Uncle's Savings Lover

Section 17

Elena got word that this afternoon she had an impromptu class. Without buying time he immediately headed to the campus.

Until the afternoon Elena was still busy in the campus library looking for material for tomorrow. He had to go to the bookstore to find the book he needed, because the book was not in the library.

By evening Elena was still on her way home. He was worried that Nathan would find him, because his phone ran out of battery, so the man would not be able to contact him. Elena tapped her finger on the wheel, waiting for the traffic jam with boredom. He was very tired, wanting to rest his body immediately.

2 hours later, Elena had just arrived at the mansion. Elena stopped by the mansion for a bit to pick up some of her books left there. He got out of the car while stretching out his stiff hands. In the courtyard of the mansion parked in Nathan's car, it seems like the man did not return to his apartment. Elena continued her halted steps, climbing the steps of the stairs to the main door of the mansion.

"You doubt your own flesh and blood?" Sisil said in a high tone.

Nathan stood up by putting his arms in his pants pocket. "How did you get pregnant? The doctor told me you'd never be able to get pregnant again." Nathan's lips look tightened. He had just arrived at the mansion, he left his wife for a few days on the grounds that there was a business trip abroad.

"But I'm actually pregnant now, if you still doubt it read the letter from the doctor you're waiting for." Sisil replied with a hunting breath.

"It's not that easy you can lie to me!"

Sisil widened his eyes, he considered lying to the man. "How could you say that to me."

"I haven't touched you in a long time, how could you possibly be pregnant?"

"I have plenty of evidence if you still deny it. Did you forget what happened when you raped me a few weeks ago?"

Nathan fell silent. He vividly remembers the moment he raped his wife, as he was heartbroken by her jealousy towards Elena.

"No, I can't believe it! I want us to separate." Nathan said firmly, not at all feeling pity with tears flowing down Sisil's face.

"You can't look at me when I'm pregnant with your child!" Sisil said squeezing firmly beside her dress. "Isn't this what you wanted a long time ago, to have a child?"

"But not for now. And if you're really pregnant, is that child purely mine?"

Sisil gasped at Nathan's silly question. "You think I have another man?" Sisil shook his head weakly with tears streaming down.

"It could be."

"I'm pregnant with your son, why is it so hard for you to trust me. Is it because women don't know themselves?" Sisil is already at the highest level of emotion.

Nathan stared intently at his wife, "Who do you mean?

"I know, you know who I mean. You guys are so mean." Sisil approached Nathan who closed his lips tightly. Maybe the man was thinking of an excuse to get away from Sisil.

"So you already know that? That's so much better, I don't have to bother explaining everything to you anymore." Nathan said calmly. "I can do whatever I want, keep it!" Nathan said with his arrogant face.

"Are you still going to go and vote with my niece?" Sisil said in the middle of his sobbing, the woman was already very frustrated. "Don't you think about our baby-to-be? I swear the baby I'm carrying is your son." Sisil rested under Nathan's feet, pleading with the man.

Nathan pushed Sisil's shoulder hard, causing him to tumble backwards landing his butt hard enough on the cold tile.

"What did Uncle do? Snapped at Elena who was suddenly already in the room. "Aunty's pregnant, you can harm her womb!" Elena looked at Nathan.

"Elena, what are you doing here?" Nathan said as he widened his eyes, seeing Elena was there. Maybe the girl heard everything she said, Nathan thought.

Not wanting to respond to Nathan's words, Elena helped Sisil up and led her Aunty into the room.

"I'm sorry!" Elena said with a sob. He heard the debate coming from the mouths of the two. Elena is shocked when Sisil learns of her dark relationship with Nathan. He was ready to hate Sisil.

Elena was silent for a moment, she thought Nathan was doing that in order to immediately formalize their relationship. But he could not allow Sisil who he already considered as his own parents to be hurt. Elena was in a confusing position.

"I-I've been caught up in the game Uncel made. From the beginning I had rejected him but he always forced me, until finally I fell in real love with him. I'm sorry, Aunty." Elena clasped firmly into Sisil's cold hand.

Sisil glanced at the cynical Elena. "You can take my husband when you know I'm pregnant with his child?"

Elena stared at Sisil's scarred face, she couldn't possibly be that long. "No," Elena replied weakly.

"I want you out of my husband's life!"

The girl closed her eyes, the words Sisil said like the tip of a knife that was mercilessly slashed into her chest, were very painful.

The initial intention was just to pick up a book, but Elena instead witnessed a great fight that was all related to her. He was the trigger.

"Is Uncle really going to divorce Aunty Sisil?" Elena asked looking from behind the sturdy body that was standing on the balcony of the 3rd floor of the mansion.

"Yes!" Nathan replied without turning his body.

"No! Uncle can't part with Aunty, just remember you're gonna have a baby. Don't you feel sorry for him if he's born into a family that isn't whole?" Elena stood beside the man.

"That's not my son?" Nathan replied flatly.

The girl looked quickly at Nathan." You're not sane, are you? If you're not the father, then who?" Elena replied with a discordant laugh.

"There's another man."

Elena's hand pushed Nathan's arm for the man to face her. "That's just your wits? Aunty couldn't have done that."

"I'm speaking the truth, it's been a long time since he cheated behind my back!" Nathan wastes his rough breathing.

Elena bit her fingernails slowly. "He's the only family I've got, please rethink your plan. I was hoping you'd change your mind."

"Didn't you want to be with me?" Nathan looked inside the girl.

"I don't want to be happy above the suffering of others. If it could make Aunty happy I would be willing even if my heart would be hurt! He's been so kind to me, he's been taking care of me since my parents left." Elena buried her face in the chest of Nathan's field, pouring out her grief there.

"I stick to my original desire. I'll soon make you bear my last name!" Nathan said as he kissed Elena's head.

Elena's heart and mind are never synchronized, she is still lulled by Nathan's sweet promises even though he has tried to reject them. He wants to get Nathan back to his real owner.

"I'd be so wicked if I agreed to your invitation." Elena pressed her opener against Nathan's waist.

"I'll keep pushing until you're willing to be my wife!" Nathan said with emphasis.

Elena took off her embrace, went away from Nathan while rubbing the corner of her watery eyes. Elena's way of life was becoming more and more complicated, filled with twists and turns and tears.
