The Billionaire's Babies Mother ( fated love )

Chapter 1: break-up

In Australia, Simmer Down restaurant.

Andrea sat down with a smug smile on her face as she stared at her fiance who occupied the seat opposite her. He had called her over the phone that he had something important he wanted to speak to her about.

The air was filled with nothing but peace and tranquillity but Philip's silence had started having an effect on her. They had been staring at each other for over 10 minutes and none of them took the initiative to speak.

Her curiosity got to the peak, making her break the silence.

" Darling, why did you suddenly call me over to our favourite restaurant? " Andrea said as she flipped the menu lazily.

Philip pressed his lips together and she could tell from his expression that he was tense and put in some sort of pressure.

He grabbed hold of her hands making Andrea raise her head from the menu as her gaze returned to his well defined face that seemed like a jade carving.

How could someone look this good? That was exactly the thought running through her mind.

" Boo relax, I know we are entering a new phase of our life tomorrow. You know getting married to you has always been my biggest......" before she could come to the end of her speech he cut her off.

" I'm sorry I can't get through with the marriage" he broke the news instantly.

He couldn't watch her having forced hope over something that was now impossible.

Andrea burst into laughter " boo you know how to make jokes now huh? you know this is not funny " she said.

Philip remained silent for a while thinking on how to place his words he didn't want to sound harsh.

" Andrea, I'm serious, I'm calling off the wedding, " he said again with a straight face.

The smile on Andrea face slowly faded, tears were already welling up in her eyes.

" Is this some kind of expensive joke, huh Philip? " she said with a hoarse voice. She suddenly felt as if there was a lump stuck in her throat.

She couldn't be bothered by the people staring at her right now.

" why? Tell me did I do something wrong? I promise to change, please just say something, " she said, gripping his hand as if he was about to run away.

Philip yanked his hands from her grip, he turned his head slightly away from her.

" I really need an explanation of what is going to happen to all the preparations we made. I mean the hall, the guests, the food......"

" The wedding is going to take place but not with you, " he announced.

Andrea froze, the tears she had been holding back began to fall on her cheeks.

" not with me? Who and what are you talking about? " she asked with a crushed voice.

She couldn't help but ask all the questions her brain could come up with,her mind was currently in anarchy.

Before Philip could speak they heard the sounds of a lady's heels beating the ground, the sounds of the footsteps approached them and slowly came to a halt.

" I will answer all your questions dear Andrea " she heard a familiar voice rang in her ear.

She abruptly raised her head and as she had thought it was her younger sister Lisa.

Andrea's gaze flickered in confusion. " What's going on here? " she said as she watched Lisa wrap her arm around Philip's neck.

Lisa turned to her with a smug smile " Philip Myers and Lisa Graham are getting married tomorrow that's the latest news " she said.

Andrea suddenly rose from her seat " what nonsense are you talking about Lisa " she said raising her voice.

Lisa turned to Philip as she pouted her lip like a kid that was wronged.

" won't you say something " she said coquettishly as she stroked his hair tenderly.

" I'm getting married to Philip and that's it " Lisa said again.

Andrea became infuriated; she abruptly raised her hand and hit Lisa on the face. " smack! "

"How could you betray your own sister? I have never done anything to offend you, have always treated you better than anyone and you stabbed me in the back " Andrea yelled.

Philip's silence only made her more furious and she could feel her blood boiling already.

Andrea raised her hand to hit her for the second time but this time Philip grabbed her hand and swung a slap across her face.

"smack! "

Andrea widened her eyes from shock as she held her cheeks in disbelief.

Lisa gasped from shock she was astonished when Philip suddenly hit Andrea on the face truth be told she was quite delighted.

" Philip, do you know what you are doing? It's me, your Andrea, " she said with a choked voice.

" Shut up, how dare you hit the mother of my unborn child " he roared angrily like he was about to bring down the roof.

Andrea froze for a second. She felt like a bomb went off in her head. Her mind was in blondas as his words just now rang again in her ears.

Her gaze travelled to Lisa's stomach and she could feel her hands shaking, she was overwhelmed with sorrow and rage at the same time.

She glanced at the both of them standing next to each other with their hands interlocked.

She began to retract her steps as her tears kept sliding down her cheeks. She couldn't even notice the gaze of the onlookers in the restaurant.

The manager had come out when he heard loud noises a while ago. Knowing it was the Graham's and Myers he didn't dare go over or interfere in their affairs.

Andrea grabbed her bag and ran away. She didn't even have anywhere in mind; she just wanted to go far away from anything that would remind her of this incident. She ran as far as her legs could carry her.

After running for more than five minutes she stopped to catch her breath. She placed her hands on her chest that was thumping crazily, to her surprise she still had a heart, she had thought her heart had shattered a while ago.

She was in no mood to go home; she just wanted to drown herself in her sorrows. She flagged a taxi weakly.

" Magic bar ale house" she said with a hoarse voice.

The driver nodded, she got in and he took away.

Arriving at the bar, she walked over to the counter.

" Give me a shot of tequila please, " she said to the bar man.

He nodded and placed it on the counter,she took it in one go.

" Another shot, " she said.

He gave her and she gulped it down at once for the second time, wrinkling her face slightly from the strong taste.

"one more "

" again "

" again"

Soon she became drunk to stupor,she could hardly sit still. She had a poor alcohol tolerance and she wasn't the one who fancied these things but today she just wanted to.

A man in a black hoodie and casual black pants approached her and sat next to her.

He glanced at Andrea who was dancing to the beat of the song drunkenly with her cheeks all rosy.

He tapped her on the shoulder lightly. " Can I have a drink with you? " he asked politely.

His voice was deep and magnetic; it sounded so pleasing in the ear, making Andrea turn around to look at him.

She couldn't even see his face clearly. Her vision was already blurry, nevertheless she grinned foolishly " uh-huh. Cheers! " she clinked glasses with him.

She gulped down her drink in one go.

" you know today I found out my own sister is pregnant with my fiance, that sucks right? " she said pointing to her chest as she laughed bitterly.

The man didn't say a word, he was only listening to her silently. His black hoodie was covering half of his face no one could tell what he clearly looked like.

She abruptly grabbed the bottle he was drinking from and drank from it.

" I'm sorry " she said as she tittered.

She suddenly burst into tears " how could the two people dear to me do something so vile" she said leaning her head on his chest in a languid manner.

The man lowered his head and his gaze travelled to her red cherry like lips that looked bewitching and alluring. The way she kept licking her lips once in a while only made it worse.

He raised her chin slightly and they engaged in a fiery kiss.

Andrea gave in to him willingly and she began to reciprocate his kisses as she wrapped her arm around his neck.

His kisses were very urgent, he kept kissing her till her lips turned hot and swollen but it only intensified the desire, his hands grabbed hold of her solid ass and he squeezed it tightly. While devouring her lips, he swept her off her feet and took her upstairs.

Chapter 2: one night stand

The following morning the sun shone brightly and pierced through the French window that was slightly opened.

" ring,ring,ring,ring " the sounds of the telephone tore through the air and brought her out from her sleep.

Andrea kept switching positions but the phone won't stop ringing. She weakly opened her eyes and her hand fumbled for the phone.

She picked it up and she heard a voice over the phone " hello madam,your payment is due would you like to extend your stay or check out " the lady asked

" I will check out immediately, " Andrea quickly said.

She held her head she felt like it was spinning she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her waist making her winced in pain

She tried to recall all the events that took place last night but the image was blurry and only made everything worse.

Her gaze went back to her exposed shoulders , she quickly lifted the quilt and her eyes widened in shock.

There was blood and it came out from her, which means she had lost her innocence.

" Oh my God, what happened last night? " she asked no one in particular as she palmed her lips.

She tried to get up but she felt like her waist and legs were condemned. She didn't know whether to start laughing or crying.

" How intense was it last night? " she thought.

She looked at the room clearly and there was no one around. She didn't even get to meet the stranger she had sex with last night.

Her gaze travelled to the waste bin close to the door. She went over with difficulty each step she took. She could feel her legs shaking. She turned it upside down but there were no used condoms.

Her heart sank instantly, which means they didn't use any protection.

Or did he perhaps put the condoms in his pocket? " She asked no one in particular.

She smacked her forehead " how can someone do something that disgusting just face the reality Andrea you are doomed " she said to herself.

What if he has HIV or some kind of disease ?

"Oh God, help me " she mumbled as he shut her eyes tightly as her thoughts ran wild.

" What a jerk, he took advantage of me and ran away before I could wake up " she said as she snorted.

"ring,ring, ring " this time the sound was coming from her bag she walked over and brought out her phone from her purse.

She glanced at the caller ID rolling her eyes. It was her evil stepmother.

" What do you want? " she demanded coldly with no hint of emotion.

" Young lady, don't you even dare, where are you? Today is your sister's wedding. Do you have to show the whole world how much you hate your sister, " Rosette said over the phone.

Andrea chuckled codly and hung up without saying a word.

She picked up her bag to leave when her eyes caught sight of a men's watch which looked attractive and dazzling. She was suddenly drawn to it. She picked it up and put it in her handbag casually.

" I will take this as compensation for condemning my waist and leg. That's if it even costs 5 AUD" she said and scoffed loudly.

She checked out and flagged a taxi to Westwell Estate.

Throughout the ride, she kept trying to pressurise her brain to recall everything that happened last night, especially the man's face but there was no image she could find.

"I must have been really drunk to stupor last night." she said inwardly.

Westwell Estate

When she finally arrived she got down from the taxi and paid the driver. She proceeded into the house, the house was filled with busy workers and servants. The hall was beautifully decorated in blue and white flowers with a picture of Philip and Lisa in the shape of a heart kept in the middle.

Guess there might be an after party she thought.

She wondered how long she had been kept in the dark. She had been dating Philip ever since college who knew a day to her wedding she would find out something this big.

She strolled into her room, threw her bag on the bed and went into the bathroom.

She took off her clothes and she felt a white liquid sliding down her legs.

She threaded her hand into her hair. She had forgotten she wanted to stop by to get some contraceptive pills.

She quickly took a shower and came out in her white bathrobe.

She put on a pink cocktail gown with her hair tied up in a messy bun. She only did her skin routine without wasting any time to apply makeup before heading out of the house.

The chauffeur was already waiting downstairs, and soon she arrived at the church. This was the church she was supposed to get married in with Philip.

She nervously pushed the door open and all the guests were already cordially seated. Her gaze travelled into the distance where she found Philip and Lisa standing on the altar with the priest standing in between as they said their vows.

She stared at her wedding dress that Lisa was putting on. She had been staring at that same dress for weeks, when the stylist from Italy brought it over she gently placed it safely and had been anticipating for this very moment.

Looking at her own sister putting on her wedding gown which fitted her perfectly made her balled her fist tightly.

She gently walked in and sat at the middle seat, not wanting to look at the smug smile on Lisa's face saying " the victory is mine "

She turned to her right and she had some ladies whispering among themselves

" isn't supposed to be Andrea's wedding. How did Lisa end up with the groom? "

" I heard it's because Andrea is an illegitimate child of the Grahams "

What people didn't know was that she had a sharp hearing. She could easily hear people whispering from a distance but at this moment she wished she never had this special gift.

Someone tapped her shoulders slightly from behind, jolting her from her sorrowful thoughts. She turned around and it was her college friend.

" Andrea what's going on? " Elena said like a whisper.

Everyone who was present here were all shocked to see Lisa and Philip on the altar instead of Andrea but no one dared let out their thoughts.

They could only gossip among themselves or rather still keep their thoughts to themselves.

After the ceremony was concluded, Andrea walked over to the both of them

" Congratulations and best wishes " she said with a smile and turned around to leave.

" Andrea!" Philip called out to her.

She slowly turned around " thanks and you too " he said.

She nodded and left the church.

That was a five year relationship down the drain. She looked up at the sky and a smile appeared on her face. She believed there's always a bright side to everything.

She arrived home and she guessed the after party wouldn't be hosted any longer at the house. She went into her room and threw herself on the bed exhaustedly. She shut her eyes to rest for a while and slowly drifted off to sleep.

By the time she opened her eyes, it was already 10pm

" Jesus Christ! " she muttered as she rose to her feet immediately.

She had just remembered she hadn't purchased the contraceptive pills. She opened her closet and brought out baggy jeans and a t-shirt. She put on a bucket hat and face mask.

She didn't want anyone to spot her at the pharmacy purchasing contraceptive pills even though she was the illegitimate daughter of the Grahams everyone still knew her and she couldn't afford to drag their name into the mud after all they were one of the largest families in Australia.

She could have ordered online but she couldn't take the risk once her step mother finds out she knew she was going to be thrown out of the house for good. Rosette has been looking for means to get rid off her and it was as if she was creating the opportunity for it to happen.

She purchased them and walked out of the pharmacy. She couldn't wait to arrive home before taking it. After consuming the drugs she heaved a sigh of relief.

She sneakily walked into the house luckily the lights were off, indicating that everyone was probably in their rooms and asleep.

She reached for the stairs and suddenly the light turned on.

Chapter 3 : I'm pregnant

Rosette smirked " Where are you coming from at this time you wretch" she asked

" It's none of your business and if you have too much free time and you don't know what to do with it I suggest you use it to teach your children some manners, " she said as her lips curled up into a smile and her hands folded to her chest.

Rosette bit her lip while glaring at her " you insolent child I will teach you some manners first " she said as she raised her hand to hit Andrea on the face.

Andrea grabbed her hand right on time and she threw it away roughly.

" You better watch it, you old hag, " Andrea said and walked upstairs.

Andrea had already promised not to take any chances with her step mom. Her mother had her when she was dating her dad and after her dad found out he dumped her mom instantly.

At the end of the day she landed with her Aunt,she heard her mom had started a new life with kids.

Her father had no responsible children; they are always in the headlines with one scandal and the other. So he requested her aunt that he wanted her but there was more to it,that was how she was known as the illegitimate daughter of the Grahams yet the responsible one.

Rosette did not only hate Andrea cause she's the other woman's daughter she was jealous cause she didn't have any child with a good reputation like the way Andrea have been carrying the family's name.

" Mom, you couldn't even fight back, you just watched her insult you, " Naomi said to her mother.

" Just shut up you good for nothing," Rosette spat back at her.

Naomi Graham is the second daughter of rosette. She was well known in all the clubs in Australia. She was the lavish spender of the family and the laziest.

" Whatever " she replied as she blew her gum and started walking to the door.

" And where are you heading to? " Rosette asked.

Naomi rolled her eyes " to the club of course "she said as she twirled the car keys on her finger.

Rosette glared at her disappointedly, she was putting on a red leather mini skirt and a matching red leather jacket with black heels.

The following morning, Andrea yawned as she climbed down off her bed to prepare herself for work.

She graduated with a first class degree in one of the top universities in America.

This was exactly the reason why Mr Graham requested for her to come back to the family. He wanted to use her to take the family's company to greater heights and secure the property for his children's future.

Andrea was no fool to fall for his tricks; she knew he didn't have any fatherly love for her or even genuinely acknowledge her as his daughter; he only cared about rosette children.

She works for a shimmer company in Australia as the general manager. Shimmer's company is one of the top companies in Australia; they were well-known for making and designing jewelries. They had a lot of branches globally.

Three months Later

She arrived at the company with muddled thoughts.

She went straight into the office ignoring the employees who were busy gossiping about her as usual.

Back in her office she opened her bag and brought the pregnancy test kit. She stared at it with a frown two days back. It was negative. Why did she suddenly feel nauseous from the smell of soup?

She took in a sharp breath and decided to test it out again.

She came out after a while with a frown on her face.

She dialled Elena's number.

" Hey girl, why did you call me during work hours? " she said.

" Elena, it's positive this time, " she said.

" huh? what are you talking about" Elena asked confusedly.

" I'm pregnant, Elena " she announced.

" what? " Elena yelled.

" Yes, this morning I was suddenly feeling nauseous from the smell of soup and I threw up. I decided to give it a try once again and it's positive,"she said.

" Look, I need to hang up right now "Andrea said.

She had told Elena everything that happened, months back when she went over to Elena's condominium. It has been three months and she hasn't gotten her monthly period.

She bowed her head on top of her desk.

Should I keep the baby?

Who's the father? Will my child grow up without a father?

A Lot of thoughts kept coming to her head and she started having migraines.

She closed from work early and returned home, immediately she got to her room and ran into the bathroom to throw up again.

She came out looking pale and weak and lay on her bed tiredly.

" If this continues then soon enough the whole family will know about her pregnancy" she mumbled.

She lowered her head and placed her hand on her tummy.

" So I'm carrying a child," she thought.

TEXAS'S, AMERICA

Sean sat down in his bedroom working overtime with his laptop.

Once in a while his hand reaches for his cup of coffee that was kept on the coffee table in front of him.

His phone abruptly started ringing and he picked up immediately.

" Sir, we have a very important client we need to meet in Australia, " Drew, his assistant, said over the phone.

His pupils dilated and he remained silent on the phone. He turned to the other end of the bed gazing at the black hoodie.

He remembered wearing this hoodie two months back when he came to Australia and he met that lady he spent the night with.

He shut his eyes trying to recall her face but her image had started fading away from his memory.

The following morning he woke up. She was holding onto him tightly and she was sleeping quite peacefully with her cherry-like small lips.

He smiled at the thought of her.

" sir " Drew said, the other end of the line had been quiet for minutes

Sean jolted back to reality. " Alright, when are we having the meeting? " he asked in a cold voice.

" in the next two days sir, " Drew replied.

" uh huh " he said and hung up the call.

He was suddenly looking forward to the trip.

The following morning, Australia

Westwell Estate

Andrea got up and went into the bathroom to brush her teeth.

Rosette came into the room to see what she was up to, but couldn't find her. She shook her head about to leave when her eyes caught sight of a pregnancy tube.

Her eyes widened as she went forward to check she picked it up and gasp from shock she was no newbie to this.

" So Andrea is pregnant " she said like a whisper as she palmed her lips.

Her lips curled up into a smirk. " Finally I will throw that scum out of the mansion, " she said and went downstairs with it.

After Andrea freshened up and was already dressed up for work she remembered she wanted to dispose the test tube.

She went to the bedside table and under the bed but couldn't find it. She frowned her face and checked everywhere possible it might have fallen to but to no avail.

She was already running late and decided to continue searching once she got back from work.

She went downstairs and she met the whole family seated at the dining table eating. She was in no mood for breakfast and decided to go straight to work.

" Andrea! " she heard her step mom call out to her with a cold voice.

She turned around slowly and the next thing she heard was " smack! smack! "

She was slapped hard twice by her step mother.

A deep frown appeared on her face as she glared at Rosette with daggers.

Before she could speak, Rosette waggled the test tube in front of her.

" Why don't you explain this?" she said with a smug smirk.

Andrea's heart sank, she gulped down her saliva nervously.

How did she get hold of it? She wondered.

" say something " her dad roared angrily as he stood up from his seat.

Soon the whole family rose to their feets.

She balled her fists beside her tightly. " yes I'm pregnant " she announced.

Naomi gasped in shock and suddenly let out a mirthless laugh.

" the almighty amazing daughter had finally brought shame to the family " she said in a delightful tone.

Grandma held her chest tightly and suddenly groaned in pain.

" grandma! Grandma! " they all rushed towards her as she collapsed on the ground.

Andrea was about to touch grandma but Naomi swung her arm away.

" Get out of here, look what you have caused. You are so cursed that's why both of your parents refused to acknowledge you " she said with a malicious tone.

Tears were welling up in Andrea's eyes. She bit her lip hard trying to hold it from sliding down.

The doctor came shortly and checked on Granny's condition.

The whole family sat down in the living room waiting for the doctor's feedback.

" If anything happens to my mother I will skin you alive " Lachlan Graham yelled at Andrea.

" How could you be so senseless? " the person she least expected said to her, finally making her tears fall.

" Jace, even you, " Andrea said with a choked voice.

Jace is Naomi's junior brother. He was just 20 years old and a college student. He had only been the one who never spoke bad about Andrea ever since she came back into the Graham's family, he even went against his parents for her.

" Andrea I thought you were a good person and my mother was only troubling you for no reason but now have got to see you for who you truly are " he said with a loud scoff.

Noami smiled and rubbed his hair. He pushed her hands roughly.

" Get your hands away from me, you bitch " he said.

After waiting for a while the doctor came downstairs.

" she almost suffered a heart attack. Your mother is so lucky but if something of this sort happens again there are high chances that she might end up paralyzed." the doctor said.

Lachlan heaved a sigh of relief as he held his chest that had been thumping wildly awhile ago. " Thank you doctor, can I go and see her now? " he asked.

" She needs enough rest. She shouldn't be stressed in any way, I will take my leave now " he said and headed out.

" You wretched, you heard what the doctor said, right? Pack your things and get out of this house right now " rosette yelled.

Andrea wept loudly; she didn't mean for all this to happen.

Lachlan turned over to her direction he said in a very icy voice " who is the father of the child? "he asked, emphasising on each word.

Even she would like to know.

She could only stare at him as she remained silent.

" speak you bastard "his voice echoed through the whole living room.

Andrea flinched by the coldness he was exuding. She's quite surprised by his reaction. It wasn't as if he did care about her. Why was he suddenly angry? " she thought.

She took in a deep breath " I also don't know" she said in a low tone as she lowered her gaze.

Naomi burst into laughter " wow Andrea I didn't know you were this wild how many men have you been intimate with so far or have you lost count " she said shamelessly.

" how will she know she's just exactly like her mom. They are all sluts, " Rosette said.

Andrea couldn't take their insults any longer.

" enough! You have been saying what you want just because I didn't say anything doesn't mean you can turn my silence into weakness. Another word from any of you again I will surely make you pay."

She suddenly tittered " oh and you think I want to live in this house with despicable horrible people like you all, then you must be kidding " she said and went upstairs.

She returned shortly with her luggage. " Have a lovely life, " she said and pulled her luggage along.

Lachlan chuckled codly " what a disgrace. Who did I offend? All my children are nothing but waste " he said angrily.

" And Andrea she dared walked out on me I will surely make her pay " Lachlan said and stomped off angrily
