Mr Billionaires Secret Baby

Chapter 39

Dante’s POV

My jaw hurt from how tightly I had clenched it and the numerous amount of times I found the need to do it all over again. It was the only way I could think to manage the anger that was flowing through my veins with each mile that my car had consumed.

Phoebe was proving to be a pain in the most unimaginable of ways possible. I knew she was stubborn and had great potential to be vicious when she did not get her way but never in a million ways did I assume that she would be this cunning.

She wanted me to marry her and I said no to which she created this entire fiasco that was driving me insane. Not only had she been on my case since this morning but so had her family. They had been involved in to the mix when Pheobe decided to attempt slitting her wrist because carrying a child out of marriage was horrifying for her.

Portia had been hysterical in the background whilst George filled me in on the incident in great detail and disapproval in his tone like this was entirely my fault and not his daughters poor judgement. I couldn’t make sense of what on earth was going on.

For a short while every thing felt as it should have been. Pheobe and I going our own ways and Sophia and I kind of getting things started again. I saw her far differently now after I knew the truth of who had saved me and what ever integrity and obligation I once felt towards Pheobe was now completely gone.

It didn’t do much for my anger that this call had interrupted my meeting with Sophia and 1 had to stand there right in front of her and she dressed herself again with out telling her any of it. The guilt was eating at me for lying to her but the second I mentioned that Pheobe was not easily moveable from my life at present, she was going to see me as the villain in her life all over again.

If that had to happen, I had a strong feeling that getting back in to her life was going to be next to impossible. I could risk losing her again over my stupidity. I had messed things up with her once and I can’t think of even doing that again.

“Dante, you haven’t looked at me once.” Pheobe said from the bed she had been resting in.

Her hand had been bandaged and she was given plenty of blood to compensate for what she had. lost in her stunt. The doctors still insisted that she stay in over night to ensure she and the baby were in the best of health given the strain of the ordeal.

I didn’t want to look at her because the mere sight of her set my already flaring anger ablaze. It didn’t help my temper that Portia and George were in the room at present and seemed to show no intention of leaving the room at all.

Portia scoffed, glaring at me temporarily as she patted Pheobe’s hair like she was a toddler.

“What else can you expect from him, dear. A man who can’t honor the mother of his child would. never be able to offer any one any sort of kindness.” Portia taunted but I clenched my fist as a way of containing my temper.
