Thrown out

“Your work here is done. I wanted a child, so you gave me one. You can die for all I care. I have gotten what I wanted.” He said and Anna felt the air leave her lungs. “W... what?” She forced the words out of her throat. Her chest felt like it was about to rip into pieces. She must have heard wrong. Even Shayne, who already knew how much of an asshole he was, couldn’t believe that he would actually say those words to Anna’s face. He was truly an asshole Anna shook her head and grabbed his arm, her lips shivering. “Y…you are just joking, right? This is one of your jokes, isn’t it?” Her tone was unstable and her voice broke. Jacob only looked at her with disgust before latching his hands around her tiny ones and pushing her so hard that if it wasn’t for her quick-witted sister, she would have fallen face flat on the floor. “You are causing a scene here, Anastasia Walker. I'd advise you to leave… go far away and never come back. And, don’t even try going to the media or police. No one will believe you. That child is mine. Thank you for giving me exactly what I wanted.” He spat coldly, his eyes holding no emotion. “No!” Anna screamed, feeling her heart ripping into pieces. “How can you do this to me?” She let out another terrifying scream, her eyes red with pain and anger. “I did everything you asked me too, because I loved you! You said you loved me! How could you use me and then discard me like I am nothing but garbage? How?” Her strength was failing her, and it was evident in her falling tone. Jacob let out another heart-wrenching chuckle and looked at her in a condescending manner. “Love?” He laughed again, mocking her with his eyes. “ Look at yourself, Anna. Do you think someone like you deserves to be loved by someone like me?” He said and Shayne let out a loud scream, trying to stop him from talking, as she couldn’t leave her sister and go to him. “Leave, Anna…the both of you. I’m being nice and giving you time. If my parents find you here, they won’t be as nice.” He said and turned to leave. “What about her child? She suffered for nine months, Jacob. All you gave her was money. You have no idea how much she wanted your attention during those nine months. You cannot take those nine months away now that the child is here. If you do not give us that child, we will go to every TV station and tell everyone who cares to hear what you have done. We will ruin your image!” Shayne threatened, her eyes filled with determination. Jacob gritted his teeth and clenched his fists before turning to look at her.. “What are you going to say, huh? That she got pregnant and had her child stolen from her? Do you think anyone is going to believe you? Think about it. You have no proof and, according to the doctors, you didn’t give birth. You’d only be a mad woman if you go around saying s**t like that.” He said and both their eyes widened, realizing that he had bribed the hospital to keep their mouths shut about her delivery. During the course of her pregnancy, he made her stay indoors so that no one could see her. Even her friends had to be lied to. In his words ‘ it would taint my reputation if anyone were to find out, so we should wait until you give birth before telling them. We can have the wedding immediately so no one would be able to talk.’ She was foolish enough to believe him. Jacob drove away without looking back, leaving the sisters on the floor, covered in their own tears.. “Come on, Anna. Let’s get out of here.” Shayne said, and helped her sister get into a cab. Her loud wails pierced into Shayne’s soul and all she wanted to do was kill Jacob Wades and his family. After what felt like forever, the cab finally slowed down in front of their house. “What the hell is going on here?” Shayne mumbled before giving the driver his money, unlocking the car door and running out. Outside their apartment were furniture, luggage containing their clothes and even kitchen appliances. Pretty much everything they had inside was now outside. Thankfully, two men came out of the house, throwing more things on the floor. “What do you think you’re doing? How dare you throw our things outside?” Shayne charged. All Anna could do was sit on the pavement and lean her head against the wall. “Miss Anastasia Wellington?” The man said to Shayne and, with creased brows, she answered. “That’s my sister. What is going on? How did you even get in here?” She asked once again, feeling her patience running out. “Mr Jacob has instructed us to empty the house and let you know that you will no longer be staying here.” The man said and Anna let out another pained sigh, this time around, her chest heaved as she found it hard to breathe. She felt as though she would die at any minute with everything that was happening. With everything Jacob had done today, was he going to leave her homeless? She had just given birth for Christ's sake. Can’t she even rest for a day? It was clear that he didn't love her but, didn't he have a little sympathy for the woman that gave birth to his son? “What? That spawn of the devil!” Shayne hissed, ruffling her hair. “Look here. We don’t have anywhere to go, and it will be hard to find a new place today. It is already late. Please, let us just stay here for the night. My sister is exhausted and needs to rest. Please.” She rubbed her hands together, pleading with them. “We are only following orders, Miss. We’re sorry, but there is nothing we can do.” They said and locked the house before driving off. Anna took her bag and dipped her hand in it, searching for her phone as she struggled to breathe. She dialed Jacob’s number, but it didn’t even ring. He had blocked her. After trying two more times, she finally realized that he had truly blocked her. “Oh God!” Fresh tears began to flow from her eyes. “Come, Anna. We can stay at a hotel tonight and leave for my friend’s place in Australia tomorrow morning. We should be able to travel with the money we have.” Shayne said, accepting their fate. “We’re leaving? What about my son?” Anna said in a voice so tiny, it broke Shane’s heart. “We can’t do anything right now, Anna. You heard Jacob. We’re penniless and he is powerful. We spent all our money paying off debts Dad incurred, so we only have enough to travel and hope that Dylan helps us. I’ll call him.” Shayne said and pulled out her phone. She was about to place a call to Dylan when his own call came in. Without even exchanging pleasantries, he began talking. “Shannie, didn’t you say your sister was engaged to Jacob Wades? Why is he getting married to another woman? It’s all over the news.” He said and Shayne immediately hung up and ran to look it up. Her phone almost slipped out of her hand as she read the headlines. Jacob Wades is set to wed his fiancée, Emma Ferguson, in two weeks as she gives birth to the heir of the Wades Empire after a cryptic pregnancy. “Jesus Christ, Anna. We have to leave Canada…now.”
