After the meeting with Jessica ended, Dave decided not to go straight home and instead turned his car to the downtown area. He desperately searched for a way to get her mood back to before the incident and finally found it earlier. Anna emitted a different light when she met Jessica, especially baby Jake. No. She was better knowing she would check the package from the baby brand. She was excited, and he wanted it to last a bit longer. So, he intended to take her to a baby supply store.

"Where are we going?" she asked alternately, looking at the street and him. She had confusion on her face.

"We'll find some stuff for our baby," he replied, still focused on the road. They soon arrived at their destination.

Instantly happy sparks came again, even though she tried to cover them with her refusal. "But don't you have to work?" Also, keep her voice even, although it was hard.

Yes. If it was a typical day, he would concentrate on his work. He had several reports he needed to read and require

    She kept checking her shopping bags after they came back from shopping which seemed like forever. They walked from end to end just to see the entire collection. Notes. Just checking because they only bought for newborn babies. The rest was her curiosity to see other supplies for older babies. And it was already four when they left the shop to move to the nearest cafe before going home.She giggled because it was the first time she had done that. She never enjoyed shopping as much as this before."You seem so happy," Dave commented from behind her. He had just returned from the restroom and watched her as he slowly walked towards their table. A giggle escaping her lips was the primary sight. Anna turned and greeted him with a big smile. It usually embarrassed her to be caught off guard like this. But now, she just wanted to reveal it. "I'm just making sure we don't leave something in the shop.""We wouldn't," he blurted out. "We've checked every corner." Then he sat in his chair. "I'm

    Kate smiled disdainfully at his threat. "Report me? You think they'll believe your story that I attacked her?" Her voice was no less mocking."Why not? I know you have a delightful image, but you are neither a saint nor an angel. Your true side will spread sooner or later.""But you have no evidence I attacked her first. Maybe Anna did it."Yes. No CCTV was installed in the restroom or toilets. It was a private area."No problem. I'll use the recording from the party. I'll keep it for this." Dave might sound like an exaggeration. But he needed evidence of injustice or violence against his wife if a similar incident was repeated. Even though Anna said she wouldn't extend it, he kept it as a hold. "I trust the judge will know what's true and what's not."Her face paled at hearing that. "B-But you don't have a recording for today." She pretended to be strong though her voice stuttered a little."Then we'll go on confession. It gets easier because I believe a lie will reveal itself, espec

    "Stop doing that. You might break your phone to pick it up and put it back and forth," Dave said after she caught her for the umpteenth time. And she did the same. Opening call and message history.Anna realized he had caught her actions, so she scowled. She had to put her phone back on the table with pursed lips. "I'm afraid I'll miss their call or message," she mumbled."You won't. It's in front of you, and you'll know if a call or message comes in."Anna felt the weight beside her as Dave sat on the sofa, just like her. She didn't want to look at him for nagging her. But he didn't let her go and instead gently pulled her chin up to stare at him so that her eyes met his. "I hate you." She said her ultimate words.Dave just chuckled at that because he knew she didn't mean it. "Let me treat your cheek." Instead of responding, he said otherwise and brought his body closer to her.He didn't say anything and was silent as he began to apply cold ointment to her cheek. It was in contrast t

  • Secret Marriage With Billionaire    Chapter 92 - Morning Sickness

    This morning, Dave woke up with something unusual. He heard someone vomit, and his mind could guess who.Anna.So he rushed over to the bathroom to check on it. And he saw Anna sitting on the floor in front of the closet with her head down as she vomited. It was painful just seeing her that way."What happened?" he asked while patting her back lightly. He kneeled down beside her with a worried look on his face.After feeling no more than she could take out from her stomach, Anna finished vomiting and lifted and shook her head. "I suddenly wanted to throw up when I woke up." Her voice sounded very weak, as did her body. She seemed to have no energy left and just realized that vomiting required a lot of energy.His left hand moved to his forehead to check her temperature while his right was still patting her back. "You're not sick," he concluded after finding nothing wrong. It seemed her temperature was normal after a quick check."I think it's because of my pregnancy. The doctor said a

    Vomiting was like morning music though it wasn't pleasant at all as what had happened in their house for the past few days. It sometimes happened quick, but they had one day that Anna threw up until almost lunch. It frustrated them, especially Dave, to see his wife like that, which was very painful to him.Like today, it was already nine, but Anna was still throwing up in the bathroom.Wait. Where was Dave?"Yes, Jen. She had bad nausea this morning, so she can't go to the appointment and meet the client. I'm sorry you have to find someone to take her place." Dave spoke to Jenny on the phone as he tousled his hair in frustration. He wanted to be beside his wife and help her get through her morning sickness. But here he was, standing in the kitchen, doing the phone call after making a glass of warm lemon water for her."Understood. I hope she gets better soon.""Thanks." After saying that, he heard the vomiting again. He listened to his wife trying hard to throw up. "I guess I should g

    "So, how is she?" Dave asked after the ultrasound examination was over, and now they were back sitting opposite each other. He was ready to hear the results."Well, the result is good. The baby is growing as we've expected." Belinda started by saying good things first. "But there are concerns about her condition. As I said before, the first trimester of pregnancy is a delicate time. So she needs to be extra careful to look after herself, especially after getting symptoms. I strongly recommend you, Mrs. Byrne, reduce your activities. Is it possible for you to get time off?"Dave had difficulty swallowing when he heard the question. He had a bit of a bad feeling about that."Is that really necessary?" Anna asked her back."I highly recommend you to do it. Right now, your baby needs all your attention."Anna's hands on her thighs coiled into fists in confusion. Finally, the time to choose between work and her baby came, and she clearly had little choice about it. Or she actually had no c

    "Is there something wrong?" Dave asked, glancing at his wife for the umpteenth time between his focus on driving. Anna had been silent since they left the hospital and always looked out the window beside her."No."If not silent, she would answer briefly, as she did just now."Are you sure?""Yes.""Then why are you silent?"There was a three-second pause before she replied, "I just want to see the street."Yeah, she did it sometimes—sitting in the car and enjoying the road. But she wasn't this silent, and he sensed that something else had caused her to behave like this. "Did I do something wrong?" He kept asking despite her answer."No.""Are you mad at me?"Again, she took a three-second pause and replied, "No."He began to understand the pattern. The pause that Anna took was enough of a hint that she felt the opposite of her answer."Is it about Linda?" He just guessed it. But the clues were apparent because her unusual behavior started from the moment she found him chatting with L

    Anna had just come out of the bathroom with only a towel wrapped around her. She felt refreshed after fifteen minutes of bathing in the bathtub and a quick shower to wash her off the soap that was like a massage when the water hit her body. It relaxed her muscles as well as her mind. It seemed that those were the reasons they liked warm water for taking a bath.So where did she do it? Was the hotel as Dave's idea?No. Anna insisted on her choice of being their house as the answer. After all, the bathroom in their room is spacious, with a fairly large bathtub, unlike her previous apartment, which only had a shower. That was why she took advantage of it while she had the chance to enjoy it.She opened the wardrobe to look for a change. She preferred oversized t-shirts and shorts for sleeping and took a bra and underwear. Yeah, she knew it was better to sleep without a bra, but she wanted to check on something. She felt her breasts had grown bigger.She was about to close the cupboard af

    Anna peered through the common bathroom door on the first floor before stepping out casually as if nothing had happened. She walked past Dave, who was sitting on the couch in their living room and reading a report on his tablet, with Zach crawling on the floor."Zach, baby, come here." She called for Zach's attention, which was never hard to get. "Let's play outside."And his reaction was predictable. He was running toward his mother excitedly. His smile was so big that it was going to explode.Being a child seemed fun, didn't it?She followed him, running out of the house to their yard barefoot. She couldn't help her own smile from forming on her face at seeing him and another happiness she had just found out about today.She was pregnant with their second child.But be quiet. Anna wanted to make a surprise for her husband.Oh, she couldn't wait to see his reaction!"Zach, come here. Mommy wants to say something to you."Zach halted his running to look at his mother with an indescrib

    Three years later.She watched everything. Their every move, laugh, giggle, scream, and more. She couldn't help but grace a wide smile over that. It was too good to be true. But it was what that was as it was the reality.Baby Zach was now three years old and in his active days. He had run on every corner of the house and was always excited to run outside.Although it tired their body from following him around, she didn't complain, especially Dave. He always had the energy to play with him and never ran out of ideas. He raised their child with all his heart.She shook her head to force herself back to her place. She couldn't only observe them all the time, as she needed to finish the cookie dough.Zach had the exact liking as hers for sweets. So she tried to be the best mom by baking them instead of buying them outside or ordering chefs to make them. It was cheaper and could adjust to her family preferences, which she wanted, not too much sugar.As Dave said, sugar was a killer.She

    "Hi, baby boy. I'm happy you're awake, and I can hold you. Your mother must feel the same way. But she's resting now, so let's not disturb her and play with me instead." His voice was laced with happiness as his eyes flitted the same feeling. There was nothing happier than this moment when he finally held baby Zach. And the fact that he was born healthy was wonderful. It could be perfect if his wife's recovery went well.Baby Zach wriggled his tiny hands and managed to capture Dave's finger. He gripped it though his eyes were still closed. Baby Zach might sense familiar and safe, so baby Zach didn't cry, which made Dave's heart swell with pride and warmth. Only his touch could do that, and he couldn't be more proud of that."What do you think about this world? It's amazing, isn't it? You have me, your mother, and your entire family by your side. And in the future, you will find your own friends."Baby Zach was just quiet, and if his grip was not still on his finger, Dave might have th

    A few months later.Anna was closing drawers after checking what was inside was still inside.It might be confusing. The point was Anna had just finished looking at their baby’s needs, such as clothes, diapers, socks, blanket, and more. She wanted to make sure everything was ready when the time came, which was soon. Her due date should be this week, and she couldn’t be more excited to finally welcome their baby.She moved to the only bed in the room. It was big and had four wooden walls on four sides to protect the baby from falling. And it was the one Dave said could accommodate her body while breastfeeding their baby. She even could sleep on it too.Her hand touched the doll on the nearby side and placed it neatly between another doll and the pillow. She had some, mainly cute animal characters, to accompany him while he was sleeping.Yes, him. Their baby was a boy.“Do you like it, honey? It’s nice, right? Your father prepared them for you.” She spoke as her hand caressed her so big

    "I saw everything, Anna. I know what you hide behind your back." His eyebrows raised as if waiting for her to reveal it by herself. There was no point in hiding it anyway since it was why he approached her. He already saw her enjoying the ice cream!"What do you mean?"So she was going to play with him. Unfortunately, he didn't want to pretend that he did not see that. "The bowl. Ice cream."And she could only force a grin."Come here." His hand reached out to invite her to come near him."No. You will scold me.""That means you know you were doing wrong. How many bowls have you had?""Hmm. Five?""Count it correctly, honey.""Okay. Okay. Nine." She raised both her hands in the air and surrendered herself."No, honey. The bowl in your back is the eleventh."He actually didn't have a problem with her enjoying the ice cream. But Anna liked overeating, and she might have more if he didn't watch her."Good job Dave. She needs to be more careful with her health." Rebecca, standing beside h

    Finally, the day they had been waiting for came. It was hectic but also fun. Their friends and families gathered together to celebrate the happy day. What was more pleasing than that?The vow went well. Although Anna felt more nervous, everything was perfect this time compared to the real one. Her father led her to the altar and handed her to Dave, which generally did at a wedding ceremony. And she and his husband stated their vow again and became husband and wife one more time.And to make it perfect, he sealed their vow with a kiss on her lips. Then cheers and applauses filled the hall.It was indeed a favorable moment. And it lasted until night."It's a pleasure to finally meet the newest Mrs. Byrne." Alexander greeted Anna and took her hand to land a quick kiss, like how a gentleman met a lady for the first time. "My name is Alexander Green.""Oh!" Anna couldn't help but show her surprise. She heard a lot about him from Dave, but this was the first time they met in person."Based

    She felt warm on her skin. Also, a soft and warm breeze brushed over her neck, bringing a shiver to her body. A second later, she sensed warmth moving on her swollen belly, rubbing it so gently as if fearing to wake her up."Hmm." She stirred from her sleep, the result of those doings. Only then did she realize hands wrapped around her, and she knew whose those were. "Dave." Her voice came throatily from sleep."I'm sorry I woke you up." He mumbled against the nook of her neck.She heard it but didn't want to answer him as her voice was stuck in her throat. But she couldn't do it anymore when her eyes fluttered open and dark welcomed her through a glass wall which gave a view of the dark sky. "It's still dark.""Yes.""What time is it?""It's past midnight.""Why aren't you sleeping?"Instead of replying, he tightened his arms and dug his face deeper into her neck. His hand slipped inside her nightdress and caressed her tummy. "I can't sleep.""Why?" She wriggled her body to turn arou

    "The preparation is doing good, right?" Dave asked Eddie, General Manager of The Byrne Hotel in Los Angeles, as they took a look at the hall designated for his event to take place. It was still filled with other decorations, as it would be occupied for someone's event for tonight."Yes. We have everything that we need ready. Gifts also have arrived, and we're working to put them into goodie bags."Dave nodded his head in understanding. "Pack them nicely and make sure those are right for each occasion. Don't get confused." He gave further orders.As planned, they would split the event into two, the vow and the party. And because of that, they would use a separate hall, decorations, gifts for guests, food, and more. They had different preparation for each occasion."Sure. We have a lot of experience with these things. I assure you everything will be in expert hands. You can enjoy your time with your bride.""Okay. I trust you with this.""Yes."Then they walked together for a few minute

    "I'm like a dolphin already!" Her voice echoed throughout the room. She was standing in front of the mirror, checking her appearance from the reflection. She wore an A-line midi dress in black, which fell nicely on her body. But it also made her baby bump visible."Says who?" Dave was walking toward her while buttoning his shirt."Me." She still focused on her own reflection, as if looking for something to satisfy her."Then you're wrong. You don't look like one at all." He slipped his arms around her waist. "Instead, you look sexier." He landed a kiss on her neck and began to stroke her stomach gently. It was almost six months, and the bump was pretty big."Don't lie to me, Dave. Look at me. Everything in my body is swollen now. Even my cheeks are full.""That's what makes you sexy, honey. I like how your body changes."She narrowed her eyes at his reflection. "Liar.""I'm not. I'm being honest with you.""I don't believe you."There was a sound of a sigh before he planted the last k
