Amelia woke up from the sound of birds outside of their room. She opens her eyes and sees the empty space beside her. 'He must have already gone to work' she thought as she slowly gets up and sees Helga and Maisy preparing her clothes for the day.
"Good morning, miss!" Maisy greets with a warm smile.
Helga turns her head to Amelia's direction. "Good morning, miss Lia" she greeted.
"Good morning Maisy and Helga," Amelia said with a small smile. She stood up from the bed and stretched her arms.
"Is Damian already at the company?" Amelia asked.
Earlier the night, Damian informed her of the meeting that will take place at his company. Because of the issue, all the shareholders were forced to participate in an emergency meeting to help resolve the issue.
"Will you be alright?" Amelia asked anxiously. Her head was resting at Damian's arm as they both were laying down side by side at the large bed.
"I'll be fine. I'm sure they're too s
The door opens and Amelia braced herself. Amelia's parents turn their heads as they looked at their pregnant daughter entering the room."Amelia," her mother said with a sad smile.Both of them stood up and walks towards their daughter. Amelia bit her lip, preparing herself for anything that could happen.Amelia's gaze was still on the floor when she felt the warm embrace of her mother. Her eyes widened in surprise at her mother's unexpected response. "We love you, our sweet Lia. We always do" her mother whispered softly while gently tightening her embrace.Amelia tears up at her mother's words. She started to cry as she returns her mother's hug. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry" She said repeatedly while gripping her mother's clothes."Shh, it's okay. It's not your fault" her mother calmly said as she caresses her daughter's hair.Amelia's father wraps his arms around the two. "She's right, sweetie. It's not your fault" he said as he wore a tender smi
Amelia and her parents were eating as they talk about Amelia's life in the mansion."That Damian, he's really rich isn't he?" Her mother said as she glances around the large dining room that could fit at least 20 people."Eh, yes" Amelia replied casually as she sat down at her usual place. Her parents, as well, sat down in front of her. Lily served them the food and they started to eat."So, tell us about your life here. Have you been doing well? What do you usually do?" her father asks, bombarding Amelia with questions."I've been well. I usually just spend time reading or watching movies while I wait for Damian to come home from work" Amelia answered as she took a bite from the meat."Does Tara know about your pregnancy?" her mother asked.Amelia gave a small nod. "Yes. She was the first to know" she added."I see," her mother said as she puts a piece of vegetable in her mouth."Why didn't you tell us? We would've helped you.
Amelia's parents had already left the mansion as they had important matters to attend to. Morana had decided to stay at the mansion for a few days to spend time with Amelia. Amelia and her mother-in-law were now in the garden, taking a walk as they wait for Damian's arrival. Alfred and Amelia's maids were walking 6 feet away behind the two.Morana's arms were linked around Amelia's as she smiles brightly at her soon-to-be daughter-in-law. "Is it hard to walk?" she asked.Amelia slowly shakes her head. "It's fine" she answered."Really? When I was pregnant it was really hard for me to walk. My son was such a big baby, you see" Morana said as she laughs sweetly.Amelia smiled. "What is he like when he was younger?" she asked."Oh, he was such a bratty kid, you know. He would always cause trouble wherever he went. He was really loud and naughty as a kid. And when he became an adult he started to bed all these girls that I don't even know and then he w
Damian had already finished the meeting. Because he had already planned what to do in events like this, he was able to keep his composure and shut the mouths of the shareholders. His anger rose when he recalls what the people said about Amelia. 'Fuckers' he thought as he tightens his grip on the steering wheel.Damian arrived at the mansion where he parked at the garage. He made his way to the door and was greeted by Alfred. "Welcome back, sire" he greeted."Anything new while I'm gone?" Damian asked as he lets Alfred take his coat and his accessories from him."Well, the madam is visiting today. She told us that she'll be staying for a few days" Alfred reported.Damian's brows knitted together at the sudden news. "Mother is here? Where are they?" he asked.Alfred told him that they were currently in the living room. Damian immediately went to the living room to greet Amelia as well as his mother. He wasn't anxious that his mother and Amelia were a
Ivote and Grey were currently at the place where they had promised to meet the last time that they talked. It was a casino that Grey owns where Damian's radar wouldn't reach them. A waiter designated to serve the VVIP placed a tray of drinks on the table in front of them. He then quietly left the private room where the two were staying."The thing about the media won't last long now that Damian had the statements of his fiancée’s parents. We need to think of another plan. A plan that would destroy him for good" Grey started."Why don't we kill him?" Ivote asked while looking at Grey.Grey laughs at his statement. "Killing him won't be easy" he stopped to think for a second. "Unless...we had a spy that directly worked for him" he continued."I'm going to need a list of all the people that work for him. Only the servants in his mansion that are close to him. I'm going to find a small crack" Grey said to Ivote.Ivote nodded slowly and kep
Charlie went back to the mansion with a sullen look on his face. He felt something heavy on his chest as he thought about betraying the man who helped him in his dark days. He sighs as he looks in front of him while walking back to the mansion. After a few minutes of walking, he finally reaches the gate of the mansion wherein he finds Helga, the head maid who was also on a day off that day.“Coming back from your job interview?” Helga asked while opening the gate.“Ah, yes” Charlie replied in a quiet voice.“What’s wrong? It didn’t go well?” Helga asked after noticing the look on Charlie’s face.“No, it went well,” Charlie said while walking with Helga by his side to the main door.“Then, what’s with the look on your face?” Helga asks while looking at Charlie.“Nothing” Charlie replied and went on ahead to avoid more questions from Helga. He
Amelia and Damian ate while talking when they hear Rea’s voice at the distance. “Mommy!” Rea shouted which made them turn to see what it was about. They see Arthur and Rea walking towards the woman whom Amelia had seen at the park. The father and daughter greeted the woman who was smiling warmly with a kiss.“What a lovely family” Amelia said as she looks at them with envy.“We’re going to be a family soon, don’t worry,” Damian said and smiled at her.Amelia nodded without saying anything and continued eating. After a few seconds, Damian sees Arthur walking towards them with his wife and daughter.“Ian, you’ve met Zelena before right?” Arthur said.Damian nodded before standing up and shaking hands with Zelena. “It’s been a while,” he said with a polite smile.Amelia stood up as well and gave a smile to Zelena. “Hello, I’m Amelia,&rdqu
Amelia stares at the framed photograph of her and Damian that was hanged by the servants on the wall by the grand staircase of the mansion. Damian had told Alfred to hang the photo where everyone can see it easily so Alfred chose the empty spot by the staircase.Amelia noticed that Damian’s eyes weren’t facing the camera and instead, it was glued onto her. ‘Why was he looking at me?’ Amelia asked in her mind before walking away back to the library with Helga and Maisy on her back, following quietly behind her and Iago walking behind them.Amelia picked out a book and sat down carefully on her couch before opening her book to read. Maisy smiles at Amelia suspiciously which made Amelia laugh. “Why are you smiling like that, Maisy?” she asked.Maisy's smile grew wider when she heard Amelia’s question. “Hehe, nothing young madam. I’m just feeling happy today” she said and giggled.Helga turned
