• “Hello, miss Hill.” She asks trying to act calm and composed.
• “Gloria, you did some tests last week. I have your report in my hand. Can you please come to collect them?” She asks.
• I was so disturbed these few days I almost forgot about this report.
• “Miss Hill, can you send them to me, please? I am busy slightly.” Gloria said as she didn’t want to go there for the time being.
• “Actually, I wanted to talk with you.” She said hesitating and Gloria sighed.
• “Ok, I will be there in half an hour.” She replied.
• “Ok, I will keep my schedule free.” Dr. Hill replied and cut the call.
• Gloria told the driver to turn the car toward the Health Life hospital and leaned back tiredly.
• She didn’t realize when she fall asleep but she woke up when the driver call her to get off.
• She told him to wait. Meanwhile, she went to meet the doctor inside.
• Health Life hospital was one of the subsidiaries of White’s, the company of his grandpa.
• When she went to reception, she get to know the doctor was waiting for her and she entered her office with no delay.
• Dr hill was in her early thirties but she was renowned in the medical field.
• Gloria and her family were regular here because of her mother's health and she was close to Dr. Hill.
• “Hi, Gloria. I was waiting for you.” She said and gestured for her to sit and Gloria sat there worriedly.
• “Is there any problem with my report?” She asked and the doctor shook her head and a smile formed on her face.
• “Actually, you are pregnant.” Dr. Hill informed, and her world collapsed suddenly hearing those words.
• Gloria was recently trying to conceive as once she saw David playing with some child.
• There was an image in her mind that he would like their child, too.
• But at this moment when their relationship was collapsing, she didn’t know how to react after hearing this news.
• Dr. Hill talked with her about her pregnancy and Gloria leave her room after some time.
• But this news put her unstable mind in another turmoil, and she walked toward the park outside the hospital and sat there with a sad mind.
• She was happy because there was a life living inside her, and she would soon be a mother.
• But she was worried about its future.
• Would David accept it?
• Would he cancel this divorce because of this child?
• A lot of thoughts were surrounding her, making her heart clench in pain.
• But suddenly a sweet giggle attracted her and she looked at the source.
• There was a pair of twin playing in the park.
• “Jenny, don’t run. I will tell mom you make me run.” The cute little boy said, running after her sister.
• “Don’t be a coward.” The girl said and show him her tongue and run somewhere out of her sight.
• But the cute bundle of joy brought a smile to her face, and a determination built inside her too.
• It doesn’t matter would David would accept this child or not.
• This is her child, and she will protect them.
• With this determination, she walked out of the park while calling his driver.
• She needed to confront David, why he was doing all this to her.
• Gloria walked inside her house and without wasting any time barged inside her bedroom.
• Lia was still laying on the bed while David was sitting on the couch and working on his laptop.
• With the sound of the opening of the door, they looked at her and Lia got up startled.
• She was pulling the sheet over her to hide her nakedness.
• “Gloria, nothing happened as you are thinking.” Lia tried to say, but Gloria raised her hand to stop her.
• “I am not here to talk to you. But I would surely like to talk with my husband. Can you come out?” Gloria asked, looking at David.
• “You can talk here,” David replied, but Gloria was not comfortable staying there.
• “This room is dirty and I would like some privacy,” Gloria says and left the room giving them any chance to retort.
• Gloria was sitting in the living room when David come down after dressing up.
• “What do you want to talk about? I have nothing to say. Just sign those papers and we can go on our way.” David said, but Gloria was silent.
• She looked at the papers and when she remember the test report; she wanted to give him a chance for the sake of their child.
• “Can I know the reason for your decision?” She asked and David sit on the sofa.
• “Wasn’t it clear? I love Lia.” He said and Gloria closed her eyes to stop the tears that were threatening to spill out and prove her weakness.
• But she was adamant to stop them anyhow.
• “What if I say I am pregnant?” Gloria asked lastly though her heart was crying.
• “I don’t believe there is any chance that the child is mine. We have always used protection.” David said, and that made the girl shocked like hell.
• Was he trying to say this child was not his?
• How could he question her chastity?
• This accusation was unacceptable.
• Gloria can forgive him for hooking up with Lia.
• But She could never forgive him for calling their child a bastard
• “Then it is best that we divorce,” Gloria said and pull out a pen from her bag.
• She signed the documents with no hesitation and hand them to him.
• “I wish Mr. Collin a happy life ahead and…” She pulled out the papers of share transfer from her bag and sign those papers too.
• “This is my gift for your wedding,” Gloria said and keep those papers beside the divorce papers.
• She didn’t even wait to see their expression and leave the house.
• If she would have known, it was not her marriage that failed.
• It was someone’s wicked mind that played games to break this marriage.
