로그인I drove out of the mansion as I headed out of the modelling agencyToday, I felt the sudden urge to drive after what felt like a really long time, because Ethan had stopped me from driving.But today, he had an early meeting with his investors so I saw it as an opportunity to satisfy my urge.My baby bump stood proudly in the seat as I drove. The dress I chose left little to the imagination I looked at it with a smile and pictured the headlines that could bloom from a paparazzi’s lens“Avery Pierce, the wife of Ethan Blackwood is heavily pregnant” The thought of it amused me unexpectedly as I entered the parking lot.I entered the space and found them in the middle of a rehearsalI stood by the corner unnoticed. When I scanned the room, I noticed a mix of both familiar and unfamiliar faces.I wondered if Mr Plies had employed them without my knowledge since it's been months since I visited.I decided to make myself noticed so I stepped inside at the scene of the rehearsal. Plies and
My phone beeped and it was a message from Ethan“I'm downstairs” Isn't he going to dress up too? I thought.Maybe he had done that in the other room The thought made me smile and I quickly texted him, telling him I'd meet him soonAlmost immediately, another message popped up“Take your time love”I smiled and hurriedly finished my makeup, wanting to look the best for our evening togetherWhen I came downstairs, I was met with the delightful eyes of Catherine “Janet, Janet” Catherine called out “Come look at Avery”I was surprised to see Ma Jane in the mansion. She emerged from the kitchen holding a cup of coffeeI walked towards her, eager to give her a hug, but had to move back to avoid bumping into the steaming cup of coffee she was carrying Catherine turned to Ma Jane and asked “Isnt she beautiful?”And Ma Jane nodded in agreement “Child, come give me a hug” Ma Jane said as she droped the coffeeI rushed over to her, wrapping my hand around her affectionately “I'm so glad
Ethan began to massage my shoulders. It felt so relieving that his strong hands worked magic on my body. After a while, Ethan broke the silence and asked “Love, where are we going tonight?”“Tonight?” I echoed in confusion“What's the occasion?”His expression remained calm but there's a playful glint in his eyes“Love, today is our anniversary”In that instant, my heart dropped. I realised I had completely forgotten our own anniversary. I looked at Ethan through the mirror, trying to gauge his reaction but he maintained an expressionless face that focused on massaging me deeplyI couldn't believe I let such an important day skip my thought“Ethan, I'm so sorry. can't believe I forgot”Ethan paused “It's okay, love. Let's focus on celebrating together”I looked back at Ethan, trying to find the right words.“I'm sorry” I said.Ethan reassured me that it was nothing but I wasn't ready to let it go as I kept apologizing I stood up and walked towards him but Ethan wrapped his hand ar
I bid goodbye to dad as he dropped me off at the mansion. I found out Ethan wasn't in the room. I decided to check his study but he wasn't there either. A playful pout formed on my lips as I realized that Ethan had gone out without me I pulled out my phone, eager to find out where he was. I noticed Ethan had sent me a message. So I read, “Love, am out with Micheal. Didn't want to disturb your father-daughter moment” I read the message and let out a smile as I went back to the room and before long, I had slept off. I woke up the next morning to the sweet aroma of breakfast wafted through the air, tickling my senses I thought to myself with my eyes still close. “Did I fall asleep in the dinning?” As I blinked my eyes open, I was greeted by the sight of Ethan's face beaming with a smile as he looked down at me He reached out and playfully tousled my hair “You're up, sleepy head!” I sat up and realised I was wearing Ethan's shirt. It then occurred to me that I
“Love, let me come with you please” Ethan said as we walked down the stairs I smiled but shook my head gently “Ethan, this outing is just for me and dad. You can't come” He pouted his lips like a child, leaving me laughing out loud “Ethan stop acting like a child. I have to go dad is already waiting for me” As we reached the door, I turned to him and gave him a quick kiss “Alright, but don't be too long” he said “I won't” As dad dad i arrived at the park, I looked around and noticed some changes The refreshing feeling I used to have was absent “Is it the pregnancy hormone?” I thought to myself Dad broke the silence as he glanced over me “How are my grandbabies doing?” I looked at him with a smile spreading “Well, approaching the third trimester hasn't been easy, dad” Dad stared blankly into space and looked down at me with a thoughtful expression I could tell something was bothering him “Come on dad, let it out” I blurted out He let out a chuckle
I stood in the mirror, taking a moment as I immediately set out to wear them. As I slipped into the clothes. In that moment, I felt Ethan’s soft touch as he gently caressed my shoulders from behind. I looked at him from the mirror and saw his tired eyes staring back at me. He looked like he was still struggling to put a smile on. “Why do you need to smile? There’s nothing funny right now” I said Ethan met my gaze as his expression softened “For you, I’ll always be in my best mood” he replied My lips curved into a slight smile at his words. But I still went back to concentrating on what I was doing “Love,” Ethan called out and I looked through the mirror again, noticing his creased brows “Where are you going?” He asked “Training,” I answered, raising my shoulders in a shrug Ethan listened for more explanation but I decided to let him figure it out himself When he realized I wasn’t going to spill it out, he asked again “What are you going to train for?” “To
I opened the door, and dad was there with a shirt and trouser in hand.“How did he know?” I thought as I stood there for a moment astonished“Let him change into these and tell him I said ‘hi’” he said as he made his way back.I looked back at Ethan and caught the familiar sly smile playing on his
I changed my long flowy gown to a short skimpy dress that complimented my stature. I had long straight legs which helped a lot and made me embody the theme of the show. As the lead model, I opened the show with a long, calculated and rehearsed stride. I could hear gentle clicks of the camera as
As we drove back home, the car was filled with the soothing sounds of music, a playlist that Ethan had curated just for me.He had one hand on the wheel while his other hand intertwined with mine. We had escorts trailing behind us, but it felt like we were alone.“Let's make a quick stop here, mom
“He's my son, Jane,” dad's voice raised up a little too loud“And I am your wife” Ma Jane fired back“Since he came, I have suddenly become invincible” Ma Jane said in an emotionally packed tone “Janet I am trying to make up for lost times” Ma Jane then gave a hot and sharp reply.“No pierce, you
