A Trust That Once Broken

Kelly's

POV

Emily, who's standing behind Snow, laughed with amusement as she looked at me and Pierce alternately. "Is this a come back?"

I frowned at Emily. She smirked and fixed her eyes on Pierce. "You're divorcing your wife?"

I gasped. He's married?

Pierce scoffed and growled at her. "I was never married... to her, Emily."

I bit my bottom lip. I was disappointed when I thought he's married. Stupid, Kelly!

Pierce glanced at me worriedly but I didn't look at him. I kept my eyes away from him because I feel like he saw my reaction a while ago. I just indirectly rejected his love but here am I, acting like a stupid girl.

Emily laughed again and that's when Mary stepped out of the kitchen. She was showing how shocked she was while looking at us, particularly at Pierce. She must've recognized him as a CEO of a well-known successful company.

Pierce ignored Emily and walked slowly towards Snow, My daughter was just staring at his face as if memorizing him. I swallowed the lump in my throat as watched them. My heart was beating so loud and fast. I feel like I'm losing my consciousness. "Hi," Pierce greeted Snow nervously. He was kneeling in front of her while she's staring at his face.

I gasped as I watched them. Snow looked exactly like me, so I doubt is Pierce would think that she's his daughter. However, I trust instinct more than facts that could be manipulated.

"I'm Pierce. Your name is... Snow, am I right?"

Snow's eyes widened. "You know me? Are you my mommy's friend?"

Pierce chuckled and nodded. "Yes."

"Nice to meet you, Pierce!" Snow hugged him happily.

I looked away as I felt something in my heart. The corner of my eyes turned hot and I felt like it's about to water. Snow likes it when I introduce a friend to her. She always welcomes them with a gentle hug just like now.

Pierce chuckled and caressed Snow's cheek. "I was with your mommy when she gave birth to you. You were...so small that day. I-I never thought I'd see you again..."

Snow smiled even sweetly. "Are you the prince in Martha's story?"
