Chapter 450 - Four Hundred And Fifty: Maggie (1/2)

The third point of view:

Maggie was becoming anxious, why wasn't he here yet? Those people had told her that Fernandez would be here, yet he had not made an appearance even with thirty minutes gone. Could it be that they fooled her? No , that cant be.

”Fernandez” that name was deeply engraved in her memory and made bitterness rise in her heart. She couldn't forget him, not now, not ever, else why would she want to kill him. Desperately.

Maggie couldn't forget the day he approached her - even though she wanted it erased out of her memory. Then, she had been a young naive model, thriving to find her place in the competitive world of fashion. He had been so gentlemanly in his pursuit of making her his surrogate - said she was special or something.

She found out that the man was married, but his wife had cheated on him and gave him a son that wasn't biologically related to him. Now, he wanted a son from another source since he couldn't trust his 'cheat of a wife' - so he called the woman then. Maggie didn't want to agree in the first place but then the stupendous amount of money he offered her was enough to solve her problem - that included her mother's surgery.

As a surrogate, Maggie had expected them to head to the hospital where her eggs will be fertilized with his sperm to make an embryo, that is then implanted in her uterus. But none of that happened, instead, he impregnated her the natural way and that was when it dawned on Maggie, she was a kept woman.

Although Maggie was not happy with the change of their deals, Fernandez had compensated for that with his love, gifts, and attention. In no time, she forgave him and looked forward to giving birth to his child nine months later. So she dreamt - quite a young, innocent, girl then.

Everything changed drastically two months after when they had gone for a gender blood test and it turned out she was going to have a female child. The way Fernandez's expression twisted uglily told Maggie she was doomed even before his attitude towards her took a three-sixty degrees turn!

That night, for the first time, Fernandez hit her. He not only hit her but abused her; sexually, mentally, and physically. He called her a slut, claiming she was a succubus who had come to drain him of his money and hit her even as he did her. It was the most humiliating act anyone had done to her and though it was two years already, it was fresh like yesterday in Maggie's mind. The experience traumatized her, the girl hadn't been able to live normally since then.

The child in her womb didn't survive, the kicks to her stomach Fernandez had given her that night took away her surviving chance - and she somehow sensed Fernandez had done that on purpose to rid the child.

She almost died that night from the pains nor did Fernandez cared enough to call an ambulance for her because he left right away without even looking back. It was one of her friends who she called over with a huge effort that helped her escape the claws of death that night.

Her friend had advised her to report the crime to the police but Maggie didn't dare to. Fernandez was a huge corporation owner compared to her who was just a nobody. She was just an ant that he wouldn't hesitate to crush if she dared cross him. Fernandez had beaten her that night without hesitation, which meant he was not afraid of the so-called Law.

Maggie had gone ahead to live her life for two years, tormented by that night while anticipating the day fate would finally smile at her and let her get her long-awaited vengeance.

But then, the day has finally arrived
