The Billionaires Mistress

Chapter 10

Ethan's POV

"Fine."She replied while rolling her eyes and then making her way into the car.

"It's not the city named hospital it's the one near the bridge."She informed me and in less than fifteen

minutes we pulled up into the hospital driveway.

Once I parked the car River ran out quickly and I tried to catch up to her.

"Can you please tell me the room Jeanine Campbell is in?"She asked the young women at the desk

which I assume was the secretary.

The women kneeled her head to scan the computer and then finally pulled up her head slowly like we

have all day.

"Jeanine Campbell is in room seven hundred twenty-three.That is on the ninth floor."The women

replied in a calm tone while smiling but River ran before she could notice and I thanked her before I ran

behind River.

When I caught up to her she was pressing the elevator buttons like a complete maniac and I tried to

back her away because what she was doing was only hurting her but she moved her hands away while

giving me a death stare. Once we reached the room Rivers mother was being taken for a checkup

along with two other policemen and I stood far but not too far so if something happens I will be there

hopefully.

"Mom... Are you ok?"She asked, as a tear fell down her rosy cheek but she quickly wiped it away.

"River you are a disappointment to me.I expected more from you. How could you do this? How could

you have a relationship with a married man?" Her mother asked, turning her head. For a second River

looked confused but then she flashed a look at me that scared the daylight out me personally.

Her mother was talking about me. But wait River and I do not have a relationship. If anyone heard this

woman talking my days as a businessman were over.

"No... no mother- you clearly do not understand-" River began to breathe heavily.

"I don't want to hear it."Her mother motioned her hand for the doctor to take her.

"No.. Mom..No, please... Please.Let me explain."She begged and then immediately fainted which

caused her to stumble and I quickly ran to catch her before she fell.

"River."I yelled while caressing her cheeks.She did not even flinch.

This got me to panic heavily.

"Can someone help me?"I practically screamed across the hall and a couple of nurses and a doctor

rushed over to me.

"What happened?" A petite mid aged doctor asked looking at me like I did something and I should be

charged an execution.

"She was talking to her mother than she suddenly fainted,"I replied while they lifted River to a hospital

bed.

Then the thought finally registered in my brain.

Damn it I should have stopped her before she got upset.

"There might be a slight chance she's pregnant and I do not want anything happening to the baby let

along its mother," I commanded looking at River's angelic face.

"Ok we will do an Ultrasound once she awakes because if we do a blood work it will take a while," she

said, looking at me oddly.

"Alright do what you have to do," I sighed, stroking Rivers cheek one last time.

Just touching her made a strong feeling spark deep in me and my heart race wildly.

"Take her to OB and you can follow along if you want."The doctor yelled and I nodded.Once they took

her in it wasn't long before she awoke and the doctor left a crack, of the door open so I can see.She

rubbed a green gel on her than began to move a weirdly shaped knob around her stomach.

"Yes you are seven weeks pregnant, in the first trimester," the doctor said smiling and I did as well.

The sight was truly amazing. The baby was beautiful yet it was so tiny.

"Everything looks good. Do you want to hear the heartbeat?She asked River.

"Yeah yeah please it would let me rest at night knowing the baby is healthy," she smiled and the doctor

pressed a button.

I tear fell from my eye from amazement.How something that little could be that strong.

Rivers POV

I could not believe how amazing it was. Hearing the heartbeat made a tear stroke my cheek. When I

scanned the room slowly I noticed Ethan was standing there at the door smiling.

A tear fell from his blue orbs. I honestly did not think that monster like him had a heart but maybe he

did.

I was getting attached to the baby.I could not get attached. I can't.

"I need to go," I said and the women smiled as she handed me a paper towel.

"You will come every month for a checkup so we can make sure the baby health is stable and so is

yours.Do not smoke, do drugs of any sort and limit any alcohol and caffeine as much as you can and

that means soda, coffee, tea and especially energy drinks.Drink as much milk as you can and try to

balance your meals. Vegetables and fruits are needed," She smiled as I got off.

"No problem,"I said rubbing my belly and I headed out the door to meet Ethan.

I was tired but my stomach suddenly grumbled.

"The baby is hungry."I laughed shaking my head and he chuckled.

"Are you sure it's you and not the baby."He smirked and I gaped at him.

"I'm positive,"I claimed, in a smug tone.

"Okay there is this great cheap place my friend Evan and I go to across the street with the view of the

ocean you and the baby can get fresh air while we get to know each other," he said walking towards

the car.

"If it is across the street why don't we walk," I said furrowing my eyebrows?

"If you want to walk then I'm fine with that but usually Diana cannot stand walking if it's not for shopping

purposes so I usually never ask even though I love to," he said while we crossed the street.

"Ahh, you have so much to learn you never know what the baby will take on from my characteristics,"I

chuckled and he smiled causing his blue eyes to sparkle.

Once we got there he ordered me what he thought was good and I sat at the table nearest to the ocean

view.

"River can I ask you a question?"Ethan asked, handing me a sandwich with a water bottle.

"Yeah," I replied biting into the sandwich and was surprised of the great taste.

So the jackass had taste in food.

"Was your mother the reason you made this agreement and can you tell me the story," He said playing

with his hands nervously.

"Yes and no," I said forcing a smile.

"What do you mean?"

"Well do you remember the night of the gathering when you saved me from Andrew?" I asked,

swallowing a piece of the sandwich and then observing him because he did not have anything to eat in

his hands.

"You're not going to eat?"

"Oh no thank you I'm not hungry please continue," he replied, shaking his head.

"That night was my worst nightmare. My father was trying to force me to get married to Andrew but I

refused so things happened and then he locked me in the storage all night."I took a deep breathe and

then continued."That morning he took me out and was ready to shoot me but my mother killed him by

slamming a pan on his head to protect me and that's how we ended up here it was the farthest our

money could take us. Once my mother got arrested I found out Aiden had empendhmoma and that's

when your mother showed up at the time I couldn't really object. My condition wouldn't allow me too," I

said trying to fight back my tears and I could see Ethan's figure tense.

"Wait, what?" he asked in shock."She knew about everything that happened to you yet she still went on

with the process?"

" I have no idea,"I claimed, looking at the ground.

"I am so sorry River. I swear I am if I knew this I would have never done this. I thought you just had

your eye on my money," He said grabbing my hand gently to stroke it.

My eyes widened,"You did not know this?," I asked in shock

"No I assure you I did not," he replied, shaking his head."Come on let's go."

We walked to the car, got in and soon we were back on the road.

"Hearing the heartbeat was beautiful thank you," he smiled warmly.

"What are you thanking me for?"

"For doing this for agreeing to this despite your condition River. Thank you," He said, stopping at the

driveway of the house I was staying in.

Once he left I entered the house only to see Andrew was standing there staring at me in the look I

resented the most.

"What are you doing here and how the hell did you get in,"I said anger rushing through me all he could

do was chuckle and I felt like taking the nearest knife and stabbing him with it?

"Answer me you idiot," I yelled.

"I came to get you, my love," he said grabbing my hand gently?

"Get me why would I go with you? Don't you understand I don't want you,"I said moving my hand away

from him?

"You will want me, baby, trust me you will." He shoved a napkin in my face and within seconds my

vision was suddenly blurring.
