The Billionaire's Pregnant Wife Chapter 284
Hailey's head snapped to Kendrick and their gazes met again. However, contrary to her astonishment, Kendrick only had a frown on his face. Baby girl? Was the woman referring to Sharon? Hailey could remember her using some endearments for the girl.If that was the case, why did she suddenly come looking for Sharon this early? Did she realize something was wrong?Hailey didn't know why her heart had started beating wildly again. And she couldn't describe this foreboding feeling that slowly built up in her heart. "Mum." Kendrick's thoughts must have been in sync with hers because after the small frown, his expression returned to a calm one. And Hailey was afraid. She was afraid that Kendrick's Mum had already sensed something. "I know you haven't eaten, have some breakfast." The breakfast was already spread on the table and Kendrick attempted to serve her. And Hailey resumed walking forward to help him serve the food. "It's a good thing you know I haven't eaten, Ken." The woman's v

It would be horrible to witness Kendrick having a fight with any of his parents because of her. This wasn't how things were supposed to be.So she took to her heels despite his mother's words and headed upstairs. But the woman was faster than Hailey and she instantly caught up with her. "Didn't you hear what I say?" She grabbed Hailey's hand and held her in a tight grip. "You are coming with me today, there's no way I'm going to let you continue tainting my son's life.""I said she's not going anywhere." Kendrick was also by their side and he pried Hailey off her grip. "Mum..." He seemed to be struggling again to keep his temper in check. "Let's go home. You're acting like this because you don't know the whole story.""Tell me if the whole story matters!" His mother pushed him away. "My baby girl is laying at home hanging between life and death all because of this woman." She glared so hard at Hailey that she was grateful for once that looks couldn't kill. "Since she came into this

He was supposed to go on a business trip, would he be able to make it? Would his trip be delayed? She spent more time inside the bedroom and as she did that, those words kept replaying in her head. Kendrick's Mum was not only mad at him, she also mentioned some things about regret and his grandmother. What did her words mean? Was it the same grandmother Kendrick told her about? Hailey let out a sigh and held her head with both hands. Maybe she shouldn't linger in this room. She should go downstairs and get some fresh air. She shouldn't dwell on these thoughts, it would do her no good. Therefore, she got up from the couch and strolled out of the bedroom. She'd come up here to hide from Kendrick's mother. And the woman had certainly left long ago. She would have come after her if she hadn't. As Hailey went down the stairs, her hand went to her stomach which was grumbling. Right, she hadn't even eaten yet. She had almost forgotten about that. She had lost her appetite and didn't

Unlike earlier, his expression was now unreadable. He was neither smiling nor frowning. And she couldn't understand the look in those eyes. And Hailey opened her mouth even though she didn't know what to say. She didn't know what to ask him. And she wanted to know what had transpired at his parents' place. And as she struggled to form a word, her body instantly went stiff as Kendrick cupped her cheeks with both palms. And finally, his eyes flashed with emotion. "Are you alright?" Was the first thing that left his mouth. His eyes were filled with worry and his tone was softer than usual. Hailey was once again speechless. Why was he asking her if she was alright? Was it because of the words his mother uttered? "Hailey, she didn't mean all she said. Don't let those words affect you."His words confirmed Hailey's thoughts and her eyes watered immediately. Was Kendrick comforting her? "Of course, I'm alright." She sniffed back her tears and quickly shook her head. "I also know that

He didn't need to be told that she was sad. It was all written on her expression and it reflected in her eyes. What was wrong? Didn't she want him to go anymore? A few hours back, she had been ecstatic to send him off. However now, it seemed as if the mere idea of him leaving scared her to the core. "I have to go," he said softly. And he couldn't call back the trip now. He could if it was yesterday."O–Of course." Hailey nodded. "Go ahead, Kendrick. Time is– Time is going." She didn't even force a smile this time. Maybe she couldn't. Did his mother's visit affect her this much? She looked as if she wanted to tell him not to go. Yet, she seemed to be forcing herself to urge him on. Then a thought came to his mind. Was she afraid that his mother would come back? "Hailey, if I don't allow it, no one is going to take you away," he reassured her. "I've made sure no one will." And he had given the bodyguards instructions apart from speaking again with his parents. No one was going to

Even though it had been two days since Kendrick left, they had only gotten to speak on the phone once. That awkward conversation. Hailey's cheeks flushed at the remembrance of that, remembering what she did before he left. Maybe it was by instinct or she had thought he was making the first move. Well, she didn't know if she should be embarrassed or not. She had felt his shock and his happiness after that and she'd run upstairs to ponder upon her actions. And she'd dreaded their conversation on the phone before it happened. Would Kendrick taunt her? Would he bring that up? Would he make fun of how she had literally pulled him down and kissed him hard? However, he didn't do any of that. He'd spoken to her normally. And his tone had changed a bit. He sounded a lot happier. Hailey had been the only one that had felt awkward during that phone call. Anyways, the call didn't last for five minutes. He seemed to be busy. And before bidding her goodbye and hanging up, he'd given her some w

"That is great." The Butler widened his smile. "Remember, Madam. You're supposed to come back by—""Yes, Collins, I get it." Hailey cut him off and took another look at her wristwatch. She was supposed to return early. Hailey was already aware of that. "Good." The Butler gave a nervous laugh. "And don't forget, Madam." He wasn't done speaking yet. "Remember, no work tomorrow." Hailey wanted to groan but held it back. Kendrick must have asked the Butler to keep an eye on her. Maybe he didn't fully believe her when she promised that she would only go to work once in a while and also return very early. She gave the Butler a weak nod before bidding him goodbye. When she left the house, Rick was already waiting in the parking lot with the car's door held open. They soon set off to the diner and Hailey relaxed back on the car's seat while keeping her eyes closed. And her thoughts wandered again. Kendrick hadn't called her since yesterday. Would he call her today? And could she keep w

This was hard to believe. Hailey shook her head. Kara couldn't possibly copy her special recipe in such a short time. Hailey had never shared it with anyone. She always had a way to make her pastries taste different. Only she knew the right measurements of the ingredients she used. This cake— it tasted exactly like the ones she made. Hailey's hunger was instantly replaced by curiosity. She carefully rose to her feet with the cupcake still in her hand while the other hand was on her waist. She usually focused on meals and didn't actually bake that much in the diner. Kara took care of that aspect. And if Hailey could recall correctly, the last time she was here, she hadn't baked anything. And even if she did, the cakes wouldn't have survived to this day. How was this possible?"I'm listening, Hailey. Tell me how you were able to convince your husband."Kara's sudden entrance interrupted Hailey's thoughts. Hailey's mind wasn't on Kara's question. Her mind was still on the cupcake.

Sharelene stood in a corner, watching everything unfold. The family was in a frenzy. She could only see fear in their eyes and hear the fright in their voices.As the staff wheeled Hailey out of the emergency room, a deafening silence fell upon the hallway. And Ken...He hadn't been himself since they came here. He hadn't been himself since a few days back when he learned Hailey was kidnapped. Neither would he speak to anyone, nor listen to those that tried to talk reason into him and advise him to take it rationally. Since a few days back, he was the complete opposite of the man she had met many years ago and had a second chance of getting close to again. The man that would always keep calm no matter the circumstances...He was nowhere to be found. Ken was completely different from that man she knew. In her mind, she'd almost gotten what she wanted... Or more specifically, what her family wanted. But now, staring down at the ring on her finger, it was as if the engagement neve
The Billionaire's Pregnant Wife Epilogue
```````And every day, Kendrick lived in guilt. For the next several months, every minute of his life was consumed by guilt. It took him weeks to gain her mother's favor, and even months to regain her grandfather's. He would come back every day, hoping that her eyes would at least flutter. Her bump kept increasing at an alarming rate. His every day was filled with fear and trepidation. And one day, her eyes did flutter. He was supposed to feel joy, but not at a chance that more trouble loomed ahead. Her pregnancy was due and not a week after that, the babies arrived. His real fear resurfaced at that moment. The fear that they would never be able to hold their bundles of joy together. The fear that he would never get the chance to tell her that he loved her. However, she proved the doctors wrong, chasing away his fears. Now, staring down at the babies, her utmost gifts to him, Kendrick had never felt so much contented in his life. He'd never been able to wipe off his smile sin

***Kendrick paced in front of the Emergency Room. His heart was in his stomach and his hand never left his hair. It was as if she'd been inside there for hours now despite being wheeled in just now.No amount of self-reassurance could calm him. No one attempted to offer him reassuring words even. They've all been in the same dilemma.Her mother wouldn't stop crying and he couldn't find the heart to offer her those words he'd yearned so much to hear. Hadn't it all been his fault? Hailey was pregnant. How was that possible? When they arrived here, it was the first thing the nurses said after taking her vitals. But Kendrick still found it hard to digest.And the fact that the child would definitely turn out to be his only made him more confused. It made him angrier with himself. "Ken, what is going on here?" Rushed footsteps sounded in the hallway and he glanced sideways to find his parents as well as Sharelene. "What are you doing in this place? Is someone wounded?" Asked his f

~~~'Hailey.'Kendrick's hands trembled and his grip on the gun threatened to loosen. Staring up at the balcony where she was being held captive, he fought not to let the rage take over. The rage that became multifold the moment he sighted them dragging her here. Her body was limped. She looked worse than how she'd looked in the video. And an almost similar-looking lady, whose face was cascaded with tears, was being held at gunpoint beside her. Was that her mother? "Don't worry, Mr. Reid." Standing with them were the three shareholders. "She isn't dead yet. But she'll soon be, if you don't follow our commands."Mr. Weimar and the rest. Kendrick's assumption hadn't been wrong. They had a hand in this. "Already, you've broken one of our rules," scoffed one of them. "We thought we told you to come alone. Coming here with your friend is like seeking more trouble. Will Mr. Carter be competent enough to fend for himself?""Shit! Buddy, these stupid old fools are underestimating me," De

***"Hailey, listen to me!" Rob grabbed her shoulders, forcing her to look up. "This is important, you have to take it."Nothing was more important to Hailey right now than getting away from him. Not only did she fear these drugs he had brought her, but she also feared the way his demeanor had changed ever since he returned with them.Of course, even if Rob was really trying to save her, there was no way she was going to cooperate with him.Yesterday, he'd secretly taken her blood, waking her up. And he returned this morning, looking agitated and somehow angry at her. "Hailey!" Rob's hold became tighter. "You must take these drugs immediately. I can't get you out here if you don't. Please, Hailey." He softened his voice. "Just take the damned drugs, you'll feel better. We both will feel better.""What exactly is wrong with you?" Her mother's voice faded in the background. "Leave her alone, she doesn't want to take them. Please I'm begging you, don't torment her any further."While he

Maniac.Hailey lifted her hand weakly to send a slap across his face, but her hand went limp and fell mid-way."M–Murderer." She pushed his chest. "Just go, leave me alone.""Hailey." Footsteps approached the room and Rob said frantically, "Please hold on." He touched her forehead. "You're sick. I'll get someone to treat you. I'll get you out, I promise."Then he sprang to his feet and left, closing the door behind him. Hailey was left wondering how such lunatics could be left wandering among normal people. She sniffed and waddled back into her mother's embrace. How blind had she been to associate with these kinds of people in the past?And how could she put a stop to these endless noises and intense headaches? She didn't want to remember? She didn't want to recall whatever they had shared in the past. ***'Ken, you have to save me. These strange men have captured me and they won't release me until you come. If you don't come alone, Ken, they're going to kill me and my Mum.'Kendric

...The hours dragged on, and from the tiny cracks in the wall, it seemed night had come. Still in her mother's embrace, Hailey shut her eyes to keep up with that pain.Both hands were wrapped around her stomach and she'd shiver now and then. As much as she'd like sleep to overtake her, it didn't. The exhaustion weighing her down didn't let her achieve that. The exhaustion caused by the aches all over her body. Her head pounded constantly, the voices also became louder each time she was left to her thoughts. Those hallucinations were neverending, and very soon she was afraid that they'd burst out, damaging more parts of her brain.The darkness slowly disappeared and the creaking sound of the door made her aware that morning had come. Another day of torture and pain."Hey, wake up!"Before cold water or anything worse could be splashed on her, Hailey leaned away from her mother's embrace who was also awake."Take your food!" The man burly man threw a food box and a water bottle at them

***"Ken, you have to save me. These strange men have captured me and they won't release me until you come. If you don't come alone, Ken, they're going to kill me and my Mum. They have laid traps for you, Ken—"Hailey was cut shut by a hard slap across her face. Bound to a chair with ropes, cold water was splashed on her face. She licked the side of her lips, tasting the metallic liquid; the only thing that kept her from fainting."Damnit! Woman. I told you to leave the trap part out! Are you deaf or what!?" The man holding a camera in front of her shouted. "Now, let's take another video. You will say everything you were asked to.""Stop wasting your time, Man," the portly man said and walked forward. "I don't think this lady is willing to cooperate.""I told you she's a stubborn one," Chloe scoffed from a corner."Now listen to me, Young lady." The portly man approached her and lifted her chin. "If you keep acting this way, we can't fulfill our promise to you. Give us your cooperation

***"Buddy, this is serious. How could she just disappear into thin air? Is there a chance that they're hidden somewhere in this city?"This city? Probably not. Kendrick had turned the whole city upside down. He'd deployed every force he could think of. They'd searched everywhere; every warehouse, every dilapidated building. There was no sign of them. It had been three days and there wasn't any traces of them. He'd driven to the cemetery that day, hoping more than anything that she hadn't spent the night there. And his prayers turned out to work. Only that, what actually happened was worse than spending a night in the cemetery. The sight of her phone by the cemetery gates was all he needed to know that something bad had happened. She was abducted. And there was still no traces of the suspects. Her sister and that guy. "Damnit! This is all screwed up." Devon paced for a while before sitting on the couch. "You didn't tell me you've taken her back. You never should have allowed her
