Golden Cage Mommy Mutiny (Elyse) novel Chapter 112

I watched him with an almost amused smile. Just as he ended the call, the ambulance pulled up.

He stood with a dark expression. “Elise, I’ll take you out to dinner another day.”

Then he dragged Lila out the door.

Then he dragged Lila out.

A dark trail of blood followed behind her.

I watched the whole scene unfold like a bad soap opera–oddly enough, my food still tasted great.

Until suddenly, I gagged.

Julian and I locked eyes. He jumped up, alarmed. “Are you… pregnant?”

“I don’t know.” I blinked.

My period had always been irregular. That’s how I missed the signs last time–when I lost the baby.

Travis had drawn so much blood from me I’d passed out cold.

When I woke up, the doctor told me I’d been pregnant… but the child hadn’t made it.

Julian scooped me into his arms. “We’re going to the hospital. Now.”

“Congratulations. You’re expecting.”

Julian spun me around in joy before gently setting me down.

He kissed my hand like I was made of glass. “Elise… I’ve never been this happy.”

“And then, without us noticing, Travis was suddenly behind us–staring at me, hollow–eyed.

Elise…”

A nurse grabbed his arm. “Mr. Langley! There you are! Your wife is hemorrhaging–we need your signature!”

He was dragged away.

The next day, we heard Lila had delivered twin girls.

Mr. and Mrs. Langley barely looked at them. Instead, they yanked Travis aside. “We’ve set you up with a suitable match. She comes from a solid family.”

Blair and Lila wailed behind them. “You can’t just leave us like this, Travis!”
