FIFTY SEVEN
“Exactly,” dad replied.
“I see,”
I said then nodded, but the truth is I feel I am happy with what I heard.
“So?” he asked while waiting for my answer.
“So what? Nothing, whatever the reason behind their wedding is I don’t care.” I smile at him then leave him.
“Hailey Hian,” Fuck! Why did he mention my full name? But still, I ignored him.
I’d rather marry Vince to get revenge on Kyla than to marry Hunter again. But of course, I won’t do that because as of now I will enjoy being single.
IT’S BEEN two months since I was molested by the man who said he loves me. To this day I still don’t know who he is and I still have no idea of his identity. I didn’t even bother to get to know him because nothing would happen.
Everything is okay. For over a month a lot has happened to me and the people around me. I and Eugene still hang out together.
William always visited Hera.
Ashley and Asher are now dating
And Kyla and Hunter are already married.
Honestly, I felt a little pain. Regardless of what happened I admit I still love him. But I choose my pride over my feelings. I know that Kyla and Hunter might both be hurt if I accepted Vince’s love but for now I am losing my interest in both of them.
I have also noticed that I always feel bad. My body is always heavy and I don’t want to get up. Also because I’m not used to always being in the hospital so I just chose to stay at home and rest because I always feel my heavy is so heavy and sometimes I feel dizzy.
Eugene is here to say that Vince’s case was going on and soon, they will arrest him.
“I think that’s good news, Eu,” I said then winked at him.
“I know and because the news I brought is good, we should celebrate, you haven’t been out for a week now,” he said.
We are here in my room. I am not feeling well so I told the maid to bring him here.
“If I’ll be free and ok,” I said when daddy suddenly came with the maid. They brought food for me because they knew I was feeling bad.
“I asked the maid to bring your favorite food, you haven’t eaten since last night, are you ok?” dad asked me.
“Yeah, my stomach hurts a bit,” I replied. Daddy looked at me and Eugene.
“You can join her,” he said to Eugene.
The food that the maid brought is my favorite but I was surprised when I smelled the dish. I didn’t seem to like the smell. There were some butterflies in my stomach that flew and almost turned my stomach so I quickly got up and ran to the bathroom to vomit.
I don’t know how many minutes I stayed inside but when I came back they were all looking at me especially daddy.
“Tell me Hailey, who’s the father of that baby?” daddy asked frowning at me.
“What?” I wondered what he said.
“I ask you, who is the father?”
Oh, God!
It’s been almost three months since something happened to me.
“HAILEY!” Fuck, what should I say to daddy? I shouldn’t say strangers or say I’ve been raped.
I would be ashamed if I told them the truth.
But if I don’t speak, daddy might kill me because I got pregnant without a father. I ruin his name. And for sure he doesn’t let me give him a bastard grandchild. He has always said before that he can accept any man I choose. Even if it’s a garbage man as long as it will stand by my side.
“D-dad,” I stammered calling him. “I do–”
“I am the father of the child.” Daddy and I looked at Eugene at the same time.
What does Eugene say?
“You?” daddy asked Eugene then looked at me. “Is it true Hailey?” Even before I could answer, Eugene spoke again.
“Please forgive my audacity but I’m ready to marry Ley.” What the fuck is he saying? “I am willing to stand for my child.” Dad looks at Eugene before he spoke. But I don’t see any reaction from Eugene aside from his serious face.
“Right away, kid. Because otherwise maybe tomorrow or the next day, your father won’t be in position.” Dad threatens Eugene, no, it’s called a warning.
“Yes, I’ll talk to my parents later.” Dax looked straight at me.
“Good, then from now on just call me dad. C’mon, son, let’s celebrate this blessing.” Daddy hugged Eugene and they left the room together.
I touched my stomach and then I just noticed that my stomach was a bit hard.
Is there really a baby here inside?
But I don’t know who’s your father? I didn’t even know if you are a child of a criminal. But I can’t kill you either because you’re already inside of me.
Who is your father?
I SAW EUGENE’s teary eyes when he entered my room. He shut the door and sat beside me.
“Ley.” He held my shoulder and touch my belly.
Is it Eugene?
Was he the one who made me those?
Shall I ask him?
What if he didn’t, I might be embarrassed in front of him when he found out the truth.
“I’m sorry if I took your baby.” My question was also answered because of what he said. “But Ley, you’ve been with me for a long time, and based on your reaction earlier, you have no plans to say who’s the father of your baby. I knew your dad and he will definitely kill your baby if he doesn’t get what he wants to know.”
I faced Eugene while crying.
“Fuck, Ley, are you cried?” he asked with concern.
“No, I just put saliva on my eyes as if I am crying.” He laughed at my answer and then wiped my tears. “Why did you do that?” He sighs then looked at me.
“Nothing, why?”
“You don’t need to do that, you can back out now before I change my mind and admit to daddy the truth.”
“Your a hard-headed pregnant. I just want to be able to make up my mind and give direction to my life when I have a baby,” he said then looked at my stomach.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
“But this baby is not yours?”
“I know, probably, Ley, nothing happened to us even if you force me to abuse you. Now tell me, who is the father? I won’t raise a murderer’s child, right? Besides, I saw that you hesitate to tell who is the father so meaning, the father doesn’t want to accept his baby or maybe you don’t want him to know that he’s going to have a child.”
When he said that, I couldn’t stop crying.
