Gabriel's Inferno

chapter-32

Sophia's pov

Mr Knight and I are right now sitting in the dining room and having our dinner silently. It is a comfortable silence.

But when I looked at his face my suspicions rose. He looked bewildered. I gawked at him for quite a minute and tried to put my finger on what it was.

Some of you, who didn't know I am pretty good face reader but I guess in the case of Mr Knight I am going to loose this ability of mine too because he hides his emotions like a pro. I huffed and returned back to eating.

‘why were you staring at me like that?’
Mr Knight asked me with confusion lacing through his voice and me being me stuttered again.

‘Nnno...I wasn't starting at.. You. I mean I was just doing nothing. I blabbered all the random shit in front of him and like always made a fool of myself.

‘Sophia don't lie, I know you better than this. ’ he said with his calm and collective voice.

How can he be so calm at all the situation. I mean does he got training about how to hide your emotions and remains stern and Cold Hearted every time.

‘you are upset. I can sense it. Mind if I ask you why? You can share it with me. ’ I said with hesitation not knowing what would be the outcome of this.

After long moment of silence he said something that left me shocked. I was ready to receive his evergreen taunt  “mind your business” but instead of that I heard him saying “yes”.i breathe two or three times trying to control my overwhelming state.

‘sure tell me what is it? ’
‘I... ’

“Gaby, I am hungry I want to eat some Italian. ”came the screeching voice of Samantha.

Uh.. This lady is ......
..I don't have enough middle fingers to show what I feel about her.

But I remained silent and observed the scene unfolding in front of me.

MR knight hastily stood up from his chair and went towards her placing his hand on her abdomen and hugging her from the side. Samantha was blushing and looking at me with her hateful eyes at the same time.

I lowered my vision. Maybe I don't deserve this. Maybe I am not worth getting love. My eyes welled up with tears but I rubbed them immediately not wanting to show that I am affected by anything of this.

Mr Knight after a long minute took her hand and pulled her towards the table   making her sit besides him cautiously. I was feeling like a third wheeler and very awkward too. I might get up from here.

Just the moment I got up from my chair samantha said ‘maid  fetch me the glass of water.’

Then one more thing struck me like a hurricane that I am a maid of this house as I was officially declared by the owner ie. Mr Knight.

I remembered my past events. I was not given food for the whole day and he made me clean the whole mansion without a drop of water. After that I received a bunch of slaps too. I have treated worst than a dog but still I  keep my fake bright smile on my face and always tried to comprehend why I am not enough?please anyone tell me what is wrong with me maybe I can change myself so that I can fit in. I stood there silently but inside I was screaming, shouting on the top of my lungs wanting to know what I did wrong.

‘are you deaf ?  ’came together same voice pulling me out of the day dreams.

I hurried towards the kitchen and fetched Samantha a glass of water as I am a maid of this house and I have to fulfill my duties. I chuckled, my duties as a maid but trust me it was not a humorous but a sad one.

I heard Samantha talking about something like ‘we need to set up a  nursery  in the mansion and buy a lots of clothes for our baby and after two weeks I have an appointment. with the doctor too. ’ my knees weakened at her statement. Nursery, clothes. Is she pregnant?  No it's not possible I am her wife he won't get her mistress pregnant. But he never loved me. He loves Samantha, who I am kidding he would always prefer to have kids with Samantha but never me.

I ran to my room as fast as I can and banged my door shutting it in the process. I sat down on the floor I don't have enough energy to even support myself. I cried and cried and my tears never stopped flowing. Why me?  What I did to deserve this?  I married a man who got her mistress pregnant. The thought of Samantha getting pregnant with Mr Knight's baby was making me  dizzy. But what can I do. The answer is nothing. I can't do anything. I can't divorce him because of the contract and I am stuck  here for another few months.
