DIVORCED BY THE BILLIONAIRE Chapter 32
AURORA The discharge papers took forever.I sat on the edge of the hospital bed, my legs dangling, my back still sore, watching the nurse explain things I couldn't focus on. She talked about medications and rest and follow-up appointments and I nodded along but my mind was somewhere else, somewhere in the restaurant where I had fallen, somewhere in the basement where I would have to sleep tonight."Ms. Vale?"I blinked. "Sorry.""I said you need to take it easy for at least a week. No heavy lifting, no standing for long periods, no rushing into dangerous situations." She smiled a little. "The doctor was very specific about that last one.""Right.""Your prescriptions are ready at the pharmacy downstairs. Someone can pick them up for you.""I'll get them.""You need someone to help you home.""I'll manage."She looked at me like she didn't believe me, but she didn't argue. She just handed me the discharge papers and told me to sign.I signed with shaky hands. At this point I planned t

AURORA THE hospital lights were too bright.I blinked and blinked but the whiteness didn't go away, just stayed there burning into my eyes while I tried to remember where I was. The ceiling was white and the walls were white and there was a machine beeping somewhere nearby, steady and constant."Ms. Vale?"I turned my head. Dr. Ellis stood at the foot of my bed, her head tilted, her expression caught somewhere between concern and confusion."You're back," she said. "I just saw you this morning.""I–" I tried to speak but my throat was dry. "I fell.""Fell?"Dr. Ellis walked closer and pulled up a chair. "The ambulance nurse gave me the report. Sharp pain in both legs, no bleeding, you were conscious the whole time. They induced you in the ER because the pain was too severe.""Induced?""To stop the contractions. The pain you felt was your body trying to go into early labor. We gave you medication to stop it."I stared at her. "Early labor?""Your baby is fine, Ms. Vale. She's safe. T

AURORA The lunch rush was always the worst, too many people crammed into too little space with the contractors still moving through the restaurant like they owned the place, and I had just cleared a table near the window when I heard raised voices.Customers yelling over eachother."You touched me!""I didn't touch you, you bumped into me.""I didn't bump into you, you pushed me."I turned around to see a man and a woman, middle-aged, standing near the counter where I had just set down a tray of dirty dishes. The man was tall and broad-shouldered with a face already turning red, and the woman was smaller with her arms crossed and her chin lifted like she was ready for a fight."I'm not going to stand here and be accused of something I didn't do," the man said."Then maybe you should watch where you're going," the woman shot back."I was standing still. You walked into me.""Are you calling me a liar?""I'm calling you clumsy."The woman stepped forward and the man stepped forward too

AURORA I stood up after a moment of rest to make sure the workers here to fix the basement and some part of the diner and the customers don't run into each other . They were everywhere. Two men carried supplies through the dining room, their boots leaving marks on the floor as they matched down to the corner where the basement door was, the customer moving out of the way fast enough not to get hit.I squeezed past them to get behind the counter. A ladder was leaning against the wall where some of the customers usually sat."Excuse me," I said, stepping around a bucket.The man on the ladder barely moved. He just grunted and kept working.I grabbed my apron and tied it around my waist. The dining room was a mess. Chairs were pushed aside, tables covered in drop cloths. A drill going off everywhere in the back. This was ruining the business in a way. I was sure the customers were dissatisfied with the noise and the back and forth, I'd be if I was in their shoes. This with babies had

AURORA I clutched my clothes shaking as we walked outside.The clinic doors swung shut behind us and I stopped for a hot second, I just stood there on the sidewalk, my hand pressed against my stomach, trying to breathe. That was close.All the anonymity, all the plans to just be alone, all the plans to live a very quiet life almost got ruined. I shook the cold off my legs and looked around, looking for somewhere to sit while Theo just watched me with keen interest. I needed to sit down but there was nowhere to sit, just the concrete, the cars, trolleys and the people walking past, going about their day.I walked to a bench near the parking lot and sat. My hands were trembling. I pressed them flat against my thighs and stared at the ground.What just happened?I didn't think he'd recognized me. He almost exposed everything, he would've ruined everything. All my very careful plans.When I left Sacramento my goal was to go where no one would recognize me, I'd start a new life, with ne

AURORA Julian and I took the same economics class sophomore year and sat next to each other for a whole semester. He was always well dressed and drove a car that cost more than our tuition. His family was that rich. They owned some big thing in the tech industry — I couldn't remember what — but he was nice enough. We never talked much after an incident in school and we never stayed in touch after graduation either.He stood near the exit with a woman, her hand on his arm and her stomach round with pregnancy. She was pretty and blonde, wearing clothes that looked expensive even from across the room. They were both looking at a phone, laughing at something.He definitely can't see me like this.I turned away fast and walked toward the bathroom, my heart pounding. I pushed open the door and stood inside with my back against the wall. He couldn't see me. It's been years, there's no way he'd recognize me…right?I looked different now, I was thinner, tired, my hair in a ponytail, no makeu

AURORA I called Damien's cell again. Maybe, Ray would've told him about her call by now, right?He picked on the fourth ring and I felt my heart rate spike up, I almost had a heart attack."Aurora." Vanessa's voice was sweet, syrupy came from the other end. My face fell. "You're still calling?"I

AURORA Lydia finally left around midnight after making me promise to eat the sandwich she'd bought from a gas station and call her if I needed anything. I promised, even though we both knew I wouldn't call. She'd done enough. Driving me to the hospital, paying for the motel room.I definitely wasn

AURORAI knew she was right. Every word she said was true and logical and practical, and I hated her a little for saying them out loud because they were the same thoughts that had been rattling around in my own head since the doctor spoke.
