Her Dark Desires-Chapter 120: Two Babies

City Hospital.

Eliana slowly opened her eyes with a groan. Her eyes roamed round the hospital, and as she began to wonder why she was here, she heard her husband’s voice.

"Are you awake?"

Eliana turned to look at him standing up from the couch and walking towards her.

"What happened?" she asked.

"Leon called me saying you fell unconscious in front of the station. Did Stella say anything to you?" Zach asked with a frown.

Eliana shook her head and said, "Maybe it’s because I haven’t eaten anything today. I’m sure I’m fine."

"I will only relax when the doctor tells me that himself." Zach replied, handing her a glass of water.

Eliana didn’t argue and just collected the water. After drinking a little bit, she gave the glass back to Zach, and just then the doctor entered their ward with a smile.

"How are you feeling, Mrs. Sanders?" The doctor asked.

"I’m feeling better now, but you have to say that to my husband in order for me to leave this hospital."

"Is she really alright?" Zach asked the doctor.

"The doctor smiled and said, "Your wife is perfectly fine; she just needs to ensure she feeds the baby on time."

"What baby?" Eliana asked, totally confused at the doctor’s words.

The doctor laughed softly and said, "Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Sanders, you both are about to become parents."

"What? Are...are you saying that I’m pregnant?" Eliana asked in disbelief.

The doctor nodded with a smile and replied, "You are two weeks pregnant."

Eliana places her hand on her belly, and a warm smile appeared on her face. So a baby was currently in her womb?

"Thank you, doctor." Zach replied, and when the doctor left, he held Eliana’s hand and said, "I don’t even know how to express how I feel right now."

"How do you feel?"

"So happy. I feel so much joy that I..."

Eliana hugged him before he could complete his words and said, "We are having a baby, Zach."

As if remembering something, Eliana separated herself from him and asked, "What about Greta? What do we do if her test comes back positive?"

"Nothing. It only means we will be having more than one baby." Zach replied with a smile.

Eliana smiled. "Thank you, Zach. I love you."

"I love you too, my Eli."

.....

In a motel, tears filled Amber’s eyes as she watched the news of her mother’s arrest. What was she going to do now? She has no one, no money, nothing at all. Was this how her life was going to end? Is Eliana going to defeat her once again?

Amber broke down in tears. This wasn’t fair; why did she have to leave her entire life in comparison with Eliana? Since they have caught her mother, it won’t be long before they catch her.

"No, I can’t go to jail. I can’t leave like that." Amber said, as she cried some more.

As if getting an idea, she wiped the tears from her face and carried a fruit knife that was on the center table. She looked at her mother’s face on the news as the newscaster declared that a death sentence could be given to Sloane, whose real name has been revealed to be Stella.

Amber switched off the TV and silently went to the bathroom with the knife in her hand. She filled the tub with water and climbed on it without taking off her clothes and then brought the knife to her wrist.

Tears rolled from her eyes as she whispered, "If I can’t defeat you alive, Eliana, then I will make sure that my spirit hunts you forever. You have taken everything from me. You took away Zach, my dad, and my wealth, and now you have taken away my mom, but you are mistaken if you think I will give you the pleasure of seeing me arrested. You won’t get to choose my ending, Eliana."

Remembering her mom, Amber closed her eyes in pain and said, "I really did love you, Mom, but in my next life, I wish for you to never be my mom. I wish for us to never meet."

And with those words, Amber slit her wrist, and she smiled bitterly as her blood dripped to the floor. The knife dropped to the floor, and Amber’s eyes slowly fluttered closed as she rested her body in the water, and as time went by with no one to save her, Amber Moore breathed her last, leaving the world with so much bitterness and hatred in her heart.

........

Sanders Mansion.

"So, you are saying that you guys are expecting two babies?" Charlotte asked in disbelief.

Eliana nodded and replied, "Greta just confirmed that she is pregnant, so yes, we are having two babies. I feel so nervous."

"There is no need to be nervous. We are all here for you. I feel so excited that I’m going to be a grandma to two babies." Charlotte said happily; she then moved her gaze to Ryan, who was playing a game on his phone, and said, "With Zach’s personality, I have always thought that Ryan would be the one to give me a grandchild, but imagine my surprise to find out that my son doesn’t even have a girlfriend."

"I did have a girlfriend; she just broke up with me." Ryan retorted without taking his eyes from his phone. He jumped happily after winning that level and moved his gaze to Eliana. "So in less than a year, I will have two little cute buns to play with?"

"I know you will be a great uncle." Eliana said.

"I will be the best uncle," Ryan replied.

Zach, who had gone outside for a call, came back inside the house with a deep frown on his face.

"Is everything alright?" Eliana asked, noticing his frown. Did something happen at work?

Without answering, Zach collected the TV remote and switched it on.

News of how a body was found in the bathroom of a motel was currently going viral because the identity of that body was Amber Moore.

Eliana gasped in shock, taking a step back as she whispered, "Amber is dead?"
