All Chapters of Carrying the Billionaire's Baby: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

My breakfast made a great start to my day. There were expresso waffles with a mocha drizzle and freshly baked croissants that were buttery and airy that melted in my mouth. I knew that after that breakfast I'd never go back to plain cereal again. After savoring the last bite, I took my plate and silverware over to one of the kitchen staff members. The staff took care of cleaning the dining ware right away and also cleaned the table where I had accidentally left some crumbs.Then I made my way to my room and got ready for the day. I had something in mind compared to yesterday. No way was I going to be in the mansion two days in a row. Besides, Dax had said it was okay to go out with a chauffeur.I made my way towards the bathroom and changed into a beautiful designer dress I found in the closet. The dress was strapless with a ruffled-silk cocktail style that was a few inches above my knees. It was far more revealing than I normally wore, but it was too pretty to not wear.After put

Every eye in the store was on Dax as he placed his hands on my shoulders to steady me. Women all around the store were whispering as they turned to look at him in interest.It was embarrassing that he had to see my tear-streaked face. I didn't want him to see me looking such a mess. I could only imagine how terrible I looked with my makeup utterly ruined.His face held concern for me, and he confidently walked up to a sales staff. The staff member looked utterly stunned to see Dax in the store. She was so caught off guard that she almost bumped into a rack of clothes.He stood up tall and said, "I am just out of a very important business meeting and had to see what this store was like for myself."The worker asked, "Is there anything you're looking for sir?"Other people in the store must've sensed his power from the way he spoke and carried himself. They continued to watch his every move.Dax ended up telling the worker, "No, there isn't anything I'm looking for. Thank you for a

After my talk with Wendy, I still worried about Dax. There was a chance he could lose the company to his younger brother. That made sense but was unfortunate to think about.From what I could tell, Dax was a great CEO. He was always so hard working and made sure to do work even while he was home. I knew he had the office in the mansion to complete additional work even off duty.Why had she decided to tell me this news? It just made me want to have the baby faster, so his job would be secure. The rest of the day passed by quickly, and it had gotten quite late. I checked the clock and it was already around 11:00. It was best to sleep and not have any further thoughts of worry clouding my head.It was hard to fall asleep, so I got out of bed. I put on my robe before quietly making my way downstairs. I doubted anyone else would be up still but felt better having something to cover myself up with.I was shocked to find Dax sitting at the table when I made it to the kitchen. He was in

When I woke up, I noticed that Dax was gone. I was kind of disappointed that he had left my side. Even his scent hadn't stayed in the bed to bring me comfort. I had expected to see him to stay with me. Maybe I should've enjoyed his company more while I had the chance. I figured Dax wouldn't have left me until he knew I was all better. He probably had his reasons, but it was so sudden.After checking the clock, I had noticed that many hours had gone by. At least I had slept a long while. My body had needed the rest desperately. I was feeling quite better. This surprised me, since I thought I wouldn't get over my sickness. The nausea wasn't even around. At least for the moment it seemed gone.But I wasn't going to push my luck and try to eat anything yet. That would have to wait until I knew I was absolutely over my sickness. I wasn't going back to square one with this. I laid there for a few seconds before I decided to get up and look around for Dax. He had to be somewhere aroun

When I noticed the time, I felt like I should head off. I wasn't going to overstay my welcome with Lola. As I was ready to leave, she said, "I'm going to meet up with the gangster's subordinate and persuade them to give me more time."I was worried for her safety but didn't want to make her more anxious about the meeting. Hopefully, everything would go well for her. Maybe she'd get the time she needed without getting more hassle from him."Good luck. I know you can do it," I told her reassuringly."Yeah, I think I can too. I'll see you again sometime." She added, "I'm not sure when but we'll keep in touch.""Sounds good. I'll see you around."I waved goodbye to her and opened the door to leave. I went down the stairs and headed for where the car was parked. The chauffeur was waiting for me when I reached the car. He opened the back door for me.As we got closer to the mansion, my nervousness for my sister grew a little. But I had to be positive. I knew she could get more tim
