It’s Not Easy To Raise Our Child Alone
“He will live with my name forever on his chest,” hearing Ragnar Marshall say this, Brigitta knew he had no intention of killing Alex.
“He’s your ex husband and probably the father of your children. How can I kill him?” Ragnar Marshall asked. As if he knows what she was thinking.
“He’s not the father of my children, sir. That I’m sure of.” Brigitta said confidently but Ragnar Marshall did not believe her.
“But I assume you don’t know whom their father is.”
“I do not,” she lied. She felt bad for lieng to him despite all the good he had done for her but she believed it’s not the right time to tell him. To her, she must be sure he has fallen in love with her before she can reveal the secret about the babies to him. Someone who truly loves you will not want to take your babies away from you. This was what she believed.
“You may want to have a conversation with your ex husband so I’ll leave you.” Ragnar Marshall stood, he dismissed every men in the room and also stepped out, leaving Brigitta and Alex alone in the room.
“Please… help me…. this suffering is too much.” He pleaded.
“I’ve never seen a man as wicked as you. I can’t believe you and I were once married. What exactly do you want with me that you can not get from other women? What do I have that other women do not have? You even have my stepsister as your fiancee, what exactly is your problem?”
“And even worse, you killed my bestfriend. I can never forgive you.”
Alex cried out loud, “this pain is too much…” He cried harder, “I’ll do anything you want, just get me out of here please.” He begged earnesly.
“If you can raise Nikolai from the dead, then I’ll get you out of here.”
“You know… it’s not possible, I have sinned… please…. forgive me.” Alex was in so much agony. Infact, he would have preferred death to this. He felt like his head will fall from his neck. The pain was too intense.
“You are now at the mercy of Ragnar Marshall and there is nothing I can do about it,” she said.
“Please…” She begged.
“Where’s my son, Chester? Perhaps if you provide him, I can help speak to Ragnar Marshall about your release.” He said.
“Your son had been taken away… from me…” He said in agony.
“Huh? By who? Who is my son with now?”
“He’s safe.” He struggled to swallow a mouthfull of saliva, “he’s with… the first prince of Maridonna.”
“How do I get him out?”
“I can help you if you release me, “he said, still groaning hard in pain.
“You are a lair. You won’t be released unless I found my son.” She said.
“Brigitta, let me help you. I promise you that I’ll bring Chester back.” Brigitta turned from him and began to walk away.
“Brigitta! Brigitta! Brigitta!” he called repeatedly but Brigitta turned deaf ears.
When Brigitta got outside, he saw Ragnar Marshall watching Beocca and other senior officers training the younger ones.
She walked up to him and thanked him again. “If not because of you, my kids and I would have been in Maridonna right now.”
“And my son, Chester…”
“I know he’s with Guthred.” He answered before she could even say what Alex told him.
“Guthred?”
“Guthred is the first son of the emperor of Maridonna kingdom, the first of his fifteen brothers.” He explained.
“Oh my days! How will I ever get my son back from him?” She asked, wondering secretly how he even knew that much. Alex had told her that Chester is with Maridonna’s Prince and Ragnar Marshall just said the same. Indeed, Ragnar Marshall’s spies are very active, more active that she thought.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“I’m working on it. If only you’ll be patient.” He said. “Go ahead and join the training, let me see how far you’ve grown.”
Brigitta nodded and went to join those that are being trained.
Ottar walked inside the arena and walked towards Ragnar Marshall, “sir!”
“What’s the matter?”
“Have you considered performing a DNA test on Brigitta’s children? We found out Brigitta’s kids are a product of a one night stand she had years ago. Sir, you’ve had one night stands with many women, what if in some twist of fate, you are the children’s father? Infact, the kids had the same resemblance with you.”
“You may be right. Afterall, Cassie’s baby survived nine months, you can go ahead and perform the test. Make sure I’m the first person to see the results.” He ordered.
“Got it, sir.” Afterwards, Ottar walked away.
While he stood and watched, he adored how Brigitta had grown so fast. Faster than others. She was a mother of five kids yet she learns this faster. He wondered how a woman as beautiful as her can have a rough and very challenging life. He felt like she deserves a man that will love and care for her and her kids, unfortunately, he wasn’t that type of man.
His phone rang and seeing that the caller ID was Cassie, he hung the call up. He doesn’t answer Cassie’s call at all. He doesn’t like her neither does he like to have conversations with her. It’s enough that she’s in his house with their baby.
Then a message popped in to his phone, it was from Cassie, it reads, “you have abandoned me Mr. Ragnar , this was not what you promised me. We work in the same company and live in the same house but it’s been two weeks and I’ve not set my eyes on you. It hurts.”
Ragnar then called her line, “I have been busy ”
“I know, Mr Ragnar but it’s not easy to raise our baby alone. Our child is one year old now, he needs you just as he needs me.” She said pitifully.
He thought of what he can do to make it up and said, “I’ll spend this night with you. Also, prepare dinner for me, we will eat together.”
“Thank you so much, sir.” She thanked him, she was so happy but also has a plan.
