Mr Ceo's Pregnant Ex-wife-Chapter 173 - HOME AT LAST

My brother Ethan drove the car while the rest of the cars trailed behind him. Beside him, father sat with his gaze straight ahead on the road.

In the backseat of the car, I sat comfortably. My gaze directed to the scene passing right through the partially opened window of the car. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

On the opposite side of the car, Claire gracefully sat while she conversed with grandma who was sitting in between us.

The two women maintained a light conversation as our journey went on while I on the other hand preferred to silently listen to them.

Time passed by and soon enough, the gigantic Crawford Mansion came to view. My heart started to pump wild inside my chest and excitement began to bubble from inside me. ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛ｏ𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂

The colossal iron gates automatically opened and the car entered inside. Impatiently, I waited until the car Ethan was driving pulled into a stop right in front of the mansion..

The moment the car stopped, the door of the mansion flung open. A woman with short black hair, wearing a beautiful floral pink dress emerged from the door. When she turned in the direction where the car had stopped I had finally had a glimpse of her face. I realized it was Elisa, my best friend. She cut her hair shorter and it made her long even more stunning.

Fondness sprung at my now teary eyes as I looked at her. Cradled underneath her breast was my daughter Faith while on her other hand she was clutching Vien's hand.

I hasten out of the car almost immediately without waiting for Ethan to pull the door open for me. Then I was running towards Elisa's direction with tears abundantly flowing through my now flushed cheeks.

Vien started crying as she met me halfway. My daughter looked adorable in her sky blue dress and matching blue sandals. Her long hair was neatly pinned on her head with a ribbon with a color similar to her clothes.

I wrapped her tight into my arms as if I never want to let go. The weeks I had been away felt like extremely long months to me. I thought I would never be able to hold her into my arms.

Now that I'm holding her it gives me a heavenly feeling and I never want this moment to end in fear that it would turn out to be only a dream.

"I-I m-miss y-you mama," Vien said after a short moment. I gave her a sweet smile and landed a kiss on her rosy cheeks. I noticed that her speech improved a bit. It's not as slow as before. Thanks to her therapy, she could now actually speak clearly even if she stammers.

"I miss you too, Vien," I replied as I wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes. "Mama will never leave you again," I promised without taking my eyes off her. Whatever happens, I'm not going to leave my children again.

Elisa was full of smiles when I turned in her direction. Her eyes were wide and glowing with tears while she looked at me.

My observant eyes wandered through her radiant face. She looked so breathtakingly beautiful and she appeared more radiant than the sun shining from the clear blue sky. I didn't need to ask any more questions to know that something good happened while I'm away. She clearly looked so in love.

I took Vien's hand and led her in Elisa's direction. I temporarily let go of Vien's hand when we reached her spot.

"I'm glad you're finally here." She whispered as she handed me Faith who looked at me with wide innocent eyes while she wiggled in excitement. "We all missed you. " She added and gave me a quick hug.

"I missed you all too," I replied without tearing my gaze to the angel in my arms who continued to flail her hands in joy as if she sensed her mother was back after a long time of absence.

Tenderness swells inside me while I hold my baby into my arms. The night Vince tried to kill both me and Ace was the day I thought I would never have the second chance to hold her again. I even thought I would never have the chance to see them again. Thankfully, God is so good that he did not allow evil to win.

Angela was killed. Ace's father was poisoned. Samantha committed suicide. Vince was shot in the heart and he died instantly. They proved that evil never wins. Fate gave them the karma they deserved.

Now that the people who kept me miserable all these years are all dead, I could now live with my children in peace.

I landed a kiss on Faith's temples that sent her giggling. A wide smile stretches on my lips while I look at her seraphic face.

My thoughts were cut short when Ethan cleared his throat. When I lifted my gaze to him, my eyes widened after seeing him stand next to Elisa with his arms protectively wrapped around her narrow waist.

A gigantic smile spread on his face and a blush crept on his cheeks when his eyes met mine. His inky eyes were glowing. He has the exact appearance of a man who was in love.

"Phoenix, Elisa, and I were married." He announced, the blush on his cheeks deepened. "The truth is…. We actually eloped."

My eyes popped open from what he revealed. I was so happy for the two of them. I'm elated to hear that they reconciled.

"I'm so happy for you, Ethan," I said and crumpled his hair like an older sister would. "I'm glad that the two of you end up together." My eyes narrowed and I changed my tone into a strict sister. "Just don't break her heart again or I will break your bones," I added which Ethan replied with a boyish grin.

"I won't." He promised sincerely and hearing him say that I finally believe he will fulfill his words. "I won't do anything to hurt her and our baby boy." He said to my surprise and when my gaze shifted to Elisa, she gave me a smile confirming what her husband said.

They are having a child. A baby boy.
