Ready For The Event

Chapter 21Elena was so worried that she kept thinking about her discussion with Grandpa and the reason for Bryan's anger.But a knock on the door interrupted her; she dressed her gown properly, thinking it was Bryan and ready to apologize to him for listening to his grandfather's story.“ You can come in now!” Elena sat on the bed, ready to have the conversation and eager to dig out the truth.“ Mr Bryan instructed me to bring your food up here since you left before the food was served.” The maid explained, walking inside the room with a plate of food.Elena was disappointed; she was not expecting a maid; she wanted to talk to Bryan, not a maid.“ Why would Bryan send the maid to bring me food? I thought he was angry with me?” Elena asked herself while staring at the maid with the tray in her hand.“ Where will I keep it for you ma'am!” The maid asked her.But Elena ignored the question, then went ahead to ask her own.“ Where is Bryan?” “ He just left the house!” She replied quickl

Mixed Reactions

Chapter 22The ride to the event venue was a fast one; Elena didn't even know that it was close by.“You stay right here, ma'am. I have to inform Mr. Miller about your arrival,” the chauffeur instructed Elena before walking inside the magnificent hotel door.Elena opened the car door and brought one of her legs down from the car as she admired the beauty of the hotel, wondering what the inside would look like.“I guess I misunderstood everything. Bryan is definitely going to walk me inside the hall. I think I'm going to enjoy this night,” Elena smiled to herself.She started imagining herself holding Bryan's hand and walking majestically inside the hall, with everyone looking at them and commenting on her beauty.While thinking about that, she smiled.Then she saw the chauffeur returning.She tried to look behind him, hoping to see Bryan come out with him, but the chauffeur returned alone.“Why is he coming back alone? Don't tell me I'm going to walk around that hall tonight like an

Carlos First Tears

Chapter 23Rita continued knocking on Carlos's door, but he was not responding.Then she saw Vivian approaching. She was a bit scared that there might be a fight again.“I hope you don't mind. I was just trying to check on my son. He was meant to sign a deal with the Choi Group today in Florida, but I haven't seen him since yesterday.” Rita was careful with her choice of words; she didn't want to say anything that would make Vivian angry with her again.As Vivian came closer to the door, Rita stepped backwards.“He is meant to sign a deal with the Choi Group? Like the almighty Choi Group?” Vivian asked, her eyes widening as she looked at Rita for quick answers.The old lady nodded. “Yes, he has always wanted to sign a deal with that company. It will give him the chance to be among the most sought-after tech companies in the world,” Rita replied, still afraid of Vivian, who had automatically turned into a bully.“Wow! Signing with them means more money, right?” Vivian smiled in a sinis

Seeking for Answers

Chapter 24Vivian glanced at Rita, who was throwing questions at her.“I do not know! I'm telling the truth right now! I had no idea about the event not up until today!” Vivian continued defending herself, raising her tone and forcing herself to shed tears, but the tears were not forthcoming.But Rita didn't want to give up. She knew Carlos so well and also understood how much he loved and cherished Vivian. Shouting at her and crying meant she did something that hurt him deeply.“Why do I feel like you are lying? I don’t think I believe you right now! Tell me what you did. You went to his documents, right? Did you tamper with his paperwork? Talk to me! What did you do?” Rita kept asking her those questions.The truth was that Vivian had never cared about Carlos or anything that had to do with his work. She was just there for the benefits she was getting, trying to provide a good life for her child.“I'm telling you the truth, Rita! You can ask your son if he will tell you the truth.

Tricky Vivian

Chapter 25“Rules? What rule are you talking about? I had no idea that the Choi group gave my son a rule!” Rita answered, raising her voice in a frustrated tone.“Hm, that means there is a lot you have no idea about, and I wonder why Carlos decided to keep them away from you too,” Nick replied, and kept quiet again.All those things were not making any sense to Rita. All she wanted to know was the main problem, not all the long stories.“Nick, please, I beg you in the name of my late mother, please tell me what happened. Tell me all that I need to know.”“I am sorry, ma'am, for beating around the bush. I will go straight to the point now,” Nick assured her.He kept quiet again, but this time, Rita was not ready to say a word to him.After some seconds of silence, he continued.“The Choi group, as we know, are the most influential tech companies in the world, and every company would love to sign a deal with them. So, earlier this year, they came out publicly that they were ready to par

Lame Excuses

Chapter 26“Please, Vivian! Don't hurt yourself! It's not worth it!” Rita pleaded, trying to take the knife from Vivian's hands.“No, allow me to hurt myself and my baby, since my husband is so angry with me that he cannot tell me what I did! You know that I always want the best for Carlos, right? I would never want him to lose any deal. Now he is proudly telling us that he lost his dream deal because of me!” Vivian cried, tears streaming down her face.Rita felt pity for her, still trying to stop her from hurting herself.Carlos, deep in thought and regret, heard the noise coming from the corridor. He heard his mother pleading and decided to run out of the room to see what was happening.He was reluctant at first but, as the noise intensified, he stood up and went to the door.He was shocked to see his wife with a knife, trying to harm herself.“What are you trying to do? Are you out of your senses? You made me lose my job; now you want to kill my unborn child? Why?” Carlos shouted

Unexpected Kiss

Chapter 27“That's because I thought I could fix another appointment with the Choi group!” Carlos shouted.“You’re making me look like a horrible person without even finding out what happened! Why didn’t you confront me that day? Now that I’ve forgotten everything that happened, you bring it up? The only thing I can remember now is that I fell asleep!” Vivian yelled back, rushing out of the room, pretending to cry.Rita felt pity for her as she watched Vivian dash out from the room.“I think we’ve been too harsh on her. We’ve lost the deal already; we can’t afford to lose her too!” Rita told Carlos, gently pulling his hand indirectly stopped him from going after Vivian.Carlos clenched his fists, struggling to balance his emotions. Watching Vivian cry and losing a contract were two things he couldn’t handle at the same time.“Carlos, you need to think this through. We can settle this without anyone getting hurt. I’ll find out how the Millers group got the contract without a wife. I’m

Suspecting Elena

Chapter 28Grandpa Morris stood by the doorstep, he grasped, with his mouth wide open, covering his eyes with his hand like a toddler.Bryan quickly jerked away from Elena, while she quickly glanced at the floor, wiping her lips with her palms in a childlike manner.The room fell silent for a moment before Grandpa Morris broke the stillness.“I’m sorry for interrupting! I had no idea you two were in here!” The old man’s voice shook, but his face was beaming with smiles. He swallowed his saliva then turned to leave, but Bryan quickly stood up.“You don’t have to apologize, Grandpa. I was just about to leave the room,” Bryan stammered, stealing glances at both his grandfather and Elena, who wished for the earth to swallow her whole, while rubbing his fingers.Grandpa Morris chuckled, insisting that he leave the room first, clearly delighted.“The maids told me those two don’t sleep in the same room, that they’re not intimate, but I just confirmed with my own eyes that they are! And it

Vivian's Deception

Chapter 29Rita turned towards Vivian when she heard that name from Vivian's mouth.“Where is that Witch? She has the guts to return to this house after leaving without our consent? I am sure I'm going to deal with her!” Rita stood up and went to the window, stretching forth her neck and looking for Elena.“No, I am talking about the lady on the screen!” Vivian corrected, trying to get a closer look at the figure walking down the walkway.Rita returned her gaze to the television screen once more. After a minute, she started laughing.“Don't tell me you miss Elena! How can she be the one walking down the walkway as the wife of Miller's grandson? Can't you see that woman is pregnant? Elena is barren!” Rita countered immediately.Vivian scratched her hair. She knew her friend very well, but looking at the lady's walking steps, she thought she walked like Elena. However, she believed everything Rita said—Elena was a poor nobody and could not come into contact with such a rich and wealthy

Labor Day

Chapter 30Five months later.“Bryan! Please help me! I think the baby is coming!” Elena shouted from her room.She struggled to stand up from the ground, but the pain in her lower abdomen was unbearable. Her waist felt so heavy; the baby inside her womb seemed too much for her to carry.“Bryan! Anyone? Please help me!” she cried out again.Suddenly, she felt something like liquid gushing out from her body. She slipped her hand through it.“God! My water just broke! I am in labor! Somebody! Help!” Elena screamed, shouting at the top of her lungs.At that moment, the maid, who had suspected she heard a voice, ran into the room and saw Elena begging for help. She quickly rushed toward her, but Elena was too heavy for her to carry. The maid gently laid her back on the floor and rushed out to get help.Elena could no longer endure the pain, but she felt powerless to save herself. She watched the maid run out, leaving her all alone. Glancing at the bed frame, she thought of holding onto i
