I walked back downstairs and saw Amanda in the kitchen, She looks up at me immediately she heard my footsteps “Your sister is so beautiful " She says and I smile thoughtfully
“Thank you Mandy” I took a seat on the chair, I could tell she wasn’t using the same perfume anymore
“I’m really sorry Mandy, your perfume made me nauseous,” I say and she smiles at me
“It's fine, but why did it make you throw up so much?”She asked me and I start to cough, I obviously couldn’t tell her I am Mr obnoxious’s surrogate but she would know sooner or later. I drank the water she gave me and shrug
“It’s probably an allergy or something, "I say and she nods, "I thought as much,” She says absentmindedly
“Mandy, do you think I can get a glass of lemonade please "I say but thought about it again
“On a second note, I will like fruits, but not to worry I will do it myself “I walked towards the refrigerator and picked out a couple of fruits, washing and dicing i
SO WE ARE GOING TO BE HEARING FROM THE FAMOUS MR OBNOXIOUS IN THIS CHAPTERChris’s PovI heard someone call out my name faintly but I didn't know who it was, I sighed and walked out of my study, I have been trying to get the percentage overall for the new hospital I am planning on building in New Orleans*Aubrey doesn't call ms Chris, neither does Amanda and certainly not June, So it's either I was hallucinating or I am just tired, but it wouldn't hurt to check.I walked towards Aubrey’s room and knocked slightly but got no response*She is probably asleep* I thought to myself and attempted to leave, It wouldn't cost much to check tho, I opened the door slightly but couldn't see anything, I walked into her room and she wasn't laying in bed"Aubrey!" I called out to her with no response"Aubrey!" I say again and got no response, I sighed and attempted to leave as she may be in the kitchen, She has the appetite of 5 people, I turne
Aubrey's PovI couldn't believe what had happened, I know it's my fault and there are no two ways about it, it could only be my fault, I caused the entire thing and endangered the life of the baby, Mr obnoxious seemed weirdly calm about it and it made me wonder even more, Is it really okay? It was so unlike him since something like this happened, especially since it was my fault, I struggled to go to sleep.When I knew it was all my fault*I'm sorry chip, I would do more to take care of you, I promise * I said in my mind and slept offThe next day I woke up to see Mr obnoxious, sitting in the exact same spot he was and I remembered what had happened, I instinctively touched my tummy to see if the baby was still there, I didn't have a baby bump yet but it was only a matter of time before my tummy starts to protrude*Is it weird that I want to quickly * I sighed internally and glanced at Mr obnoxious who was awake, "We can go home today, Although you woul
I start to receive the drip with June laying down beside me and still talking about why I didn't take care of myself, Amanda comes in with a buffet of food and my mouth was hung open"Amanda, This is too much!" I exclaimed and she chuckled, settling it on my lap "Mr white demanded that it must be like this" She says and I raised my eyebrows"He actually demanded?" I asked and she nodded"He says you don't have to ask for food," She says and smiles at me * Did this man think I am a glutton?* I thought and glanced over at June who had her eyes popping out by the amount of food she was currently seeing.*We didn't use to eat so much and now it is a whole feast looking right back at us”Ready to eat up Ju?" I asked and she nodded, while Tiffany took a seat, I and June start to eat, June kept humming every time. After we were done Amanda came to clear up while June went to her room to bring her drugs. I asked Tiffany to use it for her and she lai
We arrived at the house and I got out of the car, walking towards the door, and pressed the doorbell, Amanda opened it after a few seconds and smiled immediately she saw it was me "Aubrey!” She exclaimed a little loud in my opinion and I raised my eyebrows, June sprinted out and hugged my waist tightly, I giggled as she did this"What's this Ju, You missed me that much uh,” I say and she nodded, not leaving my waist and I laughed and walked into the house"I was only gone for about 3hours Ju," I say when she wouldn't leave my soul, She looks at me with tears glistening in her eyes"What's wrong Ju?" I asked her and she shook her head”She has been a little down since morning but I thought it was because you weren't around," Amanda says and I crutch down on one knee and held June's chin "What's wrong?" I asked and she opened her mouth to talk but all that came out was gibberish and she starts to cry again, I stood up and held her ha
The rest of the day went by so quickly and June had woken up to eat, now it was night and we had all retired to bed. Mr obnoxious would not want anyone to wait up for him and he definitely would not appreciate it, so why? I thought about it but here I am, 12:00 am sitting and waiting for him, why am I doing this? I don’t know, I just feel like he needs a genuine friend even though I am his surrogate and I won’t be contacting him after I give birth, I sighed and heard some footsteps *He’s back* I stood up and peeked out my door, I could hear him walk back downstairs *Go downstairs Aubrey, just to check on him and drink water, yeah water* I tiptoed and walked downstairs carefully“What do you think you are doing?” He asked and I stood there, my body froze as I slowly turned to look at him“I-uh need water," I say and he looks at me with his eyebrow raised “Really!” He says and I laughed nervously“Of course, why else would I come down here in the middle of the night?” I say and he shru
I glanced over at the park, thinking about June, I looked back at the woman currently standing in front of me, "Nice to meet you, Goodbye" I attempted to leave but she holds me back”Now that isn't the way you talk to your mother that you haven't seen in 5years, Is it?" She holds back my arm and I glare at her"If you don't let go of me this minute, What exactly do you want mother?" I say and she smirks at me*I can't believe this woman actually birthed me*"I know I did wrong by leaving you and your sister but I am back now baby, I am here now so why are you being so difficult?" She says and I looked at her shocked"I am being so difficult? Well clearly you have lost your sense of thinking, I don't care if you are here or not, Let me go this very instant and Goodbye” I jerked my hand free from her grip and walked out of the store.*After 5years, five good years and she comes back like it makes no difference * I walke
A few moments had passed and were with June in my room, I heard a knock on my door and I stood up to check who it was, I gestured at June to wait and I opened the door to see Amanda "Mr white wants to see you in his study " She tells me and I roll my eyes”Why did you do that Aubrey?” She whispered and I shrugged, I probably am just tired of people walking all over me, I closed the door and went back to tell June I would be back, I walked out and tried to locate his study. I knocked and heard a come in, going in I saw him sitting as his green eyes bore into mine, he stands up as walks dangerously towards me*I am it going to lie, I felt intimidated with his large body was towering over mine and I gulped down the pile I had in my throat, his eyes still not leaving mine”What did you do that for downstairs?" He asked and I lost the ability to speak or even think straight with the close proximity between us"Do you think you are not a maid?&r
The rest of the day went by, June and Chris had become friends so fast that I couldn't even believe it, I'm sure you would be wondering why I am awake since it's midnight but the thing is I am hungry and no, I am not in the mood for some bland spaghetti or cereal, I want lasagne but everyone is asleep now, how am I supposed to get lasagne, I already ate dinner so what is this midnight craving. I groaned as I got off the bed, adjusting my pajamas properly as I peeped out my door, I couldn't obviously cook now so what am I going to do, I can't possibly ask Amanda up tonight to prepare lasagne for me that would be totally selfish and inconsiderate of me and I continue to do that. I sighed and walked downstairs, careful not to disturb anyone. I got to the kitchen and froze when I saw a tall figure "Mr obnoxious " I say out loud in my shocked state and he snapped his head towards me"Who is Mr obnoxious?" He asked me and I start to laugh nervously "Just someone I made up," I say a
Four Years AfterChris's Pov"Chris!" I heard Aubrey yell over the phone and I groaned internally, She was getting more cranky and demanding everyday, Now I am out trying to get chocolates and Icecream at Two in the midnight "Yes Babe!" I replied and heard her sigh over the phone "You're tired of me, aren't you?" She says sadly and I groaned internally "I can never be tired of you babe" I tell her"So you are getting my chocolate and Icecream?" She asks excitedly and I rolled my eyes "Yes, I am on my way back" I say and I heard her giggle, I cut the call and drove towards the house.Since Aubrey got pregnant, I've been going out of my mind trying keep up with her midnight cravings, Well Aubrey and I got married here in NewYork about two years ago in a simple manner, well Aubrey wanted it that way and U couldn't object to it!Having married her was and Is one of the best thing that has happened to me, also her getting pregnant, It still seemed
Aubrey's Pov1 Year After"Aubs, you need to calm down" Amanda says and I looked at her "Calm down! Calm down! We aren't even done with the decorations yet, how do you expect me to calm down?" I said and shut my eyes closed, I was really fustrated at this point that I didn't know what to do. My phone starts to ring and I picked it without checking the ID "What!!" I bellowed into the phone and heard a deep chuckle "You might want to rethink that help I offered" Chris says and I groaned internally "Fine, do your magic!" I say sarcastically and sat down looking at the mess that was made, Amanda was no where in sight after I yelled at her already but I mean, can you blame me ? My restaurant opening is tomorrow and I haven't even gotten half of anything done, Now I know you are surprised to hear Resturant and not a Coffee shop but I guess changes are part of life.I changed my mind from a Coffee shop and decided to open a restaurant, Amanda has been hired as the chef even though I was agai
Aubrey's PovI couldn't believe what I am about to do, Here I am with Chris half naked on the bed, he stands up and unbuttoned his shirt, I averted my gaze away from his toned chest, I heard him chuckle and his fingers touched my legs up to my thighs, The sensation I was feeling was indescribable, I felt his fingers grazed my inner thigh and I gasped, he slowly laid unto me as his lips found mine again, I slowly melted into the kiss and his hand grazed my feminine part even with the pantiesHis lips left mine and slowly and kissed my neck down the parting of my breasts, My breath hitched as I felt his breath linger on my nipple before his tongue circled my nipple, I felt my stomach flipped, I shut my eyes tighter as pleasure flowed through my body, I have never before felt this amount of pleasure, I shuddered at his touch (Not in a bad way, but in a good way) His lips left my nipple and kissed my tommy way down, I felt his lips down my abdomen and still going down, I f
About a week and a half has passed and I've seen Noah about twice, Chris calls me everyday to know how I am doing and even Emila has called me, June whines into the phone at every opportunity she gets about how much she misses me and wants me to come back home, I couldn't help but laugh at her silliness.I already visited my old home although it is now occupied by some other people, I got flashes of my childhood with my parents and how much they loved each other until it all went south! I saw Hannah once and she got teary eyed on seeing me, she kept apologizing to me She genuinely felt guilty about me leaving the town but I told her it wasn't because of her or her mom!Everyone kept complimenting me on how good I look that I almost started to believe it, Maybe I actually did look good, I can say my staying here did make me feel better about myself, I no longer felt paranoid about Isabelle or Nicole, I felt more peace and at ease just by being here and I totally loved it! I visited my f
The next day, Chris's call woke me up from bed and I smiled immediately I saw his name on my screen "Hello!" I say and heard some shuffling over the phone until he responded, we spoke for a couple of minutes and hung up the call.I got out of bed and had my bath , I wanted to visit my dad's grave today, after five years! I know it is long overdue but you can't blame me for that, I prepared myself mentally to face my dad, even though he wasn't alive I still felt his presence more constant here. I sighed and walked out of the hotel, trying to locate where I could get flowers, I saw a flower shop across and I went into get someI came back outside after I had gotten one and I stopped at Taxi to take me to the town cemetery, It felt like I was going to see my dad physically even though he was dead but then again, I could feel his presence more around here"We are here ma'am " The taxi driver says to me and I looked up to see we had gotten there, I searched through m
I asked June yesterday in the presence of everyone and I mean everyone If she wanted to go with me or stay here with Grams and Gramps but guess what, she wanted to stay here'Haha!' I was hopinh she would stay back because I needed this to myself alone, Does that make me selfish? I don't think so! Today is the day I am leaving to Vermie! I wanted to go back home and see my dad's grave again! I just wanted to get away from all that i have been facing! For once in myife simce my mom left us, I would be going somewhere without June and I wanted too, of course I know June would be in safe hands and I don't have to worry about anything here!"Aubrey!" I heard Chris call out to me and I turned to look at him "Yeah, Chris!" I replied and he walked closer to me, enclosing me into a bear hug, I sighed as I got comfortable in his arms "I will miss you Aubrey!" He says and I chuckle "It's just two weeks, Greenie" I say and he chuckled and kissed my forehead, I tilted my head upwa
A few days have passed since the Isabelle incident and Chris and I are doing better, Well mostly Chris! I could hardly sleep because of the trauma! I keep imagining things everywhere and it hasn't been easy to keep this to myself, We were both getting discharged today and I'm glad I can finally leave the hospitalI need some peace and quiet, without the world noise constantly getting to me Nor the stress I always have to put up with, I needed to get away from NY at any cost, Although I knew Chris wouldn't allow it but I have to find myself, I feel like with all the Chaos that had happened I need to find and regain myself, I didn't usually sleep with my eyes open but now that is like the normal way for me!Isabelle has striken awake a part of me that I never thought existed and that was the fear part, I hated feeling so weak and vulnerable but I can't help it if that's how i felt, Constantly watching over my back so I don't get shot or stabbed, I didn't
Aubrey's PovThe time seemed to stop as I looked back and forth at Chris and Isabelle who were both laying on the floor with blood surrounding them! I couldn't think straight as I clutched Chris's shirt tightly, Some nurses and doctor came over immediately and took him on a stretcher, My mind could focus on anything, I couldn't think about anythingChris just got shot because of me! He got shot with a bullet that was meant for me! I rushed out with the strecher that Chris was laying on as tears streamed down my face "Please help him" I cried hysterically "Doctor White has just been shot, Get the operating room ready please " I heard someone say as we approached a room "Aubrey, you can't come in" I heard the familiar doctor say and I looked at him "B-but, he is.." I stuttered, still crying and he holds me by my shoulder "He will be fine Aubrey, Really he will be fine" He says and I watched as he walked into the room Chris was wheeled in, I stood out there pacing a
Aubrey's PovIt felt like I was in those action movies where they throw a knife and you catch it but No, this is real life and a knife is being thrown at me! I ducked my head and looked at the knife that was currently stucked into the curtainMy heart beat went up from 50 to 200, I just had a knife thrown at me, my palms were sweating as hell right now as i shakily looked at Isabelle who was smiling at me "Aww, Such a shame! Shall we play this game again?" She says and i shook my head profusely"Isabelle, please! I would leave your lives, please!!" I pleaded with her and glanced at the door, hoping and praying someone would come in"You shouldn't look there, no one would come here to save you, everyone is busy with that fire incident! So no saviour for you" She says and pulls out a gun, where from? I don't know!"Did you think I brought only the knife! Haha, you really cannot be that stupid right" She says and I looked at her shoc
