Semua Bab The Affair Baby : Bab 41 - Bab 50

Blaine stood outside the glass window with both hands in his pocket, watching Ariel inside the ICU. She looked helpless, lying there.Now, with her eyes closed, she looked exactly like the shy girl he had first met. The one he would have moved the earth to take care of. The one he searched for for more months after, but had no idea she worked in the company, until Ruby showed up, creating a scene, and he saw the careful trap he had foolishly walked into those three days at the wedding party.He watched Ariel now, slight and breathing through the oxygen tube, and his heart still broke for her. His stupid heart still wanted to find who did this to her and deal with them. He wanted to sit by her side till she woke up, until the new fire returned to her eyes and she looked at him condescendingly so he could go back to deeply hating her. He noticed the bathroom door opening, and then Sullivan walked out with a glass bowl and some wipes. He sat beside Ariel, and began to wipe her dow

Olivia was falling asleep, her head on Blaine’s shoulder. But as soon as he stepped into the lounge on the first floor of their unit, she lifted her head up and began to cry.“Hey,” Blaine moved his head back to look at her, and she twisted her body away from him, stretching her little hands out. “Mima. Mima.” She said,His brows came together. “Mama? You want your mother?” he asked, looking at her eyes searchingly. But she was not looking at him as her eyes roamed the space.“Where is Ophelia?” Blaine made great efforts to say in a low voice so he did not frighten her. But he felt far from calm emotions towards his wife and her nonchalant attitude at the moment,“Upstairs.” The housekeeper stepped forward, and bowed. “Upstairs?” He stared in disbelief. Had she not heard what had happened? How could she not care for her daughter even though she did not care about him?Their daughter clearly needed her now, but again she was being neglectful.The housekeeper was watching him, and h

Blaine was turning to leave when he heard something crash behind him. He turned around quickly to see Ophelia had sent something flying to the television screen and destroyed it.“I will not let you treat me like this, Blaine Tucker.” She screamed, and Blaine began to hear footsteps running up the staircase. “Do you hear me? I will not let you throw me out like trash so you can have your wh*re raise my daughter, when you have no tangible reason.“No reason.”“No reason.” She fired. “You have no reason to divorce me. I have been a devoted wife to you since we got married. I have never cheated on you. I tolerated the insult of you having a wh*re.”“But you hit our staff.” He yelled back, finally losing it. “How could you do that to a young girl, especially one that is so good to our daughter she thinks that is her mother?”“You will not insult me in the presence of your family.” She yelled, shaking her head. And Blaine became aware that his family was here now and watching him. They m

The first thing I felt when I opened my eyes was surprise. I was not dead? After my very vivid memory of Blaine and me that weekend, there was nothing after that. A stretch of white and white nothingness.So opening my eyes to the bright ceiling of a hospital ward was a surprise. I felt a warm hand in mine and turned to see a shock of straight blonde hair.I tried to speak but suddenly realized how tight and hot my throat felt, like I had been walking in a desert for months. I swallowed, becoming aware of the oxygen mask sitting on the bridge of my nose.How badly had I been hurt? As I lay back there, I realized I still had feelings in my limbs. So bending my fingers around his, I squeezed.I felt Kan twitch, and then settled back into sleep again. Then his head flew up and he was staring at me.“Sweetheart.” He covered my face with his and kissed my forehead. “My sweetheart. What are you feeling now? Does it hurt anywhere?”A tear dropped down the side of my eye as I watched him,

I watched Kan stand up and place the bouquet by my bedside. His eyes were all red now, and he could not meet my eyes.“Our son is fine, Ariel.” He stressed the first word. “Your father has stepped into full-time care for him, and the nanny is almost having a mini-vacation with nothing to do.”Tears welled up in my eyes at the image. Maybe Oliver would have a better life than me after all, something I had always desperately hoped for. He would get to have a loving grandfather, even though I never got to experience my father.“Do you want to speak to him?” Kan asked, his back still turned to me. I wiped my eyes quickly. Oliver immediately starts shrieking anytime he thinks I am hurt.“I don't want him to see me like this,” I said, even though I knew it may take some time before I got out of here.Kan finally turned around. “You know we cannot bring him here to come visit you?”I nodded. I did not expect them to. The only time Oliver has left our house since he was born was a few day
