Rebecca's POVI was willing to fight for my love, regardless of what happened to me, and I was glad I had that spirit in me. I wasn't so strong in my last relationship with Carlos, but with Austin, I was willing to do anything for him. He was my life now, and this time I don't think I could take it if I got another heartbreak. I would die for sure.Our relationship was so pure and real, and I swear I haven't had anything like that in my whole life. It was also not like that when I was with Carlos. Maybe I wasn't so in love with him back then as I am with Austin. It is all different, and I prefer it this way. It's all that I have been praying for a long time. Austin is never selfish, and my needs came first before his. He always waited for me to get off work, so he could take me home, even though my house was near the office. We have dated for almost a year now and our feelings for each other were still intact. We had lots of fun together and made plenty of memories. I was so lucky to
Rebecca's POVI got home and as Olivia had promised, I found her waiting for me at her apartment. Luckily, I wasn’t so late today, so I don’t feel so guilty for keeping her waiting for me. “So what did Austin do today?” She asked me when I had entered her apartment. She could not even wait for me to sit, and already she had dozens of questions for me.“It was beautiful as always,” I said to her, smiling.“Ooh, I never knew that Austin was this good, you know what, I think ever since he met you, he has changed so much and that is a good thing.” She said,After we were done gossiping and making stories, I retired to my apartment, I was so tired anyway, and I needed some good sleep.Before getting to bed, I checked my phone to see if Austin had wished me a good night. But to my surprise, I saw the same number that had texted me earlier.“Babe, please reply to my messages, Rebecca. I know you have seen them.”“I wonder who was sending me those messages, maybe it was Austin trying to test
Rebecca’s POV“So what did Austin say today?” Olivia asked me in the afternoon when we were in my apartment. We had not gotten a chance to talk during lunch hour.“He is not the one Olivia, I misjudged him. The only problem now is finding the person texting me.” I said to her.“Don’t worry; the person will surely reveal himself, just give it time.” She said to me.Olivia was one of the people I needed right now. She was also right in the morning when she told me Austin could not do something like that. But I chose to continue doubt him and because of that he almost got mad at me. If I continued to behave like this I will end up losing his trust.My phone beeps again and it is the same person who has been texting all this while. Today I decide to reply to him.“Who is this please.” I reply.“Have you forgotten me babe. It is your one and only Carlos.” He replies.I almost have a heart attack when I read the message. It has been over five years now since Carlos and I last talked. What di
Rebecca's POVI plan on how to tell Austin about my past. I don't want Carlos to ruin my relationship, the one I was so happy with. “It's better if you tell him the truth, Rebecca, before Carlos does it.” Olivia said to me when we were going to work.“I don't know where to start from. It has been more than five years now since I saw Carlos. The last time we saw each other was the day of our break-up. I don't know what he wants with me now.” I say to her.“It's obvious. He realized what he had lost, and he is trying to get you back, friend.” Olivia said.“After all this time, he must be mistaken. What makes him think that I still want him, over my dead body.” I say to her. I realized I was burning up with anger. The way he treated me, no one has ever done that to me. I will be running mad if I go back to him.“Don't let this affect you, Rebecca, please. Just do the right thing, and that is telling Austin about your past. Don't let this destroy your relationship.” She said.I will tell
Rebecca's POVI am glad when he had picked up my phone. I knew he won't resist me, even when he was so busy with work.Me – Babe, are you done with work. I need you, please.Austin – babe, I am not done yet. I am sorry, I don't think I can make it today. I am far away from you and I feel so sad. Hopefully, tomorrow, I will be done.Me – Where are youAustin – I am out of town babe, there was something I was doing. But it is related to work. It was important for me to be here. But it will be done soon.Me – no problem babe, I will just wait for you.I wonder why he had to get important work now when I was needing him the most. I was dying to be with him, plus I could not tell him about all my insecurities over the phone, it will just not be nice. I was so used to being with him that I felt so insecure without him. I don't even feel hungry today. I don't feel like cooking either. Carlos made me forget myself completely. I was so afraid of what he will do next. It was like he already kne
Carlos POVI have finally found her and this time I will never let her go. She is mine, I mean Rebecca is mine and mine only. We were meant to be together from the beginning and no one can ever be able to separate us. I was foolish before, but not anymore.I know where she works and also where she stays. Likewise, I know that she is dating the boss son, Austin. This makes me so mad, jealous and I just want to take her away with me forever. I had hire a private investigator, and he was the one who told me all these things since he was following her.I had followed her earlier when she was out of work and I had scared her a little. She was tough now. She was not the same Rebecca I once knew. The one who will be begging me to return to her. The one who was always so afraid of losing me. I thought winning her over again will be so easy but I guess I was wrong because now she was already in love with another man. What I had to do was change my tactics in getting her again. I will have to
Rebecca's POV“Hi, babe. Later in the evening, I will be there. I am done with work here already, and I can't wait to hold you in my arms again. I feel so suffocated without you by my side. I want to hold you forever, baby.” I wake up, and I find that wonderful message on my phone. Finally, he was going to be here. I have missed him greatly, and I just want to see and hold him so close to my body. I miss his smile, touch, body. In short, I miss all of him. I just want him here. I smile as I reply to his message.“I miss you so much, honey. I want you here, close to me.” I smile and hit the send button. I saw another incoming message, but it was not from Austin. It was a new number. I wondered what the message said, so I open to read it.“Hi Rebecca, if you love your current relationship, then meet with me tonight at 8.00 pm, I will be waiting for you at Lucky restaurant. If you don't, then you will be so sorry.” It says.Why so many obstacles in my relationship. I was happy with my A
Carlos POVI have threatened Rebecca, and she has given in to my demand. I know she will be there, so I must go early. I want her to find me there. If she does not agree to my demands, then I promise to make her life a living hell. She must be mine, and she will be mine once again. Rebecca and I were meant to be together forever, I see her when she arrives. It is like she wanted to leave. I rush before she leaves, and I direct her to where I was sitting. She ordered a drink, but I had to force her to order food, but she declined. It seems she wanted to leave from here so early, but I was sure I was going to keep her here for a long time.“So why did you call me here.” She asks immediately the waiter brought her drink. She was bold this time and not shaky. It appears to me that her new boyfriend taught her so many things, including being courageous in front of many people.“Relax, baby, just drink a little. You haven't even touched your drink yet. Have it pleased.” I say to her.“Carlo
Rebecca POVThe DNA of us and our baby matched, and we were allowed to go home with our baby. It was a relief to both of us, and we decided to throw a party for our baby's welcome.The trouble had ended for us. It was time to be happy and just enjoy my love with Austin. Olivia and Carlos were both in prison now, and they will never bother us again. We invited both our families, and we had to prepare for the party since it was only two days from now.“Baby. What should I wear for the party.” I asked Austin. Things like these always made me anxious.“You will look beautiful in any outfit, Darling. Just trust yourself.” He says to me with a warm smile on his face. He was holding our baby while he was telling me this. Since the arrival of our baby, he has been spending more time with him than he was with me.“Baby. I feel jealous, you know.” I said to him with a frown on my face.”“Jealous. Why?" He asks so confused.“Yeah. You have been spending more time with Raphael than with me.” I sa
Carlos POV.The last few days were bad for me. Olivia and I had a case at the court and there was going to be a hearing today. The case was so serious since it involved a baby. We went into the court and I pled guilty to abducting a child from her mother just for my own selfish reason. Olivia tries to defend herself, but since there was so much evidence pointing to us, there was no way she could escape justice. At last we were sentenced to twenty years imprisonment. I cried a lot, but I knew I deserved this. Olivia was going to be taken to women's prison and I to men's prison. I know we will never see each other again until twenty years are over. That was really a long time. I don't think I will be able to recognize her after all that long.There was one thing to be happy though and that was Rebecca. She had decided to forgive me after all the things I did to her. I was happy that she had found her baby and that he was doing alright. I just wish her all the happiness in this world. I
Carlos POV.I try to run away, but the police catch up with me. I had made a big mistake in choosing to do that dirty work with Olivia. Now my life is totally ruined. This time I had lost Rebecca for good. I had done so much harm to her life. I totally regret what I had done to her. Stealing her baby was the worst. I will never forgive myself for that. I love her, yet I was the one who made her life so miserable. I admit she used to love me so much. I was the one who betrayed her by sleeping with her best friend. She moved on from me and I just could not accept that. It was time I corrected all my horrible mistakes. One way to do that was to tell her where her baby was.I was now in a police car. They were taking me to the police station. I know I deserve this, being locked up. I hope I will be a better person when I get locked up in jail. We reach the police station and I see Rebecca standing there looking so sad, and her face was swollen, probably from crying. She looked so unhapp
Rebecca's POVIt has been hell for me knowing I no longer have my baby beside me. I have struggled enough only to lose my baby in the hands of a jealous person I called my best friend. The person I called my friend was the one who hurt me the most in this world. She took what mattered to me the most, and that is my flesh and blood. My Raphael. I will never forgive her in this life.Today, when Austin informed me that the police had caught Olivia. I could not contain myself anymore. I get ready to go with him to the police station. All I wanted was for her to tell me where my baby was, and that is what I was going to ask her.We got into the car and headed to the police station. She was there seated being interrogated by the police. She sees me and our eyes meet. I could see she was smiling. She was happy that I was crying. “Well. Let's see who we have here. Mother of the year. Who could not take care of her tiny little baby. So, I took care of him instead. Now he is in a perfect plac
Austins POV.“Where is my baby. I cannot take this anymore.” Rebecca says. I was dressing her up, so we could go home. It was supposed to be a happy day for us, but it turned to be the saddest. She was weak right now, but the doctors advised me to take her home. Since being in the hospital won't bring her any good. “Don't worry, baby. We will find him soon.” I say to her.“When darling. It has been two days now and there are no signs of Olivia nor Carlos. I feel like I am running mad right now. Take me out of here, baby. Please. I just want to go home and rest.” She says.“Let's go Darling. I assure you that all things will be alright. You know I have never let you down. So trust me.” I said to her. I had to be a source of strength to her. I was all that she got right now. Likewise, I felt so weak and helpless as well, but I could just not show her how helpless I was. It will just make her feel weaker than she was already feeling right now. I carried her out of the hospital since sh
Austins POV.I am so restless in the hospital chair where I am waiting for the doctor to come tell me what was going on in the maternity room. My Rebecca was in their having a hard time. She was screaming so loud, and I could hear her from where I was sitting. I feel so bad that she was alone in this, but there was nothing I could do. Within two hours, I could not hear her screams anymore. I saw a doctor come out of the room, and I followed him immediately.“Doctor, how is my wife and baby.” I asked when I reach to him.“Don't worry. Relax, your wife is fine. Congratulations, you are now a father to a healthy, handsome baby boy.” The doctor says.“Really doctor. Thank you so much. Can I see her now.” I say with a bright smile on my face. The long wait is finally over. I just could not wait anymore. I wanted to see them so badly and my baby, I wanted to hold him and just kiss him.“Yes, but not now. Let's first shift her to another room, then you can see them. Just ten minutes from now
Carlos POVI cannot forget the scene where I met Rebecca and I found out she was pregnant. It was the worst day of my life. I never thought she will be pregnant this soon. I was more hurt on the day of their wedding. It was so private when I knew about it when they had already wed. I had lost her forever. Now that she is expecting a baby. It is over for me. I know they will be happy together now forever with their baby. I can't stop feeling jealous and hate towards her. I watch her get into the cab and leave. I feel tears in my eyes. She did not love me anymore. Another man was making her happy. I wish that man was me. I wanted to be her man. To take care of her and to be there for her always, but it seemed I had lost that chance. Forever this time because now she was already married, and she was about to become a mother. I just could not hold the news to myself anymore. I called Olivia immediately to disclose the news to her. “What. She is pregnant? That is why their wedding was so
Rebecca's POVIt has been nine months now. My belly is so big, and it was giving me a hard time. It was only a week to my due date, but I felt like I could not wait anymore. It was taking so long for the baby to be here. It was always harder during the nights. I was unable to find a suitable sleeping position and could not get sleepy. I spent most nights awake while Austin could sleep so peacefully beside me. Just like any other day, I am so sleepless this day. I look at Austin, and he is sleeping like a small baby. Furthermore, I feel like crying, how dare he do that to me every single day? I turn and turn, but no sleep. It was really getting out of hand. I get up to go and eat something in the kitchen. Actually, in this pregnancy, I eat everything I come across with. That was the most fun part about my pregnancy. I ate even the food I hated before.I walked slowly, so I could not wake Austin up. I understand that he got exhausted at the office, that is why he sleeps so much at nigh
Austins POV.We were now on our way back home. Our one-week honeymoon was over. We had so much great fun. I have never been so happy. “I can't believe it is over, baby. I had so much fun.” Rebecca says to me while we were in our car heading home. “Don't worry, baby. We will be going on a vacation more often.” I promised her. I just hope I will be able to keep her happy for the rest of our days. We get home and put our things in order. She looked tired but happy. I am glad she liked every surprise I planned for her. She was the best.* * * * * * * * * *Rebecca's POVFive months now and I was already six months pregnant. Things have been somehow tough for me, but since Austin was on my side, things have been a bit easier. He helped me when I needed him the most. My belly was growing with each passing day. I had already made my first ultrasound, but I had not yet known the gender of my baby since it was still so tiny. But I was hoping that my baby would be a girl, but it was differen
