Pregnant For The Billionaire. Chapter Sixteen.
TEN MONTHS AGO.“What is this?” Leonard’s gaze fell to the gazette in his hands before matching up to his mother’s. She towered over his desk with the corner of her lips twitched with a smirk. He excused his guards and placing the papers down, he had only a vague idea what to make of it. Freya sat down with an accompanied lawyer. “Your father left you something” Her words pierced through his ear like his teeth into his fingernails. “Why would i ever want anything from that man?“ He asked and she pushed a hard lump down her throat. “Hear me out Leonardo” She pleaded.“It’s been six years and you’re only coming now with some bullshit two dollar asset” He cussed in a raucous tone and the lawyer felt the need to step forward. “This isn’t a two dollar asset, Mr Carter—your father couldn’t have overemphasized it more that you get it at thirty. He always said you’d know what to do” Harry reinstated and Leonardo scoffed with a jeering laugh.“Oh please. Mother.”“Listen to him” Freya urged.

Isabella charged through the emergency doors with a gasping breath, the sound of her heels against the floors echoing back a series of clinks and thuds.Her eyes were sore from the tears that fell from them and she held unto the bed on which Majorie was wheeled in.“Oh my God” She exclaimed. In her defense, the whole night had felt unreal—like a fever dream. And that image of standing over her aunt’s unconscious body was to haunt for days, and even weeks to come.“Somebody help!” She had shouted, just before a man came through the elevators. He tried resuscitating her aunt, starting heavy yet cautious chest compressions. “What happened?” The stranger asked, dialing 911 in the nick of time. Her eyes wavered from the tears that stung in them. “I don’t know” She sobbed.“I don’t know, i came home and the door was open and i tried looking for her. I was so confused, only for me to see her lying here—i have no idea what happened” More tears fell as a crack remained imminent in her voice.

"Here" Isabella leaned into her aunt, the pills rattled in her hands and from the plastic bottle, she removed a single one. Majorie faced the ceilings with barely opened eyes. She however managed to slip the pills through her chapped thin lips.Grabbing the cup of water, she gave her aunt and kept it all aside—Majorie was home now, after being discharged a week later. And Isa spent most of her days and nights by her side. In that moment that she choked, Bella smothered her lower back and both their eyes met. "Bella." She usually called with so much emotion and she pushed a lump down her throat."I'm here."Holding firm her hands, Isa brought her head to lean into hers. "I am here ma" There was a subtle crack in her voice but she didn't let go until Majorie was asleep again, which was in few minutes—it was all she did now. And towering over her, tears filled Isa's eyes.She couldn't bear this.She couldn't bear to see her aunt this way. It was as if she was good one moment and her who

Arlington Heights, Chicago.Their sweaty bodies grazed each other as his hands swept behind his neck. She drew close to him, resting her head upon his hairless chest. She could hear his pulsating heart in rhythm with the rising and falling for his chest and she let out an exasperating sigh."That was good" Kayla heaved, a second later trailing along the ends of his skin with her fingers and Colton looked to his wife, a ray of sunlight across half his face. His other hand went through her hair as he smirked. Her cheeks were flustered and her feeble hands grew weaker.He sat up, and so did she.The incandescent morning sun beamed against the window blinds. He leaned forward, reaching for his underwear and she turned on the lights. "I called the foster care, Colton" Her voice was dim as he cleared his throat. "Hmm" Without any wording in reply."They said we could come down any day now"Colton stood, swiping a strand of hair behind his ear. He hurriedly wore on his shirt and Kayla didn't

"Cheerios" "Emily hates Cheerios and if you give her that, she's probably going to throw up. Ryan loves them and you could probably give him that. Oh and their room—" Isabella sauntered back from the front door, her bags hanging loose from her shoulders.Joan gripped her hands, holding her back."Clean the room and leave every single toy the way it was because Emily has an OCD" Joan gritted through her teeth as she pulled unto her. "You've already said that before, like a million times. Everything's going to be fine" She added and Isa heaved a deep breath, turning back to Holly."And if anything happens, the bar is just a few blocks from here""Or you can call me" Isa pointed at the new babysitter. "You should call me." She nodded and Joan chuckled softly. "You should go to work, that's what you should do. Everything's under control" Joan continued and Isa held her bag closer."Right?""Right" Holly muttered, pushing a lump down her throat. She looked down at Ryan who sleepily clung

“Mommy.“The shrill voice of a girl braced the phone in her hands and the echo rang through Isabella’s ears. “Emily” She blurted her daughter’s name from her lips, recognizing the anxiety in the tone of her voice. “Emily are you okay?”There was a loud thud that banged in the background and Isa sniffled, wiping her tears. She jerked forward off the door. “Hello” Isa yelled over the line that had gone static before cutting off.Her heart began to stomp like it was six years ago again. Her child was troubled, and without a second thought, she went after her. A straight cab from the entrance of Marriott took her to the front of her apartment building. And Isabella leaped past the stairs, a faster alternative than the elevators and finally she made her way to the front of her door.Banging it, it was only a second until Holly pulled it open.“Emily” She charged in, only to be met a tight hug around her knees. “Are you okay?” Her eyes moistened as she lifted her in her hands. “Are you oka

"I gave you one simple instruction, Isabella" His voice raged through the room as he held up his large hands to her face. She shrieked in the corner, holding her knees to the bottom of her chin. "Please" She muttered, half her face covered in his saliva and bruise marks."What more do you want from me?" He yelled."I gave you everything, but it's not enough right. You just want him" Isabella couldn't bear to look into his eyes that night and when she muttered a plea for the second time, he dashed his hands across her face. She screamed in pain, helpless and weak against his grasp as he tossed her to the ground.But this wasn't now.This was about ten years ago."Leave me alone" She screamed, earning herself another nasty slap and he hovered above her. "I gave you everything but one, is it hard that i ask you to love me?" She looked into his furious eyes."Colton." She called, whispering through her lips."Don't call me." He shoved her hands away. "Because when you were having all you

It would be very foolish of her to think that was the last time she’d see Colton, but it was all that poisoned her mind as she sat behind his table, her hands folded to wedge her up. She quivered, unknowing to her that she was nervous even though it had been minutes since they came in.Leonardo blessed her with silence as he stood, leaning against the mini bar in his office. He had in his hands, a glass of Remy Martin as he looked back and forth his windows and her.“He’s gone.” He broke the news as if it had just happened.She hummed, barely giving him any eye contact but she could feel his boring into the back of her head. His lips parted to ask the obvious question. “Who is he?” His voice deepened. “That man.”Isabella knew it was only a matter of time till he asked, but still she didn’t have the words. If he claimed to know as much about her as he did—then surely she’d know about Colton Chambers.Who didn’t know about Colton Chambers?High school sweetheart, star quarterback of th

FIVE MONTHS LATER.Isabella gathered the hems of her flowing white dress as she heaved in a deep breath. Her face turned crimson with blood draining from her cheeks and she turned to Joan who was right beside her. "I'm so nervous" She whispered beneath her breath with her shoes grazing into the fields.There were roses all around them and they stood just behind the door yet to open. "The dress is beautiful, Isabella. You're perfect.” Joan whispered, being her maid of honor for her second wedding and they shared a chuckle."It's like a full circle moment" Isabella beamed a smile and Joan rested unto her arms."But it's different now" She said."Either way i'm glad i get to do this with you again. I'm glad i still have you" Isabella pushed a hard lump down her throat. "Have you thought about what Leonardo said?" She asked for the nth time and i remembered months ago when he told me of his plans to leave Norman.That it was up to me though, to decide what exactly a fresh slate meant."I

“Hey” Her soft voice drew to him as he brought his eyes to open. The incessant beeping of the heart monitor subdued behind her voice and Em inched closer to him. Gerald’s eyes were slow but the moment he recognized her, there was a large grin that spread across his lips. “I’m here” She comforted, leaning forward to place a kiss on his cheek.“You’re okay” Her hands pressed lightly on the wrapped gunshot wound in his chest and he nodded. “Isabella?” He softly asked and Em held his hands to her lips and with tears in her eyes, she nodded. “She’s okay—”“Everyone’s okay.”His hands fell around his wrist and there was the bracelet he’d gotten for her thirty years ago. Gerald’s eyes shimmered with tears as he gazed upon the beautiful beige dress she still wore. “You kept it” He whispered and Emily nodded her head fraily.“Of course i kept it” She smiled. There was a minute of silence between them as she wiped beneath her eyes but then Isabella knocked upon the doors before walking in. “You

Leonardo burst out the other side of the door and the heat from the serenading flames hit him in his face. He tied a cloth around his nose and he searched through his foggy vision to make out everything around him.It was a painstaking effort with his feet crunching into a piece of glass and the parts of the ceiling that had crumbled to the ground. “I say we take ahead!” Theodore yelled, looking at the only way still feasible. Leo choked but somehow managed to get himself in order in a minute.The sound of approaching sirens blared from outside the door but by the looks of it, they seemed still far away. He didn’t have time—and so did Isa. “Let’s go” He chanted and they filed down the corridor, searching each room for what was left. The whole house was dark, even as the skies were visible through the shattered roof. “Isabella!” He yelled at the top of his voice, taking down the mask across his face for a second. “Joan!” Theodore yelled too, in the hopes that she was here as well.“Is

TWENTY FIVE MINUTES UNTIL MIDNIGHT.The car finally came to a halt and from a distance walked Sheriff Stevens accompanied by both Christian and Theodore. In a world that had gone digital, it was surprising that they didn’t show up with a large bag of cash to submit to the mafia Lord but rather just a plain-old cheque.“You’re nothing like i expected” Constantin turned around when he suspected their footsteps had drawn them close enough. The sheriff met his cold gaze with a defensive stance. “I’ll say the same” He muttered and then his eyes roamed both Christian and Theodore who acted like bodyguards. “I thought i told you to come alone” He looked as far as the car but with the silence that enclosed them on this deserted coast, he was moreso convinced. “Do you want your money or not?” Stevens hissed back at him, pulling out the cheque from his pocket and Constantin scoffed from his lips. “I’m not stupid. Bring out all the hostages and then i’ll give you the money.” The sheriff negoti

Stevens dashed across the bordering sign that demarcated Norman and Riverdale with his hands firmly grasping the steering wheel. He was on the edge of his seat but somehow managed to steal a glance at the clock.ONE HOUR UNTIL MIDNIGHT.“We can still make it” Gerald piped forward, drawing the chair behind. Em was at the front seat and she allowed their eyes to meet in a tensive second. “It’s okay” Gerald whispered with an affirmative nod. “It’ll soon be over” He reached to her hands and Theo pushed a hard lump down his throat. All, that on his mind was Joan’s safety and whether or not she was okay. “Do you have the complete money now?” Emily turned to the sheriff, still reeling in the disbelief of how they raised a hundred million dollars in twenty four hours. He nodded, darting a stare back at her. “I mean Harold was the last. He was able to get an upfront deal of about forty for the shares of the Norman hotel. Christian wired my ten and Gerald as well—And your uncle transferred t

The slow jazz pierced through Emily’s ears as she wrapped her hands around Gerald’s neck. Indulged in the dance, she didn’t raise her head but that was until it was his turn to swing her. She moved her hips so elegantly like she was young again and after an hour, she admitted to be wrong because there was something about the dance that eased her tension. The music stopped and there was a round of applause, the same moment that allowed them to intimately look into each other’s eyes. “You were amazing” Gerald whispered but before Em could mutter another word, her eyes caught him.“Klaus!” She blurted out.There he was, by the bar downing a glass of champagne with a younger mistress in his hands. He was headed for the stairs and Emily fixated his eyes on him, unwilling to let him misplace in the colorful crowds. She tried to catch her breath and the hemming of her dress as she moved closer.This place was big, the walls a glittering gold with a low hanging silver chandelier dropping fro

Isabella awoke to a dimly lit candle in the corner of the room.The crimson orange flames flickered in her eyes with a slight pitter-patter sound of the wax burning. It curved to the side and just that single piece was able to warm the room, ridding it of it’s unconducive iciness. She shivered off the remnant cold as she sat up. The heavy chain followed even the slightest movement of her hands, letting out a thunderous clang as she retracted them. Her eyes met Kayla who was quivering in fear just opposite her. “It wasn’t there before” Isa’s voice interrupted the eerily silent room. Her eyes looked pointedly to the candle flame but then suddenly something fell right in front of her.“Oh my God” She clutched her chest, startled to her bones and Kayla let out a shaky scream. The pair of black rubber boots that sauntered towards her drew her attention before whatever it was that was thrown to her. “Take a look” The familiar voice towered over her and Isabella didn’t even need to lift her

“I’m sorry but Mr Sanders left a little while ago” The woman behind the desk pressed her lips together and it was a like a sword of disappointment struck through Emily’s chest. She batted her lashes and then exchanged glares with Gerald.“I’m sorry—to where?” She stuttered.Her hands reached across the counter and she tapped her fingertips into it. “And when will he be getting back?” She asked and the receptionist was a bit reluctant divulging any piece of information for these strangers in front of her. Emily saw the crinkle form between her eyes and a sharp breath escaped her lips.“Look i know you know who i am.”“If not from my last name then perhaps from Klaus telling you never to engage with his own niece if ever she came around. Short, brunette haired with the mouth like a tap is exactly how he would describe me—““I don’t know what you’re talking about” The lady replied.“Well i call bullshit” Emily cussed and Gerald found his hands holding her back. “My daughter, Klaus’ fucki

Leonardo snapped his eyes open with an agonizing pain spearing through his neck and along the veins of his numb limbs. He was carried by two hefty arms into a large, dark room and when he realized that his consciousness was regained after an hour long sedation, he struggled to break free from the grasps of the arms that restrained him. “Where’s Isabella!” Was the first question that he yelled out through his panting lips. He threw his head upon his shoulders as he was dragged, his feet barely an inch from the callous grounds. And then he was thrown in the deepest and darkest part of what seemed to be a dungeon. The beads of sweat that formed across his head tricked down his body and he wiped across his face, lifting his gaze to see the masked men in front of him. Leonardo was short of breath as he staggered to sit up, using his barely formidable arms as a wedge. He was able to lean against the wall as he searched for his breathes.“Where’s Isabella?” He looked around him and there d
