"Positive. . ." The fifth pregnancy test said.
"Oh, no." Alena whispered as she heard Avrielle and Penelope walk in the bathroom. They looked at her and gasped.
"Congratulations," Penelope said, hugging her tightly. Alena looked at her confused.
"It is Edmund's," she told her, looking at her. Penelope shrugged and rolled her eyes as they walked back to her room.
"Kill me if you want," Penelope said, sitting on Alena's bed. "But I still like him."
Avrielle sat on the carpet looking at Penelope.
"Oh, come on." Penelope laughed. "Don't look at me like that."
"You're crazy," Avrielle whispered, and turned to Alena. "Are you going to tell him?" She asked her, and Penelope put her hand on his mouth.
"The real question is, are you really going to divorce him?" Penelope questioned, and Avriel
Uno pulled Alena away from Edmund. "Sir, are you the man sent by Mr. Sandoval to give me a copy of the original marriage contract?" The judge asked. Uno nodded, and gave it to him. He smiled at her before walking out of the office. Alena turned back, whipping her tears to see Edmund, looking at the them. "Are you ready to sign now?" The judge asked hesitantly. Alena nodded. She took the pen again and signed with trembling hands. She didn't want this to happen, but she's not alone anymore. She have to think about her child. The judge nodded and gave it up to Edmund who had his jaw clenched looking furious at Uno. He took the pen and looked hesitant. It looked like he was debating with himself. He finally started signing very slowly. Once he was done, he threw the pen away rubbing his temple. "Well, thank you," The judge said
"Happy Birthday!" Alena was woken by her sister and best friend. She groaned and turned, sleeping again until they started jumping on her bed. "Get up, Sleeping Beauty!" Penelope yelled. "You have to. It's five in the afternoon and it was called weeks ago. So the restaurant would be empty today. It's just going to be us and our friends. Come on!" When she didn't answer, Penelope hit her with a pillow. "What the hell? I'm two months pregnant. Don't fucking hit me." She glared at her. "And I said I didn't want a party." "It's not a party. It's dinner with just a few people. You're twenty-three, single, beautiful, and pregnant. Get your fat ass out of bed," Penelope said, hitting her with the pillow again. "Fine!" Alena snapped, getting out of bed to take a shower as she heard her sister laugh at them. It's been three weeks sin
No. No. No. It happened again. He didn't mean it. He doesn't want to kill her. He loves her. He doesn't know why the gun went off. He didn't mean it. Alena, please. Don't hate me. . . He didn't mean it. He killed Sandra, and now Alena. And they think he killed Irina's boyfriend. All of this is driving him crazy. He worked his ass for his company. He didn't steal money from anyone. Fuck all of them! All of this he has because he worked for it. He slid against the wall. He didn't even realize the tears coming from his eyes. “Alena. . ." He kept repeating himself. He didn't mean it. He is not a murderer. He is not a murderer. He is not a murderer. He took his phone, to call his brother. "Edmund," Andrew answered. "I found everything for the trial." "Call the doctor Hilton. Tell him to meet me as soo
SIX MONTHS LATER "Alena, I don't think it's good," said Willa as she took her purse. "You're still weak," she said as she smiled at her, getting out of her room. "I'm very fine. I don't feel anything," Alena told herI as they walked down the stairs. "Alena, It's a terrible idea"," Willa panicked. "What's going on?" Lucas asked as they walked in the living room. "She wants to go see him," Willa said dramatically as she looked like she was about to cry. Her father looked at her with wide eyes. "Have you lost your mind?" He asked, walking up to her. "No. I want to see how he is. I haven't heard anything of him for months." She dropped her gaze to the floor. "He is none of your concern anymore," Alena! You are not his wife anymore." His father snapped. "He tried
"Edmund, give me my shoes back!” Alena said sternly while putting her hands on her hips. Edmund looked at her casually as he leaned against the wall. "Edmund, come on! It's getting late now,” Alena said again, but this time trying to hide her smile. "When will you come again?" Edmund asked for the fifth time, raising an eyebrow. "I don't know,” she answered. Her husband shrugged and stood there. "Okay fine. I will come on Thursday. In three days.” She sighed and gave up. She wanted to surprise him that day but he was way too stubborn. "See? It wasn't difficult to cooperate, was it?" He smirked as he walked towards her and gave her shoes back. "You're so annoying!” she said, forcing not to show her smile, but it didn’t work since his chuckle was just so perfect. Not a good w
"She was pregnant! You killed your child!” Uno freaked out as Edmund stared at him. "She deserves to be happy!" His face was so empty that not even a single emotion could be seen on it. "She wants to believe you're changing! But she’s just hurting herself!”At the spur of a moment, Edmund tilted his head. "Did you come all the way here just to tell me this?" he asked in a sea-deep voice. "Get out!” he yelled.Uno sighed and walked out of the room before someone realized he was in there. They didn't want him in. Only the family and people he chose for himself were allowed inside.Alena deserved better. This guy was only going to hurt her, she knew it. He was hoping that what he told him would snap him out of his daydreams.
Alena hate fighting with her friends but she was sure everything's going to be well. Uno is Penelope's brother, so it's not like they could just be mad forever. But it wasn't his place to tell Edmund about it. Her husband is trying his best, and she won't let Uni hurt him even more.Edmund wants to be better and if Uno can't see that, there's nothing she can do but get Edmund rid of him.After leaving Uno's office, Alena went back to Edmund, to see if he was still awake. She walked in his room to see him sitting in the couch, his face in his hands.She closed the door and he looked up so quickly that she thought he was going to break his neck. He looked at her for a moment, and then sighed in relief."I thought you. . .” He began talking but immediately stopped.Alena looked at him, smiling. "What?" she asked so he can continue, but he just shook his head, and mentioned her to come over him. She approached him and
"Alena,” Avrielle called, walking in Alena's room. "There's someone downstairs for you," she said smiling."Okay. I will be there in a second," Alena replied, combing her hair and followed her sister. She walked down the stairs and went to the living room. She saw Uno there."Uno.”Uno turned around and smiled awkwardly. Alena walked up to him and had him a hug. "I'm glad you're here." She pulled away."Yeah, me either. Listen, Alena. I'm truly sorry. I was wrong." He sighed. "You're right. It wasn't my place to tell him about it,” he said sincerely."It's okay.” She smiled to him. "I’m sorry too for what I said the other day," she apologized.He shook his head. "You were right. . .I acted like a coward.” He smiled lightly. "But I promise I won't do anything like that again.”"Thank you,” she said."How is
