Ella's POVI feel like I am at the crossroads. I also feel like I am drowning in my own so nice and I don't know how long I can be able to keep up with this. I am getting bigger by the day and every time I look at my belly my eyes tear up. I didn't think that this would happen to me again. I am all alone and I am wondering if this is really the right thing for me to do for me and my children. I miss being back home and I even miss being in the bakery.I just have a lot of things on my mind and even though Julia has been a great neighbour and a wonderful friend I cannot sit here and pretend like I am not going through a lot. I have always planned my life out and this was not in the plan at all. I have had a lot of things to think about and I have had a lot to process the last few months have been hell for me and it doesn't look like things are going to get better anytime soon.I started my relationship with Chad I was perfect and then on his birthday that I planned a surprise party for
Dustin's POVI know that I was taking a huge risk going to see Ella in Mexico but I was going crazy, we hadn't talked in weeks. She was right about her husband though, the man has been keeping an eye on me, he doesn't know that I have seen his goons following me around everywhere I go. I have made sure that I get away from them. It was a risky move but I just couldn't stay away from her. I realised that getting her to Mexico won't really do much if Alexander should come up here and look for her. I know that I didn't tell her about the other side of my business but unlike Alex, I would never put her life in danger. We are a respected family and our cover has been covered for generations. Even though we have a lot of money, we don't flaunt it like the Black's do. He can get to her but only because she is not officially with me. I wanted to tell her that if we actually gave each other a real shot like we should have years ago, we could actually make this work, for her and for her son.
Ella's POVMy life has been anything but hard and I guess that kind of made me feel entitled to a lot of things. I suppose in a way that kind of made me feel like I was owed a lot of things. I now realise the harsh realities of life and that no one owes me anything especially love. I don't know why I didn't see this sooner but now that I have I realise that I have some decisions to make. I honestly don't think that I can ever go back to Alex and make it work with him he has proven to me not once but tell me the time again that he cannot be trusted.I can only wonder what he will do to get to me after everything he did to make sure that I don't know the truth about him. All that I know is that I cannot let him find me and he cannot find that about their new baby coming on the way. I promised myself that I wouldn't do this to myself again and that is why when Dustin us need to give it a chance I really give it a serious thought.I know that we have had feelings for each other at one poi
Alexander's POV" You know... it is creepy to have sex in your bed with your wife hanging over the bed. " Melissa, Melinda or something like that said to me. I can't even remember her name, at this point I didn't even care. " Time to get up sweetheart, there is a car outside waiting for you." I said to her. She got out of bed. " So am I going to see you tonight?" She asked me. " I'll call you. " I said to her. I was not looking at her. The whole time I spoke to her I didn't look at her, I couldn't look at her.It has been a little over three months since I last saw my wife and my son, all the money in the world couldn't be enough for someone to lead me to her because I don't understand how she could just disappear into thin air like that. I know that she had help, at first, I was wondering who might have helped her but now I am almost certain that I know who did. Even then, I haven't been able to find her. In her absence, I felt lonely but I also knew that I was not ready for a re
Ella's POV" Is this the last of it?" Dustin asked me as he picked up a box and put it inside a truck. " Yep, that is the last box, I think that we are all set to go." I said to him. " Okay then, where's the little man? It is long drive back home. " He said. " I think that he is still asleep, I'll go and wake him up. " I said. I will tell you one thing about my son, he has this amazing ability of falling asleep anywhere, last week I spent an hour losing my mind thinking that I had lost him in the house because I couldn't find him anywhere, then I remembered how much he liked his Oreos, I went to the pantry and my son was asleep on the bottom shelf. Right now he was sleeping on the couch facing up with one hand hanging. " Bradley... Wake up baby. " I said and gently shook him. I would have lifted him but now I can't even bend, my belly is much bigger than I had anticipated and let's not mention the weight gain but if there's one thing I love is to have these amazing curves. I spok
Alexander's POVI have made a deal with the devil and now I know for a fact that I can't turn back no matter how much I want to. I didn't want things to get to where they are right now but desperation as a b**** and I have to do all that I can do to make sure that I can be able to get what I want. I spoke to my father and I told him what I wanted from him of course he expected something in return and I had no choice but to grant him his wish.I did the one thing that I promised myself I would never do and that is getting him out of prison. I suppose everyone has a price to pay in order for them to get everything that they want. I know find myself driving to the prison house in order to get my father and take him back home. As of now all charges against him have been dropped and we will be making a statement to the media very soon that everything that happened with his arrest was just one big misunderstanding. I had to pull a lot of strings but I finally got him out." I still think th
Ella's POVwhen I left Mexico I was so sure that I was making the right decision and that this was what I had to do but as soon as I got on the plane and it took off I started to have mixed feelings about the whole situation. I suppose that it is only human nature that I feel a little scared about what I might find when I get home. I have a lot of anxiety thinking about what will happen when I finally see Alexandra. I don't have all the answers but I know that I have to do something.I am tired of hiding, I am tired of being afraid to live my life and now it is time for me to take charge of my life again. I need to take my life back. I am looking forward to a better future, one without Alexander, I want a clean break. I got off the plane a few minutes ago and now I am sitting at an airport restaurant waiting for Isabella to come and get me. I was having a virgin cocktail waiting for her to show up. " Ella..." I heard her voice behind me. I turned around." Bella..." I said with a smi
Alexander's POVI starting to feel like my day was only going to get worse when I got a call on my burner phone. My father had just backed out on a hotel at the last minute and I thought that all hope was lost. I thought that I was never going to find Ella and I was angry. I knew that I couldn't trust my father and for all I know he might have not even had a clue where she was but pretended to know so that I could give him everything that he wanted. I can't believe that he thinks that I'm going to let my son know the side of our lives.I know that this is been a family Legacy for generations but I think that I should be the one to start a new generation. I didn't choose this life I was forced into it and so I had to roll with the punches. I suppose I wanted to prove myself to my father that I was not as weak as he thought that I was. I also had to prove to myself that I was more than just a trust fund baby. looking back I can't really say that I blame my father for everything that ha
