Chapter 219 - Sticking together (1/2)

Next morning Rachel's stomach ached but it was not the pain she felt last evening, she went to the washroom and saw that she was on her period so she quickly took a bath and changed into clean clothes and as she came out, she felt the pain in her stomach increasing.

She didn't want to scream because Robert was still sleeping so she sat against the wall curling herself up, she tried not to scream, her eyes closed in pain, tears flowing through them. She could not move anymore, she felt paralyzed and then she felt like someone was choking her, she gasped for air which finally woke Robert up.

He looked at his side and saw Rachel was snot in his arms anymore so he looked around and his heart clenched looking at her condition. She was crying, folding herself in pain and desperately gasping for air. He didn't waste another second and collected her in his arms.

She could finally feel oxygen fill her lungs, she breathed in desperately for more air and it took her some time to finally be able to breathe properly and all this time Robert was panicking, his heart racing as if he too could not take in the air. As she began to normalise, his expression began to calm down and his heartbeat was finally coming back to normal.

After he took in the situation, his anger surfaced as he spoke ”What were you doing, didn't I tell you that you can't leave my side.”

Rachel looked at him and muttered softly ”I am sorry.”

All the anger in his eyes melted away, he cupped her cheeks ”Rachel please don't do this again, I can't see you in pain.”Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click for visiting.

She smiled at him ”I am fine now, I just needed to use the bathroom and then I realized, I got my period so I just decided to take a bath and change.”

He didn't say anything for a while and then hugged her into his chest finally speaking ”Don't leave my side again.”

She nodded obediently and after a while she asked confused ”Robert, I don't get one thing, if he wanted to use me then why is he trying to kill me now.”

”He is not, he is trying to scare you and me so that I would let you go to him.”

She thought for a while ”Don't we have an alternative, I mean it seems impossible that I can dodge him for over a year, he is way to smart, he will come up with something.”

His body stiffened, he didn't know what to say so he chose to lie to her ”There isn't any other option...” he was cut off by Jessica who just entered the room ”Don't lie to her, you know it there is an alternative to this plan.”

Rachel looked at her curiously ”What is it?”

Robert didn't let Jessica speak and glaring at her he said authoritatively expecting her to go along with him ”It's nothing.”

Jessica ignored him and spoke ”If you have a baby with Robert... ”

”SHUT UP that's enough, leave.” a loud and angry voice cut her and this time she knew she could not mess with him anymore so she left scared but Rachel was not going to let him of the hook. She cupped his face and made him look at her ”Tell me the truth, is that right.”

Robert closed his eyes and nodded, pushing the anger away, he opened his eyes ”Please don't worry about that, I can still protect you even without getting you pregnant.”

Rachel closed her eyes and tried to register the mess she had gotten into, the more she tried to get out of it, the worse she was getting pulled into it, she opened her eyes and spoke ”I trust you, protect me well.”
