Chapter 50

• I dropped my fork, my plate wiped clean whereas Slade’s meal had barely gone halfway. Apart from the fact that I’d grown a larger appetite than normal which is a result of me being pregnant, the food was too good.Slade didn’t mind though, he even offered me some of the food on his plate and was a little disappointed when I turned it down. I was too full already, if I forced anything down my throat, I’d end up vomiting again. I looked down at my tummy which was flat just moments ago. It was now a little bulgy and I was grateful the shirt I wore wasn’t so body-hugging.
• “You will look even better than you do now when you start to show,” he mouthed with obvious possessiveness, pushing his half-empty plate away. Instead of a reply, I turned away to hide the redness his words brought to my cheeks and I was even more grateful when the waiter came with the bill.
• There weren’t any other customers in the restaurant, which made me wonder if he’d asked that the place be cleared out before our arrival. I also noticed the speed at which the staff attended to us. They were trying their best to please him, but he didn’t look pleased. I on the other hand was overly impressed.
