CHAPTER 26
For a moment I thought this was some kind of joke, but the one I thought was my client keeps talking and when I was beginning to believe it was true, he starts to laugh at which I am even more puzzled because I had no idea what is going on here.
-I’m sorry, it’s just… you looked too anxious so I thought it would be good to play a joke on you to relax you. But I think I managed to scare you off instead.
-Well, -I swear by the holiest thing I have that I felt like kicking you out of my house -I’m not used to this kind of pranks so ….
-Relax. -He pats my back. -Let’s talk business.
I was just finishing explaining to my new client what we could change some structures when Stacy knocks asking if we had ordered pizza. I was about to answer no when my client, Lucio replies that he ordered it on his way here.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
We left the office saying we would finish later. He receives the pizza and when I see the same guy from the restaurant I frown as his presence is unnecessary to me.
-How do the women in this house feel? -I kiss her chastely with a smile making her smile in happiness.
-We are fine. -she answers. -I’ll go get some of the lasagna my mother prepared, I’m hungry.
-I told you it’s not good so much fat….
-I can’t hear you.
She leaves so I won’t stop her from eating more fat and that worries me as it could affect her and the baby.
-Beautiful girl, isn’t she? -But believe me, women like her will never be within your reach.
-Do you think so, sir?
-Of course they will. Although I must say that there are assholes who have a perfect woman in their hands, but they are such idiots that they trade her for a slut. -I said and it seems that my words made him angry, “Luckily I had the chance to find Bianca and make her the mother of my children. Ah, Lucio, you are invited to our wedding.
-It will be a magnificent wedding, I have seen the weddings that your family organizes and without a doubt they are the best.
-But I heard that your fiancee was kidnapped when you were about to get married, surely someone doesn’t want to see you together, don’t you think?
-The boy is right, you should be cautious next time.
-Well, how about we continue talking about your project, Lucius. Stacy. Take care of him.
Eros locked himself in his office for an hour and when he came out I heard someone ringing the doorbell, I was about to answer it, but I saw that one of the employees opened it for me, when I got to the foyer I stopped at the foot of the stairs when I saw Leo.
-Ah, Bianca. -The young man says they placed an order here.
-How strange,” I stare at him and then my eyes look at Stacy, “Surely Eros ordered it. You can go ask him.
-Sure.
When Stacy comes upstairs I feel my ex not taking his eyes off me, tired of having his eyes on me I told him to stop looking at me like that.
-I’m sorry, it’s just… you look… different.
-Of course, can’t you see I’m pregnant.
He laughs at my sarcasm and tells me that I really have changed, but ignoring him was better since I didn’t want to engage in a conversation with someone from my past, but he seems to be trying to get me out of the conversation.
-I know you are upset about what I did to you….
-That’s right… How is your mistress? Surely she must be pregnant by now.
-No, no… she can’t have children.
-I guess that’s called karma. Well unlike you, I am pregnant and at any moment my fiance and I will be able to have our daughter isabela with us. She will be born into a rich family and of course with parents who will always love her. And all thanks to you, because if you hadn’t done that to me, I would never have had the chance to meet a real man.
-I heard you were kidnapped.
-Bad weed, never dies.
-You know… I was worried about you.
I hear someone coming over chatting with Leo, his client quickly walks over and grabs the pizza, Leo can’t take his eyes off me and Eros’ client notices.
-How do the women in this house feel? -Eros kisses me chastely with a smile making me grin like a fool.
-We are fine. -He replies. -I’ll go get some of the lasagna my mother made, I’m hungry.
-I told you it’s not good so much fat….
-I can’t hear you!
Getting out of there was the only thing I wanted and now that I am making sure he is leaving, I felt a huge relief as seeing Leo gave me a very bad feeling, it’s like we are not safe being with him, he was not the same as when I knew him when I was a teenager.
It was boring being alone, stacy had to finish with the baby’s room arrangements and Eros was on a business and although I wanted some company I couldn’t interrupt him and ruin his business, it’s what he loves and that’s how I knew him and… I love it when he is working, I love to see him so serious while he is concentrating on his work.
The doorbell rang again at the entrance, I heard someone went to open the door. I sat there watching the garden from the window when an employee handed me a yellow envelope, I asked her where it came from, but she said that when she opened it there was no one outside, but it had my name on it.
I opened it to see what it was “surely it was a surprise from Eros”. When I saw the document inside I froze when I read the title “Full custody”.
It is sent by a lawyer, it is legitimate, tears start to come out of my eyes as I read how it says exactly that I will have no rights over the baby, the more I read the more I feel a pain appear as something slips between my legs. I clench my hands as my screams get louder as I finish reading and see Eros’ signature.
-Bianca!
When I see him enter the kitchen and he tries to touch me I push him angrily.
-Don’t touch me!… AHh!…. -I hold on to the bar….
-Let me help you…
-Because!… You want to take my daughter away from me!
