Bound By His Child Chapter 10.
Adrian's POV.Instead of sending a car for Jane like I’d planned, I ended up going home myself.It wasn’t intentional. An employee had rushed past me in the hallway, distracted and careless, and spilled an entire cup of scalding tea down my shirt. The fabric clung to my skin, ruined beyond saving, and the irritation that followed was immediate and sharp. I dismissed him with a glare and decided it wasn’t worth returning to the office wardrobe. I’d change at home. It was more efficient anyway.When I arrived, the house felt quieter than usual, too quiet.I went straight to the bedroom, loosening my tie as I walked, expecting to find Jane there, curled up on the bed, pretending not to exist, like she had mastered so well these past days, but she wasn’t.I frowned, scanning the room. The bathroom was empty. The wardrobe untouched. Her phone wasn’t on the bedside table.I told myself not to care. And then a single thought cut through my head like a blade.My child.I stiffened. I didn’t t

Jane's POV.So I'm not invincible to Adrian. He even called me. In our three years of marriage, Adrian has never been the first to give me a call. Even when he saw my missed calls and messages, he never called or texted back.I placed my hand on my stomach out of habit, and a smile curled up my lips. Finally, there's a life growing inside me. “But baby you came at the wrong time,” I whispered. “I'm gonna leave your father. He's always hurt me, and I can't take it anymore so...” my eyes were turning wet. “...so I'll be leaving in a few months, after you're born.”“But don't worry, mommy won't be leaving you alone with him, okay?” I continued. “Mommy will fight for your custody and take you with her.”Another smile graced my lips as I caressed my stomach. I looked at the flowers, the way they danced in the breeze, and the fragrance they released was a stark contrast to the emotions tumbling inside me.“Madam?” Someone called and I turned. It was one of the workers in the house. “You hav

Adrian's POV.My phone rang, once, twice, cutting sharply through the quiet rhythm of numbers lining my screen. I ignored it, eyes fixed on the figures I was recalculating. The margin was thin. One wrong decimal and the entire projection collapsed. I hated interruptions when I was working.The phone rang again, and again. I clenched my jaw. Whoever it was clearly didn’t understand the concept of busy. With an irritated sigh, I picked up the phone without looking at the caller ID. “What?”A familiar, unimpressed silence answered first before the yell that almost deadened me. “Is that how you answer your mother’s calls now?!”I leaned back in my chair, pinching the bridge of my nose. Of course. “Hi, Mom.”“I’ve been calling you,” she said pointedly.“I was busy,” I replied flatly.“Liar,” she accused.“Mom.”“Don’t ‘Mom’ me,” she snapped. “You always say that when you’re avoiding me.”I exhaled slowly, counting to three. “What do you want?”“I want you and your wife to have lunch with m

Jane’s POVI didn’t wait for John to open the door for me. The moment the car came to a stop, I pushed it open myself and stepped out, my heels hitting the driveway with sharp finality. John looked startled, his mouth opening like he wanted to say something, maybe Are you okay? or Should I help you?, but one look at my face must have told him better. He simply shut the door behind me and stayed where he was.I stormed into the house, the familiar marble floors cold beneath my feet, anger coursing through my veins like poison. My chest burned with it. How dare he pull something like that? How dare he corner me in public, steal my voice, rewrite the narrative with a single calculated kiss?Now, to the rest of the world, I was living some picture-perfect married life. Headlines would spin it as reconciliation. Strangers would sigh over us like we were some tragic love story fighting against the odds.If only they knew.If only they knew that behind closed doors, my life was nothing but a

Adrian's POV.I had to stop her. I didn’t know what she would do next, not with the way her voice had risen, not with the way her eyes burned with betrayal and something dangerously close to recklessness. Jane had always been quiet, restrained, careful. But this Jane...this Jane was volatile. And volatility was bad for business. It's bad for reputation. It's bad for control.People were already watching. I noticed it before she did—the subtle pauses, the sideways glances, phones half-lifted then lowered again. A hospital was a breeding ground for whispers, and my name was not one that stayed anonymous for long. If she spoke again, if she screamed, accused, collapsed, if even one word slipped out of her mouth, headlines would be born before the hour was over.CEO’s Wife Causes Scene at Hospital.Billionaire Marriage Crumbles Amid Scandal.Adrian Blackwood's been a bad husband?Unacceptable. The solution had to be immediate, and decisive, so I kissed her. Not because I wanted to, not be

Jane's POV.I opened my eyes slowly then shut them again immediately. The light was too bright, too sharp, slicing through my skull like punishment. I lay still, breathing carefully, allowing the pounding in my head to settle before I tried again. When I finally lifted my eyelids, the world came into focus in fragments—white walls, the steady beep of a monitor, the faint scent of antiseptic. It was... a hospital ward? My heart lurched. I tried to sit up, but a dull ache spread through my body, heavy and disorienting. Panic crept in as I scanned the room. A thin curtain, a metal stand with an IV drip, the unfamiliar stiffness of the bed beneath me.What happened?Memories rushed back all at once, cruel and vivid: Adrian’s office, his hands on her, the courthouse, the pen in my hand, the way he signed the divorce papers without hesitation, the way he didn’t stop me, didn’t fight, didn’t even pretend, the way my heart finally gave up. And then...darkness.The sound of a door opening pu
