The Billionaire’s Mysterious Wife Chapter Fifty-Seven
"Open your eyes Eve, please wake up." Henry cried out. He began to wiggle Eve while rubbing her left palm vigorously.He lifted her from the spot, carried her in his arms and placed her in the centre of the office. After discovering that her heart was still beating, he leapt for joy but didn't stop panicking.Henry immediately pulled out his cellphone and with trembling hands, he dialled Dane's number."Eve! she passed out. Come to her office right now!" he screamed to Dane, breathing heavily.Dane ran to Eve's office and saw Henry kneeling beside her unconscious body, trying to revive her."What happened to her?" Dane said and swept her off the floor.Henry ran to open the door properly so Dane could head out. "She passed out," Henry replied."We need to get her to a hospital."Dane hurried out of the office with Eve in his arms while Henry ran after them. When they got to the reception, the employees around began to whisper."Isn't that Mr Richard's new assistant?""What happened to

"I'm sorry guys. No patient relatives are allowed within here. You guys can sit here." the chubby nurse said and pointed to a bench at the corner."What? I have to go in. How am I going to know that she's fine?" Henry countered and tried to force himself into the ward.Eve was placed on the bed while one of the nurses ran out to get the doctor.Dane gripped Henry's arm, preventing him from forcing his way into the emergency unit."Let them do their job boss," Dane said and pulled Henry away to the corner.Soon, the doctor came running out of his office. When Dane and Henry saw him, they rushed to meet him."What happened?" he demanded."She's allergic to nuts and we didn't know about it so she ate two bars of chocolates with nuts in them and then she went blank," Henry reported."Did you administer any drug to her before she passed out?" the doctor asked."Nothing. We gave her nothing but drove her straight here," replied Dane."Okay."The doctor rushed to the emergency room while Hen

Henry saw the water bottle flying toward him and he ducked immediately. The bottle missed his head and hit the wall before landing on the floor."What a way to wake up Eve," he commented with his left hand on his chest, breathing heavily."You're lucky that I missed my target," Eve replied and folded her arms across her chest. Dane couldn't stop chuckling."So you intentionally wanted to hit me?" Henry demanded and moved closer to her. "What is wrong with you?" he growled."Well, you nearly sent her to the cemetery so you got what you deserve," Dane said with a blink.Henry sighed. "Why would you do such a thing Eve?" He was still yelling.Eve glared at him and screamed at his face. "You wanted to kill me.""No." Henry fired back and shook his head. "Why did you force me to eat that damn chocolate? As if I knew there was something about it that made me reject it but you went ahead and forced me." Eve continued."Easy!" Dane intervened. "You just woke up. You can't be yelling like th

"And I'm sorry for yelling at you for throwing the bottle at me," said Henry."You had the right to yell at me. I attacked you." she acknowledged."Well, I should have been more sensitive. You just woke up and I'm yelling at you," replied Henry. "I'm sorry." he quickly added."I should be the one apologising here." Eve disagreed. "I mean who wakes up and launches an attack on her saviour?" They both laughed."If I didn't miss, that bottle would have landed on my forehead." Henry pointed out."It means that I'm a sharpshooter so, next time, you might not see it coming and might not get the chance to duck." Eve jokingly warned him."I'll take note of that." Henry agreed with a nod."And Dane, oh my God, I made him angry that he had to leave." lamented Eve. She shook her head and palmed her forehead with her left hand."Don't you worry about Dane? He was probably tired and needed to leave anyway." Henry said."When I get out of here, the first thing I'll do is apologise to Dane." Eve dis

After Eve dropped the phone beside her pillow, she turned to Henry. "My friends will be here soon. They are mad already and I know they'll come here raining insults at me for being careless." She said,He smiled. "They care about you. You can't blame them."Eve nodded. "I don't know what I'll do with those two. They are more than just my friends."Henry agreed with a nod. "Friends are priceless. Keep them if you find the good ones.""And since they are going to be here any moment from now, you can leave sir. You've overstayed anyway," she told Henry. "I'll wait for them to show up. I can't just leave you here all alone." Henry replied."In less than thirty minutes, Olivia and Jen will come busting through that door so why don't you head home. You've done much already. I can stay by myself for thirty minutes " insisted Eve.Henry shook his head. "I'll only leave the moment they show up. I just don't feel comfortable leaving you by yourself here," he told her.Eve smiled. "This is a ho

"Thank you both for saving me.""We had to. If you had died back then, what were we going to tell your family?" Dane asked with a smile.Eve shook her head. "I can't imagine the pain and sadness they would have gone through."Dane turned to Henry. "And your poor boyfriend? Only God knows what his reaction might be if he found out. He might charge Mr Richard to court for poisoning his lover."Eve smiled but Henry didn't find the comment funny. He rose to his feet and faced Dane."Are you crazy?" he screamed. Eve was shocked at Henry's sudden change of countenance but Dane wasn't. Dane made the statement to establish a point but Eve took it as a mere joke.Now, Henry had just fallen into Dane's trap."What are you saying, Dane?" Henry went on yelling."Calm down boss," Dane replied and stood up. "Oh don't you tell me to calm down." Henry fired back. Henry was screaming and Eve didn't know why.She tried to intervene. "Why are you screaming at Dane sir?"Henry turned to her. "Didn't yo

Henry made his way out of the hospital after using his credit card to sort Eve's bills. He shook his head after recollecting his fight with Dane and pulled out his car from the hospital's parking lot. He sighed and sped home.Back in the private ward, Eve narrated to Olivia and Jen the events that occurred in the past hours. She spared no detail of the heated argument between Henry and Dane. However, she didn't inform them about the near-kissing incident that occurred between Henry and her.The woman didn't accept her offer of them leaving her to spend the night alone. They stayed with her all through the night till she was discharged the next day. While leaving the hospital for her apartment, Jen suggested that Eve should phone or text Henry, to show her appreciation while Olivia countered the suggestion stating that it was Henry who made Eve eat the chocolates in the first place. Eve didn't tell them whether she will be reaching out to Henry or not.Jen and Olivia finally left at no

Eve stood in front of her. " What are you doing? Get your lousy self out of my way. I must see Henry immediately." she screamed.Eve heaved a deep sigh. "I've been trying to keep my cool from the moment you walked in here but it seems you want us to take things the other way.""And since when does a bloody assistant tell me what to do?""I'm not telling you what to do miss. I just want us to be civilised here.""Civilised? So you are saying I'm not civilised?" the lady was now screaming at top of her voice. She dumped her bag on the sofa and folded her arms across her chest, staring directly into Eve's eyes."I don't want us to create a scene here. I'll appreciate it if you understand me and behave like a rational being." Eve maintained."How dare you hurl insults at me? You good for nothing personal assistant."Eve shook her head. She has had enough of this rude lady. "I won't have you hurl insults at me rather." she fired back.The lady nodded repeatedly and looked at Eve from head

"I never thought you would show up!" Dane remarked the moment Olivia slapped her purse on the round table. "We are talking about preparations for my best friend's wedding here. I wouldn't mind seeing your annoying face." She replied and sat opposite him. Dane chuckled and crossed his legs. Henry and Eve broke the news of their engagement to them a week ago. Dane was to serve as Henry's best man while Olivia, was the chief bridesmaid. It's two weeks to the wedding and preparations were already heating up. Dane had invited Olivia that evening to the cafe so they could review their plans for the wedding. "Do you want anything?" He asked and pointed to the menu card. Olivia waved her hand down. "I'm good." Dane reclined on the chair. "You'll rather starve than have a drink with me don't you?" She broke into a laugh and grabbed the menu card. "You know what Dane? You have a way of cracking me up even when I'm being a tough girl." He sat up and blinked at her. "Maybe I was created

"So what's your plan? Staying all day in bed without a job till you have the baby?' Mrs Bloom raised her voice at Eve.Eve was sprawled on the bed, facing her phone. She was having a video call with her mother."Eve, if you don't want to get a job then at least you can tell Henry about the baby. He should have thought about his marriage before putting the baby there.""Come on mom!'"I'm serious, Eve. Child support is necessary. Meanwhile, I'm not happy with the fact that you planned to raise this baby alone. I didn't raise you alone so my grandbaby deserves a father." Mrs Bloom went on ranting.Eve sighed and stroked her forehead. "I have enough funds in my savings account that can cater for the baby so you don't have to worry about that and about speaking to Henry, I'll do that when the time is right.""You better do so.""Have you told dad about it?"Mrs Bloom arched a brow. "Didn't you say you'll do that yourself?"Eve gave repeated nods. "I'll come home mom and I'll tell him ever

Dane pulled his sports car to a halt at the entrance to the parking lot and quickly stepped out."This better be good." He muttered under his breath and charged toward Olivia who was standing under a lemon tree, a few meters away from the park entrance.It was a few minutes past 6 pm and about fifteen minutes earlier, Olivia had called Dane and asked her to meet with him, stating that they needed to speak urgently.He got to the spot she was standing and instantly flashed a smile at her. Why the hell was he grinning like a clown Olivia wondered and quickly turned away after a smirk.Dane cleared his throat loudly and gave his forehead a delicate scrape. He was not the kind of man who was used to putting his perfect set of dentition on display and he couldn't tell why he got excited and had to smile at the sight of Olivia.Olivia adjusted the leather bag hanging around her left arm and began taking steps toward Dane. He remained rooted to his spot and felt like the ground was going to

Eve took sluggish steps toward the door. She had been avoiding them for quite a long time and she knew that the sooner she faced them, the better for her sanity.She stood by the door for several seconds and tried to keep her breath in check. She didn't see who was banging on her door but she could bet that it was either Olivia or Jen.After exhaling twice, she opened the door and saw the ladies standing outside. She flashed a quick smile at them and before she could usher them into the house, they flew in.She slammed the door behind her and turned to face their inquisitive faces. They were both folding their arms across their chests and staring at her like an owl."And why the hell was your phone off for two days?" Olivia flung the question at her.Eve sighed and moved to the twin couch."Some ladies from your hate club had been blowing up my phone. I don't even know why I gave them my phone number in the first place." Jen lamented.She moved to the couch and settled next to Eve by

Eve was glad that she had spoken to her mother. She was feeling a bit relieved and was glad that her mother didn't judge or condemn her. Mrs Bloom was sensitive enough to realize that at that moment, Eve needed all the support and comfort she could get.*****"I'm so happy to see you!" Phil declared and almost pulled her to the floor because he had immersed her in a tight hug. Eve smiled and hugged him. If she had her way, she would have pulled him away because she woke up that morning feeling edgy. She attributed the sudden feeling to pregnancy hormones."I never thought you would show up today," Phil commented after they broke off the embrace. "You need rest Eve. You can count on me to handle things while you are recuperating. Remember, health is wealth." Eve gave a warm smile and folded her arms across her chest. Who would have thought that she could get along with Phil? Two weeks ago, they could barely stand each other."Thank you so much, Phil." She replied. She was going to mi

Eve shut her eyes and opened them immediately. Just when she thought that she was hallucinating, she realized that the doctor was still standing by her bed.He kept the file he was holding next to her on the bed and left after flashing a bright smile.Even grabbed the file with trembling hands and her gaze instantly fell on the result after she opened it. She shut the file after a gasp and quickly turned away.She was fucking pregnant!"Damn it!" She muttered under her breath and squeezed the bedsheet. Her head began to spin in circles. She was carrying Henry's baby. According to the report, the doctor handed it over to her, she was three weeks gone.Whether she was three weeks gone, a month or two months gone, it was certain as death that the baby she is carrying is Henry's.He was the only man she had been with and on countless occasions, they had been together without using protection even though there were times she took pills, there were a few times she skipped the pills.She th

The continuous ringing of Eve's phone caused her to open her heavy eyes.She picked up the call."Hey!""Hey, baby. How is my gorgeous damsel doing this morning?" came Darcy's voice.The statement didn't provoke a smile on her face and neither did her cheeks turn red. She was even shocked at her reaction."I'm doing great Darcy." She replied and rubbed her drowsy eyes with the edge of her left palm.Did she just say, Darcy? She cleared her throat loudly. "How are you doing babe?"The phone speaker filtered Darcy's chuckle. "I'm good. You are having a work-free day?"Eve arched a brow. "A work-free day? It's not weekend.""And you are still not at work?"Eve glanced at the wall clock hanging above her. Her eyes widened in horror."Jeez!" She screamed. It was a few minutes to 9 am and she should have been at the office by now."I need to go now." She said and quickly hung up before Darcy could give a reply.She went through her phone and realised that the alarm she had set to awaken he

"Come in!" Henry responded from the inside and shut the file before him.Immediately after he lifted his head and realised that it was Eve who just walked into his office clinging to some documents, he lowered his head and opened the file he had shut earlier.She walked up to his desk. "Phil said you needed the transaction details of the cost of production for the week." She said without staring at him directly.He continued fiddling with the pages of the document before him. "And why didn't Phil obtain the document from the accounts department? Wasn't he the one I assigned the task to?" he asked without lifting his head.From that statement, Eve could tell that Henry wasn't expecting her and on the other hand, she didn't want to be in his office but she had to bring the report because Phil had a couple of other things to do."He's busy. You asked him to plan the annual meeting with the branch managers and also draft invitation letters." She reminded Henry.Lately, he had stopped assi

Eve cast her gaze to the entrance. She saw a man by the door lifting a phone to his face. Could he be her mystery man? She wondered and lowered the phone to her chest.Meanwhile, the man also lowered the phone to his chest and kept roving his eyes around the area."Pick the damn call!" Eve muttered under her breath and began taking strides toward the glass door.The man finally picked up the call and when he turned around, she froze.He placed his perfect set of dentition on display by flashing a bright smile. "You must be Eve?"She nodded repeatedly.He began taking steps toward her, maintaining the illuminating smile. He was devilishly handsome and was dressed in a gas-blue suit. Eve looked into his forest green eyes and darted her gaze to his expensive shoes. Olivia was right. The man was damn classy.When he got to Eve, he extended his right hand and ran his left hand through his blonde hair. "I'm Darcy."She remained rooted to her spot. She wondered whether she should smile, spea
