The Orphan's Goddess

The Orphan's Goddess

“You are going to be my wife because of the agreement that your parents and my uncle Jack arranged. You can keep running your café business and I can make my uncle happy. It is a win-win situation for the both of us. Nothing's going to change really, you can do whatever you want and of course same goes with me. However, you are going to carry my surname. I won’t do anything to embarrass you and I expect that you will do the same.” I felt a knife stab my heart after saying those words, but it stung more when Lucy said “Of course, I completely understand. I know my role and I know my place. I may not be as rich as you are nor have the stage that you are on, but I am absolutely capable. Do not underestimate me Mr. Lowell or shall I say my future husband.”

Chapter: 77. It’s Just a Couple of Months
-Conner’s POV I arrived at Texas with a goal in my mind and that is to put an end to the feud I have with Bernard Yates and ensure the safety of Lucy and our baby. Alfred and I are on our way to Mr. Fredrick Ace to clarify the situation and make a deal with him to give the Phoenix project to Bernard Yates for a good reason. I entered Mr. Ace’s office and saw him sitting, waiting for me there. I lent my hand for a shake and greeted him, Mr. Ace, thank you so much for giving me your time. I know you have a lot on your plate and I am greatly honored for the chance that you gave me.” Mr. Ace took my hand and said, “I know you won’t fly here all of a sudden for no good reason. There’s something behind this and I intend to know what. So, Mr. Lowell what’s the catch?” He led us to the couch near his table for us to sit comfortably while we talk. I sat before I said, “Well, Mr. Ace I think you already know why I am here.” He smirked, “I might, but I want to be sure what you really

Chapter: 76. Comfortable When I’m Away
- Conner’s POVI felt my heart torn into pieces hearing Lucy say that she deserves freedom. That is something I dread to hear especially from her. I never wanted her to be free because I want her to be tied with me forever. She is my wife and I intend to keep it that way. But how? Now that she has become distant to me, I don’t know what to do. I went inside the bathroom to wash my face and looked at myself in the mirror. Lucy is right. The feud between me and Bernard Yates is not her burden to carry. To ensure Lucy and our baby’s safety I need to make Bernard stop bothering us. I need a master plan and I need to make it quick. I called uncle Jack and asked, “Hello uncle Jack, any news about Bernard Yates? Do you have something for me?” Uncle Jack answered from the other line, “Well, just like old times, your father’s bestfriend, Bernard Yates seems to be eyeing on the Phoenix Project. My boys told me that the proposal of Mr. Yates has the same content with the one that you

Chapter: 75. Not to Worry
Lucy’s POV-Is he trippin’? His voice is firm, but his eyes are soft. It’s an enchanting gaze like a spell was casted on me and just couldn’t say no. Ok fine, I get it. Better near than in the same room. Oh please Lucy, it’s all over your nerves. It’s almost obvious that it is screaming Conner’s name. Are you certain you wouldn’t go knocking on Conner’s door tonight to be in his arms, tough momma? The argument of my alter ego is just as annoying as ever. But I swear the endearment in his eyes are awfully tempting. Still, looks like I simply don’t have any choice, but to give in to Conner’s request. I crossed my arms across my chest, “You just don’t give me any choice, do you? This is all your fault! I shouldn’t be hiding this way and be fearing for the our safety if it wasn’t for your rivalry!” Suddenly my hormones are kicking in and I just want to put on a fight with Conner. “Mr. Conner Lowell! You better make this right! Straighten this mess that you made with that Bernard Yates so

Chapter: 74. I Want to Keep You Safe
-Lucy’s POV-I was uncertain, but even though I was, it felt right. His hand clasped on mine was as comforting as I remember. Agh! Never mind, for the baby. I’m accepting his comfort now for the sake of the baby nothing more. We entered the room together and as I laid down, I closed my eyes anxiously waiting to hear the heartbeat of my child. Lub-dub…Lud-dub. My eyes opened wide hearing the heartbeat of my baby for the very first time. Tears rolling down my cheeks seeing the little peanut inside my socket. So small yet so precious. It finally hit me that yes, I am going to become a mother. I was crying and didn’t realize that Conner was already embracing me crying as well. My thoughts went back to reality when I heard him whisper “You are going to become a great mother.” I slowly broke free from his embrace and distanced myself from him. I fixed my shirt when Dr. Ivy said, “Mr. and Mrs. Lowell I will be right back with the printed results of your baby. Congratulations to you both!” I

Chapter: 73. I Will Always Be
-Lucy’s POV- I am not sure if what I am doing is right especially that I will be using Chris again to escape from this whole mess that I am in, but I think that I don’t have any other choice. When I asked him if he could take me away he blinked a couple of times trying to digest and let everything sink in. When he figured things out, he held both of my arms and caressed them softly as he gave me a sweet smile. “Lucy, you are truly extraordinary. You never failed to amuse me.” Now, it was my turn to be confused. What is he trying to say? “You are smart woman.” He continued. “and since you are a smart woman. I think you know better that this is not the way to solve things out. We don’t want to do things that we might regret in the long run especially now that you have an angel inside your belly.” He gently placed his hand over my still small belly. Conner was trying to restrain himself from striding towards us and Ronald was quick enough to sense that for he placed his hand

Chapter: 72. Take Me Away
-Lucy’s POV-I slowly opened my eyes when I felt the warmth of the heat of the sun coming from the windowpane. My sight was still a little blurry and so I tried blinking a couple of times to clear my vision. My head was buzzing and I could hear voices talking not far from where I was laying. When my vision cleared I finally realized that I was in what it looked like a clinic. I shifted myself to a sitting position trying to get a glimpse of who the voices belonged to. I then saw Ronald and the doctor was right beside him. It looked like they were listening to somebody else. I was about to stand up when his eyes glanced at me, he immediately rushed towards me to assist me. “Lucy, be careful.” The doctor then followed him and checked on my vital signs. While the doctor was checking on me another figure came inside the room. It was Conner. My eyes widened at the sight of him. Oh for the love of the heavens! Why is he here?! Agh! Ronald! You’ve got some explaining to do! I looked at Ronal
