He Never Knew I Was Carrying His Child Chapter 10
Years ago, after his dinner, Damian would've simply disappeared.Hours later, I'd finally ask,Everything okay?His answer was always the same.Yeah.Never once, did he think to tell me he'd finished or ask how my evening had been.If I asked why, he'd sigh. “Don't you have anything else to do besides waiting for my texts?”I'd long since grown out of caring whether someone replied within minutes.And yet, reading Liam's explanation made something warm settle quietly inside my chest.I typed back.No worries.Finish what you're doing first.Almost immediately, the words at the top of the screen changed into typing...A long message appeared.No one is too busy to let someone they care about know they're thinking of them.It only takes a few seconds to say, "I'll be tied up for a while."Or, "I'll call you later."The people who matter deserve that much.I hope one day, You'll let me be that person for you.I stared at the screen. But I didn’t answer. In the afternoon, I left work earl

Clara had been standing outside the room for who knew how long.She stepped inside with a tentative smile."No." Clara looked stunned."But you always helped me with these things."Damian's expression remained cold. "Then it's time you learned."Clara blinked. The smile slowly disappeared from her face.She glanced at me."Elena, please don't be upset with Damian because of me."I smiled politely. "You don't have to worry. We're no longer together."For the briefest moment, something flashed across Clara's face.Relief. It vanished almost instantly."I never wanted the two of you to fight because of me."Damian finally looked up from the documents in front of him."If you have questions about the seating arrangements, ask the family secretary."Clara stared at him, clearly not expecting that answer."I let you depend on me for things you should have learned to handle yourself."His voice remained calm, but there was a trace of regret beneath it."I told myself it was responsibility. I

The groom smiled at Ava. "And one more thing. I never want you to wonder whether you're bothering me. If something makes you laugh, I want to hear about it. If something scares you, I want to know that too. I don't care how small it is. I want to be the first person you think of."The room erupted into applause.Across the crowd, I saw Damian.He stood quietly near the back of the ballroom, staring at the couple.Then, almost as if he felt me looking, he turned.Our eyes met. Once, a single glance like that had been enough to make my heart race.Now, I felt nothing at all.After the ceremony, I changed out of my bridesmaid's dress before joining everyone for dinner.Some last-minute seating changes had been made. My place card had disappeared.A little flower girl took my hand. "I think you're over here."She led me to a table tucked into the corner.Mostly children, and one very confused-looking adult.He looked up. Silver-blond hair. An expensive tailored suit. Wire-frame glasses.H

I stared at the screen, already drafting a careful explanation in my head.Before I could type, another message appeared.Were you trying to tell me something?A second later, my phone buzzed again.A banking notification. A transfer had been made.My eyes widened. Five figures. I froze.Then another message came through.Not an accident.Come with me to a wedding this Saturday in New York.Some distant cousin is getting married.My family will spend the entire day asking why I'm still single.I'd rather have a fake date than answer those questions.You're single, aren't you? Consider the money hazard pay.I couldn't help laughing. Unfortunately, Ava's wedding was the same day.For the first time in our friendship, a small fortune was competing against loyalty.I stared at the amount on my screen. It could pay several months' rent. Maybe longer.I sighed. Then typed back,Thank you, Mr. Carter.But my best friend is getting married on Saturday back home.There's nowhere else I'd rather

I answered calmly."Would it have changed anything if I told you?"Silence. Damian knew exactly where those words had come from. He'd used them on me countless times.His voice softened. Almost apologetic."The day after tomorrow, some friends are getting together. They're all bringing their partners. I remember you always wanted to meet them.""No." I didn't even hesitate.Months ago, I'd wanted so badly to be part of his world.Damian always said he valued his privacy, that he needed space.Now that I was gone, he was suddenly opening the door.He paused. "You've been spending all your time with Ava. I'm your boyfriend. If you want to go shopping, watch a movie, or take a weekend trip, I'll go with you."I almost laughed. I'd spent years asking him to do those exact things with me.There was always another meeting. Another trip. Another excuse.Eventually, the restaurants closed, the shows ended. The places I'd wanted to visit disappeared from my list.I stopped asking. There was no

My first week in London didn't go the way I'd imagined.My onboarding paperwork had somehow disappeared. My security badge never arrived. My system access was delayed for days.By the time everything was sorted out, I'd already been assigned the department's least desirable account. An impossible deadline. An impossible target.It didn't take long before I figured out why. Officially, the team was led by the founder's son. Young. Brilliant. And rarely in the office.The day-to-day decisions were made by the regional director instead.The two of them disagreed on almost everything.Without realizing it, I'd become collateral damage.Once again, my approval request was stuck waiting on another department.No reply. No explanation. Frustrated, I opened the pinned conversation at the top of my messages.Before I could stop myself, I sent a crying cat emoji.I was about to complain to Ava. Instead, the reply came almost instantly.I'm here.What's wrong?I frowned. That wasn't how Ava usual
