MAYA “Congratulations ma'am, you're pregnant.” I stared at the doctor, half expecting he'd burst into laughter and tell me it was a joke. But he had a smile on as he congratulated me. No, this can't be. The timing. The situation. Everything was wrong. I can't be pregnant now. My divorce is going to be finalized in a few days. And now, I have a baby. “I'm sorry to ask this, but is there a possibility that this is a misdiagnosis? The doctor stared at me I'm just telling you this, based on your symptoms. It's very likely that you're pregnant. But it'd be best if we wait for the rest results, you can fetch the results at the reception. The realization dawned on me. I was truly pregnant. I followed the doctor's instructions and collected the test results from the reception. I realized I was truly pregnant I sunk into a chair at the reception. I don't know whether to tell Alexander about the pregnancy or not. What if he thinks I'm trying to get out of the divorce? He could barely tolerate me as it is. But I have to tell him. I can't raise a child all by myself. I just clocked eighteen a few months ago. I'm barely an adult, how will I cater for a whole human being all by myself? I'll have to tell Alexander about the pregnancy, I'll face the consequences later Even if he hates me, he can't hate his child. I recognized some of them as Alex's bodyguards. I made to walk past them into the ward when one of them stepped in front of me. “What are you doing? I want to go inside.” I said, eyebrows raised. “I'm sorry, ma'am, but we were asked not to let you in if you come around.” He said in an unfriendly voice. “I just want to talk to my husband. I won't be there long.” I said a small crack in my voice. “We can't let you in.” The stoic man deadpanned. I took a few breaths to calm myself down. “Okay, no problem. I'll stay back. Can you call Alex for me? I want to talk to him.” He turned and went inside the ward. He walked out of the ward after a few minutes, his expression more stern than when he walked in. I wondered what Alex must have threatened him with. “He asked you to leave.” “But I just need to talk to him for a few min–” “Please leave, ma'am. I swallowed hard, my heart tightening in my chest. I nodded slightly and walked away. I should just go home. It's no big deal if he doesn't want to see me. He doesn't have to know about the child. If I hadn't told Alex today, I would never have had the chance to tell him about the pregnancy. He hasn't answered any of my phone calls . There is no other way I can reach him. I decided to wait in the hospital lobby till he came downstairs. It started to rain and the temperature dropped drastically. Not long after the rain stopped, I saw Alex descending the stairs, surrounded by his bodyguards. I jolted up from my seat and rushed to him but was stopped by his bodyguards. “I need to talk to you.” I half yelled. I was about ten meters away from him. Alex didn't slow his pace to listen to me, he continued walking towards that exit. Determined to get him to hear me out, I walked after them. “Alex, please you have to listen to me. It's very important. Please.” I was on the verge of tears. Alex didn't spare me a glance as he stepped into his car. . I fell on my butt. The car drove off, splashing mud water on me. I just got home,I pulled out my suitcase. Grandma Loretta had already purchased the ticket. I was leaving for London tomorrow. But I failed miserably. I couldn't stop wondering how I was going to raise a baby alone. I pulled out my phone and went through my contact list and all of my social media accounts. Maybe I can find someone willing to help. But I couldn't. I felt a little dizzy and decided to take a nap.. I set the alarm and sank into bed. A loud knock on the door jolted me from my sleep. The knocking on the door persisted and I grudgingly got out of bed. I opened the door to see a super pissed Alex standing in front of me, stomping his feet in pure rage.

You should have been done""I'm not feeling too good" I managed to say, keeping my gaze low. That wasn't a lie. I wasn't feeling good but I couldn't bring myself to tell him the full truth.Alex let out a scoff, his arms crossed. "Sick huh? Is that another excuse to drag your feet so you can stay?" He shook his head. Alex let out a scoff and crossed his arms. "Sick huh? You're always lazing around, barely lifting a finger and you want me to believe you're sick?" He seethed with rage. "You're leaving this afternoon whether you want to or not. I'll drive you to the airport myself and see to your departure."

Chapter 5Maya I bit my lower lip as I pondered on Alex's question. I contemplated hanging up due to his harsh tone but I decided against it. I needed the money. “I called because I haven't been receiving any living expenses since I got here.” I was slightly ashamed as soon as the words left my mouth, but there's nothing else I can do. I heard Alex chuckle from the other end. “Of course, you called to ask for money,” he drawled " Can you not be a burden for Once? You should have gotten the memo by now. No more allowance for you because you don't deserve it."I swallowed past the lump in my throat. I was about to reply him when he said, “And don't you ever call me for something like this ever again. I have important things to do, a company to run.” He ended to call before I could say anything else.I stared at the phone confused, but not surprised. It seemed like life has a way of making me feel as though I was not meant to be in this world.It was still a shock that his love ch

Chapter 6Maya's POV"As the ambulance rushed me to the hospital, fear gripped me due to the professionals' serious faces and the pain piercing my belly and lower abdomen. In the delivery ward, a nurse urged me to push, assuring me I could do it, despite my worries and weakening body, bathed in sweat and pain. Finally, after one last push, I felt a strange release, and my body collapsed onto the bed, relieved to hear the cry of my newborn.“You're going to be alright. You shout "take a look at your pretty baby,” the nurse explained, her eyes fixed on me with a small smile on her lips.“Finally, a family I can call my own,” I muttered as my eyes closed on their own. I woke up feeling really tired, my body ached, and I was going it wasn't as I expected it to be. My body shivered, and I was scared.

That was when I remembered that Grandma Loretta was throwing a launch party in the ballroom. It was filled with people of high status.I dragged my gaze around to see many unfamiliar faces pour into the hallways. “Oh my God, someone fell down the stairs.” I heard someone say. “She is losing consciousness.”“Somebody call 911.” My legs finally decided to function and I rushed down the stairs to a groaning Lisa. “Oh my, Lisa, are you okay?” I asked.Her groans of pain only grew louder. "Was she trying to kill her sister?" "I guess so. Her sister is pregnant for the king's family, but she is not." “How pathetic! "Soon enough, all the people there started pointing accusing fingers at me.“No, I swear, I didn't push her. She tripped. I didn't… believe me…please.” I pleaded in a petrified tone. No

My husband just said he doesn't want me anymore. “I can't take this anymore, grandma.” Alex continued in a high-pitched voice. “Don't make such a joke, Alexander King. You are not divorcing Maya” I heard Grandma Loretta say with finality in her voice. “You can't make me stay with her. You forced me to marry her by threatening my position in the company, and I did what you asked. You can't force me to stay with her.” Alex argued. “You can't divorce her. There is too much at stake here.” Grandma Loretta said. “Really? Are you worried about that? Aren't you bothered by what she just did? She killed Lisa's unborn child, Grandma. That's Caden's only child and our family's heir. I'm not going to stay married to a murderer.” “Don't call her that!” “Why? Because you know it's true. You've always supported her every single time.
