Thorns of the Heart Chapter 63
Madison's POV I stood there, looking at his body. I was trying to control my thoughts; I couldn’t get my eyes off him; his lips were pink and succulent; his body was inviting; and I wished he would come touch me so I could get the memory of our last time together off my mind.My thoughts were spiraling out of control, and I knew I needed to stop them before they went too far. I was at a crossroads—either I could give in to my desires or I could fight them. I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down.“What are you thinking about?” His voice low. “Nothing.”I lied, feeling my cheeks heat up. He raised an eyebrow, clearly not believing me. He took a step toward me. “You can tell me.”I looked at him, my heart pounding in my chest. I knew what I wanted to say, but I didn’t know if I could bring myself to say it. I opened my mouth, but no words came out.“I’m listening.”His voice was gentle. I took a deep breath, gathering my courage. “I…I…” I stammered, my voice faltering. He

Madison’s POVThe atmosphere was getting quite tense; he brought his lips closer and touched them with mine. I just couldn’t allow myself to do this.“Tyler, I need to go. It’s getting late. I have a board meeting at my dad’s company tomorrow, so the earlier I leave, the better for me. I saw how hard it was for Tyler to let me go.”Driving home was a bit hard for me. I had so much in my heart; my heart felt so heavy with burdens in it that it could make me develop a heart attack. I thought of what might happen at the board meeting tomorrow; having to deal with my uncle is a hard one.When I got to the meeting, I was there for a few seconds, but thank God they were all seated there, and the time was well spent. I just immediately went down to the meeting with the managers.“The rate at which we keep losing our investors is quite alarming. Just two days ago, we lost one of our biggest investors. Our exchange rates have gone down drastically. It seems like we are going down the drain, an

Madison’s POV.After being discharged from the hospital, I needed time to be myself, to think straight, and to gather myself up before going to tell Tyler about the news, not minding if he might be happy or not. But deep down, I felt like he was going to be happy about it, but I couldn’t just conclude or jump into assumptions like that.When I went to see him, I didn’t know how to start telling him about this. I insisted that he sit on the bed. It was still hard for me to say. Tyler obviously knew something was wrong with me.“Madison, what is wrong with you?” he asked.“I… I… I stammered like I was stuttering and kept quiet for a second. He raised his eyebrows one-sidedly, knowing fully well that something was wrong with me and that I didn’t want to let it out.“What is wrong with you, Madison?” Tyler, it is just so hard for me to say… I am pregnant; that is it. I am pregnant. I just found out a few days ago. I thought about getting rid of it, but I felt like it wouldn’t be fair if I

Madison’s POV.I could hear a beeping sound in my head as he said his words gradually: “Seeing all of you present here for our family dinner gives me joy; some of us here are not related by blood, but business has made us family. I most certainly say it’s a wonderful thing, and I pray we continue to work together for the best.” Everyone clapped their hands loudly.“And above all, I have wonderful news to tell everyone of us seated here.” I played drum rolls right in my head as his mom had a smile on her cheek.She thought he was about to bring out the ring from his pocket because he had dropped his wine glass on the table and stuck his hand in his pocket when he said that. His mom must have thought he was going to embarrass me by calling Brenda up and telling me to go and sit down. Such a level of inhumanity.He continued by saying, “I think I am the happiest man on earth right now. I know most are asking why. Why is Tyler so happy? I will tell you; I think you all deserve to hear it.

Madison’s POV.She began to cry. I had to lean her head on my shoulder and gently pat her on the back with comforting words.“Ma’am I understand how you feel right now. Every woman on earth deserves to hear the cry of a baby and to carry them in their arms. I believe that you will have yours someday and you will remember all that I said to you on this day. I know it really stinks that you can’t have a child and your husband would. I believe you found hope in yourself. I know all of these are hard for you to handle but crying won’t make it any easier for you, ma’am. “ My words gave her comfort as she wiped her tears and left. While I was comforting the woman, I saw how Brenda twisted her eyes and bit her right lips.She was looking at Tyler, but he paid no attention to her; he was busy with the people who were giving him pleasantries.“I wish you safe delivery. Maddy, I saw the worry in her eyes. I had to tell her the story of my mother. I told her about how my mother waited for six y

Madison’s POV.“Okay, I’m going to ask you some questions about your pregnancy,” she said. “Are you having any pain?” I shook my head, even though she couldn’t see me. “No, I’m not having any pain,” I said. “And how’s your morning sickness?" she asked, her voice full of concern. “I haven’t had any morning sickness,” I said, feeling a little relieved. “Okay, that’s good,” she said, sounding relieved as well. “How about your energy level?” she asked, moving on to the next question.“My energy level is pretty normal,” I said, trying to be honest. “I’m not feeling overly tired or anything like that.” “And how about your appetite?” she asked, continuing with the questions. “My appetite is normal too,” I said, feeling a bit like I was being interrogated. “Well, based on the information you’ve given me, I don’t think there’s any reason to worry about the baby’s kicking,” she said, her voice reassuring. “But if anything changes or you start having any pain, please call us right away.“Thank

Madison's POV The trip lasted longer than I l expected and it was almost as if we wouldn’t arrive home. The car was calm at this moment, Tyler was focused on the road and I rested on my back and enjoyed the breeze. Indeed, motherhood brings joy. Tyler turned on the radio and the song was familiar and comforting, and it felt like a perfect way to end the day. The sun was setting, casting a warm glow on the horizon. As we sang along, I felt my mind uplifted; I was having a feeling of contentment. “This is perfect,” I said, my voice full of happiness. “It really is,” Tyler said, his eyes never leaving the road. “I’m so glad we’re doing this together.” “Me too,” I said, leaning my head against the window. And in that moment, I knew that no matter what happened, we would be okay. We finally got home and I got out of the car. I stretched my leg for a little over one minute because it felt stiff. As I stretched, I felt a sense of relief. I had been sitting for so long that my muscles w
