Chapter 119

"Sorry for what exactly?"

"For destroying me, teaming up with Ryan and Ingrid to kill me, or for faking that you're the owner of Rickie's phone when you know very well that I do not want to hear from you." The anger could actually be felt in my tone.

"I apologize for letting Ryan bully me into doing what I did."

"My apology means nothing."

"I apologize sincerely, J'onn.

"I promise you that you are doing no more than just wasting your time if you believe that those tears will impress me," I responded when I heard her sniffling.

"It pains me a lot, knowing that you do not think I am genuine."

"That is what you should get for trusting some stranger more than your own son!"

"If at all he had come to you for anything, what does it take you to confirm from me?"

"He was your best friend. I trusted him as much as you trusted him. Never once did it cross my mind that he was doing something against your interest."

"The deed has been done. Frankly, I don't know why you are phoning me on the phone."

In order for you to know that I am really sorry and that I regret what I did. I do not know how but I am ready to make things right between us. I am ready to apologize for my errors. You just tell me what to do.

"Let me take a guess, Ryan and Ingrid sent you to me to spy on me. Isn't it?

"You knew that Ingrid was planning to kill Bonn, didn't you."

"Stop reminding me of these things, J'onn, they are very painful coming from you. I would never like anyone dead."

"Liar! I do not believe you. You say you would never wish harm to anyone and yet, you nearly made me lose my first child and my love of a lifetime. Did you think that I had forgotten how hard you worked to convince me that Bonn is a gold digger and Melissa is not my daughter?"

"There is nothing you can say right now that will make me believe that you are not working in coordination with those bastards! They probably sent you to me to come here and obtain information from me."

"You should understand that my mother is deceased and all respect I had for you is lost and buried long ago. And there is nothing to make me think otherwise of you."

Just be aware that your minions will be in jail very soon and if by chance you are tracked down to be their accomplice, then I'm happy to notify you in advance that you should be ready to spend the remainder of your life in jail. No one gets in the way of my woman and daughter and escapes unpunished!

"Do you think that low of me?" Now I could hear my mom sniveling but heaven knew that I did not care two fucks for her or her emotions.

"I already lost all the respect that I have for you so stop trying to impress me. It is so infuriating!"

"If you love me, then stay the hell away from me." I heard my mother crying but I wasn't touched at all.

"Cold, that was cold, J'onn!" I heard Rickie's voice ringing.

"Oh no, you apologize to me, Rickie. How am I going to trust you now? You know what kind of dilemma I am currently in and here you are, conspiring with that witch!"

"Your call, whether you want to put me on your hate list or trusted list but that doesn't mean my ending the right thing."

"The phone was on speaker but mom just figured she'd talk first. She was here when you called before too. And she was all worried so she made us call you back."

"I'm not going to get involved between you and Mom because that's your affair to settle."

"Mom messed up big time and did really badly. I made her see that. Even though I can't try to understand what is going on in her head and brain, I can assure that she feels extremely bad.". Dad guaranteed she hadn't been herself lately, probably because the guilt was finally catching up with her. But I appreciate you reminding her you'd have no issue locking her up if she interferes or meddles in your life again.

"You people are pissing me off. I shouldn't have picked this call in the first place!" I said, slamming down the receiver.

I sighed heavily, rubbing my hand on my face.

I was about to return to the ward when I remembered not to call Bonn's best friend who could be panicking.

Observing Onn via the glass door, I could see that she was still asleep and I did not want to wake her up so I messaged Bessie, requesting Tiffany's number.

I entered the ward, carefully closing the sliding door on my heels. I was exhausted in my mind so I simply decided to sleep. I went over to where Bonn was, kissed her forehead, then went over to the couch and settled down in very comfortable fashion.

I was about to close my eyes when my phone rang. Bessie had given me Tiffany's contact so I immediately texted her introducing myself and apologizing for missing her dinner party with Bonn as something came up.

I do not know how long I slept but I woke up tired and wished that I had more time to sleep. Struggling to open my eyes slowly, I saw that Bonn was already up and a female doctor was attending to her.

I facepalmed in my mind knowing that Bonn must have opened the door herself earlier this morning.

I greeted the couple then excused myself to the toilet where I washed my mouth afterwards then splashed some water on my face and dried them. I went back to the ward.

"Good morning, baby." Ignoring that the doctor was still with us, I approached Bonn and kissed her lips.

"Good morning." She smiled, trying to hide her blush.

"Did you clean up?" I inquired.

"Yeah, a nurse came through earlier and cleaned me up."

"You should've awakened me."

"I couldn't. You looked even more exhausted sleeping. No need to feel bad. I wanted you to sleep even more."

"I'm not complaining. You are welcome to awaken me for anything, okay?"

She smiled, nodding.

"How do you feel?"

"Still sore but better than yesterday."

I glanced over at the Doctor who was wearing a beautiful smile on her face, she was amazed at the lovebirds before her.

"How's she doing, Doc?"

"She's doing well. Let's see how she'll do today and then we will know when we are going to release her."

I nodded.

Now that your husband is conscious, ma'am, would you prefer that we try the ultrasound now before breakfast?" The Doctor asked.

I loved how almost everyone got us mixed up as a couple who were official and God gazed into my heart and was aware that I couldn't wait for us to be official as well. I knew I had to get that done very soon.

Bonn looked at me. "We want to go visit the baby and I told her we would do that when you were awake. I want you to meet your little one. You missed the first one and I didn't want you to miss this one."

I smiled, on the verge of tears with so much pride. "Sure!"

"Alright then, let's go and see your precious one."

Rather than riding in the wheelchair, Onn offered to walk.

With our hands clasped together with each other, we exited the ward, following behind the Doctor's name of Naomi. She was gracious enough to walk slowly because she knew Bonn was not yet ready to walk that fast.

We entered the ultrasound room where an ob-gyn was already waiting. I assisted Bonn in changing and before she knew it, she was on the bed and the ob-gyn started rubbing some gel on her belly.

She clutched tighter the hand that was entwined with hers, laughing. "I forgot how cold this can be."

I grinned at her again, "Sorry, my love." Having been the first time I was introduced to something like this, I thought it was rather amusing to see what was going on in the ultrasound room.

Dr. Naomi stayed a couple of steps away as she allowed the ob-gyn to do her job. After she put the wand against Bonn's stomach, a picture showed up on the screen. "So that's your bab." The ob-gyn was saying and then caught herself off.

Seeing that something was wrong, but not wanting to intrude, Dr. Naomi went over and started speaking with the woman ob-gyn, pointing towards the screen.

Bonn naturally felt tears welling up in her eyes as I had a worried look on my face.
