The Billionaire's Kept Woman

Chapter 101 - First Born

Early in the morning, Karmina woke up to make breakfast. Today, it'll be a special breakfast that she's going to make. She prepared the flour and other ingredients for pancake making and waffles. She remembered that her beloved son wanted pancakes for breakfast, with a poached egg on bread with ham and cheese. He requests it on his every birthday as breakfast.

Karmina played the new composition that Keira made for his brother. Even though she had amnesia for years, Keira never forgot about her brother's birthday and she recorded her compositions and compiled it. Last night, it's quite surprising that Keira was polishing the compositions. She said that she wanted to put it on vinyl and CD as a gift for her brother. She must have missed him as she did.

"You are up early," Alex said as he reached his mug with his name on it.

"It's my son's birthday." She said with a smile. "Thirty-three years old."

"Oh, Harvey!" He snapped. "I miss that boy. He used to threaten Alessandro back then." He chuckled.

"Poor Alessandro." Karmina chuckled.

"Need a hand?" He asked.

"Yes, can you please grill the ham and bacon? My son loves to grill bacon and ham for his sandwich without any oil."

"Sure," Alex said. In the wide kitchen, they have a griller that is also fire operated. Alex noticed the music that Karmina was playing. "That's a new one?" He asked.

"Yes," She said. "Keira and Alessandro recorded it last night."

"It's beautiful," Alex said.

"It is…" She agreed and continued stirring on the mixing bowl. "I just wished that Henry and Harvey were here." She mumbled. "They will be happy for their little Princess."

Alex felt sad for Karmina. She lost a beloved son and a beloved husband. Both of them are still mourning and he also celebrates his wife's birthday with his son. But Karmina always seemed to make it special.

"I remember when Keira and I had nothing at all. She still managed to buy an easy-to-mix pancake and ham and bread. She told me that she's been saving it for Harvey's birthday." Karmina swallowed the lump on her throat. "When she asked me about her brother, I couldn't say it but I had to. She lost half of her memories after that incident."

"Hey," Alex patted her back. "Don't worry. Keira would be happier if you weren't sad on this day."

"I'm sorry," Karmina chuckled to conceal her sadness. "I shouldn't open that up."

"It's fine. Sometimes, you have to open up to let all of it go. You don't have to always keep it to yourself. Crying and asking for comfort can be good for your heart."

"Thank you, Alex." Karmina was glad that there's Alex. The one who always comforts her after she loses them.

"Good morning!" Keira shouted aloud and grinned. "It's Harvey's birthday!" She also looked hyper and she hugged Alex and Karmina.

"I am preparing something special today." Karmina kissed Keira's forehead.

Johanna stretched her arms and looked at the man beside him who had his heavy arm over her naked stomach. Last night was epic. She never expects that even oral sex was pleasurable. He seemed to be too tired since he did all of the work and she was just lying down. She was surprised when he pulled her closer to him as he snuggled to her neck. She remembered well how hard and big he was. He mentioned that they needed to stretch her up and he didn't just use his mouth but his finger.

If she knew that sex would be like this good, she would have done it. But somehow, Conrad was the first one to whom she was attracted.

"Hey, beautiful." He murmured as he grinned.

"Are we going to exercise today?" She asked.

"It's my day off and I can do whatever I want except exercise."

She watched his hand scooped her breasts and played with them. Her nipples hardened and she stopped him.

"Or do you want my mouth between your legs?" He grinned at her.

"I need to pee." She pushed him as she reached her dress and put it on. She walked toward the bathroom and he whistled to tease her further.

Conrad lay flat down as he stretched his arms. The time that he remembered last night just stirred up his erection. He wanted to take her virginity during the time that he's dating her. However, he felt bad taking it when he wasn't sure that he'll marry her. He's not right for marriage with his current situation and he was already an orphan. Johanna came back shortly and bent down to kiss him. He immediately kissed her back and lifted her dress.

"No." She stopped him. "Let's go down. Mom was already busy an hour ago preparing breakfast."

He groaned at her.

"We can have it in the penthouse later." She smiled at him.

"I will have to leave later." He said.

"Oh," She looked disappointed.

"But I'll pick you up." He said it was like a promise.

"Okay." He kissed her further and a knock on the door startled them. She quickly pulled him to push him somewhere.

"Jo," Keira called. "Breakfast will be ready in twenty minutes. And please also tell Conrad that he has to eat breakfast before leaving."

"Oh~~okay," Johanna said and glared at Conrad who had his hand to her breast. She smacked him.

"Ow…" He hissed.

He woke upright when he heard something from downstairs. He glanced at his fiancee who was sleeping peacefully, too tired to get up. He gently slipped off from the bed, put his boxer shorts on, and walked downstairs without making any sound. A man was busy at the table taking out food from the thermo bag. He was a little bit quizzical on why he was there.

"Good morning." The man said without glancing up at him.

"Old man, what are you doing here?" He asked as the old man kept a cap over his head. He's tall, has a wrinkled face, and wears cover-up clothes.

"Preparing your breakfast." He said. "If your mom was here, she would be already awake and preparing your favorite breakfast. So, I also make enough for two people." He set up the table in an English Style.

Harvey's heart melted and he looked at the pancake, a sandwich with ham, bacon, cheese, lettuce, and a poached egg on top of it.

"I won't take long. It's still dark outside and no one should see me here." He took out the glass bottles and put them in the fridge.

"Okay," he said. He sighed and hated him to leave early but he knew that he had to. "Don't you want to meet my fiancee?"

"No. Not right now. Everyone is still in danger." He put a box over the counter table. "I'll see you soon." He said and left using the back door.

Harvey shook his head as he smiled. The old man never forgot his birthday and always prepared the foods that he wanted for his breakfast every year. He cooled the same way that his mother does.

"Babe,"

He turned his head to the sleepy beautiful woman wearing a silk dress.

"Hey,"

"How fast did you prepare breakfast?" She asked.

"The old man prepared it for us."

"Oh," She nodded her head. He mentioned the 'old man' many times but he never said his name.

"Hot water first?" He asked.

"I'll prepare for it. Sit down, birthday boy."

Harvey sat down as MJ prepared two warm water for them and she took a seat on the chair beside him and smiled at him.

"You look more beautiful whenever you smile like that." He said and scooped her chin as he bent to her and kissed her lips.

"So, this is your usual meal during your birthday?" She asked.

"Yeah, my mom would cook it for me every year." He said. "Even when I'm not at home."

"I should learn all of these to cook for you," MJ said as she put a piece of pancake over his plate and poured maple syrup.

"You will?"

"Yes, of course." She smiled at him.

"We will leave early to have your check-up." He reached her hand and squeezed it. Although they both lacked sleep, he's very much good at endurance.

She nodded at him and pursed her lips. He knew that the trauma was still there and it happened three months ago. Also, he'll help her with the trauma. At the moment, his team was busy torturing those bastards who violated her. He will make sure that they wished that they never did it to her. She is his woman, and he would kill anyone who hurt her.

"Don't worry, we will have a baby." He said it was a promise. Although MJ won't say it. She wanted to be a mother and to have a baby with him. "Let's talk about your resignation. How about that?" He asked with a smile.

"I have to protect Keira first until there's a replacement."

"Oh, okay." He nodded at her. His fiancee had no idea that the woman that she's protecting is his sister. He didn't know how to bring it up. "But if we confirm that you are pregnant, you have to resign."

"How am I going to earn money?" She asked him.

"I'll give you." He winked.

"And I'll be bored in the house."

"You won't be." He winked again.

She giggled and stood as she pushed his seat a little and sat on his lap. He wrapped his arms around her.

"I have a question."

"Hmm?" He caressed her hair and tucked it in the back of her ear.

"Are you sure about marriage?"

"Yes," he answered without showing many expressions.

"And if I didn't get pregnant, would you leave me?" She asked again as anxiety rushed through her.

"No. I'll make sure that you'll get pregnant. I'll make sure that you'll have a baby."

She hugged him.

"And if you don't get pregnant," He caressed her hair. "I'll stay with you, always." He whispered like a promise.
