Natasha POV
He sighed in frustration and said "I am not in the mood to answer your question. About that night" he said and gestured something to someone.
The person brought a checkbook and Liam wrote something and tore it from the book.
He threw the cheque on my face making everyone laugh and said: "This is your payment for that night and for the abortion of your bastard child."
He smirked evilly at me and said "You are not worth more than this as you didn't satisfy me enough"
I looked at him with anguish after hearing his words and his employees laughing.
I wiped my tears with my palm and with quivering lips said "I am not a whore whom you are paying. I had slept that night with you because I love you. I didn't care about your money. Don't insult my love like this. I don't want your money nor am I going to abort this child."
"Really. People like you only care about money. You are just a waitress right. How could you even think that I would love a poor girl like you? If I wanted to love someone then the girl would be from a rich family. You are nobody. You don't even have a surname and you are watching dreams that I will marry you."
"Then what about this ring?" I asked him while showing my ring.
He laughed and said "It was just a simple prank. It was a very cheap ring. You really think that I would give you a real promise ring."
He was still looking at me with a hard expression. He finally broke me today.
"I am poor. I know that you don't have to tell me that. I had no one since my childhood. You are showing me this attitude of yours just because you have money right. You didn't earn it Liam." I said and pointed my finger around this building.
Then continued "You got all this from your parents. You never know how difficult it is to earn your own money. That's why you are calling me poor but let me tell you one thing Liam, I didn't get anything from anyone."
I sniffled and tasted my tears on my lips and said "If I wanted to eat something, I had to earn it by working hard. The clothes I am wearing, I didn't get it from anyone else. I got it with my own hard work. And you had used me just because I was poor."
He was looking at silence. He didn't say a word and it's good. I don't want to hear any hurtful words from his mouth.
I gave him a small smile and said "You don't have to humiliate me like this in front of everyone. But don't worry, I won't show you my face from now on. You may have never loved me but I did with my whole heart."
I sniffled and said "Goodbye Liam"
I was about to leave but he grabbed my wrist and turned me around.
He grabbed my cheeks between his finger and pressed it hard and hissed "Don't you dare tell this to anyone that I got you pregnant. Otherwise, I will ruin you."
I nodded my head and with trembling lips said "I won't."
He left me and I walked out of the building while hearing the people whispers.
"Oh, so she was his new slut."
"She is pretty. I would have faked my love to fuck her too."
"She is looking like a gold digger"
"Orphan bitch"
I walked out of the building and now I couldn't hear their whispers and insults.
I wiped my tears and looked at the sky. The sun was hiding behind black clouds.
Just like I am living under darkness. Today is the last day I am going to cry for him.
I love him and would always love him but it's time to concentrate on my baby.
I walked toward the bus stop and sat inside the bus. I was looking outside the window and saw that it was drizzling.
It looks like the clouds were also crying for me. They felt my grief and that thought again saddened me.
The first thing I have to do after reaching home is finding another job.
If I wanted to keep the child then I have to do another job too as taking care of the baby is costly.
I am going to find a night job so that I could continue working at the restaurant.
