Chapter 92Celine Coleman POVAfter I left Bryant's house, I couldn't count how many missed calls I'd gotten from Mr. Nathan, Nolan, Madam Leila, and of course, Bryant wasn't exempted from it, but I never answered any of their calls because I didn't have plans of going back to Bryant. He didn't deserve me.I didn't have much money on me after I refunded Mr. Miles the money he spent that night that Jake got into trouble, and the one he spent at the hospital. Although he asked me not to refund, but I insisted. I didn't want to owe him anything although I still owed him for doing me a favor of saving my brother and helping me take him to the hospital. I stayed at the hotel to clear my head and think of what to do next, but even after three days, I couldn't still think about anything and I was already running out of time. My money would soon expire here, and I would have to move out then. I might end up in the street after because I didn't have anywhere else to go, but at least I needed

Chapter 93Celine Coleman POV"Mr. Miles?" I called surprisingly, and he smiled at me."You are welcome, Ms. Celine. We meet again," He smiled at me, but nothing was funny so there was no reason to smile at him. Was he stalking me?"What are you doing here?" I asked him confusingly as I walked to stand across from him, and he shrugged."I'm the manager here," He replied to me as he shrugged again, but it didn't make any sense to me, so I could only scoff."What do you mean you are...""I work as a manager here. It's a long story. Why are you here, by the way?" He asked me after he dismissed my question, but I wasn't going to let him off the hook so easily. I needed to know who he was, and why he seemed to be following me around. Did he submit my details to these people? I wanted to give that a thought, but it didn't make any sense considering that he didn't have my CV."You submitted your documents to him back in Bryant's company," My subconscious mind reminded me, and I knotted my ey

Chapter 94"What do you mean you still can't find her?" Bryant snapped angrily as he slammed his hands on the desk. He had sent some of his palace guards to go find Celine and they were here now, telling him that they could not find her."Forgive me, Alpha...""Get out... Just get out!" He snapped at the guard, and he bowed before he walked away, and Bryant sank his fingers into his hair. He grabbed his hair and slowly pulled it. "What have you done, Bryant... What have you done?" He whispered as he slowly ruffled his hair. He thought he could take the pain, but it was becoming more unbearable for him. Not having Celine beside him had messed up his head, and he couldn't help but regret his action. He shouldn't have asked for a divorce.He reached for his phone and dialed her number again, but this time, it turned out that she had blocked him. 'Can you please answer your call? I need to talk to you''Are you safe?''I'm not mad at you anymore. We can talk about this. Can you please c

Chapter 95Celine Coleman POVThe sound of my blaring alarm pulled me out of my deep slumber, and even though I still felt tired and sleepy, I knew I needed to get out of bed and get ready for work. Sitting up on the bed, I reached for my phone tiredly and unlocked it. Furthermore, I switched on the data connection, and immediately, tons of messages popped up on my phone. Even though some of the texts were from unfamiliar numbers, I knew that it was Bryant. Yes, I couldn't deny that I missed him so much and desperately wanted to talk to him, or even see him, but then, I couldn't be with someone who doesn't have the slightest trust in me.Pushing all my thoughts away, I stood up tiredly from bed and dragged myself into the bathroom, had a long and relaxing bath, and soon got ready for work.My phone beeped just when I was about to leave the hotel room, and I checked to see a text from Mr. Miles.'Should I pick you up on my way to work? I'm just about to leave my house' I read through

Chapter 96Celine Coleman POVFor the umpteenth time, I glanced over to the supposed CEO's office, wondering what the fuck a teenager knows about handling a whole big firm like this, but on second thought, I shouldn't underestimate anyone. The CEO wouldn't have put her there if she was not capable of doing her thing.The sound of the office ringing telephone caught my attention, and I picked it up."This is Celine Coleman, speaking from...""It's me. Come inside," I looked at her office when I heard her voice, and I found her holding the telephone to her ear."I'll be there shortly, ma'am," And with that, I dropped the phone, stood up, and walked over to the door. I knocked on it and when she ushered me inside, I pushed the door open and walked inside."You called for me, ma'am,""Just call me Claire. I'm not the CEO," She shrugged, and I slowly nodded. My kid brother would be of the same age as her or even older, so that did justice to it."Do you need anything?" I asked her, and she

Chapter 97Three days laterCeline Coleman POVI couldn't be more excited that I didn't end up in the street. Who knows what would've happened if I had not found the place? Maybe I would really have ended up on the street. After I went to check out the house, I had this feeling that the rent would be expensive, but I was stunned when Claire told me the amount. I liked the house, and I could finally move in now.I carefully arranged my clothes inside my suitcase and when I was sure that I had packed everything, I left the hotel room and headed to the reception where I dropped the keys and finally left the hotel.I stood at the side of the road minutes after I left the hotel, waiting for a cab which didn't take much time before I got one."Shantel estate," I said to the cab man."Fifty bucks," He said to me, and I nodded."Open your trunk, please. I need to keep this there," I said to him, referring to my suitcase. He pressed a button in his car and the trunk opened. I helped my bag in

Chapter 98"You need to comport yourself, Bryant. No matter what Miles says to you later, you can't get angry... Don't do something stupid," Nolan said to Bryant for the umpteenth time."You've said that like a million times already. There is no need to repeat yourself," Bryant rolled his eyes as he looked out of the car window. After a series of research, Nolan was finally able to get Miles's address, and they were parked in front of his house, waiting for him. They'd been there for over thirty minutes and yet Miles was not home yet."Are you sure he is coming home today?" Nolan asked after another ten minutes passed and there was still no sign of Miles."We need to wait for him," Bryant insisted, and Nolan knew at that moment that he didn't have a choice but to wait up for Miles.Seconds ticked into minutes, and another fifteen minutes passed before they finally spotted Miles's car approaching the gate.

Chapter 99Celine Coleman POVI tried to hold back my tears as I stared at my reflection in the mirror, but it was really hard to do. I didn't come this far to get a divorce, I didn't stick around Bryant all this while just to end up getting separated from him, but what could I do when this seemed to be our fate?The sound of the knock on my door caught my attention, followed by Claire's voice."Ms. Celine... Can I come inside?" She asked from outside, and I quickly wiped my tears and cleared my throat."Ms. Celine... Are you there?" She knocked again."Hmm... Come in," The door opened almost immediately, and she stuck her head inside with that usual big and happy smile on her face. She finally walked inside."Are you going somewhere?" She asked as she stared at me from head to my toes, and back to my face, wearing a confused expression on her face."Hmm... I need to step out briefly. I'll be back shortly," I replied to her, and she pouted her lips."I wanted us to have dinner togethe

Chapter 112EpilogueAs Celine sat on the edge of the bed, staring at a picture frame of her family which had her Mom, Claire, Jake, Bryant, and herself in it, she couldn't help but smile excitedly. This was the kind of family she had always prayed for. The kind of life she had always prayed to her maker for. Being with her family and getting married to a loving man. She couldn't be more than glad that her prayers were all answered.The bathroom door opened, and Bryant wheeled himself into the room. He had a white towel wrapped around his waist and his body dripping wet. He had just showered. He paused and smiled when he saw his beautiful wife seated on the bed."Is the baby kicking you?" He asked with a sweet smile on his face, and Celine looked from the picture to him."Not really... I'm just admiring us here... We look so good together," She looked at him and smiled."Right from the day I set my eyes on you, I knew we were going to look perfect together," He uttered as he wheeled h

Chapter 111A few days laterCeline Coleman POVI stood on the balcony of Bryant's room and stared up into space. A lot has happened over the last one week since I met my mom after many years. Even though I wasn't so mad at her, I couldn't still bring myself to forgive and accept her back into my life. Not after everything we had passed through without her here. Jake met her also, but he wasn't ready to forgive her, just as I am. I spoke with Bryant about Jake over the week and he had forgiven him for everything he had done. I asked Jake to move in with us, but he said he had something to take care of before that, so I had to respect his decision."It's cold out here... You should go back inside," I heard Bryant's voice, and I turned to find him seated in his wheelchair. He was wearing pajamas, probably ready to go to bed. "Hmm... Just getting fresh air. Will go back inside soon," I replied to him, and he wheeled himself to me. "Babe..." He held my hand and squeezed it gently."I w

Chapter 110Celine ColemanToo many thoughts paraded my mind as the cab I boarded drove down the road, heading to Claire's apartment. I knew something was wrong somewhere because she didn't sound fine, but I could only find out about it if I went to her house, yeah? As much as I wanted to stay calm, my curiosity was eating me up every damn second and I ended up being tensed.It felt like the drive was slow even though it wasn't. I was desperate to get home early and meet her Mom. I was desperate to see her and finally know who she was."Can you drive faster, please?" I urged the driver when he slowed down the cab."There is a heavy traffic jam ahead," He replied to me, and I couldn't help but feel frustrated. Not today, please."Calm down, Celine. She's not running away. You will meet her even if you go there late," My subconscious mind reminded me, but it was just difficult to listen.We ended up spending fifteen minutes in the traffic jam before we were able to get out of it.

Chapter 109Celine Coleman POVIt was finally morning and the day Claire had told me her Mom would be back.The aroma coming from the kitchen welcomed me as I descended the staircase after I left my room. My mouth salivated and my stomach grumbled hungrily, so I left for the kitchen."You are awake? I didn't want to wake you up. Good morning. Did you sleep well?" She looked at me and smiled."Good morning. Yes, I did. What about you?" I pulled the refrigerator open and brought out a bottle of water."I did," She replied to me."What are you making?" I asked as I uncapped the bottle and drank some water from it."Breakfast. It's a surprise. Trust the process," She winked at me, and I smiled."So, have you called your mom yet? What time is she coming back?" I asked curiously after I put back the bottle inside the refrigerator."Are you so desperate to move out?" She asked sadly, but I shook my head."Far from that... I'm just concerned," I shrugged, leaning against the counter."I was j

Chapter 108Celine Coleman POV"Are you feeling sick? Do you need to go to the hospital?" I asked Claire after I pulled the car over at the parking lot in her apartment, but she slowly shook her head. We were supposed to go for a walk after work, but she was so dull that we only did it briefly and she asked us to come home instead. She couldn't even drive, so I had to do it myself."I'm fine. I just need to get some rest, and I'll be fine then," She replied to me as she removed her seatbelt, pushed the door open, and stepped out of the car. I did the same and alighted from the car too.I watched as she dragged herself toward the entrance, and by the time I got to the living room after she walked inside, I found her already seated on the couch. She looked like she had worked her ass off all day and was going to die anytime soon."Do you need anything? Should I get you a glass of water?" I went to sit beside her on the couch and held her hand."No," She replied to me, and I briefly sigh

Chapter 107Celine Coleman POV'I don't think I'm ready to be a father... I'm scared, Celine. I don't know if I'll be able to' Those words replayed in my head for the umpteenth time as I sat behind my desk in my office. I have been trying to concentrate all day since I came to the office, but my head has been messed up and I haven't been able to think straight. A part of me was disappointed when he said that, but another part of me tried to understand him. "It's not something to be mad about, Celine. You can help him overcome it," I said to myself and breathed in and out before I resumed work.The office telephone started to ring and I picked it up."Hello! This is...""Come to my office, Ms. Celine," Claire said from the other end, and the call disconnected immediately.I dropped the phone, stood up, and proceeded to her office to hear her out."You asked to see me, ma'am," I said to her politely, and she rolled her eyes."I told you to drop the formality.

Chapter 106Celine Coleman POVI rubbed my stomach gently, unable to hold back my smile as the cabby drove down the road. It was still hard to believe that I was pregnant. The thought of it made me feel like I was on top of the world. It just felt so good."We are here, ma'am," The cabby's voice pulled me back to reality, and that was when the realization dawned on me that he was already parked in front of Bryant's house."Thank you," I muttered as I pushed the car door open and stepped out of the car. I paid him and he zoomed off.As I stood in front of the house, I held my handbag tightly and bit my bottom lip. A part of me was eager to tell Bryant about the good news, but another part of me wanted me to wait. Bryant would ask me to move in immediately if he found out about the pregnancy now, and I still needed three days to do my confirmation before I leave Claire's house."Just three days... Just three days, and you'll tell him. You have to keep it for now," I said to myself and t

Chapter 105Celine Coleman POV'The doctor will be with you shortly. He is busy' One of the nurses had said to me earlier when I just arrived at the hospital, and here I was for the past thirty minutes, still waiting for the doctor. I was almost losing it, but I tried to understand the nature of their job and be patient. Maybe there were too many patients to attend to today.I touched my forehead for the umpteenth time and winced silently as waves of pain spurred through me. What could've caused this overnight? I asked myself, but there wasn't any answer I could provide for it, so I had to wait for the doctor.My phone started to ring, and Bryant's name was displayed on the screen. I swiped the answer button."Hey, babe," His calm, deep, yet soothing voice came through the phone, and I smiled."Hey,""I'm sorry I'm just calling you now. I woke up quite late. Did you sleep well?""It's fine, I understand. And yes, I slept well," I replied to him."Are you coming over today?" He asked."

Chapter 104Celine Coleman POV"Are you seeing someone?" Claire said out of the blue moon, and I choked on my food and started coughing."Why are you choking? I only asked a question," She clicked her tongue as she handed me a glass of water, and I drank from it."How did you know that?" I looked at her and asked, but her face beamed with smiles instead."Are you really seeing someone? Who is he? Is he cute? I like cute guys, so, is he cute?" She bombarded me with questions as she looked at me, desperate for answers."Ugh! You are so..." I paused and shook my head, not knowing what to say."Come on, tell me everything. Who is he?" She asked me, and I rolled my eyes. "He's just a random guy... Yeah, just someone I met some time ago," I replied to her, and she raised her eyebrows. I felt guilty for lying to her, but I couldn't just start telling her everything when I didn't even know what they were after, right?"Has it been long since you two have been together?" She asked again, and
