Charlotte's POV

I watched Drake until he disappeared behind the wide glass doors of the blood testing room. The door closed quietly. My hands trembled slightly as I hugged myself. My eyes stayed fixed on that door, even though I knew he was already gone.

I felt Sawyer walk up beside me. He didn’t say my name. He just stood there. Then after a moment, he finally spoke.

“That was Drake, wasn’t it?”

I nodded slowly, not trusting my voice.

Sawyer didn’t say anything else. He just let out a low hum, the way he always did when he was thinking something he didn’t want to say out loud. I didn’t push him to talk. The air between us suddenly became thick, filled with questions and disapprovals and the reminder that we were supposedto be against Drake, but I didn’t want any of them right now.

"I need to sit." I whispered and found a bench in the corridor outside the lab.

There weren’t many people around. Only a few nurses walked past every now and then. I kept sitting, then standing, then sitt

Maybe she should tell Sawyer to be grateful the blood matched instead of acting like a jerk

  • After Divorce, My Secretary Wife Becomes Rival Boss    Chapter 0216

    Drake's POV I staggered back to the living room, a gasp escaped from my lips as my hands dragged down my face."Is this real?" I didn't know what to feel. I was happy that she left on her own but at the same time, she was carrying my child. I couldn't just give that up.I made that mistake once already and even though Mia wasn't one who would make one do something for her, for the sake of the child in her belly, I couldn't just let it go.I rubbed my head with my hand and shook my feet uncontrollably.Unable to sit anymore, I rose to my feet and went to my room. I grabbed my phone and scrolled through my contacts.Maybe she went to get something. I reasoned and tried to call her. The line went silent for the first few seconds then the service provider's voice spoke up, telling me that the number I was trying to reach was not available.I groaned with frustration and tried it again but it was the same thing."Did she run out on me again?" I asked aloud."Who are you talking to?" A voi

    Drake's POV After Charlotte left, I too found my way to my car and drove home.The drive home was silent, though my head wasn’t. Thoughts churned in my head.Charlotte’s tired face haunted me. The way her voice had cracked when she admitted maybe Sawyer had never been there. I hated the helplessness in her eyes, and I hated even more that I couldn’t change it.By the time I pulled into the driveway, it was close to midnight. The mansion was dark, silent, the glow from the windows a sharp contrast to the heaviness in my chest. I killed the engine and sat there for a moment, gripping the wheel until my knuckles whitened. I knew Mia would be waiting. I could already feel the storm brewing.Sure enough, when I stepped inside, she was there.Mia sat on the couch in the living room, one hand resting dramatically on her stomach, the other draped across the armrest like a queen waiting to scold her subject. Her expression was sharp, her lips curved in displeasure.“You’re finally back,” she

    Drake's POV Charlotte walked out on me without a heads up but I knew I couldn't stop her. She was hurt and frustrated about not being able to do anything even when she saw Sawyer.I had a strong feeling that Mia had a hand in it somehow but I couldn't do anything about it either."Drake?" I heard my name from the second door; the one after the one I came out of.I turned around to see Mia walking to me like someone who was thirty-two weeks pregnant."What were you discussing with her?" She asked as she got closer."Did you know that Sawyer was going to be here today?" I asked instead, my face was straight."What?""Did you purposely step in her way so that she wouldn't be able to go after him?" I asked again and her brows furrowed in confusion and it spread in realization."Wait, was that the reason she was running around like she got an emergency call?" Mia sounded amused.My face tightened. Mia didn't see it as anything serious and that was irritating."Do you really find that funn

    Charlotte's POV "What is it Charlotte?" Drake called out as he followed me out to the empty yard.I dragged a palm down my face and rubbed my fingers on my temple."What is it?" He asked again, louder this time and even more concerned this time around."Shit! I missed him! I missed him!" I exclaimed with grief."Who? Who are you talking about? Who did you miss?""Sawyer. I missed him just now. I saw him inside the hall just when they called on the both of us. He was standing not far from me but he retreated and ran away when he saw himself on the screen and he knew I was following him so he ran even more.""He followed this door out of the hall and I wanted to follow him out but Mia blocked my way." I explained and Drake paused for some seconds."Mia? Just now?" He asked like he hadn't heard what I explained."Yes. She blocked my way and for some flimsy excuse.""Are you sure it's Sawyer you saw?" He asked again and his questions were beginning to get on my nerves"Yes. If it were no

    Charlotte's POV "Charlotte!" Drake called after me but there was no way I was turning around.I didn't come for more drama. And I didn't want to be involved in their drama. Mia was mischievous. She could have hidden camera men or even videographers positioned in specific places to take pictures and record videos that would later go viral.If she had begun to spread fake news and ensure that the news got to me, then she was planning something even bigger."Don't go after her!" I also heard Mia's sharp voice holding him back and honestly, I could care less.I strutted to the front stage and for some reason, the crowd began to cheer. I hadn't been following up on the host and what he was saying so I was lost but I tried not to act like it.I dropped my empty glass on a tray and picked up another glass of wine."As we all know, this is an event that was organized by the government to acknowledge those CEO's who have worked for them and delivered exceptionally and the event won't start pr

    Drake's POV "What do you mean by we?" I replied with a question, anger rising within me.Mia looked unfazed by my disapproval and anger and it enraged me the more."What don't you understand, you can't go out with me?" I asked."Well, not any more. We have a baby on the way now and the last thing this child needs is to be hidden. Don't you think about the company's future? This child is the company's future. When the clients hear that you have an heir, it would strengthen their trust in your company and make them patronize the company even more.""Can you hear yourself? You want to expose a child you have no idea would like the spotlight all because of the company's gain. The company is doing well and I have no intentions of letting my child out to the public and subjecting him or her to public validation before its birth." I retorted but she maintained her nonchalant attitude."It's too bad. Because I am not keeping my child a secret." She replied, flaunting her fingers before me.I
