Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE! Chapter 50 Am I not allowed?
VICTORIA’S POV
I rolled onto my round bed as the ray of light fell on my eyes. With birds chipping, I flattered the lashes and opened my eyes.
It’s a bright sunny day in Paris. With the amazing smell of flowers tickling my nose, I stretched my hands before sitting on the bed.
It has been three months since I left home, and I am currently residing in Paris. I have resumed my studies, albeit through distance learning, as per my family’s strict orders. Despite that, I am enjoying my time here.
After getting ready, I dressed up in a knee-length, bright floral dress and paired it with soft sponge sandals. As I looked at myself in the mirror, I focused on my baby bump in particular.
I am now visibly pregnant, having reached the five-month mark, and I can feel the transformations taking place in my body. Although it can be a bit overwhelming, I am thoroughly enjoying every aspect of motherhood.
It’s a different feeling; mama said she would come here next month and accompany me with the baby growing up.
I caressed my belly, “I love you, my child.” Kissing my palm, I pressed my hand over my belly.
Twirling around for one last time, I walked out of my room and was immediately greeted by the fragrance of a chicken sandwich by Maria.
Oh, yes. I am strictly forbidden to eat outside food. So, mama sent Maria and James with me to keep an eye on me. Not to mention, Sage and Daniel are also here with me.
I went to the kitchen. “Good Morning, Maria,” I greeted her with a back hug. Maria smiled and asked me to take a seat.
As I sat down with my legs on the chair and started reading a newspaper, the doorbell rang.
Maria spoke from the kitchen, “Perhaps James has returned from the grocery.” She was heading towards the door when I intervened, standing up and saying, “Allow me to handle it.” I then proceeded to open the door. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
The moment I opened it, I gasped in surprise at a grinning handsome face in front of my eyes. His soft brown eyes glowed as if he had found a gem.
“Hey, beautiful,” Jayden winked before taking me into a hug.
“Hey!” I hugged him back, recovering from my shock. “What a pleasant surprise! What are you doing here?” I asked.
He pulled his suitcase from behind, still grinning, “of course, to accompany my little best friend!” And before I could say anything, he pushed me beside him and walked straight inside with his suitcase.
Closing the door, I trailed behind him. He had already entered the kitchen and started eating sandwiches. “Hey, that’s mine!” I snatched one from him, rolling my eyes.
“What?” I turned in confusion, but there was nothing… “Oh!” I was surprised when he suddenly snatched away the sandwich from me. “Jayden!” I narrowed my eyes at him. “That’s not fair!”
He only shrugged, and Maria chuckled.
“Mmm… World’s best chicken sandwich this is, Maria,” he chewed and praised. Well, he knows well how much Maria loves to hear the praise related to her cooking.
He bent down and kissed her cheek in a friendly manner. “Thank you so much for this delicious breakfast.”
“Oh, sweet boy. Just let me know what you want to eat, and I will make it for you!” Maria excitedly promised.
I looked at the suitcase and turned to the chewing Jayden. “What is this? Why are you suddenly here?”
His brow arched at my question as if asking if I was kidding him.
“Didn’t I say I want to accompany my best friend? I am staying here for a couple of days,” he admitted.
“Here?” I asked for confirmation, and he nodded.
“Why? Am I not allowed?” He asked, looking at me.
Something in those brown eyes was different, and I don’t know why, but his playful demeanor suddenly changed. Or maybe, I am just thinking too much?
Shaking the thoughts away, I shook my head vigorously. “No, of course not! You are always welcome; I am just saying, won’t it affect your work?”
I’m not entirely at ease with him staying here just for me. It could be that I’m overreacting due to my pregnancy hormones, but I don’t believe it’s appropriate.
He didn’t reply for some time, and finishing the last bite of the sandwich, he turned his gaze to me.
“Our company has a project in Paris, So I need to stay here for someday, so I thought, why not accompany you while doing that or what do you think?
He wiggled his brows at me, which somewhat took off the curtain of hanging discomfort.
A smile crept on my face as I nodded, “of course, a very good idea!” I appreciated his thoughts.
“I’m sure Daniel will be delighted to see his brother here too. By the way, does Daniel know that you’re here?” I inquired, and Jayden affirmed with a nod while pouring for himself a glass of orange juice.
“No, I didn’t tell him before. Otherwise, do you think I would be able to surprise you? That little idiot only knows to gossip!” He shook his head, thinking of his brother’s childish behavior, which made me nod in agreement.
“Well, you are right about that.”
