Chapter 30 Stop It!
"What does that mean? Why does she want to talk to me about Aiden? Does she know?" Kelsey was nervous again.
The thirty-three year old woman now couldn't calm down after receiving the message from Weylin Malachy whom she really didn't want to meet.
"I may have misread," Kelsey muttered, trying to convince herself.
Slowly, Kelsey picked up her fallen cellphone back. Slowly, she opened the contents of the message from the foreign number that was not stored on her cell phone. She immediately limp.
"Totally from Weylin. What should I do now? He seems suspicious. How about this?"
Frightened, Kelsey then called her two best friends at the same time. In just a few seconds, the call was immediately picked up by Angel and also Selena.
"Sel, it's bad. Angel, I'm dizzy," Kelsey said directly.
Angel, who was seen in the video call wearing a mask, immediately replied, "Why are you dizzy, baby?"
"Weylin," Kelsey answered quietly.
Selena, who was eating, quickly replied, "Anything else that bastard did?"
Kelsey sat nervously biting her nails, she didn't have time to answer but Angel spoke first, "Is he getting suspicious? You couldn't be this worried if he didn't know anything right?"
Kelsey gaped in surprise, "Good guess, Angel. You're right."
Selena choked for a second. She coughed. Kelsey grimaced even more in fear, Angel spoke again, "How did he know?"
Kelsey shook her head weakly, "I don't know."
"Then how do you know if he knows?" Angel asked again.
"He texted me and asked me to meet tomorrow to talk about Aiden. Obviously he knows, right? If he doesn't know, why is he talking to me?" Kelsey said sensibly.
Selena, who was no longer coughing anymore, commented, "You're right. But maybe not."
"Huh? What do you mean?" Kelsey asked confused.
Selena started to explain, "I mean it could be that Weylin is suspicious but doesn't know the truth yet so he wants to confirm it first by talking to you."
Kelsey looked thoughtful, it was true. Earlier in Weylin's sentence did not state if he knew Aiden was his child. He's still figuring it out.
"Then what should I do?" Kelsey asked, still worried.
"You don't have to come into the office yet," Selena said casually.
Angel shook her head in disapproval, "That's the stupidest idea you've ever had, Sel."
Selena immediately scowled, "How stupid? Obviously this is the safest search right? There was no need to meet him and he would never know about Aiden. Is not it? If you need to change jobs as well."
Angel sighed annoyed, how could Selena give such stupid advice.
"Don't listen to that useless advice, Kels!" Angel snapped.
Kelsey almost cried, "Then what should I do?"
Angel spoke in a calm voice, “Meet him. Just say that he has no right to meddle in your personal affairs. Hide the fact that Aiden is your son. Face it bravely. I thought, if you were brave, he wouldn't dare go any further, Kels."
Seeing the confusion on her best friend's face, Angel added, "Keep Aiden's rights, Kels. I don't want you to lose to Weylin. You can't run away. Because Weylin already has his suspicions about you. So if you run away, this would even show that you are indeed hiding something from him."
Angel took a breath and continued, "Remember, he's a Malachy. He has the wealth and power to do what he wants. The only way to fight him is you have to play it neat. Just say that Aiden is your son with your ex-boyfriend. The point is not to
he knows for now."
Selena, who had been silent listening to Angel talk, began to understand what her best friend was saying, she again commented, "Wow. You really thought about it that far, huh. Great."
"Tell me about it!" Angel said lazily.
Kelsey nodded weakly, "I understand. I will."
"Good, now rest. Tomorrow you have to face the male lion," Angel said, trying to lighten the mood.
After the video call ended, Kelsey started thinking about making up a story to present to Weylin tomorrow.
"He's my son, right?" Weylin asked to the point.
Kelsey, who had previously practiced answering the question, replied, "He's my son."
"With me, right?" Weylin asked again.
"With the person I love," Kelsey replied.
Weylin frowned, "Don't lie, Kelsey!"
Kelsey, who was still able to calm down, answered with a raised chin, "Why would I lie? He's my son with my first boyfriend."
"No way. Darren says he looks a lot like me when I was a kid," Weylin said.
Kelsey was taken aback.
Is it true? she said to herself. However, Kelsey quickly faked a laugh.
"Similar to you? You're not wrong? Are you stupid?" Kelsey asked with a disdainful smile.
"What do you mean?" Weylin asked back, starting to get provoked.
“Are you really this stupid, Weylin Malachy?” Kelsey said, holding back a laugh.
"Stop it, Kels!" Weylin said in a slightly high tone.
Kelsey stopped her laughter and said, "Kids have changeable faces. You think Aiden is your son just because he looks like you? God, Weylin. You are the most unreasonable person I have ever known."
Weylin's face suddenly turned red up to his ears.
"Stop it, Kels! My patience has a limit," Weylin said, almost couldn't stand Kelsey's words, which seemed to want to insult him all along.
Kelsey didn't want to be outdone, "You think you're the only one who can get angry, Weylin Malachy? Even my patience has a limit."
Weylin gave Kelsey a confused look.
"You Weylin. Since arriving at the bank this has pissed me off. You told the people in this office that we were engaged in an engagement and now you are questioning the status of my child. You think I can't be mad, dammit?" Kelsey cursed angrily.
Weylin was speechless, still at a loss as to how to respond.
“Listen to me, Weylin Malachy! Our engagement relationship is over. We are already nothing. My son has nothing to do with you and you don't need to meddle in my business. be reasonable and be a professional!” Kelsey said aloud.
Weylin gasped. To him, Kelsey's current tantrum looked beautiful.
Beautiful? Weylin shook his head in illogical thought.
“Remember what I said, Mister Malachy!” Kelsey said and he left Weylin's room without saying goodbye.
Weylin only woke up a few minutes later and immediately took water. He even drank two glasses because somehow he felt very thirsty after arguing with Kelsey Lieven.
"Gosh, what are you doing?" I thought just now? I could have thought that Kelsey looked really pretty when she was angry."
Weylin patted himself on the cheek and said to himself, "Come to your senses, Weylin. Aware!"
