The Deserted Wife Chapter 16
Several months later, Audrey’s life was better than she expected. She lived in peace, away from the stressful situation she had to go through during her pregnancy. Despite Shane’s absence, she was able to survive the hard days. Well, not completely though. She had yet to give birth and it would be the most challenging part. With her mother-in-law’s constant support, each day passed quickly with Audrey sighing in relief. Her priorities were clear. Aside from herself, her baby’s life was the most important.“Have a safe trip, Mom.” Audrey waved her right hand as she bid goodbye to her mother-in-law who was leaving for another country to attend a very important business meeting. “Don’t forget to eat your meals on time,” she added as she rubbed her baby bump.“Oh, Hija. Stop worrying about me and just think of yourself and the baby. Don’t hesitate to tell the butler if you need anything, alright? I’ll be back in no time,” the elderly woman said and gave the pregnant woman a peck on the che
The Deserted Wife Chapter 17
The pain increased by the second while Audrey bit her lower lip to suppress her cries. She was breathless and unable to talk as she adapted to tunnel vision, giving her best to focus on the labor and get the baby out. She was lucky to survive the impact when she suddenly stopped the car but a bigger problem was coming her way. Her lower body felt like it was going to rip off. It was the thought in her head that the baby’s safety depended on her that made Audrey’s will stronger. She was aware that nobody was there to help other than herself, or so she thought. Amid the excruciating pain, Audrey heard a familiar voice calling out to her. She wanted to see who it was but got no time to spare. She kicked her legs and held tightly onto the wheel with her left hand while the other was waiting in between her legs in case the baby’s head came out. It wasn’t how Audrey imagined she would give birth. Of all places, she had to deliver while squatting on the driver’s seat in her car. Blood flowed
The Deserted Wife Chapter 18
Audrey opened her eyes when she heard loud sirens and people muttering around her. Her vision was blurry thus she couldn’t guess where she was. Audrey hoped she was in the hospital though, laying on the stretcher while the people around were either doctors or nurses who could help her. She felt exhausted and drowsy, making her want to go back to sleep. Her eyes widened all of a sudden at the realization that she wasn’t holding anything. ‘Where’s the baby?’ She asked in her head. Her expression worsened when the noise around her got louder. Audrey knew she had to ask someone about her baby but groans were the only ones coming out of her mouth. Before she could even speak a word to inquire, Audrey subconsciously closed her eyes again. “Excuse me, she’s awake,” a deep voice said amid the noises. “The patient is awake. She’s still alive! Do something, quick!” “Sir, I know you’re worried but don’t be upset. We’re going to do our best to save her. Now, if you’ll excuse us. You’re not allo

Audrey woke up to the voices talking around her. She unfolded her eyes and slowly let her vision adjust to the brightness. Her body felt heavy as well as her head. But a certain part of her body was definitely aching more than the rest. A groan escaped her mouth when she tried to move a little. “You’re awake,” a familiar voice resounded through the room. “Give me a sec. I’ll call the doctor.” Before Audrey could say something, Tristan turned his back on her. She held her head while making a painful expression. “What’s going on… That was Tristan Reid…” She was collecting her thoughts together when something struck her mind. “My baby!” Audrey abruptly sat down while rubbing her tummy. “No, I’m sure he came out before I passed out… I need to find him,” Audrey muttered to herself and forcibly removed the tubes from her body. She felt a throbbing pain between her legs and head but it didn’t stop her from leaving the bed. She was already at the door and was about to open it when someone el

The doctor was surprised by Audrey’s question. His expression changed when he realized he might have said something wrong. He decided to ask upfront to confirm what he had in mind and avoid any further misunderstanding. “Isn’t the man who came with you here your husband” The doctor smiled slightly while waiting for Audrey’s reply. Sighing, Audrey faked a smile and shook her head. “Not him,” she mumbled. “We’re just acquaintances so I hope you don’t misunderstand anything. I’d feel bad if he’s burdened about it too,” Audrey added. “Yes,” the doctor responded. “I got it. I apologize for my mistake,” he said and started checking his chart. “I shouldn’t have assumed things,” he added after raising his head to look at Audrey’s eyes. “That’s okay. The misunderstanding has been cleared now,” Audrey said and smiled. “So, can you please tell me more about my current condition?” She changed the subject, going back to their previous topic about the baby. “I’d love to see my son as soon as poss

Tears swelled in Audrey’s eyes as she watched the nurse walking toward her bed with the baby in her arms. Her baby! The pain and worries she had in mind seemed to disappear while looking at the little angel whom she birthed to.“I’m glad you’re feeling better now. Here’s your baby,” the nurse said with a wide smile on her face, sharing the joy with Audrey for having the chance to look at the precious life she was born just recently. “He’s so cute. Albeit he’ll grow up to be a charismatic man,” the nurse complimented as she successfully handed the infant into Audrey’s arms.“Yes,” Audrey agreed, letting the baby’s tiny hands hold her finger. “Yes. He’s my baby, can you believe it? I’m a mother now,” she mumbled in tears. Despite the warm tears streaming down her face, Audrey’s mind was clear. For a moment, she didn’t want to think about anything else in the world but her baby.“Congratulations,” the nurse said. Her smile never faded. “Did you think of a name?”Nodding her head, Audrey

“Abububu~ Wah!”Audrey’s eyebrows formed a fine straight line while watching Nathan make faces in front of her son. She wasn’t saying anything because the baby seemed to enjoy it, chuckling at Nathan’s comical expressions. However, a part of Audrey wanted to smack her friend for taking all her baby’s attention.“If eyes could kill, he’d be dead anytime soon.”“Huh?” Audrey turned to her side to find Tristan, shrugging at her. “You’re still here,” she said, wondering why he didn’t leave yet when her friends were already there. She also let the butler know so a maid or two would be sent to bring her things to the hospital. “Should I leave?” Tristan checked his watch and frowned.“What’s wrong?” Audrey asked when he saw how the guy’s expression changed.Tristan raised his eyebrows and shook his head. “I can’t,” he mumbled, looking a bit pitiful. “It’s late. I could use the couch over here if you don’t mind.”“No, you should leave. Go home,” Audrey said firmly. She couldn’t tell what Tr

A gentle baby laugh filled the room, bringing joy to everyone who quietly cheered as the newly born continued to make pleasant sounds in his mother’s arms.“Hija, let me hold Asher too. You’ve been holding him in your arms for a while now. Maybe it’s time for me to hold him as well,” Mrs. Vargas told her daughter-in-law who was head over heels for her baby. “Have you eaten yet? Breakfast must be ready. I know how you feel but you wouldn’t be so stingy not to let me hold my grandson, would you?”Audrey laughed. “Mom, it’s not like that,” she said. In fact, Audrey didn’t feel like letting go of the baby. Even her arms felt numb and her back arched, she just couldn’t put the baby down to rest even a little. “Alright. Here’s baby Asher. I will need to eat something before you’d start nagging at me again. He’s so full of energy so you might want to put him down if you get tired.” Audrey carefully let her mother-in-law carry her grandson in her arms. “I’ll go wash my face for a sec,” she sa
