I love how my relationship with Robert is, I am so grateful I met this playboy. We both are good for each other, we bring out the best versions of each other.“The doctor also said that the cause of my bleeding may be us having sex. He had a medical explanation that I can not quite remember,” I explain to him and he rolls his eyes.“Oh, so because I tricked you, you want to try to do the same to me? I won’t fall for it, sweetheart,” Robert chuckles.“No, I am being serious, you can ask the doctor if you want,” I say seriously and he squints his eyes at me in suspicion.“So we can’t have sex until you have the baby?” He inquires and I nod.“Oof,” He says and I smile.“Can’t be that hard, can it? Just a couple of months without sex,” I shrug as I say this.After a few hours, the doctor informs us that I would be free to go home the next morning. I am some medicines to take with me when I go home, and also a small list of light exercises that I can do to stay healthy.I spend the night w
In some minutes, we reach the house and James drives us into the compound when the automated gates open. Though I have my suspicions about Cara, I certainly don’t have proof, so I best keep my opinions to myself.James brings the car to a stop as he parks it and we all exit. Carlos and the others enter the house, leaving Robert and me. We take our time walking to the entrance of the house.“So how do you feel?” He asks me and a hint of worry covers his face.“I feel fine, Robert, and the baby is. All I have to do is have no sex to avoid bleeding for now, and take my medicines, and vitamins, and take care of my body.” I tell him and he smiles.“Then that is exactly what you will be doing,” He says to me, giving me a small smile. He reaches for my hand and I gladly give it to him. We walk with our hands intertwined together and then we enter the mansion.***Eight Months Later***The morning air is sweet, and the light breeze swirling is heavenly. The sun is up and the day is warm, I hav
“Are you sure?” Cara asks me and I resist the urge to cuss her out. What kind of question is this? I am in literal pain and she is hearing my groans and me breathing heavily.“Call Robert,” I manage to say as I try to stand on my feet. I do so without problem with the help of Cara. Her eyes are dancing with nervousness, she really doesn’t know what to do, and neither do I. This is the first time for me to be having a baby.My goal right now is just to get to the clinic or the closest hospital. The pain in my abdomen keeps getting unbearable by the minute even though I am taking steady inhales of air while exhaling the same way.I watch Cara take the phone out of her pocket hurriedly and then she dials a number that I presume is Robert’s.“He’s not picking,” She says after s few rings.“Help me get downstairs, and then we will try to call again,” I reply to her and she nods. Cara soon helps me to go downstairs and out in the yard. As soon as I am out, a few security guards hurry towar
At first, I was able to talk and breathe somehow normally, but now it feels much harder to do.“Labor is complete, now she can begin to push,” I hear the doctor say, he seems relaxed and he is not really doing anything. He is watching and telling the nurses what to do. Chad is not very far from him and a look of nervousness and fear is plastered on his face.They don’t even have to tell me to push, I can already feel an overwhelming urge to do so. I can also feel a burning and stretching sensation in my vaginal area and something tells me that the baby head is emergingGosh, all my emotions are on high alert.Where the hell is Robert?!“Very good, I can see your baby’s head, you’re doing great,” The nurse encourages me.The door suddenly opens and Robert and Cara dash through. The doctor stops them both and Cara explains to him that Robert is actually the father of the baby. With a nod of acknowledgment, he gives Robert permission to approach me.Tears are streaming from my eyes and I
“Jake is going to be so spoiled, bro.” I hear a familiar voice as I stir from sleep. I believe that it is Chad talking to another person, but I don't know who.“You have no idea, I can’t believe that I am a dad,” I hear another voice and I know that voice all too well, it’s Robert.I clear my throat as I stretch lightly in the bed, I feel like I just took the bed nap in my life. I can’t tell, but I am guessing that I slept for hours. “She’s awake,” Chad says and I smile. My vision is not as blurry as it was before when I just woke up, it’s now clear and everything now looks vivid.“Good morning, the mother of my son,” Robert says and he leans down to give me a kiss on my forehead. His lips are soft and close my eyes when they make contact with my head,“Good morning,” I manage to say, my voice still sounding hoarse.“How are you feeling?” Chad asks me and he has a huge smile on his face that is just contagious, I can’t help but smile too.“I feel...I feel rested,” I say honestly and
How do I feel? I have so many answers to this question right now. The baby that I almost died giving birth to has been kidnapped by someone who I thought was a friend, I am so confused. Why would she do such a thing?“Jen,” I hear a distant voice but I pay no heed to it.I had a feeling about Cara from the very beginning, but I was way too stubborn to pay attention to it. I knew something was not right about her, she just inserted herself into our lives and wanted to know everything about us. How was I so blind and oblivious? This is not my character, not at all.Why was I so stupid? And because of my stupidity, I just lost my baby. Maybe I am just blaming myself, but I won’t lie, there is some truth to it. I trusted Cara without Chad doing a background check on her or anything.I remember one time when I was still pregnant and Chad was adamant about doing a background check on Cara, he had his own suspicions. And being who we are, we are always on alert of who we meet and who we int
Have you ever been in a situation where it feels like you are dreaming? And not just any dream, but a nightmare. That is how it all feels right now, it all just feels like I could wake up anytime and still be pregnant, that would be epic; I would really love that.“She must be joking,” Robert’s voice pulls me from my thoughts and I look at him incredulously.“A joke?” I ask him in disbelief. “She has our child!” My voice fills the entire room, and everyone stares at me for a few seconds.“Jen, you know what I meant, this all just feels surreal,” Robert says to me and I hand him the phone.I did not mean to shout at him, I think I am just way too stressed right now. Robert stares at me as he takes the phone from me. He does not know what to do with it.“Call her again,” I instruct him and he hesitates.“Jen, I think we should take some time to think about all this,” James suggests and Robert and Carlos nod in agreement.“Call her,” I say stubbornly.I need to know whether my baby is o
In my career as an assassin, I have learned to expect things to go wrong. I have learned to accept tragedy as it comes, but this tragedy is different, it involves a piece of myself being taken from me in my most vulnerable state.Robert has decided to sell his company, and that would be able to give us the money we need to get our child back. I think a question that keeps running in my mind is whether all this is worth it? Will Naomi even give our baby back, will she stand by her word, or is this all part of her plan to rob us of all we have and then never give Jake back?I have so many doubts, so many fears, and there is so much that could go wrong, but that does not mean that I should not try or stop trying. If it causes me to go to the ends of the earth or swim in a river of acid to get little Jake back, I am fully prepared to do so.We have a deadline to give the money that Naomi requested, and that is midnight. Chad has already wired a billion to her and is now trying to wire the
