Today is the day my baby’s paternity is determined. Luckily, it is a Saturday, so I don’t have to deal with Mia and Stacy’s trite comments about my weight and distraction at work. I didn’t even know that I was adding weight! I had tried to get Alex to agree to accompany me to the hospital, but she had been too busy dealing with work and nursing her broken heart; I still feel guilty about that one, even though I know that I shouldn’t. Hopefully, the results will clear things up.
I cross and uncross my legs several times while I wait for both males to arrive, and pretend that I am not nervous or scared out of my mind. The hospital is beautiful, frequented by many celebrities. They had taken steps to deviate from the normal sterile white environment of hospitals by painting the walls a cher

BECK- PRESENTUnbelievable!I look at the mail in front of me and curse out loud. Rosa pokes her head into my office to see if I am okay, but I wave her off. I still haven't fully forgiven her.The mail is long and detailed, including a picture of a sonogram and blood work of the mother. But that is not the part that holds my attention. I've been had! Rainbow successfully fucked me over! How did I not see this coming? Me, who has always been careful! It didn’t even happen with Teresa, and heaven knows that she tried.I groan and slump in my chair, all thoughts about work forgotten. My 300 square meters office suddenly feels claustrophobic, and I struggle to loosen my necktie when I decide to take the day off.“Reschedule all my appointments, I'm taking the rest of today off." I inform Rosa. “Are you okay?” She asks with motherly concern. “Rainbow is having my child.” “Oh!” Rosa gasps out with a sympathetic look.I shake my head when she tries to get out of her seat, and hightail it fo

BETH- PRESENTI can't believe it, I was so sure!I re-read the mail displayed on my screen for the umpteenth time, waiting to see if the details will change. But nope. Still the same. I saw the mail late last night and I ignored it because I was not ready to deal. Even now, especially after reading the message, I am still not ready.My phone has been ringing incessantly, and after the fifth missed call from Chase, I finally put the phone on silent mode. The doctor says I'm anemic, but who cares about that? I'm having Beck's child! I wonder if my baby will have his eyes, or maybe his smile. My brain is scrambled. I cannot pay attention at work. Throughout the day, I find myself absently rubbing my stomach with a mixture of joy and bewilderment; so much so that one of my colleagues asks me if I had a belly ache. I chuckle.There is another mail in my box, one from a certain Mr. Cruise. Seeing as all my encounters with him have been anything but smooth, I have been avoiding opening it. M

BETH- PRESENTBeing back in the apartment I shared with Chase feels unreal: everything seems different, yet nothing has changed. The picture we took on our fifth anniversary still hangs over the fireplace, I can see the gardening magazines I never got around to using, and the dumbbells that I could never figure out where to keep. The kitchen was the same as well. It looks like Chase did not use the place since I left.While I complete my inspection, Chase just follows quietly behind me, opening and closing doors as I pass. “Everything is the same.” I comment when I finish looking around. I didn’t go to the bedroom, why would I? That room holds memories that I am not ready to visit. “I wanted it to be the same when you come back.” He replies. When he sees my questioning look, he cap

BETH- PRESENTWell this is a surprise!When was the last time Chase kissed me with such abandon? Like his next breath depended on it? I cannot remember! The way he holds me, like I would disappear if he lets me go for even a second is both comical and heart wrenching.This is what I always wanted, a barely banked passion that spoke of the depths of his feelings. The emotions on his face are raw, and it causes a tear to slide down my face.“No tears, Beth, not here. Never again with me.” He pulls away to wipe the tear but I pull him right back.Finally, I have Chase the way I always wanted hi

BECK- PRESENT“I trust that you have a good explanation for why you ignored my summons yesterday?” The sight of the oppressing figure of Domenico Caliri is not something I look forward to as a start to my work day. Especially when he looks angry.Have you ever seen a death row inmate? I haven’t, but I assume that the way I feel right now must be the way they feel. I feel like a green teenager again and I am dreading this meeting.My day started on a fairly poor note. Despite the tight security on my building, there are a few paparazzi hanging about when I leave for work; I guess news about the child got out somehow. It was not my proudest moment, but I had to bully a few of them before they all got the messag

BETH- PRESENTHumiliated does not even begin to describe how I feel right now. I watch Chase's retreating form in mortification, remembering the gentle, yet firm way he turned me down. If I wasn't pregnant, I'd try to drown my shame in alcohol.What had I been thinking? What had he been thinking?Did he really not want me because we aren’t together, or does he not find me desirable anymore. I shake my head to dispel the thought. If it is true, I only have myself to blame. How can I expect him to want me when I am carrying another man’s child? Needless to say, I have a terrible night's rest.There is a media van in front of his building this morning. Its occupants do not notice me until I am safely behind my wheels and pulling away. How did they know I was here? Maybe they were waiting to interview Chase. If that's the case, are they harassing everyone I know? I need to check on them then.I manage to get into my office building undetected by going through the service entrance just beh

BECK- PRESENTI throw a punch, sweat dripping down my neck, muscles pulled tight and straining, knees bent to allow easy mobility, and arms held defensively before my face. I send another one flying with my left arm and duck in time to avoid being smacked in the face by the flying sandbag.I am frustrated, and it is obvious. I grunt, continuing to work out my frustrations. After thirty minutes of this, I grow bored. What I need is a drink, and maybe a woman to relieve the stress because the sandbag is not who I want to be punching.After work today, Rosa showed me an article from that gossip column I'm growing to hate. She showed it to me with an accusation in her eyes, like I had done something wrong. The incriminating paragraph worsens my temper, as if the visit from pappy and Alessia was not enough.All is not well in paradise, it would seem. After several attempts to contact the elusive Ms. Hart, we finally have something to report. It would seem that hers and our dear Enzo’s is n

BETH- PRESENT“I lost my job.” I cry into the phone the minute Alex picks up her phone.What a fool I had been! All those years of avoiding Alex, and I am right back where I was in highschool; laying my troubles at her feet!“Calm down Martian, where are you? I will be right over” She replies.“I’m at home, about to devour a litre of rock road ice cream, cause my life is now a rocky road!” I exclaim, then start to cry.“Give me some minutes, i'll be there.”I nod even though she cannot see me. Rocky road indeed; and to think I believed that I was having luck this morning. Curse Mia and her meddling! I should have just let things be, but I had to know the names of my colleagues that complained about me. Turned out to be team Mia! If I resume, I will have to deal with her. When, not if, my brain corrects. I shovel a chunk of ice cream into my mouth and let my tears flow. So, a part of me believes that this is it for me at Ophelia’s. I've had a good run, I shovel another spoon into my mo

The Billionaire's Baby Mama Epilogue
CHASE- PRESENTThe tiny bundle in my arms squirms for the millionth time and I adjust its weight in my arms. From the bundle, a sneeze escapes and the blonde sitting beside me turns to me with a smile. She coos at Rebecca Caliri and the baby regards her in turn with wise blue eyes.“Isn't she pretty?” She asks me. Before I can reply, a voice from behind shushes both of us.Oh God, get me out of here, I silently scream in my head as the wedding march begins playing on the piano. Elizabeth is a vision in white, walking down the aisle. The backyard has been transformed, lit with several blinking lights, shining in the darkness. The tree house has been transformed with roses of various colours rioting in their brilliance and fairy lights.The stars are shining brightly, and one of the reporters hanging around the premises, waiting to get a picture of the event, even commented on their brilliance. According to him, even the heavens are in support of this union.So why am I here holding a b

BECK- PRESENTI know the jig is up the minute Rainbow jumps to her feet and runs out, shouting,“I can't do this.”. I don’t like pity, but I pity myself as I watch her leave, feeling empty.“Go after her.” Chase prods me. “Go now, or I will.”I understand what he means, so I take off after her. I do not run, but take slow strides, using the time to organise my thoughts. There is only one place I expect her to go, so I go in that direction. True to my assumption, she is at the foot of our old treehouse. I had also renovated it, and the stairs are sturdy enough for her to climb, but she doesn't go up them, just looks up.“When did you know that I was pretending?” She asks me without turning to me.“I figured it out last week. Even though you claimed to have amnesia, you were hostile to me. I could tell that you blamed me for your accident, and after Teresa confessed, I understood why. I am so sorry, I never imagined that she was crazy.”“I did, I've been there.” She finally turns to me.

BETH- PRESENTTeresa attempts to murder Billionaire’s baby mama.Billionaire heiress committed to mental facility.Terezo fan club disbanded, leader faces lawsuit.Encore magazine temporarily shuts down, promises to bounce back.Dr. Lara Kent, arrested… medical license suspended.Teresa Vaughn Pierce put in a straight jacket after suicide attempt.The headlines are merciless, almost as merciless as the times I was dragged online. It is poetic justice, but I take no pleasure in her current suffering. As someone who has loved Beck for years, I can understand how she became obsessed with

BECK- PRESENTNever has the sight of Alessia comforted me so. But there she is, poised like a Valkyrie ready to go to war as she stands over Teresa. I quickly dart to the gun and kick it farther out of her reach. At the back of my mind, I am thinking about the fact that Alessia, one of the people I was sure hated me the most, had just saved my life.“Wait,” I frown, “baby brother?” I arch a brow at her and she flushes.“Well, I am older. Pappy did place you in my care.” She replies, studiously avoiding my gaze. Despite the situation, I burst into laughter which causes Teresa to scream.“Don't laugh! I was supposed to follow you into the afterlife. We're supposed to have our happily ever after in our next life! Why isn’t anything going my way!&rd

BECK- PRESENTMy face must look as dark as I feel because everyone goes out of their way to avoid me when I resume back to work. It's been over a week since I took my impromptu leave to be beside Rainbow. Now that she's awake I have no reason to be by her bedside, or so Mary insists; especially if she doesn't remember me, and for some reason, my presence seems to agitate her. The doctors say that amnesia is common with head injuries and that I should be patient, but patience is not one of my strongest suits. The last thing I feel is patience.The first person I see when I make it into my office is Alessia. What is she doing here and why in my office so early in the morning? I'm a bit surprised to see concern on her face, it's not an emotion I am used to seeing her direct my way."Are you okay?" She asks.

BETH- PRESENTSomeone is trying to kill me. I panic and try to escape, but everywhere is pitch black, so dark, I cannot see my feet under me. I tried to scream, but my voice wouldn't work.What is going on? I can't move my body. I want to escape this lonely dark place. I can feel the passage of time, but I don't know exactly how much time has passed. Somebody help me! I call out with my mind and, like an answer to my plea, I hear a voice."Hey, baby!” I feel hands run through my hair and I feel a mixture of happiness, anger, and anxiety. I have to get away from those hands, someone is trying to kill me. I'm near hysteria when the voice comes again.“The doctors say that our daughter is fine and that you are too. They put you in a coma so that your brain can heal;” Daughter?

BECK- PRESENTWhen was the last time you saw a grown man cry? I don't cry because it is unsightly and makes me feel emasculated. But seeing Beth hooked to life support breaks me in ways I didn't think possible. It brings back memories of my childhood and my mother’s accident. That feeling of waiting helplessly for a miracle can be overwhelming. In my mother’s case, she had been rushing home to watch a recital of my latest hobby when she got into the accident. In this case, Beth had been running away from me.“Why don’t you speak to her?” My blurry gaze settles on Mary. “The doctor says that she can hear us, and I'm sure she would like to hear from you.”It's been three days since the accident, three days in which I have only left her side to do the bare minimum needed to survive. My once immacula
The Billionaire's Baby Mama Fifty Five
BECK- PRESENTVivid images of days spent in this place flash like a kaleidoscope. I remember Mary, she had filled the void that the loss of my mother had created. I remember goofing around with my brothers, Jace and Embee. Shining brighter than the colors she used to wear is Beth, my Rainbow. I remember cuddling in the treehouse trading stories with her. I remember everything; every laugh, tear, argument, and banter.Before I can collect my thoughts and sort through the images rushing through my head, I hear the sound of a gun cocking behind me.“Turn around slowly and put your hands where I can see them.” A shaky voice instructs. What is going on? I comply and begin turning slowly. “Don’t try anything funny, or I will shoot.”When I turn around, I see a frail-lo

BECK- PRESENTI drive to the address that Mr. Phil gives to me brooding throughout the drive. That snake had purposely taken Beth away from me just to provoke me, I know this. Why then did I beg with such desperation for him to tell me where she is?An emotion that had been nagging me all evening shoves its way into consciousness. I am not a man that has ever lied to myself, and I am not going to start now. I will admit that Elizabeth fascinated me from the start. Meeting her had given me a strong sense of deja vu; and after finding out that we have a history, it had made me feel closer to her. I will also admit that I had been too cowardly to delve deep into the history we had, rather I skimmed the surface of the report I had been given by my security agent because a part of me had been scared of what I'd find.But she intrigues me. I'd
