Dear Ex-Wife You Are MINE (Victoria and Alessandro)
Chapter 62 The love yacht

VICTORIA'S POV

I didn't wait for anything else as I ran into the washroom. I went to the bathroom pan and vomited everything inside me. And practically, there was nothing much.

I can't believe he fed me pork! I am crazily allergic to pork and shrimp! Fuck!

I felt so drained, and my heart sank at the thought that the man who used to be my husband for three long years didn't even know what I am allergic to!

The effect was so heavy that my stomach suddenly started aching, and my heart was clenched tight in fear of losing my baby!

He fed me pork... Pork... Pork... Pork... Pork...

That was the only thing that was roaming in my head. More than the pain, I was scared to lose my baby as I heard gasps and footsteps behind me. "Oh, God!" I heard Maria's squeal as she ran toward me.

She held me in her arms, and I am glad she did. I almost lose all my energy; I felt like tearing apart. A painful sob came out of me.

"Oh, don't be afraid, sweet; James called the doctor!"

"I..." I couldn't speak anything but closed my eyes with a heavy breath. Soon, I heard Jayden and Daniel's tone in the bathroom.

Even though I heard their words, I couldn't catch anything but loud noises. Their tone was too disturbing for my sound system at the moment.

I opened my eyes to shush them, but then my eyes fell on the man responsible for this condition.

The moment my eyes caught his blue eyes, suddenly my heart clenched once again and thrust me back to the painful memories that were all caused by him or happened because of him.

At the moment, he felt like the man who tried to murder me and the growing baby in me. Wait... Does he?...

A thought crossed my vulnerable mind. What if he did it internationally to kill the baby and get rid of it? So that he doesn't have to take any sort of responsibility?

Fuck! I stared at him even though everyone was anxiously trying to talk to me, but I fell into a daze.

Would he do that to me? Like, for real?! Did he come here with the sole purpose of persuading me to do something in order to harm the baby?

No! A voice screamed in my head as I clutched my stomach.

I watched him in horror, and it deepened when he tried to come toward me. I struggled myself away from him.

"No! Go away! Leave my baby alone! Go! Go!..." I screamed, and suddenly my head spun as everything turned dark before my eyes.

I tried so hard to keep myself awake, but the pain and the sudden darkness crushed me heavily to send me into the dark hole...

****

I frowned, trying to replace a design, but unfortunately, there was no inspiration! I sighed, leaning on the chair of the cafe.

Café Des Amoureux is one of the best cafe shops in Paris, and I love this shop. Peaceful and filled with sweet lovers. As I am trying to replace my inspiration related to love, I chose this place, and thank God he is not here to pester!

Though Jayden and Maria were not pleased by my decision to come here after what happened yesterday, I insisted as Sage and Daniel are accompanying me today.

Daniel sneered. "Boss, it seems you're stressed about design even in the Lovers' Cafe?"

"Yeah, one of the reasons is you keep disturbing my ideas," I replied as his handsome face turned gloomy.

"When did I disturb you?" He complained as Sage only scoffed. "Fine, I won't talk!"

"I just don't understand how you are still so calm after last night?" Suddenly Daniel asked, forgetting the promise he had just made a second ago. "I would have put him in jail in the attempt of murder. How are you still allowing him to roam around when he almost killed you?!"

My hand, which was busy sketching, stopped in the middle, thinking of the saddest part. I bit my lower lip before starting the sketch without looking at him.

I know what exactly happened last night while I wanted to taste Alessandro's prepared food. He really did try his best but... His best kind of killed me.

What Daniel said is the half-truth of what happened. Alessandro's hard work proved deadly for me, but I believe that his intention was nothing of that sort. I have seen the guilt and fear in his eyes.

Last night, he prepared dishes for me, and the most special dish there was made of pork. Like shrimp, I am also allergic to pork, but Alessandro never knew that, just like the shrimp.

Unfortunately, when he cooked for me on both occasions, he included shrimp and pork in the dish. Anyone who would get to know this, especially people from my side, would always think the way Daniel is thinking.

I am allergic to both shrimp and pork, which makes me sad. It's hard to believe that I stayed married to him for three years despite this, and even though it was his duty as my husband to take care of me, he never truly fulfilled his vows.

Alessandro never tried to know, even if that caused me trouble.

Last night that one bite of pork was like hell for me. I was really angry and scared of the risk of losing my baby because of Alessandro after Jayden, and Maria rudely kicked him out of the house; I didn't even try to stop them.

Well, I couldn't even stop them even if I wanted to. I already lost consciousness after getting paranoid with some crazy thoughts of mine.

After I woke up this morning, I regretted my thoughts against him. Alessandro would do lots of things, but killing is not one of them. At least, I know him in this sector.

He would never try to kill the baby or me, but...

I sighed.

It really hurt me badly, and I was so scared of the risk of losing my unborn child that I was forced to lose my sober mind at that moment.

However, at this moment, I am feeling a little low.

I won't say I was so happy about his presence once again in my life. I was sad, but I am also feeling low to not having him around and his constant pestering.

Honestly, I am not getting my own mind nowadays. Like, a few months ago, I was thanking God that he was not here, and now, hearing Daniel's words against Alessandro makes me empty and angry!

I mean, am I going crazy with time?

And suddenly, I just realized that I am constantly hoping for Alessandro to come around here. Maybe, that is why I have come out of the house and chose this middle seat to get his attention, using 'trying to replace my sketch inspiration' to get what I really need.

Fuck! That man is seriously fucking with my senses!

"Excuse me, lady and gentlemen?"

My thoughts broke with an unfamiliar female tone as I looked up to replace the waitress watching us with her professional smile.

"Yes?" I asked, a little bit confused.

She kept the smile and kept three papers before the three of us and then roamed her gaze on us.

"Today is a very special day for the owner of café des amoureux, and he decided to know the choices of the customers. So, tonight we are providing a form called 'love form,' and you will write your favorite things here. One of the lucky customers will get the chance to visit the love yacht, which will be tailored to the customer's preferences and desires." She paused and roamed her gazes on us before saying, "You also can reject, but we would really like you to participate. You can also take there your loved one if you have."

"Oh, that's something cool," Daniel commented, taking one paper.

Sage watched me only. He wouldn't do anything I would say no to, so he is waiting for my permission.

I shrugged. Honestly, I was in a low mood; over time, it's getting worse, and the emptiness is increasing. This could be a chance to retrieve.

I nodded with a smile and took both papers, handing one to Sage. However, his expression didn't change, so learning about his thoughts was a bit confusing.

Daniel had already started filling the paper, and Sage only stared at it.

I took the pen left by the waitress and concentrated on the paper. It was filled with a set of questions.

'If you are in the yacht on a date, how would you like to decorate it?'

Even though I don't have any date or anything to take with me if I win, I still want to write. But, then again...

I looked around and saw couples there. I am not saying I have a high chance of winning. In my mind, I have a zero scope, but I am also thinking, what if I get it? Then, the couples would lose it, right? So, even though for once I picked up the pen to write for, I kept it down again while getting busy with my design.

Soon, the waitress came around to collect the papers before walking away. I didn't bother as I didn't write anything. It will be in the dumpster anyway.

I heard Daniel excitedly talking about his wishes to Sage and murmurs from other couples.

A few minutes later, it was time to announce that one lucky winner. The host is the manager of the cafe.

He started his speech. "Ladies and gentlemen. On this night of love, our café des amoureux has arranged a special date night for that one lucky winner. The moment that we have all been waiting for has arrived. So, the lucky winner of tonight's amazing romantic night in the precious love yacht is..."

I didn't even look up at the host as I kept continuing my design when my hand stopped moving as a shocked gasp came out of me hearing his next words.

"Miss VICTORIA EDWARDS..."
