CHAPTER 15

"Will you return on Miss Ella's due date, Sir Marcus?" Patty was inquisitive.

Marcus was at a loss for a response to Patty's query and sought Daniella for assistance. Why did she inform them that his absence would be brief? "In fact, I am not-"

Daniella cleared her throat in an attempt to suffocate Marcus. Whatever he was about to say had to be kept silent in front of her workers. "He will not be present on the day of my due date, Patty. His commander would dispatch him to Syria to combat ISIS," she responded to Patty's inquiry on his behalf. However, she was unable to inform them that her relationship with Marcus had ended!

"Syria? Syria is scary," Patty stated. "Do not let him go, Miss Ella."

"I am powerless, Patty. He is a soldier, and it is his responsibility to battle terrorists. In any case, if Marcus meets an accident while fighting, his corpse will be covered in a flag," she stated without looking at Marcus.

While it was true that a soldier's corpse would bear a flag, this was not anything to joke about. Marcus desired to reprimand the woman but did not like to shame her in public.

"Do not be alarmed, Patty; I am unbeatable!" Marcus stated as he scooped a portion of valenciana onto his plate.

"Good. Patty answered to his words, "Your child will require you."

Patty's remarks struck him hard, and he was at a loss for words. He had been cornered. As with a tiger cornered by a hunter in the wild, he had nowhere to go or hide. "Mmm, delectable!" He complimented Patty's cuisine after stuffing the patatim into his mouth.

Daniella ignored Patty's chat with Marcus and concentrated on her food. She was famished following their exploits in the shed and wanted to replenish her energies. She examined her wristwatch with a concerned expression on her face. "I'm sorry you loved Patty's cuisine, Marcus, but you're going to be late. Proceed immediately; I'll just ask Patty to pack some for you; don't forget to share it with your coworkers." She felt having a goodbye lunch was a wonderful idea, but she found it difficult to sit next to him.

Marcus was aware of what she was attempting, but he ignored her and proceeded to gorge on the delectable food on the table. "Calm down, Dani. I just have a few hours remaining." He responded, earning her glare. He was perplexed as to why she behaved differently when she was before pleasant and enticing. "How did you get it on your neck?" When he asked her to check on her neck, he purposefully raised his voice. The others got inquisitive, which made Daniella feel uneasy.

"It's only a kiss mark," Patty observed Daniella's neck.

Marcus grinned as he concentrated on eating, but Daniella stung him with daggers for humiliating her. He mused, "Good riddance." However, after a little moment, he hoped he could stay with her...a little longer. His request was not realized, as Daniella sent him out with a dignified farewell immediately following lunch.

Daniella let go of the sobs she had been keeping in as soon as Marcus left. She was neither a robot nor a superhero. She was a mere human who feigned that everything was OK, that she was not in pain, and that she would not miss him. Marcus made no attempt to return her gaze as he stood near his car.

Her vision blurred as tears streamed down her cheeks, and the next thing she noticed were the terrible cramps and excruciating back ache that seemed to crush her body. She was scared about miscarrying, but battling through the agony was extremely tough.

"Have a nice day, Miss Ella!" Patty rushed up when she saw her boss in pain, and Ella cried for aid when she dropped to the ground. Ella was carried to the car and taken to the hospital by the driver, who arrived running. "Peter, hurry up!" She directed Peter to drive more quickly.

"We are already moving quickly, Patty." Peter responded. They were already in the hospital three minutes later, and their boss was escorted to the emergency department.

Patty prayed for the safety of Ella's pregnancy. Ella understood that being overly emotional or depressed was bad for her baby, but she couldn't stop herself when her husband was forced to depart for Syria to fight terrorists.

Patty was advised by the doctor that Daniella need additional attention while pregnant. "She does not need to be stressed, Patty. "Follow me to the office so I may provide her vitamins," she instructed Patty to do.

Doctor Arbiol was a family friend, and Patty was relieved she was on duty at the district hospital where Daniella had been admitted. "I appreciate it, physician. Her spouse went for Syria this afternoon, which may explain why she was stressed out," she said to the doctor who was eager to listen.

"I comprehend," Doc Arbiol said. "Just keep an eye on Ella and make certain she is not engaging in any strenuous activity. It may have been devastating for her baby, especially during her first trimester." She clarified.

"I appreciate your assistance, Doctor. Do not be concerned about Miss Ella; I will look after her." Patty responded and then smiled at the female doctor as she exited.

"Patty, please do not notify Paloma of my situation." Daniella was adamant about not interfering with her mother's bonding time with Lilian. Earlier, while being aided by the doctor, she was able to hear her child's heartbeat and couldn't stop herself from crying. She regretted what occurred when she

was on the verge of miscarrying. She made a pledge to herself that she would never again compromise her child's health. Mugsy should take precedence above anything else!

"What transpired, Ella?" Were you disappointed that he had left?" Patty was inquiring.

"Yes, but I'm OK. "Do not be concerned," she reassured Patty, who appeared overly concerned about her condition.

Paloma phoned the following morning to inquire about her, and she falsely stated that everything was well. She was not yet fully recovered. She was still in pain as a result of Marcus, but she couldn't express it publicly for fear of embarrassment.

Daniella couldn't think about it now, but it was evident that Paloma's daughter detested her. "How did you feel, Thalia, when you delivered your son?" Thalia was a relative of Patty's and was in charge of housekeeping. She was a single mother who had to give up her job at the hotel in order to spend more time with little Nicko.

"You'll be OK, Miss Ella." Thalia responded. "Allow yourself a limited amount of soft drinks and cool water." She continued and explained to Daniella that it would be simpler to deliver the baby if he or she was not excessively large.

"How about doing a caesarian section?" She pondered doing a c-section as part of her birth plan.

Thalia gave a nod. "Of course, that is an option, but personally, I would like standard delivery. Although it was unpleasant, the healing period was brief. You're ready to depart in less than two weeks. Simply see your physician on the birth plan, Miss Ella." Thalia clarified. "Also, avoid excessive stress and simply be joyful."

How is she to be happy when her heart has not yet moved on? Although it had been a few weeks after he departed, she still couldn't get him from her mind. At times, she questioned if he was doing

well. She would be tempted to call him if she knew his phone number.

Daniella was saddened that Marcus made no attempt to call or even pay her a visit. He was aware of her address and telephone number. The man must be revelling in his newly acquired fortune as a result of marrying her. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Prior to the wedding ceremony, there was no prenuptial agreement. Even Paloma, who was notorious for her attention to detail, had forgotten about it. Marcus would legally inherit half of her assets, which she didn't mind. When she signed the paperwork, she instructed him to coordinate the process with her attorney.

"Sky!" Daniella's story began when Sky leapt on her. She used to do it when she was a puppy, but she was no longer a puppy and was far heavier than she was.

Thalia was frightened to watch Daniella nearly fall and snap at the dog. "I propose that Sky be placed in a cage, Miss Ella."

Thalia was barked at by the great dane, as if she knew what they were talking about. "Go on, Thalia; I will look after Sky." She stated when Sky began growling at Thalia. Since Marcus's departure, her bond with Sky has become deeper. She could be completely candid with Sky without fear of being criticized.
