The door of D'Empire Shopping Mall is ceremoniously opened to the public and Belle, together with her friends were among the crowd that entered for the first time.
"Belle let's go directly to Le'Chic, they have a lot of sales there. Let's check if the limited edition bag that we saw last time is on sale" Shine excitedly exclaimed while pulling Belle towards the store that she mentioned while Phil is following behind while pinching the bridge of his nose.
"Shine, limited edition items are usually not put on sale" Phil mumbled incredulously but Shine just ignored him and continued to drag Belle who just shrugged at Phil.
"There's no
"Welcome home Master Ethan, young mistress Belle. You had a great day young mistress?" Mr. Oh asked with a fond smile towards the girl, the instant she went out of the vehicle."Hello Mr. Oh, I had a great day, thank you for asking and we got a lot of great bargains at the opening sale" Belle proudly replied with her sweet and satisfied smile but Mr. Oh gaped at her."Bargain, you say young mistress?" Mr. Oh confusedly asked while also looking at the intimidating man beside Belle who was fondly staring at the girl."Yes Mr. Oh, we got a lot of bargains today, up to 50% discount. It's a good thing that Ethan accompanied me, I got to
Belle is halfway through her fourth year in medicine and their last year in school and a few months towards the completion of their internship. Today their group is attending an orientation from a famous consultant and everyone is attentively listening knowing the meticulous reputation of the strict doctor. They were almost halfway towards the medicine licensure examination and everyone is so excited, especially Belle."I hope that you will work hard to train yourselves to become the best in this field not because you are part of the very powerful and influential family. Influence is undeniably helpful to land you a job but it's your skill and expertise to make you keep it" the old doctor said with his serious tone while looking directly at Belle which everyone saw.
"Ethan, I swear! Something stinks here" Belle exasperatedly exclaimed while they were in the dining room and was having their dinner when she smelled an awful smell which she doesn't know where it came from."Baby, I don't smell anything unusual, it's just the food on the table that smelled so delicious, it's all your favorite" Ethan gently explained while getting confused of what smell Belle is referring to."There is something that smells awful, I swear" Belle mumbled before she leaned on the table and tried to smell the food."Aww… this is where the awful smell was coming from, these all smelled awful Ethan" Belle muffled while she covered
Ethan, Belle, Pete and Mr. Oh gaped at Park who was looking at them alternately with his questioning look."What did you say?" Pete was the one to talk first while the rest remained dazed." I was just wondering why Belle has the unusual craving for avocado for dinner" Park shrugged and leaned on the chair while still waiting for everyone to come to their senses. Pete even continued to stare at Park before he turned to Ethan."Ethan? Do you, by any chance, have a contraception method that you have been practising?" Pete asked the very personal question that no one in their right mind would casually ask an Ethan DelValle.
"Ethan…" Belle called again when Ethan remained so quiet which is adding to the apprehension that she has been feeling since the start.Every pair of eyes were focused on Ethan, desperately waiting for him to say something. Ethan heaved a sigh while his eyes focused on the frightened eyes of Belle and he instantly choked on the emotions that were in turmoil inside him. His eyes became teary while taking several deep breaths."Your serum test…yield...positive…" Ethan whispered ever so softly but enough for everyone to hear and gasp in surprise.Belle's hands abruptly flew to her mouth as she gaped with a wide mouth and rounded eyes.
Just like what Ethan said, the very first thing in the morning, all DelValle arrived at the mansion with two prominent men while the women instantly dotted Belle."Okay let's do this" Lucas announced after the women had checked and somewhat interrogated Belle."Here's the documents Mr. Chairman" the man in coat and tie handed the documents while they are all settled around the receiving area of Ethan's home office.Everyone seemed to be serious and gauging, even Meryl and Cassey were looking so calm and never exchange a conversation with anyone.L
Belle continued with her hospital internship as if the discussion about the added security never happened. Nothing changes with her security details and she hasn't seen any changes at the hospital. Her day comes and goes as usual and Belle becomes more relaxed and forgets about the tense discussion they had at Ethan's office. Ethan's family expressions that morning still creeped her out whenever it crossed her mind."So, what this preggy wants for lunch?" Shine whispered softly with her teasing tone while she rounded her arms around Belle's waist."
It's been months that Belle had shamelessly done her habit of constantly sneaking at Ethan's office during lunch break and she only mellowed down when she passed her third month. Belle's fettish to Ethan's body was deliciously enjoyed by Ethan himself who happily freed his two hours lunch break to have Belle inside his office. The four corners of the elegant CEO's office has been a silent witness of how two souls love each other so much.Pete was the only one who knew what was happening inside the CEO's office at the period of two hours that the CEO don't want to be disturbed, but Belle's constant appearance put doubt to all of Ethan's secretaries, especially Mitch who fully knew the blush in Belle's cheeks and the awkward look in her eyes everytime she went inside and especially when she was leaving.
