Betrayed by Husband Divorced when Pregnant (Kelly and Pierce) novel Chapter 50

Chapter 50: Chapter 50 Drive Him Away

Kelly’s POV

I was standing in front of the full length mirror while looking at myself when Klay knocked on my bedroom. I gave him my address to pick me up for the charity gala tonight.

When he entered, our gazes met through the mirror. I smiled at him as he looked at me with his usual serious face. I’m wearing a black gown and although my baby bump is now obvious, I could still proudly say that the shape of my body is perfect for the dress.

Klay slowly walked towards me and stopped behind me. For some reason, I found myself unable to take my eyes off of him through the mirror. He’s wearing a black suit while his hair is waxed and brushed backwards. He looked so dashing and I can’t help but to silently praise his looks.

Without saying anything, Klay put a beautiful necklace on my neck. The elegance of the necklace complimented my dress perfectly. My hair that was curled to the tips reached my waist as the color of my skin stood out from the color of my dress.

“You look perfect,” Klay whispered, which made me shiver as I felt his warm breath against the back of my ear.

When I looked at him through the mirror again, my eyes accidentally noticed his reddish lips, reminding me of the kisses we shared before. He had tasted me. He had touched me. But he never did something out of the line even after all the intimate moments we shared. I couldn’t help but to admire how he restrained his desire even when he clearly told me about his feelings.

How did I get this attracted to him? When did it start? And most of all, why?

I cursed myself when I felt an electricity all over my body after his finger accidentally brushed against my naked shoulder.

“Are you ready?” He whispered as he walked in front of me and looked at my face.

To hide the silly thoughts lingering in my mind, I smiled at him and nodded. He picked up my pouch and handed it to me before he offered his arm to me. I smiled again before wrapping my arm on his arm. I guess I just have to get used to having him by my side. Afterall, he’s my step brother.

The night was young and everyone was busy with their own world when we reached the event hall. There were media people everywhere and they immediately saw us.

“Mr. Carver, who is your date?”

“Mr. Carver, is she your girlfriend?”

“Are you Miss Kelly Monroe? The previous Vice President of the ADE company?”

“Miss Kelly Monroe, there were photos of you and Mr. Anderson spreading online. Are you two in a secret relationship?” ƒrēewebnovel.com

Photos? I don’t know what they’re talking about so I looked at Klay. His face was blank as he looked at the reporters around us.

“What photos are they talking about, Klay?” I asked, whispering to Klay.

Klay was about to answer when another pair came and stood beside us. I suddenly felt suffocated after I met Pierce’s eyes. He looked shocked after seeing me here and even more shocked after he recognized the person beside me. His eyes showed a hint of anger, but I ignored him.

“Mr. Anderson, what can you say about the photos of you and Miss Monroe spreading online? Are they real?”

I swallowed hard and slowly looked his way again. My heart skipped a beat after I saw him staring straight into my eyes.

“No. None of those were real,” he answered without taking his eyes off of me. I couldn’t help but to feel bitter. He’s saying that right after he confessed that he’s in love with me. I already let him go, but I couldn’t help but feel the bitterness because of what he said.

How long are you going to play with my feelings, Pierce?
