Cold Fate

Alice sat in the chair in front of Sam's desk, waiting for him to come with her reports.

Sam is Alice's regular doctor and whenever she gets sick, she comes to him every time.

Alice was feeling sick today. She was in her office enjoying the weather, and suddenly she felt nauseous and about to faint. So she came for a check up.

The office door opened and Sam walked in.

"Hey there Alice, How are you feeling now?" He asked her.

"I'm feeling fine now. Thank you for asking. So everything's okay with me, right?" Alice asked.

"Everything's fine, don't worry. I have wonderful news for you, Alice." Sam said with a full smile.

Alice wondered what good news he was talking about, so she asked him what was he talking about.

"You are two weeks pregnant Alice. Congrats." Sam replied.

Alice could not be more surprised in her life after hearing the news.

She was married to Jordan Smith, who was the son of one of the four biggest families in this city, for three months now.

Alice had mixed feeling about her pregnancy as her husband, Jordan didn't love her. He didn't even like her.

Now she was pregnant with Jordan's baby and didn't know how Jordan was going to take this news.

He might even get angry at her because he thought Alice planned to sleep with him to get pregnant with his baby.

But Alice had a crush on Jordan since the age of ten. And when she was told she was going to marry Jordan, she couldn't believe it.

She was so happy that she was going to be Jordan's wife and will be with him for her rest of the life.

But Jordan didn't feel the same. He despised her. He was close to her sister Chloe as she used to give him pillow talks.

"Alice, are you there?" Sam asked chuckling and brought Alice out of her thoughts.

She looked at him for a moment to remember what was he saying.

Sam understood Alice was not listening to him so he repeated himself.

"I was saying where's your husband? You should've brought him with you."

Alice felt a bit embarrassed as she lied to Sam saying.

"He had some office work so he couldn't make it here. But he'll pick me up later."
