Once they are settled in the car and ready to fly back to Philippines, Tequila contact Samantha. Catriona doesn"t want anyone to know about her condition except him and Samantha. But soon, Veronica and Sabrina will know that she"s pregnant and the b.a.s.t.a.r.d name Enzo impregnate her when she was drunk.
But anyway, she can"t do anything about it now and she will keep it. Though it breach her contract. But she heard from Tequila that Sabrina is working on canceling the contract so she doesn"t have to worry about it. They used a private plane of EPUA back to the Philippines.
Tequila brought her secretly to Samantha for checkup. Samantha also studied obstetrics. All of her life after she was dump by her ex-fiancé she work hard and she specialized in gynecology and obstetrics, finding a hope if she could get pregnant.
"Sam." Catriona speaks in a low and lonely voice. "I am afraid that my baby would be like me."
"Don"t worry, sweetheart. That won"t happen. Besides, you said that Enzo didn"t use protection when you were drunk so as I calculated, the baby is safe—however, we still have to see findings if the drug that the b.a.s.t.a.r.d injected on you would do further than blinding you."
Sam started thinking about the effect of the drug on pregnant woman. She have to do it through a mouse for experiment so they could do something quickly if there"s an effect on the baby.
"Let"s see how the baby is doing." Samantha help her up to lay down on the hospital bed as she put a gel on her abdominal and monitor the blip on the monitor. "Woah."
"What?" Catriona asked.
"There"s three pulse." Samantha said excitedly. "d.a.m.n, Alvarez"s genes." Samantha said excitedly. Tequila who was watching smiles seeing Samantha become excited over babies. His heart melted but if only she could have one of her own, she will be the happiest person in the earth.
"You mean, its triplets."
"Possibly. But don"t worry, Cat, I"ll monitor you regularly. These babies are a miracle."
"Oh, s.h.i.+t." Catriona smack her forehead. "Fcking, Enzo. I will kill him."
"Don"t talk like that, Enzo was desperate."
Catriona don"t speak at all. And she can feel the baby—babies inside her. Automatically her mother"s instinct kicked in. She wants to protect her babies. She want to live with them but how can she take care of them if she"s blind?
"Bert, I need strong breeds of dog to facilitate around the farm and to protect me and the babies." Catriona requested. Albert smile.
"Anything for you, baby sis."
After Samantha is done with the checkup, she help Catriona to sit up and fix her clothes. Albert who was so amazed of Samantha strode toward her and scoop her chin and turn it sideways a little and he kissed her. Samantha was too surprise.
"Please, don"t do that in front of me." Catriona said. Though she can"t see, she can sense and she could hear the almost whisper of smacking of lips.
But Albert just ignore her and turn Samantha around and they start kissing in front of Catriona. Catriona frowns and wanted to smack the two away. She"s broken hearted and she"s blind yet the two had a gut to do that in front of her. "Please, if you want to make out, find another room. I am blind but my senses are stronger than my sight."
"Sorry." Albert grin and pats her head. "Don"t be jealous." He tease. Samantha smile back at him. Catriona only roll her eyes and demanded to leave. "I"ll visit you if I have time. It"s hard to baby sit my baby sister together with her own babies. Right?"
"Yeah. Focus on staying fit. Take care of Catriona, the babies are important as well."
"We can adopt them." Albert said still teasing Catriona. Catriona frown.
"I didn"t say that I"ll give away my kids."
"Just kidding. Of course we are here to help you and to take care of you. Right now, only few people know that we are back. Sabrina, you, my darling and I. To keep us safe, I have to disguise when going out. So what do you want me to take to your farm?"
Since Samantha was free and relaxing before re-doing her research, she help Tequila to buy things that Catriona needed. She"s a big help. Catriona only has few cravings. So for Samantha to be ready, she chooses foods that pregnant women usually crave for. Samantha check the expiration date one by one.
"You"ll be a great housewife." Tequila wrapped his arms around her and kisses Samantha on the cheeks. Catriona was staying in the hotel that Sabrina set up before they fly to Catriona"s farm.
"Is it okay with you even if I can"t—"
"Sam, I love you and that"s not a problem with me." He patted her head. "Don"t worry too much."
♥♥♥
Catriona was alone in the hotel room, sitting on the bed with a gun in her hand. She was ready if there are intruders. The room opens and she heard footsteps. From the footstep, she knows that it"s a woman and the scent of the perfume of the woman was very unique. She knows who it was.
"How are you?" Sabrina asked and she sat down on the sofa in front of her.
"I"m doing fine."
"You look—anxious. Don"t worry. It"s quiet for a while."
"I am pregnant." She said straightforward. Sabrina was silent and she didn"t know what her expression is. Instead of Sabrina to get angry. Her eyes soften and she look at Catriona"s stomach.
"Good thing that I already cancel the contract." She said. She walk towards her and put a hand on her shoulder. "Take care of my niece or nephew."
"There are three pulse, that"s what Sam told me."
"Lucky triplets."
"Don"t tell Enzo. Your brother impregnated me while I was half conscious."
Sabrina laugh and then her eyes show sadness. Its a pity for Enzo who truly wanted to impregnate Catriona. He may not see his kids anymore or he may not see her stomach grow. Enzo was desperate and she knows it. But for her brother"s safety, she won"t tell him that Catriona was back, blind and pregnant. Catriona suffer big and she will do everything to keep her away from any danger.
"I am happy for you. But I cannot be happy for my brother"s despair."
"I"m sorry, Brina. Enzo"s safe away from me. My head is too expensive." She smile bitterly.
"I have to talk to Alanis. There"s a chance that they will go for another a.s.sa.s.sin agency. So, I put double security around your farm. EPUA"s. Gabriel"s people will be guarding you 24-7."
"Gabriel"s people?"
"Yes. I had screen them. There"s two of them and they pa.s.s my screening. Gabriel would also monitor your safety. Don"t worry, I trust my Gabby than EPUA"s agents for now. Eros gave a big impact on me and I am certain that there are others who sell information outside."
"I trust you." Catriona said.
"I"ll find a way to find an antidote for you."
"I wonder why Eros didn"t kill me."
"He was obsessed with you. He wanted to play… so he shouldn"t know that you are pregnant or else—he wouldn"t just kill you and your babies but Enzo."
For Catriona"s situation, she can"t be with the man she love. For the safety of both of them and for her angels. She"s willing to exchange her happiness for safety. It"s better to be safe than sorry.
