Chapter 151

Elsie’s POVTwo days passed and everything was absolutely amazing as we experienced a kind of peace like never before because we were no longer looking behind our backs to make sure something bad was about to happen.Damien, who was as hardworking for us as ever, was busy in the study room. He was supposed to go to work but for some reason, he chose to stay back home, where he would be able to watch me better. I didn’t even need to complain because I enjoyed his company just as well.That morning, after Damien went to the study to get some work done, I spent the next few minutes on the phone with my mom, who was more than eager to see my belly.“You’re practically glowing, baby,” my mom praised with a wide smile. She was currently at work but still set some time aside for me. “Come on, let me see that baby’s bump,”“Mommy, it’s not that big yet,” I laughed shyly as I raised my shirt up so she could see. She and my dad are so hyped about the baby that they always ask if they can see my

Damien’s POVI was deep into work in my study as I tried to meet deadlines, while making sure to check on Elsie to see if she needed anything. I had a whole lot of workload but after all that happened and the recent incident with Victoria, I just wanted to have some time with her because life was indeed fragile.A while later, I resisted the urge to call her and ask her to come to keep me company, so it wouldn’t look as if I was being too clingy but just as I pushed the thoughts away, my phone lit up with a call from her.A wide and genuine smile spread across my face as I picked up the device, sliding the screen open. We had only been apart for a few hours, yet the mere sight of her name made my chest swell. I was prepared to tease her for missing me so soon and to ask her if she needed me to come back upstairs and rub her stomach or if she wanted to come down.With my smile still wide, I answered the call."Hey, pumpkin, miss me already—"The words died instantly in my throat.There

Damien’s POVI barely paid attention to the drive back to the estate because I was practically boiling and by the time I arrived back at the estate, my guards were already in position, guarding each exit route with loaded guns in their hands.When I stepped into the living room, the guard I had called hurried to meet me."They are all accounted for, Mr. Thorne," he reported, keeping pace with me as I walked down the long corridor toward the ballroom. "Every maid, chef, and cleaner has been detained like you asked.”"Good," I growled. "Let's begin."The ballroom was quiet as a graveyard. Thirty-five staff members stood in trembling lines and they were all surrounded by armed guards. As I looked them over, I felt a fresh wave of rage because these were people I would have vetted for. People I paid premium salaries to ensure absolute discretion and safety in my household and funny enough, some of them were picked off the streets and given a better life here.I stopped in front of them wi

Third Person's POVFour days later, Elsie was awake.The room was filled with a happy atmosphere as everyone was happy that the troubles were finally over. Elsie sat propped up against some pillows with her face still pale from the poisoning, but her beautiful eyes were clear, alert, and fixed on her husband. Damien sat closely by her side with his large frame turning towards her like he was scared she would disappear if he dared to step away. His fingers were holding her tightly as his thumb playfully traced her hand.The head toxicologist stepped into the room while adjusting his eyeglasses as he looked over at them with a genuine smile on his face as he looked down at his most recent report."It is nothing short of a medical miracle, Mr. and Mrs. Thorne," the doctor announced as he walked further into the room. "When you first arrived, the concentration of the toxin was so high we genuinely feared the shock would cause a spontaneous termination. We had stated that we might lose the

Elsie’s POVMy eyes burned with hot tears as the doctors and nurses flanked me, while trying to ensure a successful delivery."You're doing incredibly well, pumpkin," Damien said as he comforted me and wiped a damp cloth across my sweating forehead as his eyes bore into mine."Just one more deep breath, Mrs. Thorne," the doctor called out. "The first baby's head is almost clear and I need one more powerful push on the next contraction."Another wave of pain hit me and I gritted my teeth as I let out a gasp as I squeezed Damien's hand with as much force as I could muster and then, pushed with the last of my strength."That's it, pumpkin! Right there with me, don't let go," Damien urged frantically as he continued comforting me.A split second later, I felt a release and then, the loud cry of a baby.The first baby was born."It's a healthy, beautiful baby boy, Mr. and Mrs. Thorne," the nurse announced with her face lighting up with a smile as she quickly moved the crying infant away.T
