Beam together with his two best friends entered the grand hall to attend the birthday celebration of the Grey matriarch, Minerva Grey.
As expected it's a grandiose event grazed by elite members of society. Considering the social status of the Grey family, famous personalities swarmed the party. The family is an empire not only in the country but also in other continents.
Beam and his friends are just fortunate Theo adored them. They can attend these kinds of celebrations hosted by very famous and influential families.
The three were assigned to the table where Theo and some immediate family members of the celebrant are also seated. Beam is just not sure if Archer will be seated with them. Since they arrived Archer Grey has been with a group of respectable-looking gentlemen a
Beam's POV He looks so angry and it's breaking my heart, I'm afraid of what he will do. I look at Theo and my heart shatters seeing how his begging eyes are directed to me. But I felt so guilty, I felt so dirty, I didn't deserve his love. Why does that past keep on haunting me? Why can't it just be buried and be forgotten, why do I have to be reminded of it? Why does it have to destroy the little happiness I have now? I don't care what others think of me, I don't give a damn if they hate me, if they are disgusted with me. But Theo? I need Theo in my life. Chris and Kent approached and hugged me tightly. I know they under
"What are you trying to say, Archer?" Earth asked confusedly. "IVF? In-Vitro-Fertilization? But why? Are you weak, what I mean, is there a problem with your capability?" Earth continued grumbling while looking confused like the rest of us. "I thought you had someone back then so you had Theo" Carl muttered confusedly while staring at his nephew afar. "Why IVF? Why not with someone you could have a family with? Theo deserves a complete family. What is this all about Archer?" Minerva calmly asked. "You are Archer Grey, any woman would want to be with you. A lot of dignified families expressed their intention of offering their daughters. I would understand if you don't want to involve lo
Every pair of confused eyes turned to Archer. They are all looking at him like he lost his mind. "Theo is our son. Not just mine but also Beams. Ours" Archer repeated with conviction. "Son, you are confusing us all, please what is happening? You knew Dr. Beam even before Theo happened? The money? What about the money? Why are there pictures of Dr. Beam in your apartment in L.A.? Is that why you never allowed us to visit you there? Did you help Dr. Beam with his university? Archer? I don't know what to think anymore?" his mother exasperatedly threw him a series of questions. Beam is intently looking at Archer with nervous anticipation of what he might say. He almost chokes when Archer turns to look at him with his eyes that would always give him gooseb
"Yes, I do love you, the first time I saw you. I'm always there at the bar, Beam, watching you every night" Archer nodded and smiled while Beam remained speechless."It may sound unfair but I look up everything about you. Then I knew what you need and I'm so stupid to offer you that agreement. I wish I just courted you, maybe it made both our lives less complicated" Archer explained frustratedly while Beam stared at him in total disbelief."All this time, I thought you were just a cold-hearted bastard, uncaring and ruthless" Beam whispered, still too stunned to grasp everything."I'm not used to courting, I never court" Archer awkwardly murmured."You don't need to court though, women are flo
Beam and Archer went inside the suite room and instantly the nostalgia came rushing with such intensity.All the memories inside the room come rushing like a storm. Beam closed his eyes when Archer hugged him from the back. His scent is intoxicating as always, it seems like yesterday that they were together on his graduation night. It felt all too familiar, the room, his scent, and the way he held him."I went here a few days ago" Beam whispers."I'm always here every day. Every time I miss you, I would go here. I want to remember and feel how it is to be with you even just from the memories of this room. I want to feel you here, I want to smell your scent here and I want to see your memories in every corner" Archer mumbles in Beam's neck as he tightens his
The next day, the couple emerges from the suite room late in the afternoon. Beam is a little pale and exhausted from the whole night of lovemaking which is extended till midday."You okay love?" Archer worriedly asked after he helped him get inside the car. He grimaced before he found a comfortable position for this throbbing ass."Why did we do one year's worth of fucking if we will do it every day until our lifetime" Beam groaned while he rests his head on the headrest. He is too exhausted to even move. Archer worriedly watched Beam as he grimaced in pain, he didn't know what to answer Beam."Do you think we can increase the dosage of the painkiller you took?" Archer asked instead."I had a
"What happened?" Chris worriedly asked when Beam came back from the Human Resource Office."Termination paper" Beam smiled sadly, raising the paper in his hand."Termination? Of who?" Kent asked while he snatched the paper from Beam."Mine" Beam replied softly before he slumped on the couch in his clinic.He was called by the Human Resource Department earlier right after his patient rounds."What? Why? On what grounds?" Chris exclaimed in total confusion."Serious Misconduct due to Immorality? Are they serious? Is this even legal?" Kent exclaimed exasperated afte
Beam's problems did not stop from the unjust termination. Murmurs and a look of disgust welcomed him the instant he entered the hospital cafeteria. He doesn't have to hear what they were all talking about, he is sure it's about him and it's not pleasant.It's been a busy day and he needs a recharge. He ordered his usual drink and the cafe attendant gave him her usual sweet smile to his great relief. A grumpy food attendant is the least he needs now."Enjoy your coffee Dr. Beam, have a great day ahead" the woman warmly smiled at him."Thank you, auntie, you too, have a great day" Beam gave her a genuine smile before he turned away.While he walks towards the vacant seat, he can feel the drilli
Three years of living under the scrutiny of those few who still disdain their relationship. Three years of enjoying their life with their son, beloved family, and trusted friends. Three years of fruitful years for Dr. Beam Miller and CEO Archer Grey. Three years of celebrating their love as a happy family. Three years have passed and today, Grey Corporation and DelValle Group of Companies will open the door of the Touch of the Rainbow Paradise to the excited public. A large crowd has already gathered as they waited for the official opening of the biggest tourist attraction in the country today. Archer and Beam together with the DelValle family stood side by side facing the pool of people waiting for the grand opening. In front of several eyes, Archer
Theo is in Beam's arms while they walk towards a man who is so powerfully handsome for Beam's peace of mind.Beam chooses not to proceed but instead, he gestures to Theo to keep quiet as they sit down on the couch not far from that man. Theo thought they would be playing so he also stayed quiet and even put his index against his small lips."So what's your plan tonight Mr. Grey, I could accompany you, I'm so available" the lady who is trying her best to exude that alluring look waits for the man to acknowledge what she just suggested."I'm good, Miss...? What's your name again?" Archer asked even if he sounded unconcerned."Please call me Strawberry, Mr. Grey" the woman flutters her eyelashes and sweetly smile
Carl squinted his eyes at Archer who looked so pale while seated awkwardly at the couch. He dropped by to check on Theo but he found Archer at home. He continued to stare at his younger brother in silence before something dawned on him. "Beam got you good…" Carl muttered as he watched Archer's face grimace. "He is a beast too" Archer mumbled weakly without opening his eyes. Carl shook his head as he chuckled with Archer's awkward dilemma. "Have you taken a pill for pain?" Carl worriedly asked. "Yeah, I did. But I felt like I was beaten by ten men" Archer amusedly murmured. He felt miserable with his throbbing ass but
Even after a long moment, Archer can't stop thinking about what he discovered with the DelValle brothers. He stared at Park and Pete who are casually talking, with no trace of intimacy except for their tender look for each other. "Parkie looked like a hitman but he is as soft as cotton candy when it comes to Pete" Belle whispered to Archer when she caught him staring at the two men. Hearing what Belle said, Park glared at her but the woman just scoffed and rolled her eyes at him. She was never intimidated by Park. They were in a playful mood when Beam arrived but he stopped mid-step when he saw the woman on the table with Archer. "Dr. Belle Perez-DelValle?" Beam whispered in disbelief
Archer didn't see it coming, VMI has a son who is married to another man. After the VMI team left his office he remained to be thoughtful for quite a while together with his assistant and secretary. No one talked until Archer chuckled in pure disbelief. He was so worried about something he should not. After that day, Archer became more proactive. His team had overcome the threats of delays and the lack of suppliers. He had even made his team contact all suppliers to know their stand just to be sure that no more company would back out. The construction of the project is nearing and all was almost set. With the remaining months of preparation, the groundbreaking ceremony will be held. In two weeks the construction will start. One of the major investors of the project has al
Archer stared at the folders on his table. Three folders to be exact. He didn't talk for a long moment while his secretary was anxiously waiting at the side."These are all the proposals and quotations?" Archer calmly asked before he stared at the man who flinched on his feet."Ahm, it was actually seven, Mr. CEO, but we have narrowed it down. Those are the companies who met the requirements of the project" the secretary earnestly explained, even if he was nervous.Archer stared at him for a moment before he turned to the folders on his table. He is somewhat relieved that the response for the new bidding is quite good."Okay, I will review this and set an emergency meeting at two this afternoon. I
Beam went home early and he had already finished with his shower when Archer entered their bedroom looking so troubled. Instantly, he knew something was not right. Like him, his husband had a not-so-great day."Hello love, how was your day?" Beam walked to Archer who looked so worn out. He helped him loosen his tie and took off his coat."Not that great, love, but I'm fine, now that you are here with me" Archer playfully replied with a smile even if his face looked tired and haggard."Cheesy…" Beam scoffed but smiled sweetly at his husband."I'm not being corny, my day would always turn brighter, whenever you are around, Beam" Archer seriously muttered while caressing Beam's handsome face. B
Archer received his visitors at his office with his usual serious expression. Grey Corporation is about to sign a contract with the supplier of the glass materials for the Grey Hotel and Casino project that would be started in three months. It is so far the latest huge project of GC with another company as the investor. In two weeks the two companies will be signing the contract and three months after, the construction will be started.Archer has secured all contracts with different construction materials suppliers. The construction company that will handle the construction was also contracted and is a company under Grey Corporation.Today, he will be finalizing the contract with GlassCom Corporation as the supplier for all their glass materials."I noticed
A week after Beam and Archer's beach wedding, the family released some selected photos of the wedding to chosen few media companies. The photos are accompanied by a short letter of information regarding the event which shook those who have received it first."CEO Archer Grey married another man?" one of the media company presidents exclaimed in total disbelief. The photos are scattered on his desk as he stared at it in bewilderment. He was so stunned for a while before he snapped out.He hurriedly grabbed the phone on his desk and did his meticulous instruction to his staff to air the news instantly. He is not sure how many media companies the Greys have sent the documents but they need to act quickly. They have to be the first to report the greatest news that would surely shake the whole country.
