In the end, Ellyse pushed for the wedding date to be earlier than expected. She convinced Victoria to move it as early as possible.

She was willing to do anything just to keep him from slipping from her hold.

Once Kai knew about it, he immediately went to her house during the evening. It was so unexpected.

She saw him sitting in the living room, fidgeting with his fingers. When his eyes caught hers, he removed his eyeglasses and placed them on the coffee table.

Meanwhile, Ellyse gulpe

  • Fractured Promises   Chapter 146

    “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

    Ellyse went straight to the photoshoot as soon as she finished getting ready and taking a bath. However, she still had Claire at the very back of her mind while driving. She couldn’t understand why her daughter needed to lie to her. Was she scared that she might get mad

    Ellyse and Riden ate dinner together until both of their stomach were full. She didn’t want to go home yet so they decided to sit at his patio to kill time. The sky was sprinkled with stars, and the moon was brightly lit. Everything felt calming and relaxing to Ellyse. T

    “I’m sorry I have to take this,” She stood up from sitting. “Go ahead,” He gestured his hand towards the door while she nodded. She went to his kitchen for privacy before accepting the call. “Hello, Mom?” She answered.

  • Fractured Promises   Chapter 44

    After the interview, Ellyse was told that by next week, they’ll schedule a photoshoot with her which she immediately agreed to. She drove home that night. By 10 pm, she arrived at the mansion and ate breakfast by herself. Then, she went to Claire’s room who’s
