View MoreElena's POVI was getting agitated by the traffic. I had to deal with this on top of my already extreme annoyance.Why the hell are there so many cars on the street today? Can my day get any worse than this? "Hi Rickard, is it possible for us to reschedule our meeting location? The traffic here is something else," I complained as I released an exasperated sigh."I will text you the location; meet me by 5," he said before hanging up the phone.I got to the location Rickard texted me, and I saw him seated in a black hoodie at the far end of the bar.“A bar? Seriously Rickard?” I asked, irritated, as I took my final stride. “Chill Elena, you don't seem to be in a good mood” he threw a smirk and then sipped from his glass.“In a good mood? How can I be in a good mood Rickard?” I said, slamming my hand against the table.“Is it Andrew? He asked as he passed me a glass of liquor.Andrew was the least of my problems right now. He is on a business trip to Italy and won't be back for another
Gwen's POV I awoke to the beep of the electrocardiogram monitor in the room. My nose was covered with a respirator, which assisted me in breathing.I experienced severe pains in my lower abdomen and weakness throughout my body. I was drowsy and struggling to keep my eyes open.“My babies” I gasped.I noticed someone resting her head on my bed and holding my hand.“Jane?” I called out.“Gwen, you are awake” she jolted in joy.“My babies?” My eyes welled up with tears as I asked. I remember passing out while pushing but did not remember bringing them out of me.“Did they make it?” Struggling to control my tears. If something were to happen to them, I am not sure if I would be able to forgive myself.I could feel my body vibrating on the bed as the Electrocardiogram monitor beeped louder. My breathing became labored again, and the room was growing darker by the moment.“Doctor!, Nurse!, Anyone!” I heard Jane screaming.I regained consciousness again, but this time I found myself alone i
Gwen's POVAttorney Fredrick.Is Andrew also here with him? That was the only thing that came to mind at that time. I had faced enough humiliation for the day and I am not sure I could handle another."Gwendolyn, how are you doing?" Attorney Fredrick asked, placing his hands on my shoulder."I am sorry about your loss, dear," he said with a warm smile. "She was a good woman," he added.I wrapped my hands around my stomach to conceal my pregnancy. I was certain Andrew had not told him about it because he denied being responsible.Attorney Fredrick's judgment was the last thing I wanted. Jane, who was fully aware of the situation, politely said “ We were leaving Mr Fredrick, please excuse us”.“Leaving? To where?” Attorney Frederick asked curiously.I was still sobbing uncontrollably and didn't utter a single word to him. Deep down I knew what he thought about me, a cheat and his son's ex wife. What he did not know was that my parents had severed all ties with me.“Mr Fredrick please.
Gwen's POVMy eyes welled up with tears that I could not stop. I never had imagined that my birthday would turn out to be one of the worst days of my life."Are you okay, Gwen?" my grandmother asked, extending her hands to me for support.I was unsure of the answer to give her. How could one be okay if they had just lost someone close to their heart?"We will arrive in New York within the next two hours," the captain announced.I tightly shut my eyes closed, and memories of my mother flooded back. I remembered being in third grade and having to cast the role of Rapunzel in a play. I was so nervous and scared, but she lifted my spirits and gave me confidence. She promised to take me to Disneyland if I said all my lines correctly which she did.How she rewarded me with my first pet goldfish for being the best student in fourth grade.I also remembered our last conversation before I married Andrew. When she told me about her illness and how little time she had left, I had no idea it wo
Gwen's POVI woke up to that pungent smell of the hospital I didn't like. The last thing I remembered was clutching my stomach in agony, followed by Granny's last words.“Blood?” I yelled vehemently, getting up from the bed I was lying on.My grandmother, whose hands were holding mine, was startled by my actions.I quickly rubbed my stomach with my hands. At that moment, all I could think about was the safety of my babies. “Gwen! You are awake” Granny exclaimed with a worried look all over her face“Are they fine?” I asked my grandmother while rubbing my stomach. I was more concerned about their well-being than mine.“Yes Gwen. They are.” My grandmother paused for a while and then continued."I will let the doctor know that you are awake." Granny said as she stood up and walked out of the room.Few minutes later, the doctor and my grandmother entered. My grandma had an assuring smile on her face and that made me calm down.“Gwen, how are you feeling this morning?” The doctor asked, p
Andrew's POV"Are you in here, Baby?" Can you believe how fun my day turned out to be?” She asked as soon as she entered my study.The photograph of Gwen fell from my hand and I used my feet to step on it. If Elena should see this photo, I wouldn't hear the end of it.She moved closer to where I was sitting and kissed my lips.She sat on my study table, facing the chair I was in.Her head was buried in her phone. Thank goodness, that was the perfect opportunity for me to push the photograph away."The housekeeper informed me that you had returned from work early today. What is going on?" She asked, her gaze still fixed on her phone."Two agents from Turks and Caicos visited my office today," I explained.I am not sure why I told her, but since her collection had also been stolen, I felt she had every right to know every detail.“Really? Have my collection been found?” She inquired, finally lifting her head from her phone.“Not yet, but the agents have new leads,” I said, staring at he
Andrew's POV"Yes, okay. Send them in." I said and hung up the phone.Two men entered my office, dressed in black tuxedos and dark shades. They walked up to my desk in confident strides.“Mr Andrew?” One said, extending his hand for a handshake."Yes," I replied, returning the gesture. “Have a seat” I offered."I am Agent Daniel, and that is Agent Oliver," he said, pointing to his partner for proper identification."We are currently in charge of unsolving the robbery and attempted murder case in which you were involved in Turks and Caicos."“What happened to Agent Bruce?” I asked. He was in charge of the case before now."He has been transferred, sir," Agent Oliver stated."All right, officers, do you have any leads?" I asked curiously."Based on our current investigations, we discovered that the bullets you were shot with came from an Armalite rifle," Agent Daniel explained, placing a picture of the gun on my table.“Okay, and this is a good thing, how?”. I asked, not sure I understo
Gwen's POVI fixed my gaze on my reflection and my already protruding stomach. It has been three months since I discovered I was pregnant.The size of my tummy was bigger than it should have been because of my twins. I was wearing a dress that once belonged to my grandmother since none of my clothes fit anymore.I smiled, rubbing my hands against my stomach. I have already grown to love them even without seeing them, except for the ultra scan, of course.“Gwen! What is taking you so long?" Granny yelled from downstairs.I rushed downstairs and met Granny who was already agitated.“Are you sure this outfit looks good on me?” I asked, taking a second look at my appearance."Well, it looked good on me back then, but I can not say the same for you," Granny said, laughing loudly. She was clearly trying to tease me.It was a knee-length floral gown with short sleeves. Ordinarily, I would not wear such clothes, but I had to make due with what I had because I had not made time to go shoppin
Gwen's POVI walked at a slow pace to blue door. I was already regretting why I agreed to attend Ricky's concert.It was a 30-minute walk from Grandma Mary's place. I was dressed in a black hoodie and blue jeans. My hair was braided into two French braids.I could hear the sound of music from about a mile away. “Pit bull” I chuckled.I scanned the venue as soon as I arrived. It was not big, but it could hold at least 100 people. There were approximately 50 people present, including myself.“New record Ricky” I murmured to myself .I watched them perform and liked some of their music. I stood on the dark side of the room to avoid being noticed by Ricky."Let me buy you a drink, beautiful," a voice said from behind me.I turned around and saw a man in his mid-thirties who appeared to be drunk."No, thank you," I said, disgusted."C'mon, it is just a drink for a beautiful woman; I mean no harm," he said as he grabbed my hand."Let go of me," I yelled as I struggled to get free of his gri
