Chapter 450 - Four Hundred And Fifty: Maggie

The third point of view:

Maggie was becoming anxious, why wasn't he here yet? Those people had told her that Fernandez would be here, yet he had not made an appearance even with thirty minutes gone. Could it be that they fooled her? No , that cant be.

"Fernandez" that name was deeply engraved in her memory and made bitterness rise in her heart. She couldn't forget him, not now, not ever, else why would she want to kill him. Desperately.

Maggie couldn't forget the day he approached her - even though she wanted it erased out of her memory. Then, she had been a young naive model, thriving to find her place in the competitive world of fashion. He had been so gentlemanly in his pursuit of making her his surrogate - said she was special or something.

She found out that the man was married, but his wife had cheated on him and gave him a son that wasn't biologically related to him. Now, he wanted a son from another source since he couldn't trust his 'cheat of a wife' - so he called the woman then. Maggie didn't want to agree in the first place but then the stupendous amount of money he offered her was enough to solve her problem - that included her mother's surgery.

As a surrogate, Maggie had expected them to head to the hospital where her eggs will be fertilized with his sperm to make an embryo, that is then implanted in her uterus. But none of that happened, instead, he impregnated her the natural way and that was when it dawned on Maggie, she was a kept woman.

Although Maggie was not happy with the change of their deals, Fernandez had compensated for that with his love, gifts, and attention. In no time, she forgave him and looked forward to giving birth to his child nine months later. So she dreamt - quite a young, innocent, girl then.

Everything changed drastically two months after when they had gone for a gender blood test and it turned out she was going to have a female child. The way Fernandez's expression twisted uglily told Maggie she was doomed even before his attitude towards her took a three-sixty degrees turn!

That night, for the first time, Fernandez hit her. He not only hit her but abused her; sexually, mentally, and physically. He called her a slut, claiming she was a succubus who had come to drain him of his money and hit her even as he did her. It was the most humiliating act anyone had done to her and though it was two years already, it was fresh like yesterday in Maggie's mind. The experience traumatized her, the girl hadn't been able to live normally since then.

The child in her womb didn't survive, the kicks to her stomach Fernandez had given her that night took away her surviving chance - and she somehow sensed Fernandez had done that on purpose to rid the child.

She almost died that night from the pains nor did Fernandez cared enough to call an ambulance for her because he left right away without even looking back. It was one of her friends who she called over with a huge effort that helped her escape the claws of death that night.

Her friend had advised her to report the crime to the police but Maggie didn't dare to. Fernandez was a huge corporation owner compared to her who was just a nobody. She was just an ant that he wouldn't hesitate to crush if she dared cross him. Fernandez had beaten her that night without hesitation, which meant he was not afraid of the so-called Law.

Maggie had gone ahead to live her life for two years, tormented by that night while anticipating the day fate would finally smile at her and let her get her long-awaited vengeance.

But then, the day has finally arrived

Although Maggie was hesitant about those people's offer when they first approached her - what if they go back on their promise? - after paying in the money for her mother's surgery - who was on the verge of death for lack of funds for her treatments - and the rest into her account - that was just the down payment - Maggie knew this set of people were honorable - unlike Fernandez who didn't even pay off the rest of the money he owed her.

She knew what they wanted her to do,?end Fernandez. However, that was what she wanted as well and hoped to be caught by the law so she could expose Fernandez's heinous acts to the world.

Over the years, Maggie did more research and discovered she wasn't the only girl who Fernandez had treated in such a manner in his crazy search for a male child - she must applaud the universe for not giving him what he wanted. But then, none of the women had dared to open their mouths because the man had power.

In fact, one of the girls, Maryann, who was brave enough to make a report disappeared overnight. Although the girl's disappearance was voiced, evidence suggesting that she had run off with one of her boyfriends surfaced the next day from God knows where and the case was closed.

That was when it dawned on everyone that there was nothing that they could do against this monster called Fernandez. Even if Fernandez did go to prison, his relatives had various high-ranking positions in the police force and would probably find a way to smuggle him out of the country to avoid a death sentence.

This was why Maggie took it upon herself to take up the role of a martyr - she would become the sacrificial lamb so others could gain their freedom and justice. They've suffered long enough in silence, it was time for their voice to be heard.

So she accepted the offer with heated determination, Fernandez would die tonight. Those people had promised to take care of her mother while she was in prison and even went ahead to promise they would help her there - they would shorten her sentence.

But Maggie didn't need more, they've enough already by believing her when no one did. Now it was her turn to fulfill her end of the deal. As if the universe heard her prayer, Fernandez strolled into the club looking as pompous as ever.

"He's here," She almost jumped out of her seat when the bar attendant announced his arrival. Crap, she had forgotten he was among those people. What was his name again? Andrew or something? He was here to ensure the mission went successfully.

"I know," Maggie downed the rest of the content in her glass and took a deep breath.

"It's time," she stood from the stool and was about to leave when the man grabbed her hand causing her brows to raise at that action.

"Good luck," He simply said to her and let go.

Maggie smiled back at him, if only she had met such a cute guy before Fernandez, things would have been much better.

"Thank you," She said and finally took her leave. This night would be a huge one. Maggie just hoped to God that Fernandez doesn't recognize her.
