Why Not Me?

IVYI had been eavesdropping on everything from a perfect corner up the stairs, but as soon as I heard Alex telling her guests to come upstairs, I ran up.How could she have forgotten that the room she asked them to take the items to was just beside mine? Was Alexa trying to get me caught?I knew she didn’t want me here, but I had already pleaded with her. No one should see me. If news ever got out there that I was alive and hiding here, I would be doomed. Donald Shell wouldn’t mind bringing down this entire building just to get me, regardless of the fact that there were three cops out there guiding the building.“So he is threatening her,” I said to myself, shaking my head.Donald Shell seemed to derive joy from making the lives of women he came across a living hell. First, it was Lina Barry, and then me, and now, Alexa Silver.If Alexa’s phone hadn’t fallen and I hadn’t helped her in picking it up even though she never appreciated it, I wouldn’t have seen the text message from Do

Deeper Admonishment

MARKVector and I drove to Brent’s office because he was too busy to come down to my own office or house, and I didn’t mind.I hadn’t even really been to my company for some days now. The car drive was very silent and I felt as though Vector had something in his chest that he would like to say to me but wasn’t speaking.Since I started driving again, I had been using Cannon Dexter’s services less, but I still retained him just in case.“What is it?” I had to ask Vector because I wasn’t comfortable with the awkward silence, especially as I could feel that Brent had something he wanted to say to me.“Huh?” Vector asked dumbly.“You want to say something, Vector. Since I picked you up I have been having the feeling, so you might as well go ahead and say it,” I explained even though I felt as though Vector already heard and understood my question the first time.“I don’t have anything to say,” Vector lied.“Don’t play this game with me, Vector,” I warned, almost snapping. “If you knew yo

Mine, Not Ours

ALEXAI stared at the baby items in the room that they had been kept, unable to take my eyes off them.They were all beautiful.I didn’t know how Mark got to know exactly what I wanted, but nothing was missed, and without even checking through their prize tags, I knew that they were very expensive.For three days now, I had been coming right here, standing by the door, and staring at every item.I kept telling myself that it was time to start setting up the baby’s nursery, although not in this particular room, but I really couldn’t bring myself to doing it, and I couldn’t tell why.Maybe it was because each time I stared at the items as though I was seeing them for the very first time, I was reminded that they came from Mark Ronaldo.Shirley and Reyna’s presence helped me understand what Mark had done for me discreetly, and a part of me was grateful to him, but that didn’t mean that I wanted him in my child’s life. From the very moment I was told about the pregnancy, I never wanted h

Unlimited Access

ALEXAI stood there, unable to move or speak for a few seconds because I was still in shock.Mark was holding the paper to me and the words were clear and bold. This meant that Mark Ronaldo would have unlimited access to my life and that of my child.My child…I never wanted him to be a part of it. He had created another life without me already. He was quick enough to move on to another woman, just as he had always done. Since I fell in love with Mark Ronaldo, he had done nothing but hurt me.“Alexa,” Mark called when I wasn’t saying anything.“Why would you do this?” I found myself asking him because I needed to know.“Because I want to be a part of my child’s life, Alexa,” Mark said, sounding surprised that I was asking that question.He sounded as though I should know that already.“No, Mark,” I countered, shaking my head.“Excuse me?” Mark was confused.“You are not doing this because you genuinely want to be in my child’s life,” I stated. “You are doing this because you want to

We Are Parents Now

MARKAlexa was the most stubborn woman I knew, my goodness!Noelle already told me that she was broke, and that made me understand that that was the reason she wasn’t already looking for a lawyer to fight me. If she had the money, she would have fought tooth and nail to ensure that I never came anywhere close to them.For the life of me, I couldn’t understand why Alexa Silver hated me this much even to the point where she was willing to keep my child away from me. If I didn’t know about this until the child was born, I would have been pained because I would have missed moments like this…moments that could not be gotten back.And for that, I was slightly upset with Alexa.This was one of the times I was grateful for my money, power, and influence, otherwise, Alexa would have won.From the corner of my eye, I could see that she was still boiling with rage even as we made our way to the hospital. We were already five minutes late, but I tried to drive carefully because I didn’t want any

Unrelenting Hatred

MARK“Why aren’t you talking, Mark, huh?” Alexa asked me, glaring at me. “Does she know you are here fighting to be where you are not wanted?” She asked further.Alexa was enraged, but was she also jealous? Or was it just my imaginations?Anyway, I couldn’t exactly tell and that wasn’t what was important right now. Unfortunately, I couldn’t answer her question.I didn’t even know that she was going to ask me something like this. She sounded like Vector for a minute, and somehow, it dawned on me that I wouldn’t be able to continue running from this. I would have to face it.But certainly not at this very moment.“I don’t want to talk about Mona,” I responded tightly.But of course, Alexa was too stubborn to drop the conversation.“Why not, Mark?” She asked me angrily.“Because I don’t want to talk about it and I am driving,” I responded even though the driving wasn’t going to prevent me from answering if it was something that I could answer.“Don’t give me that, Mark,” Alexa warned st

What Doesn't Apply

MARKAfter Alexa had succeeded in shattering my heart all over again; something that no woman had ever done, she walked into the hospital.I thought I was heartbroken when Mona decided to go with her boyfriend over what we had back then in Toronto, but I realized that I wasn’t even heartbroken…just sad.This right here was the true heartbreak, and if I didn’t want to be a dad, this would have been the moment I would have turned around, gotten back into my car, and drove away and never looked back.But I didn’t.It was what Alexa wanted, but again, I wasn’t going to let her have it.I had already made up my mind to be here regardless of whatever she did or said, and I meant it.“You will have to develop a thick skin if you don’t want her to keep hurting you like this, Mark,” I told myself.And after that, I shook it off and followed her into the hospital, but something had shifted in my mind.Bringing up conversation about Mona made me realize that I couldn’t continue running away from

One And Only Chance

IVYAfter being a hundred percent sure that I was alone now, I decided to go downstairs to get myself something to drink.“I don’t know why Alexa couldn’t even keep the maids,” I muttered to myself, but I almost realized why immediately. “Yikes, she doesn’t even have the money to keep them. She is very broke,” I added to myself.I didn’t expect to return from where I had been only to get back to doing everything all by myself.When I lived here before I was shipped to the mental home, I didn’t have to lift a finger because there was more than enough domestic staff to help carry out the responsibilities. All I needed to do was wake up, get dressed, and live the life of the daughter of a man with wealth. Unfortunately, Alexa couldn’t keep up that standard.But then again, maybe it was a good thing that she didn’t have the domestic workers anymore because they would have surely known I was here, and that could be implicating for me. “I wish I could go out, even if it is for a second, an

Surreal Moment

MARKI expected Alexa to immediately tell the doctor that she didn’t want me here at all, since it had been explained to the both of us that the hospital had every right to keep me out if she didn’t want me here regardless of the paper from the court.But she hadn’t.For the life of me, I couldn’t fathom why Alexa had told the doctor to let me stay.It was very, very strange, and I just couldn’t get over the confusion.But for now, I had to put it at the back of my head and focus on the doctor’s checkup on Alexa.“You have to lie on your back and completely still, as you already know, Alexa,” the doctor told her.He was about to begin checking on her and as I stayed close by and watched, it began to feel like a dream to me. I had always known I wanted to be a dad, but standing right here and watching the woman carrying my child for the very first time in my life was surreal, and maybe it was because I didn’t expect it this way. If we were married and my wife had told me she was preg

The Truth

MARK“Hey, Noelle,” I said the moment I was able to get to a good corner to talk and picked up.“Today is Alexa’s antenatal appointment,” Noelle stated.“Yes, I know. You don’t think I would forget something as important as this, right?” I asked Noelle.I wasn’t even upset with her for asking that kind of question. Noelle didn’t understand what this moment meant for me. She had absolutely no idea.I only had to look at the list once and every single appointment was committed to my memory, and I would not miss any of it for anything in the world. Not even my company could stop me.“We are at the hospital,” I added.Noelle sighed with deep relief.“Thank goodness,” Noelle said with so much relief that I could feel it.“Why is that?” I had to ask.“I didn’t want Alexa to be here on her own, Mark,” Noelle said. “I am just relieved that you are there with her as well,” she added.“Noelle, this is my child as well. I am not doing Alexa a favor by being here. I am simply being responsible f
