Chapter 47. Dexter's Point Of View. I was shocked by the questions Melanie asked, who does she think she is? I knew her plan, she wanted to shift the blame to Anna. She should remember her place in this house. "You are just working as a maid here, you shouldn't even be eating with us on the dining. You even have the gut to question someone who I might get married to." I shouted at her and I could see that anger in her eyes as she stared at me. She stood up from where we were and carried her plate and went out of the dining room. It wasn't long before she came back and went back upstairs. She didn't eat? I don't care anyways. "You shouldn't have shouted at her that way." Anna said as she rubbed my hand that was on the dining table. She shouldn't feel happy with the words I just said, it might happen and it may not. So she should just calm down and not keep her hopes to high. I heard the door bell ringing. "I will go and check who is there." Anna stood up as she went towards th
Chapter 48. Melanie's Point Of View. I have never felt so weak in my life this way, it looks as if I'm going to quit from my job. This is so unbearable for me. I can't even taste properly anymore, it's so annoying. I decided to take the rest of the day off as I planned on seeing the doctor. I loosed weight just between these few days and anything I eat might make me nauseous. Dexter allowed me go to after telling him the reasons why I told him I wanted to take the remaining day off. Eveth isn't really talking to me anymore? If it were to be before she would have come closer to me and starts asking me what happened to me. She will even be the one to take me to the hospital herself but it us a different case now. She looked like someone who doesn't even think I exist at all. ****** I got to the hospital and the doctor did all sort of test for me, I am currently waiting for her to call me back in. "Miss Melanie, you tests results are ready." One of the nurses informed as I ente
Chapter 49. Dexter's Point Of View. I was home already and I saw Melanie laying on the couch, what made her not to sleep inside the room? She really looked so tired. What could be wrong with her? I stood up as I walked towards her and I bent down beside her, her hair was covering her eyes already. I shifted it to the back of her hair. My hand mistakenly touched her skin as I felt her temperature, she was so cold. She shifted her body as she opened her eyes slowly and sat up immediately she saw me. "You are back. I will go and prepare dinner now." She said as she stood up. "Don't worry, I just ate before coming and I think Anna is going to eat outside." I told her as she just sighed. "Okay, I will go to my room now." She said as she climbed the stairs slowly. She has been sleeping since and she still wants to sleep? That is really unlike her. I was expecting some news from my private investigator already but he hasn't called yet, I wondered what is taking him so long. I migh
Chapter 50. Melanie's Point Of View. I woke up and I was surprised to see Dexter in my room. What is he doing? I saw a paper in his hand as I snatched it immediately, I can't believe I forget the paper in the desk. He must have saw what was written in the paper for him to start asking me different kind of questions. I decided not to answer him so that he will not suspect, I can't figure out what is on the guy's mind currently. I have been sleeping too much nowadays and it is something I can't control. I still find it unbelievable. I'm pregnant? I don't think I will be able to give birth to a child in this cruel world. I walked outside the room after I chases Dexter outside, I saw him and Anna discussing along the hallway. The two are really getting close and I am happy for them, I hope Dexter can feel the connection he has been longing to feel. I walked past as I heard Anna greeting me and that made me stop on my track. "Good morning Melanie!" She said as I just smiled at her
Chapter 51. Dexter's Point of View. "Have you seen Melanie around?" I asked Anna who was in the living room. I am just coming from the kitchen as she wasn't there, I thought she went to buy something. It has been one hour since I woke up and I haven't seen her. "No, I haven't. What happened? Is she not in her room?" She inquired. "You haven't seen her this morning or something? Maybe she went out?" I panicked. "No, I just woke up. Have you searched her room? She might still be sleeping." She suggested. I quickly ran upstairs as I went to her room but she wasn't there, her room looked empty. Where could she have gone this early morning? I opened her wardrobe as I couldn't find any clothes there, the only thing that was there was the cloth I bought for her during our company's anniversary. I looked around as I saw a paper on the desk, I went towards it as I picked it up. It was a letter. "Boss, I can finally let you rest in peace. I'm sure you will be so happy when reading this
Chapter 52. *8 Months Later* Melanie's Point Of View "Hey I am going to the mall today." I said to Jake over the phone. "I thought you bought everything last time." He reminded. "Yeah yeah, I totally forgot to get somethings." I muttered. "That is not the problem here, you need to rest Melanie. It will just take few months for you to give birth." He complained. I know he cares a lot about me, but he shouldn't worry I am really strong. "Once I am done at the office, I will come and pick you up." He assured me as I nodded. "You really love stressing this guy." Lily teased as I just rolled my eyes. "I want to stand up can you assist me?" I requested as I found it hard for me to get up from the flooghr. "Get up for what exactly, just call me to do anything and I will help you with it?" She offered a help. "I was thinking of changing my clothes." I suggested as she rolled her eyes. "There is nothing bad in what you are putting on." She commented. "Don't you think my baby bump
Chapter 53. Dexter's Point Of View. I swear, life has been a torture to me for the past few months. I really hated myself for trying to look for that stupid connection. "I will have to buy some stuffs for our baby." Anna said to me as she entered my room with her hands rubbing her tummy. Gosh! Not again. "You can just call my mom and she can follow you" I rejected. "No, I want you to follow me." She insisted placing her hand on her waist. Does she have to boss all around me just because she is pregnant. There is nothing I can do at this stage, I must always please her no matter what. "Okay, we are not going to spend much time." I said as she nodded. Life has always been hell for me ever since I woke up by her side one day. She claimed I raped her that night. I couldn't remember what happened, but something happened between us and I couldn't do anything about it. I just had to accept the fact that I slept with her also, then few months later she find out she was pregnant.
Chapter 54. Dexter's Point Of View. *Three Days Later.* I couldn't stop thinking about what happened at the mall, just few months left for her to give birth. I can't wait to see my children. I reached home already, I have been with Robert for the past few days and I realized I am interrupting his relationship with my presence. I just had to go back home and face what was waiting for my at home. My mom! I pressed the pin as I entered and met my mom sitting on the couch. "Good evening mom." I greeted her as I almost walked past her but she called me back. "So you now run away from home and behave like a coward?" My mom asked immediately I entered. "Coward? I can't just stand her anymore mom!" I told her as she hissed. "Then you should have held yourself before sleeping with her!" He retorted. "Sleep with her? I'm not even sure if I am the father of what is inside her? She is just despicable and there is nothing she can't do mom!" I replied as she sighed. "You are not sure
