I WANT THEM BACK BxB MPreg

Isabella’s p.o.v

I stared at myself in the mirror, loving the way the maroon-colored dress accentuated my figure. Today was I and Liam’s second wedding anniversary and his grandfather had organized a big party.

A sigh escaped my lips and my heart became heavy as I remembered the look of anger that crossed Liam’s face when his grandfather mentioned the party.

Ever since his parents died, he changed the way he acted towards me. It was like the love he had for me had vanished completely.

A lone tear escaped my eyes and I wiped it off hastily, in a bid not to ruin my makeup.

A knock jolted me out of my thoughts and my friends, Bianca and Ava sauntered in with a bright smile on their faces.

“Congratulations on your anniversary darling. Your grandfather-in-law sure does know how to throw a party,” Ava squealed, pulling me into a hug.

I chuckled, patting her back lightly. “He’s still a party freak despite his age.”

“You are one lucky woman, Isa. Not only did you marry one of the best men out there, but you also got one of the best in-laws. I wish my life was more like yours,” Bianca chimed in, pouting.

I shook my head at her words. “Don’t say that Bianca. Peter is a very nice man.”

She scoffed, folding her arms under her breast. “You can have him then since you think he’s so nice.”

I rolled my eyes and made my way to my dressing table to pick up my purse.

“Now ladies, let’s head downstairs.”

As I got to the end of the stairs, Cynthia, the wife of Christian, the CEO of the Miller group of companies sauntered towards me, tucking a few strands of hair that fell out of place behind her ear.

Her eyes fell on my fingers and she let out a gasp, her hands flying over her mouth as she approached me. Pointing to my diamond ring, she shook her head and let out a soft chuckle. “I didn’t know Isabella to be one who wears cheap things. Are you already going broke?”

I rolled my eyes in anger. Cynthia has always been in an imaginary competition with me. She was someone who always wanted to be in the spotlight but not tonight, I won’t let her have her way this time.

A wry chuckle escaped my lips as I closed the distance between us. “My ring costs a fortune Cynthia and I’m sure it cost more than all your pieces of jewelry combined together. It isn’t about how fancy it looks dear Cynthia,” I whispered into her ears and watched as her face contorted into a frown.

Before she could argue, I patted her on the back and left her side.

My eyes darted through the hall frantically searching for Liam as I fiddled with my fingers anxiously.

I felt a tap on my back and turned my head to see who it was.

“Who are you searching for so intently? Is something wrong?” Bianca said with a sly smile on her lips.

I tried to speak but a thick lump formed in my throat and all I could do was shake my head.

Different thoughts raced through my mind causing my heart to palpitate in fear. “I was sure that I reminded him of the anniversary yesterday. How could he not be here? I never complained when he forgot my birthday and other events in my life but this, this is too much. God! What do I do now?

How did things go from bad to worst between us in a span of a few months?

Ava reached out and took hold of my arm. “Isa, are you okay? You are shaking.”

I took deep breaths trying to control my emotions. “I’m… I’m fine,” I managed to voice out.

My eyes fell on the glass of wine in Ava’s hand and I snatched it from her, gulping it at a go.

Wiping the corners of my lips, I handed her back the glass. “Excuse me, girls. I need to make a phone call.”
