Chapter 42: Chapter 42
Louis was dazed. He glared at Miranda. He is going to be a father. Does it mean…he glanced at her and looked down to her belly to the extent he could see from the other end of the dinning table.
"I am two months pregnant honey. You and I are finally going to be parents" Miranda Alvan explained. She caressed her belly and smiled.
Louis' lips parted to reveal a beautiful smile with a diastema. He was so happy. He would be a father soon. He looked forward to a day like this.
"Come over here" Louis declared and Miranda did. They both walked away from the dining table and Louis placed his hand on Miranda's belly.
As if that is not enough, he kneeled before Miranda and caressed her belly more. Making his eye level the same as her belly.
"My baby" he mumbled, he is happy. No one can explain just how excited he was. Finally, he is going to be a father.
Miranda caressed Louis' hair and bent over, kissing his temple. It was like a part of Louis' heart suddenly learnt how to love.
"You're really going to make me a father? I love you Miranda" Louis chimed, raising himself to a full height and cupped Miranda's face in his palms.
He was smiling broadly. He bent over and started kissing her. She's going to give him the most important thing in his life, a baby.
From that moment, the relationship between Miranda Alvan and Louis grew. Louis practically adores her and wouldn't want her to lift anything with her finger except to bath herself.
He got the kids room furnished with the best baby things and toys. He got a different collection of books on how to be a great husband to his pregnant wife and how to prepare himself as a future father.
He seldom comes to the office again. He finds it difficult to leave Miranda alone. What if something happens to her, what if the baby makes her uncomfortable?
Ellis Hayden was getting too concerned about his son. He rarely comes to the office these days. He might be suffering from amnesia, but there are a lot of documents that need his signature as the president.
They had kept his knowledge away from the outside World. The employees didn't detect because president Hayden is not the type that interacts with employees that much.
The top official and managerial staff were informed to report issues to Ellis Hayden because the president is working on a project and doesn't need to handle the company for the time being.
And Ellis wondered why Pamela would stay away from Louis. She claimed he cheated. Louis furiously told her to go to hell. And she really left, she didn't glance behind her to see how Louis was doing.
This is not what being in love meant. She should be able to stand by him through thin and thick and not take his words to heart. What is happening about their love life.
Dejected Ellis arrived home. Leah observed the moodiness in her husband and came over to hug him by his shoulders.
Ellis kissed her and sank into the sofa. Leah sat next to him and asked "you are not looking happy today, Ellis. Tell me what happened? Is it Louis again?" She asked and Ellis sighed.
"I am unhappy Leah. Nothing seemed to be alright. I thought Louis would recall his memory. But he is not showing signs of it. What do we do about it?" Ellis inquired.
He is tired. He doesn't know how to handle things anymore. He cannot make Louis do the right thing. He is confused at the moment.
"Louis will be fine. He needs enough time to recover. I have faith in him. Our son is going to be alright" Leah declared.
Nothing interests her more than seeing her aims achieved. Miranda Alvan had told her how Louis humiliated Pamela and threw her off his side like a flea.
She even confessed to Miranda that she's lost Louis to her. That Pamela can make such an utterance, it excites her.
Louis will be fine and by then Pamela would've learnt to stay away from him. That is what she wants and that is what has happened. Miranda is good on the deal.
"I know Leah. But Louis and Pamela had fallen apart. Otherwise at this critical time, it shouldn't be Miranda Alvan that should be by his side…" Ellis was saying when Leah interrupted him.
"Common Ellis. Louis cannot remember Pamela for now. We shouldn't be worried that Miranda is by his side. I just want Louis to be alright" She casually commented making it look as if it's nothing.
"What if everything gets complicated for him later? What if he eventually came around and he had already been roped in by Miranda Alvan?" Ellis demanded.
If Louis truly had sex with Miranda, there might be a possibility that she would become pregnant with his child. And one day, he wakes up and remembers everything. What will he do then?
"Rope him, how do you mean!" Leah asked, squinting and worried that nothing goes beyond a deal between herself and Miranda.
"I guess Louis is having affairs with Miranda Alvan in place of Pamela. He took her to be Pamela" Ellis blurted.
Leah sprang up hurriedly.
