Edward’s pov

She shuddered when I yelled at her like that as she had expected so much but not that. She nodded and looked away before taking up her bags.

I watched her walk out, yet not even a drop of care moved within me.

I just wanted her out and if possible dead. She was dead to me.

My phone buzzed as I picked it up. It was my assistant Bryan.

“I’m seriously not in a good mood. You better not be reminding me of anything.”

“It’s just that the new chef we hired is here.”

That sent bells ringing in my head. Eloise.

“Have you given her all she needs. The car, the house, the…”

“Sir? Don’t you think it’s suspicious you’re doing all this? To be honest, she was thinking of the worst things today. I believe we should slow down a bit.”

I nodded and took in deep breaths. Maybe he was right.

“And her daughter had a mini spot like you told us to create for her.”

I sighed and nodded.

“Give her the stuff to sign. I’ll be there soon.”

“Alright, sir,”

With that, he hung up as I sat down on my sofa

    Eloise’s povI was still in the office looking out when a knock came on the door and a woman entered.“Hello, I will be your assistant. I’ll handle all your calls and checking and—“I raised my hand to stop her. “Excuse me. I am just a chef who was hired for this position. No offense, but for the kind of work I said I wanted to do, I don’t think all this good stuff is supposed to be amongst the benefits.”She smiled and nodded. “I see. Well, you’ll be briefed later this afternoon. I’m only trying to introduce myself so you’ll know what you’re getting.”“I’m just a chef,” I scoffed. This was getting ridiculous. How are we even in this situation? It felt weird but I didn't know what to do next. All I could do was pray this job wasn't like a scam one even when it looked legit back in Paris when I had joined them. “Ma'am?” The woman called me as I looked at her with a small smile, trying to be comfortable even when my insides were boiling.“Mummy,” Selena tugged at my hand as I looked d

    Eloise’s povPresent dayI woke up that morning to my daughter’s soft breath. The sun was rising through the curtain of the small but clean room they had given us. It wasn’t Paris, but it was quiet—a new beginning.I looked at Selena; her little hand tightly gripped the side of her blanket. She looked so still. So pure.I sighed and touched her face as I brushed her hair out of her face.“Hey baby,” I smiled as she stretched awake while blinking. “You should get up. We need to leave for work.”She blinked multiple times. “Are we going someplace, Mama?”I smiled back and kissed her forehead. “Yes, baby. I have work today. But don’t worry. You’re coming with me.”She clapped her hands and sat up quickly, her excitement making me laugh. “Yay! I want to see your new kitchen!”“Not today, my little chef. But you’ll see where Mama works.”We both got ready. I wore a soft cream blouse and simple black pants, and my hair was neatly packed up. Not too dressed but serious was my aim. It was my

    Edward’s povI sat down with a calm note on my face as I saw the doctor walking in.Wearing his white coat, his glasses balanced on his nose. He looked at me with a faint smile.“Good evening, Edward,” he cooed. “I trust you’re well?”I met his gaze with frosty eyes. “Just do it,” I snarled. “Give me what you brought.”I was impatient and it showed. But I didn’t care. I needed this done so I could start pressing out my judgment.He gave a slow nod. “Of course.”He kept his back to me as he walked across the room and put a black medical case on the table. When he’d opened that, I knew with absolute certainty what he’d take out of it.But I had to have it confirmed by somebody else. He glanced up at me, then over at Charlotte who was standing hard and tight in a corner as if she were a schoolgirl who’d been caught stealing. She wouldn’t look me in the eye.Dr. Harris opened the folder, skimmed the first page with his eyes, and then he coughed softly.He looked straight at me and proclai

    Edward’s povIt was late in the evening. I was in my study. The golden lamp on my table was throwing a soft beam on the sparse documents and the unattended cup of coffee. The house was dead silent, too silent to my liking. Charlotte had taken Carmen with her to the room and I had got some time for myself after a long time, to sort things out in my head.I tilted against the hard back of my leather chair and pressed both hands against my eyes, rubbing them slowly as if by doing so would help alleviate the problem I was having.But then before giving up; before everything went black inside me, there were two buzzes from my phone.For a second or two I blinked at it nonchalantly.It was an unsaved number.Not waiting for a second ring, I picked up, I got up from the chair, and shuffled to the door. Slowly I turned the lock. It was essential that no one came in, especially Charlotte. I had to have this call alone and for some reason, I felt like it was an important one. A very important

    Edward’s povWe got back home that evening. I was so mad at her that I couldn’t even say anything to her.I could feel her staring at me but I didn’t care.I got back and heard Carmen playing in her room but I walked to the living room and turned to face Charlotte. I was mad.I started to laugh at first while the pain hit me.She was confused as to why I was laughing.“You know the funny thing is that I actually believed… just for a moment… that perhaps you had changed.”Her face drained of color. “Edward, don’t—”I held up a hand to stop her. “Don’t beg. Don’t explain. Just listen.” She swallowed and nodded her head.“Bloody fool,” I said, and paced a bit. “A complete bloody twit to let you back in—back into my life. To think maybe. Maybe time had made you better. Wiser.”She tried to tooth me as I stepped back. "Don't touch me. Don't come near me." She started to cry. “Edward…”“I want you to get out of this house and my life at once.”“Edward, please—don’t do this. I’m pregnant… a
