Mrs Kingston is getting on my nerves theses days, I am still wondering why she came back. I am yet to find out who had been feeding her in on all the happenings in this Mansion while she was gone. I am pretty sure it is not Gil, he is very loyal to me and he won't betray me like that. It must be one of those gossiping female housekeepers, they are way too much. If not, Mrs Kingston wouldn't have come. That person will pay with his or her life if I find out.She knows very well that I don't like Chantel, but she still tries to build a 'bond' between us. I pity Chantel who doesn't have a clue about what my mother is using her for.Now I wonder deeply why my mother asked to see me this early in the morning in her room. I am pretty sure it something that will annoy me, so I am up for it.Knock! knock!! I knocked before I entered her room and saw her sitting on her bed which is at the center of the room. It seems as though she had been waiting on me for a while now. I entered to sight her
Trisha's POVI am awoken by the dream that Kaiden was with me last night but we didn't have sex, for the first time. Kaiden has never spent time with me without sex being involved. Guess it was not a dream, it was reality. Kaiden did spend the night with me.The ray of the sun hit my face from the transparent ceiling and the sight was beautiful. I woke up to an empty bed without him. The very first time Kaiden spends with me, he runs off. I really wish he could stay a little longer and spend time with me, he was so sweet.I don't know if this was a pregnancy craving, but I wake up craving him in the morning and in the night before I go to bed. I could never be more pathetic myself. I just sat on the bed admiring the paintings, this time in broad daylight. I sat there thinking about him and the time we spent last night. My thoughts were interrupted by the sight of Gil, the senior butler."Ma please, Mr Kross asked me to bring your food upstairs, it is in your room", he bowed and said.
Mrs Kingston's POVI have never been so insulted in my life. How would Kaiden stoop so low to making out with a commoner?. Over my dead body would I see Kaiden get married to someone like Trisha. Kaiden really wants to mock me, but I just know that he can't refuse me. His father really knew that he would turn out like this when he made his last wishes to Kaiden before he died. Kaiden must now carry on his dead father's wishes of obeying my every word without questioning and doing everything to keep the company. Thank you dear Kingston.I knew that Kaiden wouldn't accept Chantel if I had just introduced her as one of the women I picked for him. When Mr Woods decided to make a deal with the company, I had to make Chantel a condition in the deal so that I could get Kaiden to accept her. It didn't turn out the way I had planned it because Trisha came into the picture. Kaiden obviously fancies Kaiden to Chantel but that would not happen on my watch. I must make Chantel and Kaiden get mar
Chantel's POVI knew I had lost Kaiden the very day I saw Trisha. She is definitely his type of girl, but since I am promised marriage to him, I will not give up. Kaiden resents me so much, but I fell in love with him the very day Mrs Kingston showed me his picture.I feel bad anytime I remember that it was a deal that made Kaiden agree to be with me. It doesn't matter, as long as Mrs Kingston has promised to make him mine. I have Mrs Kingston on my side, so Trisha has nothing on me when it comes to Kaiden. All I have to do is to act vulnerable around Mrs Kingston and she will do the rest. Good thing I have my father's fame. Mrs Kingston will likely fall at my feet because of the deal she made with my father. I will get whatever I want even if it means going an extra mile, and that I mean making use of my father's influence and power.I will do whatever I have to do to get Kaiden and make him mine. When Mrs Kingston suggested that Kaiden and I go out today, I was very excited, but I
Kaiden's POV I woke up with a very splitting headache from yesterday night. How many drinks did I have to drink? I remember having only one drink so why the sudden headache. I began to massage my forehead with my fingers. Immediately, I jerked off when I saw myself completely naked on the bed and Chantel beside me, naked.I tried so hard to remember what happened last night between Chantel and I. I held my head because the headache was too much. I began to think about how Trisha will feel when she finds out about this. Chantel will definitely not keep quiet even if she is being paid to.How dare she take advantage of me for her own selfish interests? She will pay for this sooner or later and I promise that. The thoughts of Trisha finding out still flashed through my face as I sat on the bed close to sleeping Chantel. How will she feel about this? What if my actions bare consequences? What if Chantel becomes pregnant? I won't be able to deal with Trisha being heart broken, I won't t
Mrs Kingston called for another 'family breakfast', guess it was a time for another morning drama as always.I got downstairs late, as usual. I didn't want to get caught up in the charade the three women had anytime it came to setting the table. Unfortunately, Trisha was not there as usual. Only Chantel and Mrs Kingston sat on the table in anticipation for the food. My eyes began to wonder, searching for Trisha around the dining room but I couldn't find her."Where is Trisha? And why is she not seated before the slated time for breakfast?", Mrs Kingston asked, definitely unconcerned. She was just asking for asking sake, with a broad smile on her face as usual."I was going to ask you the same thing", I said, going upstairs to get Trisha.Reaching the elevator, I spotted Trisha coming out of it covered with the same blanket I saw her with last night. I quickly went to assist her walk to the table. She smacked my hand off her as she walked slowly to the table."There you are", Mrs Kings
Trisha's POV I didn't have time and I knew that. I thank goodness that my flat stomach came in handy. I had a feeling that even if I was 5 months gone, my stomach would only bloat out a bit, but my body was changing and it was becoming obvious. Then, Kaiden couldn't even notice it, and I pray it remains that way. For the mean time, I would have to avoid Kaiden as much as possible, till at least I can wrap my head around the whole situation and leave. Mrs Kingston's words still hunt me as well, and I don't want to be caught in the same space with her again.I could see that Kaiden had developed a liking to me but he didn't realize it, he mistakes it for lust every single time. Every time he comes to knock on my door, I am always pushed to open for him. Inasmuch as I want to open for him, I don't want him to know anything about me or his baby. I like things the way they are for now.Kaiden sleeping with Chantel was not a coincidence to me. I knew that as long as Mrs Kingston wants Cha
Kingston Inc. began to loose deals as Kaiden's drinking addiction surface and the press started reporting about it. Kaiden could no longer function anymore because of this, and the mighty Kingston Empire was crumbling before him.Mrs Kingston was left restless as her son backslided to the habit he just recovered from. She began to blame herself for bringing this upon him again. One would think that Mrs Kingston actually repented for once, until I am left to take care of her drinking son and to cover his shame. It appears that I am the only cure for him, at least for the mean time, only because he listens to me. I can no longer hide from Kaiden, but at least I can still hide my pregnancy. I was led to open my door wide for Kaiden to find comfort everytime he came back home drunk, since everything seemed to be heading the wrong direction in his life. Besides, I rarely go out so I was the perfect person to take care of him while the others just neglected the responsibility. I get help
Lucian's POV I am not lifting a finger for Kaiden, especially when he is taking my rightful place as the CEO. But Kaiden really needs my help, and I am going to help him, because it is going to be of help to me. I know that for the past few days he has not been himself because of Trisha, and I am ready to help just so that I can see him leave.Mrs Kingston told me a month ago that if Kaiden didn't quit his stupidity, she will give the company to Stacey and I. Seeing Kaiden like this is the best state for me, and I will work my butt off just to see that Kaiden goes after Trisha for my own good. I know that Kaiden would not believe me, so I have made a vow to look for Trisha myself, just to prove Kaiden wrong.And no, Mrs Kingston will not be involved in this. I don't want her to think that I was the one who encouraged her son to go after a girl who is just not good for him. So when I promised Kaiden not to tell Mrs Kingston, I meant it.It will take a long time to convince Kaiden that
Kaiden's POV So everybody just really think that they can make me forget Trisha? Even my mom? I know that Trisha coming into my life was the worst thing that ever happened me, to those who knew me before that. But they fail to understand what she has done to me instead, not just the physical things that everyone sees. Before Trisha left, I felt something that I had never felt before, and I really need to confront her about it. Trisha was a mistake, but that mistake turned to something else in the long run, and I know that she doesn't know it yet. Scratch love, I don't love her, I don't believe in love. Just that, she is something more than that.I also know that my mother knows where Trisha went to but she has refused to tell me anything about it. I have tried, yes, I have tried to look for her and she is no where to be found. I am not a fool, Trisha didn't just go back to Michael, her ex boyfriend. She wasn't even in contact with him since I fired him.Michael was always a cheat, i
Trisha's POV I jerked off from my sleep thirty minutes after realizing that someone has called me earlier, but I couldn't tell who the person was or what I said. I quickly grabbed my phone to check my call history just in case it wasn't Michael. I heaved a sigh of relief as I saw that is was Chantel not Michael. Who knows what I would have said to Michael.I called her back just in case she really needed me. As the phone rang in my hand, I tried to remember what I said to her before, just to be safe. I didn't want to tell her any of my secrets by mistake."Hey Trisha, it's about time you called", she said loudly. "You seem very happy this morning, spill the tea", I said."You of all people should know how it feels to make it to the next day alive. It is something to celebrate, isn't it?", she said even louder than the first, and I quickly took my phone away my ear."My eardrums will fall out if you don't stop shouting Chantel", I yelled back at her, keeping the phone at arms length,
Chantel's POV To be honest, I have come to like Trisha a whole lot than I hated her. Since she left, I have been all alone in the Kingston's Mansion. Mrs Kingston doesn't allow me to leave the house because she thinks that I am bound to do something stupid outside. Plus the fact that she moved me to Trisha's room which is in Kaiden's side of the mansion.Sometimes I fear what Kaiden would do to me. I know that I am not safe even though I lock myself inside the room the whole day. If Kaiden could uproot the door the last time, he could also go it again. The good thing is that he doesn't come to disturb me even if I am in the room for two days. Only the days that Mrs Kingston comes to knock at the door that I open it. It's like trying to survive in hell.So the only person I turn to is Trisha. She has been my companion since I turned to her for one. Since the day that Kaiden tried to break my bones again, I couldn't find comfort. I am very glad that Trisha did not turn me down. She is
Trisha's POV Michael was saying all the right things to me and I was beginning to fall for him the more. He went too extreme when he said that he was going to take care of my baby, not knowing the real father of the child. If at all he knew, he wouldn't have said that. Now that he has said that, what if he comes to find out about the real father, I wonder if he will regret his decision.I watched him go on and on as I admire his handsome face, it was always more handsome any time I looked at him. I have been really blessed with handsome men around me. When he confessed his feelings for me, I didn't know what to say. I said I was going to take things slow while trying to weigh the feelings I have for Kaiden and for him. He practically made the first move.But then, why would Kaiden be an option? Michael has literally presented himself to me, and I finally have a chance to be happy for once in my life. Why do I want to throw that all away by some blur feelings I have for Kaiden. I cann
Michael's POV I lost her before because I couldn't convince her to stay, but I wasn't going to make the same mistake again. Trisha was finally being herself around me, without hiding anything. I didn't expect her to say anything like that. I honestly felt pity for her. The story to why I came here was different from what hers, so I had to respect that.That was actually a blast that I wasn't prepared for. It was very hard for me to take it all in, and she brought that up at the very point when I was about to kiss her. From what she told me, she didn't deserve it. Her own part of the breakup was not like mine and I had to understand it.As I grabbed her at the door, I could see the pain in her eyes, she couldn't stop crying. I took her in my arms and told her it was okay. I didn't want to be the same jerk that she broke up with. I was changed now, and she deserved to see it in me. I led her gently to the table, in the mindset that I was going to listen to everything she had to say, a
"Wow, you impress me Michael. What's the story", I said sipping on one of the most expensive wine here. It tasted like heaven. One might even get drunk with realizing it."What story?", he said across the table with a smirk."Come on, everyone has a story behind this lavish lifestyle", I said, my eyes glued to his like I never wanted to take it off."Here is how it goes, but you will need to listen attentively", he said smiling."Okayy", I smiled back."After the day you came to my office and everything went down, I obviously don't want to dive into it, Kaiden, my boss at the time sacked me", he explained. He didn't smile at all when talking about this, his countenance had changed completely."Wait! What? Why?", I questioned. I mean, why would Kaiden want to sack anyone just like that."I thought you knew already?""No I didn't", my face so confused."It turned out that Kaiden took the whole me messing up thing seriously, and personal too. According to him, I had also messed up a few
Trisha's POV Michael feels like a different and more repented person to me. I feel like he is trying to make up for what he did to me. No, I don't have anything against him. I have too much on my mind to think of than what Michael had done to me, or even to hold it against him. I just can't. I want to give him a chance and see how it works out.I am not with Kaiden anymore. I am not his wife, I was never treated as one. I was just a medicine for him to heal from his past addiction. So I have the right to give Michael a chance. Who knows, if he loves me that much, he will have to accept Kaiden's child too. I am pretty sure that Michael doesn't know about my relationship with Kaiden. I mean, we were never a thing, that's why people didn't really know about it. My relationship with Kaiden has been a secret all this while, and I want to keep it that way. I am sure Michael doesn't know that I am pregnant too. He will come to find out sooner or later, and when he does, I will have to come
I just made the biggest mistake of giving Trisha my number, I would have gotten hers as well. It has been a week since I gave her my number and she still hasn't called. I am getting impatient, but I can't let my impatience get the best of me. I even went to the hospital a couple times to see if she would show up eventually, but she didn't show up. I began to feel so paranoid, then I called myself to order before it affects her too.Since I saw her, I have been planting date scenarios in my head hoping that she would like it. A picnic date? A movie date? A fancy dinner? I didn't know what she liked because I had never planned a date for Trisha before, and I obviously didn't know what she would like. I began to panic because I needed it to turn out fine.Soon, one week became two weeks and I started beating myself up. Why didn't I get her number instead? I would have known where she was staying by now. I fucked up. Every call that came to my phone, I would be super excited just in case
