Ex wife, let's give our love a second chance. Chapter Thirty Two.
Fabian's POV.“I'm on the app cause I'm looking for a lover,” She states unabashedly.“Okay,” I nod, digesting the term lover, “What about your exes?” “My exes are none of your business. What about your exes? How about we talk about them?” Honestly, she's more approachable than you are.“I’ve only had one,” I wasn't a Virgin even when I met Pearl, even if she was when I met her. I was not a Playboy either but I'd had some amount of experience with sex. But Pearl was the first woman I was committed to.“Wow! Well, I've had seven.” She replies.“Seven? That's quite a number, so why did you break up with ‘Seven’ of them?” “You tell me why you broke up with yours first,” My phone beeps again. I almost ignore it but I can't, I just raise my phone to have a look. It's another text from my secretary.[Mr. Fabian, I have to go to the hospital, where are you?]I lock the screen and place the phone back.“She um…she cheated, there were other issues surrounding the relationship that made us s

Fabian's POV.The line goes silent. I curse under my breath. Stephanie has fucking blown my….“No, sir,” Greta stammers. With a release of breath, I cut the call. I'm fucked, I'm so, so, so, so fucked.I go back to my seat with Megan. “Sorry for the interruption, just something important I needed to handle.” “It's okay. With the way you look, I thought maybe your house was on fire or something.” She giggles.I force a chuckle, “Actually, it's something different. So…” I cross my fingers on the table, “...After all you said about your exes I don't think we are compatible. No need to make me the ninth one,” “What do you mean we are not compatible? You talk differently than you text,” She accuses. That's because I'm not the person you've been talking to.I clear my throat, “You said you broke up with your ninth…I mean the sixth boyfriend because he had a small Dick, and I'm sorry to break this to you but I do have a small dick,” “Oh…” She exclaims, her hand flies up to cover her mouth

Fabian's POV.“I can't get married, at least not now,” I retort. “I don't care, what is it that you're afraid of? Commitment? You were committed to your wife weren't you, why can't you be committed to a woman having your child? It's been a month since I found out I'm pregnant, you keep me a secret. At the office, you pretend like there's nothing between us. You won't even look at me…” In her voice, I can hear her pain, the helplessness, the regret. I'm familiar with these aches but how do we help ourselves when we are not on the same page? “I'm not demanding that you love me all of a sudden, but just acknowledge me. That's all I'm asking. I'm carrying your unborn baby. You cannot do that,” She opens the door. “Stephanie! Wait!” I try to stop her from going down.“Don't bother, Boss.” She places emphasis on the words ‘Boss’, flashing me a forced smile, “I know my way back to the office, I don't want to be anywhere near you now. Please. Be ready to see my parents tomorrow.” She yanks

Fabian's POV.Saturday.“Fabian, Fabian,” My mother calls out in a hushed tone behind my door. I go over and open it.“Stephanie's parents are here!” She whisper-yells. She'd come over early this morning, so she'd be here when Stephanie and her parents came. “Let me throw on a shirt, I'll be down in a minute,” I'm wearing only a vest and red shorts.“Alright. Be quick,” She leaves and I close the door. Heading for my closet, I pick up a dark t-shirt and throw it on. I tried to contact Stephanie last night and apologize to her about all that went down yesterday but she didn't pick up. I get the feeling she won't even be here today. I take one glance at the mirror. To check if the shirt is worn right, And my eyes spot something…Her earrings. Laying in the small space in front of the mirror. ‘Now’s not the time, focus on what you have at hand.’ A voice internally berates me.This is true, I've always considered Pearl in anything I do. Her feelings. Her happiness, I've always put h

Pearl's POV. Morning sun streams into my face, my eyes flutter open.Waking up on a Sunday morning. I feel so exhausted even when I didn't do anything that should make me this exhausted.Maybe I know why I'm exhausted. I hold my abdomen. “Good morning, Sunshine,” a small smile touches my lips. “Another day to be sneaky,” I toss the sheets off my body, I drop my feet on the floors. Walk into the bathroom to do my business. When I'm done, I take a look at myself. I slept in pink drawstring shorts and a white see-through singlet.I drag the singlet up to have a look at my body. I've longed for this feeling. To wake up in the morning, and know that my baby is growing inside me. What do I do now? I've had a hard time telling Philip the truth. I don't know who to trust with this secret. Who to tell.I let go of my grip on the singlet and walk out of the toilet. I go straight to the kitchen to have some milk. The aroma of different food spices assaults my nose as I enter the kitchen. My

Fabian's POV.Monday.“Fabian!” My mother walks through the doors of my office when I'm talking to a client.I facepalm, “Mother, I am currently in the middle of something…” “Have you seen the news?!” She asks. Anger and devastation take another color on her face. My mother and I may not agree on a lot of things but the last thing I want is for her to be distressed.“What happened?” I ask, rising from behind the desk.“Pearl is Tucker Hughes's daughter!” I'm stunned immobile, speechless. “How do you know that?”“Philip's family announced their son's engagement and his betrothed fiancee is your ex-wife and she's the only daughter of the Hughes household.” She pauses before saying, “Did you know that all long?” My head is suddenly in an overdrive, “What? That's not possible, Pearl said she doesn't have a family. There's no way she's his daughter.” “Why don't you pick up your phone and see for yourself, I knew that girl was a lying bitch but how could she?” “Mr. Fabian, I see you're

Pearl's POV.Monday.My legs almost wobble when I see my ex-husband and his mother standing in front of Betty's table, but I quickly hide behind the nearest table so they don't see me.I didn't know Betty understood sign language that fast because I didn't know what she told them and poof! They'd disappeared. Betty is my life saver this morning.The first question I asked myself once I saw them was, why are they here? To cause more chaos in my life. Then I remember! They must've seen the news, and Fabian must be looking for me to express his disappointment in person. I don't need to hear whatever he thinks he has to say. I did betray him. When I come out of my hiding place after I'm sure they've gone, I dust my arm and hair that I stuck under the table.“Pearl, what did you do to that man? Because the fire in his eyes when he said ‘Tell her Fabian Barlow was here’ is no joke. It was intense.” I smile tightly, “it's a long story. You'll get bored.” “Na.” She waves me off, “I don't

Pearl's POV.Closing my room door, I turn to move but once I hear “Pearl,” I pause in my tracks the moment I hear my name. It's not just about hearing my name. I know it's my Dad. He strides towards me from a near distance in the hallway while I'm standing at the front of my room door.“Dad, Good morning,” I readjust my bag over my shoulders. “You're not going to work today,” I want to ask what I've done but he puts his hand in his pocket and I just wait for what he's about to say. He brings out a card, “Here, take this,” I stretch my hand and take the card. “I've called HR to let them know you're not coming to work. Go and do some shopping with the card, I have somewhere to take you later this evening,” at first I'm confused, then shocked and overwhelmed. My father has been very strict with me since I came back home. He'd give me work overload and not one approval have I ever gotten from anything I did and all of a sudden he's giving me the day off? That's strange.“Thanks, Dad,”

Fabian's POV.After picking my Mom from the cell, I don't need to ask her why she did what she did because she won't give me a reasonable answer.

Pearl's POV.Ever Since my conversation with Philip, I'd asked myself questions. Deep, important questions that I've never really stopped to ask myself. Questions like, what do I want? What's the next step? After a divorce so devastating and heartbreaking after leaving a man you've learned to love and depend on all your life. I can't have this baby and have Philip, I've already tasted his patience enough. He's been kind to me, so I did something. I called the Doctor and asked her if it would be possible to have this abortion before Saturday. That's my engagement party. He'll lose his mind if he finds out about this baby. He's trusted me. A luxury I shouldn't have from him, given my history with his family. When I just think about him, in all of this, I don't want to hurt him. I don't. He trusts me, I don't want to break that trust. I wish there was a better way out of this situation, I'll take it without blinking twice.If I fail my dad and God forbid he sends me away, Now he's trus

Pearl's POV.“Hi,” I say once I climb onto the stool next to Philip.“Pearl,” His eyes sparkle. “Thank you for joining me,” the sides of his cheek deepens revealing his dimples. He's dressed casually, in a T-shirt and jeans. Just like me.“It's My pleasure,” I say.“So, what would you like to have?” He asks, looking between the ready-at-our-service waiter. He has ordered a drink for himself.“Please, if they have water I'd like to have water for now.” “Okay,” Philip nods, not immensely satisfied with my answer but he signals the waiter to bring it.The waiter goes to the fridge, retrieves a can of water and drops it in front of me.“Thank you,” I say to him but he doesn't wait and goes to the other side of the counter to serve his waiting customers.The bar is filled with people. Neon lights light up the places from corners. Low chattering mixed with low music fills the place.“If you're not okay, sitting here. We could go down to one of the tables,” Philip chirps.“It's okay, I like

Pearl's POV.After confronting Stephanie, the bubbling energy I had somewhere in me dissipated. Every other thing that happened from then on around me has just been a blur.I hold tightly on the last string of my self-control, not to give in to the anger and bitterness that I'm feeling and do something I'll regret later. That was why he was distant, he'd been sleeping with his secretary and yet I was the cheating and unfaithful wife. He'd been intimate with her, while I was left alone at home. Wallowing in pain and hurt, longing for him to come home. His side of the bed grew cold, for days, weeks, months. And the last time we got intimate the next thing he said after he came down from his high was ‘Pearl, give me a child’ I'd never forget that.I felt guilty and useless when I saw the pain in his eyes. I so wanted to be pregnant that minute, just to see the smile I'd longed for. For us to be happy again and become the couple we used to be.Not long after, he'd kicked me out after bri
