Divorcing him: Mr billionaire doesn't want our baby 48
VIVIANThe rays of sunlight streamed into my eyes and I stretched my limbs, a smile etched on my face as the quiet of the room made me even more pleased.I looked below the bed and found that it was empty, like the way I had intended for it to be . Nate had gotten the message yesterday , a part of me wanted to feel bad but fuck that.I checked the time on my phone and found out that I had even slept in, there were no maids waking me up for breakfast, no fights? I could really step into this life, a life without Nate Stuart, I bet I would even like it.I swinged my leg away from the bed, seeing that It was just ten in the morning, Nate would be by the patio or he would have stepped out of the house and I took a breathe, got showered and dressed and prepared myself to meet him.I needed to play on his good side and get a good enough lie to make him think I didn’t need his help with whatever it was that I was going to do to go outside of the house.As I climbed down the stairs, it irked

VIVIANMy heart was racing!Did he see me?I wanted to check around my surroundings to see if I would see Nate's customized BMW but I didn't see it.The way my heart was pulsing, I went straight to my car started the ignition and drove off, straight to the house.Maybe Nate had called in and he couldn't reach me. I didn't plan this part of my lie, if I had even had the chance to tell the lie.I arrived at home and noticed that the maids had a stare about them, I was almost too afraid to call one of them to ask if Nate had called.It was going to be easy, there was no way that Nate was at home, at least by this time.There was nothing for me to be worried about, nothing for me to start over thinking.I placed an arm on the door and with a breath, swing the door and gasped in shock.sweat beaded my head immediately.Nate was standing with his hands taking a cup to his lips while the other hand was vicariously typing on his phone."Nate..." I breathed out in shock but Nate didn't turn ar

VIVIANMy eyes fluttered awake, there was a weight pressed behind my back and I loved the feel of it.I gave a small moan as I pressed myself into the weight, a sensation crawled up on my stomach and I loved the feel.The warmness.I placed my hand on my stomach and my breath froze, making me jump out of the bed in fright.I blinked twice as hard as I started to realize that it wasn’t a dream that I was pressed against a weight but instead, it was none other than Nate in my fucking bed.The spot I occupied was now been felt up, his huge hands tapping the bed and slowly his eyes opened, the cutest set of eyes and normally in the past,I would be fawn over it but not today and certainly, not right now.“What the absolute hell! Are you doing here and in bed with me? “ I asked, my hands immediately crossed.Instead of Nate to respond to what I was asking, he took his sweet time to sit up and then proceeded to rub his eyes and the very image of it, irritated me.“Is this what you want to be

Chapter 51Vivian's POVThe elevator doors slid open and a man walked in.His chiseled features and strong jawline left me breathless. His dark hair was perfectly messy like he had just gotten out of bed and ran his fingers through it. He was dressed in a tailored suit, his broad shoulders filling out the fabric perfectly. His fragrance seemed familiar, a subtle blend of spice and leather that made my heart skip a beat.Nate's style was quite similar to his. For some reason, his cold smile reminded me of Nate. Wait, why was I thinking about that man? I caught myself allowing thoughts of him to intrude my head.I was staring too much at him. ‘Stop looking!’ my mind screamed at me but I was too stunned to move. He seemed to sense my gaze on him and turned to me, his eyes locking onto mine. I could feel my cheeks flushing at the sight of him as my mind raced thinking of where I had seen him before. “Good morning”, he greeted. His low and husky voice sent shivers down my spine. My mind

Vivian I glanced at my watch and realized it was almost past lunchtime. I had been so caught up with settling into the new job and meeting the boss that I had forgotten to eat. My stomach growled, reminding me of the need to be refuelled. I started packing up my stuff intending to head to the cafeteria. I looked forward to some quiet lunchtime alone, it would give me the space to think about the surprise encounter I just had with my boss. It was a series of events that left me dazzled. As I stood up from my desk, the interviewer sauntered in and stood in front of my desk. “Vivian, the board would like you to join them for lunch,” she said with a smile. I stared at her, my eyes widened in surprise. “Me? Why? What's happening?” Her smile widened. “They are interested in getting to know you better.” Getting to know me better? That sounds off for some reason. She seemed to have seen the questioning look I had on and grinned, “Please follow me.” I hesitated briefly, unsure of what

Vivian Nate's face inched closer to mine, his breath whispering against my skin. I could feel my heart racing, my body reacting to how close he was. Despite myself, I closed my eyes, my lips parted, anticipating the kiss. There was a silent tension when instead of the pressure on my lips, I felt him touching my hair. He was teasing me. My skin tingled as his fingers gently brushed against my hair, and I felt a shiver run down my spine. Nate's fingers were still in my hair. What was he waiting for goddamit? His hands seemed to closed around something, and he gently pulled it out of my hair. I looked up at him in confusion, but he smiled down at me, his eyes sparkling with amusement. "A piece of paper" he said, holding up the offending object. "You must have picked it up on your walk." I felt a flush rise to my cheeks as Nate straightened up, his eyes never leaving mine. For a moment, we just stared at each other, the tension between us palpable. Then, without another word, Nate t

Vivian's POV I slowly opened my eyes, groggily taking in my surroundings. My head was pounding, and my mouth felt dry. I must have had too much wine last night, I thought. I sat up, rubbing my temple. As I looked around the room, trying to figure out where I was, I tried to remember what had happened last night but my memories were hazy and unclear. I tried to piece together the events of the previous night, but everything was fuzzy. I remembered dinner, and then he brought me to his room. My mind stopped as I recalled the touching. Nate's hands on my skin, his fingers tracing my face. It felt so intimate, so sensual. But after that, everything was a blur. How did I end up in his bed? Did we...did we do something? I gasped. I glanced at the clock on Nate's nightstand and my heart sank. He wasn't here, thank goodness! I was already running late for work. I threw off the covers and got out of bed, my head spinning. I quickly rushed off to my room and took a hurried bath. Quickly cha

Vivian My heart raced in my chest as he approached me. My mind reeled as I tried to make sense of whatever was happening. I could feel the tension in the air as he closed the distance between us. My palms were beginning to get sweaty from how nervous I felt. I tipped my head back and peered into his stormy gray eyes, which stared back at me smilingly. This man was dangerous. His smile seemed to draw me in. I knew I shouldn't be curious since it might be my end, but I couldn't help myself. The spark in his eyes intrigued me and ensnared me without my knowing. I was caught in a whirlpool of confusion and anticipation as I waited. I caught myself in my thoughts. A sudden chill ran down my spine and Nate's face flashed before my eyes. A wave of alarm washed over me leaving me disoriented. What am I doing? My boss was now standing in front of me, with almost no space between us. He paused, his eyes still locked on mine. Then he gently reached out, his fingers brushing against my cheek a

Divorcing him: Mr billionaire doesn't want our baby EPILOGUE
Her hands trembled slightly. She was staring out the window of her office at the academy but her mind was somewhere else entirely. She had been transported back in time to the fateful day two weeks ago when the doctor had made the announcement with a wide grin on her face. "Congratulations, Miss Vivian. You're ten weeks pregnant." She had said, flashing Vivian a genuine smile that reached her crinkling eyes. At that moment, a cold sweat had broken out on Vivian’s forehead as the doctor’s words hit her like a bomb. The words had been so unprecedented, so out of left field that it took her a long time to understand the gravity of the doctor’s pronouncement. When she had finally digested her words, fear caused a knot to form in her stomach."The baby is in perfect condition." The doctor had said and Vivian had smiled at her, happy but at the same time, uncertain. "Your husband must be so proud." She had said. But would he? Nate had been so vehemently against a child and even though

VIVIANI opened my eyes. But I was in an unfamiliar place. The darkness that surrounded me was not only palpable, it was suffocating. I tried to breathe but my lungs seemed to be constricted with something. I stretched forth my hands to guide my path but something seemed to be on my way. I tore at the barrier but it only grew thicker. It was the darkness. Was there any way out of here? How could I fight something I could not even see? I opened my mouth to scream but no sound would come out. I was stuck in this deep, dark pit with nowhere to go but down. Below me, it seemed like there was quicksand and if I did not find a way to get out of here quickly, I would be swallowed whole. I clawed at the space in front of me, beside me and above me but the darkness was too dense, too restricting. Where was help when I needed it the most? My determination had started to wane. My resolve which I thought was stronger than steel bars had become considerably weakened the more it dawned on me t

NATEI felt overwhelmed. I had not felt this way in the longest of times, not even when dealing with Richard's stupidity. Why were things going haywire all of a sudden just when I thought the dust had settled down? I could not pretend not to know why. Gran's announcement yesterday had triggered a lot of suppressed resentment and I just had to deal tactfully with it or everything I held dear would be taken away right before my eyes. I had been called to the company the day before because Aston was making trouble. Word had spread that he had gone around contacting all the members of the board and having a secret meeting with them. I was not sure what the meeting had been about but I could guess. "Let's hurry." I said to my driver as I looked through Vivian's mail for the umpteenth time. I was about to send a message thanking her for her hard work when my phone started to vibrate. It was a call from my personal assistant. "They are holding an emergency extraordinary meeting of the

VIVIANI typed away feverishly. I could feel the adrenaline pumping through my veins, fueling my fingers and propelling me to think. What had this not occurred to me before? Why had I glossed over Emily's statement back then like it was nothing at all. Had I been too overwhelmed at the time that I had been unable to put two and two together? Unable to see what was right in front of me? Emily had said three companies. Three companies, but only two were behind bars. So what happened to the last one? It was a question I should have been asking for sometime now. Would I be able to find a connection that would reveal which company was the third? Would I find enough proof? I started by digging into the two companies. Their CEOs had been well known in the business world for taking over small companies after leading them into debt. There were many comments online laying complaints against them and a third name kept popping up. Could it be?... I changed the direction of my research. It w
Divorcing him: Mr billionaire doesn't want our baby 108
VIVIAN It all felt awkward. Gran had made the announcement of the century and the room was thrown into chaos. Aston looked like he could combust in anger at any time and stormed off. Gran was unwilling to listen to Nate's protests and Nate's mother just looked surprised. I, on the other hand was unsure how I was supposed to react. I was not very surprised, considering how much affinity Gran held for Nate, I was only a bit skeptical about the timing. But what did I care? I was no longer a part of the family. I was practically a stranger who happened to witness the Stuart family going at each other and it didn't matter what my thoughts were. I just wanted to escape before anyone looked in my direction and thought to rope me into it. Gran shuffled out of the room, leaning slightly on his cane and I saw my chance. Nate was still looking around, confused as ever and there was just a general tension in the air that I was sure no one would notice my silent disappearance. It felt good n

NATEI swore internally. How had Ashton found out? But then again, the same idiot that had the temerity to give out company information had probably babbled again. Vivian looked stricken standing there, staring numbly from Ashton to my mother to Gran. She tried to say something but it seemed like the words would not come out. I wanted to hold her and calm her down like I did yesterday in the hospital but this was not the place or time and I was pretty sure she would push me away. Guilt weighed down on me heavily. This was all my fault. I had brought this situation on her and I wanted to fix it badly but I felt control slipping out of my hands. Ashton was pushing, tearing down the walls of support around me, trying to strip me of my confidence and painting Vivian as the black sheep. I could not understand for the life of me why he had suddenly turned bad. Or perhaps he had always been this way, lurking silently in the shadows, waiting for this chance to ruin me. "Vivian did nothin
Divorcing him: Mr billionaire doesn't want our baby 106
VIVIANI sighed for the thousandth time. Why on earth couldn't I be allowed to catch a break? Had all the universal forces aligned to ensure I did not have a single moment of peace? The whole situation seemed absurd to me. I did not yet know what Ethan was going on about but it couldn't be anything good, judging by the tone of his voice. Moreover, he was never one to impose, so if he was in front of my house, it must mean something quite severe was about to go down or was even going down. The taxi came to a stop in front of my apartment and I hurried up the path. I did not have to look for Ethan as his car was parked conspicuously on the driveway and he was sitting on it's hood tapping his phone impatiently. "What the hell, Ethan..." "There's no time for this." He looked worried, confused and most notably, tired. His tie had been drawn down, probably to enable him breathe properly while driving and his hair was tousled as if he had been in too much of a hurry to brush it properl
Divorcing him: Mr billionaire doesn't want our baby 105
VIVIANI was elated.I flashed a wide smile back at the sea of smiling faces. I had not felt this way in a really long time, had not felt like what I had to say mattered, like I could dispense joy so freely, so abundantly and still have so much of it left to live on. I was not sad or angry or conflicted here, I just felt like I was wrapped in a bubble of peace, woven softly into a web of comfort and it scared me that this peace was fragile. That it could easily be broken if I didn't protect it. "Do you kids remember what we learnt yesterday?" I asked, leaning towards them and adopting a high pitched childlike voice. "Yes!" They chorused with enthusiasm. I smiled and turned to the board. "Today, we will learn something even more interesting. Are you ready to learn?" They answered with as much enthusiasm as earlier. Their innocence tugged at my heartstrings. Wouldn't my baby have grown to sound like this? To make mischievous jokes and play pranks on others? Maybe it was really not
Divorcing him: Mr billionaire doesn't want our baby 104
VIVIANAnother emergency. But this one couldn't be a prank because Nate had delivered the news and we weren't exactly friendly enough to pull that type of joke on each other. Also, it involved my mother. Nate was a premium jerk but he wouldn't stoop so low. Right? I wished he would. I would swear at him and maybe even hit him but my mother would be fine and I would have worried in vain. "Oh God, oh God... Oh God." Night was falling fast but I didn't care. I rushed out of the house and flagged down the first taxi I saw. If anything happened to my mother, how would I cope with the pain, the guilt. If anything happened... Thoughts consumed me and filled my head with scenarios that were probably too far fetched but seemed feasible at that moment. Panic had taken over me and my hands shook terribly as I contemplated calling Nate. What would I say? What was I trying to find out? "No, no..." "Is there a problem?" The taxi driver was looking at me through the rearview mirror and I ave
