I slowly opened my eyes, groggily taking in my surroundings.

The hospital room was a blur, but the pain in my head was all too real. I tried to sit up, but a sharp, stabbing pain shot through my head, forcing me back onto the pillow.

One of the nurses rushed over to me, her face etched with concern.

"Welcome back, Iris," she said, her voice soft and soothing. "You were hit by a car outside the hospital. But don't worry, you're going to be okay."

I tried to remember what had happened, but my memories were hazy and unclear.

And then, like a tidal wave, it all came flooding back - Clara's tears, her apology, and her shocking announcement.

I felt like I'd been punched in the gut, and I couldn't breathe.

The doctor came over to me, his face serious and concerned. "Iris, I'm glad to see you're awake," he said.

"You're going to be okay. You'll be discharged tomorrow, but if you want to see your husband, we can arrange for you to visit him."

I felt a wave of emotion wash over me, and I s

  • The billionaire's Feud   Chapter 24

    Mrs. Robinson's POVI looked out at the city lights behind the tall windows of my office, and each of them reminded me of what I had built with my own hand, my empire. No one had given me authority, I had taken it. And I would be damned if a dainty girl like Iris destroyed everything that I had fought so hard to build.That girl had no idea what she was getting herself into. Sweet, shy, obedient on the outside. But I saw the way she was now beginning to push back, the way her eyes no longer folded in submission.Alex had given her bravery. Fatal. Yes, Highly fatal.I leaned back in my velvet chair, spinning a glass of red wine, recalling her father. Senseless man. He'd once believed he was my equal in business. I ruined him without effort, stole everything from him until even his wedding fell through. His weakness disgusted me. That's why I'd wanted Iris for Nicholas in the first place. To remind the Arojo family that I will never lose.Now, Clara… dear Clara. She was a wort

    The phone call was finished, but fury was still entwined in Mrs. Robinson's breast like a snake.How guts did Iris need to speak with me in this way? How audacity did that cheeky young man or what is his name ? Alex, have to yell at me? In my world, disrespect wasn't allowed. No, it was destroyed.Mrs. Robinson was saying all these when she still held her angriness.She stood up from her chair, the soles of her heels clicking on the smooth marble as she paced her study. Her mind moved faster than her feet, already planning a scheme.Iris thought that grieving made her a force to be reckoned with? She thought that Alex's presence around her kept her safe? Fools, both of them. Mrs Robin said.The Robinsons built empires on top of burying their enemies alive, sometimes literally, sometimes not.She pressed a hidden button on her desk. Within minutes, the maid appeared in the room, hair still rumpled, lips puffed from the aftereffects of her own play with her friends.Mrs. Robinson

    That was the last statement I heard from my mum that day before she left. Alex and I were still talking and laughing after my mum left and she asked questions about her to know more about my family. I told him everything but instead he made it a fun chat with him, after some hours, he received an urgent call about his grandma and he rushed out. He promised to come back after some hours. I was still laying down on the hospital bed staring at the television showing some advertisement and some news that made me not feel bored. After some minutes of staring, I took my eyes on the show when I heard some news that there was a car accident along the nearest road not far from the hospital. A woman and a driver had a car accident, when the camera showed the woman, I saw my mum with blood stained over her clothes. What? Is that my mum? I asked myself the question. Staring at the television, I don't understand what I was seeing and I was there in shocked. I was still shocked w

    What? What's going on here? Alex shouted.I couldn't see Alex clearly but I can hear his voice, I'm getting weaker and weaker that my eyes were closed slowly. Alex moved closer to hold me but I dropped my breath.Iris, please hang in there. I will take you to the hospital….Alex rushed me up and that is all I could remembered.Whosoever that did this will definitely pay for it, he said banging the Nicholas's door with his legs.I was rushed to the hospital and the doctor attended to me very fast, thinking I might have lost the baby.I woke up the following day, still laying down on the hospital bed. I didn't see anyone around that I can recognize and I'm very scared if I might have lost my child.I wanted to start crying but I just have to hold the tears because I don't want anyone to notice me again.After some minutes, a nurse passed and I called her attention to ask her questions. Please is my baby okay? I asked trying to act stronger for my child.Yes, your baby is good but let me

    I woke up very early, I don't have any plans yet but I just reminded myself that I still need to leave this house. I went to the bathroom to take my shower, I was inside the bathroom when I felt the slightly pain in my stomach. I moved to the door to feel relaxed, I can feel the baby moved and I tried to touch it but when I felt another pain that I can't hold it than to sit on the floor, the pain dazed me off and I don't know when I screamed out my voices. I cried out, feeling the baby wanted to come out, I beginning to ask myself some questions that I couldn't find an answer to it again. What did I eat? What is going on with my baby? What happened overnight? What did Clara did to my child? Was my door opened? OMG, did Clara poisoned my food? I was asking myself all these questions for some minutes and I could feel my baby stopped moving, I wanted to check if my baby is still alive or not but I don't know how. I screamed out again but nobody could hear me, I screamed Nichol
