Chapter 49: Chapter 49

We left the building escorted by the two well-built men who I guessed were Victor's entourage or guards and as a prisoner, I was taken to Victor's car which was parked in the private area of the parking lot. Classy and screamed reserved.

The door was opened for me in the backseat and I got in without saying a word.

I glanced outside the sunny day before the car windows were rolled back and the driver settled in. The car started moving and I sighed heavily and leaned back to the seat as my eyes closed.

Did I make a mistake for him to get so angry, I've never seen him show that much anger since I met him

***

It was like trouble followed me around without my permission, I failed to understand why a day never passed without me getting into so much trouble, and now sitting in Victor's study room, I was agitated as I fiddled with my fingers.

Digging my sharp nails in my palms just to get rid of the tension I was feeling. That fuzzy scary feeling engulfed me and my heart didn't stop racing from fright

Immediately we reached home I stormed to my room immediately. I didn't even bother to ask Monica that even when Julia was asking me questions I was too confused to say anything. I stayed in my room wondering and worrying about the woman and her baby.

I had so many questions rushing through my head that I failed to sit in one place but moved around checking outside for Victor's car.

I nearly jumped on my seat when the door suddenly opened, getting my attention and I quickly rose to my feet and saw that it was Victor. He looked fresh and clean after a long day.

I shifted my attention to his hands which I saw were hurt earlier and he had white bandages of some sort. The sight of that made my heart race.

Just thinking I happened to be the cause of his pain made me lower my head even more than I didn't dare lookup.

The door slammed shut again scaring me and a gush of wind swooshed by the smell of Victor's cologne hit my nose numbing all my senses but even his scent could calm my nerves

"Victor I know I...made a mistake and I.."I blurted out defensively before he could point out my mistakes. I knew I made a lot of mistakes but I had a valid reason to do what I did and when I spoke. Victor, who was about to sit in his chair, paused.

The air in the room felt heavy and swore I could choke as he slowly turned entirely to me. His gaze was piercing, cold and deadly that I regretted saying anything

"Do you know who you are carrying inside you?"The question was asked in a deep low voice which gave me chills just by hearing it. I wasn't expecting him to remind me of what I was but with each step, I heard approaching me I grew afraid that I didn't have an answer to his questions

"Do you fucking know!" he yelled so loud that I flinched and looked up and Victor was standing an inch from me. He was scary, more like a beast, his breathing was uncontrollable and his face flushed a crimson red and his nostrils had flared showing nothing but rage.

He never yelled or showed any emotions even if it was anger but I could feel his rage and I could taste the bitterness of it. I failed to keep looking at him

"How dare you risk what's precious to me...it seems you are so good at playing a damn hero" he growled and grabbed me by the waist. He didn't grip me tight and he was hurting me but his words surprised me. I was so shocked that I couldn't form words to say to him. But I didn't do anything wrong why was he angry

"She was in pain...I was in that elevator...I got scared seeing her and…"I said, biting back tears. I wasn't playing hero nor did I stand at the Eiffel tower and try to save someone. I happened to be in the same elevator or did he expect me to let the lady die

"Do you realize what would have happened if anything bad had happened to you...who do you think you are to risk my unborn child over something so irrelevant!" he made a low yell but this time he didn't sound like a monster. He seemed to have control of his emotions as he let go of me and I moved away.

"Then I should have stood at a corner and watched her cry in pain...I didn't risk anyone's life...the lady was in danger" I said defensively, he was selfish to think I went out looking for trouble

"Get out now!" he yelled as he turned the other way and I watched as he ran his hands in his hair furiously as if suppressing anger.

I wanted to stay and make him understand but he gave an order and I was to obey hence I stormed out of the room and slammed the door shut,

I didn't even reach that far when I found Kyan and Monica looking all awkward standing at a corner pretending to be arranging flowers on the table.

I looked at them for a while and they were smiling as if they heard what happened and they were happy. I shook my head in disbelief and walked away.
