Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE!

Chapter 11

A token of one-sided love

VICTORIA POV

"So? You have made the final decision?" Antonio asked, sipping his morning coffee.

I chewed the sausage in my mouth and gulped it before answering him.

"Yes, I have decided,"I said, sighing and caressing my belly.

"I don’t want my child to grow up in a toxic place like Devonte’s mansion, nor want this innocent child to face that same cruel fate as mine like… before."

A heavy lump in my throat turned into a drastic sound of anger and emotional damage.I felt a light touch in my hand, and when I looked up, I met deep blue worried eyes, recalling me of our father.I shook my head, smiling sadly.

"Don’t worry; I have learned to accept the truth, Ant.Those three years in that family grew me up and taught me self-love and respect, which I did not care about before," I said as I held his hand in assurance before caressing my belly once again.

"This child right here will grow up with a confident and loving mother.I promise..."

I gulped the heavy lump away.

"No more weak and emotional fool, mother."

Antonio nodded his head.

"You sure want to hide the baby from Alessandro?" He asked.

I nodded firmly.

"Yes, I am expecting the lawyer to ask the question related to the baby, and I know what to answer.If the baby is born after our divorce and as much I have learned about him, he will believe it’s not his, and I am adamant about keeping that info to myself.I hope you are by my side Ant?"

Antonio nodded.

"I am beside you always, doll.We will raise this child together.I will try my best to become an amazing uncle for this little one."

He smiled, which was a wave of freshness to me.Soon, I reached the Government office.

Even though Antonio wanted to drop me off, I denied it because after last night, lots of eyes were on me, and I didn’t want any crazy rumors to start about us today.I waited in the office lobby for Alessandro.I kept waiting and watching my wristwatch.I swear this is hella irritating.

He is always on time and even insulted me a few times for being late.I just don’t understand why he can not appear today!? Finally, at ten-thirty, he decided to arrive.

Folding my arms above my chest, I kept staring in his direction.

However, he didn’t seem to notice my annoyance at all, or he did not care.

He looked as handsome as a living being could and made his appearance in a lavish style.
