CHAPTER 65 :- Nauseous.Lucy wakes up, feeling the wet towel on her forehead. She lifts herself into a sitting position, taking the towel off and looking around, she found Mrs Townsend fast asleep beside her.A smile left her lips... Watching Mrs Townsend right now, gives her a sense of Hope and comfort. It feels like her mother has been the one taking care of her.The love of a mother from Mrs Townsend keeps emanating and feels her and she kinda misses her mother.. Not just her mother, but her Dad too.Mrs Townsend opened her eyes and as she saw Lucy seated upright, she panicked and began to feel her temperature. "Why are you up dear? You should still get some rest? Do you still feel dizzy? " Lucy's eyes brimmed with tears.. Her lips quivered as she tried to fight back her tears.Mrs Townsend noticed her tears and wipes then off her face."No, no dear.. Don't cry now! Is it still about Mark? "Lucy shakes her head negatively and blinked her eyes as more tears kept rolling down her
Lucy's hands shook as she stared at the test rube in her hands. So many times this past few moments, she kept shutting her eyes and opening them back, wishing the results from the test tube would change but it was just there, staring right back at her.The double red lines on the test tubes cane like a bomb blast to her. She didn't want to believe, maybe its just her eyesight having issues and maybe the test tube is faulty.She can't be pregnant, she really can't be!! Not with all of this catastrophies going on between her and Mark. Not when Mark already broke up with her, would he believe her? Would the pregnancy make him reconsider his decisions?Mrs Townsend was right. The signs she keeps experiencing were those of pregnancy. So many thoughts raced through her head, yet again.. She didn't want to believe! She'd only believe once this is whole thing is confirmed by a doctor, only then will she believe a mere test tube and if luck rains on her and it turns out negative, she'd be at
Few days passed and Lucy's efforts were futile. There was nothing she could do right now. Mark's number isn't going through, he wasn't reply any of her texts either.It felt like he has completely shut her off his life. Can he really live like this? Without speaking or calling to check up on her?He already sent her resignation letter, like seriously, he meant every word he said!! Mark's attitude really surprised her alot as she least expected that from him. Tho he fired her already but she still keeps in touch with the receptionist at the company and she informs her of everything that keeps happening at the company and how Mark keeps getting angry over every slightly thing.She knows that won't happen if it wasn't because of her. He's venting out his anger on those poor employees who had nothing to do with what happened.Lucy turned away from the mirror when her cellphone buzzed loudly. Reaching out for it, she puts on a smile on her face while swiping the answer button to the right
"I'm sorry Ma'am, but you can't go in" The security man in Mark's home stood in Lucy's path as she tried to go in. They have both been on this issue for over 10 minutes and he would not let her pass through the gate.Lucy would have listened to him and simply walk away but what she's here for us pretty much important and she can't just turn back and leave. Mark is in there, that she knows for sure."I'm warming you for the last time, let me through the gates and of you try to stop me, I'm going to call the police and accuse you of assault... " That was convincing enough. She pushed the security man off her path and he didn't try to stop her. Meanwhile, Mark stood by the window in his room, holding a glass of wine in his hands as he watched Lucy battle with his security man whom he had strictly warned not to let her into his home anymore.He knew Lucy would not back down and she would do everything to get Through.He turned away from the window and placed the wine glass down then wa
Lucy pulled over beside the bridge. She got down and stood by the edge of the bridge, her emotions welling up inside her and she couldn't help but let it all out."Ahhh! I hate you Mark,!! I hate you so much" She yelled loudly, bursting into tears.She let her tears roll freely as she poured out all her emotions. She was tired, upset and frustrated about this whole thing turned out to be.She expected mark to be different but he was far worst than the others. Austin was right in everything.. Mark's Ex girlfriend Bea's right in everything she said at he mall that day.They were all right and she was wrong. they'd warned her but she didn't listen and choose to follow her stupid heart to love a man who doesn't love her and only wanted her for his selfish gains.Maybe she's so unlucky or cursed not to find true love. It is so easy for others but pretty difficult for her.Same way Austin had hurt her in the past now Mark did the worst thing ever. Why didn't he use protection? Now she's pre
Mark squints his eyes at his mother's words, obviously confused if she meant what she said... " What? You're kidding mother""It's obvious I have no water in my mouth right now. You caused everything Son and no son of mine would turn his back on a woman. She's pregnant with your child son and you're going to take responsibility for that? "" No, no, no.. " Mark ranted, turning around and punching the table behind him as hard as he could. "Don't do this mother. For all I know, that child isn't mine! I can't be the father of that thing in her tommy... "" Shut that trap you call a mouth Mark!! " Mrs Townsend thundered.. Lucy just stood and sobbed quietly. The words she's hearing is too harsh and it keeps hurting her. She'd have ran away to avoid hearing more of that but Mrs Townsend held her hand in hers so she couldn't leave."How dare you call an innocent child a thing? Do you have no conscience at all son!! If this was the way your father referred to you as a thing, would you have b
That night, Mark returned home hoping his mother would have left with Lucy but he was wrong. Who was he to think that his mother would do such a thing. He could still see her car parked right beside his other car and it got him really furious..He stumped into his home and straight to his room because he knows that's exactly where his mother would ask her to be.He forced the door open and barged in. Just like he predicted, she was lying peacefully on his bed, fast asleep and snoring lightly.He moved close to her, with his fists folding tightly.As he stared at her, his anger kept increasing. How dare her sleep on his bed? Under whose permission?He tapped her roughly, trying to wake her up. Meanwhile, Lucy who was having her peaceful sleep got disturbed when she felt a strong tap on her shoulder. It was a bit painful though and she opened her eyes slightly even though she already knows who that is.She sat up, rubbing her eyes and yawing loudly. She's so tired and needs to sleep b
Lucy stopped eating when she heard a low grunt. She turned towards the direction, to see Mark stretching out his limbs and becoming fully awake.Their gaze met as he sat up and after some moments of glaring at each other, she averted her gaze first and kept on eating."If you're hungry, there's some at the kitchen, you can fetch some yourself" Lucy said without looking at him.She could still feel his burning gaze on her and after a while, he stood up and began to walk towards her.Lucy found it hard to gulp down her food with each step he took. She got tensed, knowing fully well that he was definitely up to something.What is he going to do now? Start another argument? For heaven's sake, she's really not in the mood for any of those.She still didn't look at him even as he stood right beside her, she slowly kept chewing on her bread.She hears a low snort from him and what followed was an unexpected action from him.. He threw the plates away carelessly, making them shatter to pieces
