Secret Billionaire’s Contract Bride: Marrying My Enemy’s Lover

Chapter 88

Positive

There it was in big and bold letters.

I had a little baby inside my belly and if the words on the digital test were to be believed then I was about 3-4 weeks pregnant

I couldn’t stop the tears as they traveled down my face.

“I’m pregnant”

My eyes had not left that test in fear that when I turned away it would change.

Damon and I had spoken about this and hoped for it but we hadn’t been trying like that. We were simply just existing. And now we had a baby that was inside of me already growing and forming into a little human.

This was so surreal. I had no idea what to make of it all. All I knew was that I was happy and all I wanted to do was to tell my husband

I tasted the salt of my tears as they continued to fall from my eyes. A teary smile graced my face and then a small cry of blunt relief and joy left my lips.

I tilted my head up and looked at the ceiling. Someone up there loved me and they had blessed me with this perfect little bundle of joy that was currently growing inside of me.

“Mommy will keep you safe,” I spoke into the empty bathroom.

I was in the downstairs guest bathroom and I knew that no one ever came here. I could have my private moment until I was ready to leave this little bubble

When the shock had worn off and the joy had settled in my mind went wild with all the things that I wanted to do. I needed to tell Damon in the cutest way possible.

I couldn’t help but get all giddy just thinking about how excited he was going to be

I took all the pregnancy tests and stuffed them into a plastic bag. The last thing I needed was for one of the staff to see the tests and then word got out.

I hurried to our room and made sure to hide them on my side of the closet. I pulled out my phone and texted him.

Me Hey baby, what time are you getting home tonight?

One thing I loved most about this man was the fact that I never had to wait long for his reply.

Damon: In the next two hours. Why? Are you feeling better?

He knew I had been feeling sick and he had even wanted to take me to the emergency room last night. But now I knew that all that sickness was our little baby.

I placed my hand over my belly and smiled.

Our baby. We were going to have a baby and I was so excited I could hardly contain myself

Me: Yeah feeling all better. I’ll text you when I’m on my way back home Just need to head to the mall.

Damon: Okay, take it easy Mrs. Steyn.

Damon: Hove you

Me: I love you too ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

I smiled, pocketing my phone and walking out of the room and straight to my car. No one could take away the smile that was etched on my face.

I got to my car and made my way to the mall. I knew exactly what I wanted to do for him, I just needed to find a cute little baby onesie and get what I wanted printed onto it.

I was just itching to call him and tell him but I wanted this to be special for him. I would only ever announce my pregnancy for the first time to him once. I wanted to do it right.

Once I was parked 1 made my way out of the car. And just as my day was finally looking up I came face to face with the woman I had been hoping to never see again in my entire life.

“Angela,” I quipped. “What are the odds of running into you here at the mall?”

“Yeah, what are the odds?” She smiled.

She had gotten extensions in her hair and she now wore her hairstyle in waves-the style looked almost identical to mine, That was weird

“As much as I would love to sit here and chit-chat with you I need to go.” I turned to leave.

“I hear you’re getting cozy with your male lead.”

Her words made me stop dead in my tracks. I slowly turned to fare her making sure that I did not waver. She would not get the better of me today, especially given the happiness that had just taken place less than a few minutes ago.

Today was my day.

“Your little attempts are useless.” I raised my left hand in the air. “I wear his ring. I have his name. I will create a home and family with him. None of that includes you. Now I don’t know how many times you need to repeat it to yourself until you stop being so damn delusional but Damon Steyn is MY HUSBAND, So why don’t you move along and go find your own fucking man?”

“All

you

of that.”

have is a ring and a contract that states you’re married. But that man’s love for you will fade with time. I’m certain

I scoffed. “I guess that’s why you’re quite literally trying to be me.”

I gestured to her entire get up which I now noticed was the same dress I had worn not too long ago. It was a pink body con dress that hugged my figure and showed off my curves. Damon had made a comment about how good I looked in it when

gone with Corinna to meet with her lawyer.

we had

“Oh my you’re really trying to be me.” I looked up at her head and got a closer look at her hair. “You dyed your hair and you’re dressing like me too. Do you really think dressing like me and pretending to be the woman he loves will win you brownie points? Are you delusional or are you just dumb?” I laughed in her face not fully believing that she could stoop to such a level. “You can try but you will never be me, Angela. Ciao, Bella”

I used the little phrase she had used on me that day on the phone to dig the knife in more.

I walked a away with a smile on my face knowing full well that I had gotten the upper hand with her. She was trying to be a copy of me when everyone knew that the original was always better than the copycat. But it was a shame that she never got the memo.

I walked all the way to the baby store and took my time in there looking at all the little tiny things that were there. I could not believe that a little human was going to pop out of me in a few months.

I had this plan of putting the little onesie with the words ‘first born’ written on the front in the oven then I was going to tell him to take the buns out of the oven and see how long it took him to figure it out. Damon was by no means a slow person but when it came to things like this, that man could take ages to figure it out and it was undeniably annoying.

I left the store in high spirts that maybe this was the exact gift we needed, not necessarily to save us but rather to complete our little family and make it whole.

It was simply a shame that time had not taught me anything. I should have known that happiness was a fleeting concept. someone like me and disaster was only a few moments from rearing its ugly head.
