All Chapters of Bianca's reclaimed heart: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

I slowly opened my eyes, taking in the warm glow of the morning light streaming through the windows. As I turned carefully to the other side, I was met with the sight of Raymond's peaceful face, his chest rising and falling with each gentle breath. I smiled, feeling a surge of love and gratitude for this man who had brought so much joy and happiness into my life.It's been seven months since I had started living with him and last month he surprisingly asked that I marry him and that we plan a proper baby shower where family and friends would be invited. Stealing one last glare at him, I blushed. Raymond was indeed my peace. “Yes!” I exclaimed softly, agreeing to the idea that just dropped in my mind. I was going to make Raymond one of my old signature dish I learnt from my mother.Carefully, throwing off the covers,I swung my legs over the side of the bed, trying not to disturb Raymond. I wrapped my night robe around my slender body, making sure to cover my already large baby bump.

“You want what?” I asked, my eyeballs almost popping out from its socket in shock and a mix of amusement. As I continued to stare at him, I couldn't help but laugh hysterically in shock at the trash of a bombshell Diego just dropped.He wanted me back? After what he did to me? The absurdity was almost too much to bear. “He must be stupid to think that I would go back to him.” I thought in my head. But as I gazed at him, my laughter died down, replaced by a mix of anger and disgust. The baby kicked slightly in my belly, as if sensing my turmoil.I gave Diego a long, stern glare, my eyes boring into his. How dare he? Taking a deep breath, and with my heart pounding in my chest. I boldly closed the gap between us, looked straight into his eyes, and spoke so firmly and with a determined resolve. "You're dead dreaming, Diego. You are a joke."Diego's eyes widened slightly, but he didn't flinch. He just stood there, his gaze locked on mine, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. I fel

Juana's POV “Damn, Diego!” I cursed as I paced back and forth across the luxurious living room, my high heels clicking on the marble floor. “Where the heck are you?”I was so enraged, Diego had been acting up for some days now, he was supposed to come home last night, but he never showed up. And now, he wasn't even answering my calls.I muttered to myself, my voice rising in frustration. "What is wrong with him? Doesn't he know I'm worried sick about him? He didn't even drop a message." I stopped pacing and spun around, my eyes scanning the room as if searching for answers. "And why isn't he picking up my calls? Is he avoiding me?"I resumed my pacing, my mind racing with worst-case scenarios. What if something had happened to him? What if he was hurt or... or worse? I shuddered at the thought, my heart racing with anxiety.And then, a different thought occurred to me, one that made my blood boil. What if he was with her? What if he was with Bianca? I clenched my fists, my nails digg

Bianca's POV My hands were at akimbo as I stared at the smoothed out bed which after several minutes of struggle I had succeeded in laying flat.I had just woken up from a restless sleep and a terrible dream. I didn't know if it was a warning sign or just an aftermath of my reeling mind which was still occupied with the events of a few days ago.As I worked, my thoughts drifted back to my confrontation with Diego. I had been so caught off guard, and my emotions had gotten the better of me. I had said things I couldn't take back, and now I was left to wonder what would happen next.“What if he goes through with his threat?” I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't even notice Raymond sneaking up behind me. It wasn't until he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me close that I flinched, my heart racing with surprise."Hey, sorry about that my love,” Raymond said, his voice low and smooth. "I didn't mean to scare you."I took a deep breath, trying to calm my racing heart. "It

Raymond’s POV“Today has to be perfect,” I voiced out in my head as I paced back and forth in the grand ballroom, my eyes scanning the elegant decorations and the catering staff scurrying about. Today was the day - the day of the baby shower, and I wanted everything to be perfect.Bianca was my world, and now I wasn't just going to have her to myself but I am getting an extra gift to the package. As I reminisced about the love journey of Bianca and I, my heart filled with gratitude and I was determined to make this day special for her and our unborn child. A day that she would never forget. “Mrs Jenkins, please make sure the best wines are used to serve the guests today. Everything should be in order.” I quickly said, my voice calm but urgent as Mrs Jenkins walked across the hall. Mrs Jenkins nodded and smiled at my request. “Today would be a beautiful day Raymond, you don't need to worry.” I scanned the room making sure everything was in their rightful position for the last time
