I stood there in shock looking at the message on my phone as shivers run down my spine. It's been almost a year since my dad passed away and his death was very mysterious and the police couldn't even investigate anything about this situation.I got another message that said “it was someone related to your dad that killed him” My body began to tremble and I became overwhelmed. I began to sit and think I didn't really know what to do at this point and if these text messages are true I can finally catch the person who killed my father and my dad will have justice.My phone began to ring and I saw it was Caden calling I haven't really talked to Caden in a long time I was to overwhelmed with this information I just got so I didn't pick his calls I sat on my bed and I was thinking of what to do and minutes later I heard a knock on my door.In a deep bass voice “Hey Ruby I know you're upset with me allow me to explain myself please Ruby” Caden said knocking on my door.My heart melted hear
I stood there with a pen in my hand. My hands trembling as I carefully read the contract on the table in front of me."NO RUBY! You don't have to do this Ruby, we can find another way" My mother stood beside me and begged me with her tone of voice filled with desperation."Mom you know that dad put his life into this restaurant and we can't lose it even if it means me signing myself away and it's just for a year so don't worry mum." I sighed, feeling overwhelmed and desperate. I hesitantly signed the contract and my mother began to cry.I turned to hug her and wrapped my hands around her as her face was bowed, tears dripping from her eyes. I too wanted to cry but I just had to be strong."Don't worry mum I will not disappoint you" Then before I knew what was happening one of the tall dark-skinned bodyguards came from behind me and grabbed me by my arm with all his force, his heavy muscles hurting my soft hand."Ouch! You're hurting me" I said as I turned to look at him in his black su
"SOMEONE PLEASE CALL AN ABUNDANCE!" I yelled at the top of my voice, my eyes widened in shock. I went on my knees in fear before Tiffany came and rushed towards Jasper and slapped my hand away from him."You bitch you did this to him and you don't have any right to touch him!" Tiffany yelled and gave me an evil look."He is my husband, what do you mean?" I replied feeling so confused and overwhelmed everything just happened so fast.Before you know it, the Ambulance arrived and the EMT came in and rushed Jasper in the Ambulance but then I was stopped by one of the EMTs. "Sorry Miss but only one family member at a time.""Bu…but I'm his wife" I stammered my whole body trembling, Tiffany pushed me out of the way and entered the ambulance "What are you waiting for? Let's go" and then shut the door and drove off.I just stood there in confusion before I heard yelling behind me. "Oh my son Ruby what happened?" Jasper's father asked, his face looking sweaty with a worried look on his face.
Her words hit my chest very hard "What do you mean by that?" I asked my heart racing with fear."Oh don't act dumb now, you heard what I said" Tiffany replied, her voice smooth and silky which sent shivers down my spine. This woman is very crazy."You and I know that Jasper deserves better, he deserves someone like me and not a lower-class girl like you, and I promise you if you don't leave I will continue to make your life a living hell" Tiffany said in her charming voice.I put on a brave face and said "You don't scare me you know, I don't even want anything to do with Jasper I'm just here to do something and I'm not backing out now not even you will stop me" in a firm tone.She began to move closer towards me "Well then get ready to live a miserable life Ruby" she said, and then all of a sudden she began to cry and scream."AHH! Ruby, what the hell is wrong with you, why… Why did you hit me?"Suddenly Jasper came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist "What the h
Caden gently opened the results and he glanced at them and he looked at me with a sad look on his face.“What is it? What does it say?” I asked as I began to panic. My body began to shiver and I had goosebumps all over my hands. “Cad…Caden, What's going on with you?” I stammered looking at Caden's sad face.“Ruby I know you're not gonna like this but, you're gonna want to sit down for this one” Caden said in a deep gentle calm voice and he put his hands on my shoulders and pressed me to sit down on the chair nearby.“How are you so calm? What do the results say?” Before I could ask any more questions Caden put his hand over my mouth.“You're carrying my child Ruby” Caden said in a calm tone, his hands sweaty as he moved closer to me.I sat there in shock and short of words, what was going to happen now how would Jasper react if he found out I was pregnant for his stepbrother? I looked up at Caden still in shock as shivers went down my spine “So what are we gonna do now?”“Come on let
Jasper looked at me in shock “I'm sorry but what did you say?” as he gently let go of my hand.I just realised what I had said and I began to panic.“Ruby! Did you just say you're pregnant?” Jasper looked at me with regret in his eyes and he stepped back.Seconds later Tiffany came out of the bathroom “Ahh this bitch is still here send her away already Jasper” Tiffany came rushing towards me and she raised her hand to slap me again Jasper held her hand.“That's enough Tiffany Ruby is pregnant” Jasper roared his voice deepTiffany looked at me in disgust and disbelief “She's lying she's not pregnant she just said that so she will not face her punishments” Tiffany said nagging.“I am pregnant, I'm pregnant for Jasper and that's why I vomited on your face I was feeling nauseous” I lied I didn't want Jasper to know that he isn't the father of my child and even worse if he really knew who the father was.I stood there, my hands sweaty, my body trembling, afraid that Tiffany might ruin ever
I stood there in shock “Wait what's going on?” Then I saw Tiffany standing behind Jasper and then I knew she was behind all this.“Jasper you can't just stand there and do nothing, you know I would never do such a thing” Before I could do anything the office grabbed my hand roughly.“You have the right to remain silent,” the police officer said as he dragged me to the police car.Caden roared in a deep voice “Hey be careful with her she's pregnant” Jasper turned to look at Caden “Yes I know she's pregnant with my child Caden but how do you know?”Caden looked at Jasper with rage in his eyes “Well brother I'm not as dumb as you and I'm not as stupid as you it's obvious she's pregnant.”Tiffany began to laugh “Was she vomiting on your face too?” Tiffany said sarcasticallyCaden ignored Tiffany and looked at Jasper “So you're just gonna stand there and watch them take your pregnant wife away” Caden asked Jasper aggressively.Jasper became very furious with what Caden said and turned to
Waking up my vision was still very blurry. I saw myself in a hospital bed with a drip in my hand. I tried to sit up on the bed but I was feeling too weak. “Wh…what happened?”“Hey there relax you are still recovering,” A deep voice said as I felt someone touch my handand I could swear I heard Caden's voice.I shut my eyes again and rested back in the bed and then minutes later I woke you to loud noises.“But she is under police custody!” one voice screamed.“She is lying in the hospital bed unconscious,” another voice yelled.Minutes later an average-height light-skinned doctor entered the room.“Good morning Mrs Ruby, how are you feeling today?” The doctor asked with a smile on his face.My vision has not fully cleared but I was able to respond to the doctor “Erm… I am fine, I just feel a little lightheaded, that's all.” “Okay you were just stressed out and it really affected you, especially for the fact you are pregnant,” the doctor said before leaving the room“Doctor wait! How is
