I couldn't find anything straight to think on how to say to Damon that it's not true because I couldn't fake it. My emotion on my face right now is probably obvious. I couldn't speak or say anything about it because I don't know how to lie about this matter.

"I didn't know you two were college lovebirds with Nick cos if I did I would've stopped you earlier from working on Devaloines." He states.

I gulped.

How did he know such information?

"Good thing I had a reliable source. Penny Houston? Yeah, your colleague. She works for me in New York. Kurt spilled it out too, he needed money, so I forced him. That gay." He adds.

I gaped.

My blood boils hearing that bitch's name again and until now she's still ruining my life. Even after college life. I think she really does envy me. Penny, I hate you so much that I couldn't explain how much I hate you. And I hated how Damon causally called Kurt gay to think the three of us have been great friends in college. Kurt even helped him a lot too. The nerve of this guy is too much!

"You may be wondering how'd I know about the father to your baby?" He asked me.

I hate that tone on him.

I couldn't answer him back because he caught me off guard. I'm standing before him with my mouth shut close. Damon is always a genius and I hate it that he's too intelligent, his mind thinks of way I couldn't believe he could even do nor think. I even wondered why he didn't pursue on criminology. He could've been a good investigator or detective.

He smirks and points to his temple.

"I'm a genius Savannah. I love solving things and you know that." He tells me.

I feel my tears gathering in my eyes because I'm getting so mad at him. He's saying things that are true and I hate it that he's rubbing it on my face.

"It was pretty simple. The bartender at the hotel on your bachelorette's party. That bar?" He snapped.

Oh god. Oh my goodness no. I'm sure he paid the bartender to say anything he needs to know about that night. Shit, I could still vaguely remember what I said that time. Jesus.

"Counted the months back when you had your first trimester and it all led to that party. I knew it had to be on that party. Caught you on CCTV again with Nick entering another hotel room. And you fucked each other all fucking night." He says and my heart breaks into billions of pieces.

My lips are trembling and I'm too embarrassed of what he found out. It's true. Yes it is but hearing it coming from Damon makes me worst of a wife than what he has been doing to me. He's physically hurting me but I'm emotionally hurting him.

"I'm right on everything, right? Or did I miss out something from the juicy details?" He asked me.

I shake my head in disbelief of what he said to me. I couldn't dare look into his eyes. It's too much. This is too much.

"You know, it was pretty hard on my part during the Stag party cos all I ever thought of was you so I tried to stop myself from getting tempted of the naked women before me. But you." He walks closer to me.

"You simply fucked a guy days before your wedding and got yourself pregnant. What a bitch." He adds and looks at me disgustingly.

"Shut up." I spit.

I quickly wiped my tears away and I feel so tiny of myself. But Nick and I made the baby with love and I don't blame myself that Damon couldn't get me pregnant. I didn't expect Nick would get me pregnant that night. I don't regret that night anyway, it was the best of all nights after being away from him. But you couldn't stop me from feeling so guilty of what I've done behind Damon's back and guilty for not telling Nick the truth about our child.
