Dear Ex-Wife You Are MINE (Victoria and Alessandro) novel Chapter 108

VICTORIA'S POV...

I blinked my eyes heavily as the sudden bright light was like a noddle poking on the eyelids.

"Slowly, open your eyes. It's alright. Everything is fine." I heard Alessandro's soothing tone, which worked a lot to calm the restlessness inside me.

With a couple more blinks, I finally was able to open my eyes. Before my eyes, I saw the five most familiar faces.

Mama, Papa, Ant, Aless and my doctor.

I stared at them. My mind turned blank all of a sudden. I just couldn't process anything and everything felt so out of place.

My hand subconsciously went to my belly and clutched onto my bump. Thank God, My baby is fine!

I tried to sit up and Mama and Aless helped me sit up. My eyes roamed around the whole room blankly and then fell on my parents' worried faces.

I blinked a few times and slowly, everything started clear in my mind. Those images from the gallery and the war in my mind I just had, everything...

My lips parted but, I couldn't form a word, just felt ticklish on my cheek. This feeling is known to me now. My tears chose to roll off my eyes.

Mama sat beside me and hold my hand. "What happened, baby? Why are you behaving like this? Look..." She gulped the heaviness in her tone, "Look, your mama and papa are here. What happened? Say to me, baby."

"I..." I gulped. "Is that true?" I couldn't help but ask the question that lingered in my mind. "Is that true, mama?" I looked up at my father. "Papa?"

Mama's hand froze and Papa's expression dimmed, making my heart tremble furiously. Why? Why is their reflection giving me a shiver? Why is the silent answer not flattering me? Why!?

"What are you talking about, Princess? Why all of a sudden you are saying this even!? That bustard told something and you are making a fuss of it? Victoria, doll, please, don't be like this. You are hurting our parents." Antonio stepped forward.

He seemed frustrated and somewhat displeased. But, I could not remove the restlessness inside me if I don't get the answer!

He is frustrated, I know. Then what about me? Ain't I hurt? Ain't I get frustrated?

I wanted to shout but I couldn't!

"I know he is not worth it. I also know Smith and we have conflicts. But..." I closed my eyes recalling his face and those words that fell out of his mouth. "The words he spoke have a lot of meaning behind it. His expression gave away his rage toward me. Why would he lie just to drown me like that?"

I looked at my mother and then my father, before asking, "I... I just want to know the truth. Did... Did he say the truth? Am I not..." I gulped again, saying the most difficult part, "Am I not your daughter?"

I said out. My tone was low but enough for others to hear them.

Mama's hand stiff as she stared at me blankly and before I realised,

'Pang~'
