Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything
Chapter 342 - It's Not Your Business AnymoreIt had been a week since Kumala was hospitalized for a relapse of acute diabetes. While being treated in the hospital, she was given imported medicines as recommended by the doctor and the results were very satisfying. Not only was her condition getting better, but her immune system was also getting stronger.
After Lisa finished with the payment and administration, Kumala was allowed to go home by the doctor who treated her for a week. Lisa was so happy to see her mother getting better. Fortunately, she was given permission from her superior to take two weeks off to take care of Kumala after being hospitalized.
That night, after Lisa helped Kumala with chores, she asked Kumala for permission to take a short walk, enjoying the bustle of Jakarta after a few months living in Bekasi. Sometimes she missed all the chaos in the capital city. It was strange, but it couldn't be explained in a logical way. Like there was a bond between Lisa and her hometown— a tough and modern city but still had a conservative side in every corner.
Lisa used her time to tour one of the city parks as she missed the street food vendors in her hometown. Seeing the lines of those food tents along the city park reminded her of the time when she was still working at the Petersson Communication company, when she was looking for food with Andien until they both lost track of time.
The sparkling night lights that illuminated the metropolitan city always made Lisa reminisce. It was as if her soul had become one with the city which was famous for its traffic jams.
Lisa sat on one of the park benches facing a fountain. She stared blankly at the tinge of colors of lights shining on it. She was lost in thought, enjoying the twists and turns of the beautiful fountain.
Without realizing it, something woke her from her reverie. About two meters in front of her stood a tall, lanky man with golden hair. The man was wearing a black shirt lined with a matching jacket. Both of his legs were clad in blue jeans, complemented by a pair of brown boots.
His appearance was not what Lisa usually saw. Tonight, the man looked casual but still charming!
Lisa immediately became alert, in case the man bothered her at any time. She sharpened all five senses while grabbing any blunt object she could turn into a weapon.
The golden-haired man approached closer with gentle steps, as if he had no ill intention of hurting Lisa.
There were no suspicious movements but getting closer to the golden haired man made her fear even more tingle. She got up from the lawn chair, putting up a pose to fight.
With a fierce and piercing look, Lisa said, "Oscar! Why are you following me here! You're really a joke, do you want to be a stalker?"
Her style of speech immediately changed 180 degrees as the man got closer. She felt that his presence was a threat. Lisa braced herself so as not to be fooled by Oscar's charming appearance even in simple clothes.
Without realizing it, her right hand faced Oscar with a key. "I'll give you this if you approach me!"
"Hey Lisa, calm down… I just wanted to talk to you. Please, lower the key, you look ridiculous!" Oscar replied, frowning.
If Lisa had met Oscar when she had just graduated from college, it could be that she was stunned and fell into his arms easily because of his charm, which was very difficult for any woman to refuse. However, Lisa was all grown up. Moreover, she already felt the pain of being betrayed by this white man that made her suffer once.
Lisa didn't want to be consumed by her stupidity anymore. It was impossible to come back with Oscar again. To her, Oscar was nobody, nothing but a complete stranger.
The man raised his hands as if he was a criminal caught by the police. He lowered his head and looked into Lisa's dark eyes.
"Lisa, please. I just wanna talk. If I hurt you here, you are free to shout as loud as you can so that the masses will beat me," he said earnestly.
Lisa paid attention to Oscar's body language, making sure that the man didn't fool her like he used to. Then she crossed her arms and asked, "What do you want to say to me?" Why did you know that I'm here?"
"Lisa, I'm here to talk about our child." Oscar's voice sounded low and serious. His eyes also radiated sincerity.
The last sentence seemed like a fire burning Lisa's heart to the ground. "Hah!? What child do you mean? I don't understand!" She snapped. Lisa hadn't even told Andien about her pregnancy, how did this golden haired man know that she was pregnant with that man's child?!
"Lisa, that child in your womb... I hope you take care of it until it is born. Do you understand?"
But the way he spoke it turned those words into a spear that stabbed directly into Lisa's heart. That sharp but thoughtful gaze also burned her rage.
Lisa chuckled when she heard that last sentence. She snorted, showing her arrogant side to show that she was immune to money and fame. "Heh, do you think just because you just have a lot of money you can toy with my life? This child has nothing to do with you, so please don't tell me what to do with it!"
Oscar's face suddenly turned gloomy as he was getting dumbfounded by Lisa's piercing words. "Lisa, the child you are carrying is mine too! I'm here to take responsibility for your pregnancy! Please, don't give up on our child. Let it be born safely."
The man approached her on his knees, staring at her with a pitiful face and clasped hands like a sinner asking for forgiveness. However, Lisa wouldn't be fooled by Oscar's seduction this time. She glared at the man's blue eyes and said, "Haha, I like seeing foreigners kneeling to a native like me. Do you get it now? Just because you have so much money doesn't mean you can always look down on me, a native to this land! Besides, how are you really sure that this child is yours? Don't be delusional."
"Lisa, I'm sure you won't love another man beside me. I'm sure the child you are carrying is mine too!" Oscar's voice sounded steady without a doubt.
Hearing the man made Lisa's heart soften without her knowing it. Her fortress began to collapse. In fact, the child she was carrying at this time was indeed hers and Oscar's. However, Lisa didn't want to show her weakness in front of that golden haired man.
"Okay, okay, I admit that this is your child, but we're divorced. It's not your business if I want an abortion or not, right? You have nothing to do with me since I'm no longer your wife. Never mind, go away from here. I don't want to meet you again, I've had enough. After all, you married Clara, right? Go ahead and take care of your new wife!" Lisa said in a condescending voice. She was satisfied that she could belittle her ex-husband without the slightest mercy.
Oscar's face grew grim. Those sharp words pierced his heart, plunging him into endless darkness. The golden-haired man mustered up his courage to tell the truth, but he could not help but feel the rage that was already burning in his heart.
The man got up from where he knelt and said, "Lisa! Just so you know, I'm not marrying Clara! And you're carrying my child now. Do you have the heart to abort our child?"
"You're not married to Clara? Haha, do you want to lie to me again? I don't care, and I don't believe you, bitch!" Lisa replied in a condescending tone.
"Yes! We are not married. What happened at that time was not like what you thought!" Oscar couldn't hold back his emotions in front of Lisa. The man raised his voice until people started to turn their attention to them.
"Hey, listen, you damn white! Whether you're getting married or not, it's not my business. You don't have any say for this child I carry, so whatever I want to do with it, you stay out of it.. You can't just tell me what to do as if I'm your slave!" Lisa replied sharply.
