Chapter 31

Elena’s POV:I held the test strips in my hands as I looked at the result. Zoey and Irina gave me a questioning look. I looked at them in confusion, and the words couldn't come out of my throat. I could not believe what I was seeing. It was as if it were all a dream. This is what Nicklaus and my family ever wanted. “Elena!” I heard a sound coming from the room. I raised my eyes because the voice was familiar and the door was swung open. It was Nicklaus. He quickly opened the door to run to me, but he froze when he saw what was in my hand. My breath ceased as I looked at him. My heart was beating fast, and my excitement was growing. “Did you?” he asked while he stuttered. “Did you take the test?” he asked. I nodded my head with a smile on my lips as I pressed my lips into a thin line. “I did the test,” I said. “What?” he asked. His gaze moved to the test strips. “I did the test.” I spoke out loud, and Nicklaus watched me in disbelief. I showed him the result, and his eyes widen

Elena’s POV:I woke up the next day in Nicklaus’ arms. He had been very happy about the news, and he had been pampering me since yesterday. I slowly walked out of bed as I felt nauseous. I ran to the bathroom to throw up, and Nicklaus followed me to the bathroom.He held my hair up and rubbed my back. I have been throwing up since yesterday. I sat on the toilet seat and rested for a while. Nicklaus helped clean me up, and he decided to bathe me. He prepared the bathtub and filled it with nice essential oils and some rose petals.“You are going to be just fine; just let me help you relax,” he said, and he reached for my hands. I relaxed my head on his legs as he massaged my scalp. The rest of my body was in the water. After some time, he washed my hair and scrubbed my body. The hot water was so relaxing, and I began to regain my strength. He turned on the warm water, which cascaded down my body from head to toe. He gently rinsed me off. His hands were so soft, and he was gentle with

Chapter 34

Elena’s pov: I slowly woke up from my sleep when I felt the sun's rays on my skin. My stomach ached a little, and my feet were sore. The baby bump is beginning to show. It's been 9 weeks since I found out I am pregnant, and that means I am 12 weeks gone. Nicholas has been kind and caring to me. He always watched out, and he was protective and possessive. I had been going for antenatal care, but today was my rest day. I yawned and slowly opened my heavy eyes. I sat upright and rested my head on the headboard. My eyes widened when I saw Nicklaus sitting at the end of the bed, staring at me. “Damn, you startled me. How long have you been watching me?” I spoke.“A couple of hours,” he responded with a wide grin on his face. I glanced at the wall clock, and it was almost noon. “You should be at work. I spoke as I yawned.“I just wanted to make sure that you had a wonderful rest. Did you sleep well?” he asked. I nodded my head. “Now, come have your bath,” he said, gently taking me ou

Chapter 35

Nicklaus’ POV:I was seated at my desk, discussing work projects and business transactions with the board of directors. I could hear how busy the office was today. It was a hectic season. Phones rang and were answered continuously, with papers shuffling and a lot of work going on. The new project had led to everybody having a very busy schedule. Andre, one of my close friends and a business partner, paid me a visit, and we discussed the ongoing project and our next appointment. We also chatted about our personal lives and caught up on a lot. There was a gentle door, and I looked up and said, "Come in.” I spoke, and it was swung open by Joe. He walked inside the office and approached me with an envelope in his hand. “I apologise for the interruption, sir; this came in for you,” he said, extending his hands to pass me the envelope. “An invitation card to the Los Angeles Academy Awards,” he stated. I looked through the card and read the content. “The Los Angeles Academy Awards,”I

Chapter 36

Elena’s POV:It is another lovely day. I woke up very early in the morning to do some exercises and stretch my legs. The antenatal classes have been helpful, and I have been feeling at ease for some time now. I finished my morning exercise when the sun had risen, and I walked into the house to have a nice shower. Nicklaus helped me in the shower.I went downstairs and tied my hair up in a messy bun. I perceived the smell of bacon and fried fish, which made me even more hungry.“Good morning, Madam,” the chefs greeted. “Good morning,” I said back as I sat at the kitchen counter. They all fixed their eyes on me, and I raised an eyebrow. “Why are y'all staring?” I asked, placing my hands under my chin. “Do I look like a mess?” I askedOne of the chefs nodded her head. “Quite the contrary, ma'am. Your skin glows, and you look heavenly. I rolled my eyes. “That's what you get when you are being taken care of,” I said, and we all laughed. She stood up to pour me a glass of fresh juice,

Chapter 37

Elena’s POV:My heart skipped a bit, and I stood frozen. Zoey was in front of me as she chatted about the whole day's activities, not knowing that I had been behind. My jaw dropped, and my eyes widened.“Elena, why did you stop?” Zoey asked, and she turned back to me. I decided to quickly walk away from him when he held my hands. “Elena, we need to talk,” he said. I quickly removed my hand from his grip and said, "Stay away from me. There is nothing to talk about.” I spoke and wanted to walk away when he held my hands. Zoey quickly ran to me and saw that it was Caleb that I was talking to. I struggled to remove my hand from his grip. “Let go of her now, you scumbag?” Zoey ordered, her voice rising. Caleb gave her a daring look and turned to me. He released my hands, and I wanted to walk away from him as quickly as I could. When he tried to hold my hand again, I raised my hand and landed it on his face, giving him a dirty slap.“I never want to cross paths with you. Let me the fu

Chapter 38

Elena’s POV:I woke up early in the morning and carefully stirred in the bed. I noticed that the bed was empty, so I opened my eyes. I remembered that I had fallen asleep in Nicklaus's arms, and he wasn't in bed. I slowly got out of bed and walked into the bathroom, hoping to find him in there since it was still too early to go to work. I swung the door open and scanned the room, but Nicklaus was nowhere in the room. “Nicklaus?” I called out while walking out of the bathroom. I walked out of the bedroom and headed downstairs. I could perceive the nice aroma of an omelette and bacon. My stomach growled, but I ignored the hunger and searched for Nicklaus. I walked into the kitchen to see a completely different person in the kitchen; it was Nicklaus. He was dressed in his vest and shorts, which revealed his muscles. He wears an apron.I narrowed my eyes and moved closer. “Nicklaus? I called. He turned around and looked at me with a wide grin on his face, and his eyes sparked. “Good

Chapter 40

Nicklaus’s POV:I stood in front of the door, my eyes fixed on the grand staircase, as I waited for Elena to come downstairs. After a few minutes, she elegantly walked down the stairs. Her presence commanded her attention, and my gaze was on her. She looked so beautiful and attractive in that red dress. She is a real beauty, and I never regretted making her my wife. She walked down the stairs with a broad smile on her face as our eyes met. The bright light from the chandelier made her look like the spotlight, and I became speechless. She has always been a beautiful woman; right from the first day I set my eyes on her at the altar. I am glad she will be the mother of my kids with these beautiful genes. Her black hair was styled perfectly, and her makeup was natural and flawless. I patiently waited for her to come downstairs when I walked up to her. I smiled at her and said, “You are so beautiful, my wife.” I spoke, and my voice was so audible that my workers could hear me. They al
