The Billionaires Mistress novel Chapter 54

Ethan's POV

Seeing River faint made me act on my weaknesses to her.

I was concerned and I had to see her for more than one purpose but then again I had to protect her from Diana and sadly her own Mother.

For some reason at that moment I could care less I wanted to see her even though I would leave hundreds of people wondering all for one person but it was worth it because that person was the love of my life.

I was standing outside the hospital door and after having an internal battle with my self I decided to go in.

After I was directed to her room by mid aged women I stopped by her room number and the door was slightly open as the doctor was talking to her.

"After I questioned you I did a blood test to make sure my suspicions were correct and it turns out your pregnant congratulations."He beamed and she did not look happy her eyes were roaming everywhere but the doctors face.

I was, in fact, speechless this was the last thing at the moment I could ever think to happen.

How was I going to be married to Diana when I had kids who were expecting me to be by their side and River who needed me more than ever at the moment.

She sighed,"Can I schedule an abortion."The doctor gave her a saddened look before looking at his clipboard.

She couldn't she wouldn't how could she do something so cruel.

Shes killing our baby like that just because she's mad at me.

" We first have to do an ultrasound to see how far along you are and then if you are not over ten weeks then we can manage to fit you in tomorrow morning."He explained and she nodded her head as a nurse brought in the machine.

River pulled up her shirt up and the doctor applied a green gel on her belly as chills crawled down her spine.

"It looks like your six weeks along but it doesn't make sense because your baby bump is quite visible as if you were maybe fourteen weeks I'm going to hear the heartbeat to make sure of something if you don't mind."She nodded her head, yes and the doctor pressed a button as the doctor smiled."There are two heartbeats..... their twins."He chuckled and I could see a tear roll down Rivers' cheek.

This was quite surprising I had to admit but I had to convince River to keep the babies even if it meant leaving Diana I didn't care my children's protection was over everything.

She sniffed,"Ok so um when's the appointment?"

The doctor gave her a half smile before saying,"Tomorrow at ten in the morning."

She wiped her stomach clean and got up."Is it normal to throw up at least two times a day because when I was pregnant with my son I rarely threw up?"

The doctor nodded his head."It's completely normal especially because your pregnant with twins if you decide to keep the babies I can prescribe you a medicine that will keep that under control."After finishing the doctor gave her a paper and said."Just in case.

I quickly stepped out of view so she wouldn't see me.

Rivers POV

I really didn't want to give up my babies but how was I going to raise three kids on my own without a father.

It was hard enough raising Nate and he would question practically everything.

Everyone would think I'm a whore especially now because the business is growing.

I placed a hand on my stomach and burning tears began to flow down my cheeks.

I really do not want to give them up but wouldn't it stop him from his happiness with Diana.

I drove home with a million questions and scenarios racing around in my head.

When I finally built up the courage to walk in Ryan was sitting on the sofa.

Matteo had to leave because of an emergency at the company.

"Are you ok?"Ryan asked placing hands on my shoulders and I nodded.

"Yeah just pregnant."I replied blankly."I'm getting an abortion tomorrow."

"What?Why?"I threw my self on the sofa giving him are you an idiot look.

"Many reasons and the main one the father doesn't want anything to do with me imagine when he finds out I'm pregnant with twins he would probably abandon Nathan this time."I could tell his blood was boiling as he balled his fist.

"I know exactly what would change his mind."He said with venom in each word and I visibly gulped afraid of his next move.

"What do-"

He stood up glancing in my direction,"Don't worry about it."

Clearly, he was insane what did he mean don't worry about it.

"Ryan this time his whole family will be at my door if they found it they would think I'm a gold digger even though clearly I'm capable of raising my children finical wise and if I do decide to keep my babies I'm leaving San Francisco and going to New York for good."He sat back down this time he shot me a glare.

"Ok I will go with you just don't kill two innocent lives I promise I will be here for you and your children."

"I don't know I honestly couldn't imagine killing my babies because their father doesn't want anything to do with them."He rolled his eyes at that and then huffed a breathe.

I wasn't going to kill them. There are two lives not one and so no one would think the worse of me it was the best decision.
