Chapter 694 - Six Hundred And Ninety-four: I Commit My Spirit (1/2)

The third point of view:

You know that saying, ”See what's life flash before one's eyes,” Pedro could testify of that at this moment because he was sure he would be a dead man today.

The way Isabella's brows raised, then her eyes widened before it narrowed and finally darkened told him to say his last prayer.

”What did you just say?” She asked, her tone as low and cold as the arctic ocean.

As if to make it worse, a loud clap of thunder cackled in the distance while lightning flashed across the room, illuminating Isabella's ice-cold expression that made the atmosphere look eerie and frightening.

Pedro gulped and began to think about his life, from the time he learned to call the word ”mother” to the time he grew up to know ”Isabella” and to this very moment.

He finally remembered the verse in the Bible, ”I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith,”

Unfortunately, Pedro hasn't done any; he lost his fight; his race wasn't completed; he failed Isabella's faith. Right now, the only thing he could say is, ”Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!'

”I-Isabella,” He stuttered, taking a step back.

However, Isabella was like a bloodthirsty predator right now and the step he took back was an acknowledgment of his weakness, and like every wild cat out there, the prey's weakness thrilled it.

Isabella took a step forward and Pedro took another step back saying, ”It was a mistake, Isabella!”.

”That mistake just produced a life!” She yelled into his face and that made Pedro winced internally. He was really going to die.

He then attempted to do damage control by saying, ”I'm not even sure that the child is mine, Isabella?”

”You're not sure the child is yours?” She chuckled mockingly, ”How could you be so dumb? A woman that targeted you, why would she not be careful to have your child?! How could you be so dumb?!”

Pedro became dumbfounded at that moment, he hadn't thought about it in that direction. He just assumed that Natasha was one of those gold diggers searching for a man to blackmail and leech off. What if he was the only one she wanted. Wonderful.

”I didn't... know..” Pedro stuttered, swallowing down a lump of saliva.

”Of course, how would you fucking know?!” Isabella screamed and before his very eyes began to destroy everything she could get her hands on.

”Isabella?” Pedro tried to stop her.

However, the moment he touched her, Isabella hurled a vase in his direction and he was left with no option but to duck and the vase missed his head by just a few inches. That was a close one, Pedro realized with his heart pounding in his chest.

”Isabella, calm down!” He told her amid the fact she almost broke his head minutes ago.

”Don't!” She growled, wagging her finger furiously at him. Isabella was vibrating with anger and it didn't seem like she was going to stop anytime soon, ”You dare tell me to calm down!”

”We won't be able to solve this problem with you in this state!” He said.

Isabella retorted immediately, ”Fuck you Pedro because there's no 'we' in this situation. You got a lady pregnant, that one is on you!” She heaped the whole thing on him.
