"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.
"No! No! It's Shine! I'm not hurt" Belle exclaimed in panic while she was being secured by Mr. Mac against the wall, trapping her with his own body.Mac felt tremendously relieved when he made sure that Belle was indeed unharmed. The other two securities were already standing on their both sides not far from them while the others came after the suspect who is wearing a doctor's robe."Shine..." Belle whimpered while she hopelessly stared at Shine's pale face."Shine...wake up..." Phil whispered desperately while holding Shine's unconscious body with his trembling arms, until medical staff from emergency room came running towards them, with a stretcher."Mr. Mac…what happened to Shine? I wan to go to her" Belle worriedly aske
Ethan brought Belle home together with her doctor and Miss Mel who was given a special task as Belle's personal nurse. Ethan could not take any chances again so he only got those people whom he could trust with his wife.Although Belle has been insisting to visit Shine, her doctor did not allow her and strictly ordered her for a bed rest, her blood pressure is quite elevated than normal which alarmed her doctor. Ethan has assured her that they will visit Shine together when she has her doctor's permission, as precaution for their baby's safety. Thinking of the fragile life inside her, Belle was pacified and let her doctor and Miss Mel to monitor her. She might thought that she is fine, after the incident, but her body is telling otherwise which the doctor knew too well so she has to trust and follow her order.
"Report" Lucas seriously exclaimed the instant they entered a room, secluded and unknown from everyone's knowledge."Hired to kill for a living, no family on record, just a pregnant live-in partner whom he killed when he got high on drugs. Got paid three thousand dollar for young madame's life. Country's most wanted criminal" one of the men reported with a grim expression and serious tone."Three thousand dollars?" Ethan exasperatedly grumbled at the price, set for his wife."Yes sir, the one who hired him is obviously broke but this man will do anything for money, even how small, and he got the chance despite how futile his ground is. Obviously, he is desperate&n
The doorbell rang and the person who was just slumped on the couch, face down, heard it faintly but not sober enough to answer. The persistent ringing is making it worse for the person's hangover that a groan escaped the person's dried and patchy throat."Fuck off…" the hoarse sound of the person's voice who is slumped on the couch disturbed the silence of the almost empty and grubby apartment.The ringing stopped and the person tried to sleep again but the sleep seemed to have deserted the still groggy eyes and mind.
"Good day Mr. CEO" the chief officer of the police district greeted Ethan the instant he stepped inside his office, led by Pete."Officers, good day" Ethan immediately stood up from his chair and offered his hand to the men in uniform before he gestured them all to the couch.Ethan took his seat across from his visitors while Pete remained standing behind the couch of where Ethan was seated."Mr. CEO, we have this visit to update you of the status of the case concerning your fiancee, Miss Perez and her friend Shine Montes against the suspect who is still at large as of this time" the chief started while Ethan became more focused and seri
