Before he could utter a word, the door was pushed open and the doctor entered the ward. He took her body temperature and her heartbeat rate. “Madam, how are you feeling now?” the doctor asked. “Am feeling like my baby is not inside here.” That was the only feeling she had.

The doctor looked at here, “Madam we are sorry for the loss of your baby, but again we are lucky that you are alive.”

She felt her heart bleeding from pain. The joy she had did not even last for a day. The baby she had been asking for was just gone like that. She was not able to protect her child.

“She pushed me down the stairs and made me lose my baby,” she cried.

Alexander Reid who was listening to her could roughly guess what had happened. He moved closer to her and held her hand. He didn’t know how to console her but he had to try.

“Don’t cry, don’t think about it anymore, you will get another baby, as beautiful as you.”

“Really? Will I get another baby?’ she smiled then her smile faded.

“But Lucas Hayes doesn’t want me anymore. He said he loves my sister,” she paused then continued.

” I went to the hospital today and the doctor told me that I was pregnant. I couldn’t wait to break the good news to my husband. I rushed home and I found him with my sister naked in our matrimonial bed. She pushed me down the stairs, I was bleeding, I called for help but they ignored me.”

Her child was gone, she felt like losing hope in life. The doctor gave her some medicine so that she could sleep for some time. Alexander Reid followed the doctor to his office.

He explained to the doctor how he received a call from her and rushed her to the hospital. All long the doctor thought that she was his wife not knowing that he was just a savior who was called by mistake.

“When is she going to be discharged?” Alexander Reid asked. “There is nothing serious now. She can just be discharged and recuperate at home, but she needs a lot of rest.”

At the same time inside the ward, Mrs. Hayes, Lucas Hayes mother pushed the door open. She pulled the drip from Vanessa's hand and she started bleeding. Vanessa was awaken by the pain. Before she could master what was going on, she received a slap on her right cheek.

“You daughter of a bitch, why did you abort my grandson? I wish my son would have never married you.” Vanessa did not shed a single tear.

“You can’t talk now you prostitute? You have slept around with men forgetting how my son has always been good to you.”

She slapped her again on her left cheek. Vanessa hung her head low and Mrs. Hayes thought that she was guilty in her heart so she dared not to look at her.

“Arrr, you have just been a disgrace to the Hayes family.” Mrs. Hayes eyes were full of disgust. Mrs. Hayes didn’t like her from the very beginning, she was not the type of daughter-in-law she wanted. She saw her as a useless woman, who didn’t add any value to the Hayes family other that just staying at home and enjoying the wealth of the Hayes family.

Vanessa raised her head and glared at Patricia without the slightest expression on her face.

"Look at you ugly human being! You killed my grandson, I have not yet settled the scores with you yet you still have the audacity to stare at me!”

Vanessa listened to Mrs. Hayes rebuke and accusations, and lowered her head again, making it impossible for Mrs. Hayes to guess what she was thinking. Mrs. Hayes glanced at the blood stain on the back of Vanessa's hand, and was stunned for a moment.

It was a needle which had dropped and it won’t kill her. She thought to herself. Mrs. Hayes pulled her hand and she fell from the bed with a thud. At the same time, Alexander Reid was done talking with the doctor so he headed towards the ward.

At the door, he overheard something falling with someone shouting. He quickly rushed in only to find Vanessa on the floor, blood flowing from her hand.

A middle age woman stood there as she cursed her. “What are you doing?” he pushed the woman aside and carried Vanessa placing her back to bed.

He quickly pressed the bell so that the doctor could come in quickly. Mrs. Hayes took out a document from her bag and threw it in front of Vanessa "Sign it!" Mrs. Hayes said with a cold voice.

Alexander Reid tried pushing the woman out of the door but Vanessa stopped him. “Do you have a pen?” she asked with a low voice.

Alexander Reid took a pen from his pocket and handed it to her. She picked the paper and signed her name with a shady handwriting then gave it back to Alexander Reid who gave it to the woman.

The doctor quickly rushed in and the drip was connected back to her hand. Alexander Reid called the security who led Mrs. Hayes out of the hospital. Alexander Reid sat by the side of her bed.

He knew she was in too much pain. He had seen the document she signed very well. It was a divorce agreement document. She had found her husband cheating with her sister in her matrimonial bed, she had lost her baby and she got divorced on the same day. The kind of pain could not be borne by just an ordinary person. He was sure that she must be trying very hard to remain strong.

“Everything will be okay with time,” he assured her. Natasha nodded her head.

“Have you seen my phone anywhere?” she asked Alexander Reid. He took the phone from his trouser pocket and handed it to her. Vanessa was surprised not understanding how he got hold of her phone.

  • Shattered Vows   Chapter 27

    While everything was getting heated up between Lucas and Alex, Vanessa was having the time of her life already constructing her company and visioning how it would expand and become one of the best in the state. She was so occupied that she hardly even came back home to sleep. And now that she had removed Alex from her thoughts in total, it made her concentrate more on her business. She knew what she was saying when she said that the both of them would be a distraction to her. Now that none of them were in her way, she was able to do whatever she wanted and stay away from all of them while being at peace with herself. It had been a few days since she met with Becky, and she was slowly missing her. She decided to go to her office and pay her a surprise visit. On her way to Becky's office, she had to wait for the red light as it seemed that students were crossing over to end while some were coming down from the school bus. She looked afar and she could see Alex's house. It made her rem

  • Shattered Vows   Chapter 26

    Even though Alex never wanted this to lead to violence, he had no choice. What Lucas had just said to him made him so angry. He couldn't believe that Lucas was still labeling Vanessa as his own wife, as someone who belonged to him despite everything he did to her. Lucas, who had even started the fight, was unable to get hold of himself. He had already become so weak—just two punches from Alex. Meanwhile, Alex was still standing firm. Just then, security guards rushed towards them and separated them as they pushed Lucas out. After hearing from the bartender that Lucas was the one who came to Alex and started the fight, yelling at him, while Alex was told to leave the bar at his own accord, which he did almost immediately. Alex did not want to go home because he still had to face Aaron. So he drove back to his office and instead sat there in the darkness, thinking about everything—mostly thinking about the words that Lucas had uttered to him.

  • Shattered Vows   Chapter 25

    Alex, listening to the words Vanessa muttered, could clearly understand what she was trying to say. It was more than obvious that Vanessa could not continue this anymore. She was now in a tight spot. He slowly let go of her as he caressed her hair gently. "Is Lucas still stalking you? Does he want anything from you? Do you want me to deal with him?" Alex asked as Vanessa shrugged before walking into the building. He could not help but follow after her as he needed answers. He knew that there was something Vanessa was not saying. They soon entered. Vanessa sat on the sofa and motioned for him to sit. "What you don't really understand is I don't want to be involved with any of you guys anymore. I just want to be far from the both of you. Pull me back, and I don't want to be pulled back. And I think if anything should get more heated between the both of us, I won't help but fall in love with you, and I don't want that," Van

    Lucas sat in front of his mother as he slowly sipped the coffee. His mom had called him for a brief family meeting. Immediately she heard the news about Vanessa's arrival. "So did you get to meet Vanessa?" she questioned as Lucas did not say a word because he did not know how else to respond to his mother. After Vanessa had left years ago, she always blamed him that he was the reason why she lost everything. He lost a child and still lost a wife. Only for him to keep Eliana as his mistress, not even marrying her. "You have to get her back. Even though you guys are now divorced, you still need to get your wife back. She's still your wife and still belongs to you. Try to put that authority before it is too late. Do you understand?" she said to him as he smiled. "You won't tell me what to do, though. Your idea is very good. But I am planning on taking it one step at a time. I won't rush things, and I won't rush Vanessa either. She left on

  • Shattered Vows   Chapter 23

    The next morning, Becky opened her eyes and was surprised to see herself in Vanessa's room. Even her clothes were changed to a night dress. She sat down and rubbed her eyes, calling out to Vanessa, but yet no answer. She stood up from the bed and slowly walked out of the room. "Vanessa," she called again, but yet got no answer. She went to the kitchen, and on the counter was her breakfast. She could not help but smile because Vanessa was treating her like a princess that she never imagined she would be. She opened it, and it was a very decent Italian breakfast, just as she expected. It seemed as though Vanessa was still connected to Italy because she refused to let go of it in any way. That was when it dawned on Becky. Vanessa had come back to work again. She couldn't even believe it. Yes, she had known Vanessa for so long and knew that she was always busy with business in Italy. But she had no idea

  • Shattered Vows   Chapter 22

    Meanwhile, Lucas, seeing Vanessa again, took a huge toll on him because he was unable to believe that Vanessa would ever be able to look as good as she did, not to talk less of the rumors he heard that she now has a successful company in Italy, which she had now moved to the States. It felt like she had left and come back for revenge. It angered Luca so badly because he even talked to her, offered her a second chance with him, but she rejected without even thinking twice. Just then he heard a loud bang on the door. He opened it, and it was Eliana. As she stormed in, looking angry, she turned to him with her hands on her hips and a frown on her face. Lucas did not really care because he was still lost in his thoughts with Vanessa as he sat back down on the sofa, watching Eliana about to display her madness again. These few years had made him really see who Eliana was, and he was slowly getting tired of her.
