Chapter 36
36 36. He is Mine
Last night in William’s parent’s house, Lea sent Samuel home, accompanying him to the parking area. Of course, they didn’t do it because they got along well, instead, they wanted the privacy to talk more about a secret plan.
“Sam, tell me! Is Paula pregnant with your baby?” Lea whispered, failing to hide her shocked face. “I don’t like her but I had never thought that she was that kind of woman. It’s unbelievable!”
Samuel smirked, gritting his teeth in annoyance. “What? Of course not!”
“But you said that-”
“Listen, my poor Lea! Paula is indeed pregnant ... but with William’s baby, of course,” Samuel whispered, glaring at Lea who was even more speechless. She shook her head in disbelief, unable to stand the news.
“No! That’s impossible!” Lea forced herself not to buy into the fact Samuel told her. “You are not telling lies.”
“I never expect you to believe me. I don’t need your trust either. However, she is with William now. She may or may not tell him about her pregnancy,” Samuel explained the situation, making Lea’s face turn white as paper. “But, once she tells him, it will be the end of the game. Do you understand how bad your situation is?”
Samuel locked his eyes on Lea’s, showing her how serious he was. “If you want to play along with my plan ... play well.”
Samuel tapped Lea’s shoulder and entered his car. That’s when Lea grabbed his arm and prevented him from his move.
.....
“Let’s do this together!” she said in a trembling voice. Her eyes pleaded, begging Samuel to help her.
A cunning smile plastered on Samuel’s face when he knew that he was winning. He took Lea’s cold hands and said, “Come in! Let’s talk!”

In the morning, in front of the hotel room, Lea stood stiffly, glaring at Paula with a stern expression. This was part of Lea and Samuel’s plan-secretly interrogating Paula, whether she already told William about her pregnancy or not.
“Lea?” Paula greeted her visitor in shock. She was expecting Danica, not Lea. “Sorry, I ... have nothing to wear,” she added, realizing how indecent her appearance was in front of Lea. It was like telling Lea that she spent the hot and sexy night with William without saying a word.
Paula cleared her throat, waiting for Lea’s response. Honestly, she was not in the best condition for arguing with anybody.
“Are you surprised?” Lea smirked. “You shameless woman! You said that you will give William back to me. Look! What are you doing here?”
Paula gulped, feeling a little guilty. “How did you know we are here?” She said, crossing her arms on her chest. She tried to look nonchalant, keeping her composure in check.
“Does that matter? The problem here is, why do you still fuck my man when you already promise that you will not do that anymore?” Lea couldn’t contain her anger. Her heart burned to see Paula wearing William’s shirt, something that she never had a chance to do. Let alone seeing Paula’s natural rosy cheeks, indicating that she had mind-blowing sex with her beloved William.
“I bumped into William last night ... unintentionally. I was hurt, he helped me,” Paula replied, trying to stay calm. “As you can see. He helped me treat my wounds,” Paula pointed out her knees, showing Lea the solid proof of her explanation.
Lea smiled bitterly. Without permission, she forced her way into the room. Paula tried to block it, “Lea, you are trespassing!”
“As if I give a fuck!” Lea shoved Paula’s body and walked deeper into the room. Her eyes roamed the lavish room, finding the shattered clothes and the naked William who was sleeping soundly like a baby. Just how tired he was? She guessed that the man would not be able to wake up soon.
Lea gritted her teeth out of anger. She snapped, “Is this what you casually call a ‘help’? Are you always fuck the man who helps you? Disgusting! Do you have no pride at all?”
Lea’s words burned Paula’s ears like fire. “Lea! William and I are married. That’s just what a married couple does!” Paula’s brows furrowed. Perhaps, she was wrong. But she was not that wrong. “I was banging my husband. My legal partner. We still have our rings on.”
“How funny! Soon-to-be ex-es still care to do marital duties in the middle of their divorce process!” Lea said sarcastically, lifting Paula’s torn dress and shoving it immediately. “What was that for? Goodbye sex?”
“It’s not your business!” Paula exclaimed. She pointed at Lea. “You have no right to judge me!”
Lea nodded, looking at anything but Paula. She bit her lower lip, trying to collect her senses. But, her heart kept on fire when she recalled the kiss marks spread on Paula’s body. It was a lot. It was evidence of how passionate the night was. Lea could not accept the reality.
“I can’t believe that William was willing to do you. Did you trick him? You forced yourself on him, no?” Lea turned her face to Paula, throwing a disgusting look. “Do you try to get pregnant with his baby so you can tie him up later?” She kept accusing Paula out of rage.
Paula was surprised to hear Lea’s statement. It seemed unlikely that she had said it by mistake. Did anyone tell Lea that she was pregnant? Was that a pure coincidence?
“Lea! Even if I am pregnant with his baby, I will never use the baby to tie him up! That’s my rule. Don’t you try to belittle me! I am not that low,” Paula defended herself. For her, it was a sin to use the innocent one to tie the father. Especially if he didn’t even want to have the baby.
Lea froze, hearing Paula’s words. She could rest assured now since Paula didn’t tell William about the pregnancy yet. It was her chance to prevent Paula from telling William the truth.
“Paula, look! William and I are getting married soon after your divorce. We will be happy in no time. Please don’t spoil our happiness!” Lea grabbed Paula’s arms, looking at her with pleading eyes. “After a long time, William’s parents finally agreed to our relationship. I thank you for helping us. However, please don’t take this happiness away from us anymore. Please, Paula! I beg you. I know that you are a kind woman.”
Paula looked down because Lea was shorter than her. If she refused Lea’s request, she would surely look like a wicked woman who snatched someone’s man. In fact, who snatched who? William was her legal husband. He was all hers-protected by the law.
“Look! I have spare clothes for you. It is mine but it’s the biggest size I have.” Lea shoved a paper bag to Paula, hoping that her rival would take it without questioning her act.
“You prepared a change of cloth for me?” Paula asked curiously.
“Oh, I bring it-just in case,” Lea lied. Of course, she had no idea about that kind of thing. It was Samuel’s order to bring spare clothes for Paula. As an experienced man, Samuel could easily predict what happened last night.
Paula smirked. The change in Lea’s attitude was indeed disgusting, she wanted to kick her out of the room. But, she couldn’t handle her presence much longer. She couldn’t help taking Lea’s clothes and then quickly left the room.
Without waiting any longer, Paula picked up her undies from the floor and quickly changed her clothes in the bathroom. Lea’s loose t-shirt and pants were fit for Paula’s body, even though it was a bit tight.
A few minutes later, Paula came out of the bathroom and found Lea busy with her cell phone. Lea’s attention turned to Paula who looked like an older sister wearing her baby sister’s clothes.
“I think it’s ... quite decent,” Lea said, hesitantly.
Paula lifted her eyebrows and said, “Decent? Yeah, maybe.”
Without saying another word, Paula took her bag and prepared to leave. She wore her heels and felt a slight pain in her legs. She stopped a little to ease the pain.
“I will go.” Paula approached Lea and said goodbye.
Leah nodded, smiling tightly. “Be careful! You are injured.”
Paula shook her head. “I can call a cab. No biggie.”
Slowly, Paula walked out of the room. But suddenly, a dark thought flashed through her head. She was resentful of being kicked out like a homewrecker. She wasn’t one.
How about if she taught Lea a little lesson? She deserved it, no?
Paula stopped walking and turned to Lea. “Oh! I forgot to tell you an important thing. You should make sure you can satisfy him in bed,” Paula said with a faint smile, “because William said, he can’t get enough of me.”
Lea’s eyes widened. She couldn’t believe it.
“If you have difficulties finding his sensitive spots, I’m more than willing to help. You can learn a lot from me,” Paula sneered with a faint smile on her face. “Oh, one more. His size is huge. It will hurt for the first time. However, once you get used to his size, you are on cloud nine.”
Lea’s eyes popped out. How could Paula say those things to her?
However, Paula was not done yet. She brought her mouth closer to Lea’s ears and whispered, “Be careful! I guess, his cock is bigger than your baby’s father’s.”
Paula patted Lea’s shoulder softly. After that, she left the room with ease, leaving Lea with her grudge.
