Besides, Kendrick must have gone to work. She didn't want to see his face. When she left her room and got down the stairs, the servants avoided her like plague. Each kept a distance from her, giving her those weird looks. And the one that served her food as she arrived at the dining table, scuttled away immediately she was done. Hailey sighed and ate her food silently. What did she care whatever they thought of her? They might as well gang up and confront her. Still eating her food, she lifted her head to see the Butler walking in her direction. "Good morning, Madam. I hope you had a splendid night," he stood by her side and said, a smile creasing his slightly wrinkled face. Hailey blinked before she swallowed the food in her mouth. "Y–Yes... I slept well." She nodded hesitantly. Wasn't he the one that kept helping Kendrick bang on her door last night? And if the servants hated her, the Butler was like her number one enemy. What was he up to? "Good!" The Butler beamed. "Master w

"Madam, thank goodness." He reached her side and flicked off the sweats on his forehead. "I searched for you everywhere. I thought— I thought..." He let the remaining words trail off as if thinking it didn't matter anymore. Well, she already knew what he was thinking. Come on, even if she had superpowers, how could she possibly escape from this huge mansion in such a short time. "The doctor is here, please follow me," The Butler said and started leading the way out of the garden. Hailey followed behind him, and when they entered the house, the two guards left her back and went to stand at the door. In the living room, an elderly lady was seated on one of the couches. She stood up and extended her hand as Hailey approached her. After exchanging pleasantries, the woman gestured her to sit beside her. "Please call me Bella. Although it's been decades since I provide service to the family, you can still consider me as relative," She said with a gentle smile. "Oh." Hailey nodded. "I s

Hailey's hand stroked the screen as she gazed into the picture. She smiled at the memories, then laughed at her two pigtails. But her face fell and her eyes burned with tears at the reality she was now in. "Argh!" She tossed her phone beside her and threw off the bedsheets. What kind of bad luck was this? People that grew up loyal to their only loves were the most fortunate in relationships. Why was her case the total opposite? Still glooming about her unfortunate fate, Hailey did not know when the door opened until she sensed a figure standing beside her. Her head lifted up and her eyes were met with Kendrick's who was staring down at her with a deep-seated frown. When did he return? Damnit! She had even forgotten to lock the door. "What is bothering you?" Kendrick askedHailey pursed her lips and gave him a hard glare. "What are you doing in my room?" She demanded sternly. Kendrick let out a small laugh, his gaze wandering around the room. "Good thing you know it is your room."

Kendrick frowned, his face was barely an inch from hers. He instantly released her and she let out a breath she hadn't known she was holding. "What is it?" Kendrick said in annoyance as he glanced sideways at the maid who had appeared from the door. The maid seemed shocked at their position. Her cheeks tinged red and she lowered her head quickly. "It– It's Master— guests— y–you have guests," she stammered while her legs shifted on the ground. Kendrick's frown deepened and he asked, "Who?"While Hailey used the opportunity to push him away. She sat up straight and busied herself with smoothening the creases on her nightgown. Whatever was the maid's reply, she didn't catch it as she was so engrossed in getting away from Kendrick. "They're here for you," Kendrick said when the maid left. And Hailey who was still shaken to the core barely had time to react. "W–Who?" She stuttered with a hand on her chest to calm her erratic heartbeat. "Your parents," Kendrick said simply before stan

"An allergy...?" Her stepmother trailed off. "I thought she tried to—" her father seemed unable to complete his words. And his eyes turned to Chloe who ducked her head as if trying to hide her presence. "But her sister was a witness. Even Hailey—" "Hailey was not aware I'm allergic to onions... Does that count as a sin?" The Butler coughed from behind and Hailey could sense the other servants' movement. Even Chloe had lifted her head and given him a shocked look, her expression matching her parents'Hailey was frozen stilled and she only came back to her senses when Kendrick chuckled and wrapped an arm around her shoulders. He drew her close until her body collided to his side, his eyes fixed straight at the couple. "Hailey is my wife," he said flatly. "It is a wasted assumption to think she would try to poison me. Now, I will appreciate if this rumor dies here tonight." He rose to his feet and faced the servants. "Because, anyone that attempts tainting her reputation, is as well

The next morning, while Hailey was taking a walk to the garden, her phone rang and she glanced down at it to find out it was her sister. Luckily, the two guards didn't follow her. They had instantly backed off the moment she gave them a glare. Even the maids, their sudden change in attitude had left her in disbelief. Apart from waiting obediently for her to finish her breakfast, they had lingered and bombarded her with like a thousand questions about what she would like next. Even the Butler had buttered her up all morning, and hovered around her like a ghost. Another stroke of luck, Kendrick was nowhere to be seen. He must have left for work very early. His face was the last thing she would like to see on this peaceful morning. After speaking with her grandfather, some of her spirits had returned. "Sister." Came Chloe's voice after she answered the phone. "About last night... I hope you're alright," she said in a soft tone. Hailey sighed. She didn't want to be reminded of last n

"What nonsense is this?" Kendrick gritted out. Hailey could hear Rob's voice calling her name and her heart started pounding. "G–Give me back my phone," she demanded, but Kendrick raised the phone out of her reach and brutally cut it off. "You don't have any right to do that!" Hailey screamed, her anger on par with the storm in his eyes. "Oh, really?" Kendrick taunted and shoved the phone inside his pants pocket before grabbing her wrist. "Let me go." Hailey panicked. But he didn't let her go and scooped her into his arms when she started struggling. "You're out of your mind, Kendrick. If you don't put me down, I'll scream." Hailey beat at his chest as he walked straight into the house. "Kendrick—" "Shut up," Kendrick muttered under his breath while striding up the stairs. When he reached her room, he pushed the door open with his leg and dropped her on the bed. Hailey sat up and met his glare as he towered above her. "I thought I have made myself clear enough that you're no

*****Inside a penthouse that overlooked a construction site, Kendrick sat on a sofa, his eyes fixed on the glass windows. Amidst the loud rave of engines and the laughter and chatters of the men at work, his head was only filled with thoughts. Thoughts of whatever was she doing at the moment.The Butler had reassured him on the phone that she took her meals. However, heaven knew what she was up to. It had been three days, three days since she threw that fit. After that, she hadn't said a word to him, nor had he got a glimpse of her. Silence... Was all that she gave him.Even when he knocked at her door every morning, or at night when he went back home, her only response was no response at all. It didn't settle with him, living her all day by herself. She had threatened him with the baby's life. Well, technically it wasn't really that much of a threat but she was trying so hard to provoke him. He wondered what else she would do. Why couldn't she quit being stubborn and cooperate?H

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
