All Chapters of Mommy, I Want You To Marry Daddy!: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

CHRISTOPHER My muscles clenched and unclenched, over and over again, as I watched the car that had dropped Selena off drive away. My hand gripped the doorknob so tightly that I could feel the tension in my body transferring to the poor knob. It was as if I was pouring all of my emotions into the metal in my hand. It was the only thing keeping me from running after the car and punching whoever was in the car in the face.Although I couldn't be sure, I had a sinking feeling that the driver was none other than Pedro Lopez, Selena's ex-lover and the father of her child. The very same man that she'd never really gotten over, and whose child had grown to love me. My mind raced with thoughts of what this meant, and how it would affect my relationship with Selena.Would Selena still want to be with me, knowing that her ex was back in the picture? Or would she choose to go back to him and leave me behind? I couldn't shake the feeling of dread that was settling over me.I let out a heavy sigh

SELENAI stood beside Edward's hospital bed, watching him sleep peacefully without any of the usual tubes and machines connected to his body. His chest rose and fell in a steady rhythm as he breathed, and I found myself smiling through my tears. It was a relief to see him like this, after all he had been through. I wiped away my tears and tried to compose myself, but I couldn't stop the steady stream of tears that continued to roll down my cheeks. I wiped my palms on my shirt, then reached out and pulled the blanket up to Edward's chest. I rested my hand on his chest, feeling the slow, steady rhythm of his heartbeat. And then I lost it, the tears falling faster and faster until I was sobbing uncontrollably. "It's not fair that your heart is going to stop beating in a few months, right?” I whispered, biting my hand to keep from sobbing. I had promised Edward that I would stay strong for him, but I couldn't hold back the tears any longer. I didn't want him to wake up and see me cryin

SELENAI didn't know I had been holding back my breath until I watched Mitchell walk through the door. I released a sigh of relief. Honestly, I had little to no faith that she would come back, but seeing her making her way through the door made my face lit up with a smile.“Hey,” I smiled, waving my hand as she walked up to me. I wondered if the wave was necessary but I couldn't compromise my happiness to see her.Mitchell returned the smile, her lips curved to one side as she stretched out her hand for me. “Here, have it.” she beamed, handing me one of the two coffee cups in her hands.I took the cup from her and held it with both hands. “Thank you.” Mitchell nodded her head, taking her seat beside me on the long bench. She took a sip from her coffee, sighing as she moved her gaze up to the sky.The question burst out of my mouth before I could stop it. I had been dying to ask her what had happened, why she had disappeared, and now I couldn't contain myself any longer. I had to know

SELENA‘Oops, my first day at work is no fun at all.’ I chuckled, remembering Mitchell's whining after she realized that the patient she was assigned to was still sleeping and wouldn't wake up until the time she needed to get back home.“God. I miss her.” I smiled, got out of the cab and shook my head, not believing any of what happened back there at the hospital.Meeting Mitchell was still like a dream to me. A dream I never wanted to wake up from. And the fact that the patient she was assigned to was no other person but Edward made it feel surreal. ‘Let’s meet tomorrow if you have a chance. I will text you the location.’ I lowered my gaze to my phone, and seeing her name in my contact list made my smile widen.She had given me her number and invited me to meet her at the coffee shop before she went to work. I was excited at the prospect of seeing her again. Then, my mind drifted off to what happened the last time I visited the coffee shop made my smile widen. I moved my hand to my

CHRISTOPHER As we pulled up to the hospital ward, I saw a figure sitting on a bed, reading a book. From the distance, I couldn't make out who it was, but I had a feeling that it was Mr. Edward. I saw Selena tense up beside me, her fingers gripping my sleeve tightly. I knew she was nervous, but I also knew we had to go in.I leaned close and whispered in her ear, "You've got this. Don't be nervous." I gave her hand a gentle squeeze before releasing it from my sleeve. I knew she was feeling anxious, but I also knew that she was strong enough to handle this. I gave her a reassuring smile and took a deep breath.Selena took a deep breath, and I could see her resolve hardening. She gave me a small nod as if to say that she was ready to face whatever was on the other side of the door. She reached out, her hand trembling slightly, and opened the door."Edward!" Selena called out, her voice shaking slightly. The man looked up from his book, his eyes widening as he saw her standing there. A s
