2024-12-06 04:08:52She recalled that she had not asked him who she was and what he was doing there. Recalling what happened, she had called her friend Becky to take her to hospital but she didn’t see her when she woke up. Who could have taken her to the hospital? Could it be that man?
“Are you the one who took me to the hospital?” she asked. Alexander Reid nodded his head. “How did you see me? Do you live at Queens residence?” she asked. “No, I don’t live there, you called me,” he answered. “What do you mean? I don’t recall that.” She took her phone whose power was running low and checked the call history. She realized when she dialed Becky's number, she entered one digit wrongly and the number turned out to be Alexander Reid. “Thank you very much Sir and am very sorry for bothering you that much.” Alexander Reid smiled,” am very much privileged to be of help to you,” he responded. “Am sorry,” Alexander Reid added. “Why are saying that?” Vanessa was surprised not knowing what he meant. “In the call, you begged me to save your baby, I didn’t do that.” “Why blame yourself? You spared your time to help me. There are very few people who can respond positively to a request from a wrong number. "Thanks very much,” she said. Alexander Reid extended his hand toward her,” Am Alexander Reid, pleasure to meet you.” Vanessa shook his hand,” am Vanessa, pleasure to meet you too and thanks very much for everything you have done for me,” she said while smiling at him. Her smile was sweet and intoxicating, he liked it. He just hoped that she could continue smiling. He was one of those people who strongly believed that people should never determine what future life. One had to cut off unimportant people from their lives and do whatever made them happy. That was the rule of life. “I hate the hospital environment so much, can I get discharged?” she asked. “The doctor said that you will be okay as long as you take enough rest.” “Let me you help with the discharge procedure,” Alexander Reid said as he stood up. “I’ll greatly appreciate that.” Alexander Reid left the ward and she was the only one remaining behind. She was going to be discharged from the hospital, but she could not go back to Lucas house. She had signed the divorce agreement and she was no longer his wife. She had no right to access his property. She could not go back to the Hayes family. She didn’t want to meet her stepmother and stepsister knowing that they will ridicule her.She had no one to turn to. Alexander Reid came to the ward a while later. Yes, he was ready to leave the hospital but where was she going? “Are you okay? Is there something bothering you?” he asked. Vanessa shook her head. “Sorry for disturbing you, can I stay in the hospital for a few more days?” “Why are you not feeling well? Are you feeling any discomfort or pain? I’ll call the doctor.” “That’s not the case Mr. Alexander, it’s only that...” she could not bring herself to utter the words in her mouth. How could she bring herself to tell him that she didn’t have a home, she didn’t have anywhere to go after leaving the hospital? It could be better for her if she could stay at the hospital for a couple of days as she thinks about what to do and where to go. “Vanessa talk to me please.” For the short time she had known him, Vanessa could tell that he was a good person who was ready to help her wholeheartedly. She could not see any problem sharing what was disturbing her with Alexander Reid. “I don’t have anywhere to go, we are already divorced,” she said in a low voice. It was an embarrassing thing to say that to the person who had helped her but Alexander Reid did not take her words the way she thought. Alexander Reid could not ask her more about her family. He was sure that she would tell him if she wanted and at the same time it was such a simple task for him to get all the information about her, her family and whatever she does. He understood how it felt to have no family or friends who you could turn to when you were in problem. The only thing he could do was to come to quickly come up with a way of helping her. “You can stay in my house for a couple of days, I think that would be okay.” Vanessa thought about it. He would have helped her a lot if he could allow her to stay in his house off a few days. “Thanks very much,” she said with tears in her eyes. Those were the only words she could say to such a heavenly send savior. After receiving a thousand and one instructions from the doctor, the two finally left the hospital. She didn’t have any luggage so Alexander held her hand so that he could support her while walking. He opened the front passenger’s door for her and helped her sit down. The interior design of the car was beautiful. Thinking about her past, Lucas Hayes has never carried her in his new car. He adjusted her seat so that she could feel comfortable. He then started the car driving very carefully so that the car could not bump up and down. She had not yet recuperated so the doctor had warned her not to strain her body which could make her bleed. After taking a whole hour for a ten minutes’ drive, he parked the car outside his mansion. That was the place he would spent his time when he didn’t want to go back home. He had bought the mansion years back when he knew that in future he won’t be staying with that Woman.Related chapters

Alexander Reid helped her get down from the car. Holding her hand, he led her to the house. The mansion was big and Vanessa was surprised. She never thought that Alexander was living in such a place. She knew that rich people would never help others easily but Alex's action made her disagree with that belief. “This your room, make yourself comfortable,” he said before leaving the room. Vanessa sat by the side of the bed as she looked around the room. The walls were lively and painted pink, the color she liked. The bed was so big that it could accommodate up to six people. She felt sticky everywhere, she felt as if it saw ages since the last time she took a bath. She wanted to take a very good shower and rest. She stood up with some struggle and headed to the bathroom. A hot shower was already prepared and she couldn’t tell when and who prepared it. A c

At the corner of the corridor leading to his study, Alexander hid there as he looked at her secretly. She was running as if someone was chasing after her. He thought that she would be happy if he brings a caregiver to her but it was if he was wrong. Alexander knew that all girls yearned being taken care of by someone, but it was not the case for her. He shook his head then entered his study. He picked the document that contained all the information about Vanessa and started reading through it. "Lucas Hayes" he whispered the name. The name was not very new to him, he had heard of it. He was the only son of the Hayes family in the city. He had seen him a couple of times in business parties but he had never talked to him. Although the Hayes family was rich, it could never be compared to the Reid's family. The two families were like worlds apart. The wealth of almost all the top one hundred families together could not be at the same level as the wealth of the Reid's family.

one week later. Vanessa woke up as usual and sat on the bed. She felt okey now. It was time to leave Steve's place. She didn't want to overstay the welcome. Thought ran through her mind. Marrying Lucas was Vanessa's biggest dream in the past decade. They were childhood sweethearts, grew up together and fell in love with each other. she married him and conceived his child even without expecting. She was excited when the doctor told her she was pregnant. She thought that fate had allowed her to realize her dream. Overjoyed, she thought that she would dedicate herself to building a future with Lucas and their child. She thought she was the happiest woman in the phase of the world, but all were like imaginations and fantasies which would never come true. The so-called happiness was more fragile than bubbles, and the so called love and marriage was one sided. Lucas was the one who did the wrong thing, and his girlfriend, her sister, was the one who caused Vanessa to lose her

The call was connected almost immediately. "Hello Dr Blake,""Hello,Mr Alexander.""How is he? How is the development?""Mr Alexander, for now everything is fine, but we have to observe his development first before wecan get sure if he would survive or not." Alex kept quite for a while as if he was thinking about something. "Mr Reid?" the doctor spoke when he realized he was silent. "Please, try everything you can, make sure he survives." After ending the call, Alex went to his study. The child was in a test tube, his life was at stake,but he wanted to do everything to make sure he survives and develop into maturity. He picked up his phone to make another call, this time to a very close person whom he had not communicated to for a while. Looking at the phone ringing, Alex smiled. "Hey man, not mad at me any more?" he heard the joking voice from the other end of the call. He giggled, " am still mad at you ugly du

After taking a few steps, Lucas Hayes stopped. 'Forget it, it's just an unknown woman, there's no need to continue to pay attention to her. It's waste time!' he thought. He followed his assistant out of the room. All along, Vanessa had been focusing all her attention on the computer screen, completely unaware that Lucas had come to that restaurant. After she finished working on the computer she ordered another set of dishes for herself, all of which she liked. When Becky arrived at this restaurant, she was completely stunned when she looked at the large table of dishes. In order to control her figure, Vanessa was very picky with food. She wanted to remain slim so that she could be attractive to Lucas Hayes long ago. She could never eat fatty foods and junk foods. In the past, Vanessa could eat healthy foods, including vegetables, f

Becky had realized how much Vanessa had changed, but she still felt that a person's appearance was easy to change, but personality preferences were not. She still regarded a Vanessa as the girl who once needed to be protected by her. Becky took Vanessa's hand into hers,then you have to go with me to my house tonight, we haven't seen each other for so long, I need to have a good chat with you." She wanted to spent some more time with her, but in addition she was actually worried that Vanessa had no place to go. She knew that Vanessa and Lucas were divorced. When the Moore's family learnt that she divorced Lucas, they broke off their relationship with Vanessa. Vanessa had no other place to go in the city unless she decided to stay in a hotel. Of course, Vanessa knew the situation she was in , so she nodded her head in agreement. Vanessa thought about som

Vanessa sat at the hospital bench as she waited for her turn to be attended by the doctor. It was a public hospital and the patients who wanted to be attended to were so many. It was already almost three hours since the time she arrived at the hospital and the waiting line was very long…….. Vanessa has been having stomach discomfort since the previous day and she thought that maybe she had consumed something that didn’t go well with her stomach. It was only that morning that she woke up to find that she was bleeding from down there that she decided to visit the doctor. At first she thought it was her monthly periods but had a doubt when she realized that the flow was heavy compared to her normal light flow. For the past one week, her husband had not stepped foot in that house. She was used to it. She loved him and she didn’t see anything wrong with it. Thinking about it, it was as if Vanessa was already used to him not being at home almost every day. “Vanessa,” the attend

[This chapter contains mature content‼️, please skip if you are uncomfortable reading it.] Lucas Hayes pushed her towards his bedroom with too much urgency. He pushed her towards the wall as his hands grabbed her boobs. He was too rough in his actions. Elaina Moore was mourning loudly from the pleasure she was receiving. He pushed her on the big bed then tore her dress into shreds. “Baby…my dress!!!!” She shouted. He destroyed the expensive dress he had bought for her during her twenty fifth birthday party. “Don’t worry about the dress baby, we will buy other nice dresses. She smiled. She knew that he would always give her money, despite the large amount she asked for. He was the man of her dreams, the man she loved. Lucas Hayes could not wait any longer to have her. He carried her and placed her on the bed as his hands roamed allover her body. He liked her body. She gave him the sweetest satisfaction he ever wanted.

Before he could utter a word, the door was pushed open and the doctor entered the ward. He took her body temperature and her heartbeat rate. “Madam, how are you feeling now?” the doctor asked. “Am feeling like my baby is not inside here.” That was the only feeling she had. The doctor looked at here, “Madam we are sorry for the loss of your baby, but again we are lucky that you are alive.” She felt her heart bleeding from pain. The joy she had did not even last for a day. The baby she had been asking for was just gone like that. She was not able to protect her child. “She pushed me down the stairs and made me lose my baby,” she cried. Alexander Reid who was listening to her could roughly guess what had happened. He moved closer to her and held her hand. He didn’t know how to console her but he had to try. “Don’t cry, don’t think about it anymore, you will get another baby, as beautiful as you.” “Really? Will I get another baby?’ she smiled then her smile faded. “But Luc

Vanessa stood up with struggle, she had to save her child. She dragged herself as blood trickled down her legs to the ground. “Hold in there baby, mummy is rushing to the hospital." The moment she got out of the gate, the pain became intense and she could not walk any more. She fell by the side of the road. She fumbled through her bag to get her phone. She quickly dialed her childhood friend’s number so that she could come over and help her. With too much struggle, she dialed the number which she had memorized and pressed the call button. “Becky, please save my baby, am at...” Before she could finish her words, she lost consciousness as he phone fell on the ground. At the Reid Corporation. Alexander Reid sat at his desk with his eyes fixed on the computer. His phone vibrated with an incoming call. He looked at the new number. He hated being disturbed by phone calls when he was busy with his work. He was used to turning it off or put it on silent mode when he didn’t want to get di
