The Billionaire's Strained Wife Chapter 21:What if you got pregnant?
She rolled her eyes and walked toward their car. As she's infront of the backseat, her phone buzzed. A message from Sandro. Sandro: How’s the trip so far. She hesitated before typing back. Hezekiah: It’s going well. Just had dinner with the investors. Exhausted. Sandro: Aw Atleast it's done for today. I miss you, babe. Her heart clenched. Hezekiah: Yes, I miss you too. Another message came through. Sandro: By the way, how’s Darius’s girlfriend? Did you two get along? Her fingers froze over the screen. Her stomach twisted. She had lied to him, told him Darius’s girlfriend was coming along to keep him from worrying. But now he was asking details she couldn’t give. She forced herself to type back. Hezekiah: Yeah, she seems nice. We haven’t talked much, though. Her chest felt tight as she hit send. She hated lying to him. “You know, you’re really bad at lying." Her head snapped up. Darius was leaning against her car, smirking as he watched her. “What?” she asked, forcing h

Hezekiah sat at her desk, staring blankly at the computer screen in front of her. The usual hum of the office felt distant, muted by the thoughts racing through her mind. How was she supposed to tell Sandro? Would he be upset? Would he understand?She exhaled sharply and reached for her phone, hesitating before finally typing out a message.Hezekiah: Hey babe. I have to go on a work trip. Leaving tomorrow morning for Boston. Three days.She hovered over the send button, her stomach twisting, before finally pressing it. Within seconds, her phone buzzed.Sandro: Wait… what?Sandro: This is sudden. Since when?Sandro: Why didn’t you tell me sooner?She squeezed her eyes shut, knowing this wasn’t going to be easy. She typed quickly.Hezekiah: Just found out today. Darius told me last minute. I don’t have a choice. Sandro: Only the two of you? I'm not thinking something else but still....It makes her think, what should she say to him? She needs to find a better excuse or solution.Hezekiah

As Sandro opened the car door for Hezekiah, she hesitated for a moment, a strange feeling washing over her. It felt like someone was watching them.“Babe, you okay?” Sandro asked, noticing her pause.She forced a smile. “Yeah… just tired.”Just as Sandro was about to get in the driver’s seat, a voice interrupted them.“Well, well. Didn’t expect to see you two here.”Hezekiah stiffened. That voice. She knew it too well.Sandro turned to see a man standing a few feet away, dressed sharply, hands tucked into his pockets, his dark eyes assessing them.Sandro frowned slightly. “Hey… do we know each other?”Darius’s expression didn’t change. If anything, a faint smirk tugged at the corner of his lips. “No. But I know her.” Sandro glanced at Hezekiah, confused. “Babe?”Hezekiah swallowed hard, forcing herself to keep calm. “This is Darius… my boss.”Sandro raised his eyebrows. “Oh, right. The one you always complain about?” he teased lightly, trying to ease the tension.Darius chuckled, but

A woman—probably in her mid-thirties—hurried over, relief evident on her face. “Sweetheart, you can’t just run off like that.”“Sorry, Mommy,” Arielle said, standing up and dusting the sand off her dress. She turned to Hezekiah. “This is my mommy.”The woman looked at Hezekiah with a warm yet apologetic smile. “I hope she wasn’t bothering you.”“Not at all,” Hezekiah assured her. “She’s very sweet.”The woman ruffled Arielle’s hair. “She has a habit of talking to strangers if she thinks they’re sad.”Arielle nodded enthusiastically. “Mommy, she’s like a princess who needs saving!” The woman laughed before turning back to Hezekiah. “I don’t know what’s on your mind, but I hope things get better for you.”Hezekiah was taken aback by the woman’s kindness. She nodded with a grateful smile. “Thank you.” As Arielle and her mother walked away, Hezekiah sat there for a few more minutes, watching the waves roll in and out. Maybe Arielle was right. Maybe she did need saving.But she couldn’t wa

Hezekiah’s eyes snapped open to the shrill sound of her phone ringing. She quickly grabbed it, still feeling disoriented, and saw the caller ID — her boss. Darius. Her heart skipped a beat as she checked the time. It was already past 9:00 a.m., and she should have been at work an hour ago.She quickly answered the call. "Good morning, Sir Darius," she said, trying to mask her disorientation."Hezekiah, where are you?" Darius's voice was sharp. "You're late, and there's a mountain of work waiting for you.""I apologize, sir," she replied, her mind racing. "I'll be there as soon as possible."Darius didn’t ease up. "Faster, Hezekiah. Don’t waste any more time." The line went dead.Hezekiah sighed, rubbing her temples. She had overslept after spending the night at Sandro's condo.She sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose. How could she have overslept like this? She needed to get it together.As she pushed herself out of the bed, she noticed the emptiness around her. Sandro was nowhere i

Hezekiah tried to shake off her unease as she drove to Sandro’s condo. His message earlier, saying he had cooked dinner for them, had caught her off guard. She hesitated at first but eventually agreed, knowing she couldn’t avoid him forever.As she parked her car and made her way up to his unit, the weight of guilt pressed harder against her chest. She couldn’t stop thinking about the night she’d spent with Darius. It haunted her—the way she’d betrayed the man who loved her so deeply.When she entered the condo, the smell of freshly cooked pasta greeted her. Sandro was bustling around the kitchen, setting the table with a content smile on his face."There you are," he said warmly, looking up as she entered. "Perfect timing. Dinner’s almost ready."Hezekiah forced a smile. "Smells amazing, Babe. You didn’t have to go through all this trouble.""It’s no trouble," he replied, waving her off. "You’ve had a tough week, and I wanted to do something special for you."Her heart ached at his w

Hezekiah let out a deep sigh of relief as the clock struck five. The day had been exhausting, and her body ached from the weight of her emotional and mental turmoil. She quickly gathered her things, her mind already on the brief moment of solace she’d find at home before meeting Sandro at six.Just as she was about to step out, her phone buzzed with a message from Darius.Darius: Come to my office before you leave.Her heart sank. She glanced toward his office, its transparent glass revealing him sitting at his desk, his head buried in his hands. He looked tense, stressed even, and for a moment, she considered ignoring the message. But she knew better—there was no escaping Darius when he wanted something.As she approached the office, she felt a flicker of hesitation. He hadn’t turned on the privacy mode; the glass walls were still clear, the curtains wide open. She could see him running a hand through his hair, his sharp features etched with frustration.Why does he have to call me n

Hezekiah walked into the office the next morning, her heart heavy and her mind clouded with guilt. She was wearing sunglasses, trying to hide the exhaustion in her eyes and the turmoil within. It was difficult to face the day after everything that happened with Darius, but she had no choice. Work was calling, and she had to push through. As she made her way to the coffee machine, her coworkers eyed her curiously. They noticed the shift in her demeanor—the usual cheer and energy she brought to the office was gone. Instead, she was distant, quiet, and seemed almost... defeated. One of her colleagues, Sarah, who was always the first to notice anything out of the ordinary, leaned over the counter as Hezekiah prepared the coffee. "Hey, are you okay?" Sarah asked, her voice soft. "You don’t look like yourself today." Hezekiah forced a smile, though it didn’t reach her eyes. "Yeah, just a little tired. I watched this intense true story documentary last night about the lost children in the

After eating and washing the dishes Hezekiah sat on the couch, her hands trembling slightly as she stared at the floor, deep in thought. Eva sat beside her, concern written all over her face. She had just returned from her trip to Madrid and was now fully immersed in her best friend's turmoil. Eva studied Hezekiah for a moment, her brow furrowing. "Hezekiah... I have to ask... Did you and Darius...?" She trailed off, not sure how to phrase the question without sounding too blunt. Hezekiah's heart skipped a beat. The question Eva was about to ask felt like a sharp blade, slicing through the uncertainty that had been eating at her for days. Her voice came out in a barely audible whisper. "No, we didn’t use protection." Eva's jaw dropped. "What? Are you serious?" she asked, her voice rising in shock. "Hezekiah, you didn’t—" "I didn’t think... I didn’t even consider it," Hezekiah confessed, the guilt pressing down on her chest. "We... we did it multiple times. I wasn’t thinking."

"What is this? Why did you lock us in your room? What are you doing?" Hezekiah wondered and seriously looked at him."This is what you like, right? I know you have feelings for me so you sabotaged my relationship with Liana didn't you?" He walks approaches her and smirks."No! What are you talking about? I will never do that," she denied any involvement in ruining their relationship. "Are you denying it?" he asked in misbelief."You're mistaken, sir. I haven't done a thing, and I must emphasize, I don't have any feelings for you." She felt the cold wall against her back, realizing she had no escape. Kiah was cornered by her boss."You're a liar! Are you that desperate to ruin our relationship? You're so pathetic!"He yelled, and the intensity of his despise was evident in his eyes."What? am I pathetic? I will never ruin your relationship! You're the one who wrecked my life. After you make love with me you leave me behind hanging." She didn't care if anyone overheard them. She was done...
