Billionaire’s Ex-Wife And His Hidden Babies

Third Person’s POV

.

“Is everything fine, doctor?” Sophia asked even though that nurse had given her a slight idea that everything wasn’t fine.

“No.”, He said bluntly and looked at Bruce. “You are?”

“I’m Brandon’s best friend, Bruce Collin.”

“Best friend? So, I believe, unlike his Ex-wife, you would know that he was on a suicide mission?”

“Yes, doctor.”

“Since when has he been drinking?”

“The night since his Ex-wife left him, in short, approx, four and half years OR around it. I don’t remember the exact tell the date.”, Bruce replied, and Sophia looked at him in shock. And then Eden, who nodded her head, silently telling her that ‘she would sense truth from his mouth.’

“Oh! Interesting. It seems like he loved his Ex-wife ….”, The doctor looked at Sophia before continuing. “… a lot. Please don’t mind me asking, but he loved her so much; then why didn’t they patch up or even let her go in the first place?”

“He let her go, but he was an idiot, and they never patched up because, until the 1st of January, i. e., the day before yesterday, he used to think that his ex-wife killed herself by drowning in the river. Since this news was from one of the trusted resources, he believed it. That’s why he was living all these lives in regret and …..”

“Tried to kill himself multiple, didn’t he?”, The doctor asked, but Bruce didn’t answer him. “Well, you don’t need to answer that question. I have already seen multiple scars of injuries.”, he answered on his own. At the same time, everything was too much for Sophia. All these years, she blamed him for Caroline’s death, but today she came to know she wasn’t the only one who was blaming him. He, too, was doing the same and to the extent that he tried to kill him not once but multiple times.

‘Did we mean that much in his life?’, She thought.

“Anyways, if you want, you can congratulate your friend, and now he is successful in his plan. His both kidneys have been failed.”

“WHAT?” Sophia screamed in horror. This was the worst than that nurse had told her.

“Yes, Ms. Weasley. As for now, we can do a small surgery for that he could have regular dialysis but let me warn you that the chance of cardiac death is very high in patients undergoing dialysis. There is an option for a kidney transplant as well but seeing his drinking habits, I doubt that he could survive for long even after a kidney transplant because his kidney would fail again.”, He said bluntly without any remorse, but then the doctors had to keep their emotions away from the patients and patient’s family because they would suffer the most in case of death of their patients.

“Who the hell are you to say assume that kidney transplant procedure won’t work on him? What do you think of yourself? A God?” Sophia screamed, slamming her hand on this desk and standing up on her feet.

Eden knew that after screaming, she would start crying.

“You are not GOD for your kind information. So, better stop your nonsense theory with you. Did you get that clear?”

“Sophia…” Eden tried to calm her down.

“What, Sophia, huh?” Sophia asked Eden this time. “He should focus on finding a donor for Brandon instead of saying that the kidney transplant thing is not for Brandon. I thought he was a Nephrologist, but no, he started giving the lecture like an astrologer. Nothing will happen to Brandon. Nothing.”, She yelled for the last time before dashing out of the cabin. Eden, too glared at the doctor before following Sophia.

“I’m sorry, doctor, she…” Bruce started speaking but was cut off in between.

“It’s fine. I did that on purpose.”, The doctor said with a smiling face. “Congratulation, your friend’s Ex-wife still loves your friend.” he paused before continuing, “And congratulation again because nothing is going to happen to your friend anytime soon.”

“But you just said that….”

“Don’t focus on my words. Did you see the determination in her eyes? I doubt that she will even let your friend anywhere Alcohol.”

“But it looks like you didn’t hear me properly; they are no more together.”

“But you also mentioned that your friend never got a chance to patch up with his EX-wife because he thought that she was dead, which she is not.”, The doctor pointed out. “See, I’m just a doctor. I can prescribe medicine and perform the operation, but there are a few other things that are dependent on patients or people around them, like taking precautions, following the diet, positive vibes, support, love, and care. The rest of the things are handled by GOD, and just like Ms. Weasley said, I’m no GOD.”

Bruce chuckled, nodding his head, “It seems like you’re kind of interested in love stories.”

“Yeah! Because I had repeated a similar mistake just like your best friend, but thankfully, years later, things worked out between my ex-wife and me, and we again came closer because of our child. I won’t say everyone deserves a second chance, but something second chance is worth it because the person who caused you the extreme pain can only heal it.”

********

Sophia was filled with so many things that she felt like she would bust like a balloon if her emotions wouldn’t come out, and she knew that she couldn’t do that in front of kids or in the hospital, and Eden could sense that that was why she didn’t want to leave Sophia alone!

Eden could smell her emotions, and she was filled with regret and guilt.

“I’m driving the car,” Eden said when Sophia looked at her after reaching their car. Sophia didn’t agree with that. Eden unlocked the car, and then they both settled inside it.

“To where?”

“You’re not planning to jump in the river again, are you?” Eden asked, recalling the previous incident.

“I have a responsibility of my babies on my shoulder, and you’re thinking that I will think of suicide?”, She snapped.

“Sorry! My bad.”, Eden apologized, knowing that she should just keep quiet and wait till Sophia would finally calm down. After reaching the bridge, Sophia stared at the water under it for a while and grabbed the cemented railing before screaming as loud as she could and started crying.

‘I was enjoying my time with my babies and building my career, but not once did I check on him. Why? Why didn’t I?’

Sophia screamed again.

‘How could I blame him for Caroline’s death when he had no idea what was coming next? Just because she wasn’t his blood? But a part of me always knew that he loved her as his own.’

Sophia screamed again.

‘How could I be so selfish not to share the news of my pregnancy with him when I knew that we both had lost the light of our life? And just like mine, his life too had gotten filled with darkness, but I kept the new hope, new light of OUR life to myself.’

Sophia screamed again

‘Why the hell I did even listen to his nonsense that night. Why did I leave the house? Why didn’t I fight back when I knew that his actions were far opposite to his words. Why? Why? Why?’

Sophia screamed again and again and again until she finally collapsed on the ground and started crying bitterly.

Eden let her cry because she knew that all these emotions needed to be out. Because once Sophia’s eyes would get clean from those tears, she could see the things clearly.
