CHAPTER 192     ADDISON’S POV         I woke up with a stretch as I checked my phone for any calls. “What the heck was happening?” I asked no one in particular. Shrugging, I checked on Adele who was still sleeping soundly. Not going to deny it, Florida has been nonstop fun for me. Going away from the troubles in North Carolina besides Florida was more interesting than there. I couldn't wait for Chloe to join us here, with her it would be very interesting.          I didn't know anyone here and it was quite boring talking to myself, Adele was just always there to chip in. I was quite angry that Chloe still wanted to do anything for Nathan. She still loves that man and It pisses me off every time. That man was trouble and didn't even deserve Chloe. After he cheated on her, I had started growing a special dislike for him. I didn't want to see him or anything that has to do wi

CHAPTER 194 CHLOE’S POV “What…?” I stuttered in confusion. “You have to be kidding!” I said to David in shock. This felt like a joke to me, I had never imagined this day will ever come. David was threatening me, he was using my daughter as a bait! “Are you willing to agree or not?” he asked quite harshly. “Are you crazy?” I screamed over the phone. “I can't believe this!” I was baffled by all that I was hearing. “I can see the safety of your child isn't pertinent to you,” he mumbled. David knew how much I cared about Adele, I was willing to do anything for my daughter. She was everything I had and I would do whatever to make her happy and safe. “You know I care about her safety, but what you are saying…” I stuttered trying to explain to David. “Just do what I asked, else forget about your daughter!” he replied. Not knowing what to say, I left my mouth wide agape. It felt surreal, David had to be joking. “Am I speaking with David?” I asked to be sure. He sounded so

CHAPTER 196 NATHAN’S POV Staring at the building that brought so many memories, I felt conflicted about what to do. Deciding to make a decision, I had no choice but to shrug. Life was a risk itself, I had to retrace my steps and find something meaningful to do apart from brooding over Chloe. I pressed the doorbell as I waited patiently like a gentleman for her arrival. It didn't take up to minutes when she opened the door ajar, her mouth widely opened as she gazed with disbelief which was soon replaced with grief. I felt bad for ignoring her all this while, Chloe was always there and I didn't realize when I forgot about Lily. She was carrying my child and the least I could do was support her. She glared at me as I stood there watching her every move. “Seriously Nathan, you left me all by myself despite my condition!” Lily shouted at me as she started crying. “Good evening baby,” I rather say with a forced smile. Why was I feeling like this wasn't right? “Get over wi

CHAPTER 198 CHLOE’S POV I heaved a long breath after the movie came to an end, I had decided to watch a movie just so I could relieve myself from all the stress. I had decided to move on, dwelling in the past wasn't going to fix anything. I wished all of this was a dream, praying silently for Nathan to call back and apologize. I was staying back in North Carolina, wishing Nathan would call back but he hadn't. He really did mean what he said, pushing the thoughts away. I decided to start packing some of my stuff. I needed to be out of this environment, even my room had turned against me. My room keeps reminding me about the last nights I and Nathan had together. His touch, kisses, everything was still fresh in my head! Trying to take it off was pointless, I couldn't stop thinking about everything. It was stuck and I had to realize how much I love Nathan. My phone vibrating loudly made me glance at the phone screen, seeing it was Addison’s number I hesitated to pi

Nathan Mahn, I had no idea labor took so fucking long. I thought I would lose my damned mind with each passing meeting, standing outside the labor room. I couldn't hear a thing unlike shit I saw in movies because the room was soundproof, but hell that was even scarier. I was terrified as hell. How was Lily doing? Now that I thought about it, her belly was pretty swollen. Could have contained four large watermelons easily. Was that normal? Ah fuck. I was doomed. I should have asked a long time ago if that was normal. She'd had to carry all that weight for some four months and dear God that's crazy stuff. If that baby pops out and grows up to have a shitty personality, I'd tan his hide! Okay, calm down Nathan, fucking breathe. If I was this anxious, then Lily must be losing her mind in there. Was this how it was for Chloe when she had Adele? A twinge of guilt in my chest made me grimace. Chloe had nobody to stay with her. I missed the birth of my daughter and missed her first two ye
