Charlotte's POV

I looked at my stomach in the mirror with wide eyes. No, it was impossible. I was on pills. Did I forget to take it? No, as much as I remembered I took them regularly.

"Do you feel bad again? Your pace got paler, Ms. Wright." She asked, concerned.

"No, no." I replied absently and splashed some water on my face. Then I rested my hands on my neck and looked at my stomach in the mirror again, biting my lower lip nervously.

After feeling better, I went to Nathan's office, lost in my thoughts. I couldn't stop myself from thinking about the possibility of my pregnancy.

After greeting him, I sat down in the armchair beside his desk as he told me he had to make a few calls before leaving.

I bit my nails nervously, trying to remember when my last period was. However, I couldn't remember because my mind was blank. I took a deep breath and looked at the calendar on my phone.

I gulped nervously as I finally remembered. I was two days late. It felt like my heart stopped beating. I clutched my knee and ruffled my hair with my shaking hand. Then I looked at Nathan nervously, biting my lower lip. He was writing something on the paper while talking on the phone.

Nathan will freak out... He will freak out when he finds out.

And my modeling career...

I took deep breaths, trying to calm down as I felt dizzy again.

As soon as I felt better, I grabbed my bag and stood up abruptly.

"What happened? Where are you going?" Nathan asked, puzzled as he lifted his head and looked at me after hanging up the phone.

"I... I have a meeting at the agency. I forgot about it. I have to leave." I lied and gave him a nervous smile. "Bye." I added and left quickly without letting him say anything.

I placed my hand on my chest, breathing deeply as soon as I walked out of the hotel.

After calming down, I got in my car and started it without knowing where to go.

I parked my car close to the park and leaned my head back against the headrest, closing my eyes. I took a deep breath and pulled my phone out of my bag. I bit my lower lip nervously and called Sienna. I had to talk to her, or I was going to be crazy if I kept thinking about it.

"Is Romeo beside you?" I asked anxiously, ruffling my hair after greeting her.

"No, he went to the company. What happened? Your voice is strange." She asked, worried.

I nibbled my lower lip and said, closing my eyes. "I think I am pregnant."

I opened my eyes and furrowed my eyebrows as she didn't say anything.

"Sienna?"

She cleared her throat and mumbled. "Are you sure? Is it Nathan's? Does he know?"

"I had been feeling bad since this morning. And of course, it is Nathan's if there is a baby. No, I didn't tell him anything... I am scared." I ruffled my hair, breathing deeply.

She sighed. "Firstly, you should calm down. Then, you have to be sure if you are pregnant or not. If it is true, you should talk to Nathan." She said calmly.

"He will freak out. You know it is complicated between us... he doesn't want a serious relationship; he told me several times. And if I tell him that we are going to have a baby, he will think I want to trap him." I stated sadly.

"Lottie, he knows you very well not to think such a thing about you. So calm down. And you don't know if you are really pregnant." She said warmly.

"I don't know, Sienna. I am so scared. And my modeling career... Moreover, if he doesn't want..." I breathed deeply, closing my eyes as I felt nauseated again.

"Charlotte! Calm down. Everything will be fine. I am beside you whatever you decide. Come here; we will talk calmly, and you take a test." She suggested softly.

"No, thank you. I want to be alone." I refused, ruffling my hair.

"Fine. If you need anything, call me."

"Okay. See you."

"Take care!"

I threw my phone onto the passenger seat and started the car. I decided to buy a pregnancy test.

As I parked my car in front of the pharmacy, I pulled my sunglasses out of my bag and put it on. So no one would notice who I was. At least, I hoped.

When I wanted to ask for a pregnancy test, someone called me from behind, screaming happily. I breathed deeply and turned towards the girls who approached me cheerfully.

"Charlotte, I like you so much. You are gorgeous." One of the girls said happily, smiling ear-to-ear.

"Thank you." I gave her a warm smile.

"Could we take a photo together?" The other girl asked hopefully, looking at me with puppy eyes.

"Sure." I nodded, smiling.

As soon as we took a selfie together, I left the pharmacy. I couldn't buy a pregnancy test when they found out who I was.

Once I arrived at my penthouse, I went directly to the bathroom to take a bath.

Nathan called me when I was in the car, but I didn't pick up his call. Before talking to him, I had to calm down.

After taking a bath, I relaxed slightly, but it didn't stop me from thinking about what I was going to do.

I put on a white shirt and gray shorts and did my hair a messy bun. Then I went to the kitchen to eat something. The last time I had eaten was yesterday.

After making a sandwich for myself, I went to the living room and sat down on the couch. Once I turned on the TV, my phone buzzed.

'Princess, is everything okay? Why don't you pick up my calls? I am worried.'

I sighed, ruffling my hair, and bit my lower lip, looking at his message.

'Don't worry. I am fine. My phone was in silent mode.'

'Are you home? I left the hotel a few minutes ago. We couldn't have lunch together; so how about watching a movie?'

I bit my lower lip nervously as my heart started beating faster. I wasn't ready to see him now.

'I am not home. I am at my parents'. Maybe another time. See you.'

'Fine. Take care, princess.'

I heaved a loud sigh and leaned back against the couch, placing my phone beside me on the couch.

After eating a little, I went to bed. I felt so exhausted.

"No!" I screamed, waking up, and sat up on the bed, breathing heavily. I relaxed as soon as I understood it was a nightmare.

I pulled my legs against my chest and leaned my head on my knees. Last night was awful. Nightmares didn't let me sleep properly. It had been waking me up.

I dragged myself out of the bed and went to the kitchen to drink a glass of water. Then I decided to prepare breakfast. I was starving.

When I cracked an egg, I pursed my lips together as the smell of it made me nauseous. As it didn't pass, I rushed to the bathroom, covering my mouth with my hand.

After throwing up, I brushed my teeth and looked at myself in the mirror, turning to the side. I bit my lower lip and looked at my stomach in the mirror, trying to understand if it looked different or not.

Come on, Charlotte! Even if you are pregnant, it isn't more than a month or two months. Of course, you will not notice any changes on your body.

I breathed deeply, shaking my head. Then I went back to my bedroom to change my clothes. Today I had to talk to Nathan. If I kept thinking about it one more day, I would be crazy.

I called Nathan, biting my lower lip nervously. My heart was pounding.

After a few seconds, he picked up my call and greeted me happily.

"Could you come to my place?" My voice shook in anxiety.

"What happened? Are you okay? Your voice is strange." He asked, concerned.

"I need to talk to you." I mumbled as tears ran down my cheeks uncontrollably.

"Lottie, what happened? You are scaring me." He asked anxiously.

"I...I think I am pregnant." I replied, sobbing, and sat down on the bed as my legs started trembling. "Nathan?" I called him, worried as he didn't say anything.

"Yes, I... am here... You are pregnant? Umm... Are you sure?" He mumbled.

"I have been feeling bad the last few days. Nausea, dizziness. And I am late." I replied, ruffling my hair. "Yesterday, I wanted to buy a pregnancy test, but there were girls who knew me. So I left the pharmacy instantly." I informed and breathed deeply.

"I am coming. Don't worry. I will buy the pregnancy test." He informed me while there were strange noises coming from the background. Probably, he was searching for something on his desk hurriedly.
