I wanted to confirm if you are around.” he said politely. Straining to listen to his conversation with the doctor but the only thing I got to hear was, “Okay, Alright sir, we are on our way.” Smiling at me, he reconfirmed, “Are you ready for this Ave? You know we can always leave. Then you can go on and live your life the way you want to.” Sighing, I replied for the third time, “Jamal I'm ready I already gave you my word, and I'm not going back on it. Let's get this test done.” He looked at me softly before leading the way, and we arrived at a sophisticated office on the third floor. Thankfully there was an elevator so it helped with the fatigue I was already experiencing. Jamal knocked on the door once before turning the door knob. A middle-aged man was sitting behind his PC with a cup of coffee on his table, immediately he saw Jamal,

Liam’s POVMy alarm blared on my phone, searching carefully around my pillow I found the mobile phone and turned it off. Exhaling sharply I got up from bed and moved towards the bathroom to take a leak, I resolved to take a quick bath. Staring at the mirror while I shaved I realized in two days I looked way older than my actual age, Laura’s gimmicks were seriously getting to me. Brushing the sad thought aside, I decided to focus on my life now since I closed one of the biggest deals in my career and everything was working smoothly. I chose to stay positive. After I was through shaving I washed up and left the bathroom with my favorite towel wrapped around my waist. Staring at myself in the mirror I loved what I saw, there was no need to look defeated when I was born to be a winner. “You are in control of your life Liam Livingstone, no one is going to take that away from you.” I said looking at my reflection in the mirror. I applied some cologne after I got dressed. Likewise, I re

Avery’s POVEmma’s driver pulled the car into Liam’s Mansion, immediately Maria rushed out of the mansion with two other maids to help me with my suitcase. I held my purse fully aware that the pregnancy result was tucked away neatly inside, “Welcome back my lady, I missed you so much.” Beaming I retorted, “Thank you, Maria, I missed you too, How have you been?” “I have been a little bored without you around, but I'm fine now. Let's go inside. I made your favorite, Pasta and tomato sauce.” her smile was enchanting. It felt good to be back at home. Walking briskly into the mansion we climbed the stairs heading straight to my room. Shockingly my heartbeat increased when I walked past Liam’s study. This question kept ringing in my heart. What would be his reaction towards me now that I'm no longer useful to him? “Thank you, Maria, I got something for you. When I'm done taking a warm bath and arranging my clothes I would come downstairs with the stuff I got. Is Liam at home?” I asked c

Avery’s POVStanding up abruptly, Maria bowed slightly before walking out of my room, Liam’s countenance was not so good. He looked a little stressed out probably from work or personal issues. “Good afternoon Liam, Welcome home.” I said calmly while adjusting myself on the bed. I felt a slight discomfort in my lower abdomen, looking at me squarely he replied, “You don't look so bad, it seems like your trip to Paris made you look a lot better which is good. So how was your trip?” I was shocked at first when he inquired, but I quickly snapped out of it, “It was good, Emma chose the best materials, and she said to inform you that your closet would be ready in two days.” I replied briefly since I wasn’t comfortable being around him. It felt so weird being in the same space with someone this toxic when I spent more than three days with Jamal. Suddenly he asked, “Why is your scarf not tied around your neck? Did you go on and on blabbing about everything you go through in the marriage to

It was only done for my selfish interest, but then it turned out to work for Avery’s good. Sighing I tossed around on my bed, I tried to sleep, but then I could not. I had a terrible nightmare again about Avery’s mom. Since that day I went to the hospital and found her room empty, I've continually experienced this horrible nightmare. Wiping off the beads of sweat that formed on my forehead I reached for my phone, scrolling through the phone I searched for a private detective's number. I sent a message requesting a detailed explanation of his findings in the last month. Since no one knew about it and Avery had been obeying my every command I decided to keep the secret of her mom’s disappearance, but then my grandmother just had to mention it in the presence of my grandfather. I know Avery mu

Avery’s POVMy health was slowly deteriorating, and I found it difficult to consume anything since my morning sickness suddenly grew worse. “Baby, Don’t you want mummy to eat?” I whispered while stroking my stomach. Suddenly, there was a soft knock on my door, I stood up from my bed and unlocked the door for Maria. I started locking my door since Laura walked into my room two days ago to call me names and ridicule me. For a week now she has been constantly visiting Liam, and they have not stopped making me look like a loser, my mind, and resolve had grown stronger to leave Liam. I was just trying to develop a good plan, “Good morning my Lady, you don't look good. Should I call the doctor for you?” she inquired. I cringed at the mention of the doctor since I was very much aware of the fact that the doctor was a close friend of Liam, and he would not agree to keep the fact that I was pregnant a secret. I was not ready to risk the life of my baby for anything.Instantly I said, “No Ma

Avery’s POVI staggered backward, but Maria held me closely, staying in that position for some seconds. I tried to process everything that was happening. Maria articulated, “Sir Liam I was the cause of everything, please punish me, Don’t punish my Lady.” Her voice was shaky as she stood in front of me, suddenly I felt a surge of adrenaline flow through my veins. “Maria step aside.” I said inaudibly. She quickly moved toward the kitchen staring at me with worry. I stood before Liam, “Do you know why I'm not so surprised? you are nothing but an irresponsible man. Who not only cheats on his wife with her ex-best friend but also hits his wife in the presence of his mistress. How shameful can you be Liam? I gave up my life for you following every stupid order you made without seeing anything wrong in it, feeding your ego watching you become more successful in your career while my life deteriorated. I blame myself for believing a lying selfish human being like you in the first place. Your

Liam’s POVDiverse thoughts flowed through my mind while Laura snuggled closer to me on the couch in the sitting room. What if Avery decided to tell Nana everything that has been going on? Why did she choose to go there today of all days? Is there a possibility that she is truly tired of this marriage? My head kept racing non-stop in my chest while I reclined into the chair, Laura looked up at me and slowly lifted her hands to my cheek. “Are you okay Liam? You look so pale and tired suddenly, Does this have anything to do with Avery going to your Nana’s house? Feigning a smile I replied, “I'm fine Laura, let’s just watch the series.” She looked displeased with my response but still managed to push the whole thing forward, “I know you are so afraid of your Nana but Why is that? She is not even your biological grandmother? So what is the fuss about?” her insensitive words echoed across the sitting room. Quickly I placed my right hand over her mouth in a bid to shut her up, “Do you

Laura Jones!Someone moved closer, probably a bodyguard then removed my blindfold and the cloth on my mouth roughly before moving away. I blinked twice trying to get a hang of my environment, suddenly I felt so scared seeing the fierce-looking bodyguards standing close to me.Recoiling into my shell, I redirected my gaze to Laura who had an evil smirk on her face, “So the almighty Avery is finally in front of me. I warned you, but you just did not listen, always thinking you are better than me. Who's the boss now?” she taunted, moving closer to me.I stared daggers at her but was taken aback when I saw Khloe walking behind her holding a pistol.

I checked it and discovered it was a threat from an unknown number,“Watch your back, Avery, I'm coming for you. This is not over yet, Liam is mine, and I refuse to share him with you. I don't mind wiping your footprint off the surface of this earth, be warned!!”Instantly I knew it was from Laura, taking a deep breath I wondered what she still wanted from me. I could not understand how I was standing in her way to be with Liam. It sounded so absurd, but then I decided to report it to Jamal so we could get a restraining order on her too.Jamal arrived hours later, “How is my baby doing?” he said, placing a soft kiss on my forehead. Exhaling sharply I replied,“ It has been a hell of a day babe, I'm happy you are here, can we go home now?”He stared at me in a funny way, “Alright, but you will have to give me every single detail about it.” he said before reaching for my brunch pac

Try not to stress your beautiful self, I love you always, Ave.” he said before leaning in and claiming my lips softly. I moaned loudly in his mouth, Jamal quickly jerked away from me. “You are doing it again, please you can step out now before I do something drastic like claiming you in the backseat now!” he said running his finger through his hair. Blushing I replied, “Yes sire, have a lovely day too. Don’t get too worked up I know you will certainly smash your pitch.

Liam’s POVI sauntered into the sitting room feeling weary, my jaw ached so bad I could no longer feel my gum. At this moment, I realized I already lost Avery two years ago from the time I first raised my hand to smack her across her face and also when I cheated on her with Lisa, my secretary. Exhaling I slumped on the couch, reaching for the whiskey bottle I gulped the whole content. Staring around the sitting room, my life flashed before me, and I recalled how Avery and I were so happy before my ego spoiled everything we built. My head started spinning terribly. I felt like dying, my career was over even with every tactic I used in trying to get these directors to invest in my company it was useless. The funny thing was my grandfather resolved to donate half of his properties to Charity when he passed away, so there was no inheritance waiting for me since I failed to keep my marriage.

Could you please do this one thing for me? I don't feel settled knowing that Liam is trying to get you back, and we don't know how violent he can become when you keep refusing him.” Jamal said while massaging Avery’s shoulders gently.“Yes…! This feels so good, right there, that’s the spot.” Avery replied, completely immersed in the massage. “Avery!! Are you even listening?”She paused and stared at him softly, “Jamal that’s the only way I get to leave the house, you are always going off to work and coming back home late. My mom has her therapy sessions during the week and Emma is still on her vacation, so what do I do? And I have two art pieces to deliver after this, I'm done.

Chapter 113Avery’s POV Jamal held me close while we left the hospital, Dr. Leonardo told him something, but they discussed it in hushed tones while the nurse took my blood sample. He returned saying everything was normal, but after the discussion his countenance was disturbing. It was obvious something was going on, but Jamal was keeping it away from me, so I made up my mind to get the details from him before going to bed. We stopped at the pharmacy down the road and Jamal got down to get the supplements I needed and some drugs Dr. Leonard prescribed earlier at the hospital. I watched him walk into the pharmacy, he looked so tensed and angry but tried his best to calm himself down. Clutching my dress I tried to calm myself down, Liam cornering me at the studio was something I never thought he was going to do.

We moved to the guest room yesterday, Jamal helped to move all my stuff and got me a new massage chair. It felt so good last night when I tried it out, but it did not help with my fear of being cornered by Liam at the shopping mall. What became crazy was the fact that I knew Liam must have scouted for me through my social media page, and he knew where my studio was located. In the last two days, I came up with a sob story of how I was experiencing a series of cramps and just felt like resting all in a bid to outrun Liam, but now I just needed to get back to work. It is just a few weeks from my EDD and I still have two art pieces to complete. Sighing, I stepped on the accelerator while I drove down the road heading for the studio.
