HER UNEXPECTED PREGNANCY

DANNIE'S POV

I woke up to the sound of someone knocking on my door. Glancing at my clock, I saw that it was only 6 am and my meeting wasn't until later, so I wanted to go back to sleep.

But the knocking persisted.

I groaned and covered my head with my pillow, hoping they would go away.

The knocking continued.

"URGH!" I muttered as I got up and opened the door, annoyed at being woken up so early.

"I SAID, WAKE UP DANNIE!" the person shouted in my ear.

I jumped at the sudden loud noise and saw that it was my grandmother, grinning at me.

"What are you doing here so early in the morning, Grandma?" I asked, still groggy from sleep as I made my way to the kitchen for some coffee.

"I want a grandchild, Dannie," she said, a serious look on her face.

I nearly choked on my coffee at her statement. "Grandma, I don't have time for that," I told her, exasperated.

"But what about that girl at Hilton's party last month?" she asked, a hint of disappointment in her voice.

I regretted telling her about that night. "Enough, Grandma. Just drop it," I said softly, not wanting to upset her.

She fell silent and didn't say anything else as I finished my breakfast and got ready for my meeting.

As I arrived at the meeting, I greeted everyone there but kept to myself, still annoyed at my grandmother's earlier visit. I couldn't believe she had come to my house and pressured me to find a wife just so she could have a grandchild. It was infuriating.

As I walked into the meeting room, I noticed a woman carrying folders and papers on the ground when she walked. She looked familiar, but I couldn't recall where is see her. 

I continued walking until she stumbled and fell. Without thinking, I rushed to her side and helped her up. As I looked at her face up close, I recognized her immediately.

"It's you," She said, surprised.

Before I could say anything else, she passed out in my arms. I didn't even know her name, but I knew I had to help her.

"Take her to the nearest hospital," I told my assistant as I carefully handed the woman over to him.

"Update me," I commanded before he left to make sure she was okay.

The meeting went on without any further incidents, but my mind was preoccupied with thoughts of the woman I had just helped. I couldn't shake the feeling that I knew her from somewhere.

Suddenly, my phone rang, interrupting my thoughts.

"Excuse me, if you don't mind?" I said to everyone in the meeting, who nodded in agreement.

I answered the call from my assistant, who informed me that the woman was pregnant.

I was in shock. There was no way she could be pregnant with my child. I had never even thought about being a father.

In my anger, I hung up on my assistant mid-sentence, not caring what anyone thought. I knew I had to go to the hospital and find out what was going on.

As I boarded the way to the hospital, I couldn't help but feel conflicted. Was I happy that I was going to have a child? Or was I annoyed that it was with someone I barely knew and didn't want to have a child with her?

When I arrived at the hospital, I practically ran to the woman's room, my heart pounding in my chest. I was nervous about what I would find.

As I paced back and forth in front of her room door, I saw a nurse come out, followed by my grandmother.

I was surprised to see her there, but then again

Unlike this morning, he smiled widely at me. Why was he here? How did he know? No wonder she's the de facto head of our family businesses.

“Dannie, I'm glad you're here,” he said as he approached me and embraced me.

I had been worried about her when I saw her looking out the window, lost in thought.

Grandma had separated from me.

“Anastasia, sweetheart. Dannie has arrived, and he is the father of your child,” she told her. 

Your name is still Anastasia.

Grandma caught her attention, so she looked at us. Her eyes had no discernible emotion. I couldn't read what she had in mind.

“Grandma, I don't believe this is the appropriate moment for this,” I told her.

I could see in his eyes that he had never had to talk about this before.

“Don't tell me what I should or should not say Dannie,” he snapped.

I just sighed. I looked at Anastasia again, but she continued to look out the window.

I shrugged and sat on the side of her bed my feet were getting tired from standing at the meeting I had just come from.

"I understand that we're both surprised by what's happened, but it doesn't bother me. I've made up my mind. Dannie, let's keep the child and marry Anastasia," she smiled, but she said it in the wrong way.
