Semua Bab Accidentally Married: Bab 281 - Bab 290

"You want to impress me? Why would you want to do that?" Jessica asked. She was flustered but was trying her best to keep her cool. The warm water from the tap helped stabilize her body temperature. she wanted to jump around and squeal but she could not do it in front of him. "I don't know, maybe to win your favor. We started on the wrong foot" Xavier said. He was trying his very best to steady his breathing. He wanted to win her favor so badly. It was not like her favor would help him win contracts or have more money but he wanted to always feel comfortable with her. The thought of the divorce scared him so greatly but he was the one who suggested it. She had told him previously that she was not bothered about divorce. What if he was the only one feeling this way about the situation? Why if she accept whatever the situation would be? "You have my favor then" she smiled as she turned to face him. "Oh the aroma is so lovely," Roselle said. Her words broke the staring competition

"If I'm the father should I not have a say over this?" Burke asked. The shock of what he had just heard could not leave his face. How could she think of doing something like this? "Maybe you can make decisions like that when you are the one who carries the baby" "Okay here's what we will do, give birth to the baby and give it to me. I'll take care of the baby" he said. If he did not know about the baby he wouldn't have cared but now that he knew he had to make sure the baby received as much love as he lacked growing up. "I won't carry this baby," she said tapping the table. "Why?" he said almost crying. "Because carrying this baby means I would devote at least a year of my life to tending to it and at least six months to get back into my shape. That's a long time" she said in a tone that suggests that he should know this and not ask her such questions. "And?" he asked confusion at what she was driving at. "And I don't have that time. No man would approach me if I am pregnant

Emma entered the maternity center of the hospital. She wanted to go all the way and she was going to make sure of it. The hospital was not the same one she usually went to. She changed hospitals when she heard that Dawson Delgado was hospitalized there. She might have a real chance of running into Xavier there. After a brief consultation with the doctor they set a date for the procedure and she took her leave. Since the day was just beginning she decided to wait in the lobby. She might get to see him today if she got lucky. A few minutes after she sat down she watched as Jessica came in the hospital and walked right to the elevator. She waited for the door to open before she went in. "Did she come alone?" she said loudly to herself. Her questions were soon answered when Xavier walked in a few minutes later. They came together? She felt her jaw tightened but she tried her best to ignore the situation. She stood up and brushed her skirt before she patted her head down. She walked to

Jessica and Xavier spent a little more time with Dawson until they both decided to go to work. The air between them was awkward because Dawson had teased them both saying he could smell love. Claiming he was old enough to recognize one when he saw it. Xavier offered to drive Jessica to work even though the air was tense. The road trip was quieter than one would think. "Your friend," Xavier said out of the blue. "My friend?" she asked turning to him. She was glad he broke the silence. It was better for them to talk to each other than to allow the air to loom heavy on their necks. "Yeah, the one at the police station that time," he said. "You mean Emma?" she said. The name alone left a bitter aftertaste in her mouth and she hated it. She had not seen what Emma did to her coming. She always regarded her as a friend so she wondered why she did that. "So that was her name?" Xavier said looming onto the road with a little morning traffic. "Did you block her?" he asked. When Emma had

"I know you are very busy and I did not want to take up much of your time but the lady downstairs told me I must deliver it myself so here I am. I will drop this here and be out of your hair" she ranted. "It's lunchtime why would anybody be busy?" he asked as he stood up from behind his desk. "I thought you were having a meeting with Brian?" she asked as she watched him walk towards her. "He was asking me out to lunch," he said and she nodded. "Are you not going to sit? This is your first time here and you are in a hurry to leave?" he asked as he sat down on one of the chairs. She looked at him as if she was searching for extra approval before she took her seat. She sat on the same sofa as he did but she put a little space between them. "This is the lunch I brought for you," she said dropping it on the table before them. "Have you had lunch?" he asked. "Not yet, I plan to have some when I get back to the mansion" she replied. "We can share this one," he said nonchalantly as h
