Billionaire, Let's Divorce!

I got in my car and drove past the speed limit as I sped to her apartment.

Since the birthday party that she had cried off, she hadn't returned to my place. So it was only right that she would be at her apartment or maybe she decided to go cry on her lover's shoulders. Well, whichever it was, I would find out when I get to her apartment.

I didn't bother to drive the car into her driveway and properly park. I just drove the car to a halt, removed the key and charged up the stairs to her apartment.

The moment I reached her door, I didn't hesitate to slam my fist on her door.

'Bella!" I yelled out with all the anger and pain I felt.

There was no response from inside but was relentless. I continued to slam my fist on her door.

I raised my fist to slam it on the door for the fourth time when voices drifted to me. I paused and let my hand hang in the air.

Then the voices became louder and clearer then Bella's voice boomed through the doorway, "I can't give you any more money, you gambling addict! Get out of my house, now!" She sounded frustrated and from the volume of her voice, you could tell that she was raving mad.

A louder response came immediately. "If you don't give me the money, I'll tell your posh man that the child in your belly is actually mine!" The deep voice retorted threateningly. Then he scoffed, "How can he even believe you're carrying his child? That day, he didn't even have sex with you!"

I staggered back. I couldn't believe my ears, even the child in her belly was a lie. She wasn't carrying my child. Relief, disappointment and anger flooded through me. I slumped against the wall opposite her room door as all the strength drained from me as the emotions rioted within me.

I hadn't wanted a child now but I had accepted it so much that I even started. reading books on fatherhood, preparing myself to be the best father to my

bane,"

The argument continued, "Mind your fucking business, Isaac," Bella's valee trembled

"As long as you're carrying my child the your business is forever my business, babe," Isaac drawled in an

aling voice.

"This child is Mark's. Whether you like it or not. Whether you accept it or not you will never be called the father of my child!"

"Ehm," the man hummed, "I wonder what Mr Mark would say when he finds out that he is the father of the child in your belly in name only. I bet he will be terribly pleased."

"I'm warning you, stay out of my businesst Now get your filthy self out of my house before I call the cops."

The arguments stretched for a few more seconds while I grasped the whole insanity of my situation. Suddenly, there was a piercing scream and I was instantly followed by the sound of things clattering to the ground and breaking.

I could no longer remain here while I listened like a bystander so I rammed my shoulder against the door then kicked it open with my feel.

The door opened to reveal the man, who I presumed to be Isaac, straddling a frightened Bella. Her face was bruised and the man had pinned her down, probably hitting her but he had stopped when I kicked the door open.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

"Bella!" I yelled and rushed toward them. The man leapt up to lunge at me but I dealt him a punch to the face, directing all the anger I fell into the blow The punch sent him ramming back into the wall. I hit him one more time then I rushed to Bella and knelt by her sile.

"Bella, are you okay?" Her gaze was unsteady and her hands lifted to my shoulders, "Mark...." she murmured weally.

I pulled out my phone and dialed the emergency number.

Suddenly, I felt a wetness on my knees looked down and found that I was

blood. My eyes bulged out as I realized that Bella was bleeding, blood was seeping from under her.

"Fuck!"

I turned when I heard the man I had punched cuss. His eyes were wide as he took in the disaster he had created. Before the blink of an eyes, he struggled to his feet and staggered out of the room. "Fucker!" I muttered as I hoisted Bella in my arms. "Stay with me okay? I will get help now."

"Mark" she weakly drawled one more time then her hands fell limply from my shoulder to her side.

Fuck! 'Help! Thollered out to whoever can hear me. "Somebody's hurt, we need help! My voice sounded urgent, "Help. She's pregnant, and she's bleeding now!"

Thesishe was cleaned and prepared forpurgery. The double operating room doors also had a translucent panel that could look through but i was not allowed close to it so I had no choice but to wait outside the operating room restlessly pacing back and forth

I suddenly wished Sydney was with me. I wished she was here to offer me comfort and tell me that Bella would be fine. My senses registered the weight of my phone in my hands and I thought of calling her. Would she even bother to make it here? Since the day that I met her, I had not been very nice to her. Bella was even the worst so I doubt she would be willing to rush here for either of us. No matter how kind- hearted she is. So I determinedly tucked my phone into my pocket.

I left the front of the operating room and walked to the reception where I paced again. I tried to take my mind off it a little bit and called my driver to bring my car to the hospital. After the call ended, I sent him the address where he would pick the car from.

But I just couldn't bring myself to relax. I kept glancing at my watch and it was as if time was not even moving, each second was a torture as I waited for the operating door to open as I wondered what was going on in there.

Just as I was going out of my mind with worry, the door to the operating room was pushed open. I ran the short distance between me and the doctor who was taking off his nose mask. "How is she?" My eyes darted behind him to the door, "Has the surgery ended already?"

The doctor's gaze settled on me and it was unfathomable. Finally, he spoke up. "Mr Mark, the surgery was successful and the patient is out of danger, but... I held my breath as the doctor took a dramatic pause, taking his time. His chest rose as he sighed, "Unfortunately, due to severe injuries, we couldn't save her child."

I felt rooted to the spot and I just stared at the doctor, taking in and processing this information that he had just dumped on me. Even though I now know that the pregnancy isn't mine, knowing that she had lost a child really touched my heart. Especially since she once had a stillborn. I wondered how much mental stress she must be going through right now. Yes, she had been horrible but no one deserved a fate like that, no one deserved to lose a pregnancy they have been nurturing and grown to love. Bells had moved the child in her, it was the only thing she ever talked about whenever she got the chance.
