The Billionaire's Kept Woman

  MJ was humming while making a mango float for Violet after she learned that she was pregnant. Although her fiancé was a little pissed about Violet, she's happy that Violet would have someone that would remind her of Victor. None of them expected that Victor would be back to them. The Charles Empire is trying hard to make sure that they have full control of the poor guy. 

"What are you so happy about?" Harvey asked as he snorted. "Johanna is pregnant and now Violet is pregnant too!" 

"What are you so annoyed about?" MJ frowned at him. "Can't you just be happy about them?"

"They are the best that could protect Keira. But they are damn pregnant!" 

"Violet is like three months pregnant. I guess… it isn't visible but she's still in her first trimester and it's a little critical for first-time moms." 

  Harvey groaned in frustration and the mittens away. MJ sighed and only shook her head. She secured the mango float and put it in a beautiful box. 

"Let's go and give her something," MJ commanded him. He didn't move from his position and she reached the mitten and threw it to his head. "Right now, Harvey! She's your family too! She was loyal to you." 

"Fuck," Harvey went upstairs while she put it on the freezer to bath with her fiancé and also soothe him from anger. Then, it would make him realize that she's right. 

  At the time that they reached the Golden Age, there seemed to be a commotion and changes. Employees started talking after a few employees quietly left without saying goodbye or anything. But after a while, it won't be a talk anymore. MJ was a little surprised at Violet's new change of hair. Or it might be a wig. She's completely a different person and she's wearing that professional-looking robe style dress and her usual eyeglasses. 

"Madam, Sir, I'm Aubrey, Madam Keira's new assistant. This way please." 

  She walked in a very professional way. MJ gaped at her beauty and she didn't look pregnant at all. Violet escorted them to Keira's office and MJ quickly hugged Keira and lifted the three boxes of mango float that she made. MJ gave one to her and Violet thanked her. 

"Where's Jo?" MJ asked. 

"She's a little late," Keira told her and gestured to the seats. 

"Why is she late?" Harvey asked and sat down with his wife. 

"Well, I don't know." 

"Connor can't be late, K." 

  Keira sighed and shook her head. 

"Jo needs Connor by her side." 

"Oh, come on. We know that she's a hundred times better than Connor." He shrugged. 

"Your sister is pregnant, you ass!" MJ nudged him hard on the ribbed as Harvey groaned in pain and reached his rib. "Anyway, I bought these desserts for you girls. Also, I plan to get along." 

  Violet served them drinks from the fridge and left quietly. MJ stared at the door and glanced at Keira. 

"I was about to invite her," MJ mumbled. "Why is she cold?" Then she glared at Harvey who looked skeptical. 

"What?" 

"Damn, everyone hates you," MJ mumbled. 

"It's fine. You don't hate me." He winked. 

"I could hate you for doing stupid things." She pushed him away as Keira smiled awkwardly. 

"Anyway, the two of you could enjoy ourselves. I'll just go on with my work and enjoy this mango float later." 

"Sure thing." MJ nodded. 

<><><><> 

  Violet was already done with the afternoon stuff and she handled things easily. She even got to speak with Johanna. She almost called her Hannah many times but she knew that Johanna would be uncomfortable. Besides, there's also Connor who was close to her too. They had few friendly gestures and she even watched Johanna observe them. She noticed that Johanna remained monotonous or maybe being monotonous and silent was a type of jealousy. 

  Overall, Johanna spoke to her professionally and she's a kind woman. She's overprotective toward Keira and she understands that. Since she's a stranger to her. 

"So, you drive by yourself?" Connor asked while they were in the elevator together with Johanna. 

"No. Someone will pick me up." 

"I already spoke to Jo. You can stay at our house if you want~~" 

"No." She shook her head. "I have money and I have a home to stay. I can also take care of myself." 

"Okay," Connor nodded. "Let's talk later?" he suggested. 

"Sure." Violet smiled and by the time that they reached the lobby, Connor hugged Violet in a friendly way and Bull was waiting outside for her. 

  Violet got into the car as Bull, who was acting as her boyfriend, was very much a gentleman. She watched Johanna who walked to the parking lot while Connor was holding her hand. He was protective of her and she envied them. She remembers how Victor was protective on his way and he also let her beat up men who harassed her in the bar. Mostly, their relationship was lots of extreme fun and she loved the adrenaline rush with him. 

  She knew that their relationship wasn't like that. And she's happy that it wasn't. She wanted Hannah Grace to be safe and she's secured to Connor. One of the men that she trusts. 

"I bought things that you like. Including instant ramen and stuff." Bull mumbled. 

"Thank you," Violet mumbled and removed her wig. Then, she placed it carefully on the zip lock bag as she let the net on her head stay. Then, she put a hat on and sunglasses. 

"Do you feel unwell? How about a doctor?" Bull suggested. "You need an OB." 

"Can you take me maybe this Saturday?" 

"Sure." Bull nodded. "I'll settle our identity. Okay?" 

  Violet nodded at him. The time that they reached the apartment that she's staying nearby. Bull carefully took out the groceries and she took the lightest one. Then, they walked to the elevator after Bull, seeing that it's empty, he told her to get in and he entered and made her stay behind him. The door was about to close but it opened again and a man in a hood entered. She quickly recognized the man with his perfume. 

"I didn't know that you moved out," Leon said and turned to them. Bull gave him the other grocery bag and he was momentarily puzzled. Chameleon sighed and stared at her. "And you are pregnant?" 

"None of your business." 

"Who's the father?" he creased his brows and Bull growled at him. 

"Just shut up, Leon. I won't fuck you ever in my life." 

  Leon groaned and faced the door. He sighed again in frustration. 

"What did the Boss say?" 

"Fuck him," Violet mumbled which made Bull sneered. 

"Alright," Leon mumbled. 

  The time that they reached the apartment that has three rooms, two bathrooms, and complete things. But Violet kept it minimal. The two become so protective of her that Leon even follows her to her room and he checks if there's an assassin hiding. 

"Call me if something jumps." He said and left the room. 

"I can kill a man with my bare hands, Leon." 

  She removed the hat and the net. She then locked the door and undressed. She kicked off her shoes and faced the mirror. She has a small bump. Really small bump. She put her robe on, sat on the sofa to relax. She let out a sigh of relief as she rubbed her tummy. A knock on the door made her roll her eyes. 

"Vi. It's me. I have some refreshments. Warm or cold?" 

"I will get it myself. Don't bother unless it's dinner." 

"Oh~~okay." 

  She closed her eyes and reached the adorable long plush pillow and placed it over the head of the sofa. She lay down a little bit to relax when Leon knocked on the door again. 

"What?" 

"Do you like yogurt? I can buy one outside." 

"For god's sake. Stop bothering me!" 

  Leon shut up outside the door. 

"Okay…" 

  She closed her eyes to have a nap and her lower back was aching a little bit. Probably because of sitting too much. She finished a few reports and she also sorted out the computer that Vanessa was using. Keira even provided her with a new desktop. She even checked if there were bugs before formatting it. However, the money that she received from Alessandro was bigger than she expected. It's to protect Keira. That's what rich people do. 

"I'm glad that she lives well," Violet mumbled as she thought of Hannah Grace or Johanna. 

She was glad that Johanna lived with people who loved her. She wondered how they would celebrate Johanna's birthday. Did they also change it? Somehow, she wanted to tell Johanna that Victor was waiting for her and even celebrated her birthday every year. She wanted to give the gifts to her. She deserves it all. She also wanted Johanna to know that Victor loved her so much. 

  She had a little nap and started dreaming of Victor.

The dream was like her fantasy. Victor was holding their baby and he's wearing a white shirt. The windows and balcony are open and the sea could be seen outside. The sea salt air was refreshing and cozy. Then, he smiled at her. 

"Victor, my love." She called. 

"My love…" he mumbled. "Isn't she beautiful?" Victor asked. 

  She looked at the baby. But it's too bright that she couldn't even see the baby's face or it was blurry in her eyes. 

"She is." 

"She looks like you. Partially… and Hannah Grace." Victor kissed the baby's head. 

  Violet inhaled his scent and hugged him. 

"I wish to never wake up in this fantasy." 

"Love, you still have to eat dinner to feed our baby." 

  That's when Violet opened her eyes and someone was knocking on the door. 

"Vi, dinner is ready." 

"Fuck." She mumbled and sat up. But she's indeed starving.
