Bestfriend Divorced Me When I Carried His Baby (Kelly and Pierce)

Few But True Kelly's POV

The anonymous message got me thinking hard about the sender of the message. Even before all this mess started, there was only one person who really helped me during the critical moments in my life. She made me realize what was wrong. She silently cared. She secretly helped. I can only think of one person who would send me such a message.

While unpacking, I ordered some food for lunch. I waited for only 15 minutes before someone rang the doorbell. The man, wearing a delivery uniform and carrying the food I ordered, shocked me. I didn't know. I'd see him again and I can see that he's also shocked after recognizing me.

"M-Miss Kelly..."

I looked outside to check if someone saw him. When saw no one, I grabbed his arm and immediately locked the door behind him.

"Luke!"

He blinked as he stared at my face.

"Mommy, hungry!" Snow came running to me hugging her doll.

Luke turned to her and his eyes widened in shock.

"Is this the food I ordered?" I asked, pointing at the paper bag he's carrying.

"Y-Yes, miss."

I nodded and grabbed the paper bag from him, "Wait here, I need to talk to you."

I carried Snow and brought her to the kitchen. I prepared her lunch and cupped her cheeks.

"Eat here, baby. I'll just pay for our food, okay?"

When I went back to the living area, Luke was roaming his eyes around. When our eyes met, he immediately looked down.

.ou're not working for the Andersons anymore?" I asked and sat on the couch.

He nodded and sat across from me. "I resigned four years ago, miss."

"Are you still in contact with them?"

He shook his head, still not looking at my face. "No, miss."

I took a deep sigh and rested my back on the couch. "Im hiding behind a fake identity, Luke. If you're still on my side, you won't tell anyone you saw here."

He lifted his face and finally looked into my eyes. "I swore my loyalty to you a long time ago, Miss Kelly. Even if someone threatens me with a knife against my heck, I would never betray you."

I smiled and slowly nodded. "Thank you, Luke."

He bowed his head and slowly, but simply turned to the kitchen where I brought Snow. He's curious. He must've remembered the time I asked him to drive me to the hospital.

took a deep sigh. "She's my daughter."

He looked at me with parted lips. "She's..."

I nodded. "Pierce's daughter."

He cleared his throat and nodded. "She...looks exactly like you, miss Kelly."

"I'm thankful she is."

"Mr. Anderson was devastated until now. Before I resigned I heard he'll continue searching for you although he has a hunch about who burned down his secret villa."

My forehead creased. "Burned down?"

"You...didn't know? So, you weren't abducted by Klay Carver?"

That made me so curious. So something happened after I left that house? Someone burned it down? Escaping that night was the right decision. If I didn't think of leaving, we would've been burned helplessly inside that house.

I shifted my weight and stared at Luke's eyes. "You said you swore your loyalty to me. If you're still on my side, please help me."

He was quick to nod. Determination was visible in his eyes. "I'm more than willing to help you, Miss Kelly.

I nodded again. "First. tell me everything you know, Luke. Don't leave a single information behind."

Luke didn't disappoint me. He told me everything he knows and I saw sincerity in his eyes. Because of that, I asked him to guard my daughter whenever I'm at work. Besides, I can't think of anyone to trust for now other than him. I have already proven Luke's loyalty and I hope he really remained loyal as before.

"We were hired to organize an auction event next week. This event will have a lot of rich people, so Miss Young, I'm counting on you to treat these VIP guests well. They're also our potential sponsor."

I nodded. "I will do my best, ma'am."

The auction that will happen next week might ruin my plan. If I ran into Klay or Pierce on that event, something might change again. I don't want that to happen but avoiding it shouldn't be a trade for my career.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

jent my time working and I was right. When I checked the list of VIP guests at the auction event, I saw Pierce's and Klay's names on the list.

"Uncle!" I heard Snow's scream as soon as I entered the apartment. I was worried but when I reached the living area, I saw Snow and Luke playing on the carpet.

Luke was lying on the carpet and Snow was sitting on his stomach. She was laughing so hard as tuke kept moving his stomach like a wave.

Snow is a bubbly girl who would play with everyone I introduced to her as a friend. She's easy to talk to. She's fun to be with and definitely a smart kid. Honestly, her attitude mirrors her dad's. Pierce looked like a cold person at first impression, but when you get to know him, you'd see how soft he is inside. That's exactly what Snow is.

"Captain Yuki, there's a big wave coming. What should we do?"

I pressed my lips together, stopping my laugh after I heard Luke say those words. I'm so used to seeing him so serious. So looking at him now, it looks awkward.

My phone vibrated continuously, indicating an incoming call. When I looked at the screen, I immediately went to the kitchen and answered the call. "Hello?"

Miss Monroe, the papers you asked for are ready. I will email it to you right away but I need to confirm 313

something.]

I chewed my bottom lip and nodded. "Yes, attorney. What is it?"

[You already know the current situation of your father's assets, right? I'm curious about what you're planning to do. To think that you disappeared without a trace and now you're back, I'm worried rage is taking the best of you. Although this is the right thing to do, I can't help but to worry. I've been your father's lawyer and I treat you like my own daughter. I don't want you to end up like your father.]

I pressed my palms on the kitchen counter and looked down. Taking a deep sigh, I slowly lifted my again with my eyes sharp and cold.

face

"I'm enraged, but I know what I'm doing, attorney. It's time for me to take everything back. I don't care if dad's assets have dropped to cents. All I want is to make them taste their own medicine."

I heard him sigh. There was relief in it. [Okay. I'll email the documents to you. Just please, Kelly, win this battle. I kept my mouth shut for a long time, but my conscience couldn't take it anymore. I don't care what you would do to your stepmother and stepbrother. All I want is justice for a dear friend of mine.]

I looked at Luke and Snow still playing in the living area after I ended the call.

A few years ago, I thought I was alone. I thought after losing Pierce, I'm all alone. But I was wrong. There are people who are still on my side. They're only a few but I know they are true.

Under The Moonlight... There Was Your

Kelly's POV

"So, dad's remaining asset was just the company," I said while reading the documents my dad's lawyer sent me. I'm talking to him through my computer and he explained everything I can do to get the company back.

"Yes, Kelly. While the houses owned by your father were already sold to different people. The only house. left was the one that's under your third stepmother's name. You can only claim it if you buy it from her." I nodded and lifted my face, looking at the screen, "Can I acquire some shares to get the company back without revealing my identity? Will it cause a problem?"

"I don't think that would cause a problem. As long as you are the legal owner of the share."

"Then, I'll start buying shares until I acquire the highest. It would put me in the highest position in the company.

"That's a smart move, Kelly. But will you be able to do it secretly? Klay is the current President of the company. You know him. He's cunning and deadly smart."

I took a deep sigh. "I just have to outsmart him, attorney.

Slowly, I turned to Luke who's sitting on the couch while drinking juice and scrolling through his phone. Snow fell asleep while he's reading her a story. Today is the weekend, so I don't have work. Meanwhile, Luke seemed to grow fond of Snow, spending his weekend here even when he's here everyday looking after Snow whenever I'm at work.

My phone beeped. I received a text from the same number who sent me an anonymous message.

'I'm pretty sure I got the right number. Ignoring me, eh?"

I took a deep sigh and looked at the screen again. "Thanks, attorney. I'll contact you again if I need something

"Anytime, Kelly. Bye!"

1st nodded before closing my computer. I walked towards the living area and looked at Snow who's peacefully sleeping on the couch.

Luke pulled himself up and fixed his shirt. "I gotta leave now, Miss Kelly."

I nodded and smiled at him. "Thanks, Luke."

He stared at me. 1 can do anything if you need my help, Miss."

Actually, I thought of something he can do to help but Klay might find out it's a trap, so I need to find another person to do it.

I shook my head and tapped his shoulders. "I can only trust you when it comes to my daughter, Luke. You just have to keep her safe all the time. That is the greatest help I could ever need."

"Then, I will make sure that no harm can ever come her way."

I walked him to the door. I was about to close the door when he disappeared from my sight when Mary suddenly popped up out of nowhere with a curious look.

"You have a boyfriend?" She asked with a shocked
