Chapter 3 All For Love
“Why are you so fucking stubbom, it’s just a simple apology Richard yelled at me.|||
He’s been holding me down for at least two minutes and now the floor was filled with blood from the jagged shards of broken vase that pierced my knees
I stared at him, my eyes shining in defiant, “Im not your fucking dog that will do whatever you s choice”
Richard’s eyes reddened with anger as he pulled my hair tighter making me wince in pain
say, Richard, I’m a person and I have a
“What choice do you think you have, bitch? You are useless! You’ve lived with me and gotten so many abortions over the years that your womb is damaged. No one would accept a barren woman like you Richard yelled.
His word’s broke my heart into a thousand pieces but my eyes widened at his words.
“Abortions? I just had one. Richard, what are you talking about?” I asked, my voice quivering
Richard scoffed, “Did you really think I’d ever want to have a child with a woman like you?!
That’s when everything clicked
The procedure I went through at the hospital last month the doctor said excessive child loss had caused me to be barren.
I shook my head, my lips quivering, “No.no Tell me you didn’t”
Richard smirked, “Oh, but I did
The rage I had been feeling earlier disappeared as my shoulders sunk and all I felt was a cold emptiness.
“How could you be so cruel? So all the times I had a miscamage it was because you secretly fed me abortion pills, I stated sadly Richard shrugged, “I didn’t know you were so smart, Olivia, else you would have known your place a long time ago and that’s beneath me as my dog!”
He pushed me away as I stumbled to the floor. Elena gasped and ran toward me.
“Oh Richard, how could you be so cruel to my sister?” she cried, holding me.
“But Elena, I was doing it for you I didn’t want to have any illegitimate child with her, Richard said.
Elena flashed me a wicked smile as she whispered in my ears, “Barren bitch, I took your man and your womb.” Then she turned to Richard and glared at him. “Help me get her up. Richard, she’s lost a lot of blood.“1⁄2
Before Richard could come toward me I pushed Elena away from me!!
She gasped and stumbled while Richard quickly caught her, his face morphed into anger as he glared at me.
“What did you do that for? Someone who is kind enough to help you” he snapped
I bowed my head on the floor, hitting my forehead repeatedly seven times.
When I raised my head up there was blood on the floor
Tm sorry, Elena,” I said, then I stared at Richard, “Is the apology enough?”
Richard looked surprised as he stuttered, “Well I only asked you to say sorry and not hurt yourself.”
I wiped off the blood from my forehead as I stared at them, “You two deserve each other.
Then I stood up and limped to my bedroom. I slammed the door shut and headed into the bathroom.
The moment I slid into the bathtub and turned on the shower a sob broke free from my throat!!
Throughout the three years I dated Richard I got pregnant five times.E
Richard was never careful. He would always say. “Livia, I love you, it’s not my fault I can’t control myself around you”
And like a fool I would stupidly blush and giggle unknown to me that he was damaging me.
The last four times I had miscarriage a day after telling Richard the news.
Unknown to that Richard had been the one poisoning me whenever he brought me my morning tea
This fifth time he had advised me to go do the procedure in the hospital then after it we’d get married which was also why I decided to propose to hem first.
After the procedure the doctor had told me that excessive loss of my previous pregnancy had reduced my chances of ever having a child to twenty percent which is the same as saying I was never going to have a child
I had told Rochard when I turned that night and he consoled me i
He
i
told me that its tus faut and he didn’t care if I didn’t have any kids we could easily adopt
I dont know fed us to insult me one day when he was the cause of my misfortune
The tears wouldnt stop flowing as my heart broke again I didn’t think it was possible to feel more pain but guess I was wrong!!
“No
you crying
always known that you’d never get what you want?” Elena’s smug voice sounded in front
