Chapter 100 - Clearing his name (2) (1/2)

April tears were like an endless source of water, yet not once did she made a sound. She cried in silence as she listened to his confession. If one had experienced it before, then you will know how heartbreaking for her and yet how strong she was on handling it.  Someone who cries in silence would feel how heart-clenching it was, how hard it was to breathe and how hard to suppress her cries.

As she listened to him, it became worse and worse. It was as if someone was stabbing her heart nonstop. Funny thing was, the person who did it was the one she had loved the most. While she was in the US and healing her heart, he was busy taking care of his wife.

What does this mean? Why was he so accommodating? And when he said that he was guilty of her suffering. What about me? She thought. What about the suffering that she endured from his wife? Right now, she couldn't even bring it up.

Her eyes became red and swollen. Her face was red as a tomato from crying. When he finished her sentence by saying that he no longer loves his wife because he finally saw her disgusting personality. To what end though? She couldn't help but think.

Now that everything happened already? Knowing that Francesca had deliberately planned it, she couldn't help but wonder. Out of herself, she asked this out loud. ”What if she gets pregnant?”

This stunned Alex. He didn't know what to say. He hadn't thought of it. He only thought of how disgusting it felt, sleeping with a vile woman and it was even his wife. April's question woke him up to face an important matter at hand.

”If she is, I would do anything to abort it.” He clenched his fist. ”No matter what, the divorce will go forward. Her getting pregnant would be an easy matter.”

He hugged April tightly and said. ”I will get rid of it.”

April instantly pulled herself away and asked. ”If you had known that time who I was and when I became pregnant. Would you have gotten rid of our son too?!”

This made him stiffened, unable to answer.

His silence broke her heart even more. Unable to stand being near him, she stood up and ran away. Far as possible from him. Her heart was in a mess and she didn't want to say any nasty words. No matter what was said and done, he was Sky's father.

Alex had seemed to be frozen. He knew that he should run towards her and yet his body didn't want to listen. He sat there as his whole world had just shattered. He couldn't understand why he couldn't answer her. Yet he knew inside his heart that he loved his son, so why did he hesitate?

”April, wait!” He stood up and tried to see where she was heading. He ran everywhere trying to see a glimpse of her.

The villa was situated near the beach. It had easy access for the wealthy families like him. Yet no matter where he turned and ask, nobody had seen her passed by.

April was unconscious. When she was running away earlier, she didn't notice that there were two men following her. As soon as she walked into an empty corner, the two men acted fast and grabbed her. One man held her down while the other man put a handkerchief on her nose. It was filled with chloroform, making her fall asleep.
