HER YOUNGER BABY DADDY Chapter 24; I love villains
Coraline's POV " Excuse me? I don't think I heard you clearly." I certainly hope I didn't because there's no way I'm spending Christmas day with Elijah's grandfather, from what I've read about him on the internet, he was a tyrant. "I'm sure you did but just in case, I'll say it again, we're going to be at my grandfather's house on Christmas day. He's requested our presence, he wants to meet the woman who's carrying the heir to the Warren empire." I almost snorted, 'Requested my presence' more like he ordered that Elijah bring me. If I refused to go, I wondered if Simon Warren would send guards to the house to haul my ass to his house. "But why? Why does he need to meet me? It's not like I have anything to offer him. We have nothing in common." The man was a trillionaire while I was a measly barista who just happened to be carrying his great-grandchild. "Kitten, it's no use trying to look for a way out of this because it's not going to work." Elijah rested his back on the railing.

Coraline's POVThe car ride to Simon Warren's house was silent as it was loud, silent as Elijah and I didn't say a word, loud as my sweet oblivious daughter sang along to Christmas songs that blared from my Spotify playlist which was connected to the car's speakers through Bluetooth.Elijah pulled up in front of a normal one-story house in the suburban province. It was probably the most normal house I've ever seen and definitely not where I expected Simon Warren to live."Are you sure we're at the right address?" I asked unbuckling my seatbelt. Elijah was in the back seat helping Becca out of her car seat, " I think I would know the house I grew up in."" But…but this can't be it. How?" Elijah carried Becca out of the car and set her on his hip as she refused to walk. I reluctantly got out of the car and picked up the bottle of wine that I had stolen from Elijah's wine cellar."Why are you finding it hard to believe that this is where my grandfather lives?"I gave him a bewildered l

Coraline's POV "I'm so sorry, I didn't know I said that out loud." " It's fine, you deserved to know." He waved me off and continued to look at the pictures. "Lina, my daughter, fell into the wrong crowd when she was a teenager, a good-for-nothing named Marvin knocked her up. Her mother and I begged her to stay with us so that we could help her but she was too obsessed with Marvin and she didn't want to leave him. We asked her to give us Elijah but she also refused. She and Marvin had a toxic and combustive relationship that I knew was one day going to kill them and it did but I found out about her death too late because they moved to another state, and changed their names so when they died, child services couldn't find any next of kin to take in Elijah so they put him in foster care. He…he had a horrible time there before I found him and brought him home." Simon took the picture of him and Elijah off the wall and traced his finger on the glass. Damn, I always assumed Elijah wa

Elijah's POVDamnit, what the hell was I doing? I watched as Coraline got Becca out of her car seat and took her inside the house. I stayed in the car needing a minute to gather my thoughts. What the fuck was actually wrong with me? I shouldn't be getting distracted like this and I most definitely should not be falling for Coraline's charm.I ran my hands through my already tousled hair and took in a deep breath before getting out of the car. I couldn't keep kissing Coraline, as much as her luscious lips were calling to me, I had to stop it. It was messing with my plans. I carried the gifts into the house, Coraline wasn't in the living room or kitchen so she was probably putting Becca down for a nap in her room, my feet made their way to Becca's room and as just as I was about to grip the door handle, the door opened wide and Coraline walked out. Her wide eyes locked on mine."Eli! What's going on? Why are you here? Do you need something?" She rubbed her arms. I tipped my head towa

Coraline's POV While I had been showering, Elijah had called a doctor, he removed the sheets of my bed and replaced them with clean sheets. The doctor came to check me and confirmed my notions that I had had a miscarriage. Elijah berated the doctor about why I had a miscarriage but I had shut both of them out and instead covered myself with my duvet, sinking myself into the abyss.That was two days ago and since then I hadn't seen daylight, I had the curtains drawn out and not a flicker of light got into the room. I hadn't showered as well, I had barely gotten out of bed, what was the use, I felt no motivation to leave my bed, I didn't want to see anyone or anything so I chose to stay under the duvet.Elijah brought me food and water that I refused to eat or drink, he would leave them on my bedside table and they would be waiting for him when he returned later to pick them up.The door creaked but I didn't bother myself to lift my head, I knew who it was. Elijah cleared his throat as

Elijah's POV Fuck, fuck. Fuck, this was not how I envisioned this going. I wanted to tell Tyler first then let him break the news to Mei. I couldn't be the one to break the news to a pregnant woman that her best friend had miscarried. "Elijah, tell me you're joking. Tell me that you're just making banter with Tyler." Mei stood in front of me with her arms crossed over her chest, her eyes glassy. How the hell had she moved so fast? I sighed and ran my hand through my head, " I'm sorry Mei, I didn't want you to find out like this but it's true. Coraline miscarriage two days ago, she hasn't been feeling good so that's why I brought Becca here." Mei let out a loud sob and clutched her belly, shit, I couldn't afford for another baby to be lost. "No, no, no, God, not Coraline. God, please not Coraline." She started to slip but Tyler and I immediately caught her and set her down on the couch. "Mei baby, calm down," Tyler begged, squeezing her hand. " Mei, please, take in deep breath

Coraline's POVElijah Warren was one manipulative bastard, I finally saw how he became a billionaire, he was good at getting people to do what he wanted. From the moment the first piece of pancake, I knew I was gone. My stomach cried silently for more food and it took everything in me not to grab the fork from his hand and feed myself. God, what was I doing? Why was I wallowing in self-pity? Why was I hiding away from the real world? My baby was gone and she was never coming back, I had Becca to think about. I missed my baby girl so much, I missed having a purpose and a reason to get out of bed. I should get back into the real world, my problems weren't going to go away if I kept hiding and sooner or later Elijah was going to get tired of taking care of me and he would snap. 'Although I was still enjoying the care he was giving me these days, maybe I should continue acting the way I was for another day or two.' A sneaky thought popped into my head. What the fuck? When did I become

Elijah's POVJordan jerked, shocked at the volume of my voice, I could see the tension leave his shoulders, he was slowly beginning to trust me, fool."I'm sorry boss," Kia grunted, he turned to Jordan, " I'm sorry." "Jordan, do you accept his apology?" I watched him closely, wondering if he was going to be consumed by greed and refuse. If he refused Kia's apology, things were only going to get worse for him when I handed him over to Kia to finish up but if he accepted, I would make his death easy by killing him myself.He nodded, good boy. "So you said you are not a criminal, I accept your words. So why the hell are you here? There must be a reason why you're here." I flipped through the file like there was something important that I was searching for but I was actually giving him some minutes to get his lie ready."I didn't d…do an…anything wrong. I…I s…swear I didn't." He answered in a hoarse voice. He grimaced as he spoke, Kia must have crushed his windpipe while handling him.

HER YOUNGER BABY DADDY Chapter 64: Epilogue
1 year laterCoraline's POVIt was a balloon mayhem in the Warren mansion. Today was the twins' one-year birthday and it was already off to a disaster. I didn't know who had come up with the genius idea to blow up ten giant balloons and tie the hand of my son, Judah, to it. Now I had a semi-heart attack when I saw him floating in the backyard. Okay, he wasn't actually floating but his legs were no longer steady on the ground. Warren and his ridiculous friends, one whom my son had been named after had been in charge of getting the balloons ready but it seemed that had something else in mind. Something life-threatening and death-worthy, they just laughed and took pictures of him floating. They were having way too much fun with the helium pump and I was not having it."Elijah, bring my son down this instant. Get those ridiculous balloons off him before I get there." I shouted from the backdoor, immediately they swooped into action, Elijah grabbing Judah while the other guys found the sci

Elijah's POVJudah, Kia, and I were in one car, three of my men were in another car behind us, and Tyler and Gavin had stayed back. Gavin was still tracking Coraline's location, he was on the phone so he could tell us immediately if the location changed.Kia pulled up in front of a shabby bungalow on the outskirts of town, if Judah and Gavin hadn't shown up, I would never have been able to trace Coraline to this place.We got out of the car and approached the front door, every man had brought out their guns and we were ready to shout at anyone who wasn't Coraline. That had been my order, shout first, ask questions later.I tried to open the door but it was locked, I moved back a bit and then opened the door with a resounding right kick, breaking the lock.I rushed into the house, Judah and Kia following closely behind me, the living room was deserted, and I spotted Coraline's black purse on the crummy sofa which was a good sign that she was here. "There's no one in the kitchen," Juda
HER YOUNGER BABY DADDY Chapter 62: If I can't have you, no one can
Elijah's POVIt had been six hours since Mrs Smith informed me about Coraline's disappearance, I had my men out searching everywhere for Jeremy. I was reviewing all the places he usually frequented when I had my men watch him and he wasn't at any of them. It took Kia who was my hacker about an hour to track Coraline's phone. It had been tossed on the road, a few blocks away from the cemetery. I had moved Mrs Smith and Becca back to my grandfather's house, I wanted Becca somewhere I could keep my eyes on her. I had a feeling Jeremy was going to come after her and Coraline would never forgive me if Jeremy could get Becca and I would never be able to forgive myself. Right now I was lost, I had no leads on where Coraline was, I had exhausted all the clues I had and they all led to dead ends.Kia and my men were in the kitchen that was now our makeshift conference room. Tyler was here as well and had no idea who Kia and the other men were, he just assumed they were my security. My grandfa
HER YOUNGER BABY DADDY Chapter 61: Get away from me, you bastard
Elijah's POV"Well, you royally fucked up," Judah said from the other side of the call. I sighed and ran my hand over my face, tell me something I already didn't know."I told you then, I reminded you constantly that getting your revenge was going to end badly. Trust me, I've been there, it never ends well for the parties involved." He continued.I kissed my teeth, "I know, dude. I never knew I was going to end up falling in love with her. Everything is so messed up, I hurt Coraline so bad that she couldn't look me in the eye." I was seated on my childhood bed in my childhood room, I looked completely out of place with the grunge band posters on the wall and the large poster of Metallica covering almost half of the wall. God, judging from the kind of music I used to listen to, I must have been such a difficult and troubled teen. How did my grandfather and Mrs Smith survive living with me?I heard Judah shuffling paper from his side of the call. It was already evening here but it was s
HER YOUNGER BABY DADDY Chapter 60: You're pregnant, you shouldn't be stressing yourself
Coraline's POVI cried myself to sleep that night. Mrs Smith came over, she said Elijah had asked her to come and stay with us as I would need help with Becca. According to her, Elijah had shown up at his grandfather's house with a suitcase in her, looking like a puppy that had been kicked repeatedly.Janet made sure to emphasize that Elijah was sad, regretful, and wallowing in shame. I acted like I was hard of hearing and couldn't hear a word she was saying. Janet completely took over the operations of the house, she let me get the alone time that I needed and took care of Becca. She brought me food and although I had no appetite, I knew I would be punishing my babies by not eating so I forced myself to eat. Elijah called but I had handed over my phone to Janet so only she and Becca spoke to him. For two days, I was a complete shadow of myself, I barely got out of bed except to eat and pee, I realized that I was gradually falling into a depressive state and I hated Elijah for doin
HER YOUNGER BABY DADDY Chapter 59: I love you too, Daddy
Coraline's POVI raised my hand, I was not in the mood to hear his excuses because I knew Elijah, he was a sweet talker, he would always have something to say. "Stop. Stop it please, it's exactly what it looks like. I'm not stupid, neither am I blind. I can't believe I ever trust you. I can't believe I actually thought I was falling in love with you. What a big joke. Did your grandfather really say he was going to cut you out of his will or was that just a lie to get me involved with you? You know what, I don't care. I'm done." I snatched my phone from his hand, turned, and rushed out of his room as fast as I could. I entered Becca's room and slammed the door, I hurried to her wardrobe, got out a suitcase, and began to fill it with clothes, toys, and everything Becca would need for some days. I grabbed a backpack and put in some extra things. I wore the backpack and began to roll the suitcase out of the room. Elijah was waiting outside, his eyes widened when he saw the bag in my han
HER YOUNGER BABY DADDY Chapter 58: Coraline, I can explain
Coraline's POVI hadn't heard anything from my stalker in about two months and I was starting to think he had forgotten about me and had moved on. Jeremy had been away for over a month now and we were holding a welcome back party for him. He had gone back home to stay with his mother who had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Luckily it was quickly detected, she had gotten surgery and was now better. So both of our pastry chefs were out, Mei had to call in a favor from one of her culinary friends and they came with a staff and helped out for the month.I was now eight months pregnant and Elijah had officially banned me from working behind the counter as the barista so my new role was being the manager. Elijah preferred if I didn't work at all but I refused, I couldn't just leave the cafe when Mei was absent and Jeremy as well, it would have been too hard on Louise to keep the cafe running. We had hired no hands to help out in the cafe and increased our coffee stations as the cafe was

Elijah's POVFriday rolled by and we were currently seated in the courtroom listening to the lawyers use legal jargon as they went back and forth with each other. Coraline was shivering next to me but I held her hand tight and drew circles on her lap to calm her down. I had my gaze fixed on Reginald who was clad in a black robe looking regal and supreme but I knew better. He made eye contact a few times and I made to smile at him, acknowledging him. He always looked away quickly and stared at the papers on his desk.I tuned out the happenings in the court at some points as I had no idea what they were talking about and also since I knew there was no way we were going to lose. I came back to reality when Coraline began to shake my shoulders, crying. My heart sank, my first thought was Reginald had pulled a fast one on me, my second thought was to get my assistant to send out the videos of Reginald's son, and my third thought was to call Kia and get him to dispose of good old Reggie.Co
HER YOUNGER BABY DADDY Chapter 56: Power will get you everything you want
Elijah's POV"I got the information that you wanted," Tyler announced as he entered my office, he waved the file in his hand. He got to the desk and dropped in front of me."Thanks." I collected the file, opened it, and flipped through it."Why do you need it? What are you going to do with the information of the judge in charge of Coraline's case?" He sat down and crossed his legs.I lifted a shoulder and dropped it, "Nothing much, I want to run a background check on him and see if he's reliable. For what it's worth, Blossom could have bribed him to rule in their favor. "Tyler frowned, " I highly doubt that, Judge Reginald is an upright man from what I've heard. I don't believe he can be easily bribed."I snickered, oh how naive Tyler was. I picked up my phone and shot a text to Kia to investigate Judge Reginald, I needed a full background check on him and his family, I wanted eyes and ears on them every minute of the day. I also wanted to know if he had met with Blossom recently. Ki
