Stacey's POV
I quickly put myself together and got to the door to see who it was, it was Pearl.
"Mom said I should bring you these, I told her you don't need it and that you've got plenty of food but she insisted"
"And why are you sweating by the way?" She asked suspiciously as I tried to stop her from entering the room but she forced her way inside and found Mason.
"Ohh Stacey!" She called my name and smiled
"What?" I asked as Mason just stood there like a dummy.
"You're getting some even in the hospital?" She asked sarcastically and laughed, it was so awkward.
Pearl left the room and headed back home and then Mason started to panic.
" Oh my God, what do we do if Thomas finds out she just guessed exactly what we were doing Stacey"
I laughed and said to him " relax, okay?" Stacey is my sister and nothing of the sort is happening".
Pearl started coming to the mansion more often than she used to
I for one just thought she liked the luxury but then she would make weird comments like "you have the mansion and two men all to yourself, I would kill to be in your shoes".
I would just laugh it out and pretend like it's okay but deep down it freaked me out.
She would even come around when I wasn't home but it was fine because again, she's family.
I tried to reach out to Mason but he's been acting really weird these past couple of days, I mean he's probably still scared about Stacey walking in on us…
It was a Sunday evening and Thomas came to knock on my door, I thought it was sex and I wasn't looking forward to it I must say.
But then he said "I have investors coming in from Africa, they should be here tomorrow morning and I'm only telling you this because they can't trust a company whose CEO doesn't have a family, if not I wouldn't even want to see your face till the meeting is over, I got you something decent to wear. Be on your best behavior nitwit!"
It was the next morning and I got up early, got dressed and cleaned up properly as I waited for them to arrive so I could greet them.
The investors arrived at the mansion and I was at the door to welcome them. Thomas was there too. I was feeling a bit nauseous but decided to endure it because I thought it's because I hadn't had breakfast that morning.
They asked me questions about me and Thomas and our marriage, it killed me to sit there and lie, saying Thomas was a family man knowing fully well that he was a jerk.
It was all going really well until I felt that nausea again and this time it was worse.
And without even realizing I puked in front of them, it was so embarrassing.
"Are you okay?" One of them asked in concern but I could see the look on Thomas's face and he was not happy about it.
I went inside to clean up and Catherine was asked to come take care of the mess I made.
The investors had gone and Thomas came upstairs, he slammed the door furiously and said " you are such a disgusting pig from the biggest pit that there is".
I felt really weak hence I didn't really get to try and defend myself and then he raised his hands on me and slapped me so hard that I took a step back and tripped , he then lifted me and slapped me again.
I fell unconscious in his arms and then he let me go, making me land on my stomach.
I woke up and found myself in the hospital. The doctor came in and was consoling me which I found really weird because why was she doing that? I mean I'm sure Thomas didn't mention that he physically abused me.
Till she said " we see mothers lose their babies a lot and I'm sure it's really not a good experience. I'm sorry for your loss". I was shocked, I mean I was pregnant for Thomas and didn't even know.
And I knew it didn't belong to Mason because we used protection every time.
Oh well, I was looking forward to having babies for Thomas anyway I only felt bad about the little life that was lost.
The driver was sent to come pick me up from the hospital and take me home, I really didn't want to be around Thomas when suddenly I got a call from him and he said " the doctors said you were pregnant, you should've been more careful and tried your best not to trigger me, look now, I've lost an heir".
I really couldn't say anything to him as I felt so disgusted by how insensitive he was. I mean, how can someone be so rich and so unintelligent all at once.
Duke had been ignoring me since the wedding, I really just needed to talk to someone and let loose so I decided to call Mason.
He came to meet me at a park and I told him about the baby, he gave me a really comfortable hug and then said he had to leave because he had something urgent to do.
He then asked when I would be going home and I said "not anytime soon seeing as Pearl was at the mansion I couldn't handle any of her drama, at least not today".
Mason left and I was left with my thoughts again. I must say it felt really relaxing to be able to sit by myself and think.
It was getting late so I decided to go home. I got home and was on my way to my room when I heard moaning coming from one of the rooms upstairs.
I thought Catherine had been having men over to the house but she was too old for that and then I looked out the window and saw Catherine in the yard.
I went upstairs and peeped into the room and there they were, having sex…
