Chapter 50: Kiss, Please

JULIA Evan and I sat at the corner, half-hidden from the bustling party. Andy looked visibly happier now, his laughter ringing out in the venue as he ran around with his classmates. “He seems like a great boy,” Evan muttered with a faint smile.“He is,” I said with conviction. “He truly is.” The two of us were silent for a moment before Evan cleared his throat. “I wasn’t sure what he likes,” he admitted. “So, I just brought this monster plushie.” My eyes widened. “Evander,” I said, not forgetting to call him by his government name. “These are designer plushies.” He pursed his lips. “I told Rui to get me what kids like.” I shook my head. “I swear, you really don’t know a thing about children. These are collectibles. Do you even know how much these cost?" I asked. He didn't answer. “Rui,” he muttered, shaking his head. “Funnily enough, he doesn’t like these things. He likes cars—as you can see by the theme of the party,” I glanced at him, noting how his brow furrowed slightly

Chapter 51: Promises

JULIA The two of us froze after Andy said those words. The crowd was shocked for a moment before they began to tease Evan and me. Sarah shrugged. "Well, this is a game where the birthday boy gets what he wants." I pursed my lips and gave Sarah a sharp look. Then, I shook my head. "I think we should play a different game." "This is our last game," Sarah innocently said. "And Andy only wants one thing for this game. Right, Andy?" My little boy nodded, looking at both of us with wide eyes. I subtly glared at Sarah, but she just raised her hands in surrender, humor seen in her expression. She added fuel to the fire when she suddenly started chanting. "Kiss!" "Kiss!" My relatives, who swore Evan was out of my league, started joining in, too. I thought they said we didn't match together! Why can't they make up their minds? Gianna and Harper looked at me with amused expressions, cheering loudest among the rest. Andy wasn't helping with his almost-teary expression. I sighed and r

Chapter 52: Test the Heir

EVANDER I couldn’t help but smile as I drove to my office. The day was nearly over, but I reckoned I could get some work done before I headed home. I parked the car and got out, entering the elevator, still with a smile on my face. “Son,” I muttered, the word tasting foreign on my lips. I had a son now…and it was with Julia. For some reason, that didn’t dampen my smile. However, as the elevator rode up, I remembered the story she had told. The day I broke up with her was the day she wanted to tell me she was pregnant. I pursed my lips and felt a pang of guilt in my chest. Despite everything that went down in our relationship, I knew that what I did was wrong. I shook my head and walked out of the elevator to go to my office. I glanced at Rui’s office and found it empty. Well, it was beyond work hours, so he must have gone home. However, the lights inside were still on. I frowned. Did he forget to turn off the lights? I opened the door, expecting it to be empty. However, inste

Chapter 53: Another Party?

JULIA The door creaked open, and I walked into the classroom. Somehow, I felt a little bit anxious. I knew this wasn’t high school anymore, and people didn't mind others' business as much…or it was probably the stress that didn’t allow them to even think of other people to that extent. However, I just felt that they would still react if they knew about what happened at the Astor residences. As I stepped inside, though, some lifted their heads but quickly went back to their personal conversations. I sighed in relief. No one seemed to know. Well, if word got out, then I bet Heather would also be affected, so it might have been put under the rug for that reason. “Good morning, Julia,” Gianna greeted. Harper looked up and smiled before going back to her mobile game. “Good morning,” I greeted back, sitting next to them and bringing out my materials. Just then, Heather walked into the classroom. As soon as she entered, her gaze caught mine. It felt like it was her first objective of

Chapter 54: Delivery Guy

JULIA I walked out of the classroom while reading the contents of the envelope. A party at the Astoria Grande? One of the most prestigious hotels in the city? Oh, and of course, the hotel was owned by none other than Evan again. What was this all about? The main question was—why me, of all people? Was Mr. Matthews that excited to see my artwork? “Ah, whatever,” I said, tucking the envelope into my bag. As I rounded the corner toward the cafeteria, I spotted Heather leaning against the wall near the vending machine. I paused in my tracks, and it seemed like she noticed. Her gaze locked onto me immediately, and her lips pressed into a tight line. I looked around. It was only the two of us in the hallways. I hesitated for a moment but realized that this may be the best time to apologize—even if Harper and Gianna told me I hadn’t done anything wrong. I really didn’t want the misunderstanding to grow between us. As much as I wasn’t fond of her personality, she was still Evan’s gir

Chapter 55: Lost

JULIA The bell had rang, but Mrs. White held her hand up. Normally, the students would have complained. However, this was Mrs. White we were talking about. Those who complained were punished. “As you all know, your projects are due this week,” she said, reminding everyone. “To be precise, the final deadline is on Wednesday. I expect them to be on my desk by then. No excuses. I’ve already received submissions from several early passers, and I appreciate the initiative.” “Another reminder that those who did not do their fair share of work in the project will receive a zero, and those who pass late will get a 50% deduction for each day.” I swear her eyes went to me briefly before moving on. My eyebrows raised in surprise. I hadn’t done anything in particular to piss her off, did I? As soon as she was out the door, I went to Heather. Despite our heated conversation a while ago, we were still partners for this forsaken project. “Heather,” I called, standing in front of her to preven

Chapter 56: I'm Here

EVAN “Sir,” Rui said, peeking his head inside the room. He had a hopeful look in his eyes, causing me to smirk. I didn’t let him finish the question before I spoke. I nodded and waved him off. “Yeah, you could go.” He was silent for a while before he entered the room and straightened his posture. “Are you sure, sir? You still have a lot of work to do.” “I know,” I said, massaging the bridge of his nose. “I can’t even afford to miss one day because of this event,” he muttered. “So, should I stay?” he asked. “You’re going to be working overtime again.” I shook my head. “It’s your mom’s birthday, right? Go ahead and spend the rest of the day with her.” “Are you really sure?” I stopped what I was doing and faced him, a small smile playing on my lips. “Go now before I decided to deduct the remaining hours from your salary.” He smiled. “Thank you, sir. I’ll be here early tomorrow.” “Yeah, yeah,” I waved him off. “Oh, my gift is in the red car. Use it to go to your mom, too. I know

Chapter 57: His Comfort

JULIA Time seemed to slow down as Evan held me. It felt like his presence could calm me down in the midst of my panic. My forehead rested against his chest, and for a moment, the loudness in my mind was replaced by the sound of his heartbeat. He kept muttering comforting words into my ears, so I relaxed even more in his arms. We stood there for a while, my eyes closed as I relished in his embrace. When I opened my eyes, I caught sight of Ellie standing a few feet away, her arms crossed and a fond smile playing on her lips. The sight of her brought me back to reality, and I pulled away from Evan, quickly wiping my tear-streaked cheeks.Evan frowned as he watched me move away. Ellie, on the other hand, continued looking at us with a teasing grin. I cleared my throat and looked down at the ground. “Thanks for coming here,” I muttered. “Are you alright now?” he asked. I pursed my lips before shaking my head. “I’m scared,” I admitted quietly, glancing at him. Evan nodded, his eyes

Chapter 58: The Culprit

JULIA "Doctor, are you done?" I asked, my voice strained. "...and one last stitch," the doctor muttered. He cut what I assumed was the suture. "I just need to clean it again, then I'd call Mr. Astor to fetch—" I didn't let the doctor finish his statement. Instead, I jumped out of bed, placed my shoes on—thank goodness, they were slip-ons—and ran away from the minor operating room. "Miss Julia!" the doctor exclaimed, still holding onto the remaining suture and scissors. However, I ignored him and continued on with my way. It was a faint shout. However, I was sure. That was Andy. My Andy. I walked through the hallways like a madman until the screams became louder. "I want my mommy! Please let me go to my mommy," Andy sobbed. My heart raced as I found his voice getting closer and closer. Then, that was when I saw him. "Shut up, you little gremlin. We'll bring you back to your school after this one. Don't be so stubborn," a big guy said. I didn't hesitate. Despite the ache in m

Chapter 59: I Want Andy

JULIA Andy was still trembling in my arms. The news didn’t come as a surprise for me. Of course, I was telling the truth. Why would I deliberately go through this if Andy wasn’t Evan’s son? Garyn looked overjoyed, while Evan appeared relieved. My focus was on Andy, though, who cried harder in my arms. I rubbed his back in slow circles, whispering softly to him, “It’s okay, bub. I’m here. I’ve got you.” But his tears didn’t stop, and every quiet hiccup he made chipped away at my already fragile heart.Garyn stood nearby, observing the scene with an expression I could only describe as disapproving. “He shouldn’t cry,” Garyn said with all seriousness. “Crying is a sign of weakness. And he’s no ordinary boy now—he’s an heir. Our heir.”I glared at him, feeling my hate for him increase even more. Without thinking, I tightened my arms around Andy and gently covered his ears, shielding him from Garyn’s harsh words. “Don’t you dare talk about him like that,” I snapped.Garyn’s eyes na
