Chapter 7. Not Someone To Mess With

Brie POV

I thought I had already tackled my worst nightmare. I thought since Noah had dealt me with a blow, he could never hurt me anymore, but this betrayal was the worst thing he could have done to me.

To realize that he devised a seamless plan to get me out of his life for good and made me look like I was the guilty one in our marriage is a low blow.

He even placed the death of his parents on my shoulders!

No wife who served him faithfully like I did deserves what he did to me.

To think that I even shunned all efforts of my brothers to reunite because I thought I already had a family in him.

I almost laughed aloud at my naivety.

What a shame!

What a waste!

I loved him!

I trusted him!

And what did he repay me?

Betrayal!

My chest felt constricted from the pain.

How can Noah do this to me when all I ever did was love him?

How can he be this ruthless?

I gripped the sides of my seat, trying to control my anger, feeling sweat beading on my forehead.

Now, I was thankful that I never mentioned the baby. I can never trust someone like him with my baby.

Over my dead body.

“Briana? Briana?”

I looked at my brother’s panicked face, not understanding what happened. They were talking simultaneously – with worry etched on each of their faces, but I could not understand what they were saying.

It was as if I had suddenly gone deaf.

My gut twisted, and I cried in so much pain.

“Blood!” I read the lips of one of my brothers.

In reflex, my gaze went down, feeling a trickle of liquid on my legs.

When I looked back at their ashen faces, it made me realize one thing.

“My baby? Don’t let me lose the baby!” I cried as fear engulfed me.

My mouth parted in panic. Fear blocked my throat.

Fortunately, the plane landed, and an ambulance met us on the tarmac. One of my brothers lifted me to run down the airstairs.

I was immediately transferred into a trolley bed and carted inside the ambulance.

My four brothers got in right after.

I grabbed my bespectacled brother’s arm. “Rowan, please. Don’t make me lose the baby.”

“You are not going to. I promise you.” Rowan replied, to which my other brothers chorused aye.

I nodded, and my gaze went to their tightly clenched hands until everything around me became a blur.

“What a sick b*stard!”

I heard Jenna’s comment when I came to.

Charles shushed her.

“I didn’t realize that a man like that existed. He was not a man. He was a coward. A spineless, manipulative j*rk!” I heard Jenna’s voice again, ignoring her tirade.

There was the sound of the chairs scraping the floor and shuffling feet until there was silence.

I remembered what happened, and my eyes flew at the same time I jolted in bed.

My hands went to press my lower abdomen to check for anything unusual.

Then, I saw the emergency call button and started pressing. All at once, my door opened, and I heard the sound of hurried footsteps.

“You’re awake,” Jenna said when she spotted me.

“How’s my baby?” I asked Jenna when I saw her from the bunch of male muscles with a frown marring my face.

“The baby is fine. Don’t worry.” Her assurance allayed my fears.

I breathed a relieved sigh and leaned back on the bed.

“I thought I was going to lose it. ” I said, twisting my fingers in inner turmoil.

I do not know what I would have done if I suddenly lose the baby. I already lost my husband and the only parents I had ever known. I cannot afford to lose more.

Jenna patted me on the back. “Stop stressing and concentrate on your and your baby’s health. That’s all you need to do. Don’t think about that bast*d ex of yours.” She reminded.

I nodded.

“He’s not worth your tears, honey. No man is ever worth the heartbreak.” Jenna added, and she was right.

“Even my brother?” I asked, though my face was contorting.

Noah’s betrayal was still fresh in my memory.

Jenna sat down on the edge of the bed and took hold of my hands in hers. “Charles had his share of tears. The most he cried about is you. In fact. All of your brothers weren’t truly happy until they found you. All of them love you and want you to be happy. That is the greatest gift you can give them. And of course, this baby in your womb.”

I nodded.

“Does Noah know about the baby?”

I shook my head. “I didn’t tell him.”

“If you asked me, you had a clean break. Noah Hunter will never know about your baby or your secret identity. Let him think the worst and shock him one day.”

Jenna and my brothers left the room when they thought I had been sleeping. When the door closed on them, I slowly opened my eyes, and a plan started to work in my head.

One day, I will shock Noah Hunter and all the people who believed the lies he concocted about me. He shouldn’t have messed up with someone like me.
