There was pin-drop silence in the room as Ruby and Kimberly stared at Jaxon wide-eyed.
Kimberly was shocked as Jaxon’s wires kept resounding in her ears. She couldn’t believe what she just heard. How was that possible?
She glared at Jaxon angrily and walked over to him.
“Stop lying! Why are you trying to push this on someone else?” Kimberly grabbed his arm and stared up at him with annoyance clear in her eyes.
“Get your filthy hands off me if you want to see the light of the day again.” Kimberly felt a shiver of fright go up her spine but she ignored it and tightened her hold around his arm.
“What do you mean by that? Why are you lying? Is it because of her? Have you forgotten how sweetly and tenderly you caressed me that day while we made love? Why are you denying our child?” Kimberly screamed in his face and Jaxon angrily clenched his fists in anger.
“I’m not the father of your bastard you delusional bitch! What did you think? That you would drug me and trap me with a child? You must be very stupid if you thought I would touch your disgusting body when I can’t even stand looking at you.” He angrily pushed her and she stumbled into Ruby.
Ruby glared at Jaxon and steadied Kim. They stared at each other with anger and betrayal in their eyes. Ruby felt like her soul had been snatched up from her. She couldn’t believe what was happening.
“What do you mean by you are not the father of the child?” Ruby angrily shouted.
“It is just as I said. I am not the father of your so-called sister’s child!”
“You had sex with her!” Ruby accused.
“I did not! She drugged the food that you prepared for me and tried to seduce but I managed to trick her into getting blindfolded and got the driver to sleep with her as payback for thinking she could take advantage of me. She foolishly believed I was the one and happily indulged him. I have nothing to do with her being pregnant.” Kimberly felt weak in the knees. Her hands started to feel clammy with sweat, and her whole body shivered as she stared at Jaxon.
“No! No! It can’t be! You are lying, you liar!” Kimberly frantically shook her head as she stared at Jaxon.
“I have no reason to lie to a lowlife such as yourself! You have gotten your retribution and you must pay the price for your stupidity.” Jaxon growled.
“What do you mean by that?” Ruby was confused. She couldn’t wrap her head around all that was being said.
“I meant exactly what you just heard, Gem. I made my driver have sex with her instead of me and I have proof of it. And if that’s not enough for you then you can go ahead and have a DNA test.” Kimberly started to cry in anger, pain, and betrayal. She shook her head in denial, she could not believe that Jaxon would do that to her.
“No! You are lying… she would never do such a thing!” Ruby shakily shouted.
Jaxon clenched his fists. He felt betrayed by Ruby, he felt hurt. His heart was beating rapidly as pain coursed through his veins.
“No? Lying? Do I look like a fucking liar to you? The only liar here is your fucked up sister and her foolish plan which backfired!.”
“No. She would never do such a thing! I trust her.” Jaxon felt his heart breaking into a thousand small pieces. He could physically feel the pain as he watched Ruby glare at him with so much anger.
She stood before Kimberly protectively, and Jaxon laughed as they took slow steps towards her. He stood before her and looked down at her.
“You trust her? You trust the person who tried to sleep with your husband. Do you trust the person who has been making advances to me since she stepped foot into this house? Do you know the number of times I rejected her and pushed her off? Do you have any idea as to why she insisted on coming to our house? She wanted all that you had and we both know that the only treasure you have is me! Your husband!” The fact that Ruby trusted Kimberly who did nothing to earn it over him
made Jaxon feel like a knife was twisting in his heart with each beat.
“You are truly amazing Ruby. It didn’t take you even a minute to take your sister’s words over mine. The same sister that planned your accident so she could take your place. I feel so stupid right now! I thought you knew me? I thought you loved me enough to believe me with or without proof but even after laying everything before you, you choose the side with your sister… You deserve an award for being the best fucking partner Ruby.” Jaxon spat angrily.
Ruby’s eyes widened as she listened to each word that he threw at her. She couldn’t believe it. How could Kimberly do all that while being under her roof? She knew that her sister could act childishly and naughty sometimes but she wasn’t a bad person.
Tears started streaming down Ruby’s face as she turned and saw the guilt, shame, and confusion clearly visible on Kim’s face. Ruby felt like cold water had been poured on her body.
“No! This can’t be true!” Ruby screamed in her mind as she shook her head.
She could feel the anger and betrayal rolling off Jaxon in waves. She could not believe she did that to him. The eyes that always looked at her with so much warmth and love were glaring at her with hurt and annoyance.
“I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that you believe that I would stick my dick into her hole! If I want to cheat I’ll do it in a grand way and not with some lowlife that keeps throwing her used body at me.” Ruby felt like her world was crumbling around her. Kimberly started to chant a series of No’s like a mantra behind her and Ruby didn’t know what to do.
“I’m so sorry.” Ruby softly whispered.
“Sorry? That’s all you got? You just proved how little you knew and trusted me, Ruby.” Jaxon angrily spat out.
“I’m so sorry.” Ruby started to sob, and Jaxon felt like pulling her into his arms, but he shook his head in annoyance.
“Save your apology Ruby, I don’t want to hear it. As for you, Kim, I’ll be going out, and by the time I get back, I want you gone! If I find even your shadow lingering around, your sister would be holding a funeral ceremony alone!” Jaxon angrily glared at them and stormed out of the room in a fit of rage.
