I'm pregnant!?

Chapter 38 I'm pregnant!? The kind of uneasiness I felt in my stomach as Selena's words replayed on my mind was tantamount to nothing. I would be a liar if I said that all she said didn't get to me. Ofcourse it did, what woman wouldn't mind seeing another woman frolicing around her husband. 'You know how women are?" Her voice echoed in my mind again, crumbling the rest of the trust I had in Royce. I had thought to ignore all that she said and wanted to insist that everything she said was all a coincidence. However, I couldn't ignore her questions and doubts curling up in my head. Myra is his business partner and I was the one who brought idea but why hasn't he been seen with any of his associates for a while? Why is he getting comfortable with her and always speaking about her when his business comes up. Why does his face spark differently whenever he mentions her name? How is it that Myra sprung out of nowhere and belongs to the top tier of influential people in town? Not only that, she had been the light in his tunnel since she arrived. And now, she is part of his major source of income. What if Selena's worries turns out to be the truth? What would become if me? I thought and my heart suddenly felt heavy, making the atmosphere stuffy for me. 'Stop!" I screamed, the driver stepped on the brake immediately and the car came to a halt. 'Let me out!" I said, hitting the sife of the car. He pressed the unlock button and I opened the door in her hurry. I rushed to the side of the road and retched in pain. The driver rushed to my side with a bottle of water. I finally managed to wash my mouth and get back into the car. 'Do you want me to head to the hospital?" He asked and I nodded. The talk with Selena had gotten the best of men and made me forgotten. I had gone to the hospital while Royce was away and took some tests because I was always feeling weak. The doctor had instructed that I return later for the test but my excitement about Royce's arrival had made me forget. Several minutes later,he arrived at the hospital and I got down, walking into the hospital. ********************************* I walked out minutes later. I hadn't taken more than a few steps when I got a notification on my phone. It was doctor's appointment. I'm pregnant Being the family doctor,he had done the needful and signed me up. I clutched the results in my hand and walked to the car, open it and got in. The driver ignited the car and drove towards the house. My emotions were in turbulence as I thought about the significant change that the pregnancy meant. I'm happy to be with a child but I didn't envisage that it'd happen. Although things are changing between us, I didn't marry Royce because I loved him. I did it so that I could get back at Bella and Carl. ‘Maybe I should abort it?' I thought but discarded the thought. Even though it wasn't planned,Royce still deserves to know that I have his child growing in me. 'Take me to Royce" I said to the driver. I looked at him through the mirror and I saw him nodded, turning towards the road to Royce's office. *************************************** 'He's in a meeting right now," Royce assistance said immediately she saw me. 'And he said to not let anyone disturb him" she added. 'And I'm anyone? Do you realise I'm his wife?" I said but she seemed to not be moved. 'Well,I don't care who he's in a meeting with. Let me see you try to stop me," I said as I brushed past her. I began to walk towards the corridor to his office and I could hear her scurrying after me. I took no notice of her and got to Royce's office, opened it. If Selena's words had meant nothing like I earlier thought, the scene before me now prove me otherwise. Before me was Royce,he sat in one of the couch in his office and beside him sat Myra. She had her legs crossed on each other, exposing a bit too much of her laps as she and Royce engaged in quiet discussion. They both turned around at the sound of the door and moved away from eachother. Myra cleared her throat and stretched her clothes a bit, covering the initial skin that was exposed. 'Britney? Good to see you," Myra said, smiling but I said nothing. In fact,I did as is she wasn't in the room. 'I didn't know you had company. Am I interrupting you?" I asked Royce calmly even though my blood was boiling with anger. 'No, I was just leaving," she said. She smiled warmly at me but I frowned instead. I hated the way she was composed when she could see clearly that I was angry. 'You didn't tell me you were coming," Royce said as soon as she left. He had stood up too and walked to me. He held me closely to himself in a way that made me doubt if I was being worried over nothing. 'Here," I said, presenting him with the paper that contained he result of the test. He took it from me and removed it from the envelope. He opened it and began to read. To my surprise his face lit up when he got the last part of the result. 'You are pregnant?" He asked. He had dropped the results on a nearby table and hugged me to himself. He placed his hand on my tummy and smiled. 'I have a child growing here?" He asked again. 'Have you spoken to the doctor?" He babbled with several questions, making me wonder 'You are happy?" I asked unable to stop myself 'Ofcourse I am. I have an heir growing in your womb. What were you expecting? That I wouldn't be excited. Let me ask you, don't you want this?" He queried and frowned. I searched his face and I could see the eagerness in them. I knew then that I couldn't say anything negative. 'I think I should ask you that because I came here to tell you the news and what I get is you and Myra engrossed in hushed tones." My take on the child was undecided so I had to find a way to shift the attention from myself. 'Are we really doing this? You know why she was here." He exerted. 'No, I don't and in fact, you need to start explaining the whole situation. I don't know why you seem to suddenly take so much interest in her." 'Calm down Britney," he said holding my hand. 'She's my business partner, I told you about how she helped out right?" 'And you expect me to believe that especially with the way she's being doing everything for you. When was the last time you requested for my help? How come she's the one doing everything for you?" I screamed. 'Are you accusing me of something?" He asked 'Are you involved in something that is worth my accusations?" I retorted. 'I don't like the way she goes around with you as if she owns you. I'm the one carrying your child?!" 'You are taking this too far. The baby here changes everything for me. Believe me when I say you are all I care about. Whatever you are thinking about Myra and me, it's of no significance." 'Oh, it better not be significant because I sure would get to the bottom of this," I said with anger. Without waiting for his reply, I trudged to the door, opened it and stormed out. I could hear him calling my name but I was too furious to wait. Even though he claimed that it doesn't matter,one thing was clear: there's more to the relationship between him and Myra and I'm going to stop it. I've come a long way than allow anyone take what belongs to me.
