THE BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE CHAPTER TWENTY
CHAPTER TWENTY.Weeks passed and nothing changed between Adele and Jamal. He did not make it up to her like he had promised. They kept having sex like a regular couple and most times, Adele would wake up to an empty bed. He hardly stayed the night after spending the night with her. Adele was heartbroken and devastated. She wanted to tell Grandma all what Jamal was doing to her, but on a second thought, she changed her mind. It was her marital problem and she had to deal with it herself.Since her and Jamal were not on talking terms, she decided to immerse herself in her work to avoid thinking about him all the time. She was so busy with work that she forgot to care for herself. The past week, she had been feeling tired and nauseous most of the time. At first, she thought it was bad food she ate, but as the feeling prolonged, she began to suspect pregnancy. Her and Jamal had been having unprotected sex and she also noticed her period was more than one week late.Without any hesitation
THE BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE
CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE.The next morning, Adele woke up with terrible morning sickness. Jamal was sitting on the sofa in their bedroom, tying away on his laptop.Adele wanted to go into the bathroom and vomit, but she was scared that he would understand her reason for vomiting. She was still very mad at him and she did not want him to know just yet that she was pregnant with his child.She needed some time to make up her mind to do so.“Good morning Adele.” Jamal greeted from the Sofa without sparing her a glance.“Good morning.” She mumbled, trying hard to keep her vomit at bay. She was experiencing her worst symptom days in his presence!She kept looking at him every two minutes and praying he would just vanish to his bureau or library, or have a sudden meeting at his company, or even vanish to the tennis court to meet his most precious Danielle, but he did not and it was becoming much harder to supportnausea with every passing moment.He on the other hand was stupidly working on his l

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO.Adele went straight to the doctor's office for a check up when she noticed she was bleeding. At the hospital, tests were carried out on her and she was later told she had a difficult pregnancy and was the cause of her persistent vomiting and nausea that morning. She was told to expect other symptoms like dizziness. Fever or chills, blurry vision and many others. She was also given a long list of does and don'ts which she could hardly recall and all that made her very scared.When she left the doctor's office, she was terrified and devastated. She did not want to tell Jamal about her pregnancy just yet, but it seemed it was really important for him to know. She has a difficult pregnancy and it was important that he knew so that they would both know how to go about it.Once she got settled in the car, her driver took off and she tried Jamal's number, but her call was immediately forwarded to his secretary who immediately told her that Jamal was busy and cut the line

CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE."Adele." Jamal called as he gave a gentle tap on Adele's arm. One of the chefs just called to inform him that dinner was ready and he wanted Adele to go down with him since they had both had nothing to eat yet.Adele, who heard the call and felt the tap, opened her eyes and her mood immediately turned sour when she saw Jamal standing before her. She quickly turned her face to the other side of the bed in an attempt to ignore him."Dinner is ready, let's go downstairs and join the others." Jamal announced and at the mention of the word dinner, Adele's intestines grumbled. She was extremely mad at Jamal and did not want to talk to or look at his face, but the idea of going down for dinner very much pleased her. She was famished and needed to eat something, especially in her condition."Adele." Jamal called yet again and this time around, Adele sat up from the bed and stepped down, not even sparing Jamal a single glance. She was about to walk away from his presence
THE BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR
CHAPTER TWENTY~FOURDays passed and Adele still did not tell Jamal about her pregnancy and she was getting worried. Her fevers were getting more frequent and morning sickness was taking a toll on her. She needed to find a way to tell him because he needed to know. All the times she had made up her mind to tell him, a fight had broken out between them which led to her not saying anything in the end.Her mother and sister-in-law kept taunting her whenever they got the opportunity and Danielle made sure to come home everyday looking for Jamal.She was tired, but there was nothing she could do.That afternoon, she was seated in her office, lost in thought when her supervisor walked in with a worried look. She heaved out a heavy sigh because he knew he was there to ask her to do something which was not her job. That was the face he kept every time he wanted her to do something out of her scope.“Adele.” Mr. Frank called and Adele looked up at him with tiredness written all over her face. S
THE BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE
CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE.As Adele made her way to the road, she sent a quick test to her supervisor, telling him she was on her way back home because she wasn’t feeling too well. She knew he was going to try to make her stay, but she wasn’t going to do that. She needed to get away from Jamal and Danielle.She was about to call a cab, a Rolls Royce stopped before her and when the door opened, she rolled her eyes hard when she saw Jamal step out of the car to stand before her.“What do you want, Jamal?” “To take you home.”“You don’t have to worry about me, I’m about to call an Uber. Just go in there and have a great time with your darling Danielle.” She spoke almost in a whisper, but Jamal could feel the bitterness in her voice. He couldn’t help but stare at her stomach.Ever since he heard that Adele was pregnant, his mind had been in total chaos. He was excited and scared at the same time. Having a child had never crossed his mind before, but now that it was about to happen , he was hap

CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX.“I have an important meeting to attend at the office, I can’t go with you to the hospital for your check up. Let me know what the doctor says.” Jamal’s words rang in Adele’s mind as she sat in the doctor’s office. The previous night, they had been cool. They took a warm bath together, ate dinner together and Jamal cuddled her in his arms all night. He seemed very happy about the fact that she was pregnant. She had thought that was the beginning of him fixing things like he had promised, but that didn’t seem to be the case. He had quickly dismissed her request to have him accompany her to the hospital that morning.He only knew that she was pregnant, but he had no idea that she had a difficult pregnancy and stood the risk of having a miscarriage if anything should happen to her. She wanted him to hear that part of the story from the doctor, but it seemed she was finally the one to tell him.After the check up, she left the doctor’s office. On her way out of the hos

CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN.SIX MONTHS LATER.Things did not get better between Adele and Jamal even after all the promises Jamal had made to her. He still kept late nights, travelled for business trips that lasted weeks and above all, he still kept meeting with Danielle very often. At that point in time, the entire country was buzzing with rumours about the fact that Danielle and Jamal were dating.Adele was devastated, but Jamal didn’t care. He had made her quit her job and all she did was stay at home and do nothing. He never accompanied her for hospital appointments, she attended all her check ups alone and Jamal hardly had the time to listen to updates about her pregnancy.Grandma who had returned home and witnessed all that was going on, tried talking to Jamal to no avail. His mind was made up.Meanwhile, Aliya and Shannelle were beyond grateful at that moment. Aliya made sure to fuel the rumour about Danielle and Jamal’s affair and it satisfied her that Adele was heartbroken, despite
