All Chapters of Bound To The Billionaire: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

I couldn’t keep off the nagging voice in my head as I made it to my hospital appointment, and all the while I was occupied thinking about the last time I got my implant.It has become a part of me so much that I have forgotten about it, and now I am regretting it. I have been unsafe for the past month, and I needed to be sure.I arrived at the hospital and headed straight to the fertility clinic, wearing huge sunglasses even though I was inside. I was trying to avoid an unnecessary run-in with someone I know.I sat in the waiting area, waiting for my turn, while I busied myself with my calendar, trying to remember the last time I had a period.All that was only giving me headaches, and I couldn’t be more grateful when the doctor called my name and I entered in.“Miss Ruby, it has been a while.” The female doctor said with a huge smile that threatened to tear her lips. It was even surprising that she remembered me because I couldn’t remember the last time I was here, nor could I rememb

“I want an abortion.”Everywhere grew still as I proclaimed the words; even the air was static, as if the world were in shock at what I had just said.I didn’t even need to look at her face to know that the doctor was in shock. I mean, I wasn’t a teenager who wanted to get rid of an unplanned pregnancy; I was an adult, and many people my age would be looking for children now.But here I was, doing the opposite.I looked up at her, and her mouth was slightly open; her brown eyes widened a quarter, but she shook herself out of the daze.“I don’t know if I heard you correctly.”I smiled and nodded my head, not taking offense. Although abortion has been legal in the state of Washington for a while, it is still frowned upon."Yes, you heard right. I want an abortion.”“Alright.” She replied, although I knew that wasn’t all she had to say, so I decided to rescue her. “It is fine; you can ask me if you want to.”“I don’t want to pry, but I have been your gynecologist for a long time, and I am

Jeremy’s fingers hovered on the screen of the phone, contemplating his decision. “Is there a need for it?” He couldn’t help but wonder.If he could have his way, he wouldn’t bother, but with their new relationship status—whatever it was, it was only right that he knew.If he were the one in that position, he would be happy if he was told the truth, no matter how bad it was.And that was the only reason he was scrolling through her contacts to look for Alex. He found it easily since she had saved his name with Alex.Something he was grateful for.If Ruby had saved it as anything else, maybe a pet name, he would have lost it.“This is for Ruby.” Jeremy said underneath his breath before he clicked on the contact and called him.He held his breath as the phone rang, suddenly believing he had done the wrong thing and praying he didn’t pick up the call.He should have prayed harder because after the fourth rang, the person on the other end picked up the call.“Ruby?” Alex's baritone voice b

Alex’s ears were ringing as he heard what the doctor had said. “I am sorry; I don’t understand what you are saying. Are you sure it is Ruby?”“I am quite positive that the comatose lady was pregnant, and since you are the husband, I assume you already know about it.” The doctor frowned.Alex could only nod his head. I mean, what more could he say?“Good. Unfortunately, she lost the pregnancy, but we were able to stop the bleeding, and there are no damages to her womb.”“Thank you, doctor.” Alex could only manage to croak out.***Alex shook his head, trying to get rid of the image in front of him. He was still trying to wrap his head around the fact that Ruby had been pregnant, and she didn’t seem to tell him.“Was it his?” The question lingered in his mind, and he was afraid to think the worst. “Why did she hide it? Did she think I would reject it?” All these questions filled his head, but he had no answer to them.It hurt him to think that Ruby would have kept such information from

When I woke up, it was too bright, and I was grateful for the thick curtain that shielded me from the harsh rays of the sun.My eyes scanned the whole expanse of the room—something seemed to be lacking. Yeah, I was right; I couldn’t perceive the scent of Alex’s cologne, and he wasn’t anywhere in the room. For a second, fear gripped my heart as different thoughts began to race through my mind.Has he finally gotten tired of all my baggage and left me? I raised my head in an attempt to stand up, and I found out that 70% of the pain I was feeling was gone.I shifted, ready to stand up, but the door swung open to reveal Alex looking every bit like an avenging warrior. “Alex.” I shouted, excited, but I only ended up stressing myself, and I burst into a bit of a cough.Alex was rushing to my side, and I don’t know how he did it, but he was holding a bottle of water in his hands, and he was holding my head, directing my mouth to the bottle.“Easy.” He said as I rushed the water, and it flew
