Chapter 17 – Coincidence

Juliet Pierce

I dragged myself through the rest of the night. Noah disappeared into his office and never came out, at least not while I was still there. Samy and Penelope kept asking what happened, but I wasn’t ready to talk. How do you explain that you were stupid enough to fall for a man after one kiss… and that the man is completely out of reach?

I had promised Atlas I’d help with the finances of his mom’s store. We agreed to meet at lunch. I woke up, soaked up every

    Chapter 131 — For All the Days of Our Lives (Pt. II)Atlas WilsonI asked Elijah to continue, but I knew him, and the truth was, I wasn’t prepared for what came next.“Your test results showed anemia, and unfortunately, it’s not simply anemia caused by pregnancy. I believe you already had this condition, and now, with the baby, with both of them sharing everything, it has worsened.”“Anemia?” Samantha asked, confused.“Exactly. It’s a condition in which the body is unable to produce enough healthy red blood cells, or the amount of hemoglobin in the blood is too low. That prevents oxygen from being properly transported to the body’s tissues and organs, resulting in severe symptoms.”“You said it’s a condition she already had, and with the baby, it got worse?” I asked, trying to understand the risks for both of them.“Yes. I’ll try to explain it in a simple way.” He began, and I felt Samantha’s hand trembling beneath mine. “During pregnancy, iron requirements increase significantly to s

She hit the floor hard.“Baby...” I called, already scooping her into my arms and carrying her to the bed. “Talk to me, sweetheart,

    Chapter 129 — If You’re PregnantSamantha JonesOur weekend had been chaotic. Dom got shot, Noah was furious, and I was feeling sick practically every day. Atlas didn’t want me at the club, but there was no way I was leaving my gorgeous, sexy, irresistible boyfriend alone with those two shameless women.Long story short, the days passed, and Monday arrived—which meant the day of the appointment he had scheduled for me.I’ll admit it, I was nervous.I wanted to take a pharmacy test, clear up the doubt, and be done with it. But my boyfriend wouldn’t hear of it. He said we were going to do everything properly: a consultation, blood work, imaging tests, and whatever else was necessary.“Are you ready?” he asked, stopping right behind me while I got dressed in front of the mirror.“I am, but I still think this is unnecessary.”“We’ve already talked about this, Samantha.”I rolled my eyes at him, and in response, I received a sharp slap on my ass.“Atlas!”And without warning, another slap

    Chapter 128 — Today and ForeverDominic CostelloI’m an idiot, a complete idiot for talking to her like that. I knew none of it was her fault, but jealousy blinded me—that was the truth.Knowing she went looking for that asshole who so obviously has feelings for her made me act like a bratty teenager instead of a grown man.I shouted for her to come back, but it was useless. I tried to get up, but everything started spinning, and I backed down.The door opened, and a nurse walked in.“Mr. Costello, how are you feeling?” she asked as she approached.“I’m fine. I just tried to get up and felt dizzy.”“Ah, that’s normal. You lost a significant amount of blood and you’re still under the effects of medication. I wouldn’t recommend getting up unless you have assistance.” She glanced around the room. “Where is your companion?”“She stepped out to take a call,” I lied. I couldn’t exactly say I’d picked a fight with my woman in a hospital room.“I understand. I brought your things. Here are yo

    Chapter 127 — The Man of My LifeTaylor LaurentDominic is not going to like what I did when he finds out, but I’m doing this for him.“If you were so sure I’d come looking for you, then you already know why I’m calling.” I said to Adam.“I do. You regret leaving and want to come back.”“Oh, of course that’s it! What woman wouldn’t want to trade Manhattan for South? I must be completely insane.” I replied sarcastically.“Then tell me what you want, Taylor.” His tone changed.“I want to know what Tom and Jerry were doing here.”“You saw them? Tropeço has been trying to get in touch with them.”“I don’t think that’s going to be possible right now.” I answered with irony.“I’m serious, Taylor. You have no idea what’s going on. If you know where they are, just tell me.”“Why should I?”“Because we’re friends?”“Friends?” I shot back. “Your brother made it very clear we couldn’t be friends. And the drugs you got for me? I paid you very well for them.”“I was never officially your friend, b
