Dumped A Scumbag At The Altar For A One Night Stand With A Billionaire-Chapter 47: You’re Pregnant

"It was Lilian, Nat, she slept with Ian. I found out two days before the wedding." Celine admitted this breaking Natalia out of her curiosity on trying to find out what seemed different about Celine.

The revelation hit Natalia like a bomb at first and she remained fixed in spot, her eyes shining with disbelief.

"Lilian?" Natalia asked, "You mean like Lilian, your sister Lilian."

Celine let out a small bitter laugh. "If you’re this shocked then you can imagine how much more shocked I was when I saw her."

It was hard to believe for Natalia because just like Celine, Natalia used to see Lilian as a pure hearted angel. They attended the same high school, and Lilian would always be seen running after Celine calling for her sister, asking anyone for her sister if she didn’t see her for just a few minutes.

Natalia naturally knew that Celine wasn’t having the best life in her own home, Lilian’s mother used to make Celine’s life hell, but it was still Lilian who would apply ointment to any of Celine’s blisters from being overworked in a house that had maids.

Not even in her wildest dreams would Natalia have imagined that there was a devious side to Lilian.

"For goodness sakes Celine, Lilian did this to you and you didn’t even tell me about it? You never even told anyone, do you know that I saw news online congratulating her for her upcoming movie? She’s a bitch and she doesn’t deserve to be a movie star."

Celine sighed, "You’ve seen Ian and the things he says to the media right? No one would believe it if I accused them both of cheating."

Natalia wanted to say something to argue with that, but her lips automatically sealed when she realized it was the truth.

Other than his career, Ian held a lot of influence from the backing of his family. The Rode family were very influential in Neville and if one were to look at it, the Rodes would have been considered the most powerful in Neville if it weren’t for the legendary Blakewoods, descendants from Neville’s founders itself.

Lilian decided to show her true colors now because she wanted to ruin Celine, she had been hopeful of saving their relationship as sisters in the past, but apparently some people never change. Lilian’s little high school envy towards Celine had morphed into full fledged jealousy and hatred over time without Celine even realizing it. Celine knew that even if she didn’t want it, she had made a big enemy for herself.

"That bitch! Please tell me you at least tore her face in pieces and pulled all her hair out." Celine almost laughed at the hopeful look on Natalia’s face as she asked this question as if she would only breathe if she heard that Celine did fight Lilian brutally.

"Not everything can be solved with physical violence Nat."

"What? Of course it can!" Natalia insisted fiercely.

Celine sighed, shaking her head with a soft laugh. "No, I didn’t tear her face or pull her hair."

"Damnit!" Natalia slapped a palm on the table, her face showing a mix of disappointment and rage.

"Nevermind, I’ll do it for you." Immediately she said this, she almost shot out of her seat if Celine didn’t reach over to grab her hand.

"Relax Nat, it’s over now. Besides, I really don’t want to fight over a man who can cheat on me and threaten me repeatedly."

Even after some hours, Natalia didn’t let go of the issue. She ended up coming up with almost a hundred ways of petty revenge against Lilian and Ian, though Celine knew she wouldn’t be carrying them out, it gave her a good laugh.

That evening, they went back to Natalia’s apartment as the latter had promised to personally cook Celine a sumptuous dinner.

"Seriously Nat, I don’t want to care about them anymore."

"Yes but you need to get back at them. I know how you’ve always dreamed about your wedding for the longest time, do you remember back then in high school, you wanted a fairytale wedding and I wanted a harem of my own. How dare they crush my best friend’s dreams?"

Celine recalled how she used to think up scenarios in her head, she could only call her past self delusional. Perhaps there was no love like that, a kind of love that would be unconditional, so powerful it could weather through storms, so powerful it would tie two people together in a beautiful bond that couldn’t be broken.

Many people had told her before, maybe she should have listened to them. Be realistic, love like that doesn’t exist.

"It was for the best, if I hadn’t found out before the wedding he would have still continued to sleep around. What if I’d married him already and he sleeps with my sister repeatedly behind my back, wouldn’t that have been worse?" Celine plopped onto the couch tiredly, it didn’t take much to tire her out these days. The past her could stand through long hours of stressful shoots and a full schedule after that.

"Yeah, I guess you’re right. But that pathetic dog Ian better not let me see him again or I swear I’m going to cut off that uncontrollably treacherous thing between his legs!" Natalia said as if making a solemn vow.

Celine couldn’t help but find Natalia’s words hilarious, but her laughter was cut short by a sudden wave of nausea that hit her abruptly. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Natalia noticed how Celine’s expression suddenly went pale in an instant, she immediately stopped talking and began to pay more attention to her friend.

"Celine, is something wrong? Are you feeling okay?"

Celine quickly put a smile on her face, "I’m fine."

Though she said that, she wasn’t entirely feeling good on the inside. Her stomach was twisting in a way it did whenever she was about to barf her entire guts out, an annoying symptom her pregnancy brought.

"You don’t look fine, do you want me to...?" Natalia hadn’t even finished speaking when Celine rushed out of her seat and hurried into the bathroom. Natalia was shocked at that sudden movement, she only came to her senses and rushed to Celine’s side when she heard the sound of Celine throwing up.

She helped Celine hold her hair up, helped her clean up when she had finished vomiting.

Celine was just recovering from the sudden violent roiling of her stomach when Natalia said something that made her blood freeze up in her veins.

"Celine...oh my God, you’re pregnant!"
