All Chapters of PREGNANT FOR MY EX’S BILLIONAIRE UNCLE : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Liora. It was the second day since I signed the contract, since I moved to Soren's Penthouse, and I couldn't get used to the unfamiliar space. It was a huge and quiet house, with silence stretching in everything corner, the kind of silence that made breathing almost feel like a crime. It was neat and luxurious, with nothing out of place, you would think no one lived there.. Being here, after coming from the Quinn's, almost felt like I had jumped from one hell, directly to another, and somehow, it actually looked that way, but this one felt different. Or maybe, it was just my nervous system lying to me. When we got here, much to my surprise, Soren already had a room prepared for me. It was a huge and white-themed room, way bigger than any room I had ever owned. But that was not what surprised me, really.. It was the clothes in the walking-in closet, all in my correct measurements, and they were in my favourite colours. When I saw the clothes and the shoes , I wanted

Liora. Damn every fucking thing! Tavian was sent after my life, wasn't he? Now, my worst fear was happening. Just like I had predicted, Soren caught me in the room with Tavian! I did nothing wrong, but it felt wrong no matter how you looked at it. One was my ex, and the nephew and the other one was my husband and the uncle! Just fucking perfect! And like the devil wanted, he happened to walk in just when I was asking Tavian if he was already regretting it....And now, I had no way of defending myself. As his familiar silhouette appeared, my knees nearly gave up, and I felt like I was about to pass out. Either from the pressure, from the fear or, from the pregnancy hormones, I couldn't tell... or maybe I was too stubborn to admit I was scared. His gaze moved between Tavian and I, and to my absolute dismay, there wasn't much to take from his blank and expressionless face. I couldn't tell if he was mad or unimpressed, and that was driving me to the edge. " What

Liora. "Don't keep us all waiting.." Soren reminded, and my eyes were sharpened by hope as I looked at Tavian. He didn't meet my gaze. He shifted uncomfortably under his feet, and watching, deep and unsettling pain gripped my heart. I told myself not to hope. I told myself to expect nothing from Tavian, and yet my heart wouldn't listen. I wrapped my hands around my belly as I my eyes sought his, my breath held, as I waited for his response. He had already disappointed me once. One more disappointment couldn't be any worse, right? Well, that was what I kept on telling myself, but when I saw the hesitation on his face, something shifted within me. No. Shifting was the wrong word. It was like something snapped within me.. It was my heart. It only shook once, then it completely went still, not beating, not feeling, just dead.. A wave of hopelessness washed over me, and when my gaze moved between the Uncle and the nephew, bitterness lodged in my gut. Getting ba

Liora.“Looks like you are staying, Mrs. Knight?” His face was frustratingly straight as he taunted, adding to the anger burning through me, and looking at him, I had never wanted to kill someone as much as I wanted to kill Soren Knight.But, just like I was unable to cough up thirty million dollars, I couldn't kill him either, and that only added to my frustration.I ran my fingers through my hair. I clenched and unclenched my fists, and yet, nothing seemed to calm me.Fire burned in my eyes as I stared at him, and for a moment, we just locked eyes. His unreadable, while mine? Well, if gazes could kill, he would already be a goner.“Soren Knight! What do you want with my life?” I sounded exasperated as I asked.“Nothing...” He shrugged, and heavens help me because I was losing it completely. The indifference, the nonchalance... they were like a slap to my sanity.“It would do you well to control your temper.”“It’s not good for the baby,” he remarked, and before I could say anything,

Liora."I will drive you." I had just stepped out of the penthouse, my phone in hand, ready to order a ride when a car swerved to where I was, and a vaguely familiar face came into view.I had seen him before. He was Soren's driver. He was the one who drove us from the hospital to the penthouse the other day."Sir asked me to take you wherever you want to go." Maybe he noticed my hesitation because he explained before he came forward, opened the door, and motioned for me to get in.At the thought, surprise flickered in my eyes. I mean, Soren had made it clear that I was not supposed to expect anything from him, right?The sudden consideration was a surprise. Well, the gesture was much appreciated, especially since my destination was tucked in the middle of the city. Going with a hired ride would have probably cost more, especially with the crazy traffic.Not to add, a free ride meant I could save some cash and, given my current financial situation, broke to the very soul, the simple g
