The Billionaire’s Contract Fiancee Chapter 196
Sebastian couldn’t believe what he had just heard. There was no way she was pregnant, he wasn’t going to believe this. She was trying to tie down and keep him in this relationship with her by any means necessary and this was the best way to do it if he kicked his pregnant ex-fiancée out of his house, nothing was stopping her from doing a media tour narrating her side of the story and given how many people were in love with her right now, he didn’t need a shaman to tell him the impact it would have on his personal and business life. If she’s been pregnant for a month, why was he just knowing now? It wasn’t making any sense to him and given the situation they were in right now, it was so hard to do the math. She had kept the information from him on purpose and now that she had the whole night to herself to think about how best she could salvage this relationship of theirs, she had come up with a pregnancy scare to keep him always.“I know what’s going on in your head and I know you thi

Sebastian paused at the top of the stairs for a moment before he made his way down, rushing towards Ava who was starting to bleed from a gash on her head already. He let his anger get the best of him and he had unintentionally pushed her off the stairs, he quickly lifted her from the floor and made his way to his car. He could still feel her pulse but he knew he had to get her to a hospital as fast as he could, he didn’t know what excuse he would give right now but he was going to eventually come up with something to hide the truth that he pushed her.He raced in record time to the hospital and the emergency unit was on hand to whisk her away and straight to the theatre. Despite everything that had transpired between the both of them, he was scared of anything major happening to her. He wouldn’t know how to defend himself if it ever came down to that.“Mr. Bancroft,” Sebastian blinked twice as he turned towards the doctor’s voice. Doctor Phil had been his family’s doctor for decade

“So what do you think would be best for the unborn child?” Sebastian asked. “That’s of the utmost importance because I had a rethink and there’s also a chance I might be the father and I wouldn’t want to miss anything involving my child, no matter whatever differences I might have with the mother right now.”“At this moment, you can’t do anything except stay by her side if you can do that but if the problem between the both of you has gone beyond its repairable stage, you can set her up with the required assistance she would need during her pregnancy and when she gives birth, I’ll conduct a DNA test to find out the paternity of the child.”“Thank you, Dr. Phil.” Sebastian began. “I’m grateful for your help.”“What happens if you find out the child isn’t yours?”“We would make the breakup official and I’ll be willing to tell anyone who wants to listen how she cheated on me with some lowlife she met a couple of months ago.”“And what if you find out that the child is yours?”“I’ll take

Ava was finally going to be discharged today. She had worked her back to good health with the aid of Dr. Phil and the constant nags from her sister and her best friends. While she wasn’t a fan of the stress they put her through, she was glad that they had gone through the struggle of making sure she never skipped her meals or her meds. It had helped her take her mind of Sebastian, Dr. Phil hadn’t managed to convince him to come see her even once and while she had the slightest hint that he wasn’t really taking up her complaints and requests to Sebastian, she could understand why Dr. Phil was a professional and it was difficult enough to maintain a cordial relationship with two partners in a complicated relationship.It would be best if she sorted out her mess by herself without the help of anyone. But what she was most grateful for was the fact that her friends had decided not to inquire about Sebastian’s unavailability until she properly recovered. They didn’t want to set her back f

Dejected, Ava falls to the floor and sobs. Her relationship was over and she was pregnant with a man that didn’t want anything to do with her or her baby. This was the most painful moment of her life because she had no idea what she wanted to do right now, her head was blank and bereft of ideas. She didn’t know who to call or where to start from, she had never been so lost in her entire life even when her parents died, she could still hold on to a center, Kim. But now, there was nothing and there was no one. Her sister and best friends had their own lives to live now and she’d taken up so much of their time during her days in the hospital and she couldn’t bring herself to ask for any much more, it would be ridiculous at the very least. Ava rubbed her stomach as she wiped the back of her eyes with the other hand. She wished she could go back in time to right the wrongs that had taken place but she couldn't, which meant she had to pick up what was left of her life and try to rebuild f

It’s not going to change anything or affect anything either,” Sebastian continued to argue.“Who says it would?” Damian retorted. “I’m only seeking clarifications and nothing else. I love both of you to bits and I want the best for every party involved. Now, will you answer my questions and stop beating around the bush like a dummy?” Sebastian poured the contents of the bottle down his throat at a go before tossing it into the refuse bin. “A couple of weeks earlier, right about when it was time for Ava to come home from her trip to the Philippines, I got a call from Jake and—““Isn’t Jake the same guy you’ve always been talking about with much contempt and hate that you couldn’t even disguise no matter what?” Damian cut in, the story had started in a manner that he never expected. They have been through good times without Jake being involved and he couldn’t figure out why he was present in this story right now. “Will you let me finish before you say anything else?” Sebastian snappe

Damian found his way to Sebastian’s email and stared at the pictures for a couple of minutes, trying to find one little error or mistake that would give it away as a doctored photograph but it was difficult. If it was doctored, the editor who made this was a genius but to clear his doubts and to make certain that his best friend wasn’t being fooled by Jake, he would enlist the help of a professional to determine the authenticity of the photographs he was staring at. “Can I borrow your laptop for a couple of days?” Damian asked, shutting the laptop down, he’d seen enough. “What for?” Sebastian asked, staring at him through the corner of his eyes as he stared at the sun with his sunglasses on. “I’ve got a friend who’s good with these kinds of stuff, I’m hoping to give him the laptop so he’d help me out with a couple of things I need to find out.”“Are you talking about the photographs Jake sent to me, Damian?” Sebastian removed his sunglasses and turned towards him.“Yes, that’s what

Living alone in the penthouse was becoming an arduous task for Ava but she struggled to get past each day as it came as the days rolled by, it was obvious that she was losing the battle and there was no help in sight to pull her out of the mud she was sinking into. Losing Sebastian had hurt more than she ever envisaged. She had believed that forcing her heart to rack up defenses against the impact of his absence would help to some extent but she had been wrong. Every moment she woke up without seeing next to her or seeing him seated on the kitchen counter in a suit and with the day’s paper in his hands broke her heart even more.She swallowed her pride and tried to reach out to him on several occasions but the calls always went to voicemails, it was a desperate act but she was a desperate woman right now, fighting for crumbs falling off the dinner table. The only reason she hadn’t gone to his office was that she was finding it difficult to get up from the bed, she only did so when

One month laterThe wedding had been a splendid affair and from the start, Ava was practically forbidden from lifting a finger for herself by Kim, Renee, Violet, and the flock of servants at her disposal due to how heavy she had become and she resorted to staying put unless she risked the ire of the women helping her dress up. Sebastian had planned a proposal with the rest of their friends leaving her in the dark. It was unexpected and it felt real and different this time around, they had come through so many difficulties and they both knew it was the right time to make it all real this time around.At the stroke of midnight on her wedding, Ava was standing at the entrance of the hall already adorned with palatial decorations with cascading floral arrangements hanging from every side of the grand room, sparkling white chandeliers hung high above with delicate draperies completing the settings designed to evoke an atmosphere filled with love and warmth. A group of violinists was posit

It’s been two months since Sebastian was released from the hospital and Ava moved into the mansion with him. The penthouse held too many hurtful memories and she wasn’t eager to go back there and be plagued by nightmares during her sleep. Jake’s trial hadn’t taken a lot of time either, there was a ton of insurmountable evidence against him and the jury didn’t take much liking to him either, or the judge. In reality, no one was going to take the side of a journalist with murderous intentions over New York’s most desirable couple. Their return to the spotlight had been a field day in the media world especially as articles and gossip about their breakup had been going on for a while now, their appearance together had all but quietened every rumor going on about them. Ava was becoming used to being pregnant and after a few weeks of tedious work down at the agency, she had gone on maternity leave that would run well into a few months after she gave birth.One of her favorite parts of be

Damian looked back and forth between Ava and Sebastian and it was pretty obvious that they had eyes for just each other right now, everything else faded into the background. He didn’t need any further clue, his time here was up.“I believe it’s best I give you both some space to talk things through.” Damian cleared his throat, gave Sebastian a nod, and patted Ava’s shoulders as he walked past her. “Do you think they’re going to be fine?” Violet asked Damian as soon as he got to the door. Sebastian spared them a glance over his shoulder before returning his gaze to Violet. “I can’t possibly say for sure but if what I noticed between them was true then we’ve got nothing to worry about.As soon as Ava heard the door shut behind her, she walked towards the bed, maintaining a friendly distance as she pulled out a chair and sat on it. Sebastian didn’t know how to start tackling their issues so he decided to make small talk first, it always worked for him and he was hoping that it wouldn

Ava made her way outside the building and towards the parking lot, it was lonely, just how she wanted it to be. She didn’t want any disturbance or interference from anyone. All Ava had wanted was for Sebastian to wake up from his coma. She spent days at his bedside, urging him to come back to her and he eventually did but she ran. There was no telling why she ran and she didn’t even have any logical explanation as to why she did it, the only thing she could say is that she was scared shitless and that was all she could say. She would eventually have to go back and talk to him afterward but she didn’t know if she could bring herself to do it. “Hey, sis.” Ava looked up to see Kim walking towards her flanked on either side by Renee and Violet, they all wore worried expressions on their faces and she could tell from their hesitation that they didn’t know if they should come any closer or maintain a healthy distance. “How did you guys find me?” Ava asked, her eyes were fixed to the g

“I’m only trying to look out for you,” Kim sighed. “I’m tired of seeing you crying after a couple of months where you think you’re in love and your troubles are behind you. It hurts me as much as it hurts you, Ava.” “I know,” Ava smiled sadly. Kim was right, she’d always been eager to jump right back into it without putting provisions in place in case her assumed fairytale moment didn’t come to pass. But things were different this time around, she had been through a lot and as a result, she’d been forced to put herself first for now before anyone else and if anything was going to happen, she would be the last person to instigate anything. She’d done enough and it wasn’t going to work, she wasn’t going to invest her time lifting a finger. She’s done enough already. “Things aren’t going to be the way it once was. I promise you that.”“Tell me you’re sure you know what you’re doing?” Kim nibbled on her lower lip. “I can’t promise you I know what I’m doing, Kim. But my heart is in the

“You really should stop feeling this way and making us feel like we’re strangers as well,” Kim frowned. “We’re here because we love and care about you, that’s the truth. You’re part of our lives so I don’t see how you keep interfering in what you’re a major part of. You’ve got to accept that so you’d stop feeling like you owe us something because you don’t.”Ava sighed. “Okay, you’re right and I’m sorry for feeling this way. It’s unusual to see a lot of people wanting to help me at the same time and that’s why I reacted that way,” “It’s okay, we don’t hold it against you. We know your past and how you’re still getting used to a couple of good gestures. Kim suffers from the same problem as well.” Violet assured her. “So, you mentioned that Sebastian woke up a while ago?” Kim asked, eager to steer the conversation away from their childhood. She wasn’t prepared to visit memories that she had worked so hard to repress. “Yes, he did. He wasn’t a hundred percent conscious and the doctors

Ava walked back into the hospital room as soon as the doctor mentioned it was okay for her to return. She walked back into the room to see Sebastian soundly asleep. “Is everything alright, doctor?” Ava sounded worried. “Did he go to sleep on his own or did he pass out?”“We gave him a sedative to keep him under for a couple of hours until he regains his full strength, he should feel much after he wakes up this time around and that’s what we’re hoping for. When that happens, we can then begin the final stage of his recovery process.” Ava nodded. “Thank you, doctor. We’re so grateful for the help you’ve rendered.”“It’s my pleasure to help. I’ve known Sebastian since we were both boys and my father has been the Bancroft’s family doctor for decades. He’s like family to me as well.” “Do I need to call you guys once he wakes up?” Ava asked, her eyes fixed on Sebastian. “You don’t need to, we’d be counting down the hours ourselves and carrying out checkups before midnight. You’ve got no

It’s been a week since the ugly incident and Sebastian hadn’t woken up yet. Ava was struggling to pull it together but she knew she didn’t have any other option, she couldn’t afford to break down right now not when she had to look after herself and the baby as well given the fact that the pregnancy was entering into its crucial phase.The doctor urged her to give him time and be patient till he decided to come around. His vitals were good and his condition was improving, he was going to wake up any moment from now, the doctor would always say giving her a warm smile in return. The conviction in his voice always seemed to calm Ava’s nerves so she waited calmly until Sebastian decided to come around.She was in his hospital room, sitting on a chair next to the hospital bed, her knees were pulled up under her chin with her face buried between a historical romance novel by Nora Roberts. Reading helped her calm down and forget her worries and she’d been doing a lot of it during the past f

“Life isn’t meant to be fair to everyone,” Damian offered Ava a soft smile. “It’s just the way life is and we’ve got to make the best out of what we’re given.”“Sebastian doesn’t deserve this,” Ava grumbled.“No one does but shit happens.” Damian shuffled his feet as he struggled to find a comfortable situation. “Do you think he’s going to come out of this? Be honest with me. I could use that right now if you don’t mind.”“Sebastian’s tough as nails. He’s one of the most stubborn men I’ve ever met and if there’s anyone I know who’s going to come out of this, it’s Sebastian.”“Thank you, Damian.” Ava rubbed her arms, trying to calm her nerves. “You’re welcome. If there’s anything you need, please, do not hesitate to inform me.”“I’m good. Besides, I have a lot of people doting on me already and you have work to do.” “If you say so but I’m still here if you need anything.”“I should’ve done this a long time ago but I want to thank you for talking to Sebastian and managing to convince
