Chapter 171 - Just A Sex Toy (2/2)

Will he give the fatherly love that the child needed?

Will he be happy after knowing the news?

Eleanor's mind was filled with many questions and question marks. Taking a deep breath, she took a step ahead.

It's all for her baby. She doesn't need to be scared of telling the news to the baby's father. But… if she withdraw the case… she couldn't face her family.

Wait!

She wasn't the one who filed the case against Cedric but Valene. She needs her brother to withdraw the case. Sigh… she would just talk to Cedric in the cell. With these thoughts, she walked ahead.

She saw people running here and there. She could hear a few groaning sounds. But she ignored them. Her stomach was churning at the sight of the police station. She could smell the faint smell of blood. She wanted to go out and throw up but she held it.

She walked ahead and spotted the chief of the police station. When the chief saw Eleanor, he got up and smiled at her.

”How are you, Miss?” he asked.

”I am fine,” she said.

”How may I help you?” he asked cautiously.

”I want to speak with Cedric Emerson,” Eleanor said. The chief looked as if he saw a ghost. This was the first time in his experience that a victim was asking their permission to talk with their assaulter. Nevertheless, he agreed, after all, they were talking about Cedric Emerson.

It's evening in the day, Cedric almost stayed in the jail for a day. She felt her heartache for him. The chief arranged for them to talk. They took Cedric to the interrogation room. After all, despite the evidence they didn't get the court hearing. So they have to wait for two days to visit the court. After all, it's already Saturday. And they have to interact with everyone involved in the case. So, he was still in the cell. All this while, Cedric wanted to call someone to get out of the situation. But his sister took his phone away. That's when the love of his life entered worriedly. He wanted to smile, wink at her and tease her. But he stopped remembering what he has done to her.

”Why are you here?” he yelled at her.

”Cedric… please… listen, only five minutes,” she pleaded. She was desperate to tell the news but again she was scared.

Cedric wanted to break the cell and take his fragile beauty into his arms. He wanted to hug her, kiss her and say that he was there for her. But he knew he can't do that. Clenching his hand into a fist… he hardened himself.

”Why are you so desperate to talk to me? You can't forget the nights with me?” he asked with a smirk. It didn't look like his normal teasing but disgusting. Eleanor clenched her fist tightly when she heard his words. His every word thinning the hope she has for him. Closing her eyes for a split second to hide the hurt, she looked at him again.

”Cedric…” Eleanor was about to say something to him but he cut her off harshly.

”Don't take my name from your filthy mouth. Only Nathaira can take that name,” he said.

Her nails dug into her skin. Here she was thinking about him and their future but he was saying she was filthy. Then would he treat their child as filth too?

She shivered at the thought. She couldn't allow that to happen. Her child was the most precious thing in her life and even in the world. Unknowingly her bloodied palms went onto her stomach and clutched it tightly as if she was protecting her child.

”Didn't you wait for years to talk to me? Didn't you say my voice is music to your ears? What's wrong now?” she asked.

”Are you still in your dreamland?” he asked. His was dripping with venom.

Eleanor lowered her head. She was putting her self-respect aside to talk with him. She still felt chills running down her spine when she remembered the situation from the morning. Sweat broke from her forehead. Taking a deep breath, she raised her head and looked at him.

”Do you love me at least a bit?” she asked looking into his eyes.

Cedric's heart broke into pieces at her words. He wanted to say that he wanted to accumulate all the love in the world and give it to her but he couldn't say anything.

”Nope. I never loved you. I was there with you for only sex,” he said. Eleanor's eyes widened in shock. Soon the shock was replaced with pain, hurt, and betrayal.

One last chance won't hurt more than now, right? With that, she decided to give him only one chance.

”Then why did you say you want to have a family with me? Will you abandon me and my child if I am pregnant?” she asked.

Her eyes were burning. Her tears were threatening to fall but she held them back. She was waiting for his answer. There was a small flicker of hope in her heart.

”I would never have a family with you. As for the child, It doesn't deserve to be on the earth. Just for the sole reason of being the son of you. You are just a sex doll to me. If you ever wanted to have sex, you can find me. I will satisfy you,” he said with a disgusting smile.

That was all. Her heart was beyond broken.. She would never in her life, trust a man again.
