Enslaved By The CEO

Lucifer picks me up almost every night. I can’t understand him … he’s mad at me but he’s here and he’s always following me.

“H-You don’t have to pick me up–”

“You’re pregnant. It’s my responsibility to make you safe, especially the baby. also, it’s not good for you to work at night so I suggest you should stop working. ”

I averted my eyes from him and bit my lip.

“I can’t stop working.”

“Let me provide you then. While you are pregnant, I will provide what you need. just tell me what you want. “He said and started driving.

I bit my lip again and walked past the houses we passed.

“It’s OK-”

“Can you stop biting your lip?” None of my own looked at him.

“H-Ha?”

“Stop biting your lips, Larayou’re giving me a boner. ”

My cheeks blushed profusely at the last thing he said.

“S-Sorry …”

“Tomorrow, I don’t want to see you working again. Understood?” My eyes widened at what he said. He’s just kidding, isn’t he?

“Lucifer, you can’t–”

“Whether you like it or not, you won’t work again. Period.” He said seriously with mixed tone of voice.

“I can’t be without a job Lucifer. I have to buy things for myself. I don’t want to depend on you if I can still work. I can still go, I’ll be careful– ”

“No buts, Lara.” Its language is cold.

I just sighed and didn’t say a word.

Honestly, I don’t really want to depend on him. I don’t want him to think I’m using our future child for my own benefit. and one more thing, I know he just said that for our son. He only knew as a child. He didn’t want to hurt the baby. Because she wouldn’t be like this to me if I wasn’t pregnant – wait!

My eyes widened with realize.

“T-Do you accept that your child is the one I’m pregnant with?” None of my own question to him.

He raised an eyebrow at me. “You said that it’s mine. You keep on saying that I’m the father of that child, then I assume it’s really true. Pero, baka pa rin ako ang ama n’yan. Maybe it’s your fiancé or me. “He shrugged.

“Maybe you brought us together so you don’t know who the father really is. Anyways, we’ll also know the truth when the child comes out.” The corner of its lip rose.

“I’m not that kind of girl, Lucifer–”

“Really?” he grinned and shook his head.

My eyes warmed and I looked away from him.

When my tears flowed, I quickly wiped them away.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“By the way, mom is inviting you tomorrow. It’s dad’s birthday and she wants you to come.” It broke into silence.

I immediately shook my head in sudden denial.

“H-Don’t. It’s embarrassing–”

“Good then …” My chest pain increased at what he said.

“Fiona will be there and I’m sure she will be mad at you. She knows that you’re pregnant.”

Is there nothing more painful here? because it looks like it’s really the most painful.

“I’m s-sorry. Maybe me and the baby will be the cause of your fight. I’ll ruin your relationship …”

“Fiona and I are engaged, Lara. I hope that you won’t be a hindrance to our relationship.” My tears kept falling.

“L-Lucifer … is there really no hope? Don’t you really love me anymore?” Suddenly I asked him.

He stopped the car and looked at me intently.

“Lucifer, d-just because of a delusion. Just because you can’t hear the truth, we’re broken. We lost that relationship. I thought … I thought you loved me? That you can’t afford to lose me in your life? Lucifer also lasted a few years of our love– ”

“Stop!” He shouted.

“Just listen to me Lucifer. Listen to the truth. The truth! Nothing happened to Tristan and me. they just broke us! They just separated us and got married to– ”

“I said stop, Lara!” I was stunned when it shouted again.

My face is now full of tears. Here and begging him again.

“I don’t love you anymore, Lara.. I’m just here beside you because of the baby. Just the baby. “I wiped my tears from my cheeks.

“One day, you will regret all this Lucifer. You will regret not listening to me. You will regret that you did not accept me again! Remember that Lucifer.” opened the car door and hurried out.

“Lara–” I slammed it shut and immediately entered my apartment.

While lying in bed I decided I was going to Lucifer’s daddy’s birthday tomorrow. I will make them look especially to Fiona that I am not weak. I could fight and I will fight my love for Lucifer. Even in the end, I knew I was losing.

“What’s your name, ma’am?” The man at the entrance of the Villaflores’ house asked.

“Lara Velle Silva.” My answer. he looked at the list and when he saw my name among the guests, he immediately let me in.

I am wearing a yellow dress. I also applied a little make-up. It’s a good thing my baby bump isn’t as obvious as I’m wearing.

I was carrying a box as a gift to Tito Fernando. When I saw him, I immediately greeted him and gave him what I was carrying.

“Happy Birthday Tito!” I greeted and hugged.

“Thank you for coming, hija–”

“Lara, hija!” Tita Luci groaned and hugged me too.

“Hello Tita ! I’m glad you invited me and you didn’t forget me. “I joked and laughed.

“Of course! We won’t forget you hija. Come here …” Tita pulled me towards a long table where their family was sitting. Lucifer and I looked at each other but I just avoided looking at him and sat down with them.

I saw Fiona look bad at me as she sat next to Lucifer.

Everyone was having a good time. I was just quietly eating when suddenly something came and my eyes widened.

“Tristan!” Tito calls Tristan.

“Happy Birthday Tito!” He said he gave a gift at the same time.

“Thank you son! Come here, join us. Sit beside Lara. I know that you know her.” Turan ni Tito. Tristan turned his gaze to me and his smile widened.

Since no one was sitting in the chair next to me Tristan sat there.

“Hi! Glad to see you here!” He said I was smiling.

“Me too. How are you?” as people started talking again it was as if Tristan and I had our own world.

“I’m fine. Sorry, I haven’t visited you in a few weeks. I was busy. Anyways, how are you and the …” He looked at my stomach.

“We’re okay! No one will buy a saint for us.” I said we laughed together.

“Don’t worry, I’ll visit you one of these days. I’ll bring you a sack of santol.” He was joking.

“I expect that ah!” It also ate while we continued to talk. came to the tree to silence everyone for Tito’s family’s birthday messages to him.

Tita spoke first which made everyone cry. She’s so sweet and loving wife, indeed. Its children followed, and Lucifer was last. I almost never listened to Lucifer and whispered to Tristan. When it was over, everyone went back to talking and drinking. Tristan and I decided to go to the swimming pool where no one was.

I’m a little uncomfortable with the crowd. I couldn’t seem to breathe so Tristan brought me here to freshen up.

“Are you fine now?” He asked.

I nodded in response.

“Thank you Tristan.”

We were silent for a moment when he suddenly asked.

“How does it make you feel to see the man you love with the others he loves?” Its question that stopped me.

“As usual, it hurts. You? How does it feel to see the one you love–”

“You know that I don’t love her anymore. I moved on.” He laughed that I just laughed too.

“Maybe you have someone else already? Yiee!” I poked the side of it.

“Lara, stop it!” He laughed.

“You’re cute Tristan–”

“What are you two doing here?” We were both stunned by someone speaking behind us.

“L-Lucifer–”

“My parents are looking for you. You’re just here and flirting. You really didn’t even miss my daddy’s birthday? Everywhere you flirt. “Lucifer seriously accused the two of us before turning around and leaving.
