Pregnant and Abandoned but the Billionaire to the Rescue

Pregnant? It was like a bombshell in Jason's ears as he echoed Nancy's thoughts.

'What are you saying?'

'I am saying that I am pregnant with your child'.

'My child? How so? We had always taken precautions!'

'Yes. But you see this things happen. There are always exceptions and mistakes And when it happens, we cannot run away from it'. she said looking worried.

'When did this happen?'

'I do not know but I found out today. I had been ignorant other wise. I had felt dizzy at the office and collapsed. The doctor was sent for and she confirmed it. I am about a month gone'.

'So, what do you want to do about it?'Jason asked confused.

'What do I want to do about it? What kind of question is that? I should be asking you what decision you ate going to take about it'.

'That's true but how do you know that it is mine? Afterall, ours was an open relationship and you had other partners and you just found out today. So how could you just conclude that the baby is mine and not any other person's?

'I knew immediately that it was yours because for about a month, I have not really been with any other man but you. So it couldn't have been someone else's'.

'Well if you are sure of that, we shall find a solution to that but right now I am exhausted and I have to think to arrive at a decision. Goodnight!' he said and stood up. She stood as well.

'Of you need to eat,you can ask Potts to make you something but I can barely keep my eyes open'.

'That's okay. I do not need good. I shall go home. I am tired as well and the pregnancy is making me weak. You need time to digest this information and I need time too to think about it. It came as a surprise. I need to get used to the idea as well, do some soul searching, and make some life changing decisions. Goodnight'.

She stood as well and left.

Nancy had already left. She could bear to listen to more.

Mrs Potts saw her leave and was shocked at how white she looked.

She tried to call her back but she waved her away and flew to her quarters.

Not long after that Phoebe came out and left.

And she heard her boss climb the stairs, as he retired for the night but Jason knew that he was not going to sleep that night or any night soon til he was able to resolve the issues besieging him.

Pregnant! Incredible. How was that even possible?

Was Phoebe trying to get him hooked to her by traping him with pregnancy?

What if what she wanted was money? She had said that marriage was not in her agenda at the moment, so maybe she wantedore money to further her business. Women can be very greedy. He had had one life experience that would last him for all his lifetimes, even if he reincarnated a million times and the slut was trying to get him back into her life.

If it had been just a few months after her betrayal, he knew he would foolishly have forgiven and accepted her back gratefully without thought but he had had time to overcome his hurt and had thought about the whole event logically. He felt that he should even be grateful to her for showing him her true colours as early as she did. If it had been later, it may have been worse.

Now, Phoebe had thrown her bombshell. 'She was pregnant with his child!'

He tossed and turned. But he could not seem to be able to sleep. How could he when he could not forget the discussion he just had with Phoebe.

Or did she say that because he had indicated his decision to make their friendship platonic?

He felt in his bones that she was hiding something. Something was just not right.

They had an arrangement and she was on the pill and he had never been with a woman without sheathing himself, so how could she have become pregnant?

And how was she sure it was his?

She had said that she had not been with any other all through the past month and that made him responsible for her pregnancy but how often had he been with her in the past month, what with the work with Rebecca that was taking his time as well as other business ventures.

He had not even had much time with Nancy lately. Though she had been avoiding him.

What would Nancy think when she heard of this new development? There would then be no hope of them ever coming together.

He did not know why it should bother him that much but it really did and he had started considering her baby his as well.

In any case, he was hoping to bring a good uncle to him or her. Or a father figure.

Her pregnancy had started showing..

Phoebe, what have you done?

The idea of having a child of his own was not really repulsive but what he could not accept was the person who was going to be it's mother.

He realised that if it had been Nancy, he would not have raised much objections. In fact he would have been very happy.

What was so special about her?

She was not pretentious and tight from the time he had met her, she had not wanted his money. She preferred to work for her pay.

When he had given her the quarters to live in, others would have jumped at the offer but she had not and to pay in the way she could, she helped around the house like a hired hand. She was so humble and hardworking. And she was pretty as well. Her beauty was a natural one not enhanced by the use of make up.

Thinking about Nancy brought him peace and he forgot about Phoebe's announcement.

He would have to consult with his doctor. He had to find out alot of things and then in the guise of a medical check up, he would ask his doctor to conduct a pregnancy test to confirm of she was really pregnant.

Having decided that, he felt a bit relieved and still keeping the thoughts of Nancy, he fell into a deep sleep, exhaustion taking over his troubled mind.
