“Hi... Derek.” She replied and he chuckled.“You two know each other?” Alex asked and she nodded.“Yeah, we go way back.” She replied and laughed nervously, Alex's phone rang and he excused himself, Derek kept smiling at Audrey and she avoided his look as she walked towards her seat.“Baby, I am so sorry. I have to go.” Alex said walking back to Audrey as she was about to sit.“No, don't go. Can it wait?” She whispered and looked at him with pleading eyes. She didn't want to be left alone with Derek.“I am sorry but it's really important.” He replied and wrapped his arms around her waist, he kissed her softly and smiled at her before walking out of the office.Derek kept smiling and slowly took a seat as she also sat down.“So, where should we start?” Derek asked as she fixed her eyes on the computer.“Yeah... Right. Your new products have been... ““Really? Don't play the dumb card, you know that is not what I mean.” “What?” Audrey asked confused.“Let's talk about us, about what ha
Audrey sat in the plane and she kept playing with her fingers nervously, it's been two weeks since Derek visited her in New York City asking for an Amniocentesis test. She got a message from Mr. Robbin a week back ordering her to be in Los Angeles but she declined it.She needed to make her own decisions, the Robbin’s family can't keep controlling her and telling her what to do. Chloe eventually got to her and persuaded her to come to Los Angeles but she didn't agree to do the test. She told Alex, (her fiance) she would be going on a business trip in Los Angeles, he offered she take guards with her but she only picked her personal bodyguard. Kevin. The plane finally landed and Audrey got off it with her bodyguard, Kevin escorted her to the car waiting for them at the airport.After a while, they got to a hotel and they both got out of the car, she looked up at the name and exhaled.“Imperial.” She called out the name of the hotel and turned to Kevin with a smile.“Did you check all
“Tell me!” Audrey snapped at Chloe and she chuckled. “I’m sorry, I really can't. I will be invading Damien’s privacy that way, I can't tell you if he doesn't want to tell you.” She replied and Audrey sighed. “But it isn't fair, you guys are always keeping things from me.”“It's not my fault.” She replied and Audrey fell back on the couch.“It's okay, you will know with time.”“With time? I am going back to New York in days, I am just here because you told me to come.” Audrey said and Chloe sighed.“You know Damien and Derek are not on good terms and it's worst now because you haven't agreed to do the test, you really have to do it so everything will be... ““It's Damien’s child, Chloe, you know that and Derek also knows that.” “I know but you just have to do it so everything will get settled.”“Fine, we will do the test tomorrow.” She mumbled and Chloe smiled.“It's late already, you should get some rest, it's going to be a long day tomorrow.” “Yeah.”*********THE NEXT DAYAudrey
“Nothing.” He suddenly said after spacing out.“What? You looked like you were about to tell me something.”“Yeah, I changed my mind.” He replied and Audrey scoffed. “Come on, you have got to tell me. At least tell me why you were attracted to an adult that looks like me when you were just ten.”“Attracted? I wasn't attracted to her. I just loved her.” He replied and Audrey rolled her eyes.Her phone suddenly rang and she brought it out of her jacket’s pocket, she smiled seeing it was Kevin and she picked up the call.“Hey, Kevin.” She called placing the phone at her ear.“Ma’am, do you need me to come get you? Are you okay?”“I am fine Kevin, you can head back to the hotel, I will meet you there later.”“Are you sure ma’am, I... ““Bye, Kevin.” She cut him off and ended the call.“You should leave.” Damien said and sat on the couch.“Sure, I will leave.”“Good.” “After you fall asleep.” She added and sat beside him, he gave her a questioning look and she smiled.“Come on, hold me
“Do you know what you are saying?” Damien asked and she nodded.“I don't think you do. I am so annoyed that you moved on and if I want to punish you for it, I am going to want to hit you and you want that?” He asked moving closer to her.“Yes.” She replied and gulped.“Well, luck for you, you are pregnant. You are still leaving when your order gets here.”“I don't want to leave.” “This is the one thing wrong with you. You are weak and you fall for every guy’s charm, you don't even know what you want.” He said and Audrey looked at him surprised.“Don't say that to me.” “I will say it to you because you are confused. You are getting married to someone you met weeks ago, how dumb is that?”“Are you for real? You married me the same day you kidnapped me.”“Well, I have known you for two years.”“What about me? I didn't know you and you gave me no choice.” She replied and Damien ran his hands through his hair and moved away from her a little bit.“Okay, let me ask you something. All you
LOS ANGELESDAYS LATEREveryone waited patiently for Damien to show up at the hospital so the doctor can announce who the child belongs to, Audrey’s heart kept racing and she feared the child could be Derek’s. She hasn't seen Damien or talked to him since she left his house the other day, Chloe has been visiting the hotel to keep her company. They were all gathered in the waiting room with the doctor and expecting Damien, he walked in a few minutes later and Audrey sighed in relief.“Where the hell have you been? We have been waiting... ““Please Dad, that doesn't matter now, at least he is here now so let’s just get this over with.” Derek cut his father off and everyone agreed.“Please.” Mrs. Robbin said to the doctor urging him to make the announcement.“Okay, thank you all for coming and... ““Just fucking tell us who owns the child.” Derek snapped and he flinched.“Right, I am sorry.” He muttered opening the folded paper with him.“Okay, so after the test that I conducted three
NEW YORK CITYMANY WEEKS LATERAudrey watched Alex as she felt scared, she stood by the door and watched him as he kept scattering the files on his table in the study.“Ah!” He yelled and she flinched, she hit the vase next to her and it fell to the floor, it shattered and he turned to her immediately.“What the hell are you doing here?” He yelled at her and she flinched again, her eyes widen in shock and she felt her heart start to race. Alex has never yelled at her before!“I... I... I am so sorry, I... “ She stuttered with tears rushing into her eyes.“Fuck.” Alex whispered before walking to her, he got to her and she took a step back in fear.“Come on, I’m sorry.” Alex groaned and pulled her to himself, her stomach was becoming big and less comfortable for both of them to be closer to each other.“Yeah, I know, you... you are upset and... “ She trailed off bursting into tears and Alex groaned.“Ugh! What have I done?” He muttered and moved his hand from her waist and place it on
“Okay, lie down miss.” The doctor said to Audrey and she nodded nervously, she slowly lay on the bed and the female doctor lifted her cloth exposing her stomach.“Okay, I am going to apply this on your stomach, it's going to be a little bit cold.” She instructed and Audrey breathed sharply. “Will it hurt?” She asked in fear and she smiled ad Audrey.“No, it won't okay? Is there anyone around you lately?”“Yeah, just my finance.” “Oh, why didn't you... ““He is not the father of the child.” Audrey caught the doctor off and she paused.“Oh, I’m sorry about that. Can I ask a question though?” She asked putting the gel on Audrey’s stomach and she shivered because of how cold it was. “Yeah, go on.” She replied sharply.“I am just wondering why one of the most successful businesswomen in New York City is doing at a local hospital and not the standard one.” She said and Audrey looked at her surprised.“You know me?”“Of course, everyone knows Alex Parker’s fiance and you were once married
