CHAPTER 122She was surprised at first at the fact that she was getting a call, when the caller ID had popped up with Laura name a glee look had creeped over Tonia.At that moment she was filled with uncertainty on if to pick or just let things slide, she was unaware of what to do or if she should just act like she hadn't seen the call.Still there was that bit of conviction in her heart implying that she did pick up her call, a smirk crawled up her face, as she walked back to the two people sitting close to where she was looking up at her.Antonia motioned to them that she was going to take a minute before picking. “Why are you calling, though you had him to yourself. . " She spoke quickly, waking out on the terrace.Images played out again at the back of her mind and this time she couldn't help it , all she did was stand still in silence reminiscing the moment she had walked out. The smile seemed to fade away as she stared up to the sky, shouldn't time heal the deepest wounds… sh
CHAPTER 123She opened her eyes and all she could was hope that all of these would work out just fine, he was still trying to make all the situation better than it seemed, but at that moment it was going to be very difficult for her to understand.In a way her gaze turned to the gray light of the early morning that had begun to make its way through the room.At that moment, she sighed … Antonia was nowhere to be found at that moment and it gave more time to reflect on things.At the Moment her fingers lazily draw circles on the sheet while she watches his still closed eyes, and she sighs against him, content. Sometime in the night she had slipped her hands around him and imagined how they spoon with his arms wrapped tightly around her.It all felt different now and it was difficult for her to understand why she was feeling that way, for all that it was worth she wished to herself that all of these had to be happening fast. Her mind is quiet and she’s at peace but yet without him,
CHAPTER 124As the giant clock on the wall in hospital hallway ticked closer to midday, Laura felt tension crawling under her skin. She took a breath and shifted in her seat, feeling a invisible ache in her buttocks. Her breaths came out forcefully out her throat, filling her nose with heat. She swallowed hard as she clenched her fist and rested leaned into the chair. A million thoughts were racing through her mind but when she closed her eyes to relieve herself, something silly happened. An image of her laying naked in bed with Christian flashed across her mind and she blushed. Heat rushed to her cheeks, a tingling sensation spread between her thighs as excitement made her heart thrummed heavily between her breasts. She missed him— his adventurous hands, tasty lips, warm skin and strong chest. But there he was, lying between the Rubicon, neither alive nor dead, his existence hanging by a fraying thread. "You are a fool Laura," she cursed underneath her breath, rising from the
CHAPTER 125It was a moment of absolute silence, the two occupants of the room , both dazed, stared at each other briskly for the next few seconds but had followed.For Antonia she was trying to Process it all at once and it felt so difficult as her soul was filled with so many questions at that moment, should she run?It was most definitely the last thing she wanted to do but the more she stood there watching him, the more she felt that need to do something so badly.“Antonia." He called her name again.This time it was crystal clear that she wasn't thinking about it. In her head, his eyes were right there wife open and all she could think about was the blood running through her veins at an insane speed.For the other —Christian, all of these were a bit harder to process, he was in a state of uncertainty confused of what to do or rather what to say. He tried playing all the events at the back of his mind slowly, what could he remember? It was difficult processing all at once when
CHAPTER 126Momentarily, she wakes up with a start. She was consumed by anxiety as she tried playing it all back at that moment, as soon as Laura had woken up she had looked around to the clock..Damn fuck. A very important fact she’d missed earlier suddenly struck her mind, she thought about how long she had been asleep for and groaned heavily.“You’re late Laura.” She whispered the last word to herself as she hurried out of bed and nearly came to look at herself in the mirror.She was in a bit of rush, doing all she could to get back to the hospital as fast as he could -The entire environment had a combination of wicked humor and unbridled desire that crept through her soul.“You couldn't Wake me up." He muttered.She was a bit furious, Riley met her there at the moment and she was furious as well. She was walking and putting on her shoes as she made way out.“Just arrived here as well, had to get the boys ready." " Oh that , are they on their way? ““Yeah, Damien is going to dro
CHAPTER 127"You seem to be responding to treatments well" the doctor commented as he picked Christian's hand to check for his pulse. "In a day or two you will should be out of here,up and running like nothing ever happened" While Christian managed to force a smile in response to the doctor's compliments, Antonia's heart was palpitating with anxiety. At long last, she would have what she'd always desired, Christian would be hers. The longer the doctor tarried in his check up, the more she grew impatient, wishing she could grab him by the collar and push him out of the room. "Has your appetite returned or shall I send a nurse in to check you" "Christian is fine sir," Antonia cut in impatiently, "he only needs to take a nap or don't you?" "Yes doctor," Christian answered slowly, smiling as a feeling of warmth engulfed him. He'd never imagined how happy he could actually be with Antonia in his life. "Very well then Mr Christian," the doctor said, heading for the door, "you should
Chapter 01(This book will mostly be in a third person's pov, but in some necessary situations, there will be a first-person pov)*****Staff members bowed as Christian strode into his company, exuding an air of elegance and confidence. His tailored suit accentuated his tall, well-built frame, and he moved with graceful authority down the hallway, his manager walking alongside him.They entered the elevator, their synchronized steps reflecting the harmony of their working relationship. Damien, Christian's manager, received a discreet message on his phone, prompting a change in his demeanor. As the elevator ascended, he discreetly checked his phone, his expression shifting into a surprised "o.""What's the matter?" Christian inquired, his gaze straight ahead, unyielding."Um... someone is waiting for you in your office, sir," Damien replied with a respectful bow."Who?" Christian asked, his attention still focused ahead."Miss Gracias," Damien answered. Christian's eyebrow arched sligh
Chapter 02*At The Hospital*They were all seated in a ward, with two boys who look slightly identical and clinged to their mom, Laura. They were the kids, the one that happened a night six years ago.Christian hadn't taken his eyes off them as he stared with a blank expression. No one knew what he was thinking, he was capable of not showing emotions.Someone walking into the ward made them all snap to reality as they looked up to see if it was who they were expecting and yeah, it was him, the doctor who had just taken some blood samples of the twins.Laura only raised her head and Christian only unfolded his arms while Riley and Damien looked ready and impatient."Well, Mr Asher.." He turned to Christian."The test came out positive sir, the blood samples matched with yours, they're your sons" He said and the two managers sighed in relief and non-relief simultaneously (you know who did which right?) Laura silently released a breath she didn't know she had been holding while Christian
