Chapter 25

**This is a short one because I haven't updated in so long. My life has got the better of me. I promise I will update more often**

Christian's POV

'Grey' I snap, I am in the worst mood that I have been in since my teens. How the fuck can that stupid bitch let all this come out? I will make her pay.

'Sir, we have got hold of Mrs Walker, she is on the other line, shall I put her through to you?' Taylor seemed nervous, I have been snappy all week and took it out on him but I don't mean too.

'Leila? Yes put her through, let's see what she has to say for herself!' She can get into a lot of trouble for what has happened.

'Right away Sir' The line goes silent for a second then I hear a click and breathing on the other end. This must be her.

'Leila? Is that you' There is no reply. 'Leila? I know you are there' Still no reply, her breathing gets heavier, does she still think I am her Dom?

'Leila, I am no longer in charge, you are free to speak' I can hear her breath out what must be a sigh of relief, after all these years, she still feels intimidated by me.

'Sir...Mr Grey, yes I am Leila, I just want to say how sorry I am for what has happened, I didn't want it come out like this' Her tiny little voice hasn't changed one bit.

'What do you mean? It's all over the fucking news! How the fuck does he know anyway? The NDA was forever, not just for a while. This is going to ruin me, and if you don't sort it, I will make sure your life gets ruined too, believe me Leila!'

'I trusted my husband not to say anything. When I saw Teddy and Emily in Aspen and found out who they were, I couldn't concentrate on anything but you finding out that they saw me, my whole attitude changed and I was having panic attacks. John eventually got it out of me about me and you, he promised me he would keep it quiet but the next thing I hear is that he had gone to the papers with it. I don't know why. He is my Dom now, in the secrecy of the bedroom, so he knows how important it is to keep things quiet!'

She takes a breath and then she stops talking, I am still trying to figure out what she has just told me, I never knew how fast she talks, that was the most she ever said when she was around me. I decide to say the next thing very slowly show she understands.

'Leila, this is very important. You need to tell John to tell the papers that it is all a mix up, I can't get mixed up in this! I am no longer a Dominant since I met Ana, so for all this to come out now will ruin everything! If you are short on money I will give you some. Please Leila, I am begging you! I never beg, you know that.'

This is so out of character for me but this is important, I could lose everything! My social standing is important to me, I have worked too hard for all of it to be taken away.

'Mr Grey, I will talk with my husband and ring you back, just give me a little while'

'Fine, just ring me on this cell' I end the call and let out an audible sigh and I notice Ana is sitting on the sofa behind me. I walk over and sit next to her and without saying a word, she puts her arms around me and squeezes me tightly, I lay my head on her shoulder and drift away.


I wake up to my phone ringing, I am still in Ana's hold and she lets me go so I can take the call, it's Leila. Here goes, I answer the call and she speaks straight away.

'Mr Grey...Christian. I have spoken to John and he has told me that he is not backing down with this, he said that you were to blame for my mental health issues I had and this is payback.'

WHAT?!

'I was to blame?! I fucking helped you with everything! Did you tell him how I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to get you into the best possible care?'

'I told him and he said it was guilty pay, you felt guilty for making me the way I was, he won't listen to me'

'I will sort it!'I snap the phone down and throw it onto the coffee table. I need to get this sorted, and I don't care what I have to do.

Emily's POV

My tummy moves again but this time the baby girl hits my ribs, she does that all the time and it doesn't hurt any less. Teddy had his head on my stomach when she moved and it must of hurt him because he shoots up.

Our baby girl is a feisty one like her mother!' He hugs me and we both stay silent for a few minutes until Ted speaks up. 'Sweetheart, should we think of names for the babies? I have a few in mind'

I haven't even thought about names, I thought I would just know when I saw them what the names should be but now my lovely husband has brought it up, maybe it's not such a bad idea.

'OK, that sounds good, What were the names you were thinking of?'

'Well..' Teddy says as he shuffles into the sitting position, 'My grandma's nickname for my grandad was 'Carry' and I don't want to use his name in the full term because that was his name, but we could use his nickname for our daughter? Maybe Carrie? Spelt C-A-R-R-I-E? I want to remember him as much as I can'

Wow! What a beautiful thing to say! I love that Teddy takes after his mom, he shows his feelings all the time and I love him for it.

'That would be amazing! I have actually thinking about names also, I was think Annabelle? Like after your Mom? But now you have said Carrie...' I stop, he grabs my hand and looks at me.

'Baby, that is the best thing you have said in a while! The names go perfectly together. Carrie Annabelle Grey, a strong, beautiful name. What about the boy? I can't think of any names for the boy' he looks at me with his beautiful grey eyes and we sit there for a few seconds.

'I got it! What about Taylor?'

'What? You mean my dad's surname? How would that work?'

'Use Taylor as a first name, then we can combine both family names together, I am sure your parents would approve and I was thinking about the middle name Harrison?

Taylor Harrison Grey. I say the name in my mind a few times, this is going to be the name of my son, the grandchild of a billionaire, the son of the most amazing man in the world and I love it. I look down at my bump and give it a rub.

'Carrie and Taylor Grey we can't wait for you to meet your Mommy and Daddy'

Teddy gives me one of his trademark Grey smiles and we both start to giggle. This is starting to feel real.
