Chapter 296 - His Own Flesh!
"You are taking my words wrong! I never said that!" Olivia told but Lucas shrugged his shoulders after hearing the comment.
"Grandfather will only yell at me. After knowing what I have done.. to get a lady pregnant, he will only burst over my head. How am I supposed to face the others.. when they all believe that I have married that Jennifer or.. at least.."
"At last she is your fiance and bride to be." Olivia corrected and completed his words to which he nodded his head.
At the end of the day, they were in the covered mess when one situation connected with another, putting much pressure on another as well.
Taking a deep breath, Olivia just managed to bring her hands around her ears and massage them. Her heart was on the edge of bursting since she knew that this will only worsen her condition.
'Why is God testing my patience?' Whenever she feels that she is the sole one for him, one or another bomb is dropped over. Earlier it was his marriage and now… this child
"Lucas, you know… This wasn't what I had expected out of you." And for the very first time, she expressed her displeasure. This wasn't intentional but the words slipped out of her mouth on their own.
The feelings she tried to ignore and act ignorant towards them, were now slowly dying with the passing time and his every action. 'Knowing I'm not your favorite makes me.. only show you how much you are wrong....'.
Only if she could complete her mission and leave the man with nothing in his hands, will he understand her importance?
Without glancing at her, Lucas's teeth gritted against each other after hearing her ears. "I wasn't depressed like this either. If.. it was you, then it would have been much better."
"Me? Lucas, what would have I done with this child then? Name It as an illegitimate child one as if you marry me, then you can't marry Jennifer!" Knowing temperament, if he is even willing to exchange Jennifer with the ruby which he had kidnapped from his mother's closet, then he can get his hands over anything which he wishes to.
After all, if he doesn't care about his mother's only and sole status, what would he even care about his child?
Yet her question seemed to make him already frustrated. But his eyes turned cold in anger and fury that looked over his head.
"You are correct. I would have married anyone else. But I will find this woman and ask her to abort the child for the money. I don't want the child and this is for sure. Or, in the worst case.." Lucas stood on his toes while walking closer to her.
Coming near her figure, he trapped her in between his hard chest and the wall behind her. Staring into her eyes as if they were her deep of the sea, Olivia felt the chill down her spine as the sweat started to trickle down from her head.
"W..what.."
"I will ask my people to kill that woman, to avoid the unwanted people's burden over my head as the responsibilities.."
Without any reason, Olivia wanted to dig the rope for herself and escape his intense gaze over her head. She doesn't know why but just one sentence of his was like carrying millions of daggers and warning signs.
This news… will change him.
"But.. that would be your.. flesh.." She manages to mutter these words but in return, they bring a smirk over his face. "My flesh will be born when I want and from whom I want."
"If it was you when I would once give the thought but now that I know it isn't you, neither Jennifer, then the only way is to get rid of that person." Olivia had no words to say to this.
Despite finding his answer being the most ruthless one ever, she doesn't feel the need for sympathy.
Rather it was very much accepted out of a monster like him who has no hard feelings for anyone.. Neither for his family.
'is born like this just like his family, exactly like his grandfather..' This never made her feel discomfort ness but at the same time she worried, and what surfed was fear and pity.
The fear that the lady who managed to get pregnant with Lucas's child will have to go through unwanted circumstances. Or probably, she is in a better place because she is at least away from him..
'Doesn't know what he will do with the child..' if God wishes, the child will be born but she hopes not because.... no child would like to have a father like Lucas!
He took a few steps back without averting his eyes from her. Making the same eye contact, showed the determination that he carried along within his mind about this turmoil of a situation that arose out of nowhere.
Without further exchange of his words, his legs moved towards the door of the room when he was ready to step out of the room first of all. He came here to talk but he could sense that it gave her unwanted worry as well, something to add to her existing tensions and stress.
She never said a single word but managed to cover up her expressions. Her head rotated on its own to see him leaving but then he halted in the between.
Before absolutely turning, he turned around to stare at her face with the same aloof expression.." Just for your knowledge, tomorrow, it will be muttering in the office."
"You-mean.." Olivia looked extremely confused but he didn't answer immediately.
A frown curved on her head when she couldn't come to the real meaning. "What is tomorrow?"
"The man who will turn things upside down, is coming tomorrow. So, come prepared and sleep well..."
