Chapter 42

Gwen's POV “You dare ditch me because of this thing here” The woman yelled, exasperated.Ricky grabbed her by the waist, attempting to free me from her grip.I had no idea what was going on or why it was happening, so I was left in complete amazement.“What is wrong with you Eva?, let go of her” With a fierce slap across my cheeks, she let go of my hair and violently pushed me to the ground. I held my tummy in agony.People began to look in our direction to see what the fuss was about. There were silent whispers flying around.“Are you alright Gwen” Ricky rushed over to me.“I am …”“Aww, is this not cute? He is asking for the well-being of his lover. You cheat” She jerked Ricky by the collar “how could you do this to me?”“Lover?” I grasp onto the realization.She must be Ricky's girlfriend.I managed to get to my feet while tightly clutching my stomach, which was still hurting from the push.“You canceled our dates and all our plans just so you could spend time with her?” She gla

Gwen's POV“Hey Gwen, Ricky asked to give you this,” Max said, handing me a note."I am a little busy, Max," I said, ignoring the note."I don't know what happened between you guys, and he would not tell me, but I know for a fact that he is deeply sorry."“Great, a customer is heading here. Let's talk later Max.” “Sure, I'd drop this here, read it if you have the chance”I have been avoiding Ricky since the incident. I couldn't just deal with it. Since he was the only friend I had in Oklahoma, I missed his company, but I decided it would be best if we kept our distance for the time being.“That would be $90 ma'am. Cash or credit card?” I asked with a warm smile."Credit Card," she said, holding out her card."Thank you for shopping with us; please come again."My first week on the job as a cashier at Savvy's Stores has been busy. The manager, Ray is a short, balded, cruel man who never seems to be satisfied.It reminded me of when I worked at the 'choicest restaurant'; the only di

“What?” I shrieked.I quickly grabbed my bag and rushed out of the store, making Max chase me.“Gwen, you okay?” He asked I ignored him and jumped into the first cab I saw, instructing the driver to go as fast as possible. My heart raced so fast that it felt like it was going to rip my chest open.Could you drive any faster than this, sir? With a trembling voice, I asked.I was sweating profusely and stamping my feet nonstop. I felt the vehicle was not moving fast enough.“Oh God.” I exclaimed loudly."Are you okay, miss?" the cab driver asked, concerned.How can I be okay with the news I just received? How can anyone possibly be okay?Granny was pacing the hallway when I caught a glimpse of her holding Evan. She looked tired and worried.“Granny, where is Ethan?” Tears were welling up in the corners of my eyes as I spoke.“He is being examined at the Neonatal Intensive care Unit”“Oh God!, but he was fine this morning. What happened Granny?” ‘I…When I took him out of his crib to f

Chapter 45

Gwen's POV Ricky and I stood at the entrance of Emory's Mansion. I didn't know if it was a good idea to bring him along but Granny insisted I needed all the support I could get because I was not in the right state of mind. She assured me that Sharon and her would be with the boys at the hospital till I returned with the money for the surgery. As much as I hated to be there, it was something I needed to do for the recovery of my child. My eyes were bulging due to the amount of tears I had shed over the last few days. I looked pale and had lost weight. I firmly gripped my bag and reminded myself of why I was there and what I needed to do. “Are you good Gwen?” Ricky asked. I nodded. “Let's go” It took a few seconds for a maid to answer the door after I knocked. I did not recognize her because when Mom was still alive, we had no maid. “Can I help you, miss?” She asked. I inhaled deeply as memories of my previous visit to this place flooded back. My heart began to ache immediate

Chapter 46

Gwen's povI sneaked out of Jane's apartment the next morning without telling her or Ricky.After everything that happened the last time, Jane would never be in support of me asking Andrew for help, and it would be a bad idea to bring Ricky along, especially given how Andrew feels about me.I noticed a large number of security guards at Andrew's mansion and wondered when this new development was adopted.They would not let me in because they were under strict orders not to let anyone in except very close friends and family.“You are not listening to me, this involves the life of a child” I cried.“Sorry ma'am, we can't let you in.” I kept on yelling but they totally ignored me.I was resolved to speak with Andrew regardless of the circumstances.I sat at the extreme end of the gate, my head resting on my knees. Eventually, he would have to leave the house.My phone was buzzing with calls and messages from Jane and Ricky.My appearance reflected someone who had lost her mental health.

Chapter 47

Andrew's POV"Please, baby," Elena said, wrapping her arms around me.“Can you hear yourself Elena?” I asked, getting agitated.“I just need your support this one time”“I have a meeting today. Why didn't you tell me earlier?” I asked, staring at her."Come on babe, you are the boss of yourself; you can always reschedule the meeting."“What exactly will my presence add to your event Elena? I know nothing about makeup”“You don't have to know anything about makeup”I let out an audible sigh."All right, I will try to drop by after my meeting."“For crying out loud, I am launching my new product Andrew, pretend you care at least” She yelled.“You never support me, you claim you are my fiance but you are never present in all my events” She added, giving me a vicious glare“Oh Christ” I exclaimed silently.“You should appreciate me Andrew. I take what I do seriously, I am not idle like that woman you were married to”.She always did this. Every little conversation or fight we had, she fi

Chapter 48

Gwen's POV"You have not stopped crying since yesterday, Gwen. You are injured, and it is not good for you," Jane said, holding my hands.I sat on the sofa staring at the ceiling.My well-being was the last thing I was thinking about. I had only a scratch on my head, but my son has a hole in his heart.“I had the money Jane, but they just took it away from me. Why are people so cruel?” Tears poured down my cheeks in a hot stream."We will figure something out, I promise," she reassured me.Ricky stood by the door, watching us. One could see how upset he was. He blamed himself for not being there to protect me.This was entirely my fault; I never should have gone there alone. It was too late now, the money for my boy's treatment was gone.“Ricky and I will be going back to Oklahoma later today. Granny said Ethan's health is not improving” I took a deep breath.“I should be there with him.”“Gwen, you can't travel in this state.” Jane said.“What would you have me do? Stay here? I need

Chapter 49

Andrew's POVI could not believe I was actually standing in front of the building.The building was two stories tall and contained several apartments.“Are you sure this is the place Fred?” I asked.“Yes boss. This is Jane's address. She is in room number six on the ground floor.I can not believe the search for Gwen led me here; I have never been anywhere like this.I sauntered into the building, accompanied by Fred, who was nearly twice my size.We arrived at a door with the number 6 written boldly on it. I was already here, and I can not turn back now.I reluctantly knocked on the door and heard a voice say, "I will be there in a sec."Shortly after, the door opened, and in front of me stood a blonde woman about Gwen's age.She was wearing an apron and her cheeks were covered in flour. The smile on her face disappeared the moment she saw me.“Jane?” I asked firmly. I had never met Jane before; I only knew her name because Gwen frequently mentioned it.“Yes. What are you doing here?

Chapter 50

Gwen's POVI opened my eyes and found myself wrapped in Ricky's arms. Apparently, I dozed off after our conversation last night.He looked so peaceful while sleeping. Sometimes I wondered what I had done to deserve someone as supportive as him. He was a true friend.I slowly released myself from his grip as I did not want to wake him up.I heard noise coming from Ethan's bed and I rushed there. My son was awake.His giggle made me smile, but I could also feel the tears welling up inside of me. I was happy and sad at the same time."My little angel," I said, cradling his tiny fingers.Suddenly, there was a loud beep from the ventilator that supplied air to Ethan. The beep was continuous and would not stop.“Oh my God!” I exclaimed."Doctor, nurse, anyone?" I called out, repeatedly tapping the emergency button.Ricky was startled awake by my scream, and he rushed over to me.Just then, a group of medical experts dashed into the room."You need to leave, ma'am," one of them said as the o
