The Billionaire's Unwanted Bride

Chapter 99

A WEEK AFTER

Tessa's POV

I would never have hurt Aidan's baby, I wasn't that cruel. Besides, the baby had an innocent look and I

would never have hurt her because of what her father had done to me. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

I did what I did so I could get Aidan's attention and I can finally use the opportunity to have him to

myself and probably lie that my pregnancy is his. I never knew this is where it would land me. I never

knew I would be considered a criminal.

I kept telling them that I am pregnant but no one seems to be listening to my lamentations. I know my

father won't help me, he is mad at me and I am sure he has already disowned me by now. I don't know

who I am pregnant for and I tried guessing if it is for Damien, William, or Trevor, or even the guy I had

sex with at the party.

One of my boys betrayed me and brought them to the house where I hid them. I had no other options

left so hosting them in the mansion was the only way out, so as not to incur the wrath of my father

when he came back home and I wasn't home. I called the boys that I worked with years back to deal

with Alex to help.

They kidnapped Lily and her nanny and I told them to bring them to the mansion on foot. I kept Lily and

her nanny in the underground ditch my father used to hide us, Freya, my mother, and I, when we were

still young and whenever he was having any issues with his business.

Dad had a lot of rivals when we were little and we were always heavily guarded so they wouldn't get

back at dad through us. Freya and I became used to that lifestyle and when it was time for us to gain

our freedom, dad wouldn't let us so we went wild, especially me.

I felt that ditch was the only place to keep them till I can achieve my aim and let them go. All I wanted

was for Aidan to come looking for them here and I would promise to help. That was my plan. But here I

am, in a cell, looking miserable and dying to have someone to take me out of here.

I didn't take my arrest very seriously when they came into the house. I thought I was going to go scot-

free, by telling them where I hide Lily and her nanny and calling my father to come and release me on

bail but I was fucking wrong.

Damien is dead, I heard. I would have called him. I wonder who is responsible for his death. I still can't

believe the man I had sex with just a week ago who was standing like a god is dead. Damien seems

untouchable and too smart to be assassinated, just like that.

I know he likes me. If only he was still alive, I would have called him to help, I know he will find a way to

get me out of here.

My father didn't even visit me but my mother promised to make sure he helps me out. It's been a week

already and I am still stuck here. I tried talking to Aidan but he was bent on seeing me rot in here. He

was deeply hurt. Now I regret my actions.

I can't talk to Anna or Aidan's mother so they can help me plead with Aidan to let me go because of my

pregnancy. I also thought of lying that the baby is his but I know I will be in more trouble if I did that.

Aidan will know that I am lying and even if Anna believes it or anyone else, Aidan will request for a

paternity test and that will put me in a bigger trouble.

Williams came visiting once and he never came back. Everyone left me, even my best friend. I haven't

seen Zoe since I was brought in here. Now I don't know who to run to for help. I don't know who loves

me enough to get me out of this hell hole. I can't have my baby here.

Even though my baby doesn't have a father, she deserves better. I know I am a bad person but I am

willing to change for my baby.

Is it too late already?

Should I call Freya to come and help me? I was having doubts about calling Freya for help. Her

husband isn't rich and I doubt if there is anything they can both do to help me out. There is just one

thing Freya can do to help me and that is talking to our father but I know that will never happen.

Father doesn't consider Freya as his child anymore and he wouldn't even talk to her, despite all these

years. Now that I am in the same boat as my sister, I have a feeling this is where I will end. This is my

new home.

I kept thinking nonstop of who to call until an idea took a form in my head and I called Trevor. He is my

last option, even though I vowed not to have anything to do with him again. I called him and he

promised to visit.

Seeing Trevor before me now is giving me hope and a new surge of confidence that I will be out of

here if Trevor believes my lie.

"You are pregnant for me?" He asks me again as if to be sure.

The repeated question is making me have a second thought about the whole thing.

Should I just tell him no? What if he demands a paternity test? What if he doesn't believe me?

I know this baby isn't his. Trevor and I had sex two months ago. It was a coincidence and I didn't plan

it. We met at a party, I was drunk and he was too.

I tried to get away from him because I felt he was a bad person for not doing his best to see me

married to his son. He followed me and we ended up having sex in his car. It happened again and

again in his car till I became sober in the morning. I left before he woke up.

Damien and I had sex a week ago. I had sex with Taylor, a boy I met at a club a month ago. I had sex

with William too during that time. I didn't wait for the doctor to tell me how old the baby was before

running out of the hospital to stick to my plan.

Just hearing about the news of my pregnancy brought a new idea into my head and I was bent on

using it to my advantage without giving much thought to figuring out who the father is. All I wanted was

to make it look like Aidan is responsible but my plan failed.

"Yes, it is." I look down. "Ever since that night at the club, I have been feeling unwell. I skipped going to

work for a week, thinking it was just a mild sickness but it persisted and I stopped going to work. I didn't

give it much thought though because I was already looking for an excuse not to go to work anymore,

until I became unconscious and was taken to the hospital where it was confirmed that I am pregnant." I

narrate my false tale, with a sympathetic look on my face.

He chuckles lightly and folds his arm, leaning back to gaze at me, as if to figure out if I am saying the

truth.

"How do you know the baby is mine, Tessa?" He asks and I gasp.

"Of course it's yours. My baby is two months gone and we had sex two months ago....."

"And you weren't having sex with another man?" I watch his face for emotions.

"No, of course not. I was working, always busy to have any fun. Besides, my dad's hovering eyes were

always on me, we leave home together and go home together", I lie about leaving work together with

my father.

He looks convinced. He drops his hands and I heave a sigh of relief. "If that is the case, then it's fine."

He grins boyishly.

"What do you want me to do?" He asks, with no smile.

Why is he looking serious now? I know what I am doing is dangerous because if Trevor gets to know I

am lying and the baby isn't his, he is going to kill me but I want to give it a try just to get my freedom.

"I want you to please get me out of here, I can't survive here with this baby", I touch my flat belly. He is

silent for a while before saying. "I will think about it."

"What? Trevor, there is nothing to think about. This is your child, you can't leave us here." I am on the

verge of crying. Trevor is my only hope now.

He sighs deeply and suddenly begins to smile again. "I am not going to leave you here, baby", he holds

my hand and pecks it. I try to calm my nerves, staring at him intensely.

"I have a condition to get you out of here, Tessa."

"Condition?" I can't believe Trevor wants to take advantage of my vulnerable situation.

What the hell does he want again now? Is it sex?

"Yes, I want you to give me your inheritance...."

"What? What rubbish are you saying?" I shout.

"Calm down, sweetheart", his eyes have amusing twinkles. "Your father has disowned you already and

the earlier I help you get the documents out, the better before your father changes the name to that of

your elder sister", he says.

I have forgotten about that. Father can do this. He did the same for Freya. He changed all the names to

mine, making me feel on top of the world.

What will happen now that I have also been disowned? Is he going to do the same thing again?

"What do you want?"

"That's my girl", he grins broadly. "I will help you get the documents out and then you will sign it for me.

The moment all those properties become mine, I will get you out of here", he explains.

I shake my head.

"Not only that", he waves his index finger in front of me. "I am also going to marry you."

"What?!"
