My handsome Stranger

Back to the start

Lisa's pov
It's been a year since I left. I'm already 8 months pregnant.

I think it's time to go back.

"Ready to go back Lisa?" Carlos asked me.

I nod and smile.

He hasn't tried to reach me or anything..I should forget him already

"Mommy!! I wanna see daddy.." Miguel says with tears.

"You will see Daddy okay? Let's go." I say with a smile and pick him up.

Flight back

Finally back...

"You should go see your mother and stay there. You are 8 months pregnant.." Carlos said worriedly.

"The doctor said I'm fine. I can work. I just have to take it slow.." I say with an attitude.

"Fine. But I'm coming with you. I don't want him to do you any harm." He says worriedly.

I nod and smile.

I give Miguel to my mom and head to work.

We make it to the building and go in.

"You're finally back Lisa!!" The receptionist said happily.

I smile.

Feels nice to be back..

I open the door to his office and what I see makes my heart ache.

"Baby I missed you..." Jasmine says kissing him. He doesn't resist but doesn't kiss her back.

Why am I still not over him..! Just pretend..

I stay unfazed.

"Like we expected anything different." Carlos says sarcastically.

He breaks the kiss and looks at me with passionate eyes.

Not this time Johnny.

"Are you guys finally together!?! Omg baby look! They are expecting a baby.." she says smirking.

His faces changes to a mixture of anger and sadness.

Don't get fooled by it..

"I'm just coming back to work." I say coldly.

He just nods and let's her sit in his lap.

The audacity!! Just ignore him Lisa..

I make it seem like I'm unfazed and I hear him sigh.

"Hey Carlos could you get me ice cream and cake.? I'm craving it.." I say apologetically.

He smiles and nods.

"Thank you." I say with a smile.

I get a call.

"Hello? Oh honey how are you? I know don't cry baby..I'll be there in a bit okay? Yesss I'll bring you a brand new toy okay my baby boy? Behave for Grandma okay? Good. Luv u bye" I hang up.

I see him smile at the corner of my eye but I ignore it.

Don't even think your going to see him again..

"I'm going to get coffee I'll be back." He says without looking at me.

I just nod.

"Well well well...did you come back to try and steal MY husband?" She says with a grin.

Ooh she is trying to play with fire..

I record the conversation.

"I'm just here to work. Leave me alone. I have a baby on the way. I don't need your negative energy around me." I say coldly.

"As long as you don't try to steal MY husband. Embarrassing." She says rolling her eyes.

"I'm not the one needing Mommy and Daddy's money to do anything." I say laughing.

She gets upset.

"And? At least I have the man you loved. I can have him all to myself. Something you couldn't do." She scoffs.

I roll my eyes.

"You mean his money?" I ask grinning.

"And? Who will believe your story? No one. You shouldn't have heard that conversation. And don't even try to look for him." She says angrily.

"Why? Because I know his name?" I laugh.

"Don't you dare..!" She says angrily and raises her hand.

Before I can even defend myself, she gets pushed.

"She is pregnant! Don't you dare hit her!" Says Carlos running to me.

"Ugh!" She gets up and leaves.

"You okay?" He asks worriedly.

I nod and give him the recorded messages.

"What a sneaky witch." he says angrily.

Johnny comes back.

Carlos is about to tackle him but I stop him.

"It's okay..don't worry about it." I say warmly.

He nods and relaxes.

I see Johnny glare at Carlos and he grins back at him.

Uh oh better get him out of here.

"Here you go baby. Your favorite ice cream and cake." He says and gives me a kiss on the cheek.

Weeks pass

"Carlos I want Chinese rice with chicken wings please..I'm craving it so badly." I say apologetically.

"I'll do it." Johnny says.

I shake my head.

"I'm your boss. You listen to me and that's final." He says angrily and I just nod.

20 minutes pass and he comes back to the office.

"Here you go.." he says shyly.

You're not getting me this time..

"C-Can I hear the baby.." he says shyly.

I roll my eyes.

"Fine." I say coldly.

He feels the baby kick and starts to tear up.

"Is he mine?" He asks with a hopeful expression.

I shake my head.

It's best this way..

His face saddens and goes back to work.

"It doesn't matter if it isn't mine...I'll get you to love me again.." he says with a fake smile.

We are back at the start..this won't end well..
