Claiming her babies

NICHOLAS POV

I could see her trembling and I wondered if I’d been played all along. “So this was your plan, right? You just signed the contract and pretended to be pregnant right?” I glared at her as she avoided my gaze in every way possible.

“No. I didn’t do any of these. I’m pregnant and I’m sure of it”

“Then how do you explain the result?” I asked furiously.

“I don’t know but I’m surprised and shocked as you,” she replied and began sobbing in front of me.

“That’s all you do. Cry like someone is beating you” I yelled as I rose to my feet in anger and paced up and down the room and she instantly went mute but still sobbed silently.

The silence in the doctor’s office was very deafening and I looked over at the doctor who shifted uncomfortably in his seat. I knew he wasn’t comfortable with the silence and dead stare I kept throwing his way.

“You” I pointed at him and walked towards him. “If I ever find out that this result is false, keep in mind that you will lose your job” I warned with a firm tone, maintaining strong eye contact with him

“Get up and let’s go” I ordered the lady who still wasn’t done crying as I stormed to the door and walked out of the doctor’s office. “Take those clothes off and leave,” I said the moment I entered my house. No one deceives me and goes Scott-free.

“What!” She exclaimed in shock.

“Go upstairs, wear those rags you first wore when you came to my house, drop these clothes you wore to the hospital, and leave” I ordered again and walked out on her but what I didn’t expect was her next action.

“Please sir, you have to believe me. I’m not lying about being pregnant and I never lied” She grabbed my leg tightly and that halted my movement.

“Get your filthy hands off my pants,” I said with an ear-piercing scream but she just held me tighter.

“Please just listen to me. I’m not lying”

“I didn’t ask for any explanation and I don’t need your explanation. Leave my house” I said but she still didn’t let me go “Are you deaf or something? Are my words too difficult to understand ”

“I don’t have anywhere to go. This is the only safe place for me and my child. Please don’t do this. I promise to do anything you want but don’t throw me out please” Her words melted my angry side a little and I looked at her in pity.

If she wasn’t pregnant, she wouldn’t have wanted to talk to me in the first place and if she was lying, she wouldn’t have had that confidence to follow me to the hospital. Judging from the first place I saw her, she may have nowhere to go I thought in my mind and I made a huge decision that I won’t be making on a normal day but she just seemed to get my sympathy.

“You can stay here until I’m tired of seeing your face”

“Thank you so much. Thank you” Her loud and rough voice made me realize that she was crying all this while and might have even stained my pants with her tears. This made me instantly shake my legs violently from her grip and just as I thought, her wet tears were all over my sky blue pants.

“Don’t come close to me again and for the thank you, you’re welcome. Know that you won’t be staying in my house for free. You will work as long as you’re staying under my roof” I further explained and I could see her puffy blue eyes stare at me in confusion.

“But I’m pregnant and can’t do heavy jobs like_” she uttered.

“And who is talking about doing heavy jobs?” I asked, cutting her words short. “Don’t forget you promised to do anything I want”

“So what do you want?” She asked as she nervously played with her fingers.

“I haven’t decided yet but when I think of something, I’ll let you know but for now, anything I tell you to do, you do without questioning me. Is that understood?” I asked.

“Yes sir” I smiled at her reply and I can’t lie how it feels good to be in control.

“Firstly, we have to cancel the contract” I saw her face drop in sadness and that made me frown. “Why that look? I’m not the one who lied about being pregnant”

“I didn’t lie about _”

“I don’t want to hear it” I uttered instantly, interrupting her from speaking any further. “Go to your room and when I need you, I’ll call you” “Permit me to ask a question”

“What is it?” I asked Anthony who sat at my right-hand side in my study.

“Why are you canceling the contract and how do you intend to look for a better way to keep the company and prevent it from going to Greg’s hands”

“I’m still thinking of a better way but be rest assured that I’ll never allow my stepbrother to take over my father’s company,” I said confidently.

“But you do know that he is also your father’s son”

“I don’t care about that. He and his mother are the reason Dad left me and Mum. My mother died of a heart attack when she realized that my Dad had another bastard son somewhere. I can’t forgive Greg and his mother for_”

“You called me sir” The blonde-haired lady walked into the room, interrupting me and Anthony’s discussion and that pissed me so much.

“Let this be a strong warning that should be printed in your brain. Never you walk into my room without knocking again” I uttered coldly.

“I’m sorry about that sir” she whispered, her voice barely above a whisper but I heard her.

“Mrs Knight” Anthony uttered in shock as he looked at the lady who also stared back at him in shock. “What are you doing here?”

“You two know each other?” I asked as I stared at Anthony who stared at the blonde lady in shock but something clicked in my brain and Anthony words rang continuously in my mind. “Mrs Knight? Wait, she is married?” I thought to myself.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
