The Billionaire’s Regret (Alessa and Bryan) novel Chapter 4

Alessa slowly opened her eyes and looked around wondering where she was. It was an unfamiliar room.

She tried to recall what happened and it all came flooding in, she was packing her things when she suddenly felt dizzy and passed out.

She was about to sit up when the door opened and Dr. Wells walked in. Their family doctor.

“Mrs. Hart.” He called with a smile and Alessa faked a smile at him.

“How did I get here?” She asked as she slowly sat up.

“One of your maids brought you in, ma’am.” He replied and she nodded. His smile was weird which made Alessa curious. What was going on?

“It’s good to see you again, Mrs. Hart.” He said. Alessa faked a smile. If only he knew she wasn't bearing that last name again.

He kept smiling which was starting to freak her out.

“Is everything okay?” Alessa couldn't help but ask.

“Congratulations, Mrs. Hart. You are pregnant.” He announced. Alessa felt everything around her pause as his words echoed in her head.

She thought she heard wrong so she let out a chuckle and shook her head.

“What?”

“You are pregnant. You are four weeks pregnant.” He said. Tears welled up in Alessa’s eyes as she heard the news, she felt so relieved. Like the weight of the world on her shoulders has been lifted.

This could change a lot, this means Bryan will take her back and his family will love her again. The best part of it all, she isn't barren like she thought she was.

“Oh my God.” She smiled out tears and chuckled.

“Can you call my mother-in-law?” She asked.

“Why? I can call your husband.” Dr. Wells replied, finding her request odd.

“No. Call my mother-in-law instead. Tell her it's really urgent and she needs to be here with Bryan.” She said and the doctor nodded.

“No problem, I will do that now.” He replied with a smile and walked out of the room.

Alessa sighed in relief and smiled, she wiped her tears and placed her hand on her stomach.

“Finally.” She whispered to herself.

After what seems like forever to Alessa, Bryan’s mother arrived.

She walked into the ward and Alessa sat up immediately.

“What is this about? You seem fine.” She said and rolled her eyes. Alessa cleared her throat and was about to respond when the door opened revealing Dr. Wells

Behind him was Bryan and Lydia.

Alessa felt her heart shatter seeing her, he really had to bring her. Is he trying to humiliate her at every chance he gets?

She shrugged off the thought, after all, she is pregnant, once she breaks the news to them, everything will be fine again.

“Dr. Wells, what is going on?” Bryan asked as he walked towards the bed. Lydia locked her arms to him and held onto him tightly.

She was glaring hard at Alessa.

“I believe she wants to announce the news herself.” The doctor replied, nodding at Alessa.

“I’m pregnant.” She said, staring at Bryan. His eyes widened in shock.
