Tracey's POV
At that time, I heard Nathan's voice, "Stay away from my mommy! You big chunk of douchebag!"I looked down and saw my son kicking Lucas' legs and punching his thighs with his little fists."You..." Lucas looked down and picked Nathan up with his giant hands.Then, he lifted him up to his eye level and stared at him.Nathan kicked his legs and waved his arms angrily in the air, trying to hit Lucas, but all his efforts were in vain.Lucas didn't do anything.He just stood there, holding my son like a cub, staring at him.Well, even though I didn't want to admit it, the truth was, that Nathan looked just like a miniature version of Lucas.And of course, Lucas could see it.But I just didn't want to give it to him that easily.I snatched Nathan away from Lucas and held him tightly in my arms."What... What is his name?" Lucas looked overwhelmed and mumbled."His name is Nathan and he isn't your son," I replied while stroking Nathan's hair.Lucas couldn't take his eyes off Nathan and said, "I need to run a paternity test on him...""In your dream!" I said in a cold voice.Jessica cleared her voice and said, "Come on, Luke. You know Tracey. She's always flirting with other men. She must have slept with a dozen men in the past six years. Maybe she can't even tell who the boy's father is. Just don't give her a big hard time."That fucking bitch. She has been calling me a slut ever since we were in the same high school!Now it's time to teach her a lesson!"On second thought," I said. "I can agree to run a paternity test on Nathan, but only if Jessica kneels in front of everyone and apologizes for calling me a slut.""You...!" Jessica looked as if she was about to explode.At that time, I heard Lucas' deciding voice -"What are you waiting for, Jess? Get on your knees and apologize to Tracey!""What?!" Jessica looked shocked and stared at Luas.Lucas looked impatient, "You've heard me. Kneel and apologize, so I can prove that this boy is my son.""But Luke..." Jessica said with tears circling in her eyes."Do it right now." Lucas insisted.Jessica looked around and saw people passing by on the busy road as if she was looking for help.In the end, she had to give in and get on her knees."I apologize for calling you a slut." Jessica said in a low voice."And for having spread the rumor that I had slept with a football team in high school!" I added.Jessica cried like a melting candle and said, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have spread the rumor. It's all my fault.""Why would you do something like that?" Lucas frowned and scolded Jessica."I was too young and I was jealous of Tracey..." Jessica mumbled. "She was so smart and rich... And she was good at everything."I gloated.Fucking bitch! Right on your face! That's what you get when you're stuck with a fucking asshole!Lucas ignored her and walked straight at me."Now, you get what you want. Come with me right now. We're going to do this paternity test today. I can't wait any longer," he said."OK," I shrugged and walked into his limo, holding Nathan in my arms.Jessica thought Lucas would help her to get up, but Lucas walked past her and got into the car, sitting next to me.Her face looked red and white. And the expression on her face? It was priceless.In the end, she had to get up by herself and sit in the front, next to the driver."Luke..." Jessica said in a low voice. "If this child is tested to be your son... What about us?"Again, Lucas ignored her.He stared at Nathan and said to me in a cold voice, "If this child is mine, I will take him away from you. I will hire the best lawyers and get my son's custody. Your father died in a traffic accident, and your uncle took over the company. So now, you're broke. The judge will never give my son's custody to a woman who doesn't have a steady income.""And if it turns out that Nathan isn't your child, I'll take him away, and you have to promise that you'll never show up in our lives!" I said."Deal," Lucas said. "I know my son when I see him."Nathan looked at Lucas and said, "I don't want you to be my father. I want to stay with mommy. You're so weird. You don't like anyone, and nobody likes you. But my mommy is different. Everyone likes her."Lucas' face darkened. I knew he wanted to shout at Nathan, but he couldn't do it, because he didn't want to leave him a worse impression.Nathan continued, "And you can't just take away other people's sons and say it's yours. People will hate you for doing things like this. You should find your own woman and have your own babies. You can't take my mommy away from me. I will be mad at you. And I get really bad when I'm mad."Lucas looked impressed by Nathan and said, "What are you going to do? Turn into a little Hulk and smash everything?""Only stupid people use violence to deal with anger. I don't need to smash anything to make your life miserable," Nathan blinked and said."Are you threatening me?" Lucas asked."Only the weak take everything as threats," Nathan said.Lucas looked even more impressed by this six-year-old boy.He stared at me and asked, "Did you teach him all of this?"I rolled my eyes and ignored him.Nathan was born with multiple incredible gifts.Verbal art was just one of them.I would never let such a gifted child get ruined by a man like Lucas Plarre.Five hours later, the result of the paternity test was out.Lucas took a glance at the report and his face immediately darkened.Tracey's POVI took a glance at the report. Probability of paternity: 0.0000% !Lucas had a hard time processing this fact. He grabbed the person in charge and barked at his face, "No! There must be something wrong with the test!" Then he pointed at Nathan and roared, "Look at him! He looks just like me! He must be my son!"The person in charge stepped back and said, "Sir, we are a very reputable agency. We are fully responsible for the result of the test." "But that boy is my son!" Lucas growled.I said, "Leave that poor gentleman alone before he calls for the police. You're paranoid and hysterical right now, Lucas. Take the report and go away." Lucas turned back and pressed me against the wall. "You! It must be you! You're the one who's behind everything!" He stared at me with anger. We were so close that it reminded me of what happened on that night before I left.I could tell that he was thinking of the same thing."You're a nymph. What have you done to the test? What have y
Tracey's POVJerry Fisher. This fucking name rings a bell, but I just can't remember who he is.But when I walked into the VVIP lounge in the trendiest nightclub in town, I immediately recognized the bold, short, sturdy man sitting on the sofa, surrounded by two almost half-naked women.Jerry Fisher was one of my craziest suitors before I got married to my husband. He was literally stalking me everywhere I went. It was kind of creepy.No wonder his name sounded familiar."Tracey Stewart! Oh, mine! It's really you!" Jerry exclaimed while pushing away the two women. "When Jacob told me you were back, I couldn't believe it! I mean, look at you! Nine years have passed, but you haven't changed a bit! What have you been drinking? Fountain of youth?"I was about to say something, but he turned to the two girls and continued, "You girls are too young to know anything about the magical Tracey Stewart. She was just like you two. Cheerleader, homecoming queen, social influencer. But one day, she
Tracey's POV"Yeah, of course, I've got a boyfriend. I'm not a fucking nun! And you know what? He's the father of my son Nathan! And if you don't stop treating me like this right now, I'll fucking sue you and get a restraining order on you!"Lucas looked lost and frustrated. There were flames in his eyes.I hadn't seen him being mad like this. Not even for once.As I was trying to break away from him, he pulled me back."How dare you say something like this in front of me? Are you trying to insult me? Let your imaginary boyfriend sue me. I don't care. Nathan is my son and I don't give a fuck what the paternity test says. Do not ever say something like that to me again, woman. Do not try to cross me! Do you understand?!" Lucas held my shoulders and shook me passionately.I said, "Stop being obsessed with me! I'm not your property, and Nathan is my son, not yours. The sooner you figure this out, the better off for both of us."Lucas wasn't at all listening. He was consumed by his anger
Tracey's POV"Seriously?" Jessica raised her eyebrows, gloating while walking into the lounge. " Both Mr. Fisher and I know who you are. Being the only daughter of a multi-billionaire, Miss Stewart must be kidding with us."Jerry Fisher smirked and said, "I have to agree with Miss Waddingham. Your father's net worth was 4 billion before he passed away. Don't tell me that he hadn't left you with anything. You have to pay for this bottle of cognac, Miss Stewart."Aren't these two complement each other? I thought to myself. They would certainly be the most repugnant couple in the world.Noticing my awkward silence, Jessica placed a hand over her forehead and said, "If you go apologize to Mr. Fisher and please him, he might forget about this incident. After all, Mr. Fisher is a very generous man."Lucas walked inside and saw the mess on the ground.He remained silent.Jerry Fisher was drunk. He didn't even seem to notice Lucas. He grabbed my arm and pulled me against him. Then, he pinched
Lucas' POVI had never seen Tracey walking like that when she got out.She has always walked in a very lady-like way, but on that day, she was almost staggering.Is she drunk?No way. I used to see her drinking with her bride's maids on our wedding night. Everyone ended up being drunk, but somehow she was the only one who remained sober.That woman is a walking miracle.I didn't know what had happened to me, but being stuck in this suffocating VVIP lounge, I felt particularly missing her.I missed her slim figure. Who could ever believe that she had pushed a baby out of such a tiny body?I missed her beautiful green eyes. They were always full of witty sparkles and only occasionally filled with anger or tears because of me.She was angry because of me. She cried for me. For me and only me.I used to own that woman. She was completely mine. What kind of idiot am I to let such a perfect woman run away from me? I really wished I could hold her in my arms and rip off her clothes, and...W
Tracey's POVLaura?! Did he fucking just mistake me with his high school sweetheart?!How could he...?!I pushed him away and jumped off the bed, crossing my arms while looking at him with hatred in my eyes.After all these years, he still couldn't forget about Laura!I had to grab my own wrists, so I wouldn't smash his head with a lamp or something.I went to the bathroom and took a cold shower to calm me down.But as soon as I went back to the bedroom and saw Lucas' face, my skin felt boiling again.Damn, he looked so good when he lay on the bed half-consciously like this.What a body.What a flawless face.What a huge chunk of..."Laura..." He murmured, stretching out his arm toward me.Seriously?! Again?! Just when I was about to forgive you because you look so enticing?!I picked up the lamp.He suddenly wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me into his arms."I miss you so much... I shouldn't have let go of you. Please don't go away. Please stay with me. Please, Tracey..."
Tracey's POV"Well, about that," I approached Jessica and lowered my voice, "You'll never know."Then, I glanced at the paparazzi and said, "Make sure you take the pictures and post them online. The clock is ticking and subpoenas are pending."After that, I walked out of the room like a champ.-The next morning, I was having breakfast with Nathan when the doorbell rang.I opened the door and saw a tall, strong man standing outside.I saw it was Darren, the PI I hired to investigate my father's mysterious death.He used to be a senior in my college and we've stayed in touch for years."Tracey, I've been calling you all night..." Darren looked concerned."Darren!" Nathan jumped up and threw himself at him.Darren picked him up with one hand and carried him on his shoulder."Well, you've put on some weight, little cub. What has mommy been feeding you?" He smiled at my son."Lots of love!" Nathan giggled, clung to Darren like a little sloth, and refused to come down."I'm glad that you c
Tracey's POV"What do you mean that my son is gone?!" My mind went blank."I'm at his school! But his teacher said that they couldn't find him anywhere!""What do you mean that they can't find him?! Have they checked everywhere?!""I'm going through the trash bins now... There's trash everywhere... The teachers are shouting at me. And I don't know what to do!" Joan was crying hysterically.I have to stay calm. I told myself.So I cleared my voice and said, "Listen, Joan. My son is smart. He always knows what he is doing. He can take care of himself. Now, get out of the trash bin and stay with the teachers. Do not go anywhere. Don't talk to anyone."After I hung up on her, I switched on the app that tracked Nathan's smartwatch.And the blinking dot pinpointed Nathan's location in...Standard Genome Tower?!My son is in Lucas' company right now?!My world collapsed.Did he wake up at the hotel and see that I had gone, then he decided to abduct my son?!How dare he?!Nathan's POVDaddy's
