Chapter-28

Cherish's POV:

Few days later,

I am hurt, like that women's words are hurting me. I am nothing but a thing to use, he thinks of me as someone who will give him a heir.

That's why he married me?

I hate how Riley descried their relationship to be perfect, even his parents approved of that.... now I know why he went against everyone for me.

Just because he saw some profit in me.

I thought he cared....

I hugged my arms looking out of the window, I felt tears in my eyes. Why it bothers so much?!!!

I hate being used.

I hate being substitute, now I am a way to give him heir.

But what kind of man Riccardo is to abandon a women because she can't have kids. He is so selfish.

I grasped as I felt two hands around my waist, I felt his lips on my shoulder. He whispered, "Cherish...... you will catch cold babe...."

My anger and hate reached a breaking point, the sea of betrayal was long cutting the shores.

Riccardo whispered, "Let's get dinner...."

I pulled his hand off me, I tried to walk away from him. I don't want to talk to him, I can't look in his greedy eyes.

I felt his hands on my wrist, he pulled me to face him. I swear I showed him my anger, not tears, I don't want him to look at this weak Cherish.

Riccardo asked confused, "Cherish.... what happened?....."

I pulled my hand off him looking away, he whispered, "YOU..."

I said cutting his words, "I.. I had dinner.... You can eat by yourself.... bye...."

I attempted to leave this room when he grabbed my both arms, he asked stern, "What happened?"

I whispered, "I am not in mood, Riccardo.... I am feeling little blue...." I want to just avoid it, I know asking him will hurt me more.

But I need to know why I am so fearful that Riley is his love.

Riccardo said, "Babe... I will get the doctor..."

I moved away from his concerned eyes, knowing he is just pretending. I said, "No need...." I walked out of the room.

I hate him!!!

Riccardo's POV:

I closed the door, the doctored turned to me as she said, "Mrs. Valentine looks fine..."

I said, "she was not feeling so well...." yea... that's what she said.... but she lied.

She is acting strange, I had to get a doctor after she fell asleep, and I hate to mention, she was sleeping in the guest room for some reason.

I got to this cold distant side of her after returning from the trip. I don't even know what happened behind my back.

I heard the doctor, "She is fine.... but you can call when she is awake and feels tried or something..."

After few minutes, I got in the bed debating should I take her back to our room or....

No... if she feels like sleeping here.... then fine for today.

I got comfortable beside her looking at her face.

Her cheeks are red, so is her nose. You cried and lied to me. What happened to you Cherish?

Something is not right....

Cherish's POV:

I got ready, I am thinking about freeing my mind from this topic. I don't want to be those wife's who will ruin their life on betrayal... I rather enjoy my time before I come up with a plan to end this marriage.

I noticed Riccardo looking at me through the mirror, I walked out of the walk in cabin. Why is he still at home?

I grabbed my bag from the table, checking for all the necessities. Riccardo turned me to him all of a sudden, he said, "Where are you going?"

I said, "Shopping... can't I?" I mocked, I pulled my hand off his hold, but to my surprise his hands tighten.

I heard him, "Let's go together... I have something to get..." I looked at his face, he is serious, I cannot not understand his mind.

He grabbed my hand gently taking me with him, but I got disgusted, my heart got heavy as I know truth behind his actions, he is pretending..., he just wants something from me!!!!

He just wants to be close to me, and have a child!!!

He wants a women of big family to give birth to his son!!!

I pulled my hand off him before we went to the door, he turned back to me stunned. My anger made me divert my eyes from him.

I whispered, "I.... I... I am not in mood anymore.... you go yourself!!"

I dropped my bag down, trying to get in the bed. I just want to cry but I won't....

I heard him warn, "Cherish.... You are ignoring me?"

Like he was giving me chance to rethink my actions. I finally said to him, "NO!!!... I am giving you signals that you need to f*cking leave my life!!!"

His eyes showed his anger, like they are telling me I shouldn't have said that. I moved my hands to my face looking away, while he studied my distress.

I turned to him as I said, "I need Divorce!!!... Right now!!!... F*cking right now!!!!"

Riccardo took a step closer to me he said, "and?... where will you go?..... funny to think you have that option, you have nowhere to go...."

He reminded me of my situation, My boyfriend is engaged to someone else, and my father married me to Riccardo... to technically I can only stay here.

But he is wrong, I am not someone lacking money, getting roof over my head won't be hard.

I shot back, "Where ever I can go... I will go were my heart takes me.... I have lot of places to be..... I am not your slave just because your and my dad's deal!!!!"

He said back with anger, "It was to save your life!!!! You would be f*cking dead!!!!" I looked at him, I know.... But right now, death was better than him.

He pulled his hand on my arms, pulling me closer. He warned, "You want to go to that coward right!!!!...he is going to die by my hands!!!!.... if I see you with him-"

I screamed at him, "He was better than you!!!!.. For you I am just a body!!!!!..." My eyes were dropping tears, I cannot hold it anymore.

He looked at me with a questioned look, I said grabbing his shirt, "You want me to have your child!!!!... that's all you want from me!!!!... I am so disgusted!!!!"

I thought he stepped to save me, he cared for me. That's why he married me, to protect me... taking my hate.. but he deserved it...

He saw a perfect victim in me.

Riccardo said, "Cherish...."

I cut his words, "No... I AM NOT YOUR WIFE!!!!"

I said, "Just because your ex can't get a child, you went on a hunt for another women?.... you left her.... and now you grabbed into my life..... because I can reproduce for you!!!"

I stepped back from him as I said, "I will never have kids.... I hate those things.... I hate to have your child!!!!... I will not let you use me!!! did you heard me?.. You don't love me!!!"

I heard him scream, "Cherish!!!"

I flinched a little, Riccardo said, "I do not need to prove my Love to a women who will trusts anyone but me.... when I did nothing to harm her...."

I said back, "Don't act the victim!!!"

He was to me back full of rage, his eyes showed wetness. His control was still there, his hands were shaking.

He said, "I do not need that.... and I won't leave you."

I let a deep breath as I was losing again. He said to me standing closer, "But I did wanted a child with you.... not because I am must... but because I wanted a family with you...... if I was in need of an heir, the entire city would line up.... You don't know me, let far the 'Trust'"

We both were glaring at each other, Riccardo declared to me, "But now.... I will never allow you to have my child..... I will never let that happen...... you will regret today for rest of your life, blame yourself for today.... because you lost something today.... no amount of money can buy that, Cherish...... But you are going to stay as my wife all your life........ just for my own greed to see you alive...."

He walked away banging the door, I flinched again as tears dropped down.
