42: emergency!
Aria felt the sharp pain before she woke up. It felt like needles were punching holes in her stomach. She groaned softly at first, thinking it was just a mild pain and it would definitely fade off. She took a deep breath, turning over to the other side, attempting to go back to sleep. The stinging sensation descended on her again, paralyzing her legs and as she groaned this time around, she knew it wasn't an ordinary pain.
The darkened room and the excruciating pain made it feel like the pain was swallowing her whole and she was being hurled out of this world. The shadows in front of her merged into lines of horror that threatened to coil itself around her body. As much as she wanted to get rid of this sharp pain, she also wanted to see past these blurry figures. She jabbed the night lamp on, jerked up and the shadows were nothing. She looked over to her side, even with the force which she hoisted herself up, Anna didn't even stir. She was a deep sleeper.The paiRelated chapters
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 43: apologies!
Harry could not believe that his father was smiling with Robert. He thought that he'd be angry at him because of the way he had sounded during dinner. It was shocking to have seen the both of them looking happy. When he had greeted his father, he had regarded them briefly before he fixed his gaze on Robert again. That hurt him deeply. He felt invisible, and he knew he was going to be like that for a while unless he broke the chain, tore the cloak, surrounding him. He knew had to act fast. He had to do something concerning Robert. He had to look into his marriage like it had occurred to him. His phone buzzed, dragging him from his thoughts. He stretched his hands to retrieve it, his gaze slid to the caller ID. It was his mother. His eyes flew wide at the reason she could be calling. She rarely called him while she was away from home. Even when she was home, they rarely talk so he couldn't help but wonder what would make her call him. His guesses was that she wanted to talk Bryan or her
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 44: waiting
Ivan and Anna were at the reception, anxiously waiting for any news about Aria. Anna sat on the chair, shaking her legs, tapping her fingers on her thighs, and muttering words of prayer, while Ivan paced around with ragged breaths as though his own life depended on Aria being well. Anna's gaze zeroed in on him, and she wondered why he had cheated on her sister and if he really cared about her. She took a deep breath and wrung her fingers together as she continued praying.Just then, the doctor walked towards her, and she sprung to her feet and scurried in his direction. The bespackled man, with a hint of scruff, pursed his lips together and stared at both of them."How's she?" They asked in unison, their panic merging into each other and thickening the tension. The air was stiff."She's currently sleeping."Anna heaved a sigh of relief. "Thank God."A small smile graced his lips. "You guys must have been so worried about Aria. Don't worry, she'll be fine."The doctor knew Anna and her
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 45: the reveal
Anna entered the room swiftly and banged the door shut as if she thought Ivan would wiggle himself past with the little space. The moment she bolted the door shut, she pressed her back against the door and took a deep breath. She sighed, exhaustion coursing through her. The information she had heard a few minutes ago had weakened her, and she felt like she needed to make the world pause for a second so she could catch her breath. She felt sorry for her sister, and she wondered how she would react when she found out about everything the doctor had said. From losing her baby to Gavin fibrosis. For some reasons, she chose to stick to the belief that her sister was aware of the pregnancy, whether or not she'd have told her. It just didn't make sense that Aria could hide such information from her. It just wasn't possible. Aria stirred on the bed, raising her hands upwards, but she stopped when she noticed that something (an IV) was attached to her hands. Anna walked towards taking a seat b
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 46: call in sick
Aria stared straight ahead, even though it looked like she could not see anything and was far out of his world. "I wish it were a dream." She told Anna, and she kept quiet as she kept on thinking about how the baby would have added to her life. She didn't know how to grieve because it felt weird, firstly, that a baby wasn't growing inside of her, and she didn't until she was gone. She didn't know how to cry, even if she felt like that was what she was supposed to do. She felt unworthy to grieve crazily for someone she wasn't attached to, yet she felt somehow incomplete, like she had lost an old friend. She sighed, thinking about how things would have turned out differently. She would have likely not made her choice yet about whether she should tell Robert that she was carrying his baby, or maybe if he had found out through the doctor at the hospital, she'd have wanted to keep the baby, but eventually she'd have felt the need to run away from him with her baby, and he'd not have heard
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 47: the visit
The moment Robert entered his car and turned the key in his ignition, he felt his heart beat faster. One, they hadn't spoken in a while, and two, he didn't know how she was going to react when she saw him. He hoped she was fine; that was what he cared about now. Even though there was a rift between the two of them, he couldn't help but think about her and show his concern for her by showing up at the hospital. He breathed out as he turned off the ignition and got out of the car.With each stride he took towards the door, he longed to see her oval face and how she was doing.At the reception, surprisingly, he spotted Ivan, his former personal assistant, who had told him he was out of Las Vegas. He was pacing around the room, like he was in a critical condition, and he halted on his tracks, eyes wide, when he saw him."What are you doing here?" Robert asked him, bewildered.He scratched his hair and blinked as if the beads of sweat pearled at the top of his forehead and rolled into his
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 48: Reconciliation
When they stepped inside, Aria's eyes flew towards the door and she saw the two people she didn't believe would ever be standing side by side standing."Robert," she called out softly, surprised, examining his appearance. He was dressed in signature all black fit. "What are you doing here?" She asked, completely ignoring Ivan as though he wasn't standing near Robert. She wished Anna hadn't called him yesterday, all she wanted to do was to return his freaking money back to him so he doesn't see any means to creep back in to her life. He can be with Lily for all he wants, he disgusted her."I just wanted to see you." He blurted out, now feeling excitement bubble Within him because she hasn't responded harshly and coldly towards him and the way the Ivan had quickly faded into the background because how their two looked like the main character of the movie slightly brought joy to his heart but ofcourse he wasn't going to say that out loud.Before Aria could say another word, Ivan quickly
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 49: with Robert
"so about Ivan," Robert started and Aria's body stilled, wondering what he wanted to talk about concerning Ivan because he didn't know him."Hm?" She adjusted her position on the bed, staring at him intently."So, he was my personal assistant I told you about." Robert informed her.She struggled to make sense of the words and she knew for a fact that he wasn't joking. So Ivan had worked closely with Robert? Meaning Elanne should know him. She thought about asking Elanne few questions about Ivan and then she decided against it, he wasn't worth it."Oh." She simply said. "I wasn't aware." Then she shrugged."I know." He nodded. She wondered the kind of conversation Robert and Ivan had had before they walked into the room and whether Ivan had tried to say anything to him that may have given him second thoughts about her."He's my ex," she voiced out, the words feeling odd in her mouth."I- observed." He stuttered. "He made it quite obvious." As they talked, she noticed that their sentenc
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 50: reveal
"Are you good through?" Robert's question was cut short by the bolting ot the door and their eyes flew eagerly to see who was coming in. It was a doctor and a nurse. The doctor has grey eyes that were barely hiden under his see through ash glasees and she had seen the smiley nurse before she had given her an injection when she woke up."Afternoon," the doctor greeted her and the nurse simply smiled at her"Afternoon, Doctor.""I'm glad to see that you've regained your strength by now. If you had lost a little more blood, you'd have require a blood transfusion I may ask to he sure. How are you doing?""I'm fine, thank you." Aria's heart had started beating fast. She knew Robert would soon hear the news of her miscarriage but it won't be free from her but from the doctor and it would seem like she was deliberately hiding it from him.Robert squeezed her palm assuredly like he always did that day when she was at the dineer and reflectively she withdrew. He stared at her without saying a
