Even if she wanted to run away, she would need money but she had none, she unconsciously rubbed her stomach as hot tears threatened to flow out her eyes. She would never allow her child to suffer like her or even get into the Blackwood family, she did not want her kids to fight for inheritance or get mocked for being illegitimate. She did not really care if the whole world took for just a mistress, a homewrecker, she really was. No one would care enough to find out the truth of the matter or her side of the story she would be labeled a slut, a homewrecker, trash. More than anything, she did not want her child to bear the title 'illegitimate' therefore she needed an escape route and the sooner she found one, the better for her and her unborn child. While she pondered these things, she did not know when the secretary arrived with the food. "let's have dinner," she heard him say.
She began to open the bag containing the food when Brandon got up from his seat. She did not know if it was because she felt irritated or because she was with child, but the smell of the food wafted into her nose at the same time Brandon arrived, she ran into the bathroom as a wave of nausea hit her. She felt fear grip her heart as she emptied her stomach into the toilet. Her greatest fear had come true. If she had money, she would have gotten herself some contraceptives, she did not know if they were afraid she would run away but they never gave her money and she only left the house when it was time to visit him, she was trapped. May be it was hormonal, may be it was the sudden realization that she was pregnant, trapped and broke but the tears she had been holding back fell.
Brandon was disillusioned for a few seconds but he quickly rushed in after her when he heard her throwing up. He did not know whether to be glad that he was going to have another child or.. he really did not know how to react. 'She may not be pregnant,' he tried to convince himself to calm down by lying to himself but how could she not be pregnant after rolling in the sheets with her repeatedly without protection. This was what his parents wanted, right? More children, since his wife could no longer carry any. Then why was he terrified? That was because, this child would be the evidence of his cheating, he could not deny it even if he wanted to. He had not really thought about all these because she lived in the ancestral home and did not always come out of the house so no one would know, they could even lie that she was adopted by his parents because they were too lonely and needed company.
Right now, things had changed, she was really with child, no matter how spooked he was, he did not let it show as he helped her hold up her hair. He gently patted her back in an attempt to make her feel better. He did not think too much as she sobbed, hitting her chest, he thought she was trying to hold it back, "let it all out, don't try to swallow," he said. But of course, that was far from what was actually happening. She was trying to stop herself from crying, she did not want people to look down on her or pity her that was why she never cried no matter how hard life was for her. No matter how badly she was treated back home, she did not cry, even when she had to stop school because her father could no longer afford to take care of her, reason being, she was going to live with a rich man so he would have to pay for all her expenses including her school fees. She used to wonder if she was as adopted but seeing that they looked alike, she was not mistaken. It was her fault also, if only she had agreed to read the course he chose for her may be she would not be so dispensable. May be she would be able to provide for herself. What she did not know was that she was deemed worthless from birth, it did not matter if she listened to him and obediently studied what he asked her to, she would be sold off nonetheless.
"I'm fine," she spoke gently, getting up from the floor. "let's take you to the hospital." He softly said, watching her rinse her mouth. After which, he helped her out of the bathroom, he picked up her purse, using the private elevator, they went down directly to the garage. They both boarded a car, leaving for the hospital. On reaching the hospital, he did not get out of the car, he simply patted her head and asked her to go up, he would be there after parking the car. The truth was that, he did not want to be seen publicly with her, so he offered her a debit card instead, Her dull eyes finally lit up as she regained hope, she now had access to money so she would be able to escape soon.
