While I Was Bleeding Out, He Lit Lanterns For Her

Katie Oettgen

As I lay on the floor of our manor, bleeding out from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, I used my last ounce of strength to call my husband, Cole. I begged him for help, my vision blurring. But the only thing I heard was the clinking of champagne glasses and his mistress's giggle in the background. "Stop the drama, June," Cole snapped, his voice cold. "We're about to go on stage. Don't call again." He hung up, leaving me to die alone on the Persian rug while he accepted an award with another woman on his arm. I woke up in the hospital days later. My baby was gone. They had removed my fallopian tube. Cole finally arrived, smelling of expensive scotch and his mistress's perfume. He didn't hug me. He didn't cry. Instead, he leaned over my hospital bed, pressing his knee into the mattress until my fresh stitches tore open and bled. "You embarrassed me by calling an ambulance," he hissed. "My mistress, Alycia, says you're faking it. Clean yourself up." He left me bleeding again to go announce a $10 million donation to Alycia's "groundbreaking" medical research. I stared at the TV screen, numb. The research Alycia was taking credit for? It was mine. I wrote that patent years ago under a pseudonym. They thought I was just a poor, orphan housewife who needed Cole's money to survive. They had no idea I was actually a billionaire scientist hiding my identity. I pulled the IV needle out of my arm. A drop of blood fell onto the divorce papers I had been hiding. I didn't wipe it off. I signed my name right over it. Then I walked into the bank, reactivated my dormant account with $128 million, and bought the penthouse directly overlooking Cole's house. The mourning widow is dead. The avenger is born.

The recent discovery riled Gilbert up as he paced restlessly in the living room. How will he tell his parents about it? What will he tell his fiance?

"Why does this girl want to kill me, a common D&C she has refused? He said to no one in particular. He couldn't understand why she wouldn't obey his demand. Was it that difficult?

" Anyway, it is not like I will marry her. So it is her choice" he said once again. He just couldn't hold it in not when it was a threat to his life. His dream life. A life he had planned out.

" Nicole is pregnant, it is not like it is my fault., if Nicole hadn't been too dumb to take care of herself, she wouldn't be pregnant" he rants again pacing continually.

" I wouldn't be in this mess"

Gilbert Walter who was trying to console his guilty conscience added but quickly fixed his face when he heard his father's voice from his study room.

Dr. Jaime Walter was seated in his study room angry about the news he learned about his son earlier that day: that

his beloved Gilbert has impregnated a high school teenager." Nicole" a few day to his wedding with Hillary Fort.

What a tragic news!

"madam, where is your son...?, Dr. Jaime Walter shouted.

As Gilbert was going to see his father in his study, One could hear Dr.Jaime Walter's voice from the living room,

"Honey, have you seen Gilbert today,?

" No, I haven't "Mrs. Walter replied. That voice Mr Walter knew it very well. Perhaps she thought he was joking.With rage in his eyes, "Mrs. Walter", his wife was stunned.

"Is this not your son,? Gilbert where are you coming from?"Dr. Jaime Walter questioned.

With the looks on his father's face,

Gilbert knew exactly what was going on. That someone has let the cat out of the cage,

"Daddy I can explain" Gilbert already knew where the conversation was heading.....he knelt,

Mrs. Walter, Gilbert's mum who has never seen his son like that was lost in confusion.

"what is going on? Mrs. Walter questioned?

" Why don't you ask your incompetent son," said Mr Walter pointing fingers at Gilbert.

Mrs. Walters has always been on the team Gilbert, because he is her only child.

"Sorry to break the news. but Nicole is pregnant with Gilbert's child" Nicole Miller is the daughter of Janet, their housemaid. She had lost her husband sir Miller in a car accident fifteen years ago who was one of Dr. Jaime's Walter staff at his hospital. Leaving Nicole Miller and Janet with nothing to hold on to. Dr.Jaime Walter felt it was his responsibility to take care of Janet and her child since her husband Pius Miller was a loyal staff member.

Ever since the incident, Dr. Jaime Walter sees them as his own family.He expected Mrs. Walter to see them like family as well.

But Mrs. Walter has refused, because she believes that a butterfly can never be a bird.

A few months back,when Gilbert came back from college, he had always had eyes for Nicole. With the fear of his mum, he had to withdraw.He tried being an elder brother to Nicole, but Nicole seems to be too attractive to him. Regardless of what Mrs. Walter thinks.

The feeling was still there, although Mrs. Walter had earlier warned Gilbert to avoid Nicole because it will be a shame if her colleagues were to find out her son is in love with her maid.

"Gilbert, tell your mother what you did"

"em....hmm, Nicole is pregnant for me."

"What is the devil's name are you saying? Mrs. Walter shouted in disbelief.

" I don't believe you, she added.
