Izzy's POV

I'm hearing him talk and I can't move. I feel my phone vibrating knowing that Lance is calling me but I can't move, I'm in shock.

"What are you-, no she's six months pregnant! I didn't sign up for this when I started working for the company Evan. I actually like her, as fucked up as it is." He tells him into the phone as I stand in shock.

"She's in the bathroom, she's coming back. I'll call you later." He speaks into the phone as I pull away and wipe my hair and tears. He hangs up and I wait a few seconds before walking in.

"Who was that?" I ask coming up to him and sitting back down.

"Oh, just Evan." He tells me. At least he's not lying about that. "Really?" I ask again as he nods. I reach and take a sip of my water when the waiter walks back in and I immediately stop him.

"I'm actually not feeling too well, could you please make my meal to go? Preferably in a few minutes if you can?" I ask him as he nods immediately and I feel Cade tense.

I turn to him immediately, "So you know my past huh? Don't think I'm fucking stupid because I'm pregnant. Did he pay you to come and stalk out my job and shit? Or maybe the fact that I didn't abort my baby the way he wanted me to? Want to know about my life Cade? My dad's a fucking asshole who does what he can to get to the top. Including impregnating his whore so that he can have a new perfect baby and replace me. He doesn't help me in any way anymore besides my tuition. I hate him, with a passion for how he's treated me. You need to learn who you work for and as far as your comment about actually liking me? You didn't at first, you were forced to. Fuck you and that pathetic shit you call a childhood. Your mom probably didn't even need flowers." I spit out scaring him as I grab my shit and walk to the door.

I'm ready to leave when the bodyguards step in front of me and won't let me. "Get the fuck out of my way." I spit out grabbing my taser out of my purse ready to put the bastards on their knees.

They instantly move when Cade tries to call me but I can't even look back at him. "Izzy, fuck don't go." He tries to stop me when I push through the bodyguards holding my belly and out of the restaurant. I'm handed my meal to go, I'm not losing that free meal, and I rush out of the restaurant and onto the street full of people before Cade can stop me. I of course don't fit in, but I'm hailing a cab in two seconds and I hop in ready to be taken to my apartment.

I sit in the back of the cab and break down softly into my hands as I'm driven to my apartment. I don't talk while wiping my tears and eye makeup, and eventually, I get to my apartment and pay the man before I get into my building and to my door. I rush in and throw my food on the countertop before ripping my dress over my head and throwing myself at the couch.

I'm so fucking stupid. Nobody wants the fat pregnant girl, nobody wants me. I kind of saw this coming though, everything is too good to be true, and I know that now.

And I miss Lance more than I ever thought I would.

After wiping my tears for five minutes and listening to my phone constantly going off, I step into the bathroom and wash my face, and take a hot tub bath. I'm trying to shave my legs when I give up because of my huge belly and rub them with hair remover instead, and I rinse that off before sitting in the dark with candles trying to contain my emotions that cause me to fly off the walls.

Twenty minutes later, and almost half a bottle of apple juice and I've calmed down enough. I can't drink champagne anymore or wine, so apple juice it is.

I'm brushing my teeth and settling down for the night when I go grab my phone from the kitchen. I'm not even hungry, so I put away my food and quickly take my prenatal vitamins. I'm in the bed when I see all Cade's missed calls and block him.
