Fifty Shades Ever After?

Chapter 59

Ana POV

After the police get statements and copies of our surveillance videos they leave and the house is in uproar. Christian is comforting Ava, Hailey is trying to comfort Marcos who is scared. Gail comes in to help and she seems to be what he needs. Parker had taken the kids back upstairs as not to see what was going on a Derrick sweet Derrick was upstairs oblivious to it all. Teddy is still outside with Terry, not quite calm enough yet, while Taylor and Sawyer take me and mom back to the hospital. No one really notices as we leave and I don't take offense to that. Too much has happened. As we pull up, Dr Greene has a gurney waiting and a look of disapproval on her face. "I thought we said no exertion"? I sigh "But I didn't, I got slapped and my body twisted on it's own. Not my fault". She looks at me then mom and mom nods in agreement "Well that's a horse of a different color then. Grace mentioned a few internal sutures popped"? Mom nods and I lay back letting them discuss amongst themselves. A few minutes later I am in a procedure room "Ana I don't want to reopen you completely, I am going to numb you and give you medication to put you in a twilight state. You will be awake but.not caring what happens. You shouldn't feel a thing, if you do let me know and I'll medicate the area more". I nod as she sticks a needle in my stomach as well as starting an IV for the medication. She also starts saline to counter the blood loss I had earlier. I drift off into a dreamless existence.

After the procedure, I must have been placed into a recovery room, mom sitting besides me "Mom how long has it been"? She looks at me "About an hour or so. You did good. Just have to stay overnight make sure there isn't an infection. Ana why did you have a hysterectomy"? I sigh "I developed HPV and it mutated into cancer. The only real option was a hysterectomy. Now no cancer". Mom looks at me "Do you know where you got it from"? I nod and look away "Kate has HPV also, so I imagine it was from Elliot. The stress I was under is was mutated it. So it's partly my fault it happened". Mom sighs "Why didn't you say anything Ana? I would have gone with you? I could have helped you more". I look at mom "I was ashamed and felt dirty. The one person who swore in front today God in sickness and health and to be faithful couldn't do it for a year. It's humiliating and maked me feel I got what I deserved. I shouldn't have believed that letter was from Christian he is too possessive and protective of me and the kids to just give permission to be with his brother. I had a brain fart apparently". "It did sound weird, especially since Christian knew how he was. You didn't though neither did Kate. He puts on a good face". "I found that out the hard way. I wish I had used better common sense. But even though the twins weren't planned and I did it as a single parent I can't completely regret Elliot. Cause I got the twins. But I would have preferred a better relationship".

Mom looks at me "Was this the first time he struck you"? I nod and she sighs "I'm glad for that at least, though why he hit you is beyond me". "He blames me for him losing grey construction, where Ros is the one who did it all, I just froze the accounts and changed everything to a different bank. I actually didn't do anything. I just protected him yet again". Mom looks confused "What do you mean again"? I look at her "Dad hasn't told you"? She shakes her head "Told me what Ana"? "Elliot was careless with his affair with Kate. Paparazzi caught them numerous times having sex in public places, following them to her house and taping them there, apparently Marcos was awake with some of it. I didn't watch the videos too in-depth. This started shortly after he went to Canada. Then dad talked to him when we had that dinner celebrating the kids being on the honor roll and Mia's engagement". She looks in thought "You seemed ok with him that night Ana. Did you know then"? I look away ashamed "I did, but unfortunately I was faithful and it had been a very long time. I'd had a couple of martinis as had Elliot. I'm not excusing myself but alcohol and celibacy are not good bed partners". Mom laughs "He was your husband, I'm not judging you Ana. More him, we didn't raise him this way. I'm wondering if Kate was manipulating him a bit. Thinking after she knew you were married to him, maybe he could get money from you".
