All Chapters of Chasing Back My Pregnant Ex-Wife : Chapter 11 - Chapter 18

“What do you think you're about doing, Serina?!” The voice yelled, spreading shrills through my pulsing veins. It wasn't Austin; his voice has nothing to be scared about. Instead it was Nikolai, standing right before me looking at me so furiously my heart began to tremble in its ribcage. How? How did he end up before me?! The last time I checked, I was trying to jump over the window even though I was heavily pregnant, I was ready to risk it but he was here already. Austin whom I thought was blocking the door was seated on the floor, both hands palming his face in a saddened manner. “I'm doing what I should do. I'm doing something just so I won't end up with you again. Understood? Now, leave. Leave me the hell alone, Romano!” I shouted at the top of my voice, my eyes flashing with extreme anger as I pointed the exit to him. As expected, he didn't move, or bulge. He stood there, and when he saw he's passed across the message he's going to stay rooted to the spot, he sighed

Nikolai’s PovI knew I was determined to soften her heart, but seeing her desperation to create distance between us, it made me feel like some creep. I didn’t expect her to treat me differently or welcome me with open arms after what I’d done to her. Matter of fact I think I more than deserved the hatred, the spite that rolled off her tongue when she addressed me, how she avoided physical contact with me as if I was a disease. What was ironic though was she seemed like someone who had forgotten about my entire existence and was only reminded of it when she found me at her doorstep. Was that how fast she moved on? Fuck, what about the pregnancy? Our child? Was she really going to nurture him on her own, without me in the picture? Serina had already stormed out of the kitchen but her words still remained, echoing loudly in my ears. She wanted me to leave. As much as I wanted to defy her, it was her house. Or rather, some new man’s—who also happened to be my lawyer.The mere thought

Serina's PovAs my driver carried my luggage out, I spared the living room a last glance to make sure I didn't forget anything before stepping out of the house to join him in the car.As the car pulled out of the parking lot and tore through the road, I stared out of the window. As my eyes wandered around, taking in the view, a strange feeling of unease settled in my stomach. After this business trip, I would be following Austin to thanksgiving in the next two days and I didn't know how to feel about that. I was just someone he took in and gave shelter. I'm afraid going with him to see his parents was a big step and not as casual as he might have thought it was. Moreso, I was pregnant. What if they saw me and come to conclusions? I sighed into my palm. I was helpless at this point. There was no going back, but maybe after getting through this, I would be able to summon the will to tell him about my plan to find a place of my own. In some way, I knew it was going to give Austin more

Serina's Pov I didn't move. I stood rigidly there for what seemed like an eternity before I shook my head, snapping back to my senses. Whatever this was, I didn't care, never would. I turned my face, pretend to casually go on about my day like I hadn't seen something bothering, when my legs crashed into a flower case I hadn't realized was on the way. I couldn't hold back the pain that instantly coursed through me and winched. When I realized I had made a mistake and Nikolai might hear, I covered my mouth but not only was the sound already out, the flower vase had lost its balance. Although it didn't crash, it fell on the floor, loud enough that it echoed in the hallway. And then, there was silence. I gnashed my eyes shut, my hands tightened by my sides. I considered taking off, heck, I had already taken a step forward but then I froze, like a deer caught in the headlights. It was already too late. Behind me came the person that wasn't supposed to see me. The thud of hi
