Alle Kapitel von Divorced While Pregnant: The Billionaire’s Regret.: Kapitel 11 – Kapitel 20

The rain poured steadily over London.Evelyn stood by the kitchen window, watching droplets race down the glass while absentmindedly sipping a cup of warm ginger tea.Her growing belly was becoming impossible to hide.She was almost six months pregnant.Every morning, she reminded herself that she wasn't just living for herself anymore.Every decision she made now affected the little life growing inside her.Her phone rang.It was Amelia."Good morning, sleepyhead!"Evelyn laughed."I've been awake since five.""Morning sickness?""No."She smiled as she rubbed her stomach."Your little nephew decided to use my ribs as a football."Amelia burst into laughter."I can't wait to meet him.""You say that now. Wait until he's crying at three in the morning.""I'll still spoil him."Later that morning, Evelyn arrived at the office for an important client presentation.As she walked into the conference room, several executives greeted her warmly.One of the clients glanced at her baby bump b

The days passed peacefully.After the scare at the hospital, Evelyn became even more careful.She no longer worked late into the evening.Every afternoon, Arthur made sure she left the office on time, while Amelia took it upon herself to remind Evelyn to eat whenever she became too busy."You know," Amelia said one afternoon, crossing her arms, "your son is going to think spreadsheets are his siblings."Evelyn laughed."I can't help it. There's still so much to do.""There will always be work.""But this..." Amelia gently touched Evelyn's baby bump. "...only happens once."Evelyn smiled."You sound like my grandmother.""I'll take that as a compliment."The following Saturday, Amelia insisted that Evelyn leave the apartment by noon."I have somewhere to take you.""Amelia...""No questions."Half an hour later, they stopped outside Arthur's countryside home.Evelyn frowned."What are we doing here?"Amelia simply smiled and opened the front door."Surprise!"The room erupted into chee

The crisp autumn air greeted Evelyn as she stepped out of her apartment.She paused for a moment, one hand resting protectively over her growing belly."Ready for another day?" she whispered.A gentle kick answered her.Evelyn chuckled."I'll take that as a yes."It had become their little game.Every morning, she talked to her unborn son.Every morning, he seemed to answer.Those quiet moments gave her strength.When she arrived at Collins International, the office was unusually busy.Employees hurried from one meeting room to another, carrying files and laptops.Amelia spotted Evelyn the moment she walked in."There you are!""I've been looking everywhere for you.""What happened?"Amelia grinned."Mr Collins wants everyone in the conference room."Curious, Evelyn followed her.Arthur stood at the front with a smile."I have an announcement."The room fell silent."Our company has successfully secured a long-term partnership with one of Europe's largest investment firms."Applause f

The days grew colder.By the time December arrived, Evelyn was eight months pregnant.Her once graceful steps had become slow and careful.Even getting out of bed required patience.She smiled to herself as she sat on the edge of the mattress."You're getting bigger every day."As if answering her, Ethan gave a firm kick.She laughed."I know, I know. You're running out of space."Arthur insisted that she begin her maternity leave immediately."No emails.""No meetings.""No working from home.""Just rest," he said firmly.Evelyn sighed in defeat."Yes, Mr Collins."He chuckled."I'll pretend I didn't hear the reluctance in your voice."As she left his office for the last time before maternity leave, the entire team surprised her.Everyone gathered around her desk.Amelia stepped forward carrying a bouquet of white lilies."We'll miss you."Another colleague handed her a gift bag."Come back only when you're ready."One after another, her colleagues wished her well.Evelyn was overwhe

Christmas was only a few days away.London was glowing with festive lights.Shop windows sparkled with decorations, children laughed as they pointed at Christmas trees, and the streets were filled with people carrying brightly wrapped gifts.Evelyn walked slowly through the city, one hand resting on her belly and the other holding a small shopping bag.She had only one thing left to buy.A Christmas gift for her son.It might seem silly to buy a present for a baby who hadn't even been born yet.But to Evelyn...It mattered.She wanted Ethan's first Christmas to begin with love, even if he would be too young to remember it.She wandered into a small toy shop tucked away on a quiet street.The shelves were lined with teddy bears, wooden trains, and colourful storybooks.An elderly shopkeeper smiled warmly."Looking for something special?"Evelyn nodded."It's for my son."The woman's eyes softened."How old is he?"Evelyn smiled as she gently rubbed her belly."He hasn't arrived yet."T
