Chapter 63
Ruhi spent most of the day searching for apartments online until she received an email from his PA.
'Poor thing, the slave driver boss is making Linda work on a weekend besides keeping her in the office till 6.30 PM,' she thought and read the email excitedly as the subject said 'Party at the Crescent Hotel.'
Ruhi wondered why Rafael was suddenly throwing a party after chewing everyone's heads off ever since he got out of the hospital. She ran excitedly to the garden to ask Antonio once she read the party details.
"Unlimited Korean barbeque, Japanese buffet, free-flowing alcohol, Latin dancing, a photo booth and so on... whoa! What's the occasion, dad? It's in the middle of the week."
"It's my wife's birthday on that day. We host the party in a hotel where she was bestowed the ballerina title thirty years ago—Prima ballerina assoluta." He said proudly. "She was pregnant with Rafael then but didn't know yet."
"Oh wow! A

"Oh, look! She's alive." Sarah swung around in her chair, calling for Brittany's attention when Ruhi walked to her cubicle. "Oh, my God! What happened to you? You missed so much on Friday!" "I... I wasn't feeling well. Why? What happened on Friday?" "I think the boss is open for all of us to hit on. He banged some chick in the middle of the day. Looks like his relationship with his wife is officially done done!" Brittany explained. "Or he doesn't care at all what anyone thinks about him anymore. He never encouraged his secretary's flirtingand was always careful to protect his relationship when he was with Alisha." Sarah added. "Alisha is hotter than his secretary. And we are all hotter than his wife. But Khloe said he looked devoted to his wife when she was here." "Unfaithful men will bang anything, even if they have a hot girlfriend. He was committed to them, his ex and thenhis soon-to-be wife. Now he is not anymore becaus

"Choices, choices, decisions, and more decisions!" Ruhi huffed as she looked at the stores in the shopping district and thought about the two dozen apartments she looked at the day before and still wondering if she made the right choice."Only the most elitein town come here," Rosie said, pointing to the security standing at the entrance of each store, asking clients if they have an appointment.Most stores shooed away window shoppers just by looking at them.

"Positive?!" Ruhi stared at the double lines in disbelief."Positive again.How is this happening, Oreo?""Fuck!!" She tossed the sticks when the third one showed positive too.It was already 10 AM, and she had a meeting with Rafael at 11 AM. The initial idea was to tell him about her moving out plan sooner or later during the day, depending on how his mood was. But now she had to see his reaction about her pregnancy too.She struggled to focus on her daily business and breakfast, wondering if he would want the baby aborted. She didn't want to be pregnant, but the thought that he might want the baby gone angered her.It started drizzling lightly when she went down to the kitchen to gether morning coffee. She saw her grandma on the other end of the front yard and walked over, debating if she should ask her what would be the best thing to do, now that she was pregnant."Oh, didn't know you were still at home. Antonio wanted to

“What do you mean you won’t be going? It’s not that jackass’s party. It’s in the loving memory of my wife.” Antonio tried to convince Ruhi about the party on Thursday night while eating dinner with grandma.“I don’t want to see him again.”“Come on, Ruhi. You don’t have to see him or talk to him. Besides, Anna will be flying in tonight. She will keep you company tomorrow.”“Who’s Anna?”“My god-daughter. She’s as precious to me as you and Rafael are. She takes care of my Italian sect of business. I will be going to the airport to receive her after we finish eating. You can come with me if you want.”Ruhi felt grandma appearto be a little reservedwhen Antonio talkedabout Anna.“I’d love to. This Panzanella is out of the world, grandma!”“So is this pasta,” Antonio added.&ldq

A feeling of helplessness washed over Ruhi as she walked out of the event room. She headed to the bathroom as large tears pooled in her eyes whenshe thought about Rafael with some other woman."Mira!" She tried to avoid whoever it was, but her coworker called her again and followed her."There you are. We are heading to the memorial hallway, wanna join?" Sarah asked her while the others were going downstairs to the hallway. It was a place filled with large portraits of Francesca in her ballerina costume. Antonio had bought the hotel after her death and had the hallway dedicated to her.Ruhi decided it was better to go with her coworkers than crying in the bathroom and coming out with bloodshot eyes and ruined makeup."What's the matter? You okay?""Oh yeah, totally. That crab dip was super spicy, made me tear up." She carefully wiped the tiny droplets at the corner of her eyes with her finger and followed Sarah."But

"Rafael! What the hell are you doing?" Ruhi threw punches at his back as he carried her out of the room."Taking you home, of course.""Put me down! Everyone is watching us.""And why do I care? You are my wife." Rafaelignored the onlookers' eyes as he walked down the hallway to the elevator."I care, you asshole! I don't want to be known as your stupid wife."He slung her down once he walked into the elevator and pushed her against the wall panel."Why? So you can flirt with wankers like Wade?" He growled next to her ear, anger flashing in his warm brown eyes."That's none of your business. You brought thatlong-logged Czech modelwith you. So you shouldn't even be talking."He caught her off-guard by pulling her close andpinning her against his muscled chest whileclaiming her lips hungrily. Ruhi bit him on the lower lip and pushed him away without giving a chance to her treacherousbody to mel

Both the dogs came out running as Rafael dropped Ruhi to her feet and locked the front door."What the hell, guys? She left you. Aren't feeling even a tiny bit mad at her?" He asked his dogs, but they ignored him and rubbed their noses against Ruhi's knees."Aww, I missed you guys. You are soo soft but you never sit next to me." She said to Chunky Monkey and hugged him. "So now you come to me? After I left the house... you are just like an asshole I know." The dog licked her ear and woofed at Rafael."Enough you two. Off you go! She's mine." He picked Ruhi off the floor and pulled her close."No, I'm not!" She turned and hurried to the door, but he caged her between his arms. His breath fanning her cheekbrought prickles all over her skin, and her body ached with need.She wondered if people were hornier at this stage of their pregnancy or because it had been a while.Her body put up a tough fight against her willpower, with t

It was a foggy morning when Rafael woke up at the crack of the dawn to work out as usual. He felt tiredlike he barely slept for an hour. A delicious tingle ran down his body when he realized he indeed slept only for a couple of hours. It wasn't an ordinary morning when he always woke up alone in his bed.Ruhi had thrown the blanket on the floor and wrapped her legs around his. He felt her warm breath on his face and her lips on his forehead.His head was resting on her ample cleavage while her hands were around him in a protective hug."My baby!" He smiled at her peacefully sleeping face and untangled her arms around him.Feeling the loss of warmth, she cuddled closer and rested her head on his shoulder. He was soon slipping into a blissful daze because ofher nearness."Damn!" Giving up on the idea to go down to the gym, heput his arm around her, pulling her to his chest.He felt strangely at peace watching her sleep. Reachin
