Laura's POV.

I left the office yesterday with so much anger boiling inside of me. This morning, I was already awake but I was still annoyed.

I knew exactly who was responsible for it. It was no one else but Lucas. He told me to my face that he wasn't going to fire me no matter what I did to him.

But at the back of my head, I knew that I just had to push a little bit further and I would get to piss him off so badly that he has no other choice but to fire me. Because a human being has limits, an

    Laura's POV.“They're not fighting. Don't say my kids are fighting with each other.” “Okay ma'am.” Lucas said, teasing me.“Look at them.” the doctor said as we turned our eyes back to the screen. One baby moved while the other remained still.“They're just saying hello.” the doctor said, adjusting the machine as Lucas smiled. Then the room was filled with a fast and steady sound. I froze as my eyes widened.“Is that…”“The heartbeat,” the doctor said. My hand flew to my mouth and I looked at Lucas.He wasn't smiling anymore. His eyes were fixed on the screen, I could see the emotion in his face before he looked away. Another heartbeat filled the room, it was different and equally fast. I felt tears gather in my eyes.“Two heartbeats,” I whispered.Lucas bent down and kissed my forehead.“Two.” I said again, laughing through my tears.“I can't believe this.” Lucas said, brushing his thumb across my cheek.“I can.” Lucas said and I looked at him.“You can?” I asked again, as though I

  • My Best Friend's Father: The Man I Shouldn't Want    Chapter 150

    Laura's POV.I woke up before Lucas and that alone was quite unusual. Most mornings, he was already awake before me, especially since he had somehow decided that being my husband meant monitoring me on whether I had slept well enough.I reached for my phone on the bedside table and checked the time. It was 6:42 a.m. I groaned and dropped it back down then Lucas stirred in his sleep beside me.“Are you awake?” he asked, his voice sounded rough with sleep.“Yes.”“Why?” he asked and I turned toward him.“Why am I awake?” I repeated the same question he asked me. Then he nodded his head at me.“I don't know. Maybe because I'm pregnant.” I said, watching him open one of his eyes.“Are you feeling okay?” “Yes, I'm fine.” I replied as he sat upright.“Do you feel any pain?”“No I don't.”“What about cramping and dizziness?”“No baby. I don't feel any of it, I am perfectly fine.” I said. He just looked at me intensely for another few seconds before lying back down.“You don't have to act hy

    Lucas's POV.Later that morning, I walked into the room we had chosen for the nursery. We had barely looked at it since we came back and now was the perfect time more than ever.Laura followed me and she stood beside me, while looking around.“I keep imagining what our babies will look like. I can't wait to give birth to them, I am already so tired of being pregnant. I want to have a flat tummy once again.” Laura said and to be honest, she sounded very funny.“Don't worry about anything, my love. You will give birth to our beautiful babies, I'll make sure you have a safe delivery.”“Thank you my love. I'll also need to go with you so we can shop for more baby stuff. I haven't done all the shopping.”“Okay baby. We will shop whatever you want for our kids, you are their mother after all. And for this room, we will make it exactly how you want it.”“That reminds me. I want this room to be changed into a warm ambience, I don't want it too fancy anymore and I need lots of light. Also, may

    Lucas's POV.Marriage became real in the smallest of ways. It was so funny that I did not feel it during the wedding or during the pictures that we took. Not even when Laura called me her husband for the first time. I felt my marriage was real in the morning when I woke up and I found one of her slippers in the middle of the bedroom.I stared at it, then I bursted out laughing. My wife had been home for less than a day, and somehow her things were already everywhere.I picked up the slipper and placed it beside the other one. When I walked downstairs, I found Laura sitting at the kitchen counter.She was eating fruit while scrolling through her phone. Then she looked up at me “Good morning, baby.” she said, munching her food.“Good morning, princess.” I replied, leaning down to place a quick kiss on her lips. Then I looked at her plate.“That's breakfast?” I asked and she looked down at her plate.“Yes.”“That's not enough.” I said and she sighed.“Here we go.” I said, opening the f

    Laura's POV.I stood in front of the mirror while Lucas zipped my suitcase for me. He was helping me to do all of that while I was trying to touch my hair, I mean to say I was trying to arrange my hair and then I looked at him through the reflection of the mirror because I did not want him to forget anything so I had to remind him.“Baby, please are you sure everything is packed?”“Yes.”“What about my shoes, my skin care and my charger? You know that it is really hard for me to find a good charger for my phone. So I must not forget anything, please baby.”Lucas stopped and as soon as I noticed it I began to panic. So I turned around to face him as I spoke up.“Baby, did you forget those things that I mentioned to you?’ I asked.“No I didn't.” he replied. He walked over, opening the smaller compartment of my bag and he pulled out my charger.I was actually surprised. Anyone would say I am a dramatic woman, but I just wanted him to be able to take all my bags. I mean all my little bags

  • My Best Friend's Father: The Man I Shouldn't Want    Chapter 146

    Laura's POV.The first person I saw when I opened my eyes was my husband. He was lying on the side of the bed, watching me as I was sleeping. I was literally startled but then I got to understand or would I rather say my brain reconnected, telling me that I was safe in the soft embrace of my husband. He literally wouldn't let anything happen to me.“How long have you been staring at me?” I asked, lifting up my body and I pulled the blanket over my face. “Long enough, baby.”“You are becoming creepy, my beloved. I get scared sometimes when you behave like that” I said and he laughed beside me.“You're my wife. I'm allowed to look at you. And do you really want me to believe that you get scared of me? that is impossible.”“There's a difference between looking and staring.”“I disagree.” I pushed the blanket down.“What time is it?” I asked, pushing the blanket down.“Almost ten.” he said, my eyes almost widened.“What do you mean by ten?”“Yes, you heard me right. It is ten.”“You let

    Laura's POV.I woke up suddenly, my body jerking like I had fallen from somewhere high.For a few seconds, I just laid there, staring at the ceiling. My heart raced for no clear reason, the room felt unfamiliar to me but not enough to scare me, yet my body felt wrong.It felt heavy and used. I felt

    Laura's pov.The alcohol burned in my veins. It was louder than my thoughts. I knew this wasn't me. Not the sober me. Not the careful girl who over thought everything and apologized too much. But the alcohol didn't care about who I usually was. It peeled me open and let something reckless breathe.

    Laura's POV.I didn't say a word to Lucas. Because if I opened my mouth, I wasn't sure of what would come out of it. If it were truth or lies, or something in between that could ruin everything.I just stood there, holding the file like it was the only thing that could keep me on the right track.L
