The Billionaire’s Pretty Thief

“Can we go now?” she asked walking immediately to the ward. She had to put up with the visitor’s dress before going in there and so was her husband. Mrs. Jadiel walked inside the ward with her husband and caught a glimpse of Jane, her eyes were filled more with tears not knowing what to say to her. She felt so bad for her that words lacked from her mouth and her eyes said everything that her mouth could not say.

“Why are you crying ma’am?” she asked from the bed where she was lying on and seeing her boss standing behind his wife, she let out a smile at him, nodding her head as a sign of respect.

“I am not crying, just feel glad to see you in good shape,” her words made their way out, and not knowing whether that was the right thing to say, she felt disturbed in her soul. Noticing that tears could not stop flowing from her eyes, Jane struggled to wake up from the bed but her body was too weak.

“You need to lay down on the bed and don’t move because it will only make you feel more vulnerable,” Mr. Jadiel explained. Jane did as she was advised but she could feel deep down in her that something was wrong with her and she could not move an inch.

“Why are you both looking at me as though something bad is about to happen?” she insisted to know but Mrs. Jadiel not wanting to tell her what the doctor had said, lowered her gaze and turning to her husband, she looked at him and her heart raising inside her chest, she was uncomfortable with the situation.

Not knowing that Jane was already told the issue that was going on with her, Mrs. Jadiel turned back to her, and with heavy lips, she said,

“We are here for you, okay, and nothing will happen to you as long as we are here,” her words came out of her mouth with her lips trembling as though she had been beaten by a deadly creature.

“I know what is going to happen already but I want you both to promise me something please, especially gosh ma’am,” she pleaded with her mistress her words slowly becoming faint and tears dripping out of her eyes, she struggled to put up with her hand as she whirled her body on one side.

Not like the words that were coming out of her mouth, Mrs. Jadiel sat down by her bed and took her right hand, pushing to the limit to touch hers.

“I know that I am not related to you, but I just want you to know that I am grateful for everything that you and your husband here have done for me and I will forever be thankful to you both and that is the reason why I have this request to make,” she pleased while waiting for her to give her the go-ahead and what she listed to, made blood to stop following in her veins.

“What?” her husband exclaimed from behind before his wife could even respond to Jane’s request, her heart was already beating so hard that she thought the world was coming to an end.

“I am not liking what you are saying Jane,” Mrs. Jadiel said with so much fear in her heart, and looking at Mr. Jadiel, she bit her lips in discomfort.

Jane took in a deep breath and exhaled it before saying what she had to say. Grabbing her paramour’s hands, she looked into her eyes with a courage that she could not explain where it was coming from, and letting the words out of her mouth she said,

“If anything should happen to me in there, please do take care of my son and name him Blaze,” her appeals met their ears. The atmosphere had become very tense and the couple felt like they had been slapped by a cruel spirit, Mr. Jadiel was moved by what had just happened and walked closer to her not being able to digest what he had just heard, Jane turned her gaze from his wife and focused on him.

His wife’s eyes were already blocked with tears and all she could do was cry because the words that were already making their way out of her mouth were very frightening. Asking to know why she wanted them to be the ones to keep her son, Jane replied with a faint smile that had formed on her lips as she said,

“You both are good people, so it will be a huge blessing to you in your family.”

His countenance had changed and at that moment, his own eyes were filled with tears but not wanting to show his weakness as a man, he tried his best to hold back his tears from becoming visible. Insisting that they make a promise to her, Jane felt another sharp pain again and this time it was so severe that she had to scream out like an animal that had been knocked down by a car.

“What is the matter, why are you shouting like that?” Mrs. Jadiel screamed out in fear as she told her husband to rush outside and get the doctor. Even though she was in pain, Jane still wished to atoll listen to her mistress saying that she was going to take care of her child in case she did not make it out of the labor room, and as difficult as it seems, she had to make the ultimate promise to accept the baby as her own as he was the one to wipe away her tears.

“I promise that I will take care of him as though he was mine and everything that we have said today, will follow me to my grave as I will keep it in me till the very end. Jane’s exterior showed that she was happy and letting her hand slowly, she smiled at her asking her to wish her a safe delivery.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
