A Trillionaire’s Revenge

He finally steps down from the stairs and we are face to face. I look away, closing my eyes as soon as I see his red watery eyes. Next thing, I'm being dragged by him up the stairs. I don't utter a word. He flings me into what I suppose is his room rather violently. I want to scream at him, and remind him that I'm carrying his child in my womb, but I ignore. "I can explain." is the first thing I'm able to say.

He begins to shake, as he points his finger at me. "How many times did it happen?" I try moving closer to him, but he barks at me, almost making me tremble. "If you woul—he interposes, "Shut up!" He continues, "You are so loose, Natalie. You. . . are. . .no less than a prostitute." He says, leaving me stunned and heartbroken.

"Lu. . . Lucas." I whisper, unable to control the tears rolling down my eyes. I gasp as he begins to throw things around. "I know it was wrong, I know I should've told you the very first time I saw him around us, but— He begins to yell, "But what? You were too busy making a fool of me? Reuniting with your boyfriend behind my back?! Under my roof, Natalie?"

I nod profusely, "No, no, nothing ever happened, Luke, I swear! I always told him to leave, believe me, I did, but-

"Shut it!" He yells. I kneel on the floor, and I begin to sob. This was what I feared from the beginning. The worst was happening now, and although I knew things weren't going to end well, a greater part of me still wanted to believe that Luke and I could still settle things. I look at him once more, and my heart shatters into pieces as I realize that he's crying too.

"Was it all a lie? I wondered why you were so quick to fall in love with me, I thought it was strange but I chose to believe you, Natalie!" He says as he punches the door.

"Nothing was a lie, everything I said from after I got discharged from the hospital was nothing but the truth!"

"Bastard. That's what you are." He says, but I ignore and I continue, hoping he sees reason with me. "I need you to believe me, just one last time, Luke." I sob, my palms folded. "Please. . ." I beg.

"Nothing you say, would ever make me believe you, Natalie. You're just as terrible as your mother is. No, you're worse than she is."

"I'm nothing like her, I was never after your money!" I say, as I get up, still sobbing.
