Chasing My Ex-wife Back

Chapter 80

Chapter 80 “What’s going on in your mind? You know you can always tell me what’s bothering you.” Debbie said again when her best friend gave no response to her last question. “Those tests may not be accurate. I don’t want to do that.” Hailes voiced out fiddling with her fingers. “You seem all over the place even though you are trying to keep a calm face with me. Besides, are you not curious to know?” “You definitely know me better than myself. I had no idea how I managed to keep a straight face with Cole when I’ve been freaking out inside of me.” “You are scared?” Debbie asked, staring at her best friend intently. “I don’t want to use that word but yeah, maybe something close to that. I used to be okay with the thoughts. That was why I never insisted on protection. But it’s very nerve-wracking to know that I may be pregnant.” “That’s what caused Cole and I’s separation the first time, remember?” Debbie smiled sadly. “There you go again, filling your hearts with fear.” She shook her head. “Being stuck with fear and weighing one’s options are totally different things.” “I don’t know. I know I’m going to sound silly but I wasn’t expecting to get pregnant this early.” Debbie was trying so badly to hold back her laugh. “I don’t know why you are freaking out when this could be great news. Cole was an a**hole in the past but I believe he’s changed now. Ollie and Enzo would be the happiest in the world. And me, God knows I am going to start filling my cart with baby items before I sleep tonight.” Hailey glared at her best friend. “Don’t sound too excited.” “This is what we prayed so hard for. Of course, I am going to be excited.” “You prayed?” “Yeah! Just not in your face.” Debbie answered with a small smile. Hailey sighed. “I don’t remember feeling that sick the first few weeks I was pregnant with the twins. I

took a test because I missed my period. I wasn’t even expecting it to be positive.” “I don’t know why that happens but I read somewhere that every pregnancy is different. This is good news but I don’t like how you look and sound.” “Yeah, I hope I am going to survive what is to come for me.” Debbie intertwined her hands with Hailey’s own and gave it a light squeeze. “Just take the damn test. Please. Who knows, we could all be worrying for nothing. But I hope not.” A small smile crept to Debbie’s lips. “I am a fan of you and Cole. I really hope you are pregnant and I am excited about what’s to come for your beautiful family. I can definitely see Cole Matthis and the twins shedding tears of joy.” Hailey playfully rolled her eyes. “It could be a boy.” “No one cares. We would love it so much regardless. But just know that Ollie and Enzo wouldn’t let you be until you give them a Bella.” Hailes sighed, massaging her temple. 1/4 Chapter 80 “I know this is unexpected but you will be fine.” “Yeah, definitely! A new addition comes with a lot of changes and I think that is what scares me. Wait, why am I speaking as though it has been confirmed that I am pregnant?” Debbie shrugged, smiling. “Perhaps you want it so bad but you don’t know how to express yourself.” “I don’t know. I feel having one more kid with Cole would mean so much more. I mean, we could call one or two a mistake, but when it’s three, then it’s so much more.” “I don’t know how long we would be able to hide from the media. I mean Cole is an influential person. The success of my company has also put me in the public eye” “I think my anxiety is based on the fact that things are going to be happening so fast from now. There are going to be a lot of changes.” “I agree that there’s going to be a change. You all are practically a family now. But don’t let thoseNôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

thoughts mess with your head. One step at a time and everything will definitely get sorted.” Hailey nodded. “I don’t mind that it’s late. I can still drive to buy the tests for you.” Hailey shook her head. “What’s on your mind?” “Do you think Cole will go with me to the hospital if I inform him?” Debbie smiled. “Of course, he would. That’s a better idea. You are making me proud.” “I’m sure he is going to be happy and grateful about it. He missed so much with the boys so this will do him some good.” “I will talk to him.” “Good. So when will you tell the twins?” Hailey shrugged. “If it comes out positive, I would love to wait a while before letting them know. Debbie chuckled. “Why?” “I feel I am not going to hear the end of it.” “True! But I cannot wait for them to find out. I am happy for you all. Congratulations, my friend.” Debbie initiated a hug with her. “Thank you for your kind words but I don’t think it is time to congratulate yet. Who knows, all of these could be imaginary. I might just be down with a bug.” Hailes said, returning the hug. Debbie pulled away from the hug. “Don’t tease me, babe. I think we both know what that is. You and Cole are going to make a beautiful baby again.” Hailey playfully rolled her eyes. “Will you be spending the night here?” She asked Debbie. “Yes, I would. I need to keep an eye on you, remember?” 2/4 ||| 70% Chapter 80

“Thank you. You want some ice cream?” Debbie stared at Hailey with a knowing smile. “I always force you to have ice cream. This definitely has to be that little cutie in action.” She pointed at Hailey’s belly. Hailes rolled her eyes at her best friend, rose to her feet, and made her way to her bedroom for a shower. An hour later. Hailey was almost shutting her eyes when her phone buzzed on the nightstand. She stretched her hand, reached for it, and saw that it was Cole. She smiled. She answered and brought the device to her ear. “My love.” His voice came through, making her smile even more. “Hi.” “Sleeping?” “About to.” “I miss you. I wish I was there with you.” Hailey’s smile got even bigger. “I miss you too.” “Would you be available at lunchtime tomorrow?” “I’ve got a lunch date with a client. Why do you ask?” “Never mind.” “You’ve got something in mind?” Cole asked. “Yeah, I want us to go on a weird lunch date tomorrow.” “Weird lunch date?” “Yeah,” Hailey said, sitting up on the bed. “Nothing fancy but I think you will like it.” “Okay. I think I would be able to pull some strings.” “Thank you.” “You’ve got nothing to thank me for. I will always make time for us.” “Do you think there is anything I do that would make you mad at me?” Hailey couldn’t help but ask, anticipating his reaction tomorrow. “Like what?”

She shrugged as though he could see her. “I don’t know. Anything.” “I don’t think so, babe. I know you’ve got a good heart and you would never do anything to hurt me.” “Even if it’s by mistake?” 3/4 4/4 Chapter 80 “You are scaring me, Hailey. You are not planning a date to break up with me, right?” “It depends.” She mumbled. “Hailes!!” “Do you think my body can live without you?” Hailey asked. “Mine can’t live without you. I know I am going to be miserable without you by my side.” “That makes me calm. Hopefully, you won’t change your mind after Tomorrow.” Hailey brought her hand to her belly, caressing it. Connie and Eric were almost almost taking off each other’s clothes when a loud bang came through their door. The duo pulled away from each other, staring at themselves in shock. Eric was almost saying something when the loud bang came through again. “Vanessa?” Connie voiced out, going to answer the door. She opened the door and almost immediately, Vanessa strolled in as though she was the owner of the room. The only difference was that she had tears rolling down her cheek like a child. Eric slowly massaged his temple. Connie shut the door and made her way over to her daughter who stood by the bedside, weeping profusely. “What’s going on, baby?” “You should know your daughter by now. If this isn’t about the person she is obsessed with, then it’s a miracle.” Connie rolled her eyes at her husband. “Don’t be insensitive.” “What is it, my love?” Connie turned her attention to her baby. “Yo….you are not going to believe what I just heard.” She hiccuped.

“What did you find out?” “Hailey didn’t lose the baby four years ago. The kids they traveled with are not fake kids. They are Cole’s children. That is why Cole doesn’t want anything to do with me and my baby!” Vanessa cried harder. ୦
