Chapter 180
After Doctor Bennet examined my CT scan, he assured me everything was perfectly normal, and the headaches and nosebleeds are related to my amnesia. I would experience this on and off for a while. Well, that's simply great, just one more thing on top of everything else I have to deal with.
"Josh," I call out as we walk back up to the maternity ward where Shayla and Aimee were. Josh looks at me questioningly. "I need to see her and apologise."
Josh shakes his head swiftly. "Cole, no. That's not a good idea. You're the last person she wants to see or even needs to see for that matter." He declares ruefully, and I sigh wistfully, rubbing my forehead.
"I understand that, but I need to apologise for the things I said to her. She needs to know I'm sorry." I explain, and Josh exhales deeply.
"You two are going to be the death of me, I swear to god. Aimee is furious with you, and she will kill you before she lets you anywhere near Shayla." Josh sighs and pinches t

I stare at the window to my right. I can see Cole in the reflection of the glass. He just stood there looking at me miserably. I can't simply put into words how devastated I feel right now because there are no words that could ever describe how I felt. I lay down and turn my back to him, sobbing."Shay,""Get out. I don’t ever want to see you again." I utter brokenly and watch through the glass as he turns and walks to the door.Cole stops suddenly and looks at me, "I swear to you in front of all our family and friends that I will make each day we spend together better than the last." I still when I hear him repeat his wedding vows. I turn my head and look back at him; he holds my gaze. "I'm truly sorry that I couldn't keep my promise to you," Cole whispers before he opens the door and walks out of the room.I bury my face into my hands and weep.He's starting to remember, and the fact he's putting us through this, knowing he made me a promise like

If I weren't pregnant, I don't know how I would have coped. The way I'm feeling right now, I would have swallowed a bottle of pills and ended it all because I can't take much more. I just can't--I have nothing left. Cole's wrecked me beyond repair. I just want this pain to stop. Every breath I take feels like it's choking the life out of me. And the more I think about him with her, happy, while I'm hurting, the more I feel like dying.I wish I never met him. I wish I could rip out my heart and hurl it at him and scream, here, take it because it's worthless to me now. I feel the life being excruciatingly siphoned right out of me, and I can't bear it."Shay, we're here." I jerk out of my thoughts when Jo touches my leg to get my attention. I get out of the car and walk to the front door of my childhood home. I didn't have my keys, so I knock on the door and pray my mother was home. The door opens, and I watch the smile disappear off her face when she sees the state of me

"Thank you. I need to figure something out soon before she comes. I'm not even ready for her, and she's due in twelve weeks." I sigh, defeated. "Cole and I were supposed to go and get everything she needed after he got back from his trip, but...""Then we will go and get everything she needs." My mother states, kissing my temple and rubbing my bump. I sigh, suddenly exhausted, and nod. "How about I make you and my granddaughter your favourite dish?" I shake my head."I'm not hungry. I just want to go home, shower, and sleep for a while," I answer, and she nods in understanding."Okay, but make sure you eat honey. I know food is the last thing on your mind, but the baby needs the nutrients to grow and be strong, especially the weeks leading up to the birth." My mother explains, and I nod. "Make sure she eats." She firmly tells Jo who nods in assurance."Of course. We'll take care of her, don't worry," Jo tells her. We left my mother's place and went back t

Two weeks crawl on by, and the pain has yet to subside. There's a constant ache and heaviness in my chest that I can't seem to shake. I've not seen or spoken to Cole at all, nor did I have any desire to.I force myself to go outside to get some air. I feared I'd lose what little sanity I have left if I kept myself hauled up inside. I went for an appointment with my midwife to check everything is okay with the baby, and thankfully she's perfect, growing nicely. Well, she would, the amount of food Jo and Aimee keep shoving down my throat.On the thirteenth day, I got a visit from Cole's mother. I was surprised to see her standing at my door. "Hi, sweetheart.""Hi," I reply and step aside to let her in. "Come on in." I close the door and walk to the living room. Elaine looks me over, a deep sadness in her honey-coloured orbs, as she takes a seat on the sofa beside me."I've wanted to come and see you for a while, but Tristan told me to give you space." I stare a

"Mr Hoult?"I blink and look back when I hear someone knock and enter my office. I was lost in thought, standing at the floor-to-ceiling window staring at the bleak city before me. "Yes, Jessica?""I'm sorry, I did knock, but...""It's okay. What do you need?" I sigh, looking back at her, and she shifts uneasily, chewing on her bottom lip."The investors are here, and they're asking to speak to Shayla. I don't know what to tell them. They seem pretty upset." Jess informs me, and I sigh, pinching the bridge of my nose."Take them into the conference room and offer them refreshments. I'll be there in a few minutes," I instruct her, and she nods, leaving my office. I look out of the window again and wonder what the hell I'm going to tell these people.It seems Shayla has built quite a rapport with the investors to the projects we were working on that they're demanding to speak to her and no one else. I've lost a major account already this week

I was having a shitty day at work, couldn't focus on anything, and my head was hurting again, so I had Josh bring me home. A tiny part of me hoped I would catch Shayla when she was packing, but she wasn't there. It was just Aimee. I walk into the living room and saw the photo of Shayla and me that we had above our fireplace was on the floor ripped to bits. I sink to the ground and stare at the torn-up pieces of what used to be our wedding photo. Christ, what have I done to her? She must really despise me to shred our picture."Shay, please stop crying. Think about the baby. The doctor said no stress, remember." I hear Josh say. He was on the phone with her. I get up and move over to where he was in the kitchen. "He wouldn't." Josh sighs, rubbing his forehead as he paces back and forth, "He's just not himself right now. Yesterday, he had a bit of a breakdown at the hospital and admitted he's really struggling with everything. I was furious with him for hurting you, but I get w

"Tell me you love me, baby," I stare at Cole motionless when he presses his forehead to mine and whispers those words to me. I fought the tears that were threatening to fall when he slowly opens his eyes and looks at me."What?" I whisper, watching him as he gazes at me, his eyes searching mine for something. He said the words, but the look in his eyes wasn't the same as that night. The love wasn't there, and it pained me deeply that he remembers the night he told me he loves me for the first time, but there's no emotion behind his words. Cole pulls back and looks at me, bewildered."Uh, was that a... memory of ours?" He questions, and I nod silently, stepping away from him. Cole stands and takes hold of my arm and pulls me back to him again. I look up at him questioningly."Fill in the blanks. Please?" He says pleadingly, and I blink, my eyes already welling up.I shake my head."I can't," I answer, and he looks at me beseechingly. "You can't ask

"You did what?!" Aimee shouts, her blue eyes wide like saucers as she shoves popcorn in her mouth and chews excitedly like you do when you're watching a fascinating part in a film. "Tell me again...tell me again. I need to hear this word for word...slowly."I sigh with a smile shaking my head as I pull my hair up in a messy bun. After I got home, I told the girls about my exchange with the witch. "I am not explaining it all over again. I basically put her in her place and told her if she keeps pissing me off, I'll steal Cole back from her just out of spite.""Yes! That is my bitch right there!" Aimee exclaims, excitedly throwing her popcorn in the air, and it falls around her. "Oh, damn." She utters, looking at the mess she made.Jo and I laugh and throw the popcorn at her. "That was a long-time coming, Shay, and we're proud of you, baby girl." Jo praises me with a hug, and I smile, sighing."Heck yes, it was. Who the fuck does she think she is? Prissy li
