Timothee dragged Lucy away. He glanced at his surroundings to make sure no one had heard the conversation of the two at the moment.
“You why the hell? Sooner or later everyone will also know about this,” Lucy said casually as she crossed her arms in front of her chest.
“The baby is not necessarily my son. Don't be crazy you!”
Lucy laughed mockingly. He seemed to feel at the top of everything at this moment.
I feel grateful that both are always rotten as before. If they remain this rotten, I will not feel guilty for making the two fall into the abyss of pain. The pain should be more than what I used to feel.
Timothee seemed frustrated by Lucy's current behavior. He decided to leave the girl and walk into the house.

“Lucy pregnant?” I asked Alexander who was driving his car at the moment.
He seemed surprised by my question. He looked at me for a moment then straightened his gaze again towards the front.
“It turns out you already know.”
I laughed blandly. He hid this from me. Maybe I shouldn't have put my trust in this guy. He's not that good to be my seat.
The story of the drama that her mother watched the other day goes back through my memory. ‘Is it better that we just marry a contract? I'm not sure I'm going to live with this guy for the rest of my life. It's too dangerous, my inner’.
No further talk about Lucy. We didn't even talk to each other until we got to campus. The atmosphere was awkward too.
I hate being in this kind of atmosphere. It was as if everyone was keeping this secret from me. I hate being the only one who doesn't know when the people around me know.
I got out of Alexander's car without saying anything. Not even thanking. Say I don't know myself. But I really feel annoyed with him.
“It seems that the agreement between us should be revised in advance,”.

The atmosphere seemed so crowded as I walked out of the classroom. The classroom corridor was filled with students who were being scolded by something or someone I knew nothing about.
“Gosh, he still dared to come to campus after everything he did?”
“Didn't she sleep with Alicia's fiancee?”
Hearing my name being mentioned, I can guess who just made a fuss on campus at the moment. I didn't think he would still dare to step both feet on campus after everything he did.
“Not should he be in jail with his mother?”
“Oh. The attempted murder they did against Alicia?”
“Truly criminal. What happened to this college? They let criminals get in here.”
It was so crowded that I found it difficult to slip in among the crowd to see Lucy's expression being ridiculed at this moment. Once I made it through the crowd, the first sight I saw was Lucy standing in front of one of the students while giving the student a threatening look.
“Of course. You will not be like me!” said haughty.
“Gosh! Did you guys hear what he just said?”
“Truly shameless.”
I accept that statement in my heart. Lucy is truly the true definition of someone shameless.
“Are you not afraid of me?” ask him in a mocking tone.
“I was able to escape custody even though the person I almost killed was the son of a conglomerate. Are you sure you can get away with it if I try it on you?”
The atmosphere that had been boisterous, suddenly became silent. Not a single person dared to refute what that petty girl had just said, including me.
Lucy seemed satisfied with the reaction they showed. He really felt in the clouds. With a haughty expression, he walked away leaving the crowd.

I walked down the corridor to Alexander's room. It was late and the campus was empty. Previously I intended to contact him via cellphone, but seeing the campus that was deserted, I ventured to go to his office.
We've promised to hide our engagement plans from everyone except the next of kin. It is quite troublesome if caught especially by people on campus considering the popularity of Alexander on campus.
“Lucy?”
My footsteps stopped as soon as I saw Lucy who was still on campus. He seemed upset for what reason.
I went straight into one of the classes not far from me. I don't know why I didn't want him to know where I was. It feels lazy to have to face him today.
“Halo.”
He seems to be talking to someone over the phone.
“You won't pick me up? You mean you told me to go home alone? Are you crazy?!”
Her voice screeching. I don't know who the person talking on the phone is right now, which is clear that person has provoked his anger until his voice can shrill like that.
“You know that I'm pregnant? Pregnant your son!”
No need to ask again. I already know who he's calling with right now.
Lucy paused for a moment, then turned her gaze around. I immediately went into hiding before he found out that I was stealing his talk and Timothee's hearing right now.
“You don't know if your mom doesn't want this baby why-why?” He continued the conversation.
I was still hiding in class. I dare not peek because I still want to hear the conversation of the two.
“Look if you don't pick me up right now, I'll leak about my pregnancy to the press. Of course you remember what your mother said about your future wife whose identity must be hidden so that no one can label your offspring bad in the future. You certainly also remember that I am a criminal.”
He laughed mockingly. Even though I didn't see him, he must be underestimating Timothee right now.
“I want to know how your parents would react if you were in the media to find out about my current pregnancy.”
I heard footsteps approaching towards me. No need to think long, I immediately hid under the lecturer's desk in front of the class. The table was big enough to be able to hide my body without being caught by anyone.
“It feels like I saw someone's shadow earlier here.”
I held my breath. I'm sure it was Lucy. I almost got caught.
“Maybe it's just my feeling,” he said as he stepped away.
For a long time I was silent in a curled up position under the table. To just breathe, I was careful not to get caught. I could feel my heart beating so hard.
I peeked a little to make sure that Lucy was gone. Once I was sure, I came out of my hiding place.
An idea suddenly flashed inside my head. The right way to avenge the Jordanians who got Lucy and her mother out of jail when they almost killed me.
“Not in vain did I hide earlier,” muttered me with a smile.
