2: She's pregnant, not invalid
Last Updated:
2020-09-25 22:52:25Someone was taking money from the Forrest Company. It has to be a shareholder, otherwise, how did they get so much information on the company?
A light tod on my desk made me snap my head up. Tanya, the lady that works with me at my store was looking at me with a raised brow. She's like a second manager here after me. I won't really call her my assistant but she does a great job when I'm not around.
"Earth to Jaycee" she took the seat opposite me, placed a bottle of punch in front of me and I muttered a thanks.
"How are you doing Tan?" I asked the brunette. She nodded.
"The baby?"
"Fine"...she rubbed her tummy aggressively and I wanted to laugh. Tanya Is five months pregnant but still does a great job around here.
"We got a call from CO Pets and stores. They got more animals for us" she said. Her eyes were dim lighted meaning she hasn't had much sleep in a while. Am I a bad person for letting her work with her condition?
"Hmm..when are they delivering?" I asked. My eyes still focused on her.
"Probably Monday" she said and then gave a light yawn. That's it!.
"Tan I think you should take a break"
Her eyes lit up for a while but it all watered down. "Who would help you around here?"
"I'll be just fine. Besides Betty is doing great" Betty is a worker here too. By the way, there isn't much to do besides making sure Co and Let delivers well and on time.
"No. I'll stay. I need this job" she got up to walk out.
"I'm not firing you. Just giving you a break"
The door to my office flung open and Chloe busted in. She had on this hairy coat giving the feel of Taylor Swift.
"We'll talk later" I said to Tanya and she nodded before walking out.
"Haven't you heard of knocking?" I asked Chloe the moment her butt touched the seat.
"Haven't you heard of locking doors?"
It's an office, not my inner bedroom.
I rolled my eyes at her and she chuckled. She was preparing for her leave to Paris for her fashion show. I'm not sure I'll be there and I have a feeling that's what she came to talk about. I crossed my arm on the table.
"I'm traveling tomorrow for the show on Saturday" Chloe announced. Her booted feet flew to my desk and I sighed. That's more like Chloe. Wearing furs and leather pants wasn't all for her.
"Well, safe trip" I shrug, expecting a reaction from her and I was sure to get one, cause her mouth hung opened.
"No way your saying that shit" she sat upright snapping her fingers at me.
"Your coming to the show Saturday night""Chloe..."
"Don't butter me up" she blocked both ears with her fingers like a child and I wanted to laugh. God! She's twenty five.
"Look, I'm not sure I'll have enough time" I folded my arms while Chloe snorted.
"Let the bumpy lady run things for a while" Chloe shrugged and I chuckled.
"She's pregnant Chloe and no. I can't stress her"
Chloe shook her head at me before getting up. She rounded the table and sat in front of me.
"She's pregnant not invalid" with that, she hit the button on my desk for calling Tanya into my office.
"Chloe!" I gasped. She really wasn't doing this.
"Stop acting sweet and calm" Chloe scolded while I rolled my eyes. How did I know her again?..oh yeah. We've been friends since college. Tanya came into my office with a disturbed look on her face. A pang of guilt shot through me. Chloe....your dead.
"Mrs Forrest has something to tell you" Chloe said to Tanya who was now rubbing her tummy, much more aggressive than before.
"What's that?"
"Go on Jay" Chloe urged. I gave her the middle finger and she chuckled.
"Um...I'll be going to Paris for a couple of days. I need you to handle things around here, would you?" I made sure I talked gently and calmly as ever.
"Of course. Do what you have to do" Tanya said with a little smile plastered on her face. I tapped her hand as she left the office for the second time today.
"That wasn't bad" Chloe said and I shot her a glare. "What?"
"I can't even book tickets till Sunday" I groaned out loud.
"Who said anything about ticket" Chloe smirked and I shook my head vigorously. I knew what she was aiming at.
"No"
"Yes"
"No!" I half yelled
"Jay. He's your husband. Who needs a ticket when he can fly you there in his private jet. Be a wife!" She said the last part like a scold and I wanted to nag her eyes out. She doesn't understand. Damien is going through a lot right now. I know using his private jet won't be a problem but still, I don't want to add up any stress.
"He's busy"
"Same crap evey day" Chloe snorted. She sat down for the thousandth time since she came here today.
"Someone is stealing shares from him" I announced and Chloes head snapped to me.
"Really?"
Good. Now she sees my point.
"Yeah"
"Doesn't affect his jet" she shrugged and I groaned out loud. She wasn't listening. "If you can't talk to him. I will"
No! In hell. NEVER!
"No. I'll talk to him" I finally said and she air fisted making me chortle. Child. More like a married child.
"Good. Now talk to that nigga and get your ass in Paris by weekend. If possible, drag him along"
What!
"Chloe...."
"Blah blah..." with that she was out the door. I sighed to myself. Pain in the ass. More like head. Her talks are traumatizing. Now all I have to do is talk to Damien and hope he agrees to lend me his jet to Paris or come with me.

Damien POVJoseph stalked into my office carrying much more files than I could ever bear. I think my head is going to explode with all these load of work and there's Jaycee asking me to go to Paris with her. I didn't want to, cause of the work I have on ground but damn. Those tears. I've always been a softie for tears. Normally, I dislike women who cry but with Jaycee it was different. It touched something in me. I don't even know why. It's not like I'm in love with her. She's just my wife. "Got what you asked" Joseph dropped the papers to my desk some even faltered to the floor."I didn't ask for all these papers, I asked for a direct reason to why my company shares are reducing"Joseph crossed his arms staring at me. His blue eyes were fixed and I know he was thinking."Let's get this straight Damien, you don't expect whoever is stealing from you to leave written e

Jaycee POVIf I wasn't thinking twice about going to Paris, I am now. We were in Damien's jet going to Paris. He's been on his phone for what seems like hours and we haven't said a word to each other. Is he still mad about last night.? I didn't even do anything wrong. "Damien"I wrapped my arms round his bicep making him turn to him. "You're over working yourself again" I smiled."I have to. Going to Paris has already bulged into my schedule" he said. He ran his hands through his hair and I reached up to smoother it so it looked neat. Guilt washed over me like sour rain. I never should've asked him to come with me in the first place. I know how busy he is."None of this is your fault Jay. I chose to come" his hands stroke my chin and I snuggled close to him. Still my fault he's here and wasting his time. Damien put his phone down and wrapped his arm around me and I'm than

I spent half of my day stuffing ice cream into my mouth feeling like a coward for not confronting Damien about the messages. I scooped another spoonful of banana flavour stuffing into my mouth. I relaxed a little letting the ice melt on my tongue. My phone chimed and I groaned picking it up. Damien's name flashed on the screen and I wanted to puke.Should I pick? Of course I'll pick. Not picking is acting like a stupid teenager that don't know what her boyfriend is up to. Maybe the woman is just one of his co workers. But why did the text seem so intimate? I tapped on the green button aggressively."Jay. Are you already at Chloe's?" He seemed to be walking...i hope cause his breathing was a bit raspy."No. I can't go" I blurt. There was silence before he finally spoke."Why? Are you sick?"I scoffed. If only he knew. I crossed my leg under the blanket. I just can't admit the

Chloe was to come over for dinner and I couldn't wait to see her. Damien hasn't gone out since we came back from the hospital. I know he has lots of work to do. Instead, he just sits on the bed massaging my ankle or making phone calls. I'm not even six months pregnant.I looked at the paper on my drawer. When the doctor gave me that, I thought he'd flip. Not that he hates children but, he once said kids would be fine but later on."Aren't you supposed to be at a meeting or something? " I asked him. he kept his phone by his bedside and landed on the bed sighing. "What's wrong?""They found the account stealing from my company."I smiled. That's a good thing. Really great. Now he can take a break from exhausting himself too much."That's great Damien" I lay on top of him wrapping my arms round him in a hug. His hands encircled my waist holding me so close to him like he didn't want to let go.I raised my head and looked at him. His eyes were fixed on me and dull. What now?"Damien?""Are

I grabbed my car keys from my bed side with the attempt of driving far away from here, but thought about it. Damien would just track my car and find me. And I don't want to be followed. I need some alone time and most especially, I need to have a long talk with my dad.I sipped my hot chocolate first before storming out of the suite. Maybe I heard Damien call me but I was already in the elevator hitting the button like a mad person. The door finally closed and I noticed an older woman staring at me. She was holding her son in her hand which made me rub my tummy. This is insane. Everything is. I didn't notice tears streaming down my face and the lady tapped me."You ok miss?" She asked.For a moment I wanted to tell her my whole life story right from the point where I made that short walk to the alter and said ' I do ' to becoming Damien's wife. I sobbed louder nodding my head at the lady. She just smiled unconvinced but didn't push it.The elevator doors finally opened and I rushed out

I cleaned my greasy stained hands on my blue maxi dress leaving an odd stain. Now I don't only look like an outcast, I look like a four years old. Thank heavens for the free chicken stand in the park for kids. I trotted toward a warmer region of the park with less people and sat down on the grassy ground. The sky had turned grey."Rain. Why?" I sighed to myself. I laid against the grass staring up at the sky. Why am I even here? Oh yeah. I needed space and that's why I'm seating lonely on the ground of this cold park. The sky rumbled and parents started leading their children away. In all the commotion and movements, I sat still on the grass staring right ahead of me. My dad couldn't be the culprit. I won't believe it until I've asked him myself. I really need to be a doubting thomas right now because I can't just face the fact that my dad was...using me? Urgh!!

I hold Jay's hand in mine for all the times she was being checked by the doctor. I'm never leaving her side. Her eyes are a bit dull and little as she's still trying to adapt to the brightness of the room and her environment. She's been out for close to four months."How may fingers do you see?" The doctor waves his hand in front of her."Five" she shrugs."Good" Dr Jenkins said before pointing to me. "who's this man?" He asks and my heart beat escalate. Of course she called my name but what if she doesn't know who I am to her."My husband" came her sudden reply and my eyes twinkle. Judy is holding on to Alex, her eyes observing everything that's going on. "Wait... where's..." She touched her flat tummy. "My babies"Here comes the hard part.

She's still not up and I'm still waiting, I'll will keep waiting.I would've stayed at the hospital with Jay throughout the months but I had to be with Alex. Standing in the C-S room that day, my heart couldn't contain the joy I felt when I held Alex in my arms. He was my little miracle, I and Jay's miracle. A little bundle of joy. The tiny thing easily crept into my heart, stealing it. Somehow, he had more of Jay's features on him and it had me contented for the time being.Mrs Roberto walks into the room with a smile on her face.

I don't even have to ask where Bethany is detained because I can hear her loud screams to be released."Get me out of here now or you will pay for this!.... Do you know who I am?"I finally catch a glimpse of her and she doesn't have that glittery look anymore. Her eyes are black from her makeup and her hair is ruffled up."Damien!" She squeaks when she sees me. I turn to Joseph who is by my side. "Call Elle and tell her to go be with Jay in the hospital, I've got a meeting here" I tell him and he nods before walking off a good distance.Bethany has her hands clenching the iron bars."I'm so glad you came for me Damien!

I've spent two weeks in the hospital straight, not agreeing to leave Jay's side. Last night, Elle persuaded me to go home because she'll stay. She said I need to get my shit together.She's right. I look like hell. Last week, we moved Jay back to Miami in my private jet. Her parents have been saying here at the house with me.

She has this really daunting look on her face.“You don't even know what's good for him or what he wants?” She sighs and then her eyes trail down to my tummy. “I'm even sure he doesn't want that child you're carrying”I blink thrice. “You don't know anything. We're happy we're having a baby, too bad that may never happen to you, with all the plastics on you” I snort, and she narrow her eyes at me. I can tell she's angry and it's the best thing I've ever seen. I need to push her to say something. Anything.“Damien never wanted a child.” She states and I'm at alarm ready to hear whatever nonsense she's about to spill. “And yes... I was pregnant once, Jay. And with Damien's child” She smirks at the last part and I feel my mouth go dry, my heart is beating. Damien has a child with Beth? What's going on and why am I just hearing this. Bethany

I'm up in a second, when I feel hot breath next to my face. It wasn't the ray of sun, like other mornings, but the fact that Damien was kissing my neck softly. I spring to my side, careful not to lie on my tummy. My hands cup his scruffy jaw which he so dearly need to shave, but I'm too much of a bitch to tell him because it makes him look sinfully hot."Good morning" I smile. He responded with a guttural sound. His lips not leaving my neck. He sucked and bit at he sensitive flesh there. My hands run through his hair.He kisses me softly moving his lips against mine like he has all the time in the world. When he licks my bottom lip with his tongue, I don't let him in at first, wanting to tease him. But Damien becomes impatient, groaning into my mouth and squeezing my hip so I give him what he ask for and a moan escape my lips, at the first touch as his tongue touches mine.I wrap my hand round his neck and reposition, so I don't hav

Little confettis spring to the air and land to the floor, the moment I open the door. Chloe was holding a balloon, a cherry smile on her face, and it's just six pm in the evening. I grab her arm pulling her into the house. I don't see Charles and Ray anywhere."What are you doing here so early?" I ask her."You told us we could come over for the party""Yeah I did. Tomorrow" I look behind her. "We're the rest?""Charles is trying to park the car. This place is full of trees and barely a free plot" Chloe said. She drops her bag on the couch, taking a seat. Her eyes set on my large tummy. "When are you due?""A week or so. But the doctor said it could happen anytime now" I shrug. I just admit that the thought of going into labour is a bit scary. I'm going to be a mom and Damien? he's going to be a dad."So you're going to give birth here?" She asks. Plates clanking in the
