CHAPTER 101

Alexia’s POV A weird beeping sound was buzzing in my ears. I guess that the beeping was coming from a heart monitor connected to me because I could feel it beside my head as I drifted back into consciousness. Why would a heart monitor be strapped to me? I panicked.My eyelids fluttered open but the light above me was too bright, forcing me to squint blearily. The first thing I saw was the white painted walls My bedroom is painted pink and blue so this certainly isn't my room. I could feel the stiff fabric of a hospital gown against my skin, the cool air biting at her exposed arms. Why am I in a hospital? My antenatal isn't until next week so there is no reason why I should be lying in a hospital bed right now.A dull throb at the side of my face brought back the events at the bar as I recall the handsy patron grabbing me and forcing me to sit on his laps and I think he swung his hand to hit me before I blacked out.So all of what happened in the bar wasn't some dream, I sighed. Why

CHAPTER 102

Alexia's POV The sound of the door opening has me looking up to see one of the doctors Ethan must have spoken about earlier, walking in, with Ethan following closely behind him. I am not sure he has left the hospital since he left the room about an hour ago.The doctor had a pleasant welcoming smile on his face that my fears were at ease. I mean him, smiling is a good thing right? If something had happened to me or the baby, he would not smile like that. I thought reassuring myself.I knew Ethan said the doctors that I attended to said I was fine, but I still had this irrational fear. What if my fall had affected my baby? Not even born yet and I already love this little bean as I often refer to the baby growing in my womb. I can't let anything happen to this precious baby.“Mrs Blackwood's I am glad to see you are awake.” He said, smiling pleasantly as he came to stand at the head of my bed. I shot Ethan who had decided to sit back on the chair he had sat on earlier at the corner o

CHAPTER 103

Ethan’s POV Two hours after I left Alexia, I stood by the door to her hospital room, unable to move further. I left earlier because I was too shocked by the news and I knew if I had remained there I would have exploded in anger and probably destroyed whatever small hope I had that she would forgive me.Though my anger was obvious l directed at myself, but she may misunderstand so I thought it was better to leave and try to get my emotions under wrap before coming back. What if she doesn't forgive me? That has been the question having a field day in my mind since I left.My hands trembled as I clutched the bouquet of daisies I had one of the Flowers shops here delivered to here immediately I stepped out of the room, knowing how much she loves flowers.The bouquet of daisies now felt meaningless.They seemed to be mocking their simplicity against the complexity of all the mounting issues between us. I swallowed hard as I stared at my beautiful wife lying on the bed. She is still the m

CHAPTER 104

Alexia’s POV I watched Ethan getting down on his knees to plead for my forgiveness. Oh how many times have I wished in the past that he would get down on his to profess his love for me. But here he is kneeling down to apologize after shattering my heart into a million pieces.I let out a hollow laugh, though there was no humor in it. "Fix it? Ethan, you can't just ‘fix’ something like this. There is fixing what you have done. You broke us. You broke me until there was nothing left but a shadow, a tiny fragment of myself"My words must have hit him hard because it was like his legs buckled and he sank into the chair beside my bed. He reached out to touch my arm that was resting close to where he was leaning on, but I pulled the hand back, cradling my stomach protectively. It was like a wall had gone up between us. one that seemed impossible to scale. I usually forgive and let go hurt's done to me, but in this instance, I am not sure I can ever forgive Ethan for what he has doneHis

CHAPTER 105

Ethan's POV The evening air outside the garden on the other side of the hospital was cool, but the tension between the three of us standing a few feet apart could ignite into flames. Austin and Aiden are both well-built, which isn't strange considering they play basketball so well. They stood side by side. I on the other hand was on my own.I have known since I brought Alexia to the hospital that this confrontation was going to happen but I was hoping we could discharge Alexia firstThey stared at me with eyes cold with fury. If looks could kill I would have been dead and buried already from how both of them are looking like they could incinerate me with just their looks.I, Ethan Blackwood, billionaire CEO of Blackwoods company who is never afraid of any confrontation. But this confrontation is different from others. This was more personal.To an onlooker, I know I looked every inch the powerful man I am, but tonight there was no arrogance in my stance as I faced down the most impo

CHAPTER 106

Alexia’s POV I stood at the entrance of Ethan's new apartment as I took in the edifice before me. It was a grand estate, the iron gates looming above her like the walls she had built around her heart in the past few months. This building, though huge, was somehow different from the mansion that had been her matrimonial home.Ethan and Jeff were pulling out my boxes from the car. I had offered to help but they both looked at me like I was being stupid for even thinking they would allow me to touch a thing, so I stepped aside to allow them to do their thing.Ever since Ethan found out about my pregnancy he has been treating me like I was made of glass. He must have also informed Jeff about it too, because Jeff has been delicately treating me, totally different from her he has treated me before. On the drive from the airport I had wanted to get something to eat at a restaurant on the road, before I could even open the car door to get down, Ethan was already there. I almost told him th

CHAPTER 107

Ethan POV “How is it going man?” Ryan asked from where he was reclining at the pub we usually frequented whenever we wanted to hang out. Nate was sitting beside him nursing a bottle of beer. I'm glad I allowed Ryan to pull me out of the office and practically blackmailed me into coming with them. I have been moody since I came back to New York City and I think it has to do with the fact that my relationship with Alexia is still strained. I had hoped after a week of coming back together, I would be able to woo her into forgiving me and allowing us to go back to the loving couple we were before Linda happened. However it turned out to be far from what I expected. She has been so cold to me. She rebuffs all of my attempt to woo her.“Man, I would not lie to you, it hasn't been easy. Alexia hasn't still forgiven me. We are practically living in the house like strangers.” I sighed, rubbing a hand on my face.“So sorry about that man. She needs to see you are remorseful and just forgive

CHAPTER 108

Alexia’s POV “Ethan I am resuming work and God help me I will straight up murder you with my bare hands if you tell me one more time that I shouldn't work.” I said, eyes blazing with fury.Ethan wisely took a step back. Good he has some sense left after all. It's been a month since I got back to New York City and Ethan is still hellbent on not allowing me to go back to work. First it was the argument that he was not comfortable with me going to work for another company because of how people would perceive me working for another company when my husband is the CEO of his company. That he would rather I come back to Blackwoods. I conceded just so he would allow me work.Once that argument was done, he came up with another argument that for the safety of the babies I shouldn't go to work until they are born and that he would provide every financial need I may have. Well, as dandy as that may sound, I am not one to depend on any man for my financial needs, especially not one who has pro

CHAPTER 109

Ethan's POV “Sir, your 10 o'clock is here.” Alexia said as she pushed my door open to step in. “Seriously? You are still calling me sir?” “Aren't you my boss?” She countered “You know what I mean.” I insisted “Please remind me what you meant, because the last time I checked I am still your P.A and as such I have to address you as sir.” She said not willing to shift grounds. “Please send him in.” I said not ready for a fight. Since we got back together, it seems the old sweet Alexia was replaced with this argumentative Alexia. I don't know if the pregnancy also contributed to her being antsy. She jumps on every opportunity to fight with him. Despite the argument though, I would still choose her over everyone else. I would rather she argue with me than totally shutting me out of her life.. Besides, I find her arguments really endearing, though I will never admit it to her. “Okay sir.” She said as she walked out of my office. I know she did that to intentionally get a rise ou

CHAPTER 110

Alexia’s POV “Thank God you are back! How was the doctor's session?” Jeff asked immediately after I stepped into the car. “It was okay, the doctor gave the all-clear report when after he examined me. Did something happen while I was inside?”Jeff exhaled before starting the car. “Well, your husband almost blew my phone up with incessant calls to find out if you were okay.”“Sorry about that. But why didn't he call me?” I asked curious.“He called your number but you weren't answering so he decided I was going to be the one to give him every minute update.” He said exasperated.Oh, shoot! I placed my phone in silent mode when before going into the doctor's office because I didn't want it ringing and disrupting the meeting. I didn't even remember to check to see if some calls came in.I dipped my hand into my purse and pulled out my phone. As I screwed through it, I saw that I had 12 missed calls. Eight were from Ethan and two were from Stacey. 10 missed calls? One would think there w
