Once upon a billionaire's wife Chapter Thirty Three
Nicholas tried to calm his breath as he laid in bed. The information he got that day was too much for him to handle. Everything was just so confusing. What was Thompson even up to? Who was he working with? Was he even working with anyone?The questions just went round and round his head. Nicholas was not even sure of anything."Why would he tell Astra that?" Nicholas said out loud, he was asking Sarah. They were at his house and he was supposed to be on bed rest. Sarah was there to ensure that."Because he wants to put you both against each other. I am not sure what he will gain from it though," Sarah said and Nicholas shook his head, his mind was already going in another direction. The thoughts he was coming up with were not thoughts he allowed himself to imagine."The real question is, is this the first time that he has tried to do this?" Nicholas asked and Sarah frowned."You are not insinuating that Thompson was the one tried to break your marriage with Astra. That is too long a s

"Oh would you look at the time, we should get going," Astra said. The time was almost two pm and they still had baby shopping to do. Astra knew that she would not even imagine doing this for someone else other than Stephanie. She would not put herself through self torture for anyone else."Oh yes, we should. We need to get going so we can at least get a few things to buy," Steph said as they both stood up from the couch.They both walked outside her apartment and entered her car. The drive to the store was short and full of stories. Astra figured that she missed all that. It had been a while."Oh, wow, everything looks so pretty," Steph said as they walked into the first baby store. The place was full with clothes, toys and pastel colors, there was everything. Pregnant women of all shapes and sizes were waltzing through the halls. Astra felt sorely out of place. Steph did not notice that though, she was still too busy taking in the entire vibe of the place. Astra could not blame her,

"What are you insinuating?" Stephanie asked. She had no expression on her face, and Astra could not tell what was on her mind. It was unnerving to say the least. She was not sure if her friend was angry or not."You know what I am talking about Stephanie," Astra said and Stephanie's expression feel. It seemed like she was carrying a heavy load that she was finally able to let go off."I don't know what to do Astra," Steph said, tears gathering in her eyes. Astra saw the change in her friend's countenance and deduced that the conversation was not one to be had in public."We should start getting back to my place. We can talk there," Astra said to her friend. Stephanie cleaned her eyes and nodded her head.Astra drove them back to her place. They were still on their way when Steph said, "Ray said he travelled two weeks ago. I have not seen him in two weeks."Astra was shocked, she did not know what to say. She just kept on driving."I don't know where he goes, he just says he is working

Nicholas knew that he would have to talk to Astra about Thompson, that and the fact that what happened five years before was severely bothering him. He needed to talk to Astra. Over the week, he went through what happened back then in his head over and over again. And then he compared it to what Thompson told Astra. They were both believable, it was just that Nicholas was given evidence. More and more Nicholas began to doubt the evidence he was given, maybe it was a set up, maybe it was more than that. The only way he could clear his doubts was through talking to Astra.Nicholas was feeling much more better and he did not have any urge to faint, but Sarah clung to him like a mother hen. He knew that he had scared his cousin because of how she was acting. Sarah all but moved into his house and he hadn't been able to do anything since then.Thompson was still nowhere to be found and that had kept them busy over the week. They had tried to trace the two cars that he was last seen in, bu

Chapter 37Astra woke up with the comfortable feeling of someone holding her, and then she was blissfully sore. She froze for a moment as she realized what her being sore meant, last night was not a dream. Astra knew that a dream could not be so vivid and clear. She was with Nicholas night, she was still with him this morning.Astra turned and saw Nicholas sleeping soundly beside her, she took a deep breath as she confirmed it was not Jared. That would have been an issue. Now that Astra was sure that it was Nicholas sleeping close to her, she was not sure what to do with that information. She was scared, angry, and frustrated. She just had sex with Nicholas, and she willingly did it. She just fucked the man that threw her out of his house while she was pregnant with his child, the man that made her pass through so much pain and disgrace. Astra frowned as she remembered how much of an alcoholic she became over time and the fire that had damaged her skin and made her need plastic surger

Astra zipped up her box for the camp. She was ready to leave. She wrapped her hair hair up in a by and straightened her white shirt over her dark jean trousers."Are you set?" Jared asked from her living room. He had gotten to her place a little early."Yeah, I am good," she replied. Astra decided to forget all about what happened with Nicholas and move on. It did not really matter so much, and she was not exactly in her right senses when it happened, she could not also blame Nicholas either as she remembered inviting him to her bed. She also slept in the nude."Okay, then, let's get going," Jared said and helped her with her box. Astra wondered the reason why Nicholas wanted to make her jealous with Sarah as they got into the car. That part of the story was never really clear to her, she needed more validation in that respect."So tell me a bit about your friends, I don't want to be lost when I get there," Astra said. She really needed to stop thinking about Nicholas so much."Well,

She actually went through his sketchbook while she was at his house for the weekend and saw an unfinished portrait of herself, she was quite astonished as it was beautiful, she then volunteered to sit for a sketch on their next date, little did she know that it was going to be this stressful. "Relax Astra, you are allowed to move," Jared said, he had obviously noticed her discomfort. Astra smiled at his concern. He was just that kind of man. It was something that she was growing to love about him, his concern for others.Astra was officially Jared's girlfriend, they had grown close after she told him about the death of her daughter.
