《The Billionaire’s Kept Woman》The Billionaire's Kept Woman
Advertisement
It was like four weeks now since their last barbecue dinner with the family. Keira has been busy with all of the events. This time, the launching of Vincent's album, the new shining star of the Golden Age. Plus, the new release of the sports project of Alessandro. They set up a workout plan for the actors and actresses to give them enough exposure. Plus, the journey to the body-building contest.
At the moment, they are filming on the 26th floor of the Golden Age Building as the stars are having their interview about their journey to weight loss. Johanna was the one facilitating it. She only visits from time to time since Keira has to stay in her office to work on the piles of paper.
"Would you like some, Secretary Jo?" One of the staff extended the new smoothie product and seeing the green color made her nauseous. She shook her head and looked away. She pursed her lips to avoid vomiting. But she quickly held her mouth as she quickly went to the bathroom. She reached the toilet bowl to vomit the water that she drank a while ago.
She sighed and quickly went to the sink and washed her mouth. She stopped and stared at herself in the mirror. She pulled out towel tissue and wiped her face then she checked the calendar and frowned. She didn't have her period last month and this month.
"Fuck."
Her phone started ringing and she stared at Connor's number. She hung up and fixed herself. Then, she went back to the set and told the people who are in charge to go on with it. She left the building and went to the pharmacy to buy the test kit. Then, she went back to the building to her office. Connor quickly turned to her.
"Babe, you alright?" He asked.
"Yeah," She mumbled and went directly to the bathroom.
"What do you want to eat?" He asked quickly.
They haven't had sex for four weeks now after what happened. He stayed sleeping at a distance from her and only held her hand.
He went back to work when Johanna didn't answer and checked a few things. Then, he finally stood and went to Keira's office to check on her. Currently, MJ resigned from work to work with her husband in the background.
Keira was busy scribbling on the papers, closing the folder, and putting it on the other side.

"Boss, what do you want for lunch?" Connor asked. "And Jo doesn't seem to be feeling well."
"Why?" She asked and Connor shrugged at her.
Keira signed the last paper and put it on the other side. Then, she stood and stretched a little. He followed Connor to Vanessa's table as they set up the food that they wanted to eat. Usually, they order their food in the Asian Season Restaurant. So, they decided that they should order in the same restaurant. Then, Johanna approached them in poker face.
"What do you want to eat, babe?" Connor asked and Johanna was quiet for a little while.
"I'll only have rice and fish. Any fish."
"Okay." Connor nodded.
"Let's go to the set," Keira told Johanna as Johanna nodded and Vanessa picked up a few things to follow them.
Keira checked the monitor where they are airing for the advertisement of the new product of De Alegre's product. Keira was taking the same tea and smoothies as she also followed him with the workout and stuff. She was pleased with the actors and actresses and of course, these specific actors and actresses don't have scripts and they are only telling their reviews about their weight loss journey.
She noticed that Johanna looked pale and she thought that maybe she's hungry. Johanna only focused on the monitor as they noticed a few things. Keira was a perfectionist and she discussed it further with other people. She didn't want to make Johanna's paleness cause her something more.
"Let's go back," Keira said.
"Miss Jo," Vanessa called.
However they know that Johanna isn't feeling well, so Keira grabbed her arm but Johanna already saw everything dark and nearly fell on the floor. She did her best to hold her so she won't hit the ground. Even Vanessa held Johanna's arm and two of their bodyguards quickly reached them. Even though everything around her was dark, she still forced herself to get up and opened her eyes.
"Jo, relax," Keira said softly. "I got you. Relax now. Don't force yourself."
Johanna stared at Keira and although it was dark around her, she got to see Keira. She wanted to make sure that she's safe.
"I'm fine…" She mumbled as she stood straight and held on to Keira.
"You are not fine. Let's go directly to the clinic." Keira said as she told them to go on.

Johanna felt the bed as she held Keira's hand tightly and closed her eyes.
"Don't leave."
"I won't. I'll be here." Keira said softly. The doctor quickly checked on her pulse as she was slowly passing out.
After what seemed seconds, the doctor gave her something to sniff on so her dizziness would go away.
"Well, I heard a different heartbeat. It's strong." The doctor smiled. "I'll give you a pregnancy test~~"
"You don't have to." Johanna sat up.
"Miss Jo," The female doctor sighed. "We have to know~~" "
Johanna slipped off from the bed and reached for her shoes. Keira quickly helped her with the shoes.
"Are you sure?" Keira asked. Johanna nodded. "Thank you, Doc." Keira smiled tightly and helped Johanna back to the office. Connor quickly approached them and reached Johanna.
"What happened?" Connor asked but Johanna didn't answer.
Johanna sat on the long sofa as Keira quickly fetched her warm water. Connor got on one knee in front of her as he reached her hand and squeezed it gently.
"How do you feel?" He asked softly.
"I'm fine." She answered again. Keira approached them with warm water as Johanna sipped on it. "I'm just tired."
"Okay." Connor nodded and stared at her pale face for a long time. "Do you want porridge? Or can you still eat your lunch?"
"Yeah, I'll eat a little later." She mumbled.
Connor sat beside her and kissed her temple.
"I'll take care of her," Keira said softly as Connor nodded.
The time that Connor left the office, she sat down beside Johanna and sighed. There's a long silence between them and Johanna already guessed what she would ask. Keira kept silent and so, Johanna reached her hand.
"I'm pregnant." She whispered however, she already felt goosebumps and a man was staring at them. Probably in the walk-in closet. It's too late now. She said it.
"That's wonderful," Keira said and hugged her. "I and my hubby were also planning for babies next year. Our babies will be playmates."
Johanna wasn't happy to hear about it but she only smiled at Keira and hugged her. She knew that Keira would love the idea but not the other one. Keira kissed her forehead.
"Tell Connor what you like to eat for your cravings."
"I will." She nodded at her. Keira stood and patted her head. "I'll check on the foods and make sure that they are delicious for you." She left the office and she heard the door open. Quick footsteps approached her from behind and hugged her neck.
"So, you are pregnant?" His cold voice sent shivers through her spine but she could control herself. "I should congratulate you. But I thought we already talked about this?"
A month ago, Harvey warned her not to get pregnant and mentioned that it would get in the way of their mission.
"Ask for a month of leave. Go to Paris or I don't know… somewhere easy to have an abortion." He patted her head gently. "If you didn't do it… you might get killed… get your baby killed as you did to your parents… and you might put Keira in more danger."
Her heart clenches from those harsh words. Harvey mentioned her real parents and so, she trusts him. She knew that she's the reason why they left her. Even her adoptive parents. She doesn't want anyone to leave here ever again. She doesn't want to be alone. Although her second adoptive father sent her to the USA, he always visits her or Karmina and Keira. They always call her to check up on her. She doesn't feel so alone most of the time and Harvey will take them away again from her.
She sobbed and held it after. He hushed her softly and wiped her tears on her cheeks.
"You know what to do. Okay?" Harvey kissed her temple as he went to the walk-in closet and closed it slowly.
She quickly wiped her tears, cleared her throat to compose herself although she was shattering inside. She heard the door open and Keira laughed about some jokes. She turned to Keira and approached her.
"Foods are here. Let's eat so you can nap later?"
Johanna nodded and stood. She went to her office where Connor set up the table of foods for them. Keira smiled at her and left them so they would have time to talk about her pregnancy but it seemed like Keira would be disappointed after she left Johanna's office. She knew the look on Johanna's face. She wasn't pleased to be pregnant.
