Ex-Wife by Mirah Selim (e novels to read .TXT) 📖

"Thank you so much, Mam. I will just go and tell him about your visit." Amelia nodded and Rhea went out. Amelia couldn't help but admire the girl. Indeed having a crush over someone who's single in your eyes isn't bad.

After all the girl didn't know he was married. But Amelia was happy to see that girl is indeed respectable at how she backed away after coming to know that he already has a wife. This made her respect and adore Rhea a lot.

She walked towards his desk and a wide smile appeared on her lips when her eyes fell on the two frames placed on the desk. One was hers. And the other was Alex's.

She couldn't help but smile caressing the pictures. Soon her eyes fell on the wide window covering the whole wall. She went there and stared outside.

Her train of thoughts broke when she felt two arms around her waist and she didn't do anything except to lean her back against his front letting him tighten his grip on her.

"What are you doing here love." His deep voice made her sigh in content.

"I bought a lunch for you My Xandy." She giggled when he groaned in annoyance stuffing his head in her crook pulling her impossibly closer.

"Damn woman how many times I have to tell you to stop calling me with that name. That sounds so stupid." He said kissing her flesh.

"Come on stop big guy. First, have your lunch come on." She pulled the whining hulk off her and pulled him towards the couch. She started arranging the food and all he did was stare at her with loving eyes.

After a while of watching him eat like a beast, she was feeling too nervous to share the piece of information with him But Xander finally noticed her continuous staring.

"Am I looking that handsome that you can't keep your eyes off me?" He said smirking playfully she chuckled caressing his beard jaw.

"I have something to tell you, Xander." He nodded his head while putting the empty plate in the shopping bag.

"I went to the hospital today." Xander instantly pushed everything away and scooted closer to her with concerned eyes.

"Right. What doctor said. Are you ok?" He questioned with worried eyes making her smile at him.

"I am fine Xander. But from now on I have to be careful. I have to take care of my health too carefully." Xander's system stopped hearing her words. What's wrong with her? He gulped in fear before caressing her cheek.

"L-Love don't scare me. What's wrong. Tell me." He said desperately and soon a wide smile appeared on Amelia's lips.

"I am pregnant Xander. You're going to be a father." She said smiling at him.

Xander's eyes widened hearing her words. Amelia bit her lip in nervousness as he was frozen in his place. His eyes trailed towards her flat stomach before her face.

She gasped out when his large arms wrapped around her and pulled her towards him. She had to grab his shoulders to not lose her balance.

"I love you. I love you so much. Today you made me so happy. I love you so fucking much." He said completely forcing her body in his arms. She was pulled on his laps as he hugged the life out of her.

"Are you crying? Aww, my Xandy." He whined still shedding tears and cuddling her. She chuckled at how irritated he sounded at her calling him with the nickname.

Pulling his head away she wiped the tears and pecked his lips. He looked so happy and that made her beyond grateful.

"But your health. An---" She knew he will question her that.

"Don't worry doctor said I only have to keep my nutrition in check and no stress. She even said this time I can give birth to a healthy baby only if I will be careful with my health and medications." He smiled nodding his head.

"Ok then. No work. No house chores. No taking care of Alexander like a mad woman. I will talk to Alexander and convince him that his angel needs rest and only rest for few months. So my wife no stress and work. Understood."

He said with a stern tone and glared at her when she tried protesting. Nodding her head like an obedient child he smiled widely kissing her forehead.

Finally, days went by turning into months. Xander made sure for Amelia to not work or to have any stress. Amelia couldn't help but grew an indescribable love for him. The depth of her love has increased to a level she never thought she will.

While Xander was busy taking care of her in every way possible. He couldn't help but admire his wife's glow. Her stomach has started showing and she looked so cute in his eyes while carrying his child.

They didn't try to know the gender even though the doctor said they can. But Amelia wanted it to be a surprise and Xander agreed too.

They both even had small bickering as they guessed. Xander was hell-bent on saying it will be his baby girl while Amelia said she's carrying she knows it's a boy.

While Alexander and Harry only facepalmed themselves at how childish they both looked even though they were the ones becoming parents. Alexander didn't mind and was beyond happy for having a sibling.

While Harry was extremely happy for his sister. He could see how happy she looked after all her first experience with pregnancy wasn't beautiful at all.

Meanwhile

Liam walked towards the shore with steady steps. The beach was the only peaceful place where he could feel contented. After coming to know about Amelia's miscarriage. He was drowned in guilt.

All he used to do was to drink himself to sleep or only cry at his misery. The silent walls of the mansion used to haunt him like a death eater ready to suck his soul out.

There was even a time when he tried killing himself. That night he understood what Harry felt. How helpless. How depressing. How miserable he must have felt when he took the step to kill himself.

But fate wasn't ready to free him from his misery. When he cut his vein. The cut was deep extremely deep and he thought that maybe just maybe he could be free from the pain. But his mother didn't let him.
