Pregnant For My Best Friend’s Son의 모든 챕터: 챕터 121 - 챕터 130

Eggust's POV The weather was bright and sunny. I just couldn't believe it. It had started out stormy but sometime between the time we left and when we arrived, the sun had started smiling. "It's lovely weather we're having today." Ezekiel commented as we headed out. "Yes indeed. It seems like luck is finally on our side." One of the policemen concurred. I didn't remember his name even though we'd been introduced. Actually, Ezekiel had told me his name during the briefing last night but with so much on my mind and little interest, I totally forgot. He was a tall burly man that seemed to wear the buzzed haircut like it was made for him. In general, he was the billboard perfect image of a policeman. "With the plan we've hatched out, nothing could possibly go wrong." I almost groaned. Overconfidence was always the bedrock of failure. He must have noticed my frown because he rushed to assure me. "You don't need to worry sir. We'll catch her today." Well, I certa

Eggust’s Pov. I stood outside the station, taking a long drag on my cigarette. Huffing and puffing as the smoke filled my lungs. And for a moment, I forgot about the chaos around me. Ezekiel was inside negotiating with the other man that claimed Hera was his prisoner and not mine. Who knew the poor bitch had it in her to go around causing troubles for herself. I always thought she was the spineless chicken and Isla was the hothead but people are indeed full of surprises. Take my mum for instance, going after my girlfriend who also happened to be her best friend that is pregnant with her grandchild/godchild. The world is indeed crazy. Taking another drag of my cigarette I cackled at my analogy and decided to enjoy this moment as best as I could. However my peace was short-lived. “Eggust!” A voice called out, it was stern and disapproving. I knew that tone all too well. and like you must have already imagined, it wasn’t from my father. No, you see my father wasn’t rea

Juss’ Pov I picked a table at the corner of the cafe. It was cozy and surrounded by the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, plus no one would really pay attention to it. The sunlight streaming through the large windows brought a sense of warmth to the cafe and helped with the dreadfulness I felt inside of me. There were art works plastered on the walls, each carrying a different but soft meaning, creating a welcoming atmosphere. I chose this place specifically for its privacy and comfort. I hadn’t heard from Eggust since he walked out of the hospital that day and I just needed to talk to him. As I waited for Eggust to arrive, I felt a tingling sensation inside my belly. I couldn’t help but smile. My baby was growing bigger every day and it still felt surreal that I was meeting them soon. I took a sip of the herbal tea I had ordered earlier, savoring the soothing flavor while taking a whiff of the aroma, which helped calm my nerves. I kept glancing towards the door, hoping Eg

Marlani's POV "I'm afraid there's no other reason to keep you here Mrs Flemming. You're stable enough to be discharged." I looked at the doctor in exasperation. What on earth was his problem? Was he really kicking me out? I’m a VIP patient!! He told me I was ready to be discharged three days ago but I didn’t want to leave yet, so I pretended to feel general body weakness and he fell for it. He'd told the nurse to let me stay two more days so they could observe me and my time had run up yesterday...... I had no more excuses to use. "But I haven't recovered fully!" I insisted. "Would you really send me home and risk something going wrong again? What if I develop something........ something!" He smiled patiently. "I understand your fears well madam, but you're past any crisis or risk of a relapse. And you'll recover more quickly when you're in a familiar environment in the midst of family and loved ones." 'Well, that's the problem!' I thought to myself, I had no hom

Juss's POV The worst had happened. The absolute worst in fact. I sensed it when Eggust called me that morning and asked me to meet him at the hospital. I panicked thinking something bad happened to Marlani. "Oh no, she's just getting discharged." He'd told me but I couldn't shake off the bad feeling that something was definitely wrong. If she was just getting discharged, I thought, why would they want me there? It was bound to be a nasty scene and I did not want to be present but there was nothing I could do. I had to go. When we got there, I took one look at Eggust's face and I fell for him all over again. Despite the argument we'd had with his mum the last time and how he'd threatened to cut off ties with her, he had come running to take her home after her discharge. They had such a special bond. As it should be between a mother and a child. Something I looked forward to having with my child as well. Relief washed over me at the fact that
