Jaxon entered the room and looked at both her and Kim. It took him only several seconds to react and he rushed up to Ruby with worry etched in his features.He hadn't paid Kim any mind and she thought of how shamelessly he could act in front of her like he hadn't just gotten her sister pregnant."Ruby, what is it? Why are you crying?" He asked her but she could only glare back at him in return. She had been crying over him since she found out and the least he could do was be honest with her. Instead, here he was, acting like nothing had happened. She wondered how she hadn't noticed any signs when she had been living under the same roof. The thought of her sister being her husband's mistress left a bitter taste in her mouth."Ruby say something, what is it? You know you can talk to me." Jaxon said softly then made a show of trying to take her into his arms. She exploded at that, not wanting his filthy hands to touch her."Don't touch me!" She told him fiercely, and she prided herself

There was pin-drop silence in the room as Ruby and Kimberly stared at Jaxon wide-eyed.Kimberly was shocked as Jaxon’s wires kept resounding in her ears. She couldn’t believe what she just heard. How was that possible?She glared at Jaxon angrily and walked over to him.“Stop lying! Why are you trying to push this on someone else?” Kimberly grabbed his arm and stared up at him with annoyance clear in her eyes.“Get your filthy hands off me if you want to see the light of the day again.” Kimberly felt a shiver of fright go up her spine but she ignored it and tightened her hold around his arm.“What do you mean by that? Why are you lying? Is it because of her? Have you forgotten how sweetly and tenderly you caressed me that day while we made love? Why are you denying our child?” Kimberly screamed in his face and Jaxon angrily clenched his fists in anger.“I’m not the father of your bastard you delusional bitch! What did you think? That you would drug me and trap me with a child? You mus

“No! It can’t be!...it’s not possible!” Kimberly muttered as her whole body shook uncontrollably.“He can’t do that to me. He must be lying. No! This can’t happen to me. I can’t be pregnant for a driver, Jaxon is just pulling my legs. He must be joking.” She was in tears as she kept shaking her head in denial. She refused to believe that her well-thought-out plan went wrong. Everything was working out in her favor so what went wrong?Ruby felt her blood boil in anger. The hurt and betrayal burned like acid in her veins, her hands curling into fists of rage as she relived the moment of discovery. She had called her husband a liar and supported her sister blindly only to find out that she had been used and betrayed.She felt like a fool, her heart twisted into a hard, cold knot of resentment.“I can’t be pregnant for a lowlife. This is not how this was supposed to play out. Jaxon is supposed to become mine.” Ruby felt bitter as each word that came out of Kim’s mouth reminded her of th

The sky had long since dimmed and faded from a blue to an orange. And now it was pitch black outside, and Jaxon was a no-show. Ruby was curled up in the same spot on a chair in the living room, and she didn't know how many hours had passed since then.She'd been crying for hours too. Her eyes were puffy and her vision was temporarily blurred. She had even run out of tears and was sniffling quietly.How could she have been so stupid? Why had she decided to believe Kim? A thousand and one thoughts ran through her mind as she recalled what had gone down between her and Jaxon. Why didn't she trust him? And now the relationship they had both suffered for was in shambles. She didn't even know where they stood anymore.Kim had told her that she had slept with Jaxon and fallen pregnant, and as naive as one could be, she had foolishly believed her without a second thought. She didn't know or even think that Kim would possibly lie to her. And she had been quick to paint her husband bad and sh

Days passed painfully slow and Ruby didn't know what to do anymore. She had hardly seen Jaxon because he was always busy, at the office, or was just somewhere that wasn't where she was. Their relationship had deteriorated and Ruby didn't know how to revive it.It was like they had gone back to square one where she loved Jaxon but he was always cold to her. He always claimed to be busy and avoided her any chance he got. He didn't kiss her anymore or hold her in his arms, she didn't even remember when they had hugged last. He'd stopped calling her his Gem as well. And that close relationship they once had seemed to be so far away. It saddened her to think about how many steps back they had gone in their relationship because of the whole pregnancy fiasco.The only thing Jaxon still did was cook for her, so maybe all hope hadn't been lost and he still cared for her. She wondered when their relationship would go back to normal and she worried it would never be the same as the chasm betw

It had been several days since the incident with Kim and Jaxon had refused to speak to Ruby. He had refused to utter even a single word to her. He didn’t look at her if it wasn’t necessary and he avoided staying in the same room as her.With each passing day, Ruby felt like she was being suffocated like her breath had been stolen from her. She felt like she had used her own hands to destroy the relationship that they had worked so hard to build.She felt pained whenever Jaxon passed her without saying a word. Her husband who used to worship the ground she walked on was now ignoring her.Ruby’s heart had shattered a thousand times as she sobbed uncontrollably. Her whole body shook as she cradled her head between her legs and cried.What if Jaxon wanted to leave her? Ruby shook her head as she cried.She can’t live one more day without hearing his voice, without him accepting her apology. She felt so stupid and useless. Jaxon had never asked her for anything and he had been loyal to her

“I’m sorry.” Ruby tightened her hold around him.“I’m so sorry.” Ruby sadly mumbled. Jaxon sighed as he softly started to pat her head.“I’m so sorry I caused you so much pain. I feel so stupid.” Ruby whispered and her whole body started to shake as her eyes teared up.Jaxon groaned as he trailed his hands up and down her back in a soothing way. If there was anything he hated more than seeing her in danger it was seeing her cry.“I’m so sorry for being such a bad wife. I should have known better and trusted you. You have never given me a reason not to trust you and I have messed up so badly at the first time of being put to the test. I should have given you the benefits of the doubt and listened to you but I was quick to judge.” Ruby was deeply saddened and disappointed in herself. She couldn’t believe that she had picked her sister’s words over his in a heartbeat.Kim had lied to her on so many occasions so why did she trust her so blindly? Why did she break the heart of her husband

Kim paced around her and Ruby's childhood home in angry steps. Why was this happening to her? How could it even happen? She had planned so meticulously and when she thought everything was right on track and she was about to come out victorious, it all blew up in her face.The familiar walls of the house would have welcomed her in any other setting. But just the fact that Ruby also stayed here and there were traces of her everywhere made her want to rip the house into shreds. She'd fled here after the situation had gone a different path than she had expected. Just thinking of the fact she was pregnant with some... Some driver's baby made her want to gag. She'd get rid of it, that's for sure. There was no way she was having a poor man's child.Jaxon was the one who caused her to be in this situation, and she had run out of curses to use on him. It was all because of Ruby too, she thought as she fumed. She hated Damon, the stupid driver who'd gotten her pregnant, Jaxon, and most especial
