Semua Bab I'm Not Your Mother: Bab 1 - Bab 10

Samuel hurriedly opened up the oatmeal and set it down on the tray table. He then arranged the spoon, napkin, and cup neatly."This water is warm, and this is your favorite blueberry oatmeal. Have some first while I peel the eggs for you," he said.I accepted Samuel's care without hesitation. I first met him when Grandpa brought him back home when I was 15. He became my most loyal companion since then.The pain in my stomach only subsided after I had a few mouthfuls of oatmeal. When I looked up, I noticed that Samuel's eyes were red."You don't know how worried I was when I heard the news of your car accident." His lips were trembling as he spoke in a choked manner. I immediately felt a lump in my throat. Anyone would have felt afraid when met with a car accident. I was only lucky not to have gotten seriously hurt.I did not want Yohan and Julian to worry, so I thought I'd pretend to lose my memories just to mess with them. But how would they possibly worry about me when they we

It was raining heavily on that day. Yohan and I were on the highway. Someone called him, and I could hear the voice on the other end clearly. "A group of debt collectors are heading to the Walker residence to cause trouble. They're going after Ms. Walker now."Yohan turned and glanced at me. I knew he wasn't asking for my permission—he was informing me that he would be heading to the Walker residence to look for Emily.We were currently heading in the opposite direction of the Walker residence.I softly said, "Just drop me at the service area up ahead. I'll take a taxi back on my own."Even though I quickly opened my umbrella, I was still soaked through as soon as I got out of the car. The black Bentley sped past, splashing water all over me.It seemed ironic that our expired relationship was met with a rainy day.The old taxi I happened to be in started to skid on the highway. The moment the car lost control, a chill ran through me and I quickly buckled my seatbelt.My heart

I took one last look at the villa before leaving the courtyard. I would never come back again.Tina Carter stood by the door, quietly wiping her tears away as she watched me. "Are you really leaving, Madam?"Tina had been here ever since I moved in. She had been so kind to me, treating me as if I was her own. I figured she would be the only person who would genuinely shed tears for my departure.I held Tina's hands in mine and softly smiled. "This is a good thing for me. You should be congratulating me instead."…Everything was done efficiently on Yohan's side—his assets were transferred to me shortly after.I used the spare money in my account to purchase a 2,000-square-foot loft that caught my eye last month.The previous owner had immigrated, and the place was already renovated in a romantic continental style. I took a liking to it at once—no renovations were needed, and I could even move in on the same day.I quickly signed the agreement and had the movers send all my belo

How did Samuel manage to have such clear and fair skin? It would certainly be soft to touch—perhaps it would even bruise easily if I were to exert some force.His bathrobe was hanging loosely, so much so that I could see his exposed chest. From my higher vantage point, I could even make out how toned and well-defined his muscles were from constant exercise.I found Samuel attractive just from looking at him alone. I started imagining the ways I could make him cry if I even teased him a little. My cheeks burned red as soon as I realized where my imaginations were headed. I shook my head repeatedly, trying to clear off the images. I had to be drunk out of my mind to be thinking of these.Just as I leaned down to cover Samuel up with the blanket, I casually looked up and was met with his gaze.I lost my balance out of surprise and fell on top of him. My face was buried into his bare chest.Embarrassed, I tried to get off Samuel, but the rocking lounge chair made it hard to find a

Today was a Sunday. As soon as I opened the door, I saw Julian holding onto a large photo album.He acted casually, slipping through the door crack and sat on the couch. It was as if he had forgotten that he had called me to beg for his forgiveness the last time he was here.Julian flipped open the photo album and pulled me over. "Look, Mommy—this was when I was still in your tummy! And this was when I was just born! Aren't I cute? Grandma said I was the cutest baby in the entire hospital!"He was trying to stir up my motherly love for him. But as I looked at my photo, all I felt was a deep sense of pity for the person I was back then.I was looking gaunt in the photo, yet my belly was round and swollen.Back then, I was tormented by morning sickness, throwing up everything I ate. I looked completely drained, even my hair was dry and lifeless.Julian was especially mischievous, always kicking me in the middle of the night.Looking at the photos, I couldn't help but sigh. "How se
