《The Revenge Of A Businessman》Chapter 22

Mia's P.O.V

I just got home. I had gone to the doctor and my doubts were confirmed. I'm indeed pregnant with Jacob's child. I don't know what to do. I don't have anyone in this world. I had a grandma who also left me. On this I started crying. I started remembering everyone: my parents, my grandma and... Jacob.

What's going to happen to me? Will I be able to support this child and me financially? All these questions keep coming in my mind.

I have some money which would be of help only for a few months. No matter what I won't be able to abort this child. I'll keep it and make sure that both of us can survive even if I have to inform Jacob about this.

Every day is the same for me. I wake up, run to the bathroom to remove all my food from last night, take a shower and prepare the soup which Jacob had made for me when I was sick back then. I had managed to get that recipe from him once when he came to give me the soup. This is the only food that stays in for a long time.

A month has passed and my routine has still not changed. Today I have another appointment with the doctor.

"Hello doctor." I said to her when I entered her office.

"Hi Mia, come in. Lay down on that bed there." She said.

I lay down there and soon she started to check if everything was fine. At the end of the check-up I was told that the baby is fine but the baby is not getting enough nutrients so she gave me some medicines to help me from vomiting my food.

On the way back home I decided that I have to tell Jacob about the child. I mean he has the right to know after all he's the child father. On reaching home I took the phone and sat on the sofa. I did not have the courage to tell him. I decided to postpone the phone call. Later I'll do so when I have more courage.

After one month:

A month has passed and I still have not informed Jacob about my pregnancy. Every time I feel weak and afraid that Jacob will refuse to acknowledge the child. Not that I need him to survive but the child will need him. Someday he or she will ask me about their father then what will I say?

This time I got some courage and grabbed the phone and dialled Jacob's number and waited.

"This number does not exist." a voice said on the phone.

"But how come" I said to myself.

I redialled and I heard the same thing. I decided to phone Gabriel. They are friends and I'm sure he has Jacob's number.

"Hello." Gabriel said on the phone.

"Hey Gabriel" I said.

"Mia. OMG are you ok?" He asked.

"Yeah I'm fine." I lied.

"Ok. So how come you are calling me?" He asked.

"Umm can I get the phone number of Jacob please?" I asked.

"Umm yeah write it." He said.

"Ok." I said and started writing the number he gave me.

"Thanks Gabriel. I owe you." I said to him.

"Oh it's alright. I know you want the number to congratulate him." He said.

"Uh I'm sorry but congratulate him for what?" I asked clueless.

"He is engaged to his ex-fiancée. I don't know when but I found out this morning on the net. His fiancée had given a statement saying she is engaged to Jacob but did not say anything more than this." He said.

On hearing this I hung up not wanting to hear anymore about it. Tears started falling and I felt heartbroken again. How many times will Jacob break my heart? But I have to stay strong for my child, mine only not Jacob's.

I dialled the number that Gabriel gave me so that I can tell him about the child. I don't want to break their relationship but Jacob has a right to know. It's him who has to decide if he will be a part of my child's life. I won't return to him or have any relationship with him.

I dialled the number and saw that it is already registered on my mobile. That means Gabriel has given me his previous number which do not exist now.

How more fucked up can my life become?
