stepped inside the house. I rushed here on grandma's call. Rose, my beautiful wife is on it again. It's been happening for a few days now. No matter how much I tried to indulge her, she believed that she would not look good in her wedding dress due to her belly."Lorcan, thank god you're here," Grandma met me with her usual warm smile.Giving her a hug, I asked. "Where's Rose?""She was feeling self-conscious again. She's in her room right now."I sighed in worry and made my way to our bedroom. I softly knocked on the door. "Rose, love, it's me. Open the door."No response.I took a deep breath and tried again. "Can I come in...sweetheart?" I called with more tenderness.And finally a choked voice came out. "Y-Yes, come in."Opening the door, I stepped into the room and saw her seated on the edge of the bed, surrounded by so many breathtaking wedding dresses. Her eyes were slightly red, my heart broke to

    Rose's pov.I was working to get my mind off Meera when I received a call from the receptionist downstairs. "Hello?""Madam, there's a woman here who insists she's your mother and wants to see you urgently," the receptionist informed hesitantly. "Should I send her to you?"I frowned, unable to believe her. I hadn't seen or spoken to my mother in months. After our relationship soured because of her stubbornness of not leaving my abusive father, I forced myself to leave her own fate. Last time, when she came to meet me, it was to beg me to ask Lorcan to let him know what he did in the press conference.I am worried about what she is doing here today."Please let her in," I instructed her. My chest suddenly tightened. I don't know why after being ignored by her I still feel responsible towards her for all the time she had been there to save me from my father's beatings despite her own past pain.Someone escorted her to my office.

    Rose's pov.I was on my way to the company when I got a call from grandma. She is so excited from the news that Lorcan and I are getting married. She had already called the designer and wanted me to try on a few dresses.I don't want a grand wedding, a simple one is fine with me. But since both Lorcan and grandma wanted a grand wedding, I guess I can do that for them. They both are very important to me.The car suddenly stopped in front of the company and I carefully got out of the car. I'm only allowed to work for a week after that I'll stay at home until I give birth. Lorcan said he doesn't want to take risks.As I approached the company's entrance, I noticed a figure standing near the entrance. I stilled upon recognising the face.It was Meera. But what is she doing here? Lorcan said she won't ever come back as he warned her strictly not to interfere in our life. He even fired her from the company, so what does she want now?However, I de
