Lahat ng Kabanata ng Auctioned To My Mafia Lord: Kabanata 101 - Kabanata 110

Ava's POV“Pregnant?” Fernando echoed. The word tore across the dinner table, resonating through the room. I swirled my head in his direction at the sound of his voice.Fernando jumped straight out of his chair like he was knocked over, almost tripping. He rushed toward me, looking somewhat let down like his world had suddenly crashed. “You are pregnant?” he asked, and I could see the pain in his eyes. I could only imagine how much this would hurt him. The hope I had seen in his eyes a moment ago was gone, replaced by immeasurable disappointment. “Ava,” he mumbled, wanting an answer. I nodded, “Yes, I am.”His hands dropped to his side, and tears danced in his eyes, “I'm sorry, Fernando.”It felt like I was breaking his heart again and now that I knew that he was a good person I felt guilty for it. We were supposed to get married but now I was carrying the baby of the man who he loathed.He stepped back and grabbed a hold of the seat to steady himself like he'd fall if he didn't.

Miguel's POV “Wait a second,” Celine rushed, staring at me, "You're 'him'?” she asked with emphasis.“Him?" I asked narrowing my eyes. "What are you talking about?”Celine smiled more sweetly, “Never mind.”I didn't push it, knowing where Ava was was all that mattered to me, “So? Will you tell me where she is?” I asked.“Oh! I wished I could. I don't know. She took off a few days ago, and she never told me where she was going.”I relaxed my shoulders, feeling disappointed. This had turned out to be another dead end, and I didn't know what to do with that.“Thanks, Celine. If you hear from her please let me know. It is very important.”She smiled softly and I could almost pick an excited emotion in her eyes but I knew she had told what she could. “You're welcome. Anyway, I gotta go. I'll see you around.”I bobbed my head quietly and she walked by me. Quickly, I took out my phone and texted Perez to follow her. She might know something she didn't want to spill and the last thing I want

Ava's POV Fernando poured me a glass of wine and gently passed it to me. “Thanks.” I picked up the glass and took a long sip before digging into breakfast, “Wow! It's delicious,” I mumbled, stuffing myself while he watched me.We finished our food a while later, and Fernando took out two rolled pieces of paper, “Pick one,” he said.“What's in it?” I asked, raising a brow.“You’ll see. Just pick one,” he urged, resting his head on his hands as he watched me closely.“Okay,” I reached a hand to the pieces, moving my hand from left to right.“Just pick one,” he urged, laughing after waiting for a few minutes.I took a deep breath and finally settled for the paper on the left. Fernando took the other and tucked it in his pocket while I unwrapped the paper, and read it.“What does it say?” Fernando asked.“A picnic date,” I answered, nibbling my lips, “That sounds fun.”“Should I take that as a yes?” he questioned and I nodded.“Yes. Let's do it!” I exclaimed.“Great. Let me get things r

Ava's POVMiguel? Short, and not exactly blessed with looks? Was Penelope joking? I couldn't believe my ears. I glanced at her, and she appeared dead serious but I was sure she was only teasing me. It had to be a joke.It sounded like one —and obviously, it was a terrible joke so I laughed it off. If anyone knew how handsome Miguel was it had to be her after all she was his mother.“You tell a really terrible joke, Penelope,” I laughed it off, filling my mouth with more almonds.“Terrible joke?” She repeated, acting clueless, and honestly, she sounded believable like she meant every word she had said to me. Her poker face game was solid, and the only reason I wasn't the least convinced was because she was his mother.She knew what Miguel looked like and knowing that, there was no way she could say he was unattractive but hammering on the fact that he was short and unattractive didn't just make any sense to me.“Yeah, terrible joke,” I repeated, “You surely cannot mean that about Mi

Ava's POVTime passed by like the wind, and before I knew it seven months had gone by already, and my day of delivery was quickly approaching. The doctor had informed us that any moment from now the baby would come. I was excited, and with each day that went by I was growing more and more excited to meet my baby. The excitement was contagious, even Penelope was hasty and sometimes it felt like Fernando was even more excited than both of us which was also easing.He had been a big help to me in the last few months, and I couldn't deny how much I adored him for it. I didn't know what I would have done without him.As promised, the last few months with him were peaceful and calm. He didn't put any pressure on me just as he said and we were doing pretty well.We were like best friends but I knew deep down that he was still waiting for me but somehow he didn't let it get in the way of us.Our friendship had grown to be my biggest support throughout the months that passed.There had been a
