Chapter Thirty: I'm screwed
Richard's POV:
Loving hurts indeed, but I can't say I regret falling in love with Kris, it made me stronger- it made me a better person than I was a few months ago, so I don't regret any second of it.
And that same love hurt like hell, funny how the love which makes you smile and laugh can hurt you, and deeply. Right now I could do nothing about this troublesome situation, I mean what can I do, when I'm locked in my own house, in my own bedroom, and suddenly a random girl whom you don't like at all, comes and tells you she's pregnant , and you know she's telling the truth.
But I know I deserve it, I deserve anything that happens to me, I thought I was hurting Kristen when we have first gotten married, but look at me now, I'm a mess.
I stared at myself one more time in the mirror, and yep- it was confirmed, I was really a mess, I had the messiest hair, I never imagined myself having dark circles, well.. at least not when a girl is involved, after all I am the Richard Anderson, the son of a multi-billionaire, and one of the most famous men in the world. And yet here I am looking like a zombie.
I walked like a zombie towards my bed, and laid quietly on it, looked like my parents were about to pay me a visit, since I was locked by his men in here.
Great, now I have to put up with his complaints.
I sighed and looked around my room, Sarah has left without me noticing, not that I mind, I really need time to think of all that has happened. I had to think of lots of things.
I was about to fall asleep, when I heard my bed room's door get unlocked, I sat upright and swallowed, I hope at least my parents would understand, or could it be Kristen?
The door of my bed room opened, and My mother got in, looking so grumpy and sad, followed by my father, who didn't look any better, they both had the same expression, sad and disappointed.
My parents walked towards me, I was standing by my bed right now, feeling a very deep ache in my chest.
"Dad.. Mom.." That's all I could say in a whisper, I couldn't face them- hell I couldn't even face myself in the mirror, even I was disappointed in myself. I wonder what Kristen might feel right now, after finding out that one of my flings is pregnant with me, I sighed as I remembered her smile, her touch, her hands on my cheeks, and her laugh whenever I teased, god I'm a jerk.
My father sighed deeply as he shook his head and gulped, he had some news papers in his right hand, which made me alert immediately.
Have that girl reported it?
I swallowed, and I knew the answer without even glancing at the newspapers, I knew my father's business can be ruined by this rumor. My parents didn't greet me, instead my father gave me one of the newspapers and as soon as I snatched it out of his hands I begun reading.
"The son of the multi-billionaire, Mr. Anderson, who is respectful among all his friends and enemies, has been caught cheating, on his wife, Kristen White. The two are married for nearly a year, although Richard Anderson's photo is taken with another girl, whom obviously he has had an affair with, Richard has always been known as a rebel, and as a major disappointment to his parents, but his current action is not just a disappointment to his parents, but is also a total disappointment to us too, as Anderson's fans, now we wonder if whatever Mr. Blake Anderson is creating is as bad as his son?"
I closed my eyes, and sighed to keep my cool, I was very frustrated now, whatever has planned this was very smart, dragging Sarah into this was a very smart move, to destroy my father, and me too, but I had no one to blame except myself, if I had been more careful and less of a jerk, none of these things would have happened, but I guess it's too late to feel regretful.
"I can't believe you Richard, how could you?" My father hissed, my mother put her hand on his right shoulder and gave it a little squeeze, she had tears pouring on her cheeks, which made the pain in chest even deeper.
"I'm... sorry.." I whispered, I really had nothing more to say, I know saying sorry is not enough, but I was truly sorry.
"You should be telling that to you wife" My mom whispered.
"What could the poor girl be feeling right now?" My father stared at me intently, and sighed once more.
"What's done is done, but I'm.. very... disappointed.. in you"
I gulped when I heard my father's last words, and I haven't realized that I was crying, until I heard my sobbing.
My vision got blurred from tears, as I fell on the ground, and was crying noisily.
"Son, why didn't you tell us that the your marriage was fake?" I gasped at what my mother said, and cried louder, so they've found out about that too.
"I was expecting grandchildren" my father said and snorted "But, I had to save your butt again, for that fake marriage too"
"What do you mean?" I whispered, barely able to make a sound in this situation.
"I had to give one million dollars to that punk, so that he wouldn't report that too" My father yelled, which made both me and my mother to flinch, god I'm screwed, really screwed.
The door of my room opened, and the least expected person came in.
There he was, Henry. My older brother.
"You guys are so loud, it's not worth it"
