After I left the house I cut off all contact with my family, no matter why they did what they did, they still lied to me and betrayed the trust and faith I had in them, the following week, I went to Edwin's office and my surprise I saw my family
Also there and when they all saw me they ran towards me
"princess we were worried about you, where we're you?" my dad asked but I ignored him and went to Edwin and handed him the divorce papers
"I am not divorcing you, babe let's talk about this please" Edwin begged after looking at the papers, I struggled not to succumb to my feelings and keep a bank face
"Edwin I hate you for what you did to me and I hate you, even more knowing that while I fell for you and developed feelings for you, you were out there sleeping with my best friend you disgust me" I simply replied and turn to leave but stopped and turn back
"you don't love me so sign the divorce, oh and as for the thing my father promise you, you can have it as compensation for being forced to make love to me"
"Cupcake stop being ridiculous, I know what we did was wrong, but we did it for your f*****g good," my brother said looking angry but I just looked at him with sadness in my eyes
"Please don't force me to accept him back because I can't," I said and left
After that, I booked a plane ticket to the only place I knew my parents would never expect me to be there, ready to start my new life.

Edwin's pov
I watch as she left the room with sadness and guilt written all over my face, yes it was indeed all for the CEO position at first but I genuinely fell for her, I mean who wouldn't, she was kind and always took care of from the beginning of the marriage, provide me with both emotional and physical support and even when she was insecure or feeling down she always made sure I.never felt unwanted, I did sleep with Daniella but that was because she promised me that would be the last time, little did I know that Sasha would walk in on us
"You f*****g bastard, we had a deal, how dare you break her heart" Samion yelled at me as he lunged forward to attack me but was quickly stopped by his dad
"fighting would achieve nothing, plus we all knew she was going to find out sooner or later" my father-in-law spoke
"My poor baby, she must hate us by now, why did we think this was a good idea" my mother-in-law spoke as she found a place to sit
"calm down, Sasha might be angry now but it won't last forever plus she will forgive us, all we need to do now is to bring her back home and talk" Jamien finally spoke while I just started at the divorce papers
...Sasha's pov
I arrive in the evening and rented a hotel, the next day i used some of my savings to buy a house, not as big as the one I shared with Edwin but it'll do for now, now for the next thing, finding a job, I knew that with my degree and work experience, it wouldn't be that hard but boy was I wrong, I went to 5interviews and none wanted to hire me because of one reason or another.
I went home from my final interview of the day and slump on the couch feeling exhausted
'If this is what it feels like every day then I will die I thought and sighed as I peeled myself up from the couch and went to the kitchen to make myself a cup of coffee, the moment I open the bag of coffee and the strong smell of the coffee hit me, I immediately got nauseous and ran to the bathroom to empty my stomach
"Not again," I thought, this has been happening ever since last week, at first I thought it was the environment and it should be gone after a few days but no. I washed my face and return to the room to change, I was about to get a dress from the closet when my eyes landed on a box labeled "sanitary pads" and that's when it hit me, my period, I haven't gotten my period in 2months
"f**k this can't be happening at least not right now please I can't, it's ok I can do this, no I can not" I kept trying to comfort myself maybe it was just a late period
I rushed out and went to the nearest pharmacist to get a pregnancy test.
It took a lot of effort but I finally convinced myself to use it, waiting anxiously for the result, I tried distracting myself by doing other things like checking if the money I had left in my account would be enough if I was indeed pregnant and yes it was after all I did get paid by working in my dad's company, then I tried watching tv, cooking anything at all that could distract me from worrying about the result until it finally came the time to check
Closing my eyes and praying I slowly removed it and yes there it was two red lines, I was f*****g pregnant, now the question is what do I do next
Going back to Edwin was not even an option, over my dead body would I abort my baby so I was left with the last option which was to raise the child.
The next months before delivery was hard, I got dizzy very often and my craving never stop luckily I made a friend who helped me and made things easier for me, I also had to take a yoga class and parenting class because I had no clue on what to do after having a baby talk less of taking care of one. Nine months passed and I gave birth to a baby boy
