Ellyse froze while folding Claire’s clothes to look at her, and then her eyes went to Nerissa whose lips were sealed. She only sighed before forcing an assuring smile.“Of course, Claire. We’re just busy,” She caressed her daughter’s head lovingly.“You two are always busy, you never spend time with me anymore…especially you,” Claire poute

“Sylvia, can I ask you a question?” Ellyse asked their head staff who’s currently accompanying her with cooking dinner. “Of course, ma’am,” she immediately stopped stirring the pot. “I’m just curious…you know, I left this house for months. And during those months, I’ve learned that my daughter has grown quite close with Agatha…” just the sound of Kai’s mistress’ name rolling off of her tongue sounded forbidden. It was almost like Sylvia never expected to have that kind of conversation with her former boss who’s now back to being her boss. “I wondered…how often does she visit here before? Does she sleep in? Does she stay for a long time or no?” she asked curiously. She asked that because she genuinely wanted to know. Not because she feels threatened, or insecure. She really wanted to know. “Please tell me the truth, I don’t mind,” she gave her an assuring smile. Sylvia

“Kai, can you drop me off to my house?” The three of them were now inside his car while he drove. Claire has finally gotten silent after talking consistently for the past hour. “You need to get anything?” he asked before glancing at her. Ellyse shook her head, “nope, I need to talk to Riden.” Upon mentioning her old friend’s name, Claire immediately sat up. “You’re going to see Doctor Riden, mom?!” Her daughter was thrilled to know about it but she knew pretty well that Kai disliked the idea. He was never fond of the guy, atleast after finding out that he was Agatha’s ex-fiancée. “Yes, Claire. But you cannot come because you have to take your nap,” she informed her, making her pout. “You sure you don’t want us to wait for you?” he asked again. She thought about it for a moment before shaking her head. She’d feel pressured to quicken their conversation knowing that the

“Don’t trust anyone,” Alex says as if she was giving them both a warning. Then, her eyes averted towards Ellyse who’s staring at her as if she was about to plant a bomb. “Not even eachother,” were the last words she had uttered before going mute again. Kai looked over at Ellyse in shock but she only shook her head. Then, they were escorted outside by Detective Reynolds. “What could that possibly mean?” he asked the detective, his brows furrowed in confusion. “It could mean two things,” Detective Reynolds shifted. “She meant what she said, and she’s hinting that the culprit might be someone very close to you both,” She gulped harshly before looking away. “Or, she could be saying that to distract you from the real mastermind. It could be a mind gaming that she’s playing, we don’t know,” he sighed heavily b

“I…I was talking to my mother,” she didn’t want to keep lying in his face. His brows furrowed in confusion, “were you figting with her?” There was concern in his voice that made her feel evenmore guilty than she already is. For some reason, making up another lie was harder than she thought. What was she supposed to tell him anyway? That she fought with Eliana because her family’s actually the culprit behind the money stolen from his company? That she was kidnapped by her own mother? “Well…yes, we just…didn’t agree on some things,” she looked away, afraid that her eyes would give everything away. “She shouldn’t have stressed you knowing your condition,” he shook his head. “It’s nothing, I’m ysed to it by now. Why were you here anyway?” she tried to divert the subject elsewhere. “I needed to fetch a few documents for the case,” he p

Kai and Claire left after breakfast like nothing had happened. Ellyse couldn’t get herself to say the words back to him so instead of answering, she laughed it off like a madwoman and drove her daughter away by her shoulders. It worked like a charm since she was immediately distracted by the array of food on the table. She was so grateful for that. Afterwards, they left. Kai dropped Claire off to school while he went to work. Meanwhile, Ellyse was left at home. She busied herself by doing small house chores like cleaning the dishes and reorganizing her bedroom. Things like that kept her busy and occupied. Everything was going smoothly until lunch time rolled around. Victoria came to visit her, holding a basket of fruits on her hand. “Mom-Victoria,” she shook her head awkwardly upon seeing her former mother-in-law. She was so used to calling her mom, she needs to practice calling

Ellyse was rendered speechless from what she heard. Kai smirked slowly before sipping from the glass again. Why would he even say that? She thought. He wasn’t even like that whenever he was drunk before. He wasn’t the type to sweet talk her. He was someone totally different that night. “You’re drunk,” she concluded once she heard him say that. “I tell you that I’m merely admiring you and then you’re back to saying that I’m drunk again,” he lets out a bark of a laugh. “It’s because you are, Kai,” she circled around the island bar to take the glass of whiskey from him. Instead of protesting, he just gave in. He didn’t even stop her. Ellyse then brought the glass and the bottle to the sink before turning around to look at him again. This time, he was just watching her with both of his arms propped up on the

“Yes, what’s the problem?” She asked him without second thoughts. For some reason, she didn’t like his tone when he pointed out the fact that she’s still in contact with Riden. Yes, he doesn’t like him because of Agatha. But that doesn’t automatical

Ellyse was surprised to see Kai calling her in the middle of the day. It was something that she had anticipated for the longest time and yet when it came, she found herself feeling nervous. “Hello?” She answered almost immediately.

For the first time since the fight, Kai finally answered Ellyse’ call. Her heart leaped, she felt so nervous to finally tell him about her pregnancy. It’s been long overdue and she felt that he deserved to know too. Maybe it was
Fractured Promises Part 9: Claire
Ellyse’s hands trembled as she saw the two visible lines appear on the pregnancy test she took just earlier today. Her and Kai have been intimate for quite some time now, but it didn’t occur to her that she could be pregnant. They were careful! God knows t
