All Chapters of Running Away with the Billionaire's Baby: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

"Congratulations, Miss Adriel Summers! You're pregnant. 3 weeks pregnant, to be exact," the doctor said with a bright smile on her face. Adriel's mouth went agape, and she wasn't able to come up with any words. She just sat there, shocked, her hands shaking from nervousness. "Is this your first baby?" the doctor asked. "Ye—yes," Adriel managed to squeeze out despite her racing mind. "Ooh, this is so exciting. I'm so happy for you!" Despite the doctor's excited voice, Adriel couldn't help but bite her lips in anxiousness. Pregnant? How could she be pregnant when she literally hasn't slept with anyone aside from— Her eyes widened in recognition when she finally realized who could it be. She held onto her aching head and leaned back on her seat. "Zeth?" she whispered under her breath. "Are you okay, Miss Adriel? Do you feel anything unusual?" the doctor asked with concern. Adriel shook her head. "No, it's okay. I'm fine," she said, although she wasn't fine. For a mom

The two sat in awkward silence as they took a sip from their teas. It has been three weeks since they last saw each other, and up until now, Kayden still doesn't know the reason for Adriel's departure. Kayden looked at the woman sitting right in front of him and couldn't help but frown. Although her beauty can't be denied, he cannot help but notice how distressed she looked at the moment. Her skin and lips were paler, her hair wasn't styled like usual, and there was just a sad glint in her eyes. With that, Kayden couldn't help but ask. “Are you alright, Adriel?" Adriel was surprised to hear the sudden question. She placed a fake smile on her face and nodded her head. "Yeah, I'm okay," she said, although she was far from okay. "It's been quite a while since we saw each other, huh?" he said. "Yeah," Adriel looked down on her lap. "I had to leave earlier because of...something," she trailed off. Kayden curiously looked at her. "Would you mind explaining what that "something" is?" Ad

4 years later "Are you really sure, Adriel?" Daphne asked as she hauled Adriel's last bag onto the rented car. Adriel chuckled as she closed the trunk. "How many times are you going to ask me that?" she asked, humor evident in her voice. "I've already paid the deposit for my new place." "But still," she pouted. "Why can't you just stay here with us?" "You know I can't do that, Daph," she said, gesturing to her bulging stomach. It has been four years since Adriel gave birth to her baby, and they've been staying at Daphne and Ian's place ever since. However, now that Daphne announced that she is pregnant with her first child, she decided to rent her own home. She was hesitant at first, but her resolve strengthened when she thought of Zenon's future. She knew that she couldn't continue living with her friends now that Zenon was growing up. "But, I'm going to miss my baby Zenon," Daphne pouted. "We'll make sure to visit often, Daph. And besides, you're going to have your own li

The two of them sat face to face, none of them daring to utter the first word. Adriel tried to compose herself as much as possible, but she felt like she was dying deep inside. Underneath the table, she picked on her nails—a habit she developed whenever she felt anxious. Adriel couldn't help but internally grimace when she remembered the occurrence that happened just moments ago. She called Mr. Gray, her new boss, by his first name. But other than the embarrassment that she was currently feeling, another feeling triumphed over—confusion or maybe even shock. She had a lot of questions in her mind. What is he doing here? How did he become the CEO of this company when he was a former farmer? Not that she was looking down on farmers, but it was near impossible for someone to rise up from being a farmer to being an owner of a company. Zeth scowled as he observed the woman sitting right in front of him. When she first came into the room, he wondered if he had lost his mind. Has drowni

“See you later, baby," Adriel placed a kiss on Zenon's chubby cheeks. "Will aunt Daphne come pick me up later?" he asked with wide eyes. Adriel apologetically nodded her head. "Yeah. Mommy needs to work until the afternoon, so stay with aunt Daphne for a while, okay? Mommy's sorry." Zenon shook his head. "Mommy doesn't have to be sorry. I like playing with aunt Daphne!" Adriel smiled in relief. "That's great, then. Don't give your aunt such a hard time, okay?" "Mmmh! I always help in cleaning the house, mommy." Adriel ruffled his hair and once again kissed his cheeks. "That's my boy. If I finish earlier, I'll fetch you so we can play in the park, okay?" Zenon's eyes brightened when he heard of the park. He doesn't have many opportunities to play outdoors because Adriel is quite busy working during the day. So, a rare occurrence like this is such a happy moment for him. "Your class is about to start, so let's go now, hmm?" Zenon enthusiastically nodded his head and entered
