Ghost of My Heart - Chapter 91
Jennet pushed the plate to the centre of the table and leaned back on the chair, looking so sour. Can’t escape the fate of bearing his children? Nonsense!
“I can’t believe your words! You always tricked me!” She said, denying the truth that couldn’t be proven.
Hue raised his eyebrow in disbelief. “Heh? Why? The proof is in your belly. We can wait for the next month for a check-up at the hospital.” He proposed a solution to prove his statement.
“Why do we have to wait for next month to come?”
“Because I want to know how big they are in your belly by next month.”
“You’re just so unbelievable!”
“What’s unbelievable? We can start making a scrapbook and paste their photos on it as part of their life journey into this world. It will be their life journal.”
Jennet held her head and sighed softly, “Oh Hue, I don’t think I can keep up to all of your fantasy.”
“Hey, fantasy is real!”
“I’m not talking about you!” Jennet roared angrily.
She cupped her face in her palms, exhaling a long sigh. What should she do now? If she’s really pregnant, how is she going to go to war with a baby in her belly, fighting her mama?
There was only silence between them. No one dared to speak a single word.
Hue leaned forward and called her, “Honey, baby, love, my wife, I am talking about the truth. You are really pregnant. That mark of your forehead is the proof. God of Birth had granted us blessings.” He explained.
Jennet raised her head, “Then, until next month, no s**!”
That would be the best solution to make sure he didn’t play a prank on her over such serious matter. It will both be a punishment for him!
“Noo!!!”
***
A week later after the declaration of no s** until the next month, Hue was like a living statue in the villa. He moved only to do house chores and the rest of the days, he sat in front of the TV, staring mindlessly at the blank screen.
Jennet didn’t pay him any attention either and went to work as usual, as if nothing has ever happened between them.
“Hue?” A hand patted his shoulder from behind.
He snapped into reality and found out he was wearing a flowy dress in floral design that matches his height and body. He also had boobs inside the dress!
Oh great, today’s the day that he had to do the photoshoot as part of a duel. Duel…duel…duel…
The make-up artist, Dana, glanced at him, looking so worried. The man was lost in his own world ever since he stepped into the studio.
“Are you alright?” She asked, worried he might be uncomfortable in the dress.
Hue nodded his head, “I’m alright. No need to worry.” He replied and masked his face with a smile.
Dana nodded her head and did a few touched upon his face. “Make sure you keep the artificial breasts in place during any movements. I didn’t know your size and preference because Mr Tybelg gave me the orders to buy that size for you. So, it’s all Mr Tybelg’s preference.” She explained while doing a touch upon his face.
Dana felt it so weird when she got the orders from Luca to buy artificial breasts with large cups size. Then, she wondered just how many women had he slept with that he knows which size to buy. Plus, he said to buy it for the fair-skinned.
When she knew the one who will be wearing them will be a man, she freaked out once again. A man will be putting the breasts on!
Then, she had an overnight high fever due to the shock before she turned up to work this morning with saggy eyes and a burning spirit to keep her mental sane at all time.
Oh, my handsome Luca Tybelg actually liked the same gender but with huge boobs! She cried internally beside the confused Hue who kept watching her sighing non-stop while doing his make-up.
“Dana, are you okay?” Hue asked, looking concerned. “You’re tired. You can have a rest.” He added and smiled at her. Why was this woman kept on sighing non-stop before him? Plus, she had been crying out loud for Luca in her head.
Dana shook her head. “Do not mind me. Just keep making Mr Tybelg happy.” She said.
Ah, she needs to accept the reality that Luca Tybelg had different preference regarding his life partner. She thought she will be doing make-up for the woman he loved but instead of a woman, she was doing the make-up for a man. A very handsome man!
Why is the world so cruel towards a single make-up artist like her? She took the job because she likes Luca who happened to be her former classmates years ago whom she had a crush on but now she had to keep a distance from them to make them happy.
Life had been so unfair!
Hue stared at the bespectacled woman who was like a loud radio before him. He could hear all of her thoughts, clearly.
This woman honestly liked Luca Tybelg and she had set her aim in life to match him. But, she was not noticeable by the busy Luca Tybelg. In fact, she was like an ant passing by his feet.
“Do you like Luca?” Hue asked in a low voice, worried the other crew might eavesdrop their conversation.
Dana stuttered when the brush slipped through her fingers but Hue caught it for her. She was flustered when he handed the brush back to her.
“What nonsense are you spouting. I could never like him.” She denied the truth with a thick but red face.
“I could make him notice you if you give me a chance to help.” Hue offered his help. He had better make Luca fell for another woman so his wife can work peacefully in the company without anymore troubling scandal.
“Why are we talking about this?” Dana asked him. It was uncomfortable for her to talk about the person she likes with a stranger like him.
“You seemed so down plus your look brightened only when you see him. So, I guess you like him.” Woman, I would hear your thoughts. If only my wife is readable like you, my life would be super easy! Hue mumbled alone.
“No, I would rather be noticed by Felix and not him.” Said Dana, hiding her real feeling. It’s just impossible for Luca to notice her. She had always been the unnoticeable woman when it comes to him.
“No, no, I can help to make him notice you.” Said Hue.
“I can’t do that. He likes you.” Dana talked back. Luca Tybelg likes the man before her. She can’t compare herself with him. There was just so much difference between them. She was plain and not pretty, she was bespectacled and unsociable.
“I am married and I love my wife. I’m doing this job as part of helping my wife, just so you know.” Hue explained the situation to her.
Dana gasped. He had a wife?! Then, Luca can’t marry him.
“Hey, I am never going to marry anyone but only my wife. You better clear your head from unhealthy thoughts.” Hue said to her, feeling the chill down his spine at the thought that he had just read in her head.
Oi, oi, woman, what kind of people have you associated with? What kind of wild imagination you have inside there? Hue’s eyes turned white when he shuddered just trying to think about him marrying Luca Tybelg.
“Hue! Are you ready?” The photographer called out to him before he could continue to talk.
“Are you sure with what you said earlier?” Dana asked when Hue rose from the chair. Her heart bloomed and she was fidgety over the chance that offers itself before her.
Hue smiled at her and said, “Yes, I am sure will help you if you want my help.” Then he walked towards the photographer while trying to walk steadily in his dress. Luckily he wore a sandal underneath the dress because he was already too tall for high heels.
The studio brightened and Hue just realised there was a huge bed in the middle where they will be taking the photoshoot.
“Why is there a bed here?” Hue turned at the photographer. He had an uneasy feeling about the bed.
“You will be sitting on the bed and posed for the camera.” Answered the photographer. “Just sit there, I’ll rearrange the angles of your sitting.” He gestured at him to take his seat on the bed.
Hue did ad he said and awkwardly sit down on the edge of the bed.
“Make yourself comfortable please.” Said the photographer again as he readjusted the lenses of his camera.
Hue ended up sitting upright on the bed like a robot. His big chest protruding, looking so sexy and alluring with his long hair overflowing on the bed.
Tenko the photographer gnashed his teeth in silence. What kind of sitting is this? I wanted a professional model not someone like this!! He roared silently within.
Hue suddenly lay on his side with one hand pillaring his cheek. His big chest rested on the bed, looking heavy to the eyes. He also showed off his long legs under the dress.
Again, Tenko gawked behind the camera. Are we shooting for lewd pictures here?
“Can someone tell him how to sit comfortably?!” Tenko roared at the staffs while pointing towards Hue.
He can’t handle his anger ever since Luca Tybelg cancelled the contract made with a model for this cover. He was partly angry and disappointed but because he needed money, he had to follow what Luca wanted.
From the VIP seat, Luca chuckled alone. Hue looked exactly the same as the woman who bedded him. Luckily he remembered her chest size. Looking at him now is as if he is looking at her.
“The woman who kidnapped me looks like him. Look carefully at how he looks now because they have exactly the same face and her chests are as big as those.” Luca told Felix.
Felix nodded his head. That means the woman who kidnapped him before was a very beautiful woman. If Hue is the reference then, the answer will also lie on Hue. No other woman looked like Hue except Hue himself. Hue, in female attire, looks so much like a woman.
“Have you guess Hue may be the same person?” Felix asked.
“I did but now I didn’t dare to say he is exactly the same person because he is hiding something massive behind everyone including Jennet,” Luca said. “He and the woman who had the same face must have a connection. I would like to believe what I say now.”
“Why? Is it all because of Jennet?” Felix asked.
Luca fell into a moment of silence. Then he spoke, “Yes if her own husband turned out to be a woman…well, I do not dare to think she marries a woman either. It’s just impossible. Her husband must have a deep connection with that woman. They must be two different people.”
Felix watched him getting all fidgety over a woman. Well, he must have liked Jennet so much that he refused to think of the impossible.
“Should I monitor them?” Felix suggested.
“No, I’ve plans to keep Hue around. This deal between us is a secret and Jennet knew nothing about it.”
“What do you plan?”
“At the moment, I’ll stick to our ‘duel’. He’s quite dense and childish for not questioning further for the reason of this duel. I don’t know what Jennet sees in him.” Luca’s mood soured when he tried to think all of the possible reasons that made Jennet fell for this childish man.
“Maybe Jennet’s taste is slightly different from the woman her age. Not all human have the same taste. Just like you, you like busty and beautiful women.”
“Felix, I dated them since they said they liked me. So, I just grab the opportunity.”
“Then that means you could not differentiate real love from like. But, I will always support you if you like somebody better in the future.” Felix said with a poker face. I have suffered because of your blindness.
He hated those women who ever dated Luca because they are all just after his wealth and not really honest but what can he say about it because he knew Luca lack the love from a woman especially his mother. He knew Luca dated those women because he wanted to feel kind affection from them but it couldn’t fill the void in his heart who craved for motherly love. He pitied Luca but he too was helpless. All he could do was being a faithful assistant and be the one that Luca can rely upon during all turmoil.
Luca smiled at the poker-faced man. “Thank you, Felix.”

Hue went home at midnight and was totally exhausted. He tiptoed into the bedroom, afraid of making any sound that could arouse Jennet from her sleep.
However, Jennet jolted from her sleep and hit the lights on. Hue froze at the door of the bathroom with a bath towel hanging around his neck.
“Where have you been today?” Jennet questioned him with a glare. She stepped out of the bed and stood before him.
Her nose twitched as she sniffed his clothes. There was a faint smell of perfume on him, one that was not his usual scent.
“This smell on your body is not your scent.” She fumed at him and yanked on his shirt with displeased.
“This is the smell of a woman’s perfume!” She added.
