Chapter 12.1

When I got back to the apartment, I quickly changed into a fresh, clean set of clothes and fixed myself up. I didn’t stay there for long. Since I had already packed, I left right away and headed to the hospital.

I felt so uneasy on my way there. Instead of taking a jeepney, I took a taxi because I wasn’t sure if it was safe for me to ride public transportation at that moment. I felt like there were eyes watching my every move. Besides, it was getting late, so taking a taxi was th

  • The Billionaire's Bidding (English)   Chapter 47.1

    Chapter 47.1The next day, while I was preparing Lauren's uniform, I heard the sound of a car outside our house. When I peeked outside the window, I saw Wyatt stepping out of the car. It's only six in the morning, yet he's already here. I immediately moved from the window when he suddenly looked up in my direction. My heart raced faster, my hands trembled. I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself down, but only only a few seconds later I failed. Just thinking that I would see him again this morning made my entire system restless. I shouldn't be surprise by situations like this— after all, he was really here to see his daughter. Still I couldn't understand myself. I took a deep breath and flinched when I suddenly heard his low voice. My lips parted as I slowly open one eye. I saw his figure at the bedroom door. I took another deep breath before closing my eyes again and opening them fully. Wyatt was standing at the doorway. When our eyes met, he leaned against the doorframe and cro

    Chapter 46.2Before I could even respond to the last thing that she said, the call ended. I closed my eyes and immediately regretted it when the image of Wyatt— shirtless suddenly flashed in my mind. I shook my head and tried to calm myself. I looked back at Lauren, and my chest tightened when I realized how close Wyatt's face to mine. My lips parted, and for a moment I couldn't even move because of what's happening. We just stared at each other, and if I hadn't snapped out of it, we probably would have stayed like that all day. I quickly looked away and took a step back. "Where's Lauren?" I asked when our daughter wasn't with him. He smirked and took a small step away from me. I felt immense relief seeing that he was already dressed. His wet shirt clung to his body, clearly outlining his skin— especially his abs. His hair was slightly damp and messy. "She went inside earlier to change," he answered. I just nod. "Y-You should c-change too..." I said, stuttering. I cleared my th

    Chaptet 46.1"You're just like her when you were little."I turned to my Dad when he said that. We were standing near the shore, watching Wyatt and Lauren playing in the water. It's been days since we talked that night, and it's also been days since he started coming to our house and bonding with Lauren. I still haven't told Lauren about her relationship with Wyatt. I don't know why I cant bring myself to tell her, maybe because I'm scared. Maybe I'm the one who isn't ready for whatever's might happen, not my daughter. I looked away from my Dad and turn my attention back to the two of them, who were now chasing each other. It's also been days since Dad hugged me, and since then, we've started talking little by little. Our conversations aren't long, and we don't talk much, but that's enough for me. What matters is that there's a progress in our relationship as father and daughter. "You and Eli really look alike," he added. "You got your mom's facial features— and somehow, you also g

    Chapter 45.2"Eloise..." He called my name in a broken voice. I harshly wiped away the tears I hadn't even notice had already been streaming down my cheeks. "No... You told her about it, yet you couldn't even tell me.""Because you already had too much on your plate." I let out a bitter laugh. "Of course! What was I to you anyway? Just someone to pass the time. Someone you remember only when you feel like it. And I was the fool who clung to a tiny silver of hope— one that was impossibly unclear."He shook his head at me as my tears continued to fall uncontrollably. "You know that I love you, Eloise," he said. My heart ached. "Is that how you love someone?" I asked. "Tell me— is that really how you love?" "Eloise, please," he called my name painfully. This time, I was the one who shook my head and raised my hand, tears still streaming down my face. "I've listened to you. You can leave now, Wyatt," I said firmly, pointing toward the exit without looking in his direction. I tur

  • The Billionaire's Bidding (English)   Chapter 45.1

    Chapter 45.1We went out of the house where the patio was. The wind wasn't strong, so I didn't feel cold even though it was already night. The silence of the surroundings only added to the anxiety I was trying to hide. I sat down on one of the chairs and stared into darkness in front of me. I could feel my knees slowly weakening, so it was better to be safe. Wyatt remained standing beside me, and I didn't know where he was looking or what kind of reaction he had. I let out a sigh after a few minutes had passed, yet I still hadn't heard a word from him. I turned sharply and looked up at him. "You know—""That day—" We both froze when we spoke at the same time and then looked at each other. I swallowed and looked away. "You go first," we said in unison, surprised. I cleared my throat and adjusted my position on the chair. "You can talk first," he said. I shook my head. "No. I was about to tell you, to tell me what you want to say," I replied. I kept gaze fixed ahead, elbows rest

    Chapter 44.2"Not yet," she replied. I nodded and walk towards the refrigerator to get some water, only to notice that there was nothing inside except the orange juice. I opened the fridge and took out a glass pitcher of water. I almost drop the fragile pitcher when I heard Lauren's voice calling out to Wyatt. That 'mister' thing will really give me a heart attack anytime soon. "Are you going to join us?" Lauren asked him excitedly. I took a deep breath and turned to face them. I walked toward the table, avoiding Wyatt's gaze, and stood beside Lauren. I took her glass and poured cold water into it. "Ah—" Dad immediately cut himself off before he could say anything. "Join us, Wyatt," Daddy invited him, which completely startled me. I looked at my Dad in shock, my mouth falling open when our eyes met. I couldn't believe he was inviting Wyatt to have dinner with us, especially since they had just finished talking. Wyatt hesitantly glanced at me and cleared his throat when he saw t
