“Looking for a gift for your son?”Belle nodded at him. Liam really liked the gift that Maxwell had picked for him before. And right now, she could really use a friend.“This time, I'm buying for two boys.”“Oh, I didn't know you had two kids!”She didn't deny it because it was true. She has two kids. Even if she isn't the biological mom of Elias, he sees that child as hers.It pains her to think that Elias probably misses Belle so much right now. He wanted to visit Elias so badly but Jack brought him on a trip, a long vacation and they haven’t come back yet.“Do you really help every customer like this? Your manager must be very proud.”Maxwell laughed at her comment. “I try to be as hands on as possible. This may simply be a passion project, but it's a very rewarding one.”“One of your passion projects? You mean… you own this place?” She's so surprised that she whispered the last part.“I’m not sure if I told you that last time but, yeah. I do.” Maxwell had that look of pride on his

“Did you cook this food?”She couldn't consider herself a great cook considering that the best that she could do with her ability are two techniques: frying and reheating. After Nikolai asked her that question, she was suddenly wondering if recipes of food she can ‘possibly’ cook have gone together with her memory.“You're kidding, right?” She prayed silently in her head. Hopefully, no expectations ruined.But she could finally breathe when Nikolai’s smile showed despite his restraints. “Yes. When we lived in New Zealand, we always had takeouts.”“You scared me! I thought part of my amnesia is forgetting those recipes I never learned to cook.”Contrary to her worries, there was a warm smile on Nikolai’s face. It was simply contagious. That’s the thing with Nikolai. She couldn’t be firm with her decision to be anything but lovers with him. He smiles at her one time and she goes weak in the knees.Belle looked away and st

Because of her lack of memory, Belle had to learn to rely on her instincts. She wasn't always right, but something inside her tells her that this Evelyn woman cannot be trusted.She was acting timid, but confident enough to show herself inside the house. The least he could do was knock at the door. These security people should have also informed her.“Okay. She's gone. You can stop shooting those laser eyes.” Bonnie held her back.She lost track of time, observing until the woman was out of sight. “I'm not shooting laser eyes.”“Shooting daggers then? Either way, you were staring to kill, Belle.” Her friend started teasing her. “I don't blame you, don't worry. I was having my little observatory moment here as well.”She tried to be subtle and not quick to judge. Mission failed for both, apparently. Stopping the ‘I’m not the least bothered by that woman’, her forehead furrowed in all these negative emotions, she couldn't quite figure out what direction was heading to.“I don't like her

It was completely unfair how Nikolai dropped those words and then left. Just like that. ‘Classic Nikolai.’ She thought. Leaving her with her raging imagination again. What makes her even crazier is getting that idea and knowing that it happened. ‘Am I supposed to seat here all day thinking about how I literally fucked him? Fuck him and all the ways I could imagine fucking him.’ “Where's Daddy, Mommy?” “Uhm,” Setting all these thoughts aside to focus on the present. Besides, it's much more suitable to think of it later at night. “Daddy has to go to work, but you can have breakfast with Mommy!” *** As big as their mansion, it was so well-maintained that there was no other thing to do. This must be why some rich people get into trouble. They have all the time to think about… stuff. It's not fair that she'd look at a blooming rose and start to freaking think about sex! Everything goe

First day at her job. She hasn’t even officially started yet, and one of the most important secrets that she would like to keep a secret is already known. Belle was too stunned to react to this random stranger she didn't recognize.“Do we know each other?”“I know you.”“I don’t know you,” Belle replied. She wanted to sound convincing and not the least bothered. Even to her own ears, she didn’t sound like it. She wasn’t doing anything wrong, but she didn’t want to experience the possible effects of the other employee knowing that she’s married to Nikolai.The guy simply nodded. Belle doesn’t know if she should be relieved that he didn’t look interested. Even then, what’s the point of the conversation they are having? He could have simply pretended he doesn’t know her and he doesn’t care. Yet, he stirred the pot with unclear intentions.“You don’t have to worry. I usually mind my own business. It was simply… interesting. Finding you here when you can be somewhere else, but as I said, I
