Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

Chapter 572 - Faking Pregnancy

"What do you mean by Bella is no longer pregnant? Are you trying to tell me that you really don't want to take responsibility? Don't think you can run away, okay!"

Rangga's words sounded unreasonable, that's why Lisa didn't believe it right away. How could Bella not be pregnant? 

Her voice that sounded loud made some of the visitors who filled the tables around them turn their heads and watch their little fight. 

Eventually, Lisa realized that they were looking at her. Her face turned red and she pretended to continue eating her food. 

After a while, some of the visitors just averted their eyes and went back to being busy in their own world. Only then did Lisa dare to lift her face and look at Rangga.

The man didn't look like someone she once knew. His eye bags looked thick and black, there were also reddish acne scars and pimples adorning his face. His chin was covered with a few short hairs, and his cheekbones looked thin.

Seeing Rangga's face made Lisa think that the man has been going through many problems in his life.

"Lisa, I'm not lying to you. Bella really isn't pregnant. It turns out that she made a fake report and paid someone to make it! I just found out a few weeks ago when we visited the obstetrician."

Hearing that made Lisa feel like she was struck by lightning. She looked at Rangga with a look of disbelief. She had indeed thought about several possibilities, but she never had time to think that Bella was faking her pregnancy! 

But Lisa didn't want to immediately believe Rangga's words.

Even though Bella had done many things that were out of boundaries, ruined Lisa's romantic relationship with Rangga and severed ties with her, she thinks that at least Bella really loves Rangga. 

How could Bella fake her pregnancy? Okay, maybe she faked her pregnancy for Rangga to marry her. But the woman did all that because she loved Rangga too much so she had to find every way to get Rangga to marry her.

Seeing Lisa silent and the look of disbelief on her face made Rangga even more frustrated.

"Lisa, actually... My feelings for Bella are only limited to brother and sister. I never wanted to marry her. At that time, I made a mistake after I drank too much, and I didn't know what Bella was doing, I just thought that she was you."

Rangga sighed, "You know that Bella has always wanted to destroy our relationship, right?"

Lisa listened to his long explanation with empty eyes. The wrinkles on her forehead were getting deeper and deeper, the woman was trying to digest what Rangga meant.

Every word that Rangga said, felt like a sharp knife stabbing her heart.

"Aren't you tired of talking to me at length like this? Whatever happens, we can't go back to that time again. You've done the wrong thing for what, drunk? Yes, I can't really blame you because you couldn't think clearly thanks to alcohol. But we..." Lisa sighed, "We can't have any more relationships other than friends."

"I know that Bella did all of that, so as her sister, I apologize to you. She definitely wants to do it all because she loves you too much and wants you to be her life partner. I hope you can forgive her."

Bella is indeed one of the many cunning women that Lisa has ever met. She'd always find a way to get what she wants. 

And now, knowing what Bella did to get Rangga made her heart ache. The woman was willing to ruin her sister's relationship in order to get what she wanted.

Still, Lisa could never do what Bella did to her. And even if Bella made a thousand mistakes, Lisa had a thousand and one ways to forgive her.

No matter what, Bella is still her biological sister.

Lisa knows that Rangga is having difficult days. But she couldn't do anything. She didn't want to confuse Bella again. So now, all Lisa can do is stay quiet and think that Rangga and Bella are strangers.

It's better for Lisa not to know whatever happened between them than letting her old wound bleed again.

"I apologize. I used to hurt your heart a lot, I'm really sorry. This is all my fault. I… I really live in the same house as Bella, like what you told me before."

"However, since I found out that Bella isn't pregnant with my child, we're not getting married. Why should I marry a girl whom I consider as my own sister?" Rangga was silent for a moment, as if he was arranging the correct words in his brain. The man's eyes looked sad and judging by his posture, he felt tired and confused. "Every day, Bella always threatens to kill herself if I don't marry her soon. I'm tired of everything, seriously."

Seeing Rangga who looked messy and awry made Lisa feel sorry for him. But again, she could do nothing but listen. 

In the past, when Lisa still had a relationship with that man, she never told him about Bella. She never even talked about her family because she was still traumatized. She doesn't want what she experienced before, with Aditya or Oscar, to happen again with Rangga.

Even in her family, Lisa never told her about her relationship with Rangga. So when their relationship failed, Lisa didn't need to explain to her mother and Bella.

And if what Rangga said is true, all of this is not entirely Bella's fault either. If Rangga truly loved her and didn't play with other women behind her back at that time, he wouldn't get drunk and mistake Bella for Lisa.

Now Lisa really felt like the news was strangling her neck. On the one hand, Rangga is her old friend. But on the other hand, Bella is her real sister.

What can Lisa do?

At a time like this, Lisa thought that it was better for her to stay away from the matter. She wouldn't let Bella misunderstand and she didn't want to find out whether what Rangga said is true or not. 

Because if she did and she confronted her sister for it, Bella would definitely kill herself.

"Bella is still young, she doesn't know what's right and what's wrong. So I hope you can forgive her."
