All Chapters of The Devil's Secretary : Chapter 71 - Chapter 77

Lillian I just ended a call with Jade. She was supposed to accompany me to the opening ceremony of my jewellery shop next week, but she just informed me that she would be on her first business trip next week. So I'll have to move the date to this week. I already sent out flyers and posts on social media and it gained a lot of attention. Everything was set and I couldn't be happier. You should see the building, Zayden had great taste. I'm going to make sure to compensate him fully tonight, just the way he likes it. I'll have to postpone the visit to his father's mansion. I wanted to spread the news of my pregnancy; maybe that hot-headed old man would look at me with less Coldness in his eyes. It's been weeks since we got back from Paris and no one knows about my pregnancy, not even Claire. It's kind of odd. Zayden said he does not want to reveal it yet, but I'm tired of waiting. I went to the kitchen and met Zayden mixing god knows what in a bowl. He's a terrible cook. No m

Zayden Lillian didn't say a word.Sage waved a hand in front of her face." Are you deaf or something? You should better start packing up, I need to fumigate this place soon." Slowly, Lillian lifted her eyes. They were dead, no colour in them. The usual bluish glow was gone." What did you say?" Her voice was icy, even I felt the chill.Sage huffed, flipping her hair over her shoulders." I said I'm moving in since I'm carrying the future heir to the company. Take your trash and move out before tomorrow!" Her voice came out as a yell.Suddenly, Lillian lifted the broken mop stick, and it landed directly on Sage's head. She let out a cry as she landed on her butt. Lillian raised the stick again and sent it crashing into her head again, and then she began hitting her on the leg, purposely avoiding her tummy, back and waist. Sage screeching cries reached my ears but I just stood there watching. She couldn't even defend herself; she was as weak and helpless as a church rat. If I wa

Lillian I glanced at the wall clock, it was 10:55 in the morning. Once again I'll be late for my appointment. I had been going to the hospital for antenatal care on my own. I had to monitor my health and my baby's health. I lost a few pounds which wasn't good news for a pregnant lady. I've had pains in my abdomen a few times and that's when I knew I had to see the doctor. I was told the pains were due to emotional stress, and I had to take my mind off anything that would stress me mentally. So what have I been doing since I divorced my husband? I would wake up in the morning, do some light stretches, eat a good breakfast then watch TV till noon. I then discovered that I was developing a liking for anime. I'll sleep once it clocks twelve, and then when the sun comes down, I'll take a walk to a private clinic not too far from where I live to have a chat with my fellow expectant mothers. Pathetic! They all smile at me, pretending to show kindness to a single mother l

Lillian My eyelids were heavy, my whole body was aching all over. The floor felt strong and rough, where the hell was I? The first thing I thought of was Zayden and our baby. A piercing pain shot through my skull from where I was hit. I felt my body swerving from left to right like I was in a vehicle. I could hear voices but my head was still spinning to even make out what they were saying." He said not to hurt her. She's pregnant! Why the fuck did you hit her on the head." I heard a man's voice. " Shut the fuck up, Falco. I didn't hit her belly, so there's no big deal." Another one roared.The first man who appeared to be called Falco scoffed." What if she loses the baby? What are you going to tell him, huh? I'm not taking your side if that happens." My stomach lurched and I remained as still as possible. I tried desperately to feel my tummy. I didn't feel any specific pain, and I thanked God Internally. That meant I was okay and the baby was okay. All I had to do I stay calm
