Cruel Destiny novel Chapter 16

Natasha POV [6 months pregnant]

It has been two months since my last appointment and everything was alright.

Mrs. Allen had called me to her house for dinner 6-7 in a month for dinner.

She is such a sweetheart and has always taken care of me. I saw my mother in her and that thought made me sigh.

No matter how much I say that I don't care about anyone or that if they don't want me then it is ok.

But I am not okay. There are many nights which I spent crying.

I wanted my mother to be here with me so that she could tell me what to do next.

I wanted my father to be here so that he could handle Liam whenever he called me.

But they all are just dreams and nothing else. No matter how much I imagined that my mother was here with me.

It was just a lie and that thought was enough to make me cry.

My belly is growing with time as I got to know the gender of my baby. I am having a baby girl.

My baby girl is so sweet. She never does disturb me in my stomach. She was a silent type.

But I was concerned that something was wrong with her as she was not moving till the starting of the 6th month.

But Scott told me that it was alright as some babies move late but that doesn't mean that they are not alright.

Scott is really a nice person. We have become kind of friends and he has met Kelly too.

Kelly was always cold around him. People will think that she was being a bitch but now she was studying him.

She wanted to make sure that he was not like Liam. I sighed when I remembered him and sat on the chair in the restaurant.

It was lunchtime and I was having my sandwich. But after studying him for some time, she told me that he is a keeper.

I shot her a look of disbelief and said that I am not ready for a relationship and never will be.

I am still heartbroken and I don't think I would ever be able to move on.

I don't want to admit it but I still love Liam. He was my first and only love.

But I am sure with time I will be able to forget him but I will never love someone other than my baby.

I could never love someone after the betrayal I got from Liam. It was a lesson I had learned.

So I am just going to be his friend and nothing else. And also he is 27. There is a lot of age gap.

About Liam, he had called me many times in the last 2 months. I tried to ignore it all the time but after that incident, I had to pick up his call.

FLASHBACK [5 and half months pregnant]

I was just coming out of the bedroom as it was my time to leave for the club.

But I froze when I saw Liam sitting on my couch in the living room. His one leg was crossed over the other.

He had a cigarette in his mouth and he was smoking it. He was sitting with an arrogant look.

He didn't notice my present or he had just ignored it. But how did he get inside my apartment?

"What are you doing here?" I asked him in a shaky voice.

He just turned his head to give me a cold chilled look and dropped the cigarette on the floor and crushed it with his foot.

He was wearing a business suit looking like a perfect businessman.

He started to walk toward me when I asked "How did you get in here without my permission?"

He was now standing in front of me. There was only a few inches gap between us.

"Why the fuck are you ignoring me?" He asked me with a calm expression.

"You had told me to stay away from you and leave you alone and I am just accepting it," I told him with a shrug.
