Dear Ex-Wife You Are MINE (Victoria and Alessandro)
Chapter 67 It all depends on me...

ALESSANDRO'S POV

'I have a condition.' She said, and I immediately nodded, without giving it a second thought, as I was willing to accommodate any requests she may have had. To get her, I am ready to pay any cost.

"Say it. I am willing to do anything for you, Victoria." I replied like the lost puppy who just found its owner. And for the first time, I did not feel bad. Not at all.

I had washed away all my pride and arrogance before I decided to chase her. I didn't accept my defeat even after she threw me out of the house.

Yeah, I did wrong, and my action somehow turned deadly for her, giving someone else a chance to go close to her.

I wasn't mad because she wanted me to leave yesterday, but for Jayden. Fucking arshole! How dare he do that to me?! I swear, I will get back to him, but not now. Once I have secured my Victoria for good, I will consider it. For now, Victoria is the most important thing to me.

She stared at me. Her green eyes sparkled like a star in the sky, and I could watch them looking at me my whole life.

She put her hands on the railing and tucked some hair behind her ear. "You have three months probation period. In these months, you need to make me trust you. After that, I will determine whether I want to continue being with you."

Probation period? That made my mood a little dull, but I didn't think anything before nodding my head.

"I will do anything you say," I promised. Moving closer, I gently brushed away the strands of hair that had fallen across her face and tucked them behind her ear.

"I will make sure to regain your love and trust," I said as I caressed her cheek.

She closed her eyes and leaned on my touch. A few seconds later, her eyes opened again as she watched me.

"I am rooting for you, Alessandro." Her tone was soft, and I was confident I could keep my promise. She still has feelings for me. It's not yet gone.

It all depends on me now. I hummed only and kissed her forehead before looking into her eyes again.

"You only sketched in the cafe. Aren't you hungry yet?" I said, and as if it was waiting for the reminder, her stomach grumbled, making her flush. Aww... She looks so cute while blushing.

I chuckled. "Someone is hungry, I guess." I caressed her stomach, and her eyes showed a strange emotion when she watched me holding her baby bump.

What is with that look? Is she feeling tense about the baby's acceptance? I swear, it never came to my mind. I am willing to accept everything as long as she is with me. Whether this baby is mine or not does not matter to me.

I looked at her thoughtfully, intending to clear any doubt lingering in her mind. I have heard that women tend to get more nervous and sensitive during pregnancy.

Cupping her cheeks, I smiled at her assuringly. "Don't worry about the baby, sweetheart. What is yours is mine. I don't care about anything else." And I dropped a kiss on her slightly parted lips.

After I broke the kiss, she stared at me in a daze. She blinked, and her green eyes showered in confusion.

"Alessandro..." She said my name in a gasping tone. "You... Didn't know?" She questioned, and the question felt more for her than me.

"I don't know what?" I asked, genuinely confused.

She blinked a few times and then held my hand. Slowly, she guided my hand to her belly bump and placed my hand on her half-grown belly.

Her eyes found line once again as she smiled beautifully. "You are the father of the baby, Mr Devonte." Her eyes sparkled brightly.

I lost my thoughts for a moment and couldn't even think anymore. Never before have I experienced such intense emotions, not even when I received the news about having a baby three years ago.

I felt something prickle my eyes as my vision started blurring out. I don't know what suddenly happened to me, and I dropped to my knees before her.

This baby... In her womb... Is mine? This baby is mine?! I am gonna be a father?! I don't know, but it felt like too much pleasure.

I looked up at her, gulping the thick lump in my throat. "I am gonna be a... Father?" I whispered mostly.

She smiled with a nod. Her eyes were teary as she caressed my head. I couldn't hold myself anymore from hugging her waist tightly. All my doubts were gone. This baby is mine! Fuck! She has always been mine!

After hearing this news, everything began to feel more heavenly than before. I felt like a complete man at this moment. The woman I love is carrying my child! Oh, nothing could be better than this.

I kissed her stomach everywhere and heard her giggle. "Oh, Alessandro, it tickles. What are you doing?"

I smiled and kissed more, making her giggle more. I love the sound of her laughter. She also has the sweetest tone I have ever heard in my life.

Out of nowhere, her stomach emitted another growl, reminding her of its intense hunger. Her giggle stopped, and she flushed again, harder this time.

Smiling, I kissed her stomach again. "We won't wait for you anymore. Let's feed you some, so you can stop meddling with our romantic moments."

I stood up and stretched my hand toward her to hold as I silently looked at her, hoping she would understand my silent words.

Victoria stared at my hands for some time before slipping her soft one into mine. I intertwined our fingers, and her hand fits perfectly in mine. "Well, lead me the way, Mr. Devonte," she said with a smile.

I only hope I pass the probation period with this smile intact.
