Bestfriend Divorced Me When I Carried His Baby (Kelly and Pierce) novel Chapter 216

Chaos… 

Kelly’s POV 

I was sitting in front of Klay. Beside me was Pierce. We’re in our house and we called Klay here to talk about what we need to do. There was a series of deafening silence reigning us. There are so many things going on in my mind. I feel awkward. I was used to lashing out at Klay whenever I saw him and seeing him: now, after everything, felt awkward. 

Pierce cleared his throat. “We need your help.” 

Pierce has always been ambitious and proud but he knows when to lower down his pride and that’s probably one of his traits that I like. He knows what to say and what to do at the right time especially now that he’s matured enough to understand every point of view of the story. 

Klay’s gaze remained on me for a few seconds before he turned to Pierce. “I’m willing to do anything.” 

“Connor Foster, Pierce started as he sighed. “After everything that has happened. I know that he’ll plot something against Kelly.” 

Klay’s forehead creased. “Did you know who Connor Foster is? Aside from being one of the cunning business tycoon, he’s an inactive member of the triad.” 

My forehead creased. “Triad?” 

He nodded. “The illegal organization I belong to. My father’s mafia organization was protected and funded by the triad. This is a higher organization consisting of different powerful people in the whole world.” 

I swallowed hard. “And..Connor Foster is a member?” 

“Inactive member. That is why I couldn’t find evidence to turn him over to the authorities. He wasn’t active so he wasn’t seen in different illegal appointments.” 

I sucked my breath and looked at Pierce. So, staying quiet until now is a good choice for us. I didn’t know that. I dig so hard but I didn’t know that part of the truth…or maybe that’s what Luke found out that’s why he was killed and no one paid for it. 

“He will need the triad’s help now,” Pierce said with a serious face. “He’s angry so he’ll plot something to harm Kelly. He’ll let his guard down because his family is falling apart.” 

I nodded. “He’s right. His sons are slowly drifting away. He won’t let them so he’ll find a way to make them turn their back on me. He might….frame me up for something.” 

“Let him frame you up,” Klay said and glanced at Pierce. “We’ll make it look like he’s succeeding and when he finally thinks he’s winning, we’ll drop the bomb on his face.” 

“Won’t that be dangerous for Kelly? She’s pregnant, Carver.” 

Klay’s lips parted as he looked at me and swallowed hard. He cleared his throat and sighed before he slowly nodded. 

“T–Then….keep them safe.” 

Pierce looked at me. His eyes were worried so I nodded at him because I trust that he’ll keep me safe. 

After the short meeting with Klay, he immediately left I tried to make him stay even for the sake of our past since he took care of me when I was still young and naive. He saved me before and treated me with care. I still value the good memories we had but I admit it couldn’t erase the bad things he did. 

Chape 

Klay insisted on leaving, leaving me and Plerce alone in the house. The guards are scattered everywhere so I know we’re safe. Even Ana, Yara, and Mary have guards on their own, sent by Pierce. 

I lay on the bed beside Pierce after taking a quick bath He immediately wrapped his arms around my waist and burled his face in my neck. I smiled as I rested my leg on his leg and hugged him like a baby. 

“Goodnight, mommy and our baby,” he whispered as he kissed my hair. 

I smiled and squeezed myself in his chest again. “Goodnight, daddy.” 

We slept peacefully that night. I don’t know why even there’s a huge mess circulating around and there was a threat in our lives especially mine, I found myself peacefully sleeping Inside Pierce’s arms. Probably because I know that Klay is around and he will keep me safe no matter what. Him and my husband will. 

The next day, my peaceful sleep was interrupted by a loud bang on the door. Pierce, who was sleeping beside me, immediately sat on the bed and went to the door. 

“Sir, Emily is missing.” 

My whole system was awakened by that bad news. Immediately got off the bed and stood in front of Pierce by the door. 

“What do you mean?” 

He guard looked down. “I apologize, Mrs. Anderson. It was said that she sneaked out last night while everyone’s sleeping and she uhm…put Mr. Matt Foster to sleep before she escaped.” 

I palmed my forehead and sucked my breath. Where did she go? 

I immediately took a quick bath before Pierce and I left to search for Emily. I also called Klay to help. 

[She doesn’t remember?] Klay while I’m sitting on the passenger seat and talking to him over the phone, 

Pierce was beside me, driving while constantly looking around. 

“She only remembers her past. Uhm…she mentioned about her dead fiance.” 

I heard Klay heaved a sigh before he answered. [Go home and rest. I think I know where she is.] 

Hope filled my heart. “Really?” 

Pierce glanced at me and I smiled at him. 

[Yes, I’ll go to her now and bring her back to the hospital. Just go home. It’s not safe for you to roam around even when you have bodyguards and you have Anderson by your side.] 

“Okay. Update me again.” 

After the call, I immediately told Pierce about what I talked about with Klay. He was relieved too and we decided to go back home. However, the tire of the car were riding suddenly explode. I panicked and screamed in fear. The car almost rolled on the road if not for another car in front of us, blocking our way. The emergency airbag did it’s job well since I didn’t feel anything hurting after the car stopped. I realized the car that blocked us in front was the car our guards are using. Another car stopped behind our car and that’s another set of bodyguards. 

“Kelly, are you okay?” Pierce immediately cupped my cheeks.
