Carla Rodriguez Black,A few weeks after the operation…As I diligently tended to Ethan's surgical incision in our opulent penthouse, the tranquility of the moment was shattered by a sudden wave of nausea crashing over me. I got up from the chair I sat in and staggered backward, my hand instinctively cradling my stomach, feeling lightheadedness washing over me like a tidal wave. Panic started to rise within me. Something was not right."Baby, are you okay?" Ethan asked."Ethan," I managed to utter, my voice trembling, "Something's wrong. I don't feel well."Ethan's worried eyes immediately filled with concern as he swiftly rose from the couch, rushing to my side. "Carla, what happened? Should I call the doctor?" He put his palm on my forehead as if he wanted to take my temperature.Nodding weakly, I closed my eyes for a moment, trying to steady myself. "Yes, please. I don't know what's happening to me but my body suddenly feels drained of energy.""Maybe it's because of the blood you

Ethan Black,A few days later,Location: Black industries.I sat at my desk, engrossed in the countless reports scattered all around me. The luxurious office, adorned with tasteful artwork and polished furniture, seemed to fade away as I delved deeper into the number of reports I had to go through because of my leave of absence from the company. I was slowly fitting back in my seat of becoming the undisputed CEO of Blacks Industries, a successful billionaire drowning in responsibilities, that's who I was.Everything else had to come second in my life.As the late afternoon sun peered through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting a warm glow over the room, my mind wrestled with the never-ending demands of the corporate world. It was in this whirlwind of thoughts that a sudden knock at my office door caught my attention."Come in," I called, my voice tinged with annoyance at the interruption, I briefly looked up to see who was disturbing me even after I strictly told Ava no visitors to

Ethan Black.An hour later,My heart pounded as I stormed into my luxurious penthouse, the heavy doors to the elevator closing behind me. I needed to find Carla and finally disclose the truth that I had been hiding from her for far too long and this was all thanks to the sudden interest from Crystal's attempt to seduce me, had it urged me to reveal the sinister web that I had entangled her in."Carla!" I called out, my voice echoing through the expansive hallway. But instead of her familiar face, I was met with the warm smile of Victoria."Mr. Black, you're back," Victoria greeted me, surprise evident in her eyes. "Mrs. Black is in your office, finishing up with her online class.""Okay, thanks," I answered back, my anxiety heightened as I rushed towards my office, my mind racing with the weight of my secret.

Carla Rodriguez Hall.Location: New York Presbyterian Hospital.Seated in the doctor's office, for the hundredth time in one month, Richard held on to my hand in anticipation of the doctor's results.It had been over two minutes of waiting, but it felt like an eternity."Babe, why is she taking so long?" I tapped the heel of my velvet brown boyfriend shoe while I looked up at the modern classical wall clock."Patience honey, I have a good feeling about today. Today is our lucky day." He answered back in a high-pitched cocky voice."I pray so." I bit my bottom lip while my eyes wandered around the room.Suddenly the door creaked on the hinges as it opened then Doctor Sue confidently strolled in with a warm smile. She walked around her office desk with her stethoscope clasped in her hands."Good afternoon Mr and Mrs Hall, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting, but you know these things take time." She comfortably sat down in her chair and then placed the stethoscope on her neatly arranged de

Carla Rodriguez Hall.Our drive home was longer than usual as I and Richard kept to ourselves in thought.The doctor's ugly words lingered in my mind as the cold autumn wind scratched my skin.Whom did I offend to receive such hush punishment from God? I heaved a long sigh while looking at the busy streets of New York."That doctor is just stupid and doesn't know what she is talking about." Richard finally dragged his hand on my thigh and squeezed gently as though his words would make me feel better… I glanced at his hand and did not realize that I was crying until a tear splashed on his arm."Oh honey, don't cry." He slowed down the speeding car and rubbed off the tears on my cheek without stopping the car. "God will bless us with a bundle of joy sooner than you know it." He smiled."But when?" More warm tears silently trickled down my cheeks as I sniffed up the little buggers trying to escape my nostrils."Soon honey." He said with a reassuring gaze." Don't worry, I will put a baby

Carla Rodriguez Hall.Location: Hudson Beach mini-mart.The next day was Saturday and that was our stock-up day. For both home and the clinic, we had to make sure we bought all that was needed for the coming week. Be it food, groceries, medicines, and any other medical equipment the vet needed, we had to do it all on that one day, because Saturday was considered to be a less busy day at the vet."Honey, did you see sister Margaret's new creasted gecko?" Richard chortled while picking up a huge sack of dog food and placing it in our trolley."No babe, I only saw her walking out of the clinic." I stared at him with an inquisitive stare. I worked as a secretary part-time at the clinic when it was overwhelmed by a shortage of staff."You should have seen it, honey." He pushed back his glasses on the top of his nose and took control of the trolley. "That pale-looking critter was begging for some sun rays to tan its body." His joke then made me laugh so hard I felt like I peed my pants a l

Carla Rodriguez Black,The next afternoon at the hospital…The sterile scent of antiseptic filled the air, suffocating my senses as I stood outside the forbidding double doors of the operating room. My heart pounded wildly, trapped within the confines of my chest, while my mind raced with fear and anxiety. The fate of my beloved husband, Ethan, hung in the balance, teetering between life and death, on the precipice of a monumental decision."Good morning Carla," Sylvia stormed into the private waiting room I was waiting for Ethan… her normal elegant demeanor vanished. "Has the operation started already?" She asked with a pale face."Yes," I murmured."Oh dear, the New York traffic was hell, that's why I'm late." She said."It's okay, Ethan told me to tell you that he loves you and can't wait to see you after the operation." I delivered Ethan's last words to his mother and she whimpered."My poor boy." She flickered her eyes rapidly as she avoided dropping a tear."He will be fine" I r

It was my first time on such an extravagant boat, and I savored the moment, knowing it would be a night to remember.The evening sky, painted in hues of orange and pink, created a breathtaking backdrop as I made my way towards Ethan, who stood near the edge of the deck, a gentle smile playing on his lips. His presence was comforting, and my nerves began to settle as I approached him."Wow, Ethan, this yacht is incredible!" I exclaimed, my voice filled with awe. I couldn't help but feel a rush of gratitude for the opportunity to experience such splendor alongside a man I was growing to care deeply for.Ethan chuckled, his warm laughter filli

Carla Rodriguez Black,"Ethan, she is asking about your health and not the mess we have created," I whispered to him, and for a moment he seemed dumbfounded by the chaos that lay in front of him.Then his face lit up like what I said made sense to him. " Oh, shit" he clasped his exposed buttocks with crimson cheeks. "Mother, I strictly told the doctor not to worry you with my business because I have already scheduled an operation for this week…" he spoke calmly and Sylvia raised her perfectly drawn eyebrow."Umh." She murmured with a stern poise." Besides it's the job of my wife to worry about me now and not you." He responded firmly and I gasped with shock.So he does want me to worry about his welfare…. I sneered silently while glaring at him.Mrs. Black frowned briefly but regained her composure, "I see," she replied, her voice icy. "I suppose I should've called before coming over. Clearly, I've interrupted something... intimate." She added.Ethan's grip on my arm tightened, a pro

Carla Rodriguez Black,A few minutes later,I'm a millionaire, married to a billionaire!I gasped as I peeked at my phone for the hundredth time, just to make sure the money Ethan sent me was still in my account and real.Thank you, God. Finally, I can say my life was getting back on track. I cringed my eyes shut as the golden sun began its descent, casting an enchanting hue over the city skyline. I sighed softly as I found myself standing on the balcony of the penthouse. My heart fluttered with anticipation of what my future held as a sense of excitement tingled through my veins. My contractual marriage had turned out to be a blessing in disguise after all.A chilly breeze embraced my skin as I only wore Ethan's shirt after the sexcapade we had again, but I was too delighted to feel the cold breeze clung to my skin. I grinned while looking down at the busy streets of New York."Hey, beautiful." Ethan wrapped his hands across my waist and kissed my neck softly. "It's getting chilly,
