"Get away from me, you arrogant man," Isabella screamed and immediately regretted the action as she felt a slight pain in her stomach. That reminded her of what had happened earlier and she held Seth's arm immediately, forgetting her hatred for him. "Please tell me my baby is fine." She pleaded with him.The first thought on Seth's mind was to make her pay for her rude behavior towards him. But then, he remembered that she could fall into another panic mood and truly lose the baby. This means that he would forever remain fatherless. According to the doctor who had attended to him at the time he had the accident, he had only a 10% chance of ever healing and fathering a child. Which means no chance at all to him."You're fine and so is the baby. Just stop screaming because I hate it." He finally answered her. He watched as she relaxed visibly and he scoffed. What was the score with her anyway?"Now that that is out of the way, can you get out of my room?" Isabella hissed at him.Just as
Isabella had spent almost a week at the hospital and not once had she seen the man who claimed to want his baby. While she was grateful for his absence, she thought about how badly that reflected on the man if she was to judge him by his words and actions. Besides, why was he suddenly back after almost seven months? Where had he been since then? Why hadn't he bothered about the sperm? Why now of all times? The more she thought about it, the more confused she got about the whole situation.One thing she knew however was the fact that she was sure the man would be back. If not soon, then it would be later. She has to find a way to keep herself and her baby away from him."Who knows if he didn't come because he already knew how long I would be here?" She asked herself."Who are you talking about?"The sudden voice startled Isabella and she looked up out of fear. She relaxed when she saw that it was only the female doctor who had been taking care of her."Good afternoon." She greeted the
Seth Allen walked into Benson's IVF clinic with a huge smile pasted on his face. Yes, he was happy because he finally came to the best decision that would make the stubborn woman give his child to him as soon as she gives birth. He petted the cheque for three million dollars in his chest pocket and smiled again.Nate might think that the woman was stubborn and had no price or ways to make her submit but he didn't think that was. Every poor person out there has a price and that price is always money. It just depends on the individual to know the price that could bring them to their feet.He knew how true that thought of his was since this was not the first time he had gone through the same route to have his wish done. And at all the other times, those people had let go of whatever integrity they had and they had accepted the deal he brought to them. So, why wouldn't she?"Let me see how she refuses to accept this cheque that would forever change her generation." He muttered to himself j
Isabella felt lighter now that she didn't have to be tense, thinking about the appearance of the man called Seth. She chuckled loudly as she thought about how he would be fuming from his mouth the moment he realized she had disappeared from him. The way he would feel knowing that she had just cut him off from her baby's life permanently.As if her baby shared in the joke, she felt a kick."I know, right? Honey, that man is just plain stupid." She rested her hands on her tummy as she spoke."Why do all pregnant women do this?" A man chuckled to his walking colleague as they passed by Isabella. "Even my wife would spend hours talking to our unborn daughter."Isabella smiled to herself. Of course, pregnant women would do that since the action allowed them to feel very close to their child. It was sort of like creating a mother and child bonding moment."Especially when it's just the two of us, right?" She asked her child again and laughed when she felt another light kick.The peaceful mo
Isabella sprayed the last of her favorite perfume on the dress she was wearing, dropped the empty bottle back to the stand, and sat down on the bed with a heavy sigh."You look good, Isa. I promise," Anna assured her with a smile.No. Isabella's problem wasn't about if she looked good or not. It was about how she had reacted to the man the day before. She blushed as she remembered the incident. Anna seeing the blush mistook it for her enthusiasm."Someone's happy she is going on a date with a very handsome dude. No wonder she dressed up so beautifully and even sprayed some nice perfume." She teased the pregnant woman.Isabella rolled her eyes at her friend's words. A date, indeed. More like a field for war where there can only be one victor.After she had demanded from him what he wanted with her, he had pleaded that she meet him at a restaurant today so that they could talk about their situation and go their separate ways."We are only going to find a solution to this baby that bonds
As soon as Isabella got home, she collapsed on her bed, grateful that it wasn't one of the days when her best friend usually stayed over at the house with her. And Anna would have if she didn't have a night shift to cover at the restaurant where she worked her second job.Isabella was tired and afraid. Tired because of how adamant Seth had turned out to be about the baby and his intention of making the baby his. Afraid because she was sure he would pull through that plan of his. She might not know the man well enough but from the little time she spent with him, she could tell that he was a man who stuck to his words and made it through with his plan.She suddenly missed her mom and she wished that she was with the older woman right now. Before she could talk herself out of it, she brought out her phone and called her mother. The older woman picked the call up even before the first ring was over."Bella dear, may you live to be a thousand years. I was just thinking about you now and you
Seth walked into the headquarter of Allen & Sons corporations with a heavy sigh. As usual, it was going to be another day filled with events.From going over documents to attending meetings and luncheons with potential clients to convincing those potential clients to partner with the company.Just thinking about it makes it a little tiring for him.But Seth loved what he did. He loved seeing the company doing well. He also loved seeing that his company was putting a lot of smiles on people's faces, helping to pay their bills by giving them employment opportunities. He also loved the respect people accorded him with simply because he is the CEO of the company, and thus, a young billionaire.These days though, he was tired. No, scratch that. He was super tired. How can a single pregnant woman make him lose his wit? How was she able to evade him for some long? And he had thought that he would be able to find her even before a week was over. It was more than a month now, yet, he couldn't g
Seth's head pounded loudly as if he was being hammered by something heavy and he winced at the pain. The light flickering in from somewhere into the room, directly on his face made the headache even worse than it should. To protect his eyes from burning, he covered it with one of his arms. He remained that way for almost five minutes, bearing the pains he felt course through his system.When he couldn't take the harsh treatment of the hot sun on him anymore, he groaned and sat up. His head felt like it would explode from the little action and he took three deep long breaths to help him calm down. He managed to stagger to the bathroom and opened the water on his head just to clear his head and thoughts."Now, that's better." He said to himself after the headache subsided. He looked into the bathroom mirror with a sigh. He first noticed the baggy eyes he spotted. Next, he saw that he was not in his room or even his house since the bathroom's interior was far different from his. "Where am
