Bestfriend Divorced Me When I Carried His Baby by TheBlues

Greed Kelly's POV While watching Snow eating ice cream with Ana, I'm the phone. He called to ask if I'm okay and he told n jogging early in the morning.

"How about Phoebe? The issue might affect her too." nding on the balcony while talking to Pierce on at he was almost harrassed by the media while [Dad hired sbodyguards for her. She's fine. I'm more worried about Snow. She won't have the freedom to go out and roam around freely anymore.] I took a deep breath and held onto the railing. "Yeah. I'm worried about her too." A deafening silence reigns us. I don't know why I'm just standing there while listening to his breathing. Perhaps because the circumstances are pushing us away from each other. There's Klay and then this issue. I can just end this by telling the truth to the public, but I don't owe them the truth. This is my personal life. I have the right to keep this privately. I want my family to be private.

[How about you? Are you okay? You can do everything you want to end this mess.] I bit my bottom lip. "This concerns both of us, Pierce. It's not only forto decide." My decision is up to you, Kelly. Whatever you think is good for Snow.] After talking to Pierce, I called Attorney Lee again. I requested for mom's siblings to just cto the city since Attorney Lee said they're in the province, residing in the family's ancestral house. Attorney said he'll talk to them and possibly, if they agreed, they'd be here next week.

I used my tworking from hso I can personally look after my daughter. I'm only going to the company whenever I have an important meeting. Pierce toldhe won't visit for a while but he's calling everyday to ask about us.

When it was tforand my mom's siblings to meet, I personally went to the hotel where they checked in. Attorney Lee calledwhen he got there and I clast.

My heart raced as I entered the hotel room. I saw four people inside. The two women looked very sophisticated and the two men looked very strict. They're already waiting for my arrival and how the two women scoffed didn't escape from my eyes. "Kelly, you're just in time." The man wearing eyeglasses laughed sarcastically. "Just in time? She's late, Attorney. She's not the only one busy here.

I took a deep breath and slightly bowed my hair. "I'm sorry for being late." "Why don't you apologize for making us chere too? You think so highly of yourself." The woman in a red dress said, rolling her eyes.

My lips parted. They're rude! I suddenly want to growl at them for treatinglike this but I want to respect them for my mom.

I bowed my head again but I didn't apologize. I pressed my lips together and creased my forehead.

Sit down, Kelly. Mr. and Mrs. Foster, and Mr. and Mrs. Carter, this is Miss Kelly Monroe. Eva Foster's daughter." "Are you sure she's Eva's biological daughter?" 2/2 I gritted my teeth, losing my patience as I met the man's eyes. "I'm sure as hell that I am her biological daughter.

I have all the documents that would prove it. Tss! I looked at Attorney Lee. "Attorney, what are the properties that will be given to me?" "What a shameless bitch!" red and now I have proven that these people I looked at the woman in black dress. Her neck and f are greedy for power and wealth. Unfortunately for them, my mother was the legal heiress.

"Mrs. Carter, it is clearly stated in the last will and testament that Eva Foster or her child has the right-" "Clearly, Attorney, she's only after the inheritance. After she gets everything, she will abandon the family and my mother's legacy." "That is not under my scope of service anymore, Mrs. Carter. My work is to make sure that the inheritance will fall under the nof the heiress." "We are Eva's siblings, Attorney. Isn't it our right to take care of the company and my mother's legacy since Eva's dead? Why does it have to be that brat?" Attorney Lee didn't answer. I clenched my jaws and looked at my aunts and uncles. This is absurd! I am actually expecting a warm welcfrom them since I'm the child of their lost sibling but it seems they didn't even care that my mom was kidnapped when she was so young. I'm very disappointed that I expected a lot from them but in the end, I will be the one who would suffer. I thought they'd welcme with a warm hug but I was wrong. So wrong.

The man wearing eyeglasses lifted from his seat. He stared down atand from how he looks at me, I feel like he's belittling me.

"You are too young to handle the company. What can you do for an empire? If you didn't know, Foster Empire is harder to handle than you expected." I pulled myself up and met his sharp eyes. "I'm currently the CEO of my father's company." He laughed sarcastically. "The company that almost sank because you got pregnant early just like your mother?" "What do you know about my mother? You didn't know her." "We know the story, Kelly Monroe. I know the story. You got pregnant, that's why your father got sick, right?" "That's not true! You didn't know the story, sir." He smirked. "I saw the news a week ago. It seems like you have a very messy and unstable personal life. Are you sure you can still handle the company given that you also have a kid that needs your attention? I suggest you focus on your child. She might get abducted too." 1 balled my fists as my eyes sharpened. This is what he wants? To provoke me. To insultand makegive up. Now I know why their own mother didn't trust them. They are greedy.

I proudly lifted my chin as I spoke. "I want to take over the company, Attorney. Please contactif I need to do something or whatever. Next week, I want the Foster Empire under my leadership." I turned my back on them and started walking away while I could hear them callingwith so much anger. I chere to peacefully talk to them but if they're gonna insultand my family just like that...I won't let it slide. I didn't cthis far to let just anyone step on my shadow. I will never back down. If they're greedy, then I'll be more greedy.

"A-Are you angry, mommy?* I immediately shook my head and caressed her cheek. "No. No, sweetie. Of course not. Mommy will never get angry at you." Really? But you have to telleverything you tatalk to him if he calls again, okay?" "Why, mommy? Are you gonna scold him?" out with your secret friend and promisethat you'll let I shook my head. Tm just curious about your secret friend, sweetie. I wanna meet him too." She looked very happy because of what I said. "I will introduce you to him once he calls again, mommy." I nodded and pulled her closer to me. I hugged her so tight as I squeezed my eyes closed. I felt Snow gently caressing my hair, soothing me.

"I don't have friends before, mommy. But now I have many friends. I also have a daddy." A lone tear escaped my eyes. If only I'm courageous enough to take the risk. If only I can fight for both my daughter and her father simultaneously.

I pulled away from the hug and cupped her cheeks. "You will gain so many friends now, sweetheart. Mommy promised that I will introduce you to many friends." "Really? Thank you, mommy! I love you." 1 love you too, pumpkin..."

We spent the day together again. It was Ana who's going out whenever we need to buy something or what. I don't wanna go out because I might reveal the truth in no time. don't like it when people are gossiping about me. Reason why I chose a simple life. But the simple and peaceful life I always wanted is impossible now. I need to get stronger. I need to broaden and strengthen my connection and I can only do that if I'm on the line-up of the most influential people in the country. Even when I hate attention, I need the public. I need them on my side.

Walking along the hallway of the event hall where the party for the Foster Empire was being held.

m Attorney Lee hired someone to organize the event. Tonight, I will be introduced as the new CEO and President of Foster Empire. This will be a big scoop so I expected a lot of people from the media.

om The two people guarding the huge double door opened it for me. The crowd immediately turned their heads to my direction while I walked N straight towards Attorney Lee, who's standing in front. At the mini stage was the event host "And now, please give a round of applause to the new CEO and President of Foster Empire.

Miss Kelly Monroe." I smiled proudly as I slowly climbed on to the mini stage. The people clapping are looking atwith smilles on their faces. Meanwhile, I can see my mom's siblings at the round table in front of me, looking so disgusted.

I accepted the microphone and the bouquet of flowers that Uncle Connor handed to me. He doesn't have a choice but to act that everything's okay and he's happy foror else this will be chaotic.

This is very overwhelming," I started as I caressed my chest. It's genuine. I'm really happy but there's a huge part ofthat keeps on denying the truth that I just discovered today before I chere.
