All Chapters of A Second Life With The Billionaire : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Leaving Gina’s office, Luna drove back to her office. She had let Matt go again, she had told him she didn’t want to keep him hanging around. Which was true, technically, but really, she had just wanted to be alone.Following her appointment with Gina, Luna had known beforehand that she was going to be emotional and feeling all sorts of emotions. Emotions that she didn’t need Matt, or anybody else for that matter, seeing. And she was right, Luna thought to herself as she drove, she was feeling emotional.Not teary or overly joyful or anything like that, it seemed like she was done with all that now. What she was feeling now was a more softer feeling, a gentler and yet deeper feeling. Maternal, she thought. She rubbed a hand protectively over her flat stomach. She didn’t know if all expectant mothers felt the way she did, but she couldn’t wait for her stomach to start swelling with the growth of her baby inside her. She wanted to feel that protruding, the roundness that came with i

Finally, Mira was back from her vacation. Luna pulled up in front of her mother’s house, she turned off the ignition and then just sat in the car as she stared at the house.She thought of the conversation she was about to have with her mother. She was just about to tell her mother that she was pregnant again, and the baby’s father was none other than the evil ex-husband who had made her life a living hell for years. She was just about to tell her mother that a part of the same person who had broken her heart and almost shattered her spirit and soul to smithereens, was even now growing inside her.Luna placed a hand on her stomach, imagining the conversation.The fact that she was carrying Justin’s child inside her wouldn’t be the only contender that would stir her mother up, Luna knew, but also the act that she had done to get to that point. She had slept with Justin. After all she had gone through at his hands, after how much both she- and Mira, because of a mother’s love for her

Logan’s words circled around in Luna’s head even as everybody in the conference room started to settle down. It was almost 9AM, which was the time stated for the meeting, and business men and business women were nothing if not punctual. They were only waiting on one person now.Just then, he walked in. Luna watched as Justin walked into the room. All eyes turned on him, the attention of almost everyone in the room slowly became focused on the room.One could say it was because he was the last person to enter the room, and because of that, naturally people would look over towards the entrance to him. But Luna knew different. She knew the only reason people turned to look at Justin was because of Justin. Him. He had that natural prowess, that embedded quality of dominance that seemed to have been wired into his genetics from birth.Luna knew from experience, and having lived with the Lake family for years, that Logan had that same quality too. And so she could say Justin got it from

Three days later, Luna stood in the middle of her office, in front of the full length mirror Jaden had helped her procure earlier that day. She ran a hand down her flat stomach, she turned sideways and then turned to the other side again. Logically, she knew the custom made dress fit snugly to her figure, and there was no visible sign of her pregnancy to be seen, but she still couldn’t quite shake the antsy feeling away. “You’re sure my bump is not showing in this dress, Andi,” she asked for the umpteenth time that night. “I feel like it’s showing a little, do you think it’s showing?” Andi, who was lounging on the edge of Luna’s desk behind her, rolled her eyes. “For the one trillionth time, Luna, no, it’s not showing. You don’t have a ‘baby bump’ either, you’re not even one month in.” Luna turned her head to give Andi a dry look. “And you’re the expert on pregnancy because?” “Because my big sister has been pregnant three different times, and has half a dozen kids, and a dog

The show went on, with more models strutting out on the runway wearing different shades of clothes, representing investors. Jake’s had been simple too, like Logan, but with a dash of style and danger. Remembering the Jake that had pulled up to the airport to take her to the party six years ago, Luna thought Honor hit that one right on the head too. As soon as the model representing Justin had walked out, Luna had known instantly. She hadn’t needed the announcer’s guidance, she hadn’t needed the loud applause from the rest of the investors to know. Even though the model had been the last to walk out- and that would have been some kind of indicator that it was Justin, seeing as he was the head of the whole show and they saved the best for the last- Luna hadn’t needed even that indicator to know it was Justin. The sharp, bold cut and power suit the model had on was a perfect example of Justin’s essence. Elegant, cool, but not cold, and yet somehow daring and scary at the same time. Y
