Bianca's POV I remained calm although a part of me wanted to say, "Charles... Is that you?" But instead, I waited to see if I would hear the voice. This was a female's restroom and I could feel a male aura around. "Bianca, are you here?" I heard Charles voice and immediately let out a long breath that I didn't think I've been holding in. I didn't know whether to feel grateful or not. "Did you bring the tampons?" I asked. "Yes." Charles and said handed to me a bag of tampons. "Wait, when did you get this?" I asked. "Just now after you told me that you don’t have any tampons, next time... I'm sure that you'll bring some along," He said curtly I cleared my throat and face slapped myself before taking a few steps forward, I changed into the dress that Charles had got for me. The gown was so pretty that I couldn't stop grinning. "Why did you get this kind of dress for me? Isn't it too expensive?" I asked, frowning. "I got the dress for you because it caught my e
Charles POV “What's the matter?” I asked and bend down to support her with my hand. “What's wrong? Do you need me to take you to the hospital?” I asked. I was worried but I tried my best to keep a stern expression. “My stomach… oh my God, I'm finding it hard to breathe” she cried. I immediately took her hand and started to caress her back, “stop touching me like that! Take your hands off me! What's your problem? How many times have I told you not to touch me as you like?” She yelled and I arched my brows, frowning. “Wow, have the guts! Damn, I'm really stunned,” I said. “I'm trying to help you here,” as I said these words. My heart arched but I needed to act tough so that she wouldn't think that I was feeling anything from her. I recalled yesterday when she asked me if I love her, my heart arched. I didn't know what to say as response. I swallowed hard and bite my lips before moving back for a second, “You will definitely chase me with your annoying attitude! Tell me
Charles POV “What do you want to use the hot water for ?” She asked. “To press your head so that you will stop feeling the pains” I said and she didn't respond. Rather, she clutched her stomach even tighter before letting out a low growl. “If there's something that I can do then you can just say it, you mentioned that Gideon does something that helps, just tell me” I said in a low voice. “Don't worry, I don't need your help, I beat the pain until my husband answers my call,” she said causing me to face slap my self. “I think you'll have to force yourself to bath and change into new clothes, unfortunately… I'm afraid because of the way you're bleeding… I need to take you the hospital” I said and she immediately shook her head. “Hell no… I don't want to do to any hospital. Please I'm fine here,” she said acting stubborn. “This is how my period normally flows on the first day and bedsides, the pad you got for me are all so light. I couldn't find anyone with heavy floor” she
Charles POV I wanted to look away because I wanted to keep to my words and not touch her again but it was almost impossible because I wanted to touch her boobs. "What are you staring at?" She asked the moment she caught me staring at her chest. I swallowed hard and then moved back before turning around, "Are you done with what you're doing?" I asked and then cleared my throat. "You can take the towel," I added before hanging it on the shower. I walked out of the room and then walked towards my couch. She must have noticed that my little brother aroused. Just then, I started to hear footsteps approach the room. I cleared my throat and thought to myself, "who could that be?" Only Elsie knew where the key of the house was. I quickly walked towards the direction of my door and as soon as I placed my hand on the doorknob, I heard a knock on the door, one that caught my attention. I peeped through the pinhole and my eyes fell on Elsie. I opened the door for her and before
Bianca's pov "Is this how I used to sound?" I asked myself. The sound of the both of them, making love to each other in the room was annoying. I swallowed hard, trying to remain calm because I was hating every bite of it. After experiencing this, I don't think that I'll even want to go back to Charles for any reason. After waiting there for what felt like hours, I heard the door of the room open, "do you want to spend the night here?" Charles asked and my eyes immediately widened. I've been naked under a towel for long, I did the even know what the time was saying and here Charles was, thinking of how to make Elsie stay. "No, I really have something to do tonight and the only reason why I came here is because I wanted to check up on you," She said. I knew the reason was because Charles asked about period on the call. Just then, I noticed that they was silence, "Why did you change your bedsheet," She suddenly asked. "Nothing, don't I change my bedsheet?" Charles aske
Bianca’s POV "what do you mean? Hold on, you're insulting me?" Charles asked. "No, I'm just talking to you, not even communicating. I'm not going to let you keep blackmailing me," I said and Charles chuckled softly he stretched his hand and caressed my face gently. "You think I'll fall for what? What do you think Gideon would do if you walk up to him and tell him that you that you have been sleeping with his brother even after when he caught us?" Charles paused and arched his brows. I was left speechless for a second because I didn't know what to say neither did I know the response to give. "You're trying to get into my head again! I don't care what you think at the moment, just let me out of here, please," I begged because I was already becoming extremely tired. "Okay, I will. But..." "But what?" I asked, by brows twitching. "You know what I want to tell you. Just let's have it and you can leave," he said. Charles is very inconsiderate. "Did you forget? I told you t
Bianca's POV As Charles walked towards me, I felt irritated, especially after he licked his lips, He was standing just a foot away from me and then he took his hand up to my face and let out a low growl before saying in a low voice, “You don't know the kind of power that you hold between your legs,” Charles said, making feel even more irritated. “Why do you have to sound so irritating?” I asked. In truth, as he was so close to me, I bite my lips, it was really hard for me to resist Charles and most times, I'm dumbfounded. My self control always leaves me immediately in close to Charles, it sometimes feels like I'm hypnotized. “Did I just see you lick your lips?” Charles asked. “You didn't see well, trust me!” I stuttered and cleared my throat. Charles chuckles softly and took my hand before pushing me to the bed, “you're so bold. The kind of confidence you now hold is alarming,” Charles said and swallowed hard but I wasn't concerned about any of these because the only
Charles’s pov I saw the look on my face and it pained me that I had to hurt her with such news. Even as I talked to her, she felt disheartened by the news. “What's on your mind?” I asked and cleared my throat, “So many things are on my mind, I honestly just don't want to talk about them” she said, sounding more calm that she was a few minutes ago. I leaned closer to her, she's still the same Bianca that I know. I've always wanted to kiss and hold her close, I always want to wake up to her by my side but it's almost impossible because she's married to my brother. “Why are you staring at me like that? What exactly is the matter?” she asked, “You mean to ask what's going through my mind right?” I asked. “Yes… you're just staring at me like you haven't seen me before. I've heard what you wanted to say though and honestly, I'm not interested in whatever bullshit you have to say about Gideon. “Whether you chose to believe or not, I just told you the truth.” I said but she s
Bianca's POVOne month later.One month had passed, and we still hadn't talked to Gideon for a while now.Gideon left the country after the whole incident and came back three days ago.I hoped not to see him around soon because I didn't know how to possibly face him.Meanwhile, aside from that, everything else was going quite fine. I didn't resume work at Charles' company; rather, I became my own boss back at my art gallery.Charles and I had a court wedding a week after I divorced Gideon, and ever since, he has been treating me right. I have had no reason to complain."Hey honey, what do you think about having lunch at Rizzo Restaurant?" Charles asked as he straightened his tie on his neck."That sounds nice. I don't see anything wrong with it," I said, and Charles leaned closer to me and kissed my forehead."Okay, hon, I'll pick you up by 6," he said before taking his phone and walking out of the room.I sat on the bed for a while. The pregnancy hormones were making me feel so lazy.
Bianca's POVI nudged Charles, signaling that he should drop me down.He did so. I froze, not knowing what to say or do.Gideon chuckled and shook his head."I'll have your bags brought to you, Bianca," he said, acting like he didn't want to talk things out."Brother," Charles stepped forward.Gideon paused and raised an eyebrow. "Brother?""You've got nerves, all of it! I can't believe that you have the guts to call me your brother when you stabbed me countless times. You're so unbelievable," Gideon said.He still couldn't process the number of things that had happened in these past few days.I stepped forward, not knowing why, but I felt it was the right thing to do at the moment. "I want to say thank you for everything that you did. I mean, I'm more than grateful, and I'm sorry that...""You don't have to. Get going already. I feel more disappointed that I was dumb and blinded all this while. Do you know how much I trusted you?" he asked, causing me to swallow hard.I knew he trust
Bianca's POV Immediately after he ended the call, I turned to Charles, who heard everything.The divorce agreement was back at the house, I was silent for a while before finally opening my mouth to speak, "Tomorrow, I'll go over to the house to sign the divorce agreement." I lay on the bed, closing my eyes, trying to sleep.This was really want I've always wanted, to be with Charles with no guilt."I'm sorry honey," Charles said, caressing my shoulder."Sorry for what?" I asked, but he didn't say anything. The night was quite long. The next morning, I got ready, and Charles had to take the whole day off.We headed straight to Gideon's penthouse, and I signed the divorce agreement. This was the only reason why he hadn't come to his house to sleep.I gave him a call, but he didn't answer.Charles couldn't stop caressing my shoulder like he needed support.Gideon finally answered the call, having been called for the fifth time."Have you signed the papers?" That was the first thing he a
Gideon's povI was trying to settle down in the hotel room but nothing felt like home. My heart was racing and at the same time, I was worried of how Bianca would feel snd how she was doing.Why should I even care about her? Did she care for me? Did she care hoe I'll feel when she went ahead to fuck someone else, oh my God, scratch that!She didn't go to just any body, she went to my brother to get her pregnant.After the cleaner at the house came to me to inform me about what she had seen, I was turned.She doesn't sleep at the house with us, she only comes to clean and she noticed something as explicit as that, not once but twice.I still couldn't fathom any of it, where had I gone wrong exactly.After she told me about what she noticed her brother and wife doing, I was forced to keep an eye because I didn't want to believe her didn't mean that I had forgotten about it.I needed to be sure that I didn't call the lady a liar in vain.At the same, I was wondering why she hasn't told me
Bianca's POVI didn't have to turn to know who was standing by the door."What is going on here? Charles, I thought you promised me," Elsie's voice filled the entire room.I stepped back, unable to even gaze at her. The shame and disgrace written all over my face were alarming."What are you doing here? Haven't we talked about this? You're supposed to inform me before coming to my office," Charles said.The aura in the office had changed, and I felt beads of sweat forming on my forehead. I was already feeling so tired and grumpy because of my pregnancy, so I decided to walk to the chair next to me."What are you trying to do, Bianca? You know I've known about this for quite some time now, but there’s been no evidence. Was this the reason why you decided to start working as his assistant, pretending that you'd love to do a white-collar job?" Elsie asked, but I was silent.She had all the right to yell, but not at me. At the same time, I didn’t mind."Hey, Bianca. Stop pointing at her.
Bianca's POVI was dumbfounded as I watched him walk out of the room and yet had nothing to say.I wanted to go after him, but I just remained on the spot.This was the least thing that I expected. Although I planned on issuing a divorce agreement to him out of guilt, I was still contemplating it and was only 60 percent sure that it was going to be my move.Running out of the room after finally being able to move a limb, I started to wonder where Gideon had gone."Where's my husband?" The word "husband" was heavy on my lips. The realization that I still felt part of Gideon's life hit me so much.Maybe if I had issued the divorce, it wouldn't have hurt this much. I would have been prepared to face everything, but I didn't think I was prepared now.He was not in the house, so I decided to give him a call, but my call ended up getting declined."Where are you?" I asked."I'm crashing in a hotel for a few days. I don't think I can stay in the house with you. Sign the divorce agreement, th
Bianca's POV "You say it like you have any choice," she said, sounding very rude. I went to sit with the others, my body feeling pain almost all over. I checked my phone every minute and hour to see if I received any call or text, but I didn't. seconds turned into minutes, and I was getting tired of waiting. I decided to ask his secretary if she had any idea of where he would be at the moment or when he would come. If I had access to my system in any way, I would have been able to know his schedule for today, but unfortunately, I no longer work here, so there's no way that I could know. "Hey, do you know where he went? Or perhaps, is he in a meeting?" I asked. "He's in his office," she informed nonchalantly, without even gazing at me. "Wait, what? Charles has been in his office?" I asked, surprised. It was very normal that Charles hadn't responded to me until now because whenever he is in his office, he is always busy and doesn't have any time for his office. "Yes," she respond
Bianca's POVAs if luck was on my side today, Dr. Ryan stepped out of her office with her bag. She immediately spotted me, looking so distressed."Hello... Bianca," she remembered my name."Do you have an appointment with me today?" she asked, but I shook my head before saying,"I don't, but please, if you don't mind... I'd love to treat you to lunch so we can have a conversation.""I like how you put it. A conversation," she smiled."Why not? Let's go.""I don't have my car, though, if you don't mind us using a taxi," I said."Do not worry, we can take my car."We got to the parking lot of the institute. I hopped into her car, and then she drove toward a restaurant.When we got there, I got out of the car and we both walked into the restaurant.I must admit that Dr. Ryan has good taste. I didn't know a place like this existed in the city."This place is cozy; you must really like cozy places," I said.She nodded. I recalled that yesterday in her office, she informed me that the reaso
Bianca's POV I waited for Charles's message as I slowly ate the food in front of me. Regardless of how dizzy I felt, I still ate the food sluggishly. Unfortunately, I waited in vain because I got no response from Charles. I was too scared or perhaps guilty to go back to the room, so I decided to crash on the couch in the sitting room. Closing my eyes, I fell asleep immediately. I didn't do much work today at the office, and yet I was feeling too tired that I fell asleep the moment my body hit the bed. I opened my eyes, feeling pressed. I walked toward the bedroom, not wanting to use another toilet. I got into the room only to see that Charles was no longer on the bed, making me wonder where he went. Not pondering much on the matter, I walked toward the restroom and was about to open the door when I heard the shower running. Holy molly! Gideon was in the restroom. I quickly checked the time and realized that it was past 6 already. I didn't bother to go out of the room; rather, I
