Arrogant Billionaire Ruined Me

ABRM09

CHARLOTTE'S POV:-

Three months passed in a blink. Benjamin was done with the university and his father handed the business to him. His mother was still standing in my way but Benjamin made it clear for everyone not to get into my way. He was happy that I was not after his wealth and was trying to make a decent career for myself. At first, he was a little worried because I wanted to be a lawyer. But then, according to him, my career choice matches my attitude.

In the morning, Benjamin woke me up. But as I had been for the last few weeks, I was yet again lazy and didn't want to get up. "Wake up, little Tinkerbell. Or you will be late for your first lecture." Benjamin whispered softly in my ear. He started peppering kisses all over my mouth.

As always, he placed his neck against my nose for me to inhale his scent. He was wearing a different cologne. How did I know? Well, his usual cologne of mine and wood was so relaxing and soothing. The scent he was wearing at the time was too sharp. I started feeling like there was a sudden storm in my stomach.

With a loud gasp, I sat up on the bed and looked at him with wide eyes. "I knew my new scent would wake you up. Do you like it?" He asked me in a teasing tone. I was about to open my mouth and tell him that his cologne disturbed my stomach. But I was not able to say anything at all.

The storm I was feeling inside of my stomach, suddenly turned into a tsunami. I felt something bubbling into my stomach and moving upward. Without wasting another second, I jumped off of the bed and ran straight into the bathroom. I buried my face in the toilet, not caring for the locks of my hair that dipped into the toilet.

Next thing I knew, I was emptying my stomach into the toilet. My stomach was hurting and until it was empty, I didn't find relief. Benjamin was beside me, holding my long hair up so no more locks would dip into the toilet.

Once I was done throwing up, I sat down on the ground. "Are you feeling alright? What did you have for dinner last night?" He asked me in a concerned tone as he scooped me up in his arms and carried me to the basin. I washed my face and gargled with the mouthwash so I wouldn't taste the vomit inside my mouth anymore.

"I ate what everyone ate. It's your new cologne that just didn't sit right with me." I tried to lighten up the mood by blaming it all to his new cologne. Although I knew that was not the reason. I had been feeling nauseous and dizzy for a few weeks. I was hungry all the time, sleepy all the time and I couldn't workout anymore. But I definitely didn't want Benjamin to worry about it.

"I'll throw it away. I don't have time to shower right now. But I promise, you will not be sniffing onto that trash again." I wanted to melt in his arms, he was that caring toward me. And also very possessive. He didn't like me talking to my male classmates. He never really said anything but every single time, his mood gets sour whenever he sees me talking to my male classmates.

So I decided to lower the interaction to the minimum. Either we interacted in class and strictly about the studies. Or we never interacted at all. "Take a day off, will you. Rest a bit. I will call your friend to drop off her notes for you here." He whispered as he carried me back to the bed.

I thought about his offer for a bit then I remembered, I had a doctor's appointment at 10 o'clock. "Yeah! I'll sleep for a while then I have to go shopping. I need new clothes as my current clothes are starting to feel a little tight. Do you think I am getting fat?" I asked him out of the blue and he chuckled.

"Well, you look like a chunky cat, and I like this look on you. Buy as many as you want. You don't have to lose it unless you don't want it." He whispered softly while rubbing the tip of his nose with my cheeks. I started to feel nauseous again so I had to push him away from me.

"It is really hitting the bad spot. I will make sure to always check with you before buying a new cologne." He whispered as he carefully laid me down on the bed and covered my body with the comforter.

"Sorry! I really don't know what is happening. I am sure it's just this scent. But your old cologne is actually the best." I tried to cheer him on as I could see he was upset because of his new cologne making me nauseous. He placed a soft kiss on my forehead and I instantly started to feel the comfort that always engulfed me whenever he was around me.

"I should get going now. You get some rest. I will try to come back as soon as I can." I nodded my head as I heard him. He covered all the windows with thick curtains so the sunlight wouldn't bother me. He left the room. I grabbed his pillow, buried my face in it and fell asleep again.

…………….

It was 10 o'clock. I was sitting in the hospital, waiting for the results of all the tests they gave me a few days ago. I was continuously looking at my watch and the door of the lab. I was starting to get impatient. "Mrs Charlotte Leblanc, please, follow me." A nurse walked up to me and spoke politely.

I stood up and followed her behind. She took me to a gynaecologist, which was a surprise for me. But then again, everything was connected to the stomach. I couldn't really question why I was supposed to be a gynaecologist.

As I entered, I saw the lady doctor reading my file. "Oh, Mrs Leblanc. Please, come and take a seat." She spoke and I walked toward her desk. By the time I took my seat, I was freaking out. I was biting my nails because of the anxiety. She must have noticed it.

"There is no need to panic. It's good news, Mrs Leblanc. You are pregnant. That's why you have been dizzy and nauseated. I can't believe you put up with it for three damn months." My heart literally stopped when I heard what the doctor just said.

"Wait, what? There is supposed to be some kind of mistake. I can't be pregnant. It is impossible." I wanted to be specific about what I actually meant, but the shock was making me dizzy again. I could hardly think straight. I was thankful that I brought a driver with me.

"Oh! It's totally normal. Sometimes, condoms break and these kinds of things happen. Anyways, I am giving you supplements to keep you active and healthy, as well as your baby. With that, I will be giving you a diet chart. You shouldn't worry about the weight. For now, care about your child only." She added as she prescribed me a bunch of supplements. Without uttering another word, I grabbed the prescription and walked out of her office.

Driver took me back home. But I was a mess. I tried to think where I went wrong or if Benjamin and I had some sort of slip up. But I couldn't remember anything. Neither had I felt sore or anything that could have led up to the situation I was in. I was in my room, pacing back and forth. I needed to talk to someone and let it out. But I didn't know who to talk to.

The only person who could keep my secret and also help me out in this situation was father John. But he had been out of the city for the last two weeks. I crossed my fingers and dialled the number of one of the nuns from the church.

I didn't know why I told her the whole situation I was in. Maybe because I was panicking. "You don't have to panic, Charlotte. Father John just returned last night. You can come and see him right now." The nun replied almost instantly after listening to everything. I heaved a sigh of relief and hung up. I grabbed my purse and went downstairs.

"I need to go to church right now." I asked the same driver Benjamin had hired just for me. He always drove me wherever I wanted. But in case he was busy, he hired a driver so I wouldn't have to worry about anything. I hopped into the car and the driver zoomed away.

In forty minutes, I was standing in front of the church. I asked the driver to wait outside and went in. I was inside the confession booth after a very long time. "Father, please help me. I am in a situation I don't understand at all. And I have no idea how it all happened." I started to freak out again as I was finally sitting in that booth again.

"Slow down, my child. Tell me everything slowly. Your panic is not going to solve your problem." Father John replied in a calmed tone. I took a deep breath to calm myself down. But it was not enough. All sorts of fears had started rising in my chest. Especially the one that included Benjamin.

"Father, I don't remember being intimate with my husband. He has never touched me. And I know I am still a virgin." I tried to explain my situation to father John as calmly as possible.

"Okay, then what is the matter?" He asked me in a low tone.

"I just found out that I am three months pregnant. It's impossible. I was never touched. I never felt anything. He never touched me. How can I be pregnant? This is going to ruin everything. I have worked so hard to build a beautiful relationship with him. I love him and I don't want to lose him." I finally told him the reason I was actually freaking out. By the time I was done talking, I was literally crying like a baby.

What I had built with Benjamin, was a very precious and beautiful relationship that we both built from scratch. And we were so proud of that relationship. "Did you try to talk to your husband about it?" Father John asked me and I whimpered loudly.

"No! I haven't. I fear he is going to think that I cheated on him. But I didn't." I replied while crying.

"Do you believe he loves you the same way you love him? Is he also crazy about you the way you are for him?" Father John asked me a question I never really gave much thought to. I calmly tried to think about the last three months between us and they were heavenly. It was the definition of perfect.

"Yes! I know that he loves me the same way." I replied confidently.

"There is one way to ignore the conflict. If you talk to your husband before he learns the truth through the third person, I am sure you two will be able to sort things out." He replied in a low tone. I was scared he was going to say that.

"What if he didn't believe my innocence?" I asked Father John and he chuckled.

"If he loves you the same way, he will believe you. But you should be the one to tell him about everything. That way, he will know you are innocent. Because no cheater accepts that he is a cheater." I heaved a sigh of relief. Father John really gave me hope.

"Thank you, Father John. I shall be going to meet him right now. I will tell him everything that has happened today." I thanked father John and grabbed my purse. While father John promised to pray for me, I ran back to the car. I hopped in and asked the driver to take me to Benjamin's office.
