Chapter 186

~Prove to her you have moved on~

“Lady and gentle man,” said the doctor, pouting his lips before saying yet further. “The paternity test result is ready.” He fondled into a big brown file, brought out a long piece of paper containing lettering and piece of information. “If you give me your permission I would fain read out the result to you or do you want to read it yourself…” before the doctor could finish his statement Mrs. Fanny snatched the result from his hand

She smiled while she read it hastily, “Absolute nonsense!” she beamed and started tearing the result into a million pieces, ‘This asshole here is not the father of my unborn child.” She stood to her feet…

The doctor stood gaping and shooting his scowled face at her. “What did you just do woman?” the doctor queried, winking furiously and standing up to face her squarely.

“You have no respect for your profession, doctor.” She said, pointing at him, “You think I don’t know your plans. You forged a result and you think I am going to believe this false result. I have only one man in my life and he is the father of my unborn child. I can t be pregnant for a bastard, gold-digger and stranger I know nothing about.”

Teddy gave a malicious smile, “I don’t know this doctor from Adam. Why would I connive with him to coin up a false test result. I am glad it has been confirmed I am the father of the unborn child in your womb. You can’t deny me my right. If you are not satisfied we can do it elsewhere just to prove you wrong. Now you listen and listen very good. Do me a favor send a message to your fucking husband…”

She interrupted Teddy with a resounding slap that made the doctor to flinch and place his hands on his cheeks as though the slap was meant for him.

“The next time you mention my husband in anything, the next time you disrespect my marriage the punishment may not be slap, you may lose your life. Fuck you two,” she warned, picked up her handbag and walked away, leaving the door banging.

The doctor was forced to ask, “Where did you meet that mad woman, uh?” When he wasn’t getting any response from him he rubbed him on the shoulder, “Perk up. It is a pity.”

At the time Teddy still had his hand on his cheeks, his eyes staring at the door, as though Mrs. Fanny was still there.

“I need you to print another result, doctor. I know what to do. The battle line is drawn,” he said, rubbing his cheek before he unhooked his stare from the door and gazed upon the doctor.

“Right away, Mr. Teddy,” said the doctor, taking his seat and shifting to the monitor to type another one.

As soon a Kate saw her father being ushered in by the prison warden she rushed to give him a hug when the warden warned her…

“Hehe, no touching, keep to yourself!”

Kate paused at a spot, breathed uneasily and rolled her eyes at the warden who felt less concern with his chest pushed out and long face shooting in the space.

“It is, OK,” Mr. Fanny said to Kate, and managed to direct her with his handcuffed hands to have a seat.

In few seconds they were seated and staring into each other’s eyes as though they were lost to say a word.

“Apologies dad for not seeing me all this while,” said Kate, noticing that his attention wasn’t on her but across her head and once she looked behind, she saw he was staring at Eva, who kept waving at him.

“Who is she?” he asked numbly.

She raised a brow, “Um.. you mean Eva?” she asked, confused yet knowing she wasn’t going to tell him the truth.

“Is that her name?” he asked.

She shook her head. “She is a close friend of mine,” she lied. She wouldn’t know how her father would feel if she should tell him she finally found love in same sex. She wouldn’t want to hurt him more than he already was right now.

Mr. Fanny shared a stare between them, and winced. “I see. How are you, daughter?”

“I am fine dad. I should be asking you that question. Your stay here seems to be coming backward as though you just begun. Am I going to ever have you back home as my father?” She said in a sorrowful tune and her countenance fell.

“Come on daughter,” he tried to touch him but only realized his hands were handcuffed, “I am going to be through serving my jail term some day but for now you just have to be strong for me. Perk up, OK. Now do you have any news for daddy?” he asked staring around.

She paused her lips, dimmed her eyes once thought of what she was about saying hit her in the head, “yes, dad. I regret to tell you that mom will be getting married to Ken tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow?” he asked hastily, widening his gaze at her and gaping in shock.

“Yes tomorrow. They have no shame, even in her state of pregnancy. Her baby bump is obviously getting bigger and she doesn’t give a fuck about what people would say. Every day I see her, I hate myself for being her daughter.” She sensed that her father felt bad hearing that news. “You don’t have to worry dad. The grass will soon be green for you and some day you are going to be happy again.”

With a mountain of frown parading his face, he asked gently, “So what do you suggest I do now, daughter?”

“Very simple dad,” replied Kate, “You are going to invite her over so that you can sign the divorce papers. It is time to make a decision as a strong man. I want you to make her believe that you have moved on and you have nothing to do with her anymore. Prove to her that you have disconnected the antenna that connects you two and they can never be Mr. and Mrs. Fanny anymore. Prove to her that your mind is made up to shift that ring from the married-finger to the divorced finger,” once she said so Mr. Fanny brought his gaze upon the wedding ring on his married finger and then shut his eyes thoughtfully…

Something heartbreaking was about to happen…
