Betrayed by Husband Divorced when Pregnant (Kelly and Pierce) novel Chapter 103

Chapter 103: Chapter 103 Slough of Despond

Kelly’s POV

It’s just 5 AM when I decided to go out and swim. I saw an infinity pool and might as well enjoy my stay here—my imprisonment, I mean. I saw hundreds of clothes in the walk-in closet of the room I’m staying in and I’m currently wearing black two piece.

I don’t wanna look like I’m having fun here, but I’m already in the prison world. Should I make myself feel down until I can no longer grasp hope?

Hope. I laughed in my head as I continued swimming. Snow is the only hope I have and I tried asking Klay to let me have my phone even just for a few seconds. I wanna hear Snow’s voice but he didn’t give my phone back.

When I got tired of swimming, I went back inside the house. I met Klay in the hallway with messy hair and a creased forehead.

“Where were you?”

I stared at him and touched the knot of my bathroom. “Swimming is forbidden too?”

He sucked his breath and looked away. I saw his jaws clenched but I didn’t care. So what if he’s pissed? I will piss him off until he can no longer stand me.

I walked past him, planning to go back to my cozy but lonely room when he spoke.

“This chase will not go anywhere, not even a progress, if you continue doing this.”

The corner of my lips rose and I scoffed because of what he said. “And you really think I care about that?”

“You won’t be able to see your daughter if you continue resisting me, Kelly. You will be trapped here for as long as you refuse to forgive me.”

I gritted my teeth and took a very deep breath. I faced him with tears pooling in the corner of my eyes because of anger. He was looking straight into my eyes as if he’s waiting for me to face him after he provoked me. So, this is what he wants. To provoke me and shake me emotionally so I’d give in to him and agree to whatever he wants. He cannot do this to me.

“So that’s your plan? To take me away from my daughter and torture me emotionally until I can no longer hold my sanity together?”

Amanda is in jail after it was proven that she killed my dad, but Klay, even as an accomplice, didn’t get charged. He was immediately released and I kinda expected that. That’s why I asked Emily a favor to do plan B in case my initial plan fails. I just hope she’s fine or we won’t be able to finish this mess. fгeewebnovёl.com

I don’t wanna live in fear anymore. I’m tired of running away, hiding and keeping my baby in the dark. I want the best life for my daughter and I won’t be able to give her that if Klay is still here, chasing me, wanting forgiveness that I don’t think he deserves.

“I don’t wanna do this too, Kelly. But I have no choice. I’m desperate.”

I lifelessly nodded. “Nice plan.”

“Kelly...”

I continued walking, ignoring him. I sobbed after I closed the door of the room I’m using. I rested my back against the closed door and covered my mouth, suppressing my sobs. I won’t give him the satisfaction of making me give up on hope. I need to get through this and end his evilness so I can be with my daughter again.

I sniffed as I wiped my tears again and stared blankly at the air. I’m here again. Back to the wall.

“Hello—”

[Where the fck are you, Phoebe?!]

I sucked my breath. “I’m going home now. Let’s talk later.”

Biting my lip, I thought of possible reasons I could give them while riding a taxi. When I got home, my heart was racing so much. Whether because I don’t know how to explain and what reason to give or because I’m gonna hide the truth about Kelly and Snow—I don’t know.

I pushed the door open and saw my little family waiting for me. Grams and grandpa were there. Mom and dad looked at me with widened eyes while my brother, with an angry face, rushed to me.

“I’m sorry. I just—”

I was taken aback when Pierce pulled me closer and hugged me so tight as if he’s so afraid of letting me go again.

My lips parted as I put my arms around his waist, hugging him back. “Pierce...”

“Where have you been, you brat? I was so scared. I thought I’m gonna lose you too.”

I bit my bottom lip. Pierce...How can I tell you that the woman you loved so dearly is alive and there’s a possibility that you have a daughter with her?
