Chapter 39 DON’T CALL MY WOMAN A BITCH
“What did you say?” Aziz refused to believe the word coming out of her mouth. She had to be joking.
“I found out I was three months four weeks pregnant after we broke up, I wanted to come to you, to let you know you have a son but then I lost contact with you. I knew you would love your child despite our differences, and I am so-”
“Stop talking!” Aziz snapped, his eyes red as he stared at her with so much fury burning in him. “You are lying!”
“Why would I lie about such a sensitive thing? I had a hunch that you wouldn’t believe it since we have been apart for so long so I brought him here to meet his father,” she stepped away from the wall and walked into the bedroom, coming out later with a sleeping boy in her arm.
Aziz couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw the boy in Lena’s arms, she came to him and prepped the boy a little so he could stare at his cute little face.
“Look, check for yourself to see if I am lying or not,” she tucked her hair behind her ear. “You should know me better than this Aziz, you should know I never joke with my words.”
Aziz felt his feet freeze to the ground, unable to move his body. A cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
“No!” He muttered. “This can’t be, you can’t be pregnant, you can’t have a child for me-”
“Why?” Lena asked. “Is it that you are impotent? Are you trying to tell me that I cheated on you with another man or you are trying to tell me that this child is not yours?” She yelled at him. Are you trying to tell me that I don’t know what I am talking about? Are you so blinded by that slut that you cannot believe what is in front of you?” by now, she had placed a child on the couch behind her and when she spun around to face him, Aziz grabbed her by the throat and slammed her back on the wall.
“Don’t you ever call Lexi a slut again, do you hear me?” Lena bobbed her head, her eyes shimmering with fear. “You are right… I know you, Lena, I know you can go to any extent to get what you want,” he glared at her. “Isn’t that what you did with me? I will not believe a single word that falls out of that mouth of yours.
“That is why first thing tomorrow, I am going to take that son of yours to the hospital and have a DNA test run on him. I will find out what you’re trying to do by coming here, so don’t think your little plan of pinning this child on me will work.”
Glaring at her for a few more minutes, he walked out of the hotel, and she released the breath she had been holding since the moment he walked into her hotel room. Aziz rode the elevator to the entrance, when he got out, he slammed his fist against the wall and screamed.
“Damn it!! How the hell did this happen? What have I gotten myself into?” He ruffled his hair with his hands before getting into his car. “Take me home,” he ordered his driver, who without a question, ignited the car and began to drive home.
Aziz leaned his head against the seat, he wonder what he was going to tell Lexi. He hasn’t even exonerated himself about his relationship with Lena, now he has to tell her she has a child for him. Lexi will definitely be heartbroken. His head was a mess of different thoughts.

Lexi tipped the bottle against her lip, gurgling down the contents in it, her eyes were red, her hair dishevelled since she had run her hands through it numerous times. Is this what heartbreaks feel like? if this was the kind of pain that people feel in a relationship when their partners break up with them or cheated on them.
Then she did not want to feel this kind of pain… Ever. No… She didn’t even want to be in a relationship anymore. This was too much pain to handle. All her life, she had thought she would end up marrying a reliable man, someone who will cherish and love her as she deserves. Someone who would treat her like a queen and value her for giving him her virginity, but all her dreams are gone now.
Scattered with the wind. Nothing…
Absolutely nothing could have prepared her for this. She would never have believed that she, Lexi, would let a man use her continuously until he was tired of her. She had been a fool to believe there could be any future for her and Aziz.
How did she even think there can be a future for step-siblings who were only attracted to each other by lust? She tilt the bottle again, gulping down the last contest in the bottle, her eyes turning tipsy and all she could see were split images of the people around her. She tried to stand up only to wobble back into the seat behind her, the action caused her to lose her vision temporarily.
Lexi shook her head to clear the fog… When her eyes cleared a little, she was able to see the hand stretched in front of her.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“What the-” her words were cut short when she bestowed the man in front of her. He is so handsome but the addicted part of her brain kept comparing him to Aziz, that she didn’t hear a single word of what he said.
The heavenly smell of lavender filled her nostrils, and that is when she realized that the stranger was sitting beside her with the top half of his body towering over her.
“Do you want to go in?” Her foggy brain pick up his word and when she looked at him, he was smiling with his hands stretched in front of her again.
Even though her brain refused to betray Aziz, she wanted him to feel the pain she is feeling right now. With a lot of effort, she smiled and placed her small hands in his own.
“Yea, I would like to go in.”
