Cruel Destiny
Chapter 29

LIAM WILL BE PUNISHED. AND READ THE STORY TILL THE END.

Natasha POV

Have you ever felt like God hates you so much that he wanted you to suffer?

I am feeling like this right now. It's like every door is closed for me and I have nowhere to go.

Last night after Liam's father's visit, I didn't know that the next morning would be torture for me.

I went to the restaurant as always but this time something felt wrong.

My stomach clenched in nervousness but still, I went inside and saw the owner and his wife arguing.

I stepped toward them and asked "What happened? Is everything alright?"

For the first time, I have seen hate and anger in Mr. Cameron's wife (Owner's wife).

I was taken aback when I saw it. She has always been good to me. So what happened now?

She just clenched her jaw and turned toward her husband and said "Do it otherwise we will be homeless."

She then glared at me and said "You are fired."

My jaw was on the floor when I heard those from her mouth. She has just fired me but why?

"But why?" I asked her bewildered

"It's nothing, Natasha. You go inside. No one is firing you." Mr. Cameron said

"No" His wife shouted "You are not thinking clearly. Just fired her or I will leave you."

"Would you mind telling me what happened?" I asked them wearily

"Mr. Knights called and told us to fire you or else he would take over our restaurant." His wife sighed.

I was shocked because I didn't know that Liam would do something like that.

I thought that maybe he would leave me alone after that night if I fulfilled his wishes.

But no he still isn't leaving me. I looked at Mr. Cameron's face. He was looking tense and I caught the glimpse of fear in it.

He had done a lot for me. He had sheltered me in his home when I was homeless and was on the roads.

He is very old and this restaurant is the only source of his and his family's income.

Even though it's mine too but maybe I can replace another job. I have to repay their gratitude.

"Ok. I'll leave. Tell Mr. Knights that I won't come here again." I whispered in a heavy voice

I turned my back and took a step toward the door when I heard Mr. Cameron's voice.

"You are not leaving Natasha. It's the only job you have."

I wiped the lone tear which fell from my eyes and turned back to face them.

I gave them a small smile and said "I know but I'll be alright. I don't want to be selfish here. You have done a lot for me. It's time for me to pay you back."

"But how will you manage as you are pregnant?" He questioned me with concern.

I opened my mouth but I was cut off by his wife "the father of her child will take care of them."

I wanted to laugh as well as cry after hearing her words. Liam would take care of me and my baby?

He won't do shit. He just knows how to mess with someone's life.

I really don't know what happened to her. The reason behind her behavior is a mystery to me

She has changed a lot. She was not like this. She had been polite with me but that stopped when I got pregnant.

Maybe she thinks that I had become a whore. Or worse. I just shrugged and said, "I'll take care of myself."

I turned back and walked outside. I took a deep breath and shuddered when the cold breeze hit me.

I only had this job but not anymore. I sat on the bench in the park and stared at the children who were enjoying the snow.

The snow has been falling since morning making the surroundings colder than before.

I have never thought that I would see this day. I looked above at the sky and sighed when a snowflake fell on my red cheek.

Had it been some other time, I would probably be enjoying it as I love snowfall.

But now I can't. I am now jobless and I have to replace a job quickly or it will be very bad.

I wish I could call Kelly and share with her my problems. But I just can't.

Why are you doing this with me, Liam? Why?

1 month later [8 months Pregnant]

My stomach has been grumbling but I tried to ignore it.

I went toward the kitchen in the hope to replace something to eat. Like I have been doing for the three days.

But there was nothing. I wiped my tears of hunger. I haven't eaten anything for the last three days.

I have no money to buy anything. I had paid the rent of the apartment out of my savings.

And now I haven't had a single penny to buy anything to eat.

My Scarlett was hungry too and she has stopped moving lately. I am worried about her too.

But I can't do anything. I can't even go to any hospital due to money problems.

It's her father's fault who was destroying us and making us suffer.

After that day, I had wandered almost all places in the city to replace a job but no one had given me the work yet.

I am still searching for a job. I have even told them I am ready to clean dishes or to work as a janitor.

I just need a job to earn money. It was Liam who had given the order to all places in this city to not let me work.

I had heard it from one person when I turned my back to go home.

He had said 'She needs work but I can't do anything. If I did then Mr. Knights will kill me.'

I stepped inside my room and laid down on the bed and curled my body into a fetal position and wept.

I might have fallen asleep because I woke up when I heard banging on my front door.

I frowned and wiped my tears. I sniffled and got out of bed.

I waddled toward the door and peeked at the peephole and wondered why he was here.

The landlord of the building was here and he was not alone. There were 2 men with him.

I opened the door and he greeted me with a sad smile. I bit my lip and asked "Hello. What happened?"

I was confused about his visit. It's not the time to pay rent yet and it's not outstanding.

He took a deep breath and said "Ms. Natasha you have to vacate this apartment right now."

I gasped when I heard his words. He was kicking me out of this apartment but why?

"But why? I have been paying my rent on time. Then why?" I questioned him nervously.

"This apartment has been sold. It was Mr. Knights who had bought this. I am sorry but you have to leave." He told me.

Again. He did that again. He snatched the last basic necessity from me.

I had no food and money but now I won't have any roof over my head too.

"At least give me some time. Where will I go? Please try to understand." I pleaded with him.

The tears of frustration and helplessness filled my eyes but I tried my best not to let them out.

He shook his head and said "I can't do anything. You have to pack right now."

My shoulder slumped with defeat. I can't do anything about this now. I have to go and pack.

I turned back to the room and packed my clothes. I don't have any other belongings with me.

The furniture and the stuff were included with the apartment. Nothing was mine here.

I wore a thick jacket over my hoodie and leggings to keep me warm from the cold.

It was a sunny day but now the clouds are covering the sky.

But I don't want to take any chances as I didn't know how much I have to spend my days out of here on the streets.

I don't even know where I am going to stay. Do I have to sleep on the streets? Without saying anything to him other than giving him a sad look, I walked out.

The chilly wind greeted me, making me shiver in the cold. I licked my dry lips.

I really don't know where to go. I have no one in this city. Kelly is not here too.

And about Scott, I bit my lips when I thought about him. I have told him that I would never call him so I shouldn't do this now.

I had enough now. I want someone with me. I am tired of this. I am alone.

I put my hand on my swollen stomach and caressed it. I got rewarded by a faint kick.

It was almost nothing but I am happy that she had responded to me after so many days.

I am a very irresponsible and selfish mother who couldn't even feed her child and get necessary checkups for her.

"I am sorry Scarlett. Forgive your mother, baby. I will arrange food for us soon. Don't worry." I whispered to her.

I walked a little while dragging my suitcase toward the park. I sat on it and took a deep breath.

My phone bill is due and if I didn't pay it they will stop it soon.

I dialed the number of one person who would help me. She will never abandon me.

The person immediately picked up the call and I whispered.

"Hi, Kelly."
