Mattheo’s POVHis body was thrown towards the waiting chair, where it fell apart. Everyone who saw it screamed in terror, including the nurses who had not expected such a commotion in such a quiet hospital.“You seem to have forgotten your position, Robert. Without me, you are nothing but trash.”His face was already battered, I added more blows until I heard the tragic sound of broken bones. Some of the guards separated the two of us after getting complaints from the frightened nurses. Robert, whose face was so disfigured, still managed to smile at me as the guards tried to lift his body.His lips were open to say something, but his voice was too small for me to hear. But I'm pretty sure he said something before his body was carried away by the emergency stretcher of the arriving health workers.The commotion had apparently reached Belle's room, which was almost tens of meters away from where our fight had taken place. With the IV still stuck in the back of her hand, she carried the
Belle Kensington POV“Congratulations, ma'am! Another baby boy!” Accompanied by the small whimpering sound of a figure choking on its first breath of air, there was a doctor holding the little baby that came out of my womb for the second time.The tiny figure, covered in amniotic fluid that soaked her frail body. So small, so fragile, yet so brave. My second premature baby was born into the world, healthy. The doctors checked if any of his limbs were incomplete. A common thing to do in premature births.“That's right, the baby was born perfectly,” said the doctor with the other doctor, in front of my struggling baby in their hands. “We can confirm he has complete fingers, eyes, and other perfect external limbs, ma'am. But further examination is needed to determine his internal organs.”My baby was separated from me without them giving me time to even look at her face. As weak as that baby had to be to be born into the world, even he was still not strong enough to be held in his mother
“No way...” My hands and feet were instantly weak. There was no way I couldn't have noticed her being that close. After all, why would he accompany me in labor? More than that, how could he go in and fool all the doctors!??“What does he want?” I asked. As soon as I imagined that there was another figure present in my delivery room without my knowledge, my whole body felt goosebumps with a strange sensation beyond measure. “That man, what did he want by coming to the room with you? Did he say something to you?”The detective shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't understand either. “But there was one message he gave me, ma'am. Luke Davis wants to meet with you tomorrow. As for the time and place, I'll let you know tomorrow after you've rested.”“No. Just tell him I'll meet him now,” I said. After hearing what he did, did I think I could rest in peace? The fatigue in my body instantly disappeared. I left this hospital bed to tread the cold floor. If a pair of detective's hands didn't g
Belle Kensington POV“Luke!” I couldn't believe what he was actually doing. So this is what the detective called me when he wanted to see me, with my baby as his prisoner!?“You're too much! My baby has nothing to do with this!” I snapped angrily, furiously. My energy that should have been spent after the minor surgery I'd just undergone, was filled to the brim with the wrath of a mother who'd had her child taken from her.On top of that, why did it have to be Luke!? Of all the bad people in this world, he's the one who should never have taken my baby! Who knows what's going through that crazy man's head!? He doesn't even hesitate to stab innocent people.“Calm down, Belle. You've just finished your surgery. I don't want to see you cut again for the second time, do I?” Very calmly, he approached me by pushing my baby in the glass box.I had never been this confused before. This situation was different from how I usually dealt with the horrors of Luke Davis. This time, I wasn't alone.
“I know!” she snapped angrily. Despite her apparent dislike, she took over my baby carriage as Luke had instructed her to. “You owe me a lot, Luke. Don't forget to help me out on the big day.”Their words ended there. Natalia took charge of my baby's affairs, and carried out the orders as expected. Luke knew I didn't trust either of them, so he handed me a cell phone and asked me to call the nurse who was supposed to take care of my baby, Raven.“Ah, ma'am. That's right, Raven is already in his room. We'll do the examination this afternoon. Don't worry, everything will be fine!” the nurse said happily.“Thank you...” I said, finally able to let out a sigh of relief. I couldn't believe that the same man had let my baby go so easily. What other plans would he come up with? Watching him who was usually so brutal be this calm, my heart couldn't calm down.“I'll give you a week to sort everything out,” those cold lips said. With the distance between us, I could feel that he was trying hard
Belle Kensington POVI woke up dry-eyed, unable to sleep at all for the past week. In my mind, I kept seeing Mattheo's disappointed face, the day he saw only one of his twins in the room.My mouth could only be perfectly sewn shut, flattened by an unspeakable secret. In front of the window of my hospital room, Luke Davis held one of my babies who was fast asleep. In his arms, the baby is very calm. A bottle of milk connected to his little lips looks so sweet from a distance.My tears fell to the pillow behind my head. The scene this morning, I should have seen from the shadow of a man who was very important to me, Mattheo, my ex-husband. I heard the news of his marriage to Natalia, my sister.Since that day, he disappeared from the hospital. He didn't even see our two babies anymore. I spent my days daydreaming, thinking about him. After marrying Natalia, he wouldn't be able to see me anymore. In other words, that day was my two babies' farewell day with their father.“Christ and Rave
Belle Kensington POV“Ng~” There was a baby's voice, right beside my ear that had just activated its function. A beautifully carved roof shaded my view, instead of the white roof I was used to seeing at the Mattheo family's hospital.A pair of very innocent blue eyes blinked at me. His tiny fingers nibbled on his toothless gums. There was only one, and I realized it too late. My body spontaneously woke up from the soft bed.My baby whimpered with cries, affected by the shock of my sudden awakening. A nanny burst into the room upon hearing the cries of Raven, my youngest twin. The maid picked him up and soothed her, taking him away from me.While I was still in disbelief. This house... how could I forget? This is Luke Davis' huge mansion. The first time he brought me here was during our engagement. Now, he's doing the same.“Looks like you're awake. You fainted for a long time too. I intended to call the doctor for you earlier,” A voice, sharp and smoky too. Faced with a body clad in b
Belle Kensington POV“My baby. Bring my baby right now,” I ordered the two babysitters. Both of them looked at each other with unsure expressions. Neither of them heeded my command. My two babies, still in their arms despite me being the mother.“What are you waiting for?” I snapped, getting annoyed. “I don't have time for all this nonsense. Give me my babies right now!” I screeched impatiently.“But, ma'am. We've been instructed to look after your baby while you're recovering. And you're in no condition to carry a pair of weak babies. They still need special care in this room,” replied a nurse with short hair, who disliked my arrival the most.“Did you forget your baby was born premature?” said another nurse. “We are nurses from Davis International Hospital, we have more knowledge than you. With all due respect, we ask you to calm down and let your baby stay here.”My teeth chattered with anger. The inability to argue with what they were saying was what was keeping me silent right no
Belle's POV“Nggg~” Raven whined in tears when I separated him from his soft pillow. Not much different from her brother, Christ, who had already cried when his deep sleep was awakened. I really couldn't bear to wake them up in their unhealthy state.'However, Mattheo is already in Japan. It's only a matter of time until he finds the location of this hospital and my nightmare will come true.' I reminded myself not to let my guard down for a second in this critical situation.“Forgive your mother, my dear. I'm sorry.” I repeatedly apologized to my two babies who had to become victims of their parents' problems. I had to do this now or never.While Robert was still talking to someone on his phone, while the hospital was still too quiet for the guards to find me. Once again, I had to leave everything behind for my two babies. I'm not sure I would have survived if I hadn't hurried now.As soon as I found out Mattheo had reached Japan, the stitches in my stomach were excruciating. My stoma
Natalia’s POVI never expected to get a surprise like this, Mattheo's coming to the hospital and seeing me alone had managed to make my heart beat.I never imagined that Mattheo would even give me another surprise that was even more shocking than the previous one, not only did it make me do heart exercises, but it almost made my heart fall out of place because I was so surprised to see Mattheo in front of my eyes when I was just a few steps away from getting into the car.It was even more shocking that he was waiting for me there, like he already knew what I was going to do after this. Mattheo, he couldn't possibly know that I was going to leave and escape through the back door of the hospital and he couldn't possibly know that I kept a car in the backyard of this hospital either, right?''So, what are you going to say again this time? What are you going to explain about everything that has happened this time, where are you going and what made you decide to escape from this hospital?'
Natalia’s POVWho would have thought, a few moments after the phone call with Ragen had been disconnected, the doctor came back into the hospital room and he again checked my condition, which was still lying weakly on the hospital bed even though it had been assisted by drugs and also an IV tube that was still attached to my wrist.I will not waste this good opportunity. I will ask the doctor if I can get out of the hospital right now, so that I can meet Mommy Ragen without getting suspicion from anyone, including Mattheo if he finds me out there again.Unfortunately what I hoped for didn't really come true, the doctor stuck to his decision of not allowing me to be discharged from the hospital. My body that was still weak and not fully healthy was used as an excuse to keep me here.But I also can't stay here like this, I have to go and see Ragen before she does something much worse, she could tell Mattheo and twist the facts so that Mattheo only hates me.No, I can't let that happen!
Natalia’s POV''Mattheo, can I talk to you outside? There's something I want to talk to you about,'' Robert said which made me turn my head, wondering to myself what Robert was going to talk to Mattheo about?Was he going to say something very important that I shouldn't know so Robert asked Mattheo to leave?Shit, why can't my brain think properly? Even if Robert asked Mattheo to talk outside together, I was sure that Robert wouldn't tell the truth. Yes, he is also the one who has always helped me, if what I hid from Mattheo was revealed, it would also drag his name and Robert would not do that, I'm sure.Never mind, I should just trust him for now. Trying to convince myself that Robert will definitely not do anything wrong, he must have thought about it and considered it carefully before doing something.''Talking together? What do you want to tell me, is there something important?''Robert without hesitation immediately nodded to confirm what Mattheo had questioned, confirming that
Natalia’s POV''Why does your face look so pale after seeing me? Your reaction is so exaggerated, it's like you're seeing a ghost.'' Mattheo mocking me again while I was still trying to convince myself that what I was seeing was real, that Mattheo's presence in front of my eyes was not a hallucination due to the effects of the medicine I had taken.But his coming to the hospital and visiting me was real.He was really in front of me and was even looking at me intently, my palms were getting wet when I saw the way Mattheo was looking at me. With my nerves getting the better of me, I tried to act casual despite the fact that my heart was almost out of place.I'm afraid that Mattheo knows the truth about me, I'm afraid that he knows what I'm hiding from him, and I'm also afraid that Mattheo knows what makes me here now.This stress that I'm feeling, I'm sure it has something to do with Mommy Ragen's request that told and forced me to follow her will, assist her to seize custody of both M
Natalia’s POVI never thought that things would never go as smoothly as Mommy Ragen wanted, the process of taking custody of the child that she wanted was not as easy as imagined.'There was too much drama to be done, too many lies that needed to be prepared in order to get everything that Mommy Ragen wanted.'However, the fire of desire that has been burning so big inside her makes she completely unadvised in any way, she still imposes her will and insists on doing everything possible so that her goal can be achieved immediately.Even I could only stay silent and pensive staring in disbelief at her in front of there who was still talking to the Lawyer to discuss what they would do next so that the custody of Belle's two children could fall into the hands of her grandmother who was none other than Ragen.I did not expect that her ambition to control all the assets inherited to the two babies would make her desperate to do anything, even to the point of trying to seize the custody of B
Ragen’s POV''Robert, no matter what happens. I hope you will keep your mouth shut from everyone, I don't want all this to leak out to others and put me in danger. Mommy would immediately suspect me if what she is planning to do is leaked to others, you want to help me right?''Robert immediately nodded his head, agreeing to what Natalia said to hide everything he knew. To keep everyone's mouth shut so that what was happening here wouldn't leak out.''Of course, you don't have to worry about me leaking it. I will definitely keep my mouth shut with everything that has happened, just relax.'' he reassured Natalia and managed to make her smile with relief, at least Robert could be trusted for now.''That's good, for the time being, we should hide everything that happened from everyone, especially Mattheo, he shouldn't know what his mother is planning. I myself am also reluctant to get involved with that oldman madness, I don't know what the end will be, but I can guess that things will d
Ragen’s POVFrom where I was sitting, I could see Natalia shaking her head, looking very distrustful of me who dared to go against the law to get what I wanted.Of course I dare because it's not the law that I will fight against that I have in mind, but the property that will belong to Belle's two children that will also belong to me if I manage to get custody of the two children.Whatever she thinks, I don't care what she thinks here either, I'm not asking for her opinion. But I'm just forcing her and the lawyer in front of me right now to do what I want.Yes, not just the lawyer. But Natalia must also comply with what I want, whatever I tell her, she must obey!''Why are you shaking your head like that, Natalia? What are you thinking?'' I asked her, furious too because more and more Natalia seemed very out of line with my mindset.''Nothing, Mom. Just.. I think I need to go to the restroom first, You just continue the conversation with Mr. lawyer.''Natalia immediately rose to her f
Ragen’s POV''Natalia, I only asked you to accompany me to the legal counsel. Why are you so scared of being found out by Mattheo? After all as long as we keep quiet and don't tell anyone then it will all be safe right, or do you really want me to do something to you first so that you will listen to what I say and make you want to obey my orders?''I stared at Natalia's two eyeballs so intently, giving off an intimidating aura that was so strong as to pressure Natalia and make her give up on her initial decision to refuse my orders.“Please, I can’t do this,” She’s still rejecting me.“You certainly know what I mean, Natalia. It's not a difficult thing to influence Mattheo to hate you by bringing up his children's names, I can do that if you continue to refuse me. Ah, how about I tell Mattheo that you secretly want to harm his children?''Natalia looked surprised when I suddenly turned my head to look at her, I also saw her body jumped up when I suddenly turned my head and looked at h
