Chapter 85
Enzo:
I walked inside the hospital, blind as my heart raced against my chest with each step that I took.
The file was in my hand and I knew that throwing it in her face was not going to heal the heat and anger that I was now feeling. I didn’t even know how I was supposed to react, but I knew one thing, the woman was going to pay for everything that she has done. And I was going to be sure that it is done slowly.
“Enzo?” Katherine said, seeing me entering the hospital room.
Alonso was still asleep, and she was sitting by her side, looking at him as if she was debating on how she was going to fix this. “Is everything alright?”
“You tell me?” I asked, opening my laptop to show her the video of herself. Her eyes widened in surprise and I handed her the paternity test, keeping my eyes on her as I spoke. The anger that I felt was one that I couldn’t describe. I lost more than I could afford for her sake. I lost my wife, my home, a stable home, for her sake, and here she was, years later, a liar.
“Enzo, I can explain…”
“Explain what?” I asked, shaking my head in question. “Explain that you lied about him being my son? Or the fact that you burned the house? Explain that you put the whole pack in danger? Or that I have been raising a boy who was not even mine, thinking that he was mine, for all this time? Explain to me that you were sharing my bed for years while lying to me…?”
“You wouldn’t have looked at me otherwise, Enzo. I was alone and I was scared. I didn’t wan to…”
“You are still trying to find the lies to cover for yourself?” I asked, stopping her. “Rather than staying quiet, you are still trying to explain that you were a fucking damn liar?”
“I am trying to explain to you what happened, Enzo. I was put in tough situation. I was fighting for him, myself, and I was trying to keep him safe. I didn’t want to hurt him with everything that was going on around me. I didn’t want him to pay for the things that I…”
“You went ahead and lied, bringing over another man’s child as an Alpha’s son. I always wondered why I didn’t feel the bond with him as I should have. I felt it with Ashton and when I asked, when I wondered, I dismissed. I thought that you were more fucking human than to think about lying this way. But no, the mistake was from my side. I was the one who was fucking wrong to believe in a bitch like yourself in the first place!” I snapped, making sure to mind my tone as I knew that we were still in the hospital. “He is the bastard Alpha’s son, isn’t he?”
“Enzo, you are going to throw me in fire. I need you to understand me, I am not…”
“You threw my whole world in flames. I fucking trusted you with everything that I had. I was deeply in love with you..”
“You left me!” She snapped, stopping me. “For her, you fucking left me. I had no other way to get back to you. I tried every possible way to get back to you, but you were too busy looking at her. I saw the perfect couple on TV, the news, the media, everywhere I opened, you were the first headline that they spoke of. You left me for a woman that you claimed that you didn’t want to live the life that I wanted with you!”
“That is you explanation to lying about a son who is not mine? Right? Am I understanding this correctly? Because you seem to be growing more pathetic with each passing second, by the way. And trust me, had it been another man, your head would have been the price. If I am being patient right now, if I am allowing you to speak, it is because of the child who is asleep on the bed. I am still respecting the fact that he is a kid whose mother locked in a room to play a fucking game.” I said, my tone darkening as I looked at her.
Her heart raced, and she shook her head as she fought her tears. “I didn’t want things to go the way that they did. I wanted to be yours. I wanted to build the family that was taken away from us. Then she appeared again. She came as the perfect mother who was bringing the two boys together. You were listening to her, you were more than open to spending time with her. I wanted her to feel the fire that I felt in my chest as I looked at you.”
“By burning the house with YOUR son inside?” I asked, stopping her. “Are you stupid? Or are you playing the game of stupid? Because this is the only explanation that I can give you. You are being foolish and you are trying to explain something to me that I will not understand. The woman was doing her duty as a mother, because you failed yours, you wanted to burn the house when your boy was inside? It wasn’t even Ashton there, it wasn’t you, it
was an innocent child who wasn’t even related to the whole situation!”
“The fault that I had is falling for her games and tricks. I was burning inside and I wanted her to be accused of it. I didn’t calculate things, it is my mistake…”
“Your mistake is not calculating for things? Not the fact that you burned the house, but the fact that you got caught? That is the mistake that you made?” I asked, shaking my head in question. I looked at her for a moment, my eyes wide in surprise as I processed what I was going through. I did not marry this monster, it was impossible for me to have been this blind.
“Enzo…”
I raised a hand, stopping her from saying a word as I turned to leave, ignoring the clench that I felt in my chest, knowing that it is one that I didn’t expect to go through. Viktor’s eyes met mine and I raised a hand, stopping him from following me. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“Boss…”
“I am going to be at the tower with the one person who is going to bring me peace right now.” I said, clearing my throat. “At least that would ensure that I don’t break her neck here and now.”
“Enzo, you driving in this state…”
“If she tries to run away, kill her.” I said, stopping him, knowing that she was listening. “And find his father. I believe that I know why he is here at this point. Find him and send her to him, give them both the warning; if he has a hand in this, then I am going to be their nightmare.”
“And I’ll be sure that it is done in the worst possible way…”
