A Stolen Kiss From THE CEO! - Chapter 250

250 Get Ready!

“Please, madam Denise, you need to leave now! This scene is unnecessary! Madam Ella won’t be seeing anyone today.” Paul pleaded while gesturing for Denise to follow him downstairs.

“Mr. Paul or whatever you call yourself…” Denise’s eyes darkened and her tone turned raspy and terrifying. “… if you do not point Ella’s bedroom to me right now, I will be forced to rip out your jugular and shove it up your ass!”

“Pardon me!” Paul’s eyes widened at Denise’s choice of words. However, he was unprepared to face her wrath as he pointed towards Ella’s bedroom with a trembling finger.

“You just got lucky! Next time you test my patience, I’ll make sure to tattoo my name on your forehead!” Denise hissed and stormed out of his presence.

“Oh God, what have I done wrong to warrant all this anger and hatred towards me?” Paul lamented as he watched Denise disappear into Ella’s matrimonial bedroom, like a tigress running to protect her cubs.

“Why has this peaceful and once loving home turned poisonous and chaotic overnight? What evil have I committed that everyone keeps threatening my life?” Paul wiped the cold sweat that had beaded his forehead with his quivering right hand.

“First, the boss shredded me earlier this morning like pieces of used toilet paper. Then he comes back home and thunders a thousand instructions to me, with a threatening clause in each of the instructions. As if my day couldn’t get worse than this, madam Denise brings home her troubles with terrorizing statement. Come to think of it was she really going to rip out my jugular and stuff it in my…”

Paul touched his throat and his butt to check if they were intact and laughed feverishly at his sudden hysteria.

Ella was just stepping out of the bathroom dressed in a bathrobe when Denise barged into the room and shut the door behind her.

“Oh, Denise!” Ella broke down in tears again as she ran towards her for a warm embrace.

“Shhhh! Calm down, dear! Mama bear is here for you!”

Denise gently stroked Ella’s wet hair and led her to the bed to sit down.

“Stop crying, my sweetheart! You know it’s not good for the baby!”

Ella nodded her head as Denise wiped her eyes dry and kissed her on her forehead like a loving mother.

Thanks to Denise’s cuddles and pampering, Ella slept off in no time out of weariness. By the time she woke up, it was already evening.

She rubbed her eyes and held her drumming forehead.

“Denise!” She called weakly while scanning the room for any sign of her.

Just then, her bedroom door opened. Denise and Dr. Julie both walked into the room, smiling.

“Dr. Julie! What are you doing here? I wasn’t expecting you!” Ella looked at her quizzically.

Painfully, every expression displayed by Ella made her head ache terribly. She kept wincing in pain as she tried to talk or smile or even laugh.

“Your mummy of a friend invited me over.” Dr. Julie smiled. “Didn’t you promise me that you would not cry again?” She frowned as she took Ella’s body vitals and discovered a few abnormalities.

“I’m sorry!” Ella sighed.

“No…no…no…no sighing, frowning, or crying on my watch!” Denise walked over to the other side of the bed and sat down beside Ella.

“Oh, Denise! Thank you so much for always being there for me when I need you!” Ella hugged her.

“Anything for you, sweetie pie!” Denise beamed.

“Ella, I want you to relax!”

Dr. Julie and Denise both assisted Ella to sit in a relaxed position.

“I’m going to give you some medication by injecting it into your system for a quicker effect. The headache will stop in a few minutes and you’ll be good as new before tomorrow morning.”

Dr. Julie opened her drug bag and got busy attending to Ella.

“Denise, have you seen Leon?” Ella asked weakly.

“Let’s not talk about Leon now!” Denise said in a calm voice. Let’s focus on your health and that of the baby first. You both are of utmost importance now. We will talk about Leon subsequently when you are feeling much better. Okay?” She gently stroked Ella’s hair.

“Okay!” Ella smiled.

Just then a gentle tap on the door interrupted them.

“Come in!” Denise said in a slightly raised but excited voice.

Paul and some female chefs trooped into Ella’s room holding different trays of appetizing meals.

“Just in time!” Denise smiled and stood up to help out with organizing where the food was to be placed.

“Paul, you made this arrangement!” Ella’s eyes showed in bewilderment and excitement as hungry pangs jabbed at every side of her stomach.

“No, madam Ella!” Paul beamed. “It was all madam Denise’s handiwork. She was the brain behind it all.”

“Aww… that’s my sweetest mama bear!” Ella’s eyes glimmered in excitement.

“Oh, Paul, you flatter me!” Denise smiled.

“You know… Denise turned in Ella’s direction while maintaining her heavenly smile. “…Paul and I got off on the wrong foot when I first arrived this afternoon. But, after I made him understand that no one messes with mama bear, he had no option than to dance to my tune.”

“Is that so, Paul?” Ella couldn’t help herself from chuckling. “Didn’t you get the memo that no one messes with my one and only mama bear?”

“Yes, ma’am! I have learned my lesson the hard way! I will always give madam Denise the honor she deserves.” Paul politely bowed and left the room with his entourage, smiling.

Ella stuck her nose in the air and started sniffing the sweet aroma coming from the different cuisines on the table.

“Yum! Can I eat already? I’m so hungry!” Ella pouted animatedly at doctor Julie, who was reading her blood pressure using the blood pressure device.

“Definitely!”

Dr. Julie quickly rounded up what she was doing and released Ella’s arm.

“You know that I can’t eat all this…” Ella gestured at the food before her while munching on some fries and chicken. “…by myself. You two will have to join me in the fun.”

“Ugh! Thanks, Ella!” Dr. Julie beamed. “As much as I would love to join the party, I have to leave now as it’s getting late. My children would worry sick if I don’t return home before 7:00 PM.”

“What about you Denise?” Ella frowned. “Are you going to leave me too?”

“No darling, I’m spending the night here with you, because tomorrow morning I’m taking you to work. It’s time to make your pregnancy official. So, get ready because girl, you’re going to slay with it.” Denise’s eyes sparkled with enthusiasm.
