Chapter 80
Chase’s eyes went into fury. He stood up and provoked her the more “If my payment was not enough, just like my dick was never enough to satisfy you in bed, you should have haggled about it.
You should have told me that since you usually wear me out, I should always compensate you for being the victorious one. You shouldn’t have adopted this cheap method to get more money from me…” he sneered at her.
Rosalinda’s eyes went teary. She was breathing heavily and it seemed difficult. She couldn’t find her voice, she felt her eyes were getting dizzy and she carefully sat down, placing her head between her palm.
He took her for a prostitute. He thinks she’s sleeping with him for money? He thinks she’s a casual woman and he humiliates her with his words.
He called their child a mistake. He really said she’s adopted a cheap method to extort him? His words to her that moment were heavier than the ones he said the previous day.
Her chest was moving up and down in such a usual rhythm that she was afraid to think that her blood pressure was going overboard.
“I am not the father of your baby. I cannot birth a child through a cheap, loose woman like you. The only woman who can bear my child must be a virgin, a woman whose entire sexual life begins with me and alone for me.
So I suggest you think very well and give that bastard to any one of your numerous clients. I am not the father of that bastard..” Chase yelled.
Rosalinda’s eyes went moist afresh. Her tears cascaded down her chin. She sniffled and with difficulty said “It’s alright Chase. It’s all my fault. It was a mistake on my part. You are not the father, okay?”
Her voice choked and she felt like fainting. She gently placed her head on the table and heard Chase’s last utterance before he stepped out “That’s better for us both. And remember do not come to me in few months time with a bastard child”
When Chase walked out, he shut the door behind him loudly. She sighed softly. Glad he’s left her, she cannot stand any of his humiliation any more.
Rosalinda had enough time, alone sobbing loudly. She placed her hand on her belly and sobbed more. She wouldn’t come to see him again, no, she wouldn’t try it.
Her pregnancy was still in its first trimester and it would be 13 weeks old by the next day. She never thought Chase Hudson would say those words to her.
She had thought he would be happy that she was pregnant. That they were going to have the child they conceived in love. But alas, he didn’t just deny it, he said she’s a whore in a more dignified way.
He thinks so of her because she wasn’t a virgin when they met. It’s true, she’s not. He was the second man in her life and she thought he would be the last. Looks like she’s not destined to be loved by any man.
But she easily falls in love and when she does, she gives it her all without a reservation. That’s what happened between her and Chase.
She sobbed and after regaining a little of her strength, she went to the washroom, and washed her face. She walked out and appeared to be alright.
She was feeling a little hungry. She hasn’t had a decent meal that day. He couldn’t even offer her a glass of water. He invited her over to trample on her womanhood.
She took her bag and walked out. She walked groggily and went to her car. But she couldn’t drive. Her mind was in disarray and she called Mike “Come and pick me at the Samson and Delilah’s hotel”
When Chase returned to the office, he was in disarray. She can’t possibly think of keeping the pregnancy, right? He’s not ready for a child and definitely not from her.
Jace Hudson invited him over to his office and he went. His countenance was in disarray but decided not to tell his brother. If he does, he would force him to accept the child.
“You look gloomy. Is everything alright?” Jace asked. Chase is always this cheerful guy. When things take a different turn, it’s always obvious on his facial expression.
“It’s nothing. Just having issues with my girlfriend” Chase replied flippantly. He sat down and glared at his brother.
“Well, having numerous women means having numerous problems. Since it’s your personal problem, you’ll manage it yourself” Jace declared.
Chase massaged the bridge between his eyes. Thank goodness he didn’t say anything about the real issue with his brother. He definitely would impose Rosalinda on him for the pregnancy’s sake.
Meanwhile, Jace Hudson continued “I received a notification that Richard Delmark had resigned” he announced.
Chase glared at his brother in surprise. He thought he and Jace had patched things up. He really did as he had threatened?
“Was it because of what happened that day at the hospital?” Chase asked. He knew he was mad with Jace and said he is the reason why Arianna’s life was in danger.
“I don’t know. But then, Arianna and I are lovers now and she’s eventually accepted me as her boyfriend. He can’t still hold a grudge against me, right?” Jace Hudson declared.
“I’ll talk to him,” Chase declared.
“He’ll be here soon. I’ve invited him for a talk” Jace declared. His mind flashed back to what Arianna had done and his eyes turned dark.
