Pregnant For My Billionaire Crush Unexpected Saviour
CHAPTER 47LILY’S POVNoah’s words hooked me instantly and I looked at him with a sharp curious gaze. Of course, I wanted to know all that and more. No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t seem to understand how I wasn’t dead and, instead, had ended up here in his house.When that taxi driver was pointing the gun at me, I was sure he pulled the trigger. Even though I looked away because I didn’t want to witness my death, I heard the shot, loud and clear before passing out. Before that happened, I had called out for help and looked around to see if there was anyone nearby but there wasn’t. So how did Noah suddenly appear from nowhere and bring me here?“Please sit,” he sat at the edge of the bed and tapped the spot beside him for me to sit, his brown button eyes so charming and gentle it could melt away the troubles that lingered in one’s heart.Slashing out a breath, I eased up a little and reluctantly sat down but at a considerable distance away from him. Just because I de

CHAPTER 48LILY’S POV“Why are you crying? Please don’t cry…” Noah said and I realized a teardrop had escaped the corner of my left eye.Sniffling a sob and feeling embarrassed for breaking down in front of him, I tried to wipe the tear off with the back of my hand. After all that time with Robert, I had promised myself I wouldn’t cry again. While in prison, Alison had let me know crying was for the weak and faint-hearted and it never fixes any problem. She trained herself not to shed a single tear no matter the situation. I didn’t know how she managed to do it but she did.Despite my attempts to ward off the tears, I couldn’t help crying. It was as if I wasn’t in control of my emotions anymore and the tears had a mind of its own.Before I could wipe them myself, Noah reached out and used his thumb to scrape them away. He cradled my cheeks, my face fitting perfectly into the cup of his palms. We were so close I could feel his breath warm against my face, his eyes boring deep into min

CHAPTER 49LILY’S POV~ “Can I ask you something?” I said with a cautiously gentle tone. “Anything,” he sat on the edge of the bed while holding the empty tray, all his attention focused on me. “Did you have any kids with your ex-wife and have you ever thought of remarrying?” ~A forced, dry smile crossed his face and he took a moment as if thinking of what to say. I knew I had put him in an uncomfortable spot with that question and I was starting to regret it. Fuck. What was I thinking? I shouldn’t be asking such personal questions, especially at a time like this. He might believe I was becoming interested in him or worse, what if his past relationship didn’t end so well and I might just be opening up old wounds?“You know what?” I said, turning to the other side of the bed and adjusting the duvet. “Forget I ever asked that. Thanks again for the meal. Goodnight…”“No…it’s alright,” His hand reached out to stop me from turning away. I looked at him, my eyes widening a bit in sur

CHAPTER 50LILY’S POVSomething intense flared through my entrancement and I didn’t know when I threw myself at him, hugging him tightly. He didn’t retract like I had thought. Instead, he hugged me back, both of us seeking solace in the comfort of each other.I didn’t know how long we stayed that way but it was for quite a long time. I buried myself in the depths of his neck, resisting the urge to break down in tears. His masculine scent, an intoxicating mix of cedar wood and spice filled my senses, distracting the tears from flowing and making me feel better. He had his hands wrapped around the small of my waist possessively like he didn’t want to let go.When I pulled away slightly and met his gaze, all I could picture were his lips, his gentle needy eyes, and the clear-cut lines of his face. We stayed still, observing each other intensely. More like photographing each other, our heavy breaths crashing and mingling.“I should get going now and leave you to rest,” he said with that

CHAPTER 51ROBERT’S POVI paced the length of my office like a crazed scientist while waiting for Frank, restlessness gnawing at me to the bones. It’s been a week since I asked him to help me find Lily. Still, he hadn’t reported any progress he’s made to me so far. We were supposed to meet over half an hour ago but he was nowhere to be found. Plus, his line was unreachable. I don’t know what could be keeping him. Time was dangerously passing away.Three days ago, the remaining clients that had Lily managing their campaigns and projects stopped working with us, having lost their patience. They had no other choice as the delay was hurting their business and drawing them back. The impact was so devastating it nearly drove me to commit suicide. I hadn’t fed well and had a good night's sleep since then. And now, to make matters worse, we’d sunk to the bottom of the top ad agency rankings in the country and were dangerously sinking even lower than that. I never imagined sending Lily away w

CHAPTER 52ROBERT’S POV~ “So…?” I asked in a gruff, impatient tone. “Did you find her? Where is she?” ~Frank heaved a sigh and his shoulders fell. “I’m sorry boss but I don’t have any lead on her yet.”“What?” I lashed at him with gritted teeth. “How can you tell me that after all the time I gave you and all the money I’m putting into this?”“Boss, I just need a little more time. This isn’t an easy task...” He tried to say but I brought a hand forward to cut him off with a stern expression on my face. “Don’t tell me that! You have proven to be incompetent. Not only did you waste nearly an hour of my time, but you returned empty-handed with not even a single piece of information or clue. It’s obvious you don’t want your job back…”“No, I do…” As if that struck a cord in him, he said quickly with a pleading expression on his face.“Well too bad!” I snapped. “Because you just lost it forever. I’m taking you off this case. Leave my office and refund my money before the end of today or

CHAPTER 53 ROBERT’S POV ~ I froze. “Mother… who is this?” My mother smiled proudly and breathed out like she’d accomplished something huge. “Meet Rosaline, your soon bride-to-be.” ~ “Isn’t she a lovely sight to behold?” She mused. “What?” My eyes bulged in disbelief as I stared at her she was still staring dreamily at Rosaline like she was the answer to all her prayers. “You arranged a bride for me…with …without my consent…?” I struggled to find my words because of the shock. “Yes,” she nodded enthusiastically, seeming unperturbed and proud of her actions. “I decided to come to your rescue and arrange the perfect bride for you since all the women you end up with turn out to be barren deserts, heartless murders and stupid whorish bigamists.” Anger dripped from her words, palpable in the atmosphere between us though she tried to conceal it and maintain a spurious expression of everything being fine obviously because of Rosaline’s presence. From what she said, it wa

CHAPTER 54ROBERT’S POVMy mother was all over the place. She dismissed the servants, acting more like the waitress as she filled our plates, poured us drinks and fetched anything we needed without us needing to stand up or lift a finger. She also forced words into my mouth, doing her best to initiate conversations I wasn’t interested in and comfortable in having.“You don’t need to reveal much about yourself if you don’t want to, okay?” Rosaline said, relishing in the moment. “I already know everything about you. Your mother told me everything! This might be our first time meeting but I already feel a connection like I have known you for ages.”I was momentarily rebuffed by her words, my mouth rounding in shock as I stared at her in utter disbelief. “Everything?”“Yep,” she nodded with a smile.When I glanced at my mother from behind Rosaline where she was monitoring our every move, she half shrugged and nodded proudly, urging me to carry on with the conversation.“Like how you hate

CHAPTER 114LILY’S POVFirst thing the following morning, I was in Noah’s office, waiting impatiently for him to arrive. He usually left his office unlocked so the cleaning lady could come and clean it early in the morning before he arrived for work. But I preferred to lock mine before leaving because I don’t like people tampering with my stuff. The cleaner lady only cleaned it when I was on shifts as I kept it tidy most time.I don’t usually come over to Noah’s office. It was always the other way around. But the matter at hand was driving me insane, choking me to the point of death I just had to leave everything else I was doing and come here.I can’t believe Robert showed up at my place. Digging up where I worked and sending those whack flowers weren’t enough he had to come to my house when it was almost dark, whining like an adult child. How did he manage to find my address? Who gave it to him? Or did somehow install a tracking device in my phone or anywhere around me? I doubt th

CHAPTER 113ROBERT’S POV~ The sudden beep of my phone in my pocket startled me a bit, pulling me from my thoughts. I quickly pulled it out and glanced at the screen to see it was a notification from none other than Martin. After leaving me hanging for hours, he finally responded to my chat, his reply shocking me. ~“Robert, I understand perfectly. You don’t have to worry about anything. I’m only this way towards her because she’s my friend and I care for her. You married her, she’s all yours. Just do your best to bring her and the kids back. I promise I won’t overstep my boundaries.”I stared at the phone screen for quite some time, contemplating my response. His reply wasn’t quite what I expected. Can I truly trust him to stay clear of Lily? Their close relationship in the past, while we were still married bothered me so much that I wanted to stop her from seeing him entirely. If he took this long to reply to me, that meant he thought deeply about this. That meant he still had feel

CHAPTER 112ROBERT’S POV~ “Stay away from us and never come back here or else I’ll alert the estate security!” Lily shunned me fiercely. She didn’t even wait for me to utter a word as she quickly pulled the kids inside and slammed the door in my face, leaving me to stand there in crushing silence, staring at the closed door as the weight of my past mistakes pressed heavily on my chest. ~“Lily…! Lily…!! Please you can’t be doing this. You can’t keep them away from me…” I kept calling her name but there was no answer. She was ignoring me on purpose.I wanted to bang at the door, even knock it down if I had to. But I realized doing that would only be to my detriment as it was getting dark and I’ll be drawing the attention of the neighbours, and people passing by the estate road. The estate was very quiet and serene, so any little noise could constitute a nuisance.I rushed to the windows, desperate for another glimpse of them, but the thick, drawn curtains blocked my view entirely.

CHAPTER 111ROBERT’S POV~ Just then the door opened and a little girl of about eight years came running to her, shouting “Mummy! Mummy!” ~The little girl clung to Lily’s side, staring at me as though I was a strange creature that appeared from nowhere.“Mummy,” she called Lily that for the third time, looking up at her. “Who’s this man? Why is kneeling in front of you and what did he do for you to be screaming at him like that?”Lily was irritated by her sudden presence. She looked away to avoid her gaze, hiding her flushed face and trying to steady her laboured breath.Before Lily could get a grip, the little girl looked back at me again, her brows furrowing deeply. She was staring at me like I was something of interest. Something she was trying to understand.She rested her chin on her tiny fingers, her face adorably scrunched in deep thought. She cocked her head at me, throwing a question. “Hey Mister, who are you and why do you look so much like Liam?”“Huhh…” I grimaced in con

CHAPTER 110ROBERT’S POVMy chauffeur arrived late yesterday and got a car for me. We rode on it, following Lily from a considerable distance so she wouldn’t suspect anyone was following her. My chauffeur once drove for undercover operations for the FBI, so he was a master at that.Lily lived in a luxurious estate which made me believe her job was paying her really well. The security was tight. As a result, it was a bit hard for us to get in. Apparently, the security men at the entrance/exit gate won’t let anyone enter without proof in the form of an ID card showing you are a resident of the estate. And if you’re visiting, they’ll have to get a confirmation call from the resident you’re visiting before they can let you in. We were only able to get in because one of the security guards knew my family and I also tipped them.Arriving at Lily's house – a luxurious but simple bungalow with a well-manicured lawn, neatly paved driveway, a cosy porch, and walls painted in a soft cream hue,

CHAPTER 109ROBERT’S POV ~ “I’ll send you the details of her company. I need you to hack into her laptop and wipe out everything work-related. Can you do that?” ~Frank was silent for some time, almost as if he wasn’t on call anymore. What I said must have disoriented him completely. But I didn’t expect him to be that way.“Hey buddy…Are you still there?...” I brought my phone down from my ear just to make sure the call hadn’t disconnected. And it hasn’t.“Hey boss…” His voice sounded. It was low almost as if he was afraid to speak.“What happened?” I asked, bringing the phone to my ear. “Why did you suddenly black out on me?”“I’m sorry, boss,” he said, taking a deep breath. “But why are we doing this? Is it really the right thing to do? After what Scarlett made me do to her, I promised myself I’d never be part of something that could hurt anyone like that again. What I did cost Lily so much, and the guilt still eats at me. I can’t bring myself to put her through that kind of pain

CHAPTER 108ROBERT’S POV~ Noah sat down on the seat in front of her. He no longer had that troubled and angry look he once had. It had softened. I couldn’t understand what was happening between them. It was making me boil. As if that wasn’t enough, Lily reached across the table and took his hand in hers.“That’s it!” I said as I furiously got up and started packing to go. I can’t take this anymore. I’m heading there. I don’t care what happens. ~I was at the entrance of the building, about to enter when the security guard showed up to stop me. “Where are you heading, Mr. Robert?” He asked, his eyes wide as he was surprised to see me.“To her office,” I said through clenched teeth, fury propelling me forward.“No… no… no…” He scrambled to stop me, his hand pressing against my heaving chest. “That isn’t the right thing to do right now…”He was tensed as he glanced around furtively, making sure no one was watching as if afraid something bad would happen if anyone saw us together.“Why

CHAPTER 107 ROBERT’S POV ~ As I waited for him to return my chats, I peeped into the surveillance equipment. On seeing Lily had arrived and was already seated at her table, working on her laptop, everything else I was doing became history in the blink of an eye. I swept off the potato chips and beer from the tabletop, making a mess. My phone nearly fell too. But I didn’t care as I adjusted the equipment and began to watch Lily. ~ From the focused distance, I could see she was frustrated. She pushed her seat back away from the table. She ran her fingers through her lush hair, disheveling it and there was this angry look on her face almost as if she regretted doing something. I took my eyes off the equipment, my brows furrowing. She was too beautiful to be in this kind of distress. If she was acting this way, that meant she also had a bad night like me or even worse. Maybe she felt guilty for what she did to me yesterday. Maybe there was a chance she still loved me but was fi

CHAPTER 106ROBERT’S POVLast night was hell. I couldn’t sleep. I kept thinking about Lily. Where was she? In her house or somewhere else? What was she doing? Who was she with? Will she ever forgive me and take me to see my kids so we can become a family? These questions daggered my mind throughout the night. I had to pass the time by drinking, eating leftover pizza and watching TV.I wondered if she was thinking about me too. Surely, she wasn’t. She hated me too much now to even care whether I existed or not. If I’m ever going to regain her trust and forgiveness and win her back then I had to put in a lot of effort. I’ll have to go the extra mile and do things the old me will never think of doing. I had to take gentle steps, give her the time and space she needed and prove to her I was a changed man who was ready to love her till the end of days.After I paid that security guard and promised to pay him more if he continued to give me all the information I needed, he spilt all the de
