Horrid call

Nicole's pov.

"Are you sure ma'am?" The man asked me and right before I could respond, Zane interrupted.

"Of course, we'll discuss this with other executives" He replied, his eyes stuck on me.

"Alright then. I'll quickly have the money transfered to the company's account...".

I rolled my eyes at Zane and took the bottle of water before me. I uncapped it and briefly drank from it before keeping it down. I looked down back to rubbing my fingers and the next time I ever paid attention to them was when the meeting was declared over. Great!

"Really, Nicole?? Do you value your life at all? Why would you speak when your opinion wasn't needed" Zane scolded as we went back to the car

"I'm hungry. Let's eat first and then, I'll tell you why I opened my big mouth" I stated and he scoffed.

"Your mouth is not big at all" He chipped in and I sighed going into the car without his help.

"I just want to eat something oily and at the same time light. Probably, chicken wings. Let's go to my favorite restaurant, shall we?" I said mimicking his usual words 'shall we?'

"Yeah, sure. Let's just eat and forget that you almost made the company loose three million" He sarcastically agreed before shutting the door ruefully.

I snickered hiding my lips with my hands. It's been a while since I saw Zane all mad and furious. He's always pretending he was happy whenever he's annoyed but seems like he can't control this case.

In no time, he had gotten into the driver's seat and revised the car fervently leaving the surrounding.

"So, what are you planning on investing with this month's salary?" I asked looking out the window.

"Investing?? Why the heck would I want to invest with my pay?" He asked gazing through the rare view mirror.

"Come on, Zane. Don't tell me you don't want to own multinational companies like my husband. I thought you would be working towards it by now" I replied and he shook his head negatively.

"I don't think that's what I need right now. I'm gonna be loyal to my boss till I get a family of my own. You see?" He smirked.

"Yeah, a family you're gonna neglect for business trips and meetings. I don't know what's wrong with some men. They never have enough" I muttered under my breath.

After a long silence, I looked up to discover we were now In front of a beautiful restaurant.

"We can't spend too much time here. I need to get you home, alright?" He said removing his seatbelt while I ignored him.

I was back at my lonely house. A bit tired but happy with how the day went by so quickly. Soon, I'll be through with this task.

The task of being all alone with nothing to do. Soon, it'll just be me and my child keeping each other company. Damon can go to Mars for all I care.

I bid Zane off as he started the car. I knew he would wait till I enter the house but I still stood there just to piss him off a bit.

He frowned at me and I sighed giving up on my aim. I turned around and scuttled into the house.

The nanny was still around and was cleaning up the house when I walked past.

I have two things to do right now, eat more and sleep but I have to remove this huge dress at once. I was about to get on the stairs when I heard a car horning outside.

That must be Zane!

I hurried back to the door and met up with him.

"What's wrong?" I asked curiously.

He cleared his throat and put his two hands at his back.

"Go to bed on time and have everything in your room arranged. I have a feeling your husband will be back tomorrow" He replied and I breathed out.

"Really? Thanks for informing me, bye" I said again and he waited till I shut the door before leaving.

Now I have to walk through here again???

He should have just called.

It's not like I should fear Damon because he's coming over.

The maid was holding her bag and I guessed she was done cleaning.

"I'm done, ma'am. I'll have to leave now" She said and I sighed tiredly.

"Can't you stay a little longer?..." I muttered and she released a light smile.

"I wish I can but I have to pick the kids from school. I'm really sorry" She replied pitifully.

"It's alright. I'll see you tomorrow" I bid and she thanked me before heading to the door.

I left for the stairs slowly.

I woke up from a short nap upon hearing the sound of my phone began ringing loudly. I sluggishly looked into it and saw Damon at the caller ID.

Here comes trouble.

I picked the call after a brief hesitation and his voice came up.

"Nicole, pick out a good outfit because immediately I come back tomorrow, we are both going to see the doctor and you'll be in big trouble if you're not eating right. Sleep well and goodnight" He said in one breath and my jaw dropped.

"Whatever. Till tomorrow" I replied and tried hanging up but he was fast to disconnect right before I could.

Huff! I need to improve my hanging up skills. He keeps beating me to it every time.

His muscles wasn't so tensed as it was earlier.Goodness gracious.I feebly turned to the bodyguard who wore a worried and quivering look on his face."You have your job back. He was just angry" I stated and he heaved a sigh of relief."Thank you so much, ma'am and I'm really sorry" He apologized bowing and taking steps out of the office."Thank you, sir.

He asked like I should have opened up immediately he revealed what was in his mind."You'll have to beg me" I said rolling my eyes.His lips perked up and he let out a sardonic scoff.He only bargained for the child.

Who would want to bring me down this way?Different questions went on in my mind as I walked to the door.

Just Zane” I corrected walking past her.She chuckled and slammed the door but not too loud.I bumped into Nicole on my way to Damon’s private office and our foreheads practically jammed.“Gosh!

I was furious.I just want my child. I just want it alive and healthy. I’m not gonna be like my real father who neglected his duties.Who tossed my pregnant mother aside and let her stay out in the cold.I’m gonna be a better father. That’s a promise I’ve made to my unborn children.

    Nicole's pov.Zane returned after a long time and I was angry that he came empty handed.What happened to the popcorn and lollipop??"They've run out of popcorn. We were asked to come back later" He said and sat beside me."You don't look so happy like you were before. Are...Are you bored?" I asked worriedly."I just feel like I should get you home. You need to rest from all the laughing and talking--""I'm not fragile for peace sake! I'm just like every normal pregnant lady out there" I rasped holding tight on the chair handles."You're not normal. You caused our company to get four instead of five million. Luckily, no one else knows about this except those foreigners" He muttered and I rolled my eyes."You're right. I'm feeling quite sleepy" I yawned stretching my hands in the air.He chuckled as we got up together and exit the cinema.

I can't believe she still looks the same after a few months of not setting my eyes on her.I gently shut the door and escorted her to the front room where we sat on separate sofas."Do you want anything?" I asked studying the way she looked around the house."No. I'm fine. OMG. Look at you! All big and beautiful" She said and I rolled my eyes."Like, you care. Ever since I got married to Damon, you've never actually called me unless I call you. I've been trying to reach you in some occasions but you don't pick up. I know you're disappointed in me for getting pregnant at that party, but I thought you didn't need to keep more malice" I blunted caring less about how she would take the truth."It's not really like that----""Or is it because

I could see her from aside."Good morning" Neera said sounding pretty serious."How may I help you?" She further asked.The nanny looked around wearing a confused look."Isn't this the Waltons?"
