Alexandra came out after she was done with the test. She was asked to wait outside for 10 minutes before the result would be out. She held her bag to her tummy and didn’t look at Kirklin as she sat on the row of chairs opposite his. She brought out her phone and drafted an email which she addressed and left in her draft. The 10 minutes wait was the longest she had ever experienced in her life and Kirklin just looked on as calmly as possible but he was boiling on the inside. The golden moment came and it was a new person who came out to invite her to meet with the doctor as the other one had closed since it was the change of shift period. This new personnel who didn’t know that she had requested not to do the test due to emotional readiness approached her with a huge smile to invite her inside. This would be the first time Alexandra would wish someone didn’t give her this kind of smile so before the staff could utter anything, she got up immediately and asked to be seen alone as she
Kirklin knew their relationship was over as it would only be natural for her to go and sort things out with her baby's dad.“Or could it mean she was trying to push the responsibility of the pregnancy to me but failed because I didn’t go in raw?…No, that can’t be…she was the one that insisted I should use protection”. Different thoughts ran through his mind as he couldn’t fathom why she had a sexual affair with him and another person at the same time. Her dishonest act of sleeping with him while pregnant for someone else disgusted him so much and he hated himself for it.He asked in his heart that the baby in her womb forgives him because he would never have done such a gross act if he knew she was pregnant. He wanted to leave the hospital immediately and even leave London completely because of the guilty conscience he felt towards the baby in her womb.He had hoped to get married and settle down to the simple lifestyle of London but that wouldn’t be possible anymore because he would
The slap would have qualified to compete in the world’s best slap if it had successfully landed on Kirklin’s face but he dodged it by grabbing her hand immediately she raised it up. “You still have the audacity to hit me after stabbing my heart? ... Xandra, you are indeed an unrealistic woman…You know how much I loved and cherished you wholeheartedly. Do I deserve to be treated this way?... Well, now that you’re leaving, the only memory I want to remain with me is the time I first set my eyes on you… your hard work at our…erm… my company… also the sweet moments of intimacy and unreserved laughter that we … {chokes}… that we had together… I’ll treasure these beautiful moments in my heart till I depart this world… Take good care of yourself and your baby and I wish you happiness” He said with a shaky voice. Alexandra who had been furious with the way he mocked her suddenly calmed down a bit after all he said. She knew she had hurt him deeply but she herself couldn’t come to grips with
Alexandra got to the Air BnB that she booked for one month. Her hosts were a nice middle-aged couple named Mr. and Mrs. Laurent (pronounced Lor-onn). Their only son was in the French military and he had been posted to a war zone so he rarely came home.Alexandra communicated with them in fluent French and introduced herself as Alexa. They liked her even more after she told them her name.Mrs. Laurent showed her around the accommodation and told her to be free to call them if she needed help. Alexandra thanked her and went straight to the bathroom to have a warm bath. As she took off her clothes, Kirklin’s distinctive sensual scent filled the atmosphere. They had made love the day before in the office and she still had hickeys left by him all over her body. Both of them were crazily in love with each other.Events that happened within the past 24 hours had devastated her and turned her sweet life upside down all of a sudden. She thought of Kirklin and wondered what he would be doing. S
As for Kirklin; he had searched everywhere in Paris for Alexandra but couldn't stumble on her. He even hired private investigators but they couldn’t find any trace of her. He dialed her phone number about 150 times every day with the hope that it would ring one day but nothing happened.She wasn't on any social media app and it was difficult to locate her. He remained in Paris for 2 months after she left him and he took time off every form of business activity just to look for her and brood over his loss.He still hoped she would return to the London Company one day so he halted his plans to hand over to Gems Group. He returned to London after 2 months and worked his ass off to keep himself busy. He had forwarded her resignation email to the Human Resources Director and informed him he was the one that granted her permission to attend to some private issues so they should waive any applicable penalty for her sudden notification.Alexandra had spoken with Mrs. Shookus and Ms. April on
The doctor examined her and discovered one of the twins had a rare condition of low blood supply and would require immediate blood transfusion as soon as she was born. This was due to a kind of trauma that was transferred to her as a reason of excessive stress and depression from the mother. Although it was an uncommon condition, it had a remedy which was to get the baby’s exact blood type and transfuse it into her within 24 hours of birth.Alexandra nearly passed out upon hearing the news. She didn't wish for her kids to pass through any trouble whatsoever. She felt she had gone through enough in her life and she prayed her kids had a smooth ride but this news made her heart jump.The doctor told her since she was the mother and there was a possibility of her baby having her blood type, she would need to donate the required amount of blood ahead of delivery. She prescribed iron medication for her to take and also advised her to eat lots of food rich in iron to boost her blood level i
It was morning in the US and work had just resumed so Ariella had to urgently request a one-week emergency leave from work. She hurried to her house which was a luxurious duplex that Kevin had gifted her with to pick up her travel documents and she then proceeded to Kevin’s house to help him get his documents and a few clothes before heading to the airport. Kevin had recently moved into a brand new mansion because he and Ariella are planning their wedding and he had given her the access code to the house and also programmed her fingerprints and facial features to be able to gain access to everywhere in their mansion. Meanwhile back in London, Kirklin had been very disturbed and he was almost running into depression as he had not seen or heard from Alexandra in almost a year. He decided to go to Paris to try his luck for the last time hoping to find her. He made up his mind that this would be the final trip he would be making to look for her and he would forget about her and move on w
Alexandra had started sleeping by this time because she wasn’t expecting the Laurents to come back.Immediately after the girls were brought into the Meeting Room, Kirklin quietly exclaimed “Wow”. Both girls tilted their heads at the same time in his direction and he was in awe as he saw them. They were simply adorable. It was such a beautiful moment for him and he requested to carry them.He was given an overall to wear as well as a nose mask. He cuddled them in his arms and felt like having them to himself.He carried both of them at the same time and asked Mrs. Laurent to take a picture of them. He had a sweet feeling when he saw his picture with them. “The girls sure know how to smile,” he said and the adults in the room all laughed at his comment.It wasn’t long before the twins started to sleep in his arms and they beamed a smile from time to time as they slept. Kirklin laughed lightly when he saw how awesome they looked in his arms.He requested to meet their mum but was told s
