ログイン“Are you married?” I bit my tongue at the question that I have been dreading since I saw him in the boardroom. “Answer me!” His angry yell startled me. I couldn’t fault him for being mad. How do I begin to explain it? If I tell him the truth, we will lose the deal and if I continue with the lies, he will see me as a cheating woman. Either way, I am going to lose so I picked the better choice for me and for my company. “Yes, I am married.” ***** For Maeve Fitzgerald her night with Alessandro Marchesi was pure passion and the best night of her life that can only be one night. For Alessandro, it was so much more. Maeve was sure they will never cross paths again but fate has a different plan and it’s about to change her life forever.
もっと見るMaeve “What are you doing, Charles? You are making her cry!” I almost laughed through my tears when my other brother spoke and slightly pushed Charles away so he could stand in front of me. “Hi, baby girl.” It was the first time he called me that but it felt like I had heard it before. The memory was there from a long time ago. “James.” I don’t know how I figured out that it was him but I just knew. His face lit up and that told me I got his name right. “You remember me!” He let out delightfully and I really didn’t want to steal his joy. “As much as I want to say yes to that, I can’t! I don’t really remember you from my past. I just got a feeling it was you when you called me baby girl. You used to call me that?” I asked him. He didn’t answer immediately. He looked away but not before I saw the tear drop from his eyes. All my brothers are crybabies. Even my supposedly strong older brother. “See! Even you can hold back tears. Get out of my way!” Thomas anno
Maeve “I don’t even know if I am ready to face my mom.” It’s not that I don’t want to meet her, it’s just that I don’t know how I would be able to face the woman I spent more than half of my life silently hating and cursing. Not to mention that she thought me dead. It already hurts so much thinking of meeting my brothers as an adult woman. What would it be like meeting the one who first loved me? The one who first knew of my existence before anyone else? “Why? Are you scared that she might not accept you?” Andro asked me. I shook my head. “I am not scared of that. I just—she thought I was dead for years. How is she going to take the fact that all these years I was alive and in the same country but they never managed to find me?” I let out. How did they not even find me? The orphanage didn’t even change my name. My mom told me that I came into the orphanage wearing a tag with my name on it. It was such a pretty name that even after I got adopted, they decided to
Maeve“Do you want me to end the call?”Andro whispered to me while rubbing my back and trying to calm me down.“No.”My voice wavered. I managed to pull myself together and spoke again.“Theo?”I could only call Theo’s name because he was the only one I really knew.“Yes, baby.”I almost started sobbing again.“Where are you guys? Who are you with?”I asked him.“I am with James, Thomas, and Charles. Alexander had surgery, so he couldn’t make it.”He told me. I knew Charles was the actor, Alexander must be the doctor, so the other two are my oldest brothers, who were ex-seals.“You told them.”I joked to lift the mood.“I had to. I am sorry that I didn’t keep my word to you.”I chuckled.“That’s okay. I only found out after the results were released. Can I talk to the others?”I asked him.“Sure,”He said, and there was a moment of silence before someone called my name.“Which one are you?”I asked and felt another wave of sadness rush through me.My brother was on the phone, and I
Maeve“That’s okay, I can cook for you.”I smiled.“I love you.”I told him and stuffed my mouth with more food. He handed me a napkin.“What do you want to do after lunch?”He asked me.“I don’t know.”I told him.“We can watch a movie or play video games. There are a lot of things to do around here.”I nodded at his suggestion.After lunch, I chose to watch a movie, so he took me to the cinema at home.I expected it to be a small movie room, but it wasn’t. It had at least ten rows of seats and a huge screen.We spent the rest of the afternoon watching different movies.I skipped dinner because I started to feel nauseous in the evening and by seven pm, the cramp returned as if it never left.This time, rather than send Andro away, I begged him to stay by my side, and he helped ease the pain with both his presence and by massaging me.By Monday morning, I was in hell, but thankfully, I didn’t have to go to work.I sent a message to the group chat and spent the day between crying and s
Maeve“I can’t believe you sold the house and didn’t bother to give me my cut!” I yelled at him. “I haven’t sold the house. The house isn’t for sale!” I blinked at him. “What? You didn’t put the house up for sell like I told you?” I yelled at him. I couldn’t believe him. He didn’t sign or subm
Maeve“You have changed a lot. How can you be so sure? I made one mistake, Eve. One mistake and you decided to let go of everything we had. Everything we shared!” I scoffed at his words.To him, it was a small one mistake but to me? It’s huge and I refuse to be gaslighted about how I reacted to hi
Maeve“I am glad you called me even though it’s late. I like it. You have been a good girl.” Before, that simple sentence would have had some kind of effect on me, and I would have been blushing and covered my face shyly.Now, it sounded corny and annoyed me, but I let it slide.“About the deal.”
Maeve “Eve.” The first thing I felt when I heard the person on the phone was disappointment that it wasn’t who I thought it was on the phone. The second thing I felt was fear. The fact that I felt the fear secondly made me feel guilty because I knew the only reason my brother was calling me wa
