Dear Ex, Come Back With My Baby WINNING THE CASE
***MIRABELLA'S POV***“All packed up?” Roman asked as he walked into the living room and I bobbed my head, smiling slightly.“How long did you say you'll be gone for?” “Just a day. I'll be back after inspecting the property. We should get there in about 8-9 hours so I'll have time to inspect everything.” I responded and Roman bobbed his head.“Do you need me to come with? I will cancel my program for today and go with you if you just say the word.”“I can take care of myself, Roman. You don't need to worry about me.” I responded with a reassuring smile and Roman let out a sigh.“Alright then, I'll drop you off at the airport before heading to the office.”I didn't refuse his offer as I knew it was the only way to put his mind at ease. I was going to Malibu, California to inspect the property Logan had mentioned during our meeting. I needed to gather as much information as I could to build up a strong case in court.The court hearing was a few days away and this was the last step for

***MIRABELLA'S POV*** I quickly pulled away from his hold and created a distance between us. “Mr. Grey, what are you doing here?” I asked, staring at him intently. “You haven't been picking my calls, and you haven't been home for a while. I was worried —” “So you tracked me down to my court hearing?” I asked, cutting him off. “Mirabella, please can we talk?” Easton asked, his gaze pleading for me to hear him out. I was tempted to give in but quickly snapped out of it. I turned to Logan who was still standing behind me as he observed Easton keenly. “Where did you say we were having lunch?” I asked and he turned to me with a smile. “Anywhere you like. I know a fine restaurant downtown but if you have somewhere else you want to go—” “Let's go then.” I said with a smile and Logan bobbed his head while stretching out his hand to me. I was about to take his hand when I felt another hand pull me back slightly. “Mirabella, if you're doing this to make me jealous —” “Make you jealo

***MIRABELLA'S POV***“He's injured pretty badly. He got into an accident on his way home.” Lola responded and my heart skipped a beat.“Send me the address of the hospital. I'll be there—”“He's actually home, ma'am.” Lola responded, cutting me off and I furrowed my brows.“What?! Didn't you just say he got into an accident?” I asked with a frown.“He is being treated by the family doctor.” She replied and I let out a sigh.“Take me home.” I instructed the driver and he maneuvered the vehicle, taking a U-turn.We got home minutes later and I dashed out of the car, instructing the driver to take Alfred to his room. I met Lola pacing in the living room and she let out a heavy sigh the moment she saw me.“How is he? Where is he?” I asked, my voice laced with panic.“He is in his study.” I bobbed at Lola before heading to the study and a frown settled on my face when I saw Dad sitting on his chair and going through some documents.He had a light bandage on his head and a few scratches

***MIRABELLA'S POV*** I slowly opened my eyes and was greeted by three familiar faces, Mom, Roman and Lola. “What happened?” I asked slowly as I tried to sit up. Roman helped me up immediately. “You almost gave me a heart attack, that's what happened.” Mom said, her tone was a bit harsh with a mix of sadness in them. “I told you to take it easy, ma'am. The test results are not out yet but I'm certain you collapsed from exhaustion.” Lola said with a sad expression. At that moment, the door came open and the doctor walked in. “How are you feeling, Ms. Brookwood?” He asked with a warm smile. “I feel fine doctor. Can I get discharged today?” “Of course but can you tell us what happened before you collapsed?” He asked while staring at me keenly. “I had a killer headache and the next thing I knew I was waking up here.” I replied and he hummed a response. “What's your sleeping routine? Do you work late hours?” He asked and I slowly bobbed my head. “And have you been under a lot o

***LOGAN'S POV***I stared at my phone for a while waiting for her response but then it became obvious she wasn't going to respond. I let out a soft chuckle as I placed the phone on the table and leaned back on my chair.“Mirabella Brookwood, you still remain a mystery to me.” I said while tapping my fingers on the table. I heard a slight knock on the door and then it got pulled open, revealing my right hand man, Eduardo.“Boss, I have the information you requested.” He said as he made his way to my table and placed an envelope on it.“Wonderful.” I said with a smile as I opened the envelope and brought out the documents and the attached photos.“Easton was able to secure a huge partnership with Hillgates Company and Delta G's chats have skyrocketed ever since then. Also, his ex-wife was present during the trip and it seems they've been spending a lot of time together too.” He explained as I glanced through the photos.“It does appear so. The kid seems really attached to Easton too.”

***NICOLE'S POV***I clicked my glass with Charlotte's before taking a sip. We were celebrating my successful mission in tying Easton down to me. “I knew you had it in you. Now all you have to do is make the public aware. The Grey family cares a lot about their reputation. Once you make it known that you're carrying his child, his parents would have no other choice but to let you two get married.” Charlotte said with a knowing grin and I smiled in satisfaction.“And then once we're married, I can fake having a miscarriage and win Easton's sympathy once more. We'll eventually have another baby along the way but even before then, I'll officially be Mrs. Nicole Grey.” I beamed and sipped my wine, letting out a soft giggle.The thought of finally being married to Easton, I just couldn't wait!But now here comes the hard part, getting the news online. “How do you suggest I go public with our relationship?” I turned to Charlotte with a curious gaze.“It's simple, have him invite you to a
Last Updated : 2024-11-29Dear Ex, Come Back With My Baby IT'S MORE LIKE AN OBSESSION
***EASTON'S POV***I picked up the bottle of tequila and filled up my glass while struggling to keep my eyes open. “Haven't you had enough already?” Kyle asked but he doesn't stop me from drinking it. We are seated at the balcony of my room, under the night sky. I had called him over as I needed someone to talk to, more like vent to cause I felt angry, frustrated and heartbroken at the same time.I heard about Mirabella's father's accident and went over to see him after work but they didn't let me in. I even got to learn from one of the maids that Mirabella had collapsed that same day.I was so worried that I had to see her but they said I was the cause of her stress. Mrs. Martha wouldn't even look me in the eyes anymore, it's like she hates me now for constantly hurting her daughter.Roman gave me a clear warning to stay away from her. I could vividly remember our encounter.***FLASHBACK***I rushed out of the car and walked over to the front porch, ringing the doorbell somewhat de
Last Updated : 2024-11-29Dear Ex, Come Back With My Baby THE BAIT
***ROMAN'S POV***I nervously rubbed my hands together as I awaited Mirabella in the living room. I couldn't understand why I was nervous, this is all I had ever wanted and though I knew it wasn't really a real date, just the thought of spending some alone time with her gave me hope.I heard footsteps approaching and slowly turned towards the stairs and there she was, descending the stairs ever so gracefully, her red heels clicking against the fine blocks.I couldn't take my eyes off her no matter how hard I tried, and it felt like the world had been placed on stand still, leaving only Mirabella and me. She wore a breathtaking, off-the-shoulder red gown made of high quality silk. The vibrant red color was deep and rich, exuding elegance and sophistication. Her neckline was adorned with an emerald red necklace, adding a touch contract. I smiled brightly as I stared at her gorgeous face which had light makeup on it. She was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen and the hard pounding

Dear Ex, Come Back With My Baby THE KISS
~SANDY~ I ruffled my hair, feeling a bit frustrated. I pushed all thoughts of Alfred at the back of my mind as I came out of the bathroom. “Long time no see.” I froze on hearing that familiar masculine voice and slowly turned my head towards my bed. I widened my eyes in shock on seeing Alfred comfortably lying on my bed. “Alfred! What the hell are you doing in my room?!” I snapped as I tightened my grip on my towel. He sat up on the bed and turned to me, and I didn't fail to notice how his gaze raked over my body but his expression remained blank. “I figured you wouldn't come to see me so I decided to take the initiative.” He replied while staring intently at me. If only he knew the effect those hazel-green eyes had on me. Why did he have to show up now of all times? “Alfred, get out of my room.” I said, trying to be as calm as possible, however I didn't move an inch from where I stood. I dared not move for the fear of tripping and dropping my towel. “You have never had a

He's not even around and your locker is still flooding with love letters.” Hailey, my best friend said and let out a sigh. “It's not like he ever reads them.” I responded as I brought out my sports wear, putting it in my bag before stacking the letters back into my locker. “It must be stressful having such a hot brother.” Hailey remarked with a smirk but I understood exactly where she was going with that. “It's too early, Hailey.” I said with a sigh as I began walking towards the changing room with Hail

Next, we went to a five star restaurant and had all the best cuisine they had to offer. By the time we got back to our hotel, it was almost midnight. “Gosh that was amazing! I can't remember when last I had this much fun.” I squeaked and Easton chuckled. “I'll run you a bath and then we could call it a night.” He said and I frowned slightly. “Call it a night?” “You must be exhausted from our tour. And it's really late, so I think —” “I think we should both take a shower. How about that?” I said with a smirk and Easton chuckled. “You still think you can handle it?” He asked as he closed the space between us, wrapping his arms possessively around my waist. “Try me.” I responded, holding his gaze.

It was his sixth birthday today and we had all gathered to cheer him on.“Go on, Alfred. Blow out your candles.” Mom said with a bright smile.“Don't forget to make a wish.” I added and he bobbed his head.“What did you wish for, sweetheart?” I asked with a smile after he blew out his candles, and he beamed before responding.“I wished that you would marry Daddy.” I felt my cheeks burn on hearing his words, however, I wasn't prepared for what happened next.Easton suddenly brought out a ring from his pocket as he got down on one knee.“Mirabella, I know things didn't go well between us in our first marriage, and I know you might not want to marry me because of that, but I promise, this time would be different.

***LOGAN'S POV***“You have a visitor.” The prison guard said to me and I let out a sigh.“I don't want to see anyone.” I stated as I already had an idea of my visitor's identity. He has been coming here for over a month now even when I kept putting him off.“Do you think I get paid enough to be a messenger? Just see the man already so he can stop coming here!” The guard snapped and I slowly got up from my head.“Fine.” I responded and he opened my cell. He led me towards the phone booth and I reluctantly took a seat, picking up the phone.“What do you want, Lionel?” I asked, trying my best not to roll my eyes at his pitiful face.“I came to check up on you.” He responded and I scoffed.“Shouldn't you be more worried about your other children? They did get hurt after all.” I said with a scoff."If you're concerned about them, then know that they are fine. It's been almost two months since the whole incident, and everyone has moved on. I'm hoping you would too."I scoffed at his words.

Kyle and I will go check it out —”“I will not let my son walk into that building, knowing he might not walk out. I'm coming with you.” Dad insisted and I frowned. We already agreed he won't interfere, and now we were here, he was suddenly changing his mind?“Dad, we agreed on this.”“I am coming with you and that's final.” He said and pushed open the door without waiting for my response.I let out a sigh and went after with Kyle tailing behind us.We noticed there were two entrances to the building and still no security guards in sight.“I have a bad feeling about this.” Kyle muttered as we made our way through the smaller entrance.It
