Diana's POV
I heard the loud footsteps right behind me. I didn't need to look back to know that it was my husband, Ryan. He had been acting really suspicious lately, and I didn't have the time to confront him.
I looked at him through the mirror, since he was right at my back. I couldn't tell if he was angry at me, or he just needed some time alone. There was something right in his hand while I wondered what was there
There was something I knew for sure, and that was me not starting the conversation.
"Sign it." He placed the envelope right on the desk that was at my front. I looked at him, while his hands was inside his waiting for me to open up the envelope. I could tell he was angry with me now!
The way he was positioned, and the way he face was. He was really angry with me.
That was so unlike of him. I opened the envelope slowly, while I brought out the paper that was right in it, with the first two heading catching my interest. "Divorce papers?" I whispered using my high hitched voice.
I stood up from my chair, and pushed it in. There was barely any space between the both of us.
"Why are you doing this? You can't just walk up here and tell me to sign this. We are married, and we barely have misunderstanding." I guess I must have heard the right thing about him. Was he really cheating on me just like the way it was in the rumours I heard?
"Explain this." He brought out his phone, while I heard the ping notification from my phone I was holding. The tears were starting to gather right in my eyes, hoping this would be some sort of pranks.
It looked real. I could see the pain in his eyes. I could see how much he was trying to hold some things backs. I opened my phone checking the picture he sent to me.
He had every right to call for a divorce, but he should seek the truth about it first. I wanted to tell him, but I couldn't bring up the courage to do so so I just decided to let go.
"This! I wanted to tell you about this. I was assaulted, I couldn't bring myself to tell you also. You can see signs of me struggling! Take a look at the pictures there." I sighed. It was a really dreadful night for me.
I placed the phone aside. I thought things would get better once he could try to understand things from my point of view, but I was really wrong.
"Don't touch me with those filthy hands. When did you start keeping secrets from me? You think I am going to believe those lies?" He chuckled slightly, with the slight hint of pain right in his voice.
"Not like you are entirely clean!." I snapped back. "I've also been hearing things that you have been doing."
"Oh! You are trying to come up with something else! You are trying to justify your actions, right? Nothing will ever bring the both of us back together." He backed off a little bit from me.
"No! You should try to listen to me. That is what couples are, we get to listen to each other. This was all set-up to break the two of us. They will keep on doing this. You don't have to prove them right." I tried holding his hand while I sniffed. He placed his hands back into his pocket like I was some of plague.
"I already signed them. You should do the same thing also." He walked right out of me leaving me alone in a state of despair and confusion. This wasn't happening to me, right?
Thinking about it just made the matter worse. I could feel the pain right in my chest.
I struggled to reach the desk where the divorce letter was, "No way!" I picked up the paper again reading all what was in it! This was all a dream, right?
The anger and pain build up in me making me transfer the aggression to the little paper that was in my hand. I ruffled it and threw it across the room.
I stormed out of my room running after him as fast as I could. If someone has seen me the way I was. They would have thought I ran mad since my physical condition was just like my mental condition that moment.
"Wait! Where do you think you are going to?" He was all packed up already, with his luggages getting prepared to leave. He already planned all of this? I shouted so loud from the Grand stairs which I was standing on, which made him stop whatever he was doing at the sound of my voice.
"Where do you think I'm going to? Leaving the house for you since I know you are not going to do the same thing."
I rushed down from the stairs.
"Don't you feel bad for trying to leave me? We love each other." I tried so hard not to let the tears out of my eyes, but my emotions betrayed me.
"Oh? Love you? I guess I loosed interest. Do you know what happens after getting married to you? My father promised he was going to give me few shares. He did that few weeks ago, and I don't think I should be with you anymore." He mentioned avoiding my gaze. He looked at everywhere else except from where I was staying.
"Look at me and tell me you never loved me! Please." I took a deep breath thinking he would look at me.
"Do you still love me then? Why can't you look at me?" My breath hitched. He then slowly looked at me, and pushed me making me fall unto the floor.
"I didn't cheat on you, and I will never cheat on you." I cried out loud as my eyes got blurry watching him vanished from my eyes. He had always waited for an opportunity like this, and this was the best time that he could get to use it well.
My eyes started getting blurry, and it was not from the tears. I felt so uncomfortable, and dizzy. I fell unto the floor, and tried standing up again then lost balance while my eyes welcomed the darkness.
******
I slowly open my eyes, looking around my surroundings. I was met with the harsh glare of fluorescent lights above me, and the beeping of machines nearby.
I was on a hospital bed, surrounded by sterile white walls and the antiseptic smell of disinfectant. My mind was foggy, and my thoughts were jumbled. I tried to remember how I got here, but my memories were hazy and unclear.
I glanced down at my body, seeing the IV tubes and wires attached to my arms and chest. I felt a sense of panic rising up, but I forced myself to take slow, deep breaths. I needed to stay calm and try to piece together what happened.
"You shouldn't struggle to stand up." I heard that familiar voice right in the room. It was Richardson.
I inhaled sharply, "What happened to me?"
"You fainted. The doctor is yet to let us know why you fainted." He informed me, and I just nodded. I remembered what happened before I fainted, and I was still finding it hard to believe he left just like that.
I feel like he was still going to come back. "I just want to sit up." I muttered under my breath, while he walked up to me and help me up sit up.
I saw a huge bandage that was tied around my leg, I must have injured my leg when I fell earlier.
The creaking sound of the door distracted the both of us from our discussion. It was the doctor who walked in. He had a smile on his face, and I found it suspicious. I frowned on the seeing the smile on his face
"After taking some tests, we found out that you are pregnant." The doctor informed me. No! He must be kidding, right?
"No! You should conduct the test again. You might be wrong somewhere." I raised my voice a little bit higher. The doctor squinted his eyes in confusion.
"I told you to take the test again! I can't be pregnant in a situation like this." My emotions were starting to take over me just like before. Richie geld on to me very tightly.
I laughed silently in disbelief finding it hard to believe. "Thank you doctor." He managed to say to the doctor.
"We will let you know if there is anything more." The doctor stated, and walked out of the room leaving me in a blank state. I was still lost and confused.
I felt the warm hand right on my shoulder gi
ving me some sort of reassurance.
"Marry me!" He said calmly jolting me out of my thoughts.
Epilogue.*FIVE YEARS LATER*Diana settled into the garden bench, watching Ryan chase their rambunctious six-year-olds around the lawn. She couldn't help but smile at his playful antics."Mommy, come play with us!" Alicia begged."Mommy's pregnant, sweetie," Ryan reminded her. "Let's find a game that doesn't require running."Sophia, their eldest, suggested, "How about we play hide-and-seek? Mommy can count!""Mommy is really tired." Diana replied to her daughter. She watched as Ryan kept on playing with her kids. Alicia who was the child of Richardson was now a daughter to her.Kian and Elena went on a vacation for the past two years and they were yet to come back.Diana's thoughts returned to the present as Ryan wrapped his arms around her. "You're glowing," he whispered."Pregnancy agrees with me," she replied, smiling.Their love story was one of perseverance. Separated by circumstance, they had held onto memories and letters. Reunited, they cherished every moment.As the sun dipp
Chapter 143 (FINALE)Elena's POV.My feet tapped on the hallway slowly. I was at the front of the operation room where Kian was bring operated on. This wasn't my intentions, and I was really scared that something bad might get to happen to him at this point.I hoped everything was going to be good at the end. I couldn't afford to lose, I don't think I would ever be myself in that hot to happen. That was why I needed him to stand up!I saw Kian's family coming from the Elevator which was on the hallway.Kian's family gathered around me, their faces etched with worry and accusation. I knew what must be going on in his father's mind right now."How could you let this happen?" Rita snapped at me. Visible anger in her eyes. If anyone had the right to scold me, it shouldn't be someone like her. She was the one who had entertained Clarke and things turned out to be really bad for us. She wasn't a saint. I felt a sting, but remained calm. "I tried to protect him. She had a knife...I couldn
Chapter 142Elena's POV.Without a doubt, I could easily tell who was responsible for all of these."I am going to deal with her myself. You just have to be calm." I heard Kian saying. I was really calm right now. I didn't want stuff like this to ruin the good moments that the both of us just had together. I was done putting up with her nonsense, and I wasn't going to take any sort of disrespect from her anymore. I was not really surprised by her actions.I could see my reputation getting tarnished right in my face. A lot of brands might not want to work with me, thinking I would be a bad influence on their modeling work.I would make sure I am not the one going down alone. She would go down alongside me, and I have to make sure about that."Do you know where she is right now?" I questioned him. "There is no need for me to find her. Just one call and she would show herself to me. That is how much to show that she is obsessed with me." Kian stated."Ohhhh!" I hit his elbow, teasing h
Chapter 141*TWO DAYS AFTER* Elena's POV.It was just two days after all of these had happened. I was in the shower together with Kian. It was in the morning, and we decided that we were going to take the shower together."What about your dad? You haven't talked with him yet?" I questioned him, and I saw the chang in his mood. I knew what he wanted to say already.I took in a huge sigh. I knew he just have gotten into some sort of fight with his father, but that doesn't mean he shouldn't even get to talk with his father or something."Let's not discuss about that for now. Let's just have fun together." His hand trailed down my chest This time looking at me straight into my eyes, but I was busy looking at his body up and down, using my eyes to survey every ab, and admiring all the muscle he had that seemed to be free of any form of fat. Of course, he was always working out. It had intoxicated me already, making my p*ssy more wet before I knew it; his strong chest was already in fron
Chapter 140Elena's POV.I think it was time for him to know the truth now. I have kept it hidden from him all these while. I knew he was really going to find it hard to believe, but we could go to the hospital and take a DNA test if he doesn't believe."The child is really yours!" I looked at him as he then looked at me back in the eyes stopping the car abruptly. I know that he must be really shocked."What did you just say? Are you kidding?""You are the real father of my child. How can you believe the story I had told you about the club?" I scoffed with a soft smile on my face."Do you think this is some matter we can joke with? There is nothing funny with this."I said with a straight face but it doesn't look like she was joking. She was really serious with whatever she was saying.I bet he must be so confused right now and I honestly wasn't going to blame him. It was normal for him to get confused. "How did it happen? Does that mean we had sex before? I...I...I... don't understan
Chapter 139Kian's POV.I saw as my father's face dropped. After hearing the news that I had told him, The least thing that he could do was to shout at me, scold me, and get me off his company.He blinked his eyes several times, and I could see the look in his face, finding it very hard to believe that he got fooled by the both of us. "Are you joking? What the hell are you saying?" He questioned again, trying to confirm if we were not saying trash or sort.He could probably want to take back his shares from me. It wouldn't be a bad thing to have another source of income."Everything you have been showing casing to me all this time is fake." He scoffed, questioning me."Yes!" I replied to him bluntly."Why are you telling me this now? Do you think telling me about this will let me change my mind, and then you can go scot-free?" My father questioned."No! That was not the reason why I told you about it." I answered him, and he then let out another huge sigh."My wife was being threaten
