CG POV
I fell to my knees and cried as she walked out the door. I know she said she was not leaving but I could feel it she already had one foot out the door. I need to show her that this termination is the best option for us. I got up and walked quietly to the guest room and could hear her sobs coming through the door.
I could not stay but I could not walk away. I slid down the wall and listened to her. It was breaking my heart hearing how much this was hurting her. I continued to listen until I heard her hiccupping sobs subside. I got up and made it back to the room only for my alarm go off what seemed like minutes later. I got up and headed to the gym.
AS POV
No sooner than walking into the room I burst into tears. I slid down the door and just cried
I woke up to my phone ringing. Apparently, I never even made it to the bed.
I walked to my phone to answer. Catching my reflection in the dresser mirror. God, I looked like death won over.
"Hey Carrick." I said somberly.
"Don't Hey Carrick me Ana." What! What did I do to him? "Why the hell did you do this to my son? " What the fuck did Christian tell him?
"Carrick, what are you talking about?"
"It's Mr. Grey to you Ana. Why the hell would you cheat on my son?" WHAT! "I knew you were nothing but a gold digger." Wow that hurt. I cannot believe what he just said.
"What the hell are you talking about Mr. Grey?" I said through clenched teeth.
"I can't believe that you are trying to trap him with another man's baby."
"I am sorry Mr. Grey but what the hell are you talking about. I have never cheated on your son."
"You can't deny it. I have proof."
"What the hell are you talking about Carrick, I have never and would never cheat on you son." He was not going to believe a word I said.
"Oh, really you would never cheat. Then why the hell and I reading an article saying you are carrying another man's baby." I could not even listen anymore. I was seething I threw my phone across the room.
I grabbed my iPad and looked for the offending article.
Trouble in ParadiseIt looks like there is trouble with golden couple of Seattle. Our favorite couple is expecting but it is not even his. We have it on good authority that the misses are pregnant by another man. Inside sources have confirmed this.
Below it was a picture of each or us walking in and out of the OBGYN office separately.
I stormed out into the hallway. "TAYLOR." I screamed stomping down the hallway. "CHRISTIAN."
Taylor walked out of the security room.
"Ana, is everything okay?"
"No Taylor. Where is my husband?"
"He's downstairs in the pool." I thrust my iPad at him.
"You might want to go get him and deal with that."
You could see the shock on his face.
TAYLOR POV
What the fuck is this shit?
"How did you find this?"
"Carrick called to say I was a gold digger and said he couldn't believe I was trying to pin another man's baby on Christian."
"Ana?" I questioned
"Christian made a comment in the ultrasound room."
"What did he say?"
"The nurse was pointing out the baby and calling it your baby to him. He spoke. "That's not my baby, I can't be a father." Are you serious, Ana? Who do you think did this?"
"There was only the nurse in there with us. She was new, I think. As I have never seen her. Her name was Amanda."
"I'll get right on this." I called Welch and stormed to the basement. I sure hope the boss can deal with the fallout from his comment.
"Welch, I need you to get a detailed report on a nurse from Dr. Greene's office."
"Got it T. Just need a name."
"All we got is Amanda."
"I'll get back to you." I hung up and called Barney.
"What's up T?"
"Shut this shit down now."
"What down, T?"
"You mean you haven't seen the article. How have you not seen this.?"
"Oh shit, well is don't say their names co it didn't come up in the alert. T has the boss seen this he is going to be pissed."
"Just shut is down Barney." I hung up the phone and screen shot the article.
I pushed the door open, walked to the pool waiting for him to put his head up.
"Boss, you need to get out of the pool. You are needed upstairs, now."
"Is it Ana? Is she okay?"
"You could say that but only physically."
"What do you mean only physically?" I handed him a towel to dry his hand and the iPad. The color drained from his face.
CG POV
No sooner than I dried my hands did Taylor just thrust the iPad into them.
"Read." He spoke.
I looked at the screen. Oh, shit this is bad.
Trouble in Paradise
It looks like there is trouble with golden couple of Seattle. Our favorite couple is expecting but it is not even his. We have it on good authority that the misses are pregnant by another man. Inside sources have confirmed this.
Below it was pictures of each or us walking in and out of the OBGYN office separately.
I swear I turned white as a sheet. I dropped the device ran upstairs as quickly as my feet would carry me.
AS POV
As Taylor left going to Christian. I walked to the room and picked up my smashed phone and took it back to the security office. When I walked back in and handed it to Sawyer,
"Sawyer, can you get me a new phone?"
"Sure ma'am." He grabbed a phone from the drawer behind him and put in my SIM card in. As soon as I turned it on the pings from text were relentless.
Mom Ana why would you ruin your life by sleeping with another man. You had it made. You could have been set for life.
Kate Ana, what is this article talking about? You would not do that?
Elliot Why would you do this?
Mia, please tell me this is not true.
Grace Are you okay Ana? I cannot believe that they wrote this.
Well at least someone believes in me.
Just then Christian come running into the room screaming my name.
ANA!"
"SAWYER." I yelled from the top of the stairs. He came from around the corner.
"Yes, ma'am!"
"For the last time stop with the ma'am bullshit. I am just Ana." He looked over to Christian.
"Sawyer did I ask you to ask if it was okay."
"Ana, I didn't..." I cut him off.
"I don't want to hear it Christian. I cannot believe you would do this to me. Not only do you not want our baby. Now the whole world and your family think I am a whore. I have been with one man! ONE MAN, my entire life and look at it now."
CG POV
Sawyer glanced at me when Ana said to call her ma'am.
"Sawyer did I ask you to ask if it was okay." Ana said through clenched teeth.
"No ma'am." She glared at him. "Sorry, no Ana."
"Good, you will answer to me from now on. You are my security. You will not relay anything to him," she said pointing at me, "if there is a threat to the safety of me or our baby. If I want him to know anything, I will tell him."
I was pissed. Who the hell does she think she is changing my orders?
"Sawyer, you will stand with your original orders unless I change them."
Ana spoke up. "Maybe you misunderstood me. Did I not say it clearly enough? Either it's my rules with security or no security at all."
"You can't be serious. You are my wife that puts a target on you head."
"Well, you didn't seem to mind making that target even bigger. Did you? I mean now I am just a gold-digging whore looking for her payday."
"I never said you were a whore."
"Really, Christian, because you told the nurse. You cannot be the father. I HOPE YOU ARE FUCKING HAPPY NOW MR. GREY."
"Ana, I didn't..." She cut me off.
"I don't want to hear it Christian. I cannot believe you would do this to me. Not only do you not want our baby. Now the whole world and your family think I am a whore. I have been with one man! ONE MAN my entire life and look at it now."
"Ana I will fix this."
"Don't worry about it. I mean it is not your problem anymore. I mean you did not want the baby. So, I guess be glad that the baby is not even yours. I mean whole world believes it so it must be true right."
"Ana, I promise I will make this right baby."
She glanced over her shoulder and said, "I don't need any more of your promises, I mean they have all been lies anyways."
AS POV
Sawyer followed me out to the car.
"Are you going to abide by the new rules or are you going back in?"
"No ma'am. Sorry No Ana your rules."
He drove me to work. I swear there were at least thirty paps out front of Grey House. Why did we have to move to the new office today of all days. I do not want to see him and now he is just a few floors above me.
Ryan met us outside and swapped spots with Sawyer. As we walked in the questions the screamed were like a knife stabbing my heart.
Whose baby are you carrying? Why did you cheat on your husband? Has he started divorce proceedings yet?
There were so many more, but I just went back to my Charlie Brown bubble.
Walking in everyone's eyes were on me. Looking at me with distaste. I stepped into the elevator and pressed my floor.
Getting in the elevator I stood behind so no one could see me. It stopped on the second floor and three ladies got on and pressed the tenth floor.
Did you read the article this morning? I cannot believe she would cheat on that man candy.
Well, what do you expect? Serves her right she never deserved him anyways.
You are right girls. Well, we will just have to be there for the fallout to catch him. If I were her, I would be out of town already. But I would never cheat on that delicious man.
I bet it is that man that guards her. She is always with him.
I just stood in the back and went to my bubble. I could not listen anymore. Now I was having Sawyers baby.
I walked into my office. Shut and locked the door, pressed the intercom and told Hannah I did not want to be disturbed.
I pulled out the sonogram picture and just stared at my beautiful blip. I cannot believe he does not think he can be a father. He is the most wonderful man when he does not doubt himself.
CG POV
Ryan called and said the paps were outside the building and they were relentless with their questions.
When I got to the office. I tried calling her several times, she would not take any of my calls, so I left messages with Hannah. I sat in my office all day. I must figure a way fix this. First thing I did was called my dad's cell. He did not pick up, so I called his office.
"Law office of Keller and Grey. How may I direct your call."?
"Hello Sally, can I speak to my father."
"Right Away, Christian."
You could hear her using the intercom telling him I was on the phone.
"Son, Are you okay? I can't believe she did this to you." He did not even let me get a word out just kept going on about the baby. "I can't believe she is trying to pass this baby on you. Well at least we have a way around you not having a prenup," Finally I had enough I screamed.
"DAAAAADDD! Listen I am not divorcing my wife Look she told me she was pregnant, and I freaked out and said I just can't be a father."
"Christian be serious she is pregnant by another man." Ugghhh, I really did do it this time.
"Dad, listen Ana isn't pregnant with another man's baby. Its mine."
"Oh... OHHHHH SHIT! Oh fuck."
"Dad what's the matter?
AS POV
"Ana, you have a visitor." Hannah said through the intercom.
"Hannah, I said I didn't was to be disturbed."
"I'm sorry, Ana. They said it was important."
"Alright send them in."
A man in a suit I had never seen before walked in after I opened the door.
"Mrs. Anastasia Grey?"
"Yes..."
"You've been Served."
