I think it's been two hours since I and Jeon parted ways and I am just sitting silently watching people eat and drink. Andre is with some girl and from the looks, they are giving each other I guess she was the one with him when I called him at the wrong time. I just sipped my non-alcoholic drink and roamed my eyes to my surroundings.
Jeon is with his friends talking and drinking with them but he is just nursing his only glass of wine and just talking and laughing with Joon Jae and other friends.
Others are drinking, eating, and dancing, enjoying themselves way too much. I see Ashley approaching Jeon slowly with a sly smirk on her face making me narrow my eyes at her. I know that she is going to ask Jeon to dance with her and I know that he is going to refuse her, that thought brought a smile to my face and I smirked knowing that she is going to get rejected by him.
Like a slow poison, the bitter thoughts start entering my head telling me that he will surely accept her request for the dance and she will trap him with her and I will lose Jeon to her. I hate it when my demons come back with all these negative thoughts. I have locked all the bitter and negative thoughts in the deepest pits but still, they make their way to the front of my head.
My heart started to race against my rib cage beating harder, making me tense with all the tension building up around me suffocating me and choking me. I know Jeon won't accept her request but what if he accepts? What if he is already bored with me? I shake my head to get rid of the thoughts which are tormenting me.
I see her minions and Isabella standing some feet away from Jeon and his friends giggling and encouraging her to approach him. She approaches him and barges into his personal space as she owns him. I clenched my fists so hard to not go there and punch her nose.
I took deep breaths trying to control my anger and just wait and see what happens next. If Jeon accepts to dance with her then I am going to break his nose. My heart and head are at with each other weighing chances and blaming each other.
I calmed my heart and mind because it's not good for both me and my baby, I started counting in my head to stop all the thoughts and just focused on them waiting patiently to see what happens.
She started blabbering cheerily and biting her lip and trying to portray her as this sweet and innocent girl which is far away from it. I am never the person to judge anyone but she practically behaved like a brat with me and now she is behaving like someone who is not.
Jeon's face looks neutral not giving any expression which is making me sweat with anticipation, his lips started moving but I can't figure out what he is telling her, and slowly Ashley's smirk started crumbling and in the place of it, a big frown took place on her forehead and scowl on her lips which made me think that Jeon has rejected her advances.
I laughed out loud at her expression and I should feel bad for it but the way she treated me, she deserves it.
Jeon looked my way and a genuine and bright smile adorned his lips lighting up his whole face which mirrored my face too. In my peripheral vision, I can see Ashley and her friends sending daggers at me for ruining the chance for Ashley. I don't care what they think about me or Jeon, I just care about myself and Jeon.
" I miss you." He mouthed making me blush and my grin deeper. " I miss you too." I mouthed back and saw him looking at me with such intensity which made me bite my lip to stop myself from moaning. He has this effect on me and he knows it.
We were just looking at each other not minding our surroundings, just Him and I losing ourselves in each other. I know for someone this may feel cheesy and corny and if someone has behaved like this in front of me some months ago then I would have puked my guts out there and then but now I am the one being all lovey-dovey with my baby daddy giving hearty eyes to him.
I was so engrossed in Jeon that I didn't give any heed to my surroundings and I shot up from my seat feeling cool substance sliding through the front of the dress and wetting my dress, making it cling to my body. Shock rippled through my body and the anger after listening to the annoying voice.
" Oops! I am Sorry!" I can listen through her words that she is not sorry at all but happy and satisfied to see me struggling with my dress.
" Oh My God! Wait a minute!" I looked at her looking at my stomach with wide eyes making me look properly to my stomach to see my baby bump is invisible because of the wetness of my dress and due to it sticking to my bump.
" Guys! You have to see this! Come here." She called her minions and one of them is Isabella, they were curious as to why her bratty boss is calling them. Shock and surprise passed through them. Isabella has her mouth wide open and disbelief in her eyes. I can see their judgment and disgust through their expressions for me. It started bothering me as they are looking at me like I have committed the biggest crime which no one had done before.
Their reactions gained the attention of the people. I raised my eyes from my bump to the place where Jeon was but he is not there anymore. My eyes started searching through the sea of people for Jeon but I failed at finding him.
Why am I even searching for him? Did I expect him to come and stand up for me? Looking back at the incident which took place this morning I know that Ashley is going to create a big scene here in front of her audience and she has been rejected by Jeon earlier making her think because of me which is so good for me right now.
" She is something, I have thought that she is this woman who has some morals and values but we can't judge someone by their fake looks and behavior." Isabella scoffed, making my head shoot up in her direction. What the hell does she mean by it?
" People always get blinded by the version of someone they create and try to feed it to innocents like us." Ashley snickered and her minions followed her. My words got stuck in my throat and the room started to get closed in on me.
I took a deep breath and started, " Don't you think you are both crossing your lines?" I asked, looking both in the eyes not showing them any weakness.
" Woah! I am getting scared, look! I am shaking." Ashley mocked me, getting into my personal space to which I took a step backward.
" Shut up! We are not in high school and you are not the Queen bees. So stop behaving like one." I gritted out, anger coming through my every pore and I just wanted to punch anyone and anything.
" Ahan! And I can't even imagine how were you when you were in high school w***ing around the school." Ashley said with a smirk, making me gasp at her words. She is crossing her limits now and I can't even stop myself from hitting her if she utters trash about me.
" Shut Up!" I roared, making everyone silent but Ashley just smirked, took steps towards me, and placed her hand on my bump looking into my eyes uttering the words which made my blood run cold in my body.
" Do you even know the father of the baby? Or you forget who Impregnated you through the long list of your men!" This is it, this is the last straw to my patience and kindness. No one can stop me from breaking her nose and drilling some sense into her thick head. I can hear nasty things about me but if someone comes for my child then I can't hold back from showing them what I can do to you for coming on to my child. I have never been filled with this much rage. My motherly instincts kicked in making me not see any rationality. She will surely regret saying those words about my child.
" Look at you! Getting angry for hearing the truth about yourself and your child." Isabella said with disgust written all over her face. What the hell have I ever done to them? I was professional with her throughout our meetings and now she is treating me like this in front of everyone just because a man rejected her cousin who is interested in me.
" I don't want to create a scene here Isabella, so please you people should stop talking about things that you know nothing about," I said, controlling myself and I hope they just go away from here. I just want to leave their presence, they are too negative for me and my baby.
I saw Jeon at the entrance entering the hall with his friends. Confusion is written all over his face because the music is stopped and everyone is gathered around me and them. He looked in my direction with worry and concern and started taking steps towards me but I nodded my head telling him to not come but he didn't stop instead he increased his pace making my eyes go wide but I nodded my head again and glared at him which worked because he stilled in his steps clenching his jaw hard with anger.
I know he wants to stand up for me but I don't want him to face all the criticism because of me. He is a celebrity and anything about him will circulate in the news and can tarnish his image. I am capable of fighting my wars.
