Forced Marriage: Escaping Her Monster

Chapter 354 - His Devious Plans

Chapter 354 - His Devious Plans

Gerard had a pleased smile as he saw the defeated figure in front of him. Even though Jeremy didn't say a word, Gerard could understand everything. He heard that Jerlina left Jeremy and is currently staying in her uncle's house.

Honestly, is that even surprising? She is a billionaire. Why would she still stay with his thug?

His plaid shirt is buttoned wrong and his brown hair is disheveled. He stank of cheap beer and heartbreak. He was glad he came directly to this stinky bar than going home first. His mother wanted to tell him "important" stuff but he came here after he heard the drunken ramblings of Jeremy the whole night.

This is how I want to see this guy! I knew my Jer was going to serve him the best revenge! She did it! My Jer did it!

"What will happen to Emma once…" Jeremy looked at Gerard. "I divorce Jerlina..?"

Yes, he had already made it clear that he has nothing to do with Emma. But Gerard is in a different world. He is a desperate man who is still in love with Jerlina although he is going to have a baby with Emma. To be honest, Emma is a little pitiful but she deserves it.

And Gerard… He would be a good pawn in giving maximum pain to Emma before she dies in the hands of Jonathan Erling.

"Are you worried for your dear sister?" Gerard smirked. "Don't worry about her. I have a very good plan for her," he smirked.

"Your baby?" Jeremy asked.

He was not interested to know but he asked it for a reason.

First of all, he wanted to know how a guy who was deemed to be infertile got a woman pregnant this soon. He thought there must be more to it.

Tara told him that Emma was bragging that she will get a billion dollars for the child in her belly. And it seems like his sister is motivated by the money to keep the baby.

What will the child feel once he/she grows up and finds out the reason why his/her mother had them?

But what plan does Gerard have?

The more he learns about his sister, the more despicable she turns out to be. And looking at the stiff expression on Gerard he could sense that he is not very honest. He seemed malicious and hiding evil plans in his heart.

Are those plans against Emma?

Jeremy smirked in his heart. He involved Gerard for a reason.

When he investigated Emma's pregnancy to bring damage to her, he learned a lot of interesting things. And he thought that Gerard is planning something on Emma.

The billion Emma is "entitled" to doesn't exist. He definitely plans something.

Is he trying to leave Emma with a child? Oh… how I wish Emma could survive that…

Jeremy knew what his mother went through. Emma definitely won't go through it. She'd probably act like Delvina Erling and abandon her baby.

Whatever!!! That does not concern me.

Jeremy couldn't entirely shrug off what Gerard did to Jerlina in that restroom. Just like removing Emma from their side, he has to remove Gerard too and make him suffer. Telling about his involvement in the car accident that took the life of a pregnant woman would make Jerlina despise Gerard more than she does now.

But he wanted more. He needed Gerard to bring down Emma. Gerard is desperate and he is hot-headed and senseless when it comes to Emma. By provoking Gerard, he can get two birds with one stone.

If Gerard kills Emma, not only Emma would be removed from their life, Gerard would be too as he would be sent to jail. Once he is sent to prison, his life would end there. Gerard won't survive prison.

This way, Jerlina wouldn't suspect his or Jonathan's involvement in Emma's passing.

Did Emma think only she can manipulate? Just because I never do it, doesn't mean that I don't know how to do it.

"Baby?"? Gerard smirked and Jeremy had a weird feeling about it.

It doesn't seem like Gerard made Emma pregnant to punish her… There is more to it..? Is it not about the money?

"I understand…" Jeremy rubbed his nose with the back of his hand. "Your baby with Jerlina was killed by Emma and you cannot love Emma's-"

"What did you say?" Gerard interjected him. He couldn't stay seated and he stood up and lunged at Jeremy.

Grabbing his collar, Gerard lifted him. "What did you say? What did Emma do?"

"Don't hurt my sister, Gerard… I'll do whatever you want…" Jeremy slouched on Gerard's shoulder as he lost his balance.

"You son of a-" Gerard gritted his teeth and pushed him away.

Grabbing the table, Jeremy stood straight. As he saw Gerard stomping out of the bar with stiff shoulders and fisted hands, his lips curved to a smirk.

Go little pawn… Do your thing…

*Bang*

Emma heard the door of the house opening with a band and was scared. Martha patted her hand in assurance.

"Stay calm. Otherwise, it won't be good for the baby…" she said and Emma's lips pressed to a line.

Baby, baby! Why is everything about the baby? Am I worthless? Does she think that without me the baby can survive?

"Son, you're back..!" Martha said looking out of the door and Emma got a little scared.

What will he do if he knows that I killed Jerlina's baby?

She somehow convinced Martha not to tell Gerard the truth because she is now pregnant with his baby and it won't be good for her. But that woman is really not pleased that Jerlina's baby didn't survive.

That b*tch! Why is she ruining my life all the time?

Eh, Gerard is completely mesmerized with me! He won't get angry at me.

She prepared to cry and complain about how she almost lost her baby because of Jerlina.

He should feel pity for the woman who carries his child, right?

"What did you do, Emma?" Gerard shouted even before entering the room."Did you kill my baby?"

"Wha-"

Before a word came out of Emma's mouth, she was slapped hard. The force of the slap pushed her down the bed and she fell on the floor on her abdomen.

"What are you doing, Gerry?" Martha pushed Gerard back and tried to help Emma up."Think of your baby!"

Whether she liked Emma or not, she is carrying the heir to their family and she cannot get hurt.

"My baby?" Gerard snorted. "That's not my baby! I will not acknowledge someone else's child as mine!"

Martha was stunned and Emma's eyes widened along with the ring in her ear. She thought she heard wrong.

"What - are you saying, Gerry?" Martha composed herself and asked. She could see that Gerard is enraged and she was scared.

"This b*tch cheated on me when I was in the hospital and got pregnant with some gigolo's child..." Gerard said glaring at Emma and his eyes reddened with tears.

Did you kill my baby? Wait and see what I am going to do to you..!

"I have proof!"
