" 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."
Elara's heart pounds faster as the Priest announce them as a newlywed couple.So it's official now, she's now Mrs Owen."You may now kiss your bride. "The Priest announced with a smile on his face. Her cheeks burned when she saw Liam was leaning closer to her. She closes her eyes waiting to feel his lips on her.She then felt a soft thing peck her lips. She opens her eyes and saw Liam looking away with his emotionless eyes.It was just a peck, and she felt nothing. Her heartaches, he doesn't want to kiss her.Looking at Liam now, she really could tell that he doesn't like what's happening now.He's irritated even though he had no emotion on his face, but she could tell that he is not happy but annoyed.It broke her heart into a million pieces; she couldn't blame him, though. She's also a force to marry him, but she doesn't feel any annoyance. She felt happy. She felt like she made the right decision to marry him. She felt like she belongs to him.After the wedding ceremony ends, they
