INICIAR SESIÓNEight months into my pregnancy, my husband finally makes time from his police duties to go to a prenatal checkup with me for the first time. The moment we step into the hospital, his satellite-encrypted phone buzzes urgently. The caller ID flashes briefly, and just like that, the man who's always calm and collected panics. "Honey, it's a red alert. Another international fugitive just crossed the border. I… I'm sorry…" He's clearly anxious, yet his tone is firm, leaving no room for argument. After apologizing, he rushes off. As I watch his SUV speed out of sight, my fist clenches tightly, crumpling the prenatal checkup sheet. I flag down a cab, slide into the car, and swiftly instruct the driver, "Follow that car. Don't lose it." A Red Notice for a fugitive? What a joke. My father, who works at the National Security Agency, barely catches wind of a notice like that. Yet, somehow, a mere police chief who only assists with cases is suddenly tasked with catching a high-priority criminal. Fine, then. I can't wait to meet the superior who's given him such an urgent assignment.
Ver más"Robbie, I-I am pregnant" I gathered all my courage in the last fifteen days to just speak out this words but I was not prepared for his response.
"So, what am I supposed to do?" Robbie looked at me with eyes full of disdain.
"It-it is" I got choked on my words. I didn't know what to say. He is going to totally overlook what happened between us? He is not going to acknowledge this child which is his too. Am I seriously going to be thrown off like some garbage.
"It what?" he asked in a steely voice, his grey eyes sharp enough to cut through iron.
The voice terrified me. I couldn't answer. I was tongue
tied. Why on earth am I such a coward? Damnit! Why did I ever submitted myself to him? I am such a fool.. I knew he was just a player and still... What should I do now? I am only 17. My family has already abandoned me and now him too.
Why is the world so unfair? What kind of crime did I commit to suffer through this? My eyes were stinging with tears which were welling up in my eyes. The pain and sorrow was choking me. I can't speak. I don't wanna see his face. I don't want to see anyone anymore. Damnit! Damnit all!
I turned around to dash out but then I heard a voice speak to me in a mocking tone
"What happened? You came to beg for money. Why are you running off now? Too ashamed to ask for it? Don't worry, I don't mind giving it to you. Get an abortion. Don't push this headache on me" >
What?
Money? What will I do with his filthy money?
Will his money stop the mouth which are going to chatter around claiming me to be some sort of man whore?
Will those disgusting notes turn my life back to a normal
one?
0.98%
Will those nasty cash give me the treatment I deserve as
a human?
It was so funny that all this Alphas think that throwing
money could solve everything.
I couldn't take it anymore. I let the tears fall freely down my cheeks dropping on my t-shirt. I started laughing. ! wondered if I have lost my mind.
I saw Robbie's expression change. His grey eyes showed surprise. He asked me in astonishment.
"Have you lost it?"
"I guess I have" I laughed out trying to hold back the bitterness I felt deep down. "It is funny to see that you think those bund of notes will mend my life. Ha ha, hahahaha
I continued laughing. It hurts. It hurts so bad that I could have killed myself. I saw Robbie's smooth face grimace like he was the one in pain. How utterly funny! He will lose nothing after destroying my life. He will continue having his family, money, reputation, and hundreds of suitors for him. And me? Ha ha ha...What a stark contrast!
I looked at Robbie straight in the eyes. He had his teeth gritted and was looking at me with some complex emotion that I couldn't comprehend with my current mental state. His image was blurring in front of me as I stared.
I smiled. It had to be the most painful smile I ever gave
"Your money could buy you every luxury in the world Robbie. But you see, I AM NOT FOR SALE. You can keep those filthy money to yourself. I don't need a share. Maybe, in future it will buy you love too">
I turned around and left. I didn't want to see his face. again. I didn't want anything anymore. I just want to get away from this town. Go where I don't have to meet my
past again.
That day, I decided to be stronger for myself and my baby. I won't bow down to this miserable fate of mine. I will fight to the bitter end!
Fate finally smiled on us. Just two weeks later, Edward tracked down our precious Jonah to a remote fishing village. The DNA test confirmed a 99% match—he was my son.I cried all night, leaving my eyes swollen the next morning. I couldn't wait for Edward to bring Jonah home.Just as we stepped out the door to welcome Jonah back, we ran into Harvey. He looked haggard, dirty, and lifeless.When he saw me, his expression flickered with a mix of regret, resentment, and grief. He staggered toward me and, in a desperate gesture, collapsed onto his knees before my feet.Dad didn't hesitate to kick him away. "This is your last warning, Harvey. Get out of here and stop harassing my daughter!"The bodyguards nearby soon surrounded Harvey, ready to drag him away, but I raised a hand to stop them."Dad…"After six long years of entanglement, I felt there ought to be closure between Harvey and me. Dad understood what I meant and quietly stepped away, giving us space.Across from me, Harvey
Dad had gotten white strands of hair overnight.I didn't ask any more questions. Maybe it was better that the baby was gone. That way, I had finally severed all my ties to Harvey completely. In the days that followed, I stayed in the hospital to recover. Dad and Edward took turns watching over me, never leaving me alone for a moment.Harvey, of course, tried to come a few times to make his presence known, but he never managed to get anywhere near me.Even when he tried to break in through the window in the middle of the night, the bodyguards Edward had hired didn't hesitate to toss him out the window from the fourth floor.During the two months I spent recovering, I never saw him again. It wasn't until the day I was discharged, when Dad and Edward escorted me to the car, that I caught sight of a familiar figure across the street.Harvey stood silently in the rain, a baseball cap on his head. He had grown so thin that he was barely recognizable.He stood still in the downpour, h
"Commissioner Walker, I swear things aren't as they seem! It's just that Sadie can be overly headstrong sometimes, and I was only trying to take the edge off her! "I didn't intend to actually hurt her… Oh, and I would've sent her to the hospital regardless of whether you came—"Before Harvey could finish, Dad gave him a brutal kick that sent him crashing to the floor. "You piece of shit! Who are you to discipline my daughter?"I could tell Dad's eyes had turned red from holding back his tears. Sensing that my condition was deteriorating quickly, he shot Harvey one final warning. "You bastard. If anything happens to Sadie or the baby, I swear you won't walk out of here alive!"He carried me and turned to leave.I ignored the whispers and gasps around me. Instead, I swept my gaze over Chelsea, Marilyn, and every single person who had hurt me."Just you wait," I muttered coldly. "I'll come back and settle the score for every single thing you did to me today."With that, Dad carrie
As soon as those words rang out, the door to the villa was kicked open with a bang. A team of bodyguards in black suits stormed in, their faces cold and uncompromising.At the sound of the commanding voice, everyone in the room went pale.Chelsea and Marilyn were equally shocked and froze on the spot. They tried to turn around and look at the uninvited guests, only to find a bodyguard holding them at gunpoint.The bodyguards hurried forward, forming a protective circle around me. In a few swift moves, they restrained the men trying to strip me.Then, the lead bodyguard swept his eyes across the room, his sharp gaze finally landing on Harvey.Harvey's expression fell in an instant. He glared down at me as I lay slumped on the floor, his voice dripping with fury. "What are you playing at this time, Sadie? Haven't you done enough? Who the hell are these people?"I sat silently, wrapped in the bodyguard's jacket for cover. I stared past Harvey at the figure slowly walking in. At the
