Ring.. Ring.. Ring..

Marcus ignored Mother Huang phone calls. After few repeating calls, Marcus pickup his mobile.

"Mom, what's up? I'm very busy here." Marcus said with stern voice.

"Lillian have been out for few hours now. Its almost dinner times and she still haven't come back." Mother Huang said. "Where did she go. She's pregnant. Its dangerous for her to go out alone. Who gave her the authority to go out." Marcus asked angrily.

"I am. She said she wanted get something from her Uncle's house so I get the driver to drop her off. But until now, she's not back yet." mother Huang replied.

"Maybe she stayed back there tonight." Marcus said.

Mother Huang voiced, "I'm feeling uneasy in my heart that why I called you. Can you check on her later at in-law's place.

"Ok... I drop by later." Marcus hang up and continue on his works. The day was quickly passed. Marcus looked to the sky outside getting darker and wondering what Lillian was doing at her uncle place.

He hurriedly browse through his phone and found her number, took in a deep breath and courageously dialed that number.. "Du, du, du..."

The call was connected, however, the other party did not pick up the phone.. "Sorry, the number you have dialed is not available. Please try again later..." Listening to the machine generated voice, his heart almost leaped to his throat.

Marcus refused to give up and continued calling. However, after a few tries, the machine still generated the same messages.. "Sorry, the number dialed is not available....."

"Damned.." Marcus was speechlessly looking at the caller's name and rejected the calls.

When he left yesterday, he had predicted that Lillian would call him again to coaxed him likes old times. However, he did not expect that she would turn off her phone.

They had fights and fall out yesterday and just today, he shamelessly called her just because she carry his child. What have they long been planning to do in the future? Marcus thoughts to himself. How long can their relationsh.i.p.s last?

Marcus tried calling a few more times. Only after hearing the same machine generated voice did he helplessly stop.

When he thought of himself personally ignoring and chasing away the person who was carrying his child, he felt extremely remorseful and wretched. He sat there in a daze for quite some times.

After smiling for a while, Marcus finally stopped the silly giggle. Once again, he deeply breathed in. Next, he gently tugged on his hair. After tidying up his messy hair, he opened his phone and dialled his mother's number.

Once the call was picked up, he calmly said, "Mom, it's me. I'm going to Uncle Tang's house to bring her back. You guys starts dinner without us. We will be back soon." Marcus told her mom.

Once, Marcus placed all the important doc.u.ments inside his briefcase, he stood up and walked out of his office. As for hiss assistant, Vince stood at the same spot and gave his boss a doubtful glance. He felt that there was something different about his boss. Marcus patted his assistant's shoulder, "I'm going off now. You should also go home and rest."

"En, okay." Replied Vince. Both headed out of the company.

On the other side of the world.. in the luxurious apartment.

Her gaze was still directed outside of the window and as time passed, she would soon forget about him. Tears pricked at her eyes once recalled their memories but she would blink them back once in a while. Nonetheless, she still was not able to stop the tears from falling from her eyes. In addition, the survival of an important person in her life would sadden her too much. Damn it. Why wasn't she able to forget him?

"Let's eat." Feng Ye brought out the final 2+1 dishes plus soup he cooked and turned to get Lillian to sit down at the dining table.

"Little sis, have some of this steamed fish. It is very fresh and delicious." Lillian accepted the food that Feng Ye passed her and ate. Her lips then curled into a polite smile.

"Thank you bro.. I'm sorry to caused you the troubles too." Lillian paused, staring at his cousin bro, her hand over her heart and tears started pooling again. They are her only family now.

Feng Ye drew a tissue and wiped her swollen eyes. He looked down at the haggard face woman and said. "Are you going to continue be like this? Lillian, I know you would not be able to forget him for a short time but that is okay. I'm sure that you would get over it soon, things will get better for you and your baby. You will even more happier staying with us, even Xiyan and Xixi will be thrilled. Just stay as long as you want."

She smiled, then suddenly placed her hand on her belly. Her 'little Marcus's baby' was growing within it, getting bigger and bigger each day.

Feng Ye's put his hand out, touched her big belly and let out sigh.. "Everythings will get better little one. Once you're out into this world.. I promise you, uncle and your two aunties here are gonna love and pamper you like crazy."
