The Billionaire's Secret Lover
Chapter 32: Lilian
“Oh my God! Danny, you've got to see this” I exclaim from the sitting room. Danny rushes out of the room panicking as he came over to meet me. His brown hair fans his brows from the running.
“What is it? Are you hurt?” He runs his hands through my body searching for any signs of pain or discomfort.
“I'm good but this_____” I look over at him as I pointed to the television in front of me. He sat down as we both watch the live interview with Michael and Deborah.
“Deborah Melton is pregnant!! How?” Danny exclaims shocked with his hands folded across his chest.
“Obviously, from what we just heard and they will be having their wedding a month after ours” I stood up from the couch, pacing around the sitting room getting angry. I can't believe Nina had to go through all of this. Why can't she be happy in her life?
“Baby is alright. They will overcome this” Danny came over to where I stood near the window and wipe my tears while I swat his hand away and angrily wipe my eyes. Damn!, this pregnancy I'm always getting emotional unnecessary.
“What do you think we can do now?” I look at Danny who was watching me seriously with his arms folded across his chest as he leans on the wall.
“We can speak to Michael for a start,” Danny said as his brows twitch up, he steps away from the wall and came over to me “ I don't believe anything he said just now”.
“I hope you are right, wouldn't want to know what will happen to Nina now?
“Relax and stop worrying yourself, it's not good for the baby” Danny walk over and caress my cheek lightly
“Why wouldn't I worry, it's Nina we are talking about here and you know she is like a sister to me ” I swat his hand angrily away from my face and turn to walk into the room to change out my dress.
“Baby I understand and sorry for the way I reacted, it was uncalled for” Danny apologize as he came over to hug me from the back, resting his head on the hollow of my neck as he kissed it lightly “ I know Nina wouldn't want anything to happen to our baby, she is our baby godmother too ”.
I huff and step out of his hands to shower and change out of my dress as we both got ready to leave for Michael's office.
“Do you think we can stop Michael from getting married to Deborah?” I asked Danny as I turn to look at him, immediately he was seated beside me in the car fastening his seatbelt.
“Lilian” He sighs heavily as he turns to stare at me, his hand reaching out to caress my cheek lightly “ Michael is a grown man, we can't force him to do what he doesn't want to do” he pulls out of the driveway onto the route that leads to Michael's office “we can at least try and talk to him ”
“But, we all know that they both love each other ” I protested back, tired of this game they were playing. Why is Mr. and Mrs. Thompson so adamant about Michael getting married to Deborah Melton.
“Exactly, we just have to talk to him. It is left to him to decide for himself ” Danny said firmly leaving no space for argument.
