Her Revenge

Chapter 4

Chapter 4

Jude Pov

Immediately I went out of the house, I breathed down in relief. “ Now it's over” I murmured and continued “ I can now be with the woman I love”.

I have always wanted to be with Gina since the day I set my eyes on her. She is beautiful, ambitious and, to top it all, she is the favorite granddaughter of the Wilson family.

I wanted more for myself, I deserve more than what I'm getting from Amelia, and now I'm finally going for it. I was still in my thoughts when my phone rang, which brought me into reality.

“ Hey Gina,” I said after picking up the call.

“How did it go?” She asked from the other side of the phone.

“ She has signed it,” I answered with a smile on my face.

“What about the child she is carrying?”

“ I took care of her and both the bastard she is carrying” I answered. “Let's meet up at the hotel”, I added, as I ended the call.

Honestly, I do not care about the child she is carrying. Who would want to have a child with a dumb woman like Amelia? I thought to myself as I booked a cab.

“ You can't do this to me!”

“ My baby, my baby, my baby”

This word rang in my ear again, followed by a scream. Suddenly, I felt a hand on me calling my name from a very far distance.

“Amelia, Amelia, Amelia” the voice called out and continued.

“ Are you okay?

I was able to lift my finger and finding it so hard to raise my head, I tried to open my eyes as I moved my head from right to left.

I finally raised my head after so many struggles as I suddenly jolted up from the bed. I looked in front of me and I saw a man standing, but my vision was blurring. I used my finger to rub my eyes and looked around the room till I finally saw him.

”Ferd!” I called out softly in shock.

“ Can you see me?” he asked as he waved his hand in front of my face.

“Yes,” I managed to say and nod in agreement.

“ I’m coming, let me go get the doctor “he explained in a relieved, happy voice, and he walked out of the room.

The doctor came in and examined me to see if I was fully recovered.

“Can you talk? The man who was wearing a white laboratory coat asked.

I nodded in agreement and answered “Yes I can.”

“ Does anything ache?” He asked, and I looked at my stomach, touching it with my hand.

“ Stomach”, I replied slowly, and he nodded.

“ How much” on a scale of 10?”

“6” I spoke in confusion, and he nodded grimly before jotting more points.

“ What is the last thing you remembered?” At his words, my mind flipped 360 degrees. I froze feeling my core churn, my hand cupped my forehand and pain shifted on the left side of my skull. I yelped in shock feeling the world slipping from my fingers, everything that happened flipped through my head, but I did not want to say anything at all because saying it hurt more.

“ Blank, everything is blank” I lied.

“It's okay, don't pressure yourself”. No stress, please” he commanded.

“ Please see me in my office before you go”. He said, looking towards Ferd and walking out of the room.

***************************

Ferd came back from the doctor's office and sat beside me holding my hands together. I stared at him for a few seconds.

“ How did I get here?” I asked.

“I came to check on you after you left the house angry and I saw you lying unconscious on the floor”, he explained, and continued “ You really can't remember anything?’ He asked.

“ Who else knows I'm here?” I asked, ignoring his questions.

“No, I didn't inform anybody” he answered.

‘“Okay,” I said in relief.” Please, I do not want anybody to know I'm admitted,” I pleaded.

“ I understand” he answered and nodded in agreement as he continued, “ The doctor said you can leave tomorrow, and he also said the memory loss is just a shock from what happened and that in no time it will come back”. He explained.

“Thank you”. I appreciated

“I will come to pick you up tomorrow,” he said as he walked out, slamming the door behind him.

***************************

“My baby, please save my baby”’ I pleaded, holding the hands of the person standing in front of me as tears were rolling down my eyes.

“ I'm sorry I can't” he rejected. “ You brought this upon yourself, fix it!!” he answered as he removed my hands and walked away.

I scream at the top of my voice, staring at him as he walks into thin air.

I jolted up from the bed, my clothes were soaked and sweat was all over my face. “ Yet another nightmare” I murmured.

I call it a nightmare because, since I came back from the hospital, I have been having the same dream all over again, and it is traumatizing.

I prepared myself for the day, not different from the past few days of my life. I have just been alone trying to figure out things on my own. I have never heard from Jude, not like I was expecting him to reach out though.

We are no longer married, so there is nothing more I need from him, not even after what he did to me.

I was holding a cup of coffee as I walked out of the kitchen, moving towards the living room. I stood in front of the TV, if I wanted to sit on the chair, when the next new heading popped in front of the TV screen very boldly.

“ Lady Wilson took her last breath at her home at 1 am this morning” with a picture of Lady Wilson beside it.

The coffee I was holding fell from my hand as it splashed on my leg. I quickly rushed into the room to pick up my phone. I tried reaching Ferd, who was the only person I could call in the family, but he didn't pick up his call.

I checked the internet, scrolling through the hot gist of the day, Lady Wilson's pictures were all over the internet with several goodbye messages. I rushed out of the house with tears on my face as I booked a cab to go home and see for myself.

************************

It has been a month since we lost Lady Wilson, a very strong woman with great humor. She was buried, and a lot of good things were said about her. Everybody was finally trying to move on with their proper daily activities.

I had planned to move back to the house. I mean I'm part of the Wilson family, not just part of them, but the eldest grandchild of the Wilson's. I do not care if it would take me to stand against my father, but I was definitely ready for anything to come. I arranged my stuff and was about to step out when my phone rang.

“ Hello, I want to speak with Miss Amelia Wilson,” said the unknown caller.

“That's me” I answered and continued “Is there a problem?” I asked.

“ My name is George Smith, and I'm a lawyer with the law firm of Smith & Associates. I practice in the area of family law cases, and I'm also the Wilson family lawyer”, he introduced.

“I'm on my way to the house”
