CHAPTER 146READER'S POV Daniel refused to believe that his ex-wife, Rose, was pregnant. He wanted to believe that her best friend was just pulling his legs and nothing more but Rose kept on saying the same thing.“I would never lie about this Daniel…” She went on and on trying to convince him but she was interrupted by eager and confused Daniel.“But if she is, why is it that she did not tell me? I mean even though we have our differences I have the right to be aware of this.” Daniel explained. Now, with his fingers on his right hand invading the space on his head as he played with his hair trying to calm down.Rose nodded before she eventually spoke, “Remember what I said earlier? That I do not even want to speak with you or even see your face but I had no other choice but to shove my emotions away and do the needful by informing you. If my best friend is pissed and blinded by her emotions, I have to stand in the gap for her and do the needful. It is up to you to set things right.”

Her voice was barely above a whisper. What she said seemed to have pierced my heart, I felt a sharp pain in my chest and fell on the chair “Go home safely…” she said and walked off like nothing happened.

ROSEWere this the pregnancy hormones they spoke of, call me crazy but at that moment there were lot of things running through my mind, it was almost as though I was feeling paranoid about the entire situation, or it was just the fact that I was meeting this news peopleSo far my attempt to put Daniel Fraser out of my mind and been quite successful, it was crazy to think of but at the same time, it was the best for me, best for the child—“Are you fine ma'am." It was the nurse speaking, I turned and realized that I had been so self absorbed and didn't realize that she had been standing there for quite a while.“Everything is fine." I was quick to answer. My mind blurred everything else she said while I concentrated on the one paramount thing that seemed to be at the center of my mind. “So Miss Rose, can you tell us how you feel in this trimester?" In my head it felt as though everyone was looking at me, I could feel my skin burn up as I i could feel it heat up from my anxiety.Of

CHAPTER 151ROSEIF there was anything any woman was afraid of it was Having complications during the pregnancy , as it was, I happened to find myself in that list and it was not just anything, I had that fear that this might just be a complication or maybe I was just over reacting.Soon as Anna pulled into the drive, she drove to the back of the parking lot of the hospital and parked next to one of the cars. It was a brief moment of anxiety as I walked gingerly toward the detached building that might have been awkward for a hospital.. I didn’t know what to say at that moment—who could blame me? I’d never even been in this condition. If there was anything I could feel at time it was most definitely anxiety — I must've been so distracted by my thoughts that I didn't know she was right next to me, it was after speaking that I became quite certain about my thoughts..At first my heartbeat jumped when she spoke.“Are you fine?" She muttered firmly. “Dinri, worry yourself. I am assured

I’d come to the conclusion that even if I were to be with this man, it would be my death as he could give my heart leave my heart ruined with fissures and cracks—Still if I had thought to take one more risk, it would definitely be my heart doing that, it would definitely be my heart taking a risk that my brain wouldn't take, it would definitely be it taking chances, and the end of what that could be is my greatest fear. Thankfully, I’d always been real with myself and at the moment, it seemed more or less like I had to do

Much as I tried not to think about it, it still felt crazy that I couldn't do anything or scream out in frustration.Still deep down in my soul, I could feel that regrettable feeling.

CHAPTER 167ROSE“What are you doing? “That had been the first question that I had on my lips-He merely looked at me with his gaze saying a thousand things at that moment, I couldn't say what was happening but still with his heart racing wildly it was easy to say that he was definitely up to something." I looked at him blankly again.” My attention was drawn to where he had touched me earlier and I could swear that it still burned.Everything about the moment did, while expecting that he did speak , he didn't instead he merely looked at me while still locking his gaze in."I just need to tell you that there is a need for you to be careful.” He muttered. “Be careful about your friend Anna. “I was so confused about everything that was going on that I couldn't decipher all that was going on at that moment.What could this be about?Why did he want me to be careful about her? Much as all this was going through my mind enough that all I did was roll my eyes.“Fine I had listened to you

I asked immediately.Anna seemed to be hiding something as she seemed usually quiet -“Is there something you want to tell me?" Anna muttered and I found myself thinking of why she had asked.For me it most definitely had to be for a subtle reason, one that left me in a daze still pondering about the situation.“No, I am just here … why did you ask?”While still running through all the entirety of what to say at that moment, I tried again to play through the entire situation at the back of my mind."What are you doing throughout the rest of tomorrow.”I was still trying to get thro

DANIELLife pulls some strings and you are just left at times behind trying to figure out what to do, such is that that I had found myself, I was left in the past leaving Right there amidst the damages I had brought upon myself.Perhaps this same reason was why she would never trust me again, when they say good things they say come in little packages at the moment that was the case of something I had taken for granted.I wasn't shocked seeing him walk into the pub,matter of fact my spilling my drink had nothing to do with Marcus at that moment, i was shocked about the woman he was with -It was funny in a way how I chose to perceive how intellectual she had to be all this whole while for being the last person we'd suspect all this while, for the first time that evening I wouldn't deny having that smile on my face.Only this time it wasn't because I was happy, rather I was damn shocked! The smile was there when the bartender had walked to where I was , while still thinking of what t
