Bestfriend Divorced Me When I Carried His Baby by TheBlues

A Date? Kelly's POV

"You have a meeting with the model we want to hire for our products, Miss Kelly. After that, you have a meeting with the design team."

I nodded at Yara while we're walking towards my office. I just finished my second meeting for today and I'm already tired. This day would drain all of my energy. This is harder than I expected. Of course, I know how the business industry works but I've been resting for so long that going back to being an executive is tiring. I need to adjust to my new life and I know it won't be easy.

I sat on my swivel chair, the same time my phone rang. I answered the call. "Hello, Emily.

[I'm taking Snow on a lunch date.]

I smiled, "Sure."

[But please...tell her nanny that I don't have a budget for her. Why tag along?]

I chuckled. "Let her be, Emily. Ana will take good care of her-*

[No, thanks! Just call her now because I left her in your condo. I'm in the car with Snow. Hey, love, say hello to mommy...]

I smiled even more after I heard my daughter's voice. I'm glad I have someone I can trust when it comes. to taking care of Snow. At least I won't be that worried whenever I'm at work. I can work properly because of my newly found friends

My whole day was very busy. After my last meeting for today, I went back to my office again, exhausted. It was already 5 PM and I already informed Ana that I'm coming home late tonight. I was about to go straight to my swivel chair when I saw someone sitting on the couch and he's watching me while I'm stretching my arms and neck.

My lips parted as I stood before his eyes awkwardly. When he chuckled, I felt my cheeks burn.

He pulled himself up and folded the sleeves of his polo. "You're exhausted. Glad I came here to bring you some food. I bet you're starving."

I cleared my throat and bit my lower lip. I walked towards him while he's preparing the food he brought for me.

"Why are you here, Pierce?"

He glanced at me and smiled again, "Mom cooked me food and I thought of bringing it here so we could eat together. I couldn't eat them all. It's too much."

I glanced at the food in the food container. It looks very delicious and I admit I missed his mom's cooking

"So..." He trailed and tilted his head. "Do you....wanna eat with me? It's just a...friendly dinner."

I smiled at him and nodded. "Yeah. Sure."

Pressing my lips together, I sat on the couch across from him. He looked nervous while preparing our food and I don't know why he's the one who's nervous when I'm actually the one who should be because I'm hiding something..

He probably thought I wouldn't agree, but I'm not really heartless when it comes to him. After all these years, I realize that even when I got mad at him, I couldn't blame him because he didn't tell me to love

him. He didn't know that I have feelings for him even before we got married and it intensified after he showed me how he is as a husband. He was caring. He was loving. He never gave me mixed signals because from the very beginning, he made it clear to me that I was just a best friend in his eyes...I just hoped. I dreamed... of something I thought beyond my Imagination but seeing him now. His sincerity, the effort, the worry and care... I don't know if I can still last, ignoring his feelings when I can see him still trying to pursue us. I was beyond broken and I don't wanna trust easily again, but I also know that running away won't do me any good. I have to face the truth. I have to face my feelings. Soon.

""Let's eat?"

I nodded at him. He was actually the one who put food on my plate before he handed it to me. I accepted it while looking at his face.

He looked at me as we started eating, "You're very busy. How's your company?"

I shrugged my shoulders and sighed. "Tiring."

He smiled. "You'll get used to it again."

Definitely because I know his heart could feel their strong connection even when his mind believed that she's Klay's daughter. He licked his lips and looked down. "I know this is too much to ask.
