Fractured Promises のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 71 - チャプター 80

Ellyse and Kai went inside one of the private rooms of the event. This was a VIP room that can only be acquired if you’re a crucial member to the organization. Their lips moved against eachother, not wanting to part. His arms snaked on the small of her back, touching her in a way that ignited her body. Ellyse’s arms were on both of his cheeks, cupping them as she deepens the kiss. Kai removed his coat while kissing her before throwing it somewhere on the floor. Both of them were hungry for eachother. His tongue snaked into her mouth, devouring every inch of her. Her breathing hitched and became heavier with every second that passes. His hand moved from her back to her neck before he instinctively pushed her back against the frame of the door. She raked his hair, pulling its strands while he worked on und

"This feels like a date," Ellyse couldn't help but comment. The restaurant screamed opulence and extravagance. Majority of the people dining inside were dressed formally, there's a live orchestra playing at the middle of the resto, making the whole atmosphere even more grand.Riden chuckled, looking down at his plate to avoid her gaze. "Well, you can interpret this however you'd like," She froze.They're currently being served their second course which is a deconstructed salmon salad."What do you mean?" Ellyse felt confused, she didn't know what to take from his remark. Was that his way of telling her that it is a date?His gaze stayed on her for a few minutes before he shook his head, "This is to thank you, Ellyse," He said meaningfully."Yes, and thank you too...for giving me an opportunity to work with you, and get to know you," She smiled at him and he nodded."So please, let's enjoy this. You don't have to think o

Ellyse felt somewhat guilty for what had transpired last night. Yes, she was at fault for missing their wedding anniversary celebration. She agreed to Kai and she didn’t even inform him about her not being able to come. However, if Riden had asked her for dinner and she didn’t forget about the celebration, she would’ve declined him immediately. She woke up with such a heavy heart. She kept staring at the ceiling, pondering and debating if whether or not she should call him or text him to apologize. What happened last night between the three of them was a result of constant stress and anxiety. Kai was probably frustrated, and knowing that she was with Riden made him even more mad. Ellyse felt guilty, but she didn’t like the way he spoke to her. And Riden was probably just trying to help her. Either way, what she did was still wrong. She forced herself out of the bed to cook breakfast for her

Ellyse’s hands trembled as she saw the two visible lines appear on the pregnancy test she took just earlier today. Her and Kai have been intimate for quite some time now, but it didn’t occur to her that she could be pregnant. They were careful! God knows they were careful. She tracked her period every single month and she knew when to not have sex! How the hell did she fall pregnant? The first thought in her head knew that she had to call Kai immediately to inform him. This way, she could share this bittersweet news to someone.Ellyse quickly went out of the bathroom to get her phone from her room. She clicked on his number, waiting for him to answer. A few rings later, he responded.“Hello, Ellyse, I’m sorry I can’t talk right now I’m driving somewhere,” She was taken a back at his urgency.“O-Oh, well, where are you going?” She couldn’t help but ask him.“To Agatha,” He said it so simply, l

Ellyse was surprised to see Kai calling her in the middle of the day. It was something that she had anticipated for the longest time and yet when it came, she found herself feeling nervous. “Hello?” She answered almost immediately. “Ellyse…” Shivers ran down her spine as she heard his voice echo through the phone. “Hey,” She answered breathlessly. “My…my secretary told me you called yesterday,” Her mouth gaped open. Right, she did ask Kevin to tell him that. Why was she expecting something else? “Ah, yes,” She licked her lips. Would she tell him? But she doesn’t feel ready all so suddenly. “Uh…I was just calling to ask how you were doing,” She stated, her voice quivering. There was a long line of silence at first before she heard him sigh heavily.
