Cold Showers — Chapter 22

She swallowed painfully before knocking on the door. She heard that unique muscular voice that had been hunting her in her dreams tell her to come in and she did just that.

Sebastian's eyes never left Jayda's body as she shut the door behind her and elegantly walked towards his desk.

"Good morning." She said to him before placing her handbag on the table and taking a seat opposite him.

"To what do I owe this visit?" He replied, hiding the fact that he was happy to see her. He was hoping she had come to apologize or plead to him to accept her back. Just like how the other ladies he had been with had done.

"Trust me, this is the last thing I ever want to do. It's just that I have no choice." She replied firmly.

Seb gave Jayda a confused look.

"I'm pregnant with our child." She announced and suddenly got irritated by Sebastian's reaction.

He started laughing as if what she said was funny.

"I knew you were no different from the others I've been with. Just like your predecessors, you've come to claim you're pregnant with my child so you can get a fortune out of me."

Jayda stood to her feet "Excuse me! Do I look like a gold digger to you?" She said with so much anger in her voice.

"Then tell me why the hell I should believe you." Sebastian rose to his feet too.

Jayda searched for the test results in her handbag that was on the edge of Sebastian's desk and threw it at him.

The envelope fell on the floor before Seb could get a grip of it so he picked it up, opened it and went through it.

"I'm sure you made this up. You paid someone to do this fake results so you can deceive me but sorry to disappoint you, Jayda, you've failed. There's no way I'm believing this!"

Words could not describe how angry Jayda was. She felt like strangling the man who was standing before her. If not for the huge mahogany desk separating them, she would have slapped some sense into him.

"I know you're not pregnant, you're just looking for ways to get money out of me and if you're pregnant it's probably for Liam, your present fuck buddy."

Jayda gave him the 'are you for real look' He knew he was the first person she gave herself to and even by the calculations on the test results, it was evident she conceived that night.

Jayda had heavy tears in her eyes but she refused to let them fall. At this moment she realized Sebastian was of no good and of no use. She would never allow her child to grow up with someone as cruel as him.

As Jay gave Sebastian a spiteful glare, she promised herself she wasn't going to be weak anymore. She was done with Sebastian. He does not deserve her or her child. She would raise her child alone and give him or her everything he or she will ever ask for.

"You and your fortune can go to hell for all I care. You mean nothing to me and MY baby. You're just a bittered individual who thinks so highly of himself. Once again, I hope you ROT in HELL."

Jayda reached for her handbag on his desk and made her way out of his office, slamming the door behind her.

Sebastian removed his suit jacket, ran his fingers through his hair and started to pace around his office. Despite the fact that the air conditioner was on, he felt like someone was strangling him.

He had expected Jayda's visit to be for any other thing except for her being pregnant.

The test results revealed she conceived the night they made love but still, he didn't want to believe that the baby was his.

He took a look through his glass wall and saw Jayda getting into the taxi. His life had never been the same since he met her.

He plopped down on the chair behind his desk, buried his face in his hands and tried to convince himself that Jayda was a liar, Jayda was just like Susan and the others and most importantly he wasn't the father of the child she was carrying. That was even if she was pregnant.
