Chasing After My Wife - Chapter 553

Speaking of baby, Jillyanna was bored to death and she wanted to do something fun. She didn’t tell anyone what she had in mind and she was hoping her plan would succeed.

Seeing everyone was happily chatting, giving gifts to the engaged couple, and taking pictures; Jillyanna pressed her temple and acted dizzy.

“Mommy, are you okay?” Jade asked in worry when she saw her mother was frowning and looked a little pale. She didn’t know that her mother had a concealer in her small pouch.

Travis was slightly alert as well. “Hon, are you alright?”

“Yeah, I’m fine. Just a little dizzy. Maybe from the drinks.”

Travis raised his eyebrow when he looked at her wine glass. She did take a sip but there’s no way that would make her drunk. Nonetheless, he was still worried for her. “Do you want to take a rest? You’ve been out here since morning. I’m sure they’ll understand.”

“Alright. I’ll go ask them.” Jillyanna rose to her feet but she sat back again.

“I’ll go. Just stay here.” He called Hawk to come over and told him about what’s happening. Knowing that Jillyanna had been helping them since morning, he didn’t mind them leaving to rest ahead of time.

Jade was worried for her mother so she came with them, back to their hotel room. Top carried her on his arms to make sure that she won’t trip and fall. Jackie was carrying baby Raizel while Travis carried his wife. He wouldn’t let anyone touch her at all. Jillyanna felt a little guilty with her acting and she wanted to stop already but she wanted to test something as well.

Riley was left a little confused. Her sister asked her earlier to film her and her family. She didn’t know what happened but Jillyanna reminded Riley not to stop filming until they leave the place. Seeing them goo, she stopped filming and saved the video. ‘What exactly is going on with my sister?’ she asked herself in worry but since they weren’t making any fuss, she didn’t worry about it so much.

Travis placed Jillyanna on their bed and helped her remove her shoes. Jade went to the bathroom and wetted a face towel to wipe her mother’s face. Jackie placed her nephew on the crib and gave him some toys to play.

“I’m fine. Don’t worry about me.” Jillyanna insisted but her husband and daughter wouldn’t stop caring for her. “I’m fine. Really.”

“Sure?” Travis questioned.”

“Yes, Mr. Madrigal.” Jillyanna responded. “Just let me rest for a while.”

“Okay. I’ll have the baby sleep, too.” Travis took care of the children while she was resting. Her guilt was eating her but she was enjoying what she did. She can only pray that he won’t throw her out of the house later on.

This acting continued for several days even after coming home. Travis went to work and he would always call her to ask how she was doing. Of course, she told him she was fine but Jade was different. She told her father that her mother had been vomiting several times in a day.

Until one time, Jade found something from the internet. She had been researching what causes vomiting and there were so many things that could possibly cause it. However, something in the information looked plausible – pregnancy. Everything was just coincidental. Jillyanna placed the positive pregnancy test result on top of her drawer to let her husband see it upon coming home. However, Jade came inside and saw it first before her dad. She didn’t know what a real test result looked like. Jillyanna cut the date of the result because it was the result she got during her pregnancy with Raizel. Thinking it was real, Jade called her father and told him what she found.

Travis was having a meeting and hearing the news from his daughter, his heart lurched and fear was trying to consume him again. ‘She can’t be pregnant!’ Travis thought to himself. It’s not because he didn’t want to have another child but the fear of losing Jillyanna in exchange of their baby’s life was still lingering in his heart. It was the scariest thing for him.

“Excuse me but I will have to leave for a while. I’ll leave Shein to attend this meeting in my behalf.”

Everyone looked at him with worry. He would only look like that whenever his wife gets involved into something dangerous and now, it happened again. They didn’t really have any problem with Shein but they also wanted their boss to be alright.

Travis came home as soon as he can and he found his wife sleeping on their son’s bed. Her body was curled and Jade was sitting on her side. Their son was also sleeping on his crib. Jade handed him the paper that she found and looked at his reaction. “Is that real?” Jade asked. She knew how risky her mother’s pregnancy was and her father would never want it to happen again.

Travis covered his face with the papers and looked at his wife. His throat constricted and he was about to cry from anxiety. He had no idea what to do. He was so lost.

Jillyanna heard her daughter talk and she immediately know that her husband was there. “What are you guys doing?” She asked upon opening her eyes.

“Is this true?” Travis asked her, pointing his finger at the result he was holding on his hands.

“What’s real?” Jillyanna questioned and took the papers from him. “Huh? Isn’t this my pregnancy result of Raizel? Why do you have it?”

“Oh, god! I thought I was gonna die from fear!” Travis hugged her tight and kissed her head again and again. She wanted to tell him that it was a prank but she couldn’t say a word. She was worried. Travis noticed something in the corner of his eyes and when he looked at it carefully, he found that it was her camera. “Where you filming this event the whole time?”

“What are you talking about?” She deadpanned and played dumb.

Travis pinched her face and kissed the tip of her nose. “You, cheeky brat! Were you playing a prank on me?”

“I wasn’t.”

“You dare deny it?” he looked towards her daughter and grinned. “Were you playing along with your mother?”

“No! I promise, dad. I had no idea what Mommy was planning.”

“Sure?”

“100% sure. Cross my heart.”

“What should we do with Mommy, then? She made us worry for her.”

“Sorry. I’m sorry.” Jillyanna uttered even though they didn’t do anything yet. After few minutes, her husband and daughter tickled her and she couldn’t stop herself from giggling. She squirmed in their hands and she tried to stop them but they were having fun tickling her. “Stop! Stop! I promise I won’t do it again. I promise. I promise.”

Jade stopped and looked at her parents. “I wish for us to stay like this.” She mumbled.

Travis and Jillyanna stopped moving as well. They looked at their daughter and smiled. Travis pulled his wife and daughter into a warm embrace. “We will always be happy like this. No matter what happens, I will always protect you three. I will always do my best to provide for the family and keep all of you safe.” Travis mumbled and kissed the two women in his life.

At this point, baby Raizel cried in his crib which made everyone laugh. “Someone’s jealous.” Jade chuckled while her father took the baby from the crib.

“You are included in this happiness, little guy. We are a package.” Travis commented and brought him to Jillyanna. The happy family of four had their fun and their promises of happiness inside their home sweet home. “My home is wherever you are and the children.” Travis added. This time, he no longer forget the children.
