CHAPTER SEVEN
**Time passed by quickly. The days turned into weeks and weeks transformed into months.
There were only two weeks left before Aurora was due to put to birth. It had always been required for her to go for a check-up at least once every week, the hospital had provided everything she ate, along with supplements that were required for the baby's development.The pregnancy had been unbelievable to her until the first day she had felt the infant move inside of her, she had known some moments of incredible happiness, there was a life growing inside of her!That moment of joy had been short-lived.Her child would never know her, the pain that accompanied that thought became more and more unbearable as months went passed.She had tried not to allow herself to become emotionally attached, she couldn't allow herself to fall in love with the life growing inside of her, because she knew it would hurt more when it was time to give hiCHAPTER EIGHT**"One million is a huge amount of money, you can leave in comfort for the rest of your life with it"The doctor's words left Aurora speechless for a moment, when she had finally gotten the money, these were the last words she expected to hear.Her instinct told her that something was wrong, she couldn't shake off the feeling."What are you trying to say, doctor?" The words squeezed out of her throat.The doctor shook his head, a look of pity flashing across his eyes."The surgery was delayed for so long, It's become critical, even if it's performed now, there is a ninety percent chance that he wouldn't make it"A cold chill seized her whole body, she could barely manage to get the next words out of her mouth as the strength was suddenly drained out of her."No doctor! You have to save him! I can't lose him! You have to save him!"The doctor shook his head sym
CHAPTER NINE.**Aurora couldn't recognize the sound of her own voice, she was sobbing, praying as well as yelling.There were ambulances everywhere around, several people had been injured, some unlucky ones were dead and some had managed to escape unscathed by the fire which had resulted from a tanker explosion that had swerved out of control.She wasn't seeing Sammie anywhere, nobody was attending to her as a crowd of people needed caring for."Where is he? ! " She cried out to no one in particular.She heard a fireman telling a woman that there was nobody currently in the hospital building, everyone had been evacuated.A woman from the fire service directed her to the ambulances that conveyed the children that had been injured, some were unconscious, ready to be transferred to another hospital.Sammie was not among them.Her panic spiked further, each painful second that passed by struck her soul
CHAPTER TENTwo and Half Years Later.**The couple shone radiantly, the woman had an oval-shaped face, her white dress which framed a perfect slender body gave her a demure angelic look. One could easily tell she favored one leg though, her hand was clasped around the man. He wore a charcoal suit, his eyes were dark, having the most perfect jawline, his face set in a hard neutral mask.From where they stood upstairs, it seemed to everyone present that the couple was always meant to be at the top.The journalists were busy, cameras kept flashing lights, the never-ending questions continued."Mr.Tremont, In just two years since your return as T.S CEO, The company has once again taken its spot in the global market, what can you attribute to this success? " A journalist asked.The man answered the question with considerable ease, the pride in his voice could never be mistaken.It was his world. He never
CHAPTER ELEVEN**She would have to meet him no matter what."Wait! Don't go! " Aurora yelled, but her voice was easily lost in the crowd.Heaving a frustrated sigh, she nudged her way passed tight bodies. She was so close to Tremont Stone. Only the security team separated him from her."Mr. Tremont! I need to speak to you! It's urgent!" She shouted again, trying to blend her way passed the security. His eyes located her then, for the briefest of seconds and aurora almost forgot how to breathe, she wore a pleading desperate look, but she doubted if he saw that, no doubt to him she was one of those nosy reporters that were trying to get a peek into his private life. The security guards were trying their possible best not to hurt her, and at the same time ensure that she didn't get too close to Tremont. She pushed her way passed them suddenly. She succeeded! They didn't expect her to be so difficult. The
CHAPTER TWELVE**"Dawddy!""Dawddy!! "The jumbled words welcomed Tremont into the kid's room, seconds later tiny feet ran towards him. He caught Ryan mid-air as he jumped, bringing forth more squeals and laughter. Ryan's laughter was contagious, Tremont found himself grinning as well. "Someone missed me eh? ""Me didn't miss you! " Ryan spoke, a scowl forming on his face as though he had just remembered he had to be upset. "Is someone telling a lie? ""Me didn't!! I'm angwy with you " Ryan spoke, scowling at his father, even though his words were still quite jumbled and childlike, Tremont could understand very much well. In a few months, his son would turn three, he had grown so big that even he hadn't realized when Tremont could still remember the first time his miracle had been placed in his arms, that day would never be forgotten. "Oh? And why is that? " He spoke lifting a brow, Ryan tried to imitate th
CHAPTER THIRTEEN~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aurora's eyes fluttered open, she had to quickly shut them close again, the lights were too bright. With a sudden realization that this wasn't her room, her eyes snapped open, she searched around the room with her eyes, it appeared to be a hospital room.An expensive-looking one. She recalled being hit by that metal fragment, and then she had been lifted by none other by Tremont Stone. She nearly shot off the bed, judging from the ray of light that was escaping into the room through the window at the other end, she could guess that it was morning.How had she been unconscious for that long, Mr. Tremont must have long gone. The thought filled her with a surge of hopelessness, she had been so close to him, how had she missed that opportunity?She was consumed with the sudden urge to break down in tears.The door opened and two nurses entered inside, a young woman who looke
CHAPTER FOURTEEN~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"I require a nanny for my grandson."A moment went passed, Aurora gaped in disbelief. Shock made her heart pound faster and heavier. What had she just heard?"You still haven't said a word, is that a disagreement?"Still, Aurora couldn't speak, her mind was thrown into chaos. It was going to happen!She was finally going to see her son?She was assaulted by several emotions, predominant of them all was doubt, she was afraid that this would turn out to be one of her wishful thoughts that would soon disappear in a million bubbles. "No! I m..mean, of course, I'm grateful for your offer ma'am " She responded breathlessly. The older woman's smile broadened as she extended a hand. "Linnet, just call me that, I'll hear from you once you get discharged."Immediately Linnet left, Aurora jumped off the bed, she didn't mind the throbbing pain in her head and left shoulder, for her at
CHAPTER FIFTEEN ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"He is inside this room " Those words were enough to make Aurora inhale deeply, she shut her eyes tightly closed for the briefest moment, she could hear the violent pounding of her heart.She heard the door push open, her eyes flew open as she followed the man inside the room. That was when she saw him and her gut clenched tightly. He hadn't turned over to look in their direction yet, her legs trembled violently with every step she took towards him. "Hello" She rasped, her throat suddenly sore.That was the little boy who had been so immense in his coloring turned around. The man beside her was speaking to her but Aurora only had eyes for the dark-haired boy who was peeking at her curiously.This was her son! Her heart soared eyes, memories flashed through her head, the first time she had felt him move inside of her belly, the day she birthed him but had only been allowed to hold him f
