The Billionaire's Unwanted Bride

Chapter 29

Aidan's POV

After Damien left, I could no longer concentrate on my work. I tried doing something else to wave the

distraction away but nothing was working.

My mind kept drifting to what happened between Damien and me and our conversation. I tried

Madeline's number to ask why she missed the appointment but it wasn't going through. She was a

middle-aged woman of 50 and not just a business partner but also a friend. She has businesses in

Greece and we have a partnership with one of her car companies.

I already told Tristan when he came to my office to help me with the truth about Anna's baby paternity.

He said it wasn't going to be possible unless the lady was present in the hospital for the prenatal

diagnosis to be carried out on her. I want to be sure of everything before taking her to my mother.

I don't want to raise my mother's hope in vain and I know I will let Anna go once it is confirmed that the All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

baby isn't mine, I have no business with her anymore.

I told Tristan to go to the hospital where she was taken to the previous week when she was sick and he

said it won't be possible either. I felt the doctor would know the truth about the baby's paternity but

Tristan insisted that the diagnosis has to be carried out on her.

I know I have to meet with Anna then, to persuade her to go with me to mother and to go to the hospital

with Tristan and me, if my attention will be needed. Since it is past noon already and I am practically

doing nothing, I decide to visit Annabelle. I hope she will be home.

My eyes fall on the sheet of paper that contains the address of their home and after a moment of

twirling my chair around idly, I pick it up and get up.

I take long strides towards the door and move out. Chloe raises her head from her desk at that moment

when I am out. She stands up with fear.

"I'm sorry, boss", she apologizes with sincerity. I am wondering why she is apologizing when I

remember it is because of Damien.

"I'm sorry about that woman and for letting Sir Damien come in without your permission, please forgive

me, sir", She pleads with me, clutching her hands together.

"It's ok", I am not mad at her. I move closer.

"Thank you, sir", she smiles.

"About the lady", I say. "let her in without any questioning when next she comes here."

"Ok, sir", she responds obediently.

"What about sir Damien?" She asks.

"Try not to let him in but if he is proving difficult, let him be so he won't hurt you. I know how to handle

him. I will place a restraining order on him soon." I utter.

I know Damien is capable of hurting anyone that crosses his path and hurting my secretary is one of

the few things he can do within a twinkle of an eye.

"Alright, sir."

I throw my office keys at her. She catches it immediately. "Cancel all the appointments for the rest of

the evening and in case I am not back by 4 pm, lock my office and come before me tomorrow morning.

If you are one minute late, consider yourself fired." I say to her.

"Yes, sir", she answers sharply. I move out.

Anna's POV

I just resumed school today and Pamela drives me to school. I am happy we have just two classes

today and by noon, I am already home looking for something to eat.

I barely see mom these days and I wonder if it is work or something else. From the way Pamela

described what the job mother does for her father is all about, I feelll it doesn't look like a stressful job,

unlike the former job where she has to stay awake all night and get nothing but peanut salaries and

several harassments.

I am glad she accepted the job. A lot has changed in just a week of starting work with Pamela's father.

We now have enough milk in the house and other groceries, unlike when we always run out of

groceries and have to go shopping late for groceries every week.

My cravings have started. Since I became sick, I took a liking to taking milk every morning. Now I take

milk almost every time I perceive a smell or see something that shares the same features with milk. I

am sure it is because we have enough milk in the house now.

I saw Tony in school today and he ignored me, pretending like he didn't stalk me a few days ago. I

wonder why he keeps ignoring me when it's apparent that he still likes me.

Being pregnant isn't a disease and I see no reason why we can't be friends despite being pregnant. He

likes me and I think I like him too, even though I was playing hard to get at first. I was just being careful

so I won't fall into the hands of another unfaithful and disloyal boyfriend like Cameron. I know Cameron

was a cheat but I remained faithful, hoping he would change someday.

Cameron taught me all I needed to learn about sex life. He took my virginity and made me feel like the

most beautiful woman on earth. My love for him increased tenfold after that night. We have sex almost

every night when we are alone.

Even though my mother doesn't like him, she allows him to come over to the house, most especially

whenever she isn't around.

We once had sex in my room and the first few days after the breakup, I kept dreaming of having him

back in my bed and in my arms.

He usually picks me up from home to school while Pamela drives me home sometimes but I haven't

seen him in school since we broke up. We aren't in the same department and I heard rumors that he

asked for a transfer to Chicago. I don't know how true it is but not seeing him for more than three

months has proved that to be a fact.

I think less of him now. I have finally closed his chapter and I am willing to open a fresh page of my life

and write my story from now henceforth.

I don't want to push myself on any man again. That was the mistake I made with Cameron. Cameron

had been acting strange and distant for more than a year but I ignored it and kept pushing myself on

him, trying to do things to make him happy even when I am not happy and keeping late nights for him,

whenever he was finding it hard to sleep at night.

All of this is gone now. It is time to start a new life. With or without any man but with my baby. I am

waiting patiently for her to come to the world and turn things around for me.

With or without her father, I am ready to nurture her to become a better person, not like me because I

have made wrong decisions in my life, of which the mistake of having sex with my baby's father is the

only one I do not regret, even though at first, I regretted it because of our financial status and what

people will think of me.

But now I do not care what people would say. I do not care whether the father accepts the baby or not.

I do not care whether men like Tony will keep ignoring me like I don't exist because I am pregnant and

they don't want people to think they are responsible for another man's baby if they get close to me.

I do not care if Cameron gets to know I am pregnant with another man's child. I do not care what he

thinks and what he will call me when he gets to know that I conceived in just a week after we broke

things up.

Everybody can go to hell for all I care, except my mother, my baby, my best friend, and nobody else. I

am now a new person, trying to rectify the mistakes of my past, the mistake of loving the wrong person.

I am starting a new chapter of my life today and I hope it brings me nothing that has to do with pain,

hurt, and betrayals anymore. I am hoping it will bring me a good life and nothing short of happiness

because I deserve happiness.
