Hailey nodded. "I only want to get my clothes," she replied.The place sank into silence. Hailey stared at the fresh plants in the garden. They were tempting and she had the desire to cook them. Her hands itched to prepare something. Did she even know how to cook?"Rob, can I cook them?" She looked at him and asked."I don't see why not." Rob shrugged his shoulders. "They're yours after all. Besides," Rob added. "Everyone loves your food, Hailey. You are a great cook.""Everyone?" Hailey blinked. Were there more people she wasn't aware of?"Rob." She asked again. "Do we have relatives? Do I have friends?""Of course, we have relatives and friends." Rob laughed. "You have a best friend, Hailey, and you always love to visit her at the diner."Her best friend. Diner. Something clicked in Hailey's memory. A best friend and a diner. So many staff in one kitchen. Customers and dishes. "Kara." The name left Hailey's lips before she could recall it properly. "Her name— her name is Kara,

Suddenly, Hailey found herself in a different kitchen, a more spacious one. Rob's figure was turning into someone else's. He was becoming taller and the color of his shirt had changed. And Hailey was also dressed in something different. She looked down at the huge counter in front of her, and instead of a chopping board and vegetables, she was staring down at brownish goodies in a cup. Cupcakes. "Hailey?" Rob's voice snapped Hailey to reality.The image instantly disappeared and she was back in the present."Ouch." Hailey winced. A stabbing pain pricked at her finger and she stared down to see her fingers bleeding. "Are you alright?" Rob reached her side in a flash. "What were you thinking about, Hailey?" He said softly. "You have to pay attention while you work."Hailey stared at her bleeding fingers and slowly nodded. She looked up at Rob and wondered where that image had come from. Rob didn't tell her that her illness could cause hallucinations."Let's get your hand treated,

Hailey lifted her head and looked around the house. Rob said they'd been married for more than a year. Had they been living here since then? These many questions in Hailey's head made her confused. She felt helpless.She was supposed to lay back and recuperate, but these questions were too many that they kept popping up in her mind. Hailey stood up and decided to go upstairs. Since she opened her eyes, she could recall only staying in Rob's room. She hadn't had the chance to go anywhere else except for the garden and kitchen. Rob said that she had her own room. Maybe she should go have a look. Hailey walked up the stairs, her hand tracing the edge of the railing. She walked past the master bedroom which belonged to Rob and she headed down the small hallway.There were three more doors. And she opened the first one. What came to Hailey's view was a room with bookshelves, a working desk with a computer lying on it, and a couch that sat in a corner. She trudged inside the room a

Chloe looked up at Hailey and smiled brightly. Hailey smiled back and nodded. "That's unfair." Rob pulled Hailey into his arms, making Chloe drop her hands in the process. "Are you taking your sister's side now, Wifey?""Of course, why wouldn't she?" Chloe grumbled. "If she doesn't take my side, should she take yours instead?""Yeah, because I'm her husband.""And I'm her only sister."While the two bantered and led her downstairs, Hailey was quiet. She wasn't listening to what they were saying. Her mind was on something else.The word 'Wifey' It had strangely stuck to her mind. Someone had called her that before. That deep voice calling her wifey didn't belong to Rob. Was she hallucinating again? "Sister, remember how on your wedding day with Rob none of your friends decided to show up?" Chloe said as they ate in the dining room. Hailey's attention came back to the present. She couldn't remember of course. Why didn't her friends show up at her wedding?"And I volunteered to ac

"Sister." Chloe spread her arm across Hailey's shoulder and murmured. "Now that I will be staying here with you guys, whatever question you have don't hesitate to ask me, okay?""Uh." Hailey nodded. "I can see that you ask Rob a lot of questions. Don't you think he must be tired from answering the same questions again and again?" "About that..." Hailey trailed off and nodded. Rob didn't complain but she also felt that he must be tired of answering the same questions all the time."Thank you, Chloe." She gave Chloe a grateful smile. "It's nothing, Sis," Chloe answered. "I'm always glad to help you out. When you were still healthy, you took great care of me. You even insisted on working because I asked for small money which you feared asking Rob. Then you met with a bad boss who turned your life into hell. I'm so much indebted to you, Sis. I can do anything to make you happy.""Huh?" Hailey opened her mouth and closed it. So that was why she decided to work. Because Chloe had asked

"That should do, Love," Rob answered. Hailey couldn't make out his expression, but she was sure that he was smiling at the moment. The dizziness increased and she longed to lie down."Let me settle you in a comfortable position." Rob's voice floated from a distance. He stood up and tucked her into the bed. Hailey fluttered her eyes still fighting the sleep.The door opened and she could hear her sister's voice. She couldn't make out what Chloe was saying to Rob. Rob covered her with the blanket and as Hailey's eyelids closed, Chloe's voice increased in the background and they both left the room. Even in her sleep, Hailey could hear their indistinct voices from a distance. They seemed to be arguing. Or maybe they were arguing. Otherwise, she was only dreaming about two people arguing. In her dream, the male voice was deep and demanding, and the female voice was loud. She was crying. Hearing her cries made Hailey's heart ache. The lady seemed to be begging the man. She didn't kno

It had been long, in fact, almost a year since he smoked. It surprised him that it'd become an addiction in such a short time. He walked back to the window and stared down at the city below. It was bustling. Everywhere screamed with liveliness. It was as if he was in a different world. A world secluded by the nest of gloom and heavy rains.Maybe he deserved this torture. He deserved it for choosing her over his own blood and flesh. His parents were enraged. His mother was sick. And the shareholders were waiting for him to make a mistake. The door to his office opened. No knocks. This was the way she had barged in that day. And Kendrick's eyes snapped to the door. But the person that made his way in. It was only Devon. "Buddy— Argh! My eyes." Devon put on a pained expression and covered his eyes. And Kendrick ignored him and returned his eyes to the city below. "If you give me that glare one more time, Buddy. You're going to lose a precious friend." Devon sauntered forward. "

"Whoa!" Devon exclaimed and put both hands up in a peaceful gesture. "Don't misread my words, Buddy. I didn't mean to rub salt into injury. All I want is Rosslyn. I've dived into many oceans of love, but none tasted as sweet as hers. Please save your dear buddy's heart from running after temptations. I'm very serious about Rosslyn."Kendrick tossed the broken pen into the trash and picked up a new one. "Rosslyn holds the power to make her own decisions." He picked up the document and it also ended up in the trash. "Stop bothering me. I have important things to do.""Are you sending me off?" Devon faked a surprised look. "I can stay all day accompanying you, you know.""No need.""But come on," Devon whined. "No one even knows where you live nowadays. I heard some employees gossiping that you sleep in the company. Is that true?""None of your business.""But you could fall sick. If you spend all day and night in the company, you'll be tempted to work without taking a break."If only K

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
