Chapter 37
I bite my lips as I drive to the nearest hospital. I can’t even think straight as the moment I saw the result keeps rushing back into my mind.
My heart is beating fast as I arrive and I didn’t even notice that I already parked my car… for all I know I’ve been parking here for a minute now not being able to get out of the car… I’m scared but I’m here already.
I put on my mask and cap before going out of my car and I look around feeling the thump of my heart as I enter the hospital. I can hear everything, the clicking of the shoe on the floor, the smell of the alcohol and the distinct voices from the people near me.
The moment I arrive at the right floor my hands begin to shake and I didn’t even told my OB before hand that I was coming and good thing her secret
Chapter38Pearl’s POVI cover my mouth and as my tears began to fell. I just read the news about Luke’s father and I can’t imagine what’s happening right now to him. I want to go to him and be the one to comfort him but I can’t do that. I called Ana but she won’t answer it… I have a hint that she’s busy.The news mention that she was having dinner together with them when Luke’s father jump on top of the building, I don’t know the reason but first of all why is Ana meeting them?I have so much question and ever since my agreement with Ana everything began to become chaotic… I don’t want to blame her but why do I feel like this is all connected to her?“When can I go out? I can walk now, and I don’t want to stay he
Chapter39 Part 1Luke’s POVI hugs her tightly and she shake my head and try to push me away. I’m scared, what if she decides to leave me? I didn’t mean to make her feel this way. I was just being nice to the person and I wasn’t flirting, if she hasn’t notice we were talking about our marriage… she gave me advice and the woman is the same age as her mother, and even so I would never cheat on her.“I’m sorry, love. I thought you wanted space.”“So, you flirt with the one that you can talk?”I shake my head. “I’m sorry.” I said again and again and kiss her in the forehead.She got tired of crying and I made her lay on my chest and carry her bridal style. She started to punch me on the chest but
Chapter39 Part 2“Mom, calm down. She’s a friend.” I said that made mom look at me angrily.“I can’t believe this is happening.” She whispered upon angrily looking at dad and dad is just looking at Lauren… wait no they are looking at each other with a poker faces.“Is there something wrong?” I look at dad but he smiles at me.“No, honey.” He looks at Lauren and back to me. “She’s an old friend we never heard from.”“It’s good to see you Milliano.” She smiles and look at mom and smirk. “You’re still the same Annaliese.”“What is that suppose to mean?”I can’t help but smile at their interaction,
Chapter40“Where did you get this information?”“There was an article before that Lauren was trying to gain custody of her daughter and at the same time there was a fight between your mother and her… and I try to find more article and I found out that she had a miscarriage but when I went to the hospital there were no record and that’s when I found that.”I nodded and not being able to process this all. Is this why she went to me? She wants to get close to me and maybe that’s the reason why mom and dad was so such to see her at the house. They were tension and I missed that.“Thank you for this.”I left the cafe floating, when Evan was experiencing this I didn’t know how to comfort him and just told him everything will be okay and that h
Chapter41My mind is hire wired with curiously when I I left Lauren and dad to talk and even though I wanted to stay so badly I couldn’t because they have the right for their privacy… I thought of asking Lauren tomorrow but that would mean I’m being nosy. I didn’t even notice that I have arrive home, when I open the entrance door my eyes widen and I couldn’t hide my smile the moment I enter the house.“What is this?” I laugh at Luke when he handed me a bouquet of flowers. “I don’t recall that today is a special day.” We hugged each other tight and he kiss my forehead and didn’t let go of my waist and look at me and didn’t say anything. I pouted and pinch his cheeks. “You’re so cliche.” I said with a smile.“Admit it, you like it too.” He
Chapter42“Is everything okay here?”Luke and I are looking at each other when Pearl appears between us. She hold my arm to check me and I was still looking at Luke and now he’s looking at his wife…while pouting.I look away and face Pearl. “Yeah.” I nodded and give my attention to Luke. “Thanks… for saving me.” I said in a whisper and I can’t even look at him.“That’s enough. We should go home.” I rolled my eyes at Ezra when he appears out of nowhere and put his arms around my shoulder. “You’re drunk, I’ll take you home.” I gave Luke and Pearl a final look and when I saw that they’re looking at each other and communicating with their eyes I look away and back to Ezra.“Let&rsq
Chapter43What the hell is happening right now? My mind is full of questions and I need to know what is happening before I’m going to be crazy thinking about what is this all about.I can’t hear what they’re talking about but base on their expression, things aren’t good. I already erase the thought that Luke’s dad might be the mastermind of trying to kill me but the thought that Luke might be part of this scares me. What if that was really the case? I haven’t proven that his dad isn’t innocent yet as he’s still part of the list of suspects but what if they’re both in it together… and the question is why?“What are you thinking?”I look at Ezra who sat beside me. I can’t work with all these thoughts and I have
Chapter44 Part 1 I hold my necklace tight as I drive myself to the bar… I’m wearing two different necklaces… the one he gave me wasn’t expose but why do I feel like he knows something? I’m kind of scared. I know I should have given this necklace to Pearl but it’s the only thing that I have that resonate the human that Luke and I created.“What are you thinking?” I jump at my seat. I look around and I didn’t even realize that I’m already at the parking lot.“Nothing.” I said to Ezra as I go down from the car.He didn’t say anything as we went inside the bar… it’s already packed with people and the music isn’t as wild as it’s going to be later… We sat on the bar stood and ask for dri
