The Saddest Goodbye

XVI

Amber's POV

We arrived at the café Kris told me to meet.

"Are you okay?" Henry asked.

"I don't know." I just answered.

"It's okay. I know you'll do what is right. You always do." He replied while patting my back.

We entered the café and saw Kris with and old man talking seriously.

We slowly approached their table after a minute they noticed us. Kris gestured us to sit in front of them.

"So, what first?" I asked eyeing Kris.

"Attorney Lim?" Kris asked.

"Well, first, we need to address first the situation you two are into. Ms. Liu, you and Mr. Wu had a relationship five years ago, so, why did you broke up with him?" Mr. Lim asked.

"Why do people broke up? It's because they don't love each other anymore and as for me, I didn't know I was pregnant when we broke up." I answered. I could feel Henry staring at me in disbelief. He knows the truth. He knows that me, running away from everything was all because of Kris's career.

"May I asked why you didn't tell him?" He asked again.

"It's simple. Kris was already famous and I don't want to interrupt his career nor my child's private life." I answered straightly.

Kris looked at me like he was disappointed? Whatever. I don't care.

"So, your reason is you want to protect your child's life so you took away Kris' custody of the child?" He asked.

"I believe the judge does the asking here Mr. Lim." Henry interrupted.

We walked out of the café but Kris ran after us causing me to stop on my tracks.

"Amber, I'm sorry anout how my lawyer acted. He was just doing his ways. We can talk about this right?" He explained.

"Explain what? That you're going to take away my son in anyway you can? You're finding holes so that you could win this case. In my lofe I have not done anything bad to you except leaving you. How could you?" I asked half shouting.

"Just leaving huh? Did you know how devastating it was you leaving me like that?" Kris answered back.

"Could we just stop this? I'm tired. You have your life now right? You're happy and abundant. You don't need us.I asked.

"No. I need you. Now, we all know the consequences right. If this case goes on, you know you're going to lose but, if you agree.. on marrying me, I'll let this go and you could be with Ace." He said.

"Marry you? Why would I do that?" I asked.

"Well, first of all you don't have a choice. Next, I already told my manager to release a statement about us. And lastly, you want Ace to have a complete family, don't you?" He replied with a smirk.

"So what now Ms. Liu? Marry me or lose everything?" He added.

"You're a jerk." I said.

"You made me one. See you at the aisle babe." He mocked while entering his car.

" I think You just got engaged Miss Liu." Henry joked.

"Now is not the time to joke around idiot." I elbowed him.

"Well, Am I invited?" He asled again.

"Your job here is done. You could go now." I replied.

I straightly went inside my car and started the engine. I drove as far away as I can. This day is not getting worse right?

I stop by at a diner and ordered something to cool meoff.

"Miss, what can I help you?" The waitress asked.

"I would like to have some mango shake and a hamburger." I ordered.

She walked away as I distracted myself on the view outside the window.

"BREAKING NEWS!! KRIS WU OF THE IT ENTERTAINMENT AGENCY IS ENGAGED."

The company announces that their artist, Kris Wu is already planning his marraige. The fiancée is still not identified but the fans are speculatin that it might be someone from the entertainment agency too.

I closed my eyes trying to to take in what I heard. And suddenly my phone beeped.

It was Kris.

"Hello?" He greeted.

"What now?" I replied.

"Don't be stubborn wife."

"I'm not your wife."

"Still not. But you're gonna be in a week." He answered.

"What?!! A week?!! Are you kidding me??!!" I shouted making the costumers inside the diner look at my direction I just bowed for saying sorry.

"Tomorrow, you need to dress up. I'm going to introduce you to everyone." He replied and ended the call leaving me shocked. So shocked.
