Alle Kapitel von Bound By His Child : Kapitel 31 – Kapitel 40

Jane's POV.I woke up with a stinging sensation in my eyes, my head banging like it would blow up in the next second. I pressed my hand to my forehead, it was burning, with a severe pain shooting through. I slowly, and carefully pushed myself up to sit, last night's event came rushing in my head. The wedding anniversary celebration, the verbal exchange between me and Adrian when we returned home, every word rang in my head. "If I had a choice, I'd have gotten rid of you a long time ago," this particular sentence replayed in my head countless times, reminding me how wrongly I had chosen for love. I should cry again, but my tears are all dried up now. I had cried all my tears last night that there was none left to cry anymore. The door opened, and Adrian walked in with a tray in his hands. Seeing him made my heart twist and harden at the same time. He walked to me and set the tray on the bed very close to where I sat. "The doctor said you need to eat breakfast early and take your

Jane's POV.The drive to the court was quiet. John was driving steadily, not in a rush. And then it happened. How it happened, I still couldn't understand it. The car just capsided. Not just our car, a lot of cars were jammed with each other, most of them damaged badly. John was injured, a cut deep in his left leg, bleeding profusely. And me? I was alright, except I felt light, and a scratch grazed my left hand. We were rushed to the nearest hospital by the parademics in an ambulance. I was fine by the time I got to the hospital, but since they all think I'm Adrian Blackwood's wife, they forced me on priority care. "You go nowhere," Adrian's voice rang in the space between us. "You just got involved in an accident, how can you leave immediately?"I scoffed, "like you care." "I do!" He retorted. Of course, for one sole reason— his child. I ignored him, straightened my robe, picked up my wig and bag from the bed, ready to leave. Adrian rose from the bed where he sat, facing me w

Jane's POV.Hours Ago.The court rippled with shock, surprise, and confusion, as I introduced myself as Attorney Janine Reed, leaving the Blackwood name out if it. As I opened my mouth to speak further, the opposing counsel stood up. "Objection, your honor, but we can not trust the defendant's counsel," he said. I turned to him, raising a brow. "She's ill, diagnosed of an emotional disorder confirmed by her husband yesterday on her wedding anniversary. How can we trust such a person's counsel?" He opposed, and I let out a scoff."And she just gave us another confirmation..." he continued, locking gaze with me with such sinister look in his eyes. "...a married woman who just threw away her husband's name in front of the whole world," he finished with a subtle smirk. I scoffed. "Are you afraid that this emotionally disordered pregnant wife would dethrone you today in front of the whole world?" I smirked back at him. "Are you two here to defend your clients or are you here to openly

Jane's POV. "You're discharged and free to go home, ma'am," the nurse said to me and I gave her a nod. "Please do well to take your medications, and rest adequately," she added with a smile. I gave her another nod before she left the ward. I heaved a sigh, leaning backwards on the headboard, my mind spiraling into thoughts. "Are you tired?" Ethan's gentle voice broke into my thoughts. "Yes," I nodded.He nodded in understanding, "Then we don't need to leave immediately." "Rest up a little then we'll leave when you're fit enough," he advised."And where would I go?" I asked. To be honest, I had nowhere else to go asides Adrian's home... and I cannot go there, at least not now. My in-laws, they'll gladly receive me in their home but is it right to go there first after parting ways with their son? My brother... he's not the home I should reply on now, he's worse than Adrian. And Ethan, I've bothered him enough. I don't want to bother him any longer. "My home," Ethan responded

Jane's POV.Ethan had told me to stay home today and rest, but the career woman in me bluntly said no. But first thing first, I have to move into my own house.Ethan is my best friend, and wouldn't mind even if I spend forever in his home but there are some chances we shouldn't overstep. "I'll be leaving work early today," I said. He was literally my boss, I needed to seek his permission to do anything that concerns work."Take the whole day off, Jane, you need rest," he coaxed me, and I chuckled."I've rested enough, Ethan," I said, and he heaved a sigh. "I'm fine, Ethan," I assured him. "I swear it." "I hope so," he replied. I took out my phone from my bag, and went on the internet for one purpose but I got distracted by another. The news was everywhere. Billionaire marriage in shambles.World Best Couple: A lie.Billionaire CEO Adrian Blackwood, and his wife are divorced. The tabloids were all about me and Adrian. I sighed heavily. Pushing them all aside, I moved on to my
