Chapter 186 Fake Result
Scarlett's POV:
The next morning, I got up and walked downstairs when my son was still asleep. I rubbed my sore eyes and yawned as I walked.
When I heard the sound of news on TV, I immediately jolted back to reality.
"Scarlett, come here! Look at this. The news says that Nate had something to do with your father's death!" Christine said in an excited voice, waving at me while she sat on the sofa. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
I rushed to her side and saw that a reporter was interviewing Nate on TV.
"It's all just rumors. People are trying to slander me. I can swear that I have never done such a thing! And I know that the police and the judge will also agree with me!" Nate swore with his hand in the air, looking righteous and aweinspiring.
"What a hypocrite!" I sneered.
All of a sudden, I heard a noise coming from behind me, so I turned around and found Charles.
Our faces were so close that I could even see my reflection in his shiny eyes.
"Don't worry. No matter how much he tries to justify himself, the truth will come out," Charles said in a serious tone, looking at me.
I gave him a nod before I stepped back to put a safe distance between us.
Charles' words seemed to work like magic as they calmed me down instantly. When I looked at Nate, who was acting so righteous on TV again, I felt like he was being ridiculous.
He looked like a weak mouse that had been cornered by the cat.
After I had breakfast, Janet drove me to the TV station.
Lily's POV:
I was lying down on the sofa in the glass greenhouse at Nate's villa, resting as I enjoyed the gentle morning sun and a crisp fragrance of the dew.
All of a sudden, I heard a loud sound.
I immediately sat up, panicking, and found Rita pushing open the door and storming towards me, accompanied by many burly-looking men.
"Rita! What do you think you're doing? This is my home!" While attempting to stop her, I accidentally slipped and fell from the sofa.
Rita looked down at me and sneered, "Your home? What? Do you really believe that you're the hostess of the Lively family now?"
"No, don't get me wrong. Obviously, you are the princess of this family, after all, you are Nate's daughter..." Knowing that her intentions might not be very nice, I tried to coax her while I quietly reached for my cellphone to call Nate.
But to my surprise, Rita saw through it, approached me, and snatched the phone away from me.
With a disdainful smile on her lips, she looked at the screen before she turned to her bodyguards and signaled to them.
"What a hypocritical bitch! You don't deserve to give birth to my father's child at all. Hurry, take her away!"
As soon as she gave the order, two bodyguards immediately approached me with an unfriendly look in their eyes.
Frightened, I took a step back and screamed in a shrill voice, "Rita! Does your father know about this? He would never allow you to treat me this way!"
"I don't care what he thinks. We'll see how he reacts when he finds out, won't we?" Rita cast a cold glance at my belly, making me shiver.
"My son is the heir of Lively Group. If you dare to hurt me or him, Nate won't let you go!" I struggled to free myself from the bodyguards ' grip, but I was no match for their strength.
"Let's go."
Rita turned around elegantly, making the hem of her white skirt flow with the wind, like a row of white flower petals. On the outside, she looked beautiful and pure, but on the inside, she was truly a vicious demon!
Her bodyguards dragged me to the hospital, and she asked the doctor to do a paternity test for my baby.
"Help! Can someone please help me?" I shouted.
And the next moment, one of the bodyguards rudely pinned me against the chair and covered my mouth with his rough hands.
A long time later, I saw the doctor handing a report to Rita.
Reading it, Rita looked at me with a gloomy expression. "What? I can't believe that she's actually carrying my father's child in her belly!"
I shrank back in fear, sensing an ominous premonition.
By the time I was sent back to Nate's villa, it was in the afternoon.
I collapsed to the floor in a daze, and stayed there for a long time before I finally came to my senses and staggered back to my room. I wanted to pack up and leave as soon as I could.
But when I pushed open the door holding the suitcase in my hand, I was stunned to see Rita's bodyguards standing outside, separating me from my freedom.
I immediately shrank back again and felt my legs go soft before I fell to the ground weakly.
With a flat look in their eyes, the bodyguards glanced at me before they reached out to close the door behind them. "You can't leave without permission."
Upon hearing that, I immediately crawled to the bodyguard, held his feet as I looked at him pitifully. "Wait! Please let me go. I'll pay you twice as much as Rita does!"
But my words had no effect at all as the man continued to pick me up, threw me back inside the house, and slammed the door shut.
As I slumped to the floor, I looked at the closed doors with a sense of despair in my heart.
Rita already had proof that my baby was indeed Nate's, so what more could she possibly want now?
I wanted to call for help, but I suddenly realized that Rita still had my phone.
I couldn't help but tremble as I prayed that she would never find out the secrets in my phone.
After a long time, the door made a creaking sound as it was pushed open.
Nate was standing at the door. I couldn't see his expression in the darkness, but I wanted to hug him and pour out the grievances in my heart.
To my surprise, I was not greeted with his comforting soft voice, but a hard slap against my cheek.
It was so loud that it echoed in the villa.
Covering my cheek, I looked at the man in front of me in disbelief. "What are you doing? Rita bullied me all morning, and now you're slapping me?"
"Rita bullied you?" Looking into his cold eyes, I was immediately reminded of Rita's indifferent glance from that morning.
Their coldness was identical, proving that they were both from the same family, indeed.
However, looking at him being so cruel made my heart sink.
"Tell me the truth. Who is the father of the bastard in your belly?" Nate roared, approaching me with a furious look.
"How can you call our son a bastard? He is our child, after all!" I was on the verge of a breakdown. Rita got the paternity test results! Did she not tell Nate about it?
Before I knew, Nate grabbed me by my neck and threw me on the table.
"Ah!"
I felt like my body was cut in half and let out a painful scream. Subconsciously, I touched my belly.
While I was still in a trance, Nate picked up something and threw them on my face, causing me pain.
Many photos were scattered on the floor in front of me. I widened my eyes in horror when I saw the photos. They were all pictures of me, naked, with different men.
"No! Please trust me, Nate. I have always been on birth control until we met, so it is impossible for me to be pregnant with their child!" I explained at once, understanding his suspicion.
However, Nate continued to look at me coldly as he grabbed me by my collar, lifting me up, and pressing my head against the table.
"You lying bitch!" he cursed.
"I am not the one lying to you! Rita got a paternity test done today, and the result proved that the baby in my belly is indeed yours!" Horrified, I grabbed his hand with tears gushing out of my eyes.
Nate's breath came into short gasps as he glared at me fiercely, making my hair stand.
"Moreover, I have only slept with you ever since we met, and I haven't even been in contact with anyone else." I summoned my courage to look into his eyes while I begged for his trust.
"Is that so? Look at this!" Sneering, he loosened his grip on my hair and threw a report in front of me.
Hesitating for a moment, I opened the report and saw that my child was not related to Nate at all.
"How is this possible?" I was stunned.
"What else do you have to say for yourself, bitch?" Nate roared before he threw another punch at me and kicked me.
"No, Nate... That report is faked! It's a fake!" I was really hurting, so I could not hold back my tears at all.
"Shut up! I don't want to hear your lies!" he shouted at me again and kicked me on my belly.
Feeling a sharp piercing pain, I instantly lost consciousness, and let the darkness swallow me.
