The Faceless Billionaire Celebrity Wife-Chapter 224: Miscarriage.

Few minutes later, Shikera understood what Mignon meant by ’we move by Alan’. When she had asked earlier, Mignon had ignored her and simply asked Shikera to come with her, before leading her to Alan’s house.

After a short conversation between Mignon and Alan, the latter walked to the backyard of his house to bring out a... Shikera was not sure what to call it.

It looked like a bike which had been modified into a tricycle, but it wasn’t any of them. To Shikera, it looked more like a...

"Stop thinking and get on it! Alan here is an inventor himself so you should trust that this...vehicle is totally safe," Mignon whispered in her ears.

Alan shook his head. "I can guarantee that it’s safe but if you don’t want to use this, you should take bikes instead. Leah just likes using this so I brought it out instead," he said.

"No, it’s alright since Leah will be with me. I can’t ride a bike on my own anyways," Shikera replied him. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

She turned to the bike-tricycle and inhaled deeply, and Alan lifted her up to get on it. Mignon joined her and within a minute, they were on the way. Surprisingly, the vehicle turned out to be faster than Shikera imagined it would be.

They got to the hospital in a hour and a doctor came to receive them, saying he had heard from Grandma Cooper that her granddaughters were visiting the hospital today. He ushered them inside the hospital while they exchanged pleasantries with every single person they passed by. It made no difference whether this was an hospital or just a street on the island, the people greeted each other loudly and heartily.

Grandma Cooper seemed to have briefed the doctor on the reason why they were there as he immediately went straight to the point when they got into his office.

"So who’s taking the pregnancy test?" he asked.

Cyprian held Raymond’s hand tight like an ancient princess declaring her love for the family slave, as she stood before her brothers, while in truth, she actually felt like the commoner maid who was bringing in the prince to her family as her husband.

However, her brothers did not seem to think like that as they simply stared at her and Raymond’s enjoined hands, like they were seeing a piece of ornament they had never expected to see in their lifetime.

"What’s the meaning of this, Rian?" Callum, her youngest brother asked.

"The meaning of what, Cal?" Cyprian asked back, shivering inwardly. Well, she had been brave earlier when she asked Raymond to come in with her but now, all the courage seemed to have flown out through the window.

"Is he still with you?" Callum asked another question, causing Cyprian to nod quickly.

"What are you saying, Cal? Ray isn’t...uhm, as sentimental as you all think. I told him everything already and he accepted and forgave me," she said, her words coming out in a rush.

Though Raymond found that her last sentence was kind of strange, he didn’t breathe a word and simply stood beside her, squeezing her hand to comfort her.

"Really? He didn’t ask anymore questions and didn’t think he has to punish anyone?" her oldest brother asked.

At this point, Cyprian turned to Raymond and whispered in his ears, "Can you wait for me in the car? I’ll just have a quick discussion with them and then join you."

Raymond agreed and turned, ready to leave when one of her brothers stood up and placed a hand on his shoulders.

"You should stay. Cyprian, could you excuse us please?" the one asked, his tone firm and commanding.

Cyprian shook her head. "No guys, don’t do this. We already forgot about it and Raymond is totally okay with it so just stay out of our matter!" she stated agitatedly.

"It’s better if you just excuse us now, Cyprian. You know we can actually contact him whenever we like. It’s not like you will latch onto him and follow him wherever he goes," Callum pointed out, shrugging as if the matter at hand was none of his concern. As if he neither wanted Raymond to wait, nor did he want him to leave.

Raymond stepped in at this point.

"It’s alright, Rian. I’ll just speak with them for a few minutes and then join you," he assured her, patting her shoulders.

"No, Ray. We should leave now and then come back later. My brothers seem to be on—"

"Stop that, Rian. Can you see how you acting right now? As if you have a very big secret that you are hiding from me. What is it, huh?" he questioned.

"Let’s break up!" Cyprian yelled, covering her ears to block out her own noise.

"What are you saying?" Raymond frowned. Cyprian brothers also sat up on their seats, a frown settling on their face.

"I said let’s break up, Ray. We would break up after you hear whatever they want to say, so why not just break up now?" she asked, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Cyprian—"

Cyprian interrupted him, "I’m gone." She turned to her brothers with a pained look in her eyes and said,"I will sleep in an hotel for some days. Don’t search for me." And she turned to walk out the door.

"Wait Rian!" Callum called after her, "Didn’t you say he’s aware?"

But Cyprian didn’t reply as she was long gone.

Regaining his composure after the shock of what he just heard, Raymond spoke up, "What am I supposed to be aware of?"

Cyprian’s second older brother replied him,"We thought Cyprian already told you so we wanted to speak to you about it. But with what she said just now, I think we were wrong. You should go after her and ask her instead."

"I do not think she’s ready to tell me. I will appreciate if I can hear from you instead," Raymond stated.

Callum sighed, "We were asking if she told you that she had a miscarriage once."
