Chapter 17
Rivers POV
I awoke to the sound of classical music. If I don’t recall it was Fur Elise by Beethoven. Ever since I was
little hearing this piece would make me want to close my eyes and daydream of the best possible
outcome but now for some reason, that little girl faded. She was hidden behind a chamber and only
one thing can save her. What that one thing is only God knows.
“Good morning Ms.Campbell,” the doctor said,“My name is doctor Allison Blanchard, How are you
feeling today?”
“Fine thank you,“I replied, wiping my eyes and getting up as slowly as possible.
“Your blood test results are clear and now that your health is stable I would like to do an ultrasound to
make sure the baby is in good health. Of course, if you approve Ms. Campbell.”
“Of course whatever you feel is needed to help the baby,” I replied, joyfully.
“Great, can you walk or-”
“No ah yes I can walk,“I replied while getting up to walk towards the door.
“Here take my hand,” Dr.Blanchard said, extending her arm.
“Is anyone -”
“Ethan has been coming every day, his mother every other day or two along with your brother who has
discharged a week ago, and your mother calls every couple of days,” she said looking at me.
“How long have I been down?”
“About two weeks,” she said opening the door to the ultrasound room.
“How”I sighed?
“I will explain for now sit.” she said rubbing a green gel on me and she began to search,” ah here you
are, do you see how small and healthy the baby is,“she said as I nodded my head,” from what I can tell
your 17 weeks so if you don’t know I can tell you the sex of the baby.”
“Oh the whole Scott family expect Ethan knows because they did a blood test and sent it to a lab in
New York,“I replied, in a disappointed tone,” but I don’t know since the results came in when I was-”
“Would you like me to tell you,” she asked, smiling?
“No,” I replied, nodding my head.“Not yet.” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“It’s a healthy baby.” she said trying to reassure me,” this afternoon you can be discharged,” she said
handing me a paper towel,“I want to see you again in a week or two to make sure that you and the
baby are stable.”
“Thank you Dr.Blanchard-”
“Please call me Allison,” she replied, smiling causing her brown eyes to sparkle.
••••••••••••••
After I was discharged Ethan took me and my brother to his friend’s house.He said it was safer for all
four of us especially the fact my mother was also going to be released from jail in two week.So we
could not live with them for any longer.
“Hello welcome,” a voice from behind me said and I turned around quickly to see a guy who was
average height, with wavy black hair all brushed in one direction, blue-green eye, and his skin a tan
color.
“Hi my name is-”
“Yes, I know River and Aiden.My name is Micheal,” he said with a confident smile while extending his
arm my way and I shook his hand as well as Aiden,” the house is small it only has seven bedrooms but
I’m sure we can manage,” he said, nodding his head.
I was sure this guy was crazy in what world is a seven bedroom house small.
“So these are your rooms.“Micheal said, grabbing our bags and leading us upstairs.” Ok here’s the
second living room.”
“Follow me downstairs this is the kitchen and the first living room he said pointing left of the
kitchen.There is the backyard and don’t worry I have a security system on the pool.”
“I’m sure you do,” I rolled my eyes and a smirk formed on his face.
“I own a restaurant downtown and I’m working on a restaurant just a few blocks away the addresses
are in the phone book, the keys to the Tahoe are hung near the garage if you need to run an errand,
and here’s a phone. Ethan told me to give you it has my phone number, his and every other number
you will need one call and I will come running,” he said chuckling,“Any questions?”
“No not at all”
“Oh, one last thing Rene comes every day to clean and cook so don’t clean or cook anything it’s an
order from the Sargent.Do I make myself clear?”
“Yeah clear as day,” I replied, putting my thumbs up.
Right when Micheal opened the door a really tall and pretty girl with brown hair and amber brown eyes
appeared.
“Violet, Violet what are you doing here!“Micheal asked, trying to push her out the door.
She looked annoyed with him as she said,“You haven’t answered any of my calls or texts for the past
two weeks, Micheal, naturally I was worried but- Oh my god! I’m so stupid you’re with her, aren’t you?
Oh my God and she’s pregnant!”
“What the hell are you blabbering about Violet?”
She sniffed while replying,“Nothing, nothing at all.I’m just gonna go.”
I decided to step in because based on the smirk it looked like Micheal was amused with her
suffering,“Um were not together I’m just staying here because the father of my child thought it was the
best place to stay.”
“Oh my gosh really? Can I have a hug it looks like you need a hug.“I shook my head as she took me in
her embrace.
“Ok, I’m leaving.Do you need me to take you home Violet?”
“Yeah!“She said, handing me a card.“This is a birthing class that I’m taking.If you’d like we could hang
out from time to time.”
I shook my head.“Yeah, that would be cool!”
Diana’s POV
I walked swiftly down the staircase as Angelina approached me with a look that read what have you
done.
“Come here,” she said, giving me a death glare while pulling me by the arm.
" You’re hurting me, Angelina,“I whisper yelled!
" You deserve it,” she replied dragging me into the library while opening the laptop. She interested a cd
and the first picture that opened was me talking to Andrew the other day.
Oh my God how?
This has the whole damn negotiation.
" Why Diana? Why? You made a deal with the devil himself the trade was simply Andrew gets River
and you get Ethan but what you do not realize is, if Ethan sees this he will divorce you that second.”
" How did you get a hold of that?”
" Diana my name is Angelina Scott there is nothing I do not get a hold of.“She replied, closing the
laptop.
" Then do not show it to him-”
“Of course I am not going to show it to him you think I’m an idiot to go send him to a poor whore with no
morals but if you ever overstep me once Diana do not doubt-“She said pointing her finger at me.
“No I will never,” I replied trying to throw an innocent face on but once I turned my back I had a smirk
on the size of England.If Angelina thought she can threaten me well she has another thing coming
because I Diana do not allow anyone to threaten me.
..................
I wasn’t sure Andrew was going to go forth with the plan so I had to take matters into my own hands.
How? I still don’t know but for River to be with Ethan this was impossible for me to see better yet I
would rather kill her than see this happen with my own eyes.It was eight in the morning and Ethan still
was nowhere to be found just like every other night for the past two weeks.
I was just lying there staring into mid-air when he walked in surprisingly not drunk like every other time.
" We need to talk,” he uttered, glaring at me.
" Yea, we do and you owe me a lot of explaining,” I chuckled sarcastically. I was sick of the way he was
treating me.I know it is impossible for any women to take in this type of horrible treatment. We do not
talk anymore and nor does he acknowledge me at all. I felt like I was going to break into a lake of tears.
He threw a small bottle at me and I caught it surprisingly.I observed it for a bit and my eyes widened.
How the hell did he find it?
“Does that ring a bell?I found it when I was looking for my passport.“He said, giving me a murderous
look.” When you found out the baby River was carrying wasn’t yours instead of confronting me you
decided to kill them both.”
“Ethan that’s not true.I wouldn’t do that you know me.“I lied, beginning to tear up.
He closed his eyes for a bit and then opened them back up.“Diana were done.This marriage is done.”
“Ethan please-”
" I want a divorce Diana,” he said slamming the door shut behind him but for me, the argument does
not end here. I opened the door and followed him down the stairs.
" You have no right what so ever to say you want a divorce and then walk away,“I yelled as loud as I
could because to this point I did not care.
“Ahh yeah I do and I just did,” he yelled and Angelina came running downstairs.
“Why are you guys yelling this early in the morning,” Angelina whispered?
“Stay out of this mom. I told you, Diana. My decision is final, “he yelled looking straight into my eyes
and then turned his back the other direction to leave.
