Running Away from One Night Lover after Carrying His Child

"Jacob," Ivana whispered when she heard Diana's scream. She couldn't figure out why her feet spontaneously stepped to follow him. She looked at Jackson first. When she saw that he had rescued Yael, she then sped off to follow Jacob.

Abruptly, Ivana hid behind one of the pillars of the building when Jacob suddenly turned around.

"Is someone following me?" Jacob whispered. When he didn't see anyone, he continued running towards where the elevator was.

Ivana just stared at Jacob's back because she couldn't follow him to the elevator. They will only have arguments when he sees her. She went to the buffet area first because she felt hungry out of the blue.

"Since today is cheat day, I am going to eat my favorite sweet foods! I am going to get back to you later, Jackson," said Ivana.

Meanwhile, Jackson carefully lowered Freya after he lifted her out of the pool. Everyone in the pool area was looking at him especially the women. His body is as hot as hell.

"Kid, I am going to save your mother's life but you should follow my order. Is that okay with you?" Jackson politely asked Yael. He looked up at him because he was kneeling on the floor.

"That's fine with me, just … just save my mom. I beg you," Yael's eyes watered.

Jackson nodded. "Now, turn around and don't move until I say so," he ordered.

Yael immediately obeyed Jackson's command. Jackson frowned when he couldn't see where Ivana was but he continued doing cardio-pulmonary resuscitation on Freya.

Jackson placed his hands at the center of Freya's chest then he pushed hard and fast, about twice per second. He lifted his entire body weight off her in between each compression. He repeated it thirty times.

"Kid, don't look yet. I still need to do two rescue breathing," said Jackson when he noticed that Yael already wanted to face the two of them.

Jackson stared at Freya's lips. He swallowed his own saliva and closed his eyes before doing rescue breathing. He failed at his first try so he decided to repeat it. When he was about to put his lips to Freya's lips, he was surprised when she suddenly pushed him away. Freya was in awe.

"What did you do? What the hell are you doing?" Freya said with glaring eyes as she folded her hands over her chest.

"Mommy!" Yael shouted as he faced and hugged his mother. "Sir, thank you! Thank you for saving my mom!" he said crying.

"Saving?" Freya whispered. She looked around. People are already whispering about her.

"If I were in her position, I would pretend to be unconscious so Pogi could kiss me!" said by a woman.

"Same girl! Look at her. She's the one who was saved by him but she still had the guts to be rude," said another woman.

People left their side and returned to their respective places earlier.

Freya's cheeks flushed suddenly. She could feel nothing now but shame. She stood up and put her arms around Yael.

"Ahmm.. I’m .. I’m so-sorry if I pushed you. I-I thought you tried to uhmm ..."

"It's okay. I'm glad you are fine now," Jackson said with a smile on his handsome face.

"By the way, thank you for saving me and my son," Freya said shyly.

"You're welcome. Next time, do not rescue someone who's drowning when you are not trained to do so. Be careful and look after your son." Jackson stood up and walked closer to Yael. "What's your name, little kid?"

"I'm Yael Anderson Gray," Yael replied with a smile.

"Anderson Gray?" Jackson whispered.

"Yes. Mommy Freya said that she followed my name after my dad’s name. How about you? What is your name?"

"I'm Jackson," he replied with a smile.

"I'm sorry, Yael is really talkative. Thank you again for helping us," Freya said while bowing down.

"It’s nothing, Freya. Can I ask you something … if you don't mind?"

"Sure. What is that Sir Jackson?"

"Just call me Jackson. Hmm, where's your husband? I’m sorry to ask this but I noticed he’s not around. Sorry again for being too nosy hehe," Jackson pretended to look around. He already knew that Jacob was Yael's possible father but he also needed to hear it directly from Freya's mouth.

Freya smiled and then told Yael to sit down in one of the modern pool lounge chairs. She looked at where Yael was sitting.

"Since you saved our lives, I'm not going to lie but … promise me that you will not tell this to anyone, especially to my son."

"You can count on me." Jackson was excited to hear Freya's answer to his question.

"I told him, his dad died a long time ago but..."

"But?" Jackson asked with excitement displayed on his entire face.

"But it's just an excuse so he won't tease me anymore about his daddy's identity. The truth is..."

Jackson raised his eyebrows. Why does Freya stop talking again?

"Yael's father is J—"

"Jackson!"

Freya and Jackson turned their faces to Ivana's direction at the same time. Her face was indescribable because she saw her boyfriend talking to that girl. She doesn't know why her blood boils every time she sees her.

"Babe, have you been there for a while?" Jackson asked wryly. He was very annoyed because his girlfriend showed up when he was about to confirm if Jacob was really Yael's father.

Ivana walked faster and pulled Jackson away from Freya. She scanned Freya from head to toe. Jackson did nothing. He just looked at the ceiling.

"What's your name?" Ivana asked.

"F-Freya,” she answered.

"Freya, what a common name! Anyway, don't you already have a child?" Ivana looked at Yael who was now playing on Freya's cell phone while lying on the lounge chair.

"Yes why?" Freya asked.

"Then act like you have one! Stop flirting with random guys especially if you know it's impossible for a guy to not have a girlfriend. Get it?" Ivana remonstrated.

"Babe, Freya and I were just talking. What are you talking about? Don't you trust me?" Jackson replied.

Ivana looked directly into his eyes.

"I'm not talking to you so shut your mouth." Ivana was really not in the mood anymore. Even Jackson felt sorry for Freya.

"Miss, don't worry. I have no intention of taking Jackson away from you. I just thanked him because he saved me and my son from drowning. I'm sorry if you were jealous of us. You have nothing to be jealous of—"

"Jealous? Who told you I'm jealous of you? I know Jackson, he won't consider a CHEAP woman like you." Ivana laughed.

Freya clenched her hands and then slowly opened them. "Sorry again. Uhmm, I'll go first. My son is waiting for me," she said.

Freya didn't wait for Ivana to speak again because she was afraid of what she might say, so as long as she could keep her composure, she turned her back on the lovers.

Jackson's gaze followed Freya until she landed next to Yael.

"Babe, why are you acting like that? You're not like that! She's just being grateful. You know me because you know me so why are you acting like you're being jealous of her?" Jackson said.

"Babe, I'm sorry but for some reasons I can't explain, my blood boils every time I saw her. She looks like a slut! Look, it's like her son has no father. Maybe, he left them for some shitty reasons! I'm sorry, okay? I didn’t … I just don't like her!" explained Ivana.

"I haven't confirmed yet if Jacob is Yael's daddy," Jackson whispered.

"What did you say, babe?"

"No babe. Let's go back to our room. I'll get dressed before we go to the gaming area."

When Jackson and Ivana left, Diana approached Freya and Yael but did not reveal herself.

What are the mother and son doing here? Why out of all the people in the world, they had met my brother, Jackson? Hey! What should I do? Should I introduce myself to them as Yael's aunt? Erase. Erase! They might avoid me. Wooh Brother Jacob! I want to bury you six feet underground while you’re still breathing! If you didn't ignore them, I wouldn't be feeling guilty for them now! Your son looks just like you! Wait, why are Jackson and Ivana together? Has Kuya Jacob and that slut broke up?’ Diana stopped listening to her thoughts when Yael nudged her.

"Miss, your hat fell off," Yael said as he reached for Diana's hat.

"Thank you, kid. So kind of you," Diana said while smiling. 'Yael is handsome, especially up close! His eyes are as big as Freya's, but his presence screams Jacob’s genes! He's definitely a Gray!' Diana said silently.

"Yael, come on. Let's go swimming again later," said Freya.

Diana immediately put on her shades and hat when she felt Freya was looking at her.
