Chapter 19
The next day, the evidence of what Natale had done and the recorted chat logs were sent over to Hugh’s place.
Hugh bought new versions of everything Kelly had owned and placed them back exactly where they’d been. Every time he came home, it almost felt like she was still there. But the truth was, she wasn’t With Kelly, the whole villa felt empty, like all the warmik had been sucked out of it.

“You probably don’t know this, but this is Hughie’s favorite spot. I’m not going to show you what happens next. Honestly, I don’t think you could handle it.” “How long are you going to keep acting clueless? How does it feel to be the other woman? Let’s face it. You’ll never get your chance. You could always beg me if it’s too much for you. I might just let Hughie visit you more often.”
As Hugh scrolled up, more taunting messages popped up. He also came across a slew of intimate photos and videos of him and Natalie. She’d even posted a bunch of mushy posts on Instagram, all set to be visible only to Kelly.
Rage consumed Hugh, wiping his mind blank. The moment he opened a folder and saw what it held, his fury froze as if the blood in his veins had turned to ke

Hugh sneered and grabbed her chin, squeezing hard enough to leave bruises How many times do 1 have to say it? Kelly was never supposed to find out I was helping you. Don’t you get it? Now that she’s gone, you’re going to pay the price!”
With that, he showed her aside without a second thought.
Natalie crawled back to him, her eyes red from crying, her voice trembling. “Hughle, I’m pregnant with your baby. Please, let me go for the baby’s sake. I’m begging you.”
But Hugh didn’t even look at her. “I already know you’re pregnant. So what? It’s just a baby. I can have as many as I want. Do you really think you’re good enough to carry my child? Besides, wouldn’t it be easier for you to get rid of this one and have that other guy’s kid instead?”
