"Your Aunt Astra and I need to talk," Soren stated, his voice deep and firm, leaving no room for arguments.

For a moment, I was too shocked to even react, and when I finally snapped out of it, words betrayed me.

Slowly, my gaze moved between Soren and Aunt Astra, silently asking questions that I couldn't voice out.

Well, the two were too roped into whatever tension that pulsed between them to notice.

At the end, I only pursed my lips, rose from the chair and slowly left the

  • PREGNANT FOR MY EX’S BILLIONAIRE UNCLE    A new beginning..

    Liora. Because I wasn't his choice.... I swallowed bitterly as I thought, the realisation further ruining my mood. I didn't have a powerful family behind me. I didn't have the same social standing as him... But did that mean my fate was sealed, and I had to accept whatever fate brought my way? Did that mean I was supposed to remain at the bottom forever? "No!" I muttered under my breath, my fingers tightly clenched. I was done being someone that everyone looked down on. I was done being that easy to dismiss, to overlook. Capital Elite had provided me with an opportunity to rise from the ashes, and I was going to take it. I was going to be a force that everyone had no option but to bow to. So what if I were an orphan? I was not going to allow those statuses to define me. They had defined me for twenty years. Not anymore. With those thoughts, a smile, ghostly and almost serene, tacked at the corners of my lips. Slowly, I unclenched my fingers before I closed my eye

    Liora "Your Aunt Astra and I need to talk," Soren stated, his voice deep and firm, leaving no room for arguments. For a moment, I was too shocked to even react, and when I finally snapped out of it, words betrayed me. Slowly, my gaze moved between Soren and Aunt Astra, silently asking questions that I couldn't voice out. Well, the two were too roped into whatever tension that pulsed between them to notice. At the end, I only pursed my lips, rose from the chair and slowly left the room, heading to the exit. At the door, I clenched and unclenched my nails as I stood there, hesitantly, the curious part of me begging me to linger a little longer and listen, while the decent part of me urged me to leave. At the end, I stood a few inches from the cracked door, my ears perked, as I shamelessly waited, if only to catch a few words, just to satisfy my curiosity. " What are you doing here, Mom?" Just then, Soren's familiar voice cut through the cracked door, and my hand imme

  • PREGNANT FOR MY EX’S BILLIONAIRE UNCLE    Excuse us.

    Liora. "Do you two know each other?" I asked, curiosity flickering in my eyes. I didn't know why I decided to ask. Maybe because of the thinly veiled tension that pulsed between the two? Or, was it because of how they kept on staring at each other?... yeah. That. Coupled with how they resembled each other. For a moment, at my question, Soren froze, his hand, which was holding a folk, faltering, but only briefly. And, watching all that, then adding my earlier doubts, I was halfway convinced that my doubts were real. "What do you think?" After a moment of silence, Soren asked, his features straight and all composed, giving nothing away. For a moment, my resolve wavered, and I began questioning my own logic. Coming to think of it, maybe I was just overthinking, or maybe there was something the two weren't saying. Either way, did it even matter? Thinking about it was clearly pointless. Besides, it was not like I knew much about Aunt Astra either. For the years that we had kn

  • PREGNANT FOR MY EX’S BILLIONAIRE UNCLE    Do you?

    Liora. "How do you know her?" The fork was a few inches from my lips when Soren asked, his voice deep and unreadable, and I froze, just momentarily, before a smile bloomed on my lips. Slowly, I placed the spoon back on the plate before I turned to face him, my eyes watering as memories from years ago resurfaced in my mind. "She and I have known each other for close to two decades now," I whispered, my voice all shaky. "Two decades." He wore a distant face as he repeated, as if he was trying to figure something out. Well, he also looked intrigued, and I took it as if he wanted to know more about me, my past and such. So, I went on. "She is kind and loving. If I were to make a wish, I would want to be her daughter in the next life, maybe?" I whispered, then I laughed at how silly that sounded. "We met under very strange circumstances," I added, a mocking smile tagging at the corners of my lips. Before, my life in the orphanage was genuinely horrible, but that was all.

  • PREGNANT FOR MY EX’S BILLIONAIRE UNCLE    How?

    Liora. "What are we celebrating this time?" Aunt Astra asked, her eyes moving to Soren, who stood a few meters away, looking out of place. "Love?" before I could respond, she asked, and heat flooded my cheeks. Were we truly celebrating love? That sounded... warm? The thought itself had me blushing. "A lot of things!" After recomposing myself, I added, my features softening as I recalled all the good things that had happened to me recently. There was the baby, the graduation, the job, and maybe.... Love.. The thought had my hand immediately flying to my chest, as if trying to steady it. " This is Soren...." At the end, I couldn't bring myself to say all those things to Aunt Astra, and instead, I introduced Soren, my eyes softening as I looked at him. The fact that he had decided to follow me all the way in didn't fail to surprise me. Did he care about me... that much? "My husband," I added, and at the introduction, sounding so warm, so real, my cheeks heated up,

  • PREGNANT FOR MY EX’S BILLIONAIRE UNCLE    What are we celebrating?

    Liora "Do you like me?" " Did you buy me a ring and the flowers because you were jealous of the attention that I was getting at the company? For a moment, those words burned at the tip of my tongue, but in the end, they choked back, failing to come out. Inwardly frustrated, I tightly clenched my fists before I weakly leaned back on the seat, utterly defeated. They were just a few words, and yet, I couldn't find the courage to say them! "Are you okay?" Noticing my movements, Soren asked, his brows furrowed in concern, and at that moment, I only wanted to smack my forehead. His eyes were on me, unmoving, and now, I needed to say something, and desperately so, and yet, I didn't know what to say. Just as I was about to pass out from frustration, I caught sight of a familiar street, and my eyes brightened. "Soren!" I called out, my voice soft and light, as a wave of nostalgia washed over me. "Can you pull over?" I asked, my voice almost shaking. "I would love to vis

    Liora."I will drive you." I had just stepped out of the penthouse, my phone in hand, ready to order a ride when a car swerved to where I was, and a vaguely familiar face came into view.I had seen him before. He was Soren's driver. He was the one who drove us from the hospital to the penthouse the

    Liora.“Looks like you are staying, Mrs. Knight?” His face was frustratingly straight as he taunted, adding to the anger burning through me, and looking at him, I had never wanted to kill someone as much as I wanted to kill Soren Knight.But, just like I was unable to cough up thirty million dollar

    Liora. " I want to terminate the contract.." I stated, my tone filled with conviction. I had already cut ties with the Quinns. We no longer had anything to do with each other, and I was also done interning at the Elite Group.. The road ahead was likely going to be rough, but with my sk

    Liora. "Don't keep us all waiting.." Soren reminded, and my eyes were sharpened by hope as I looked at Tavian. He didn't meet my gaze. He shifted uncomfortably under his feet, and watching, deep and unsettling pain gripped my heart. I told myself not to hope. I told myself to expec
