Chapter 172 - Cedric's Doubts

Ch-171 

"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," Cedric said with a disgusting smile. 

Tears flowed down her eyes like a river. She never expected him to say these things. 

Never wanted to have a family with her?!

The child never deserved to exist!? 

Sex doll?! 

She wanted to slap him. But she was tired of doing that. Wiping her tears harshly, she looked at him. 

"Cedric, I will never give a chance for you to become a father in this life! You are building your happiness at the expense of my unb… my heartbreak! I wish you suffer here your rest of life!" she spat out viciously and left. 

She almost said unborn child… but she corrected at the right time. 

Eleanor never thought Cedric would be this heartless. Maybe it was all her wishful thinking that he was good and thought she was misunderstanding him. She doesn't want to know about him or anyone else. 

She will live for herself from now on. Why does she need to care about him when he doesn't?

She doesn't need a man in her life! And she will show the world… what she can do. Eleanor left with Myna to her house. Now… she has news to break. That was her pregnancy news. How she shall break it. Her brother… wasn't awake still. Didn't they say he would wake up soon? But why didn't he wake up yet? 

Eleanor returned to her room and cried till she fell asleep. That night she skipped her breakfast and slept. 

—-------------------

Cedric was heartbroken when he heard her words. He doesn't want to say those things but he has to. 

'I will never give you a chance to become a father!' her words rang in his ears. 

Closing his eyes tightly, he leaned back as if he was sleeping. 

As he thought about her words… his mind went back to the time where she cut her words abruptly. Unbo…. What does it mean? 

She was talking about them becoming a family and him accepting her child. In their conversation… she didn't ask him to love her but asked if she ever loved her even a bit. 

Does that mean she was expecting something? 

If she does what was she expecting? 

Closing his eyes he thought for a while. I will never let you become a father…. Does that mean… she was pregnant?!

She must be!? 

Many doubts were raised in his mind. He wanted to know if his doubt was true or not. 

But for that, he needs to go out. 

But his annoying sister wasn't let him have the access to his phone. He needs to do something about this. 

He needs to get out and know if he was going to be a father or not. 

With these thoughts, he started plotting his next step. 

—--------

Katherine was watching everything from her camera. Even she wanted to beat the shit of her brother when she saw that. She made a copy of that footage and sent it to her father. 

Only he can make a decision, but if her father gets to know Eleanor was pregnant he would get her to their mansion by force. Or he would take away the child from her after she gave birth. He knew the men in Emerson's family too well. She wouldn't leak the information to them. She needs to protect Eleanor and the baby. 

To protect them, she needs to keep her brother away from them. She knew she cannot hold him for a long time. Edward and his other friends would get him out anytime soon. 

Putting her thoughts aside, she sent the video to her father. Not sensing the danger in it. 

Katherine doesn't know that… Eleanor left many hints in her words about herself being pregnant. IF she has noticed it rather than being so guarded against her father and brother… she would have protected her. But still… even if she was a police apprentice… she was still an eighteen-year-old girl, who couldn't fight those two old cunning foxes. 

Shutting down the computer. Katherine leaned back intending to take a rest. But just then her stomach growled. Only then did she remember that she hasn't eaten a single bite after breakfast. 

Even though she wanted to eat, she decided not to. She drank some water and leaned back. But her stomach wasn't silenced. Sighing… she got up to fill her stomach. 

—-------

Cedric felt thirsty after a long day. He looked at the side of his table but the jug doesn't have a single drop of water. Getting up from the seat, he banged the door. 

There were few guards left there who heard his banging and went to him. 

"What do you need?" they asked. 

"Water," he said. 

"Give the jug," they asked and he handed it. 

"Where is Katherine?" Cedric asked when his eyes didn't find his sister. 

"She went to eat," they said. 

Cedric nodded. 

"Call your chief. I have something to talk about with him," Cedric said. 

The guards called their chief. 

"May I know why does Mr. Emerson want to see me?" the chief asked with a kind yet unkind smile. 

"I need to make a call," Cedric said. 

"You are not in the position of making negotiations in this situation," the chief said. 

"According to the basic rules, the one who's arrested can call two people. I am asking to call only one person. You are breaching my rights," Cedric. 

The chief wanted to say something but he was confident that he wouldn't let Cedric go. So, he let him make a call. He called Edward and connected a conference call with his lawyer and his assistant. 

Indeed he was making only one call, right? But the poor chief he didn't even see what Cedric was doing. 

He conveyed he was arrested and asked them to get him out before hanging the call. 

Katherine finished her food in forty minutes and returned to the station. For some reason, she felt something was wrong. But she doesn't where it went wrong.

Edward was shocked to know that Cedrc was arrested. He immediately got his men and investigated the cause. Then he got to know it was Valene who filed a case against him for the sake of Eleanor. 

Edward felt annoyed when he get to know that Eleanor was the reason for his suffering again. Just then he saw Nathaira returning home with a smile. 

Nathaira was skeptical about Cedric's action. Even though he said he was dating Nathaira she was afraid when he saw his old flame, he would get drawn to her again. But he proved her wrong. She was so happy that she wanted to dance. But before that… she needs to get him out. Only her stupid brother can help. 

Edward felt something was amiss again. Didn't Nathaira she would be leaving Lucren and wouldn't be coming back never in her life but now she was here. The same day the Cedric got arrested and was returning from Alvonia. 

This was something suspicious. He sent a message to his men to do a detailed investigation on the case. 

"Why are you back?" he asked feeling annoyed. 

"Obviously, I miss you, brother," Nathiara said. 

"Say what do you need?" Edward asked irritatedly. 

"Brother… why do you say like I only come to you when I need you?" she said with a pout which made Edward even more annoyed. 

"Say it, NATHAIRA!! I don't have a whole day?!" he yelled. 

"Since you are asking me… I will tell you," she started. 

Edward knew whatever she was going to say won't be good. He prepared himself for the worst. Which was she murdering someone. If she was going to do that… he won't even save her. He would send her to jail with a happy heart. 

"Get Cedric out of the jail," she said throwing a stone on him. 

How in the hell does she know about it? 

If she knew why didn't she tell him about it? 

Does that mean… there was something more than the things that reached his eyes?

It must be. If not how could she know about those thing? But how did she know? 

Was she involved in this thing? 

Edward knew Nathaira's obsession with Cedric. He saw the craziest side of her life to them at a certain point of time. If she was involved in this issue… it only means one thing. 

That was… doom. 

The doom of everyone whom she knew. 

"How do you know?" Edward asked her. 

He couldn't keep it inside her for a long time and spilled it out. He knew she wouldn't say but he just wanted to give it a try. 

"Because I am the reason for his prison life," Nathaira said as she checked her nails. 

Edward saw red.. He walked ahead and caught her neck. She was doing everything all again! How long could he take it?
