Bound To The Billionaire Chapter 58
In all the times that I had known Jeremy, this was the first time I heard such a tone from him, and I couldn’t bear to hear it. It was monotone and dull, as if all life had been sucked out of him and there was nothing else he would do.“Jeremy?” I came closer to him, but he shifted away from me, and that hurt me more than I could have imagined.“I must apologize; I didn’t know you had a visitor. I will be on my way now, but here, I have something for you.” He said, stretching his hand towards me to reveal a hint box. “Goodbye,” he said, turning to go, but I held his hands to prevent him from doing so.“You just came here; surely you can’t just leave like that,” I said to him, completely ignoring Alex.“I don’t see any need for me to stay here any longer; you have a visitor, and you seemed to be busy. I wouldn’t want to disturb what you have.”I rolled my eyes at him. Men, why do they have so much ego?“Come on, it wouldn’t be bad if we could all gather in the living room and celebrate

I waited for a moment, watching his ripped back as he went far away from me, and I whispered to the air, hoping it would carry it to him. “I will miss you, Jeremy.”I got on with watching until he disappeared completely from my sight, and I went back inside to meet Alex. The oblivious man was still sitting in the same spot I had left him. I came to meet him, and he took one look at my demeanor and was instantly standing up.“What is wrong? Did he hurt you? Because I swear I will make him pay.” I shook my head, indicating he didn't, and before I could say anything, the floodgates opened and I began to cry.Alex was at a loss for words, seeing me in such a state, and he had no idea what to do. Instead, he held me and drew me closer, hugging me tight.“It is alright.’ He kept on whispering gently on and on, allowing me to cry out of my heart. And whenever I wanted to stop, I would hear his gentle voice coursing through me, and I would begin another round of tears.I cried until I couldn’

“Fucking hell.” Alex growled as he saw me, and he was already on his feet, walking towards me as if he were enchanted. “Ruby.” He groaned as if he were in pain.“How do I look?” I asked, twirling for him. I already knew the answer from the way he was devouring me, but I needed to hear him say it.“Magnificent. If you weren’t single, I would have fought your man just to be with you.” Alex had said, and I shielded my mouth with my hands as I laughed.His eyes raked over my entire being, looking at me appreciatively, and I was beaming with pride. I have never been so happy that I got this dress.“I think you have asthma because anytime I see you, you take my breath away,” Alex said, and I was shaking my head, almost doubling in laughter.I think I like this new side of Alex; he was flirtatious and fun—everything the old one wasn’t.“Shall we, my lady?” He held out his arms for me, and I gladly took them.“Of course, my prince.” I took his arms and let him lead me out, but not before turn

I couldn’t keep off the nagging voice in my head as I made it to my hospital appointment, and all the while I was occupied thinking about the last time I got my implant.It has become a part of me so much that I have forgotten about it, and now I am regretting it. I have been unsafe for the past month, and I needed to be sure.I arrived at the hospital and headed straight to the fertility clinic, wearing huge sunglasses even though I was inside. I was trying to avoid an unnecessary run-in with someone I know.I sat in the waiting area, waiting for my turn, while I busied myself with my calendar, trying to remember the last time I had a period.All that was only giving me headaches, and I couldn’t be more grateful when the doctor called my name and I entered in.“Miss Ruby, it has been a while.” The female doctor said with a huge smile that threatened to tear her lips. It was even surprising that she remembered me because I couldn’t remember the last time I was here, nor could I rememb

I came to that conclusion after I had imagined what my life would be like, and I knew I wasn’t ready for a child yet.Tomorrow, I was going to go back to that clinic, and I was getting rid of the child. I don’t care what the consequence is, but I was not ready to burden myself with this labor when I was still young.A nagging voice was prompting me to tell Alex. “He is also the father of the child; he had every right to know.”But I couldn’t tell him; Alex would be so excited. He had told me his plans for a large family, and he would insist I keep them, and I didn’t want to do that.I rubbed my temple with my thumb and forefinger as I felt the onset of a headache coming on. Today has been particularly stressful; in fact, the whole of the week has, and I was trying my best to remain calm.Tomorrow was a work day, and I guarantee that I would be much happier after I immersed myself in it. Then, come evening, I would be rid of this unwanted stress growing inside me, and my life would be

“I want an abortion.”Everywhere grew still as I proclaimed the words; even the air was static, as if the world were in shock at what I had just said.I didn’t even need to look at her face to know that the doctor was in shock. I mean, I wasn’t a teenager who wanted to get rid of an unplanned pregnancy; I was an adult, and many people my age would be looking for children now.But here I was, doing the opposite.I looked up at her, and her mouth was slightly open; her brown eyes widened a quarter, but she shook herself out of the daze.“I don’t know if I heard you correctly.”I smiled and nodded my head, not taking offense. Although abortion has been legal in the state of Washington for a while, it is still frowned upon."Yes, you heard right. I want an abortion.”“Alright.” She replied, although I knew that wasn’t all she had to say, so I decided to rescue her. “It is fine; you can ask me if you want to.”“I don’t want to pry, but I have been your gynecologist for a long time, and I am

Just a disclaimer: I will be telling this chapter and probably the next chapter in a third-person POV so we can better understand it.But be rest assured that the rest of the story will be from Ruby’s POV. Enjoy.Jeremy was on his desk, enjoying the rich taste of his latte as he worked on his laptop. Last week was challenging enough for him, and he hasn’t been able to focus on his work.He had gotten a reality check when he saw how happy Ruby was with her ex—or whatever the man was to her—and he backed down.It wasn’t an easy one, but he had made a promise to himself to try and forget her, and that was what he had been trying to do.He wasn’t going to lie; it was a difficult task since he had loved Ruby ever since, but it hadn’t been days now, and he was coming back to his normal life.He even noticed that his secretary was a beautiful young woman since all the years she has been working with him.Yeah, that was how blinded he was with Ruby.Jeremy was occasionally sipping from his co

Jeremy’s fingers hovered on the screen of the phone, contemplating his decision. “Is there a need for it?” He couldn’t help but wonder.If he could have his way, he wouldn’t bother, but with their new relationship status—whatever it was, it was only right that he knew.If he were the one in that position, he would be happy if he was told the truth, no matter how bad it was.And that was the only reason he was scrolling through her contacts to look for Alex. He found it easily since she had saved his name with Alex.Something he was grateful for.If Ruby had saved it as anything else, maybe a pet name, he would have lost it.“This is for Ruby.” Jeremy said underneath his breath before he clicked on the contact and called him.He held his breath as the phone rang, suddenly believing he had done the wrong thing and praying he didn’t pick up the call.He should have prayed harder because after the fourth rang, the person on the other end picked up the call.“Ruby?” Alex's baritone voice b
