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

Sly As A Fox

Kelly's POV

"What's the problem?" I coldly asked Hayley after I reached the studio. She's now panicking. Her assistant called me saying there's a problem involving

Lexi, our new model and our professional make-up artist.

She swallowed hard. "Miss Monroe, Miss Lexi doesn't want to do the photoshoot today. She had an argument with our make-up artist and she insisted on finding a new one."

I sucked my breath and started massaging the bridge of my nose. I saw Lexi sitting comfortably with a frown on her face.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Pierce and I were in the middle of divorce proceedings, but cutting the bond between us wasn't as easy as it could have been, especially when we shared valued families and company.

Still, working with Lexi was the last thing I wanted. I really wanted to tear the face of that evil witch, but work wasn't child's play. I'd got a whole bunch of employees under me waiting for their paychecks, so I'd got to stay professional.

Without further ado, I walked towards Lexi and stood in front of her. She lifted her face and looked at me with disgust. Her eyes were already judging me right after she saw me standing in front of her

"You cannot throw a fit here and do whatever you want, Lexi."

She shot an eyebrow up and slowly crossed her legs. She shooed her personal assistant and smirked at me. "Hmm? Acting like a bitch? I see you're mad because your best friend slash husband is going crazy over me again."

I tried so hard to ignore what she said. I took a deep breath and looked her in the eyes. "Act like a professional, Lexi."

"I am professional, Kelly. I just don't like your stupid make-up artist."

shook my head and turned my back on her. I was about to leave when she spoke again... "Pierce knows this, you know? He allowed me to do whatever I wanted."

Annoyed, I faced her again. "What did you say?"

She faked a smile and turned her back. I gritted my teeth as she walked towards the dressing room.

My blood was boiling in anger when I went back to the company. I went straight to Pierce's office and saw him sitting on his swivel chair while massaging his temple. I slammed the door but he didn't lift his face. He took a deep breath and spoke. "What is it, Kelly?" He knew that I was the one who came?

Nevermind! I'm not here for that anyway.

I marched in front of his table and pressed my palms against the table, bending forward a little.

"Lexi is acting like a bitch during the photoshoot, Pierce. She had an argument

with our make-up artist."

He slowly lifted his face and I was taken aback when I realized how close our faces are. I swallowed hard and withdrew my position. I stood in front of him as I felt my heart racing. Damn it! "Not now, Kels. My head is aching."

My forehead creased. "My head is also aching, Pierce. Your bitch of a woman is trying to provoke me."

"Kelly, please! I already have much on my plate. Dad is threatening to kick me out of my position in the company and Grams is still ignoring me. And will your stop calling Lexi names? Please!"

I balled my fists as I stared down at him. He was looking at my face with frustration and anger but his expression immediately softened when he seemed to realize what he said.

He pulled himself up and walked towards me. I moved away when he attempted to touch my arm.

He sighed. "I'm sorry for raising my voice. I'm just...really stressed today. We just signed the divorce papers and Dad's already threatening. And Grams. Your know her. She won't talk to me ever again once she learns that our divorce is already in process." I looked away and sucked my breath. He's right, that's a big problem. However, his so-called first love is spreading darkness in the studio. I can't believe he allowed this to happen.

"I'll talk to Lexi again. I agreed to work with her on her terms because her popularity would be a great help to us. Don't worry about her."

I turned my back and walked towards the door. Before I opened it, I spoke again.... "I'm gonna get my things later. I will also brine Luke with me since he's my driver. He will be working for me starting today."

"Kels, don't add more salt to the wound. I'm still trying to figure out how to tell my family. Don't make a move that would push me to the cliff."

Annoyed, I faced him. "The divorce is in process, Pierce. Don't you think it's too shameless for me to stay in your house?"

"Kels..." His eyes were hooded and he looked sick.

I just shook my head and turned my back on him. I'm planning to completely exit his life and cut all my connections with him but when I opened the

door, I felt like my heart almost stopped beating. Standing in front of me was Pierce's younger sister. She was standing frozen behind the door and when she looked at me, tears cascaded down her cheeks. "Y-You're leaving my brother?"

I sucked my breath. "Phoebe..."

She's just 16 years old and she's very close to me. She's also like my younger sister and I treasure her too.

She sobbed and turned her back. I was so shocked when she suddenly ran away. Pierce appeared behind me and looked at me with a worried face.

"Why is she here? She should be at school," Pierce asked.

I shook my head. "I don't know!"

"Damn it!" He cursed and started running. I closed the door of his office and followed him. I want to run too but that would be dangerous for my baby.

When I reached the entrance of the building, I talked to the guard and he immediately told me where Phoebe went.

kept on looking around as I walked around the vicinity. I'm worried about Phoebe. She's just a girl but I hurt her top. I can't believe she would hear that. Damn! I shouldn't have said that.

"Phoebe!" I called as I looked at everyone on the street.

My eyes widened when I spotted her. She's running and Pierce is after her. My eyes

widened even more when I saw a car approaching when Phoebe crossed

the street.

"PHOEBE!" I screamed and ran as Pierce ran after her too.

My heart almost stopped beating when I thought the car would hit Pierce whot hugged Phoebe. I screamed in fear and was almost breathless when the car stopped on time. The driver cursed Pierce and he just ignored him while checking on his sister. I walked towards them with shaking hands. Pierce brought Phoebe to the sidewalk and I immediately squatted in front of her.

"Phoebe, why did you do that? That's so dangerous."

She sobbed and shook her head. She pushed her brother who was trying to hold her in place.

"You are leaving my brother. You two are liars. You told me you will never leave, each other. You lied to me. You lied to us! You said you were in love!"

I looked down and bit my bottom lip. I don't know what to say. I can't even look. at Phoebe.

Pierce called their family driver. When the car came, Phoebe immediately ran to the car, still crying and angry. I stood on the sidewalk watching the car leave. and disappear from my sight. Pierce stood back beside me and looked at me. From the corner of my eyes, I saw h "Kels..." He seemed to want to say something to me but my blood boiled in anger again when I heard that familiar annoying voice.

"Mr. Anderson, I was just about to go to your office." Lexi got out of her car and smiled at us. A fake smile to me.

Tss! I turned my back and walked out without any interest in hearing her Pierce. Damn, I won't stay in this hell long. I hope that bitch falls into a

manhole soon.
