Jack sent Elara home and called her best friend and a doctor; the news they received was shocking to them; they knew Elara; she wasn’t the type of girl to sleep around.
Elara was sitting at the edge of her bed while hugging her knees and sobbing quietly. While Mia is comforting her.”Please don’t cry, Elara. It's not good for your health. tell me, how did this happen.? "Mia asked, totally confused and shocked by what she had heard.Mia has never seen Elara with a guy; she was a shy innocent virgin girl. She never had a boyfriend. So it was unexpected and shocking news for her.So how come she got pregnant?Mia was getting impatient, she said in a loud voice."Elara, stop crying and tell me how did it happen? As far as I know, I never saw you with a guy, and for God sake, Elara! You never had a boyfriend, so how come this thing happened?"Elara wiped her tears before facing her friend, still hugging her knees."This is all your fault. "She said in a low voice. Elara just glared at her friend.Elara took a deep breath before she started to explain it to her friend. She explained everything about what happened at the club except how they made the baby.She also explained what happened to her last week after she talked to Liam outside the restaurant. After explaining everything to her friend, Mia was left shocked, with her eyes widened.Elara wiped her tears and pouted cutely to her friend, who was still in shock."Now you know, this is all your fault. If only you haven't dragged me at that club and made me drunk, this wouldn't have happened to me. She raised her voice, bursting into tears. Mia blinked a few times to process everything in her mind. She sighed and went closer to Elara, who was crying. She sat next to her, caressing her back."Hey... I'm so sorry, Elara. If only I knew everything would end up like this, I wouldn't have forced you to come with me. "She said as she felt guilty."You're right; this is all my fault. "She said in a low voice. She knew how much Elara worked hard to earn money to support her family, but this thing happened to her friend because of what she did. But now she was crying because of a mistake she made. She wiped her tears and looked at her friend with her swollen red eyes. She shook her head and gave her a small smile."Look at me. I am hopeless now, Mia. Now I have a reason to stop working because I'm pregnant. But I can't because they need my support. You know that, right? "Mia nodded and hugged her tight, making her burst into tears again."Shhh.. it will be all right. I am here, Elara. I will help you get through this; at least, this is all I can do to help you. And I'll make sure you won't face this problem alone. "===========================In Crownfield CompanyDriving through the busy streets, Liam made his way toward the company; as he reached the company building, he parked his car in a private area and sauntered toward the entrance.As he got near his office, but he abruptly stopped. “What the hell they are doing here,” He thought and made a U-turn and was about to walk.“Mr Liam own stop were you are, my son”Liam signs and walked toward them. “Good morning, Mom and Dad. Is it something special today? You, too, blessed me with your presence .”His dad shook his head and spoke, “ Let go in your office and talk, son.”“ok fine, let's go “ he walked into his office, followed by his parents. Understand him he loved his parents, but some times they are too annoying.------“no way, dad, I am not doing an arranged marriage, “how can you say that it’s for my good? Dad, you can’t force me to marry someone.“We are not forcing you, son. We are giving you options; you know, after your marriage, we have to think about your sister too dear.’“and it's up to get a bride as soon as possible, or I will set up in an arranged marriage”, his mom threatened him.Liam gazed at her in disbelief, He threw his briefcase in anger.2 thousand years later
Liam was busy. He read some paper works and typed some report that he had to finish before the month ended.
.He was so focused on his work when his secretary knocked on his door and went inside his office with a few folders in his arms.Liam sighed with exhaustion as he stared at his secretary, walking closer to him."What is that? "He said, pointing at the folders in his arms."This is from the vice president of production and administration, Mr Owen. His secretary said that they need your signature before they passed it to the Board of Directors. "He said and put the folders on the desk. Liam read the reports before signing them. After signing it, he handed it to his secretary and told him to leave.But before his secretary left the office, he turned around and said."Mr Owen, someone wants to talk to you. She said it's urgent. "Liam stopped writing and looked at his secretary."She? "His secretary nodded."Yes, Mr Owen. It's a she. ""Tell her to f*CK off. "He said coldly and turned his attention to his laptop."Yes, Mr Owen. "After a few minutes, his secretary came back again, making him frown."She won't leave Mr Owen. She said it's crucial, and she needs to talk to you personally. "Liam rolled his eyes and nodded his head."Let her in. "His secretary nodded. After a few seconds, his secretary came back with a gorgeous familiar woman.His eyes widen when he saw it's her.What the f*CK does she wants from me now?"I will be outside, Mr Owen; call me if you need anything, sir. "When the door closed, he looked at her with a severe face. He noticed that she's a bit nervous. But he had to admit; she was beautiful and sexy. Indeed gorgeous. But it's not the right time to compliment this woman in front of him.He knew she came here because she needed something from him. He cleared his throat before he started the conversation."You're the woman at the restaurant, right? "She nodded innocently, making him curse in his mind at how cute and innocent her gestures were, and it's testing him."What do you want? "He said in a cold tone."I-I have an important m-matter to discuss w-with you. "He raised his eyebrow; he knew it! She needed something else from him. And he never got the wrong idea. This woman was the same."And what is it? Come on, tell me, miss. I have essential things to do than to talk to you. "He saw pain crossed her eyes, and it made him worried, and he immediately regretted what he said."Tell me what it is. "She took a deep breath."I-I'm... ""You're what? "She gulped hard.Oh, come on, Elara! Say it!"Come on, say it! You're wasting my time! "This time he raised his voice, making her flinched."I'm pregnant, and you're the father. "Liam's mouth hangs open, and his eyes widen in shock. Everything happened so fast. He tried to process things in his mind. He couldn't think straight. " I'm pregnant, and you're the father. "Her words keep on repeating on his head. He never expects that this will happened, and reality hit him. He didn't use protection that night! And now, he's having a baby to a stranger. He doesn't even know her, he only knows her name, and that's all. He regrets that he didn't use protection; this girl Infront of him is carrying his child. Is she even a good woman? Will she be a good mother to his baby?He should have been careful that night. Now he regrets it. " Please say something. "She heard her soft-angelic voice. He looks at her with his still shock expression. " A-are you sure t-that's mine? "He said in shock. Elara nodded. " Yes. I'm sure it's yours. "He ran his hands through his hair and took a deep breath. Relax Liam! Think! Think! After a minute, he finally calmed down and told
" are you sure you'll be fine, Elara? Do you want me to stay? "Mia asked while they are now standing outside her apartment.Mia was with her earlier when she went to talk to Liam. In fact, without Mia's help, she wouldn't have the chance to speak to him.After she walked out at Liam's office, she immediately hugs Mia and burst into tears." Yeah. Don't worry; I'll be fine. And thanks by the way. "Mia nodded with a small smile. She knew Mia felt pity towards her. She saw how hopeless and sad she was when they both got out of the Owen”s Company." If you need anything, just call me, okay? "She sighs and nodded, Mia, hug her for the last time before she left her.Elara walked inside her apartment. She was so exhausted today, and she noticed that she always feel tired and just wanted to sleep all day.She went to her room and took off her clothes and went inside the bathroom to take a bath. After a few minutes, she went out with her pyjamas then she sits on the edge of her bed.She was
Elara walked inside her new apartment that Mrs Owen bought for her. She put down her luggage and look around.The apartment looks expensive, and it's too big for her. Of course, Mrs. Owen purposely bought a costly and big apartment just for her because she wants her to feel comfortable." Is this okay to you, sweetie? Do you need anything else? Just tell me, and I'll give it to you. "This is too much for me.She turns around to look at Mrs Owen and smile." It's too much, ma- "" Stop calling me ma'am, instead call me, mom. ""W-what?? "She stutters in shy. Mrs Owen chuckled." Don't be shy, sweetie. After all, you'll be part of our family soon. So call me momma. "She smiles while caressing her cheeks. She nodded her head. She has no choice but to agree.Then her gaze turns to look at the man who was standing on the door; looking at them."Uhm. Who is he? "She said in a low voice, Mrs Owen turn to look at her back then back on her." That's Jason, and he will be staying here with
They are now sitting together on the sofa. Liam was seated Infront of her, and she couldn't look straight to him, she looks down while playing with her fingers.It was an awkward silence before Liam broke it." I just wanted to tell you that I'd agree to momma's plan just for the baby. "Her heart aches at that. She knew it already, but it still hurts her feelings.He only cares for the baby. Well, that's good to hear, but why am I hurting that he doesn't care for me?" I'm telling you this because I don't want you to assume things. Expectation leads to disappointment. "She nodded her head in agreement." Is that all? "She said in a low voice. She heard him sigh." Actually, no. One of the reasons why I'd agree to moms is because I wanted to make sure if that baby is mine. "She smiles sadly and turns her gaze to him." You still don't believe me; I get it. "Liam just shrugged." Can't help it. I have a trust issue. "His last statement made her confused.Trust issue? He has a hard
Elara was busy cooking the next day when she heard a knocked on the door.Jason was not there that time because Mrs Owen said she needs to talk to him, so she is now alone, but before Jason went out, he made sure that her surrounding is safe.She washes her hands and dries it using a handkerchief, and then she went to the door and opened it without even asking who's outside.Then outside she saw him in his emotionless face. Alta’s after seven days, he showed up to her." L-Liam. How are you? "He ignores her question and walks inside without asking her permission.Well, after all, she has no right to scold him. He has the right because his mother bought this apartment.She closed the door and followed Liam on the kitchen where he went." So what are you cooking? "" half fry and fry rice hm... Do you want some? "She offered." No thanks, I'm just here to check up on you. "He said with no emotion while looking around. She just nodded in return and went back to the stove and continue h
Elara woke up the next day feeling dizzy, and she felt her stomach ache. She quickly ran towards her bathroom and threw up. She felt so weak, this pregnancy makes her whole body vulnerable.After a few minutes of throwing up, she found herself on her bed. She just woke up, but she wanted to sleep again.She sighs, she was about to close her eyes again but her phone rings.She grabs her phone and answers it without looking at the caller I.D." Hello? "She said in her tired voice with her close eyes while she was lying on her back." Sis! I miss you! "She opens her eyes in surprise, she sat up in pure excitement and happiness." Oh my god, Kai! My little brother, how are you?? How's grandma? "" I'm okay, Sis, my school, is great. I'm studying hard just like what you said, Sis. And grandma is fine. In fact, she misses you. "" Really? I miss her too. Can you please hand her the phone? I need to talk to her. "" Sure, hold on a sec. "She can't help but smile after a few weeks of waitin
It's positive. "He heard the same words repeatedly. Earlier his mother called him and told him that she has the paternity result.And it came out positive.So it's really mine?Liam wasn't even shocked at the result of the paternity test. At the very first time when she told him that she's pregnant with his child, he actually believed her. Well, half of it, he still wants to make sure things.He was still in a daze while looking at the folder on his hands, he was sitting on the edge of his bed.Now that the result came out. And it turned out positive. What will happen to them now?His mother wanted him to marry Elara. That's what she wants to happen. But he can't.He just can't marry her. Marrying someone who you don't love is not right. He doesn't love her.Am I?He quickly shook his head, he keeps on denying that he doesn't love her.But every time he sees her, his heart won't stop pounding faster. His body and soul wants her, not because of lust but because his heart said so.But s
There was a long silence on the other line as Elara closed her eyes tight when she confessed everything to them.After her lunch with Liam, he drove her back to her apartment because he still needs to do some work at the company.She quickly went to her room and grabbed her phone to her grandma and her brother.Then she told them everything.She was so nervous as she waited for the other line to speak, but it was so silent.She opens her eyes and bit her bottom lip." P-please say something... "She said in a low voice. After a few minutes of silent, she heard her grandma's voice." W-why did you let this happen, Elara? W-what will happen i-if you marry this guy, Owen Liam... Do you even know him that much? "She knew her grandmother is worried about her." No, grandma. B-but he's a good guy. "Sometimes rude." This is so shocking, Elara. I didn't expect things would turn out like this. "She looks down as she felt ashamed and guilty." I'm sorry, grandma. "She heard her deep sigh."
