The Billionaires Mistress novel Chapter 11

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.
