Portia's face was drained of its color when she heard Carlos' threatening words. She shook her head violently and returned to the guest room.
When the door was closed behind her, Lewis, who had recovered from the pain, grabbed her hand violently and slapped her across the face. "You bitch! How dare you kick ! You are going to pay for that. I am gonna torture you to death tonight!" he yelled.
His hard slap made her head pound. Before she could co to herself, Lewis took his chance and pressed her against the bed again. "Look at yourself. You have the nerve to fantasize about being Carlos' woman. You think you deserve him? How naive! I will fuck you now and your dream will die forever!" he cussed with contempt in his voice.
Soon enough, thunderous and painful screams were heard from the guest room. Carlos ignored it and went back to his bedroom.
However, this was only the beginning of Portia's nightmare. There was more to co. The next morning, when she woke up, her eyes were empty and glazed, as if the light had gone out from them. Lewis looked weary and spiritless due to the exhaustion from the night. They got into the back seat of Lewis' car and left the manor together.
When the luxury car had moved just a few ters away from the manor, a woman suddenly rushed out of nowhere and stopped in front of the car. In a panic, the driver stepped on the brakes. The car ca to an abrupt halt, and Lewis was thrown forward, hitting his head against the back of the front seat. "Dammit! What the hell are you doing? Do you even know how to drive?" Lewis roared at the driver.
"Mr. Lewis Huo, I'm sorry. Soone has jumped in front of the car, blocking our way," the driver explained nervously.
Lewis looked through the windshield and saw a pregnant woman standing in front of them, crying. Next to her, there were a bunch of reporters holding caras and microphones.
The woman cried out loud, "Lewis Huo, you promised that you would marry . You said you would acknowledge my baby as a Huo family mber. But now, you're married to another woman. Lewis, get out of the car now! Explain yourself!"
It was the sa pregnant woman whom Portia had arranged to fool Debbie. She had then claid to be Carlos' mistress and had said that the baby belonged to him.
Ignoring everything else, the woman shouted in a hysterical voice, "Lewis, Portia! I know you two are in the car. Co out! You have conspired with each other and cheated ! If you don't give an explanation today, I will die right here and you will be held responsible for my death!"
Annoyed, Lewis flung open the car door and got out. But before he could reach the woman, the reporters surrounded him. A barrage of questions ca one after the other. "Mr. Lewis Huo, is the woman really carrying your child?" a reporter asked.
"Mr. Lewis Huo, you have just gotten married to Miss Gu, but there is already a woman claiming to have your baby. Can you give us an explanation?" another reporter asked.
"An insider has divulged that your private life is an ugly affair. You have a lot of won around you. Why did you decide to get married all of a sudden? Are you in love with the daughter of the Gu family?" another reporter bombarded him with questions.
Lewis was annoyed by the crowd.
He pointed his finger at all those reporters and warned ferociously, "Get out of my way. Whoever dares to stand in my path will be thrown out of Y City!"
The reporters were unimpressed by his threat. They ignored his warning and began shooting videos of his every move. "Mr. Lewis Huo, this is a live broadcast. Please mind your manners," a reporter reminded him with a smirk.
Lewis took out his cellphone and threatened the reporters again, "One more word and I will call my cousin. His manor is just around the corner and he's still in there. It will take him only a few minutes to get here and slam all of you down to hell."
The reporter sneered, "Mr. Huo already knows what you have done. You've offended him, and his team of lawyers are about to charge you soon. Do you think Mr. Huo will co and help you? If so, please go ahead. Call him."
Lewis put his phone away and dashed towards the reporter. He grabbed him by his collar and smashed his video cara, while yelling angrily, "How dare you speak against ! Huh? You have so much guts!"
"Aargh! Help ! He is going to hit !"
The other reporters imdiately pulled Lewis away. It was chaos all around them. Sitting inside the car, Portia shed her tears silently as she watched the ss outside. She could hardly imagine her life with this man. 'Should I really spend the rest of my life with this good-for-nothing creep?' she thought sadly.
Shortly, the news about Lewis' damaged private life and that a pregnant woman had co to seek justice for her baby on the second day of his marriage spread all over the Internet.
So netizens even dug into Portia's past. They found out so evidence which said that she was the other woman when Lewis was in a relationship with his ex-girlfriend. Portia's hair had been cut and she had been beaten openly on a street. All these scandals proved that she was a typical bitch who sabotaged other people's relationship.
Lewis and Portia were a notorious couple now. Wherever they went, they were hated and despised by others, just like a couple of sewer rats.
In England
Debbie was walking down the path to her campus in the morning. She looked at her phone, wondering how she should talk to Carlos when she called him. She wanted to throw a tantrum at him, but at the sa ti, had to ask rcy for Lewis and Jas at Valerie's request.
While she was deep in her thoughts, her phone rang. It was Kasie.
"Debbie! There's so sensational news in Y City! Did you hear?" Kasie asked excitedly.
"No. What is it?" Debbie asked, surprised. She had been concentrating on her studies and thinking about how to talk to Carlos. So, she hadn't paid any attention to the news.
"It's about Portia! She married Lewis!"
"What?!" Debbie's eyes widened. The news was so unbelievable.
Kasie filled in Debbie with the gossips. "Yes, Portia and Lewis got married! And on the second day of their wedding, a pregnant woman appeared in front of them claiming that he had cheated on her. A lot of other scandals were also exposed—Lewis hit a reporter, he has been deprived of his position in ZL Group, his private life is ugly as hell, Portia was the other woman in his earlier relationship and so on. The list is endless! Anyway, their reputations are completely ruined. Everyone in Y City is talking about them."
Kasie felt absolute joy rushing through her. She had wanted to get back at Lewis and Portia, but she couldn't find a chance. Finally, soone had helped her get revenge on those two disgusting people.
"But, you said Portia married Lewis? How co?" Debbie couldn't believe it. Portia was such an arrogant woman. She knew Lewis' true colors, so how could she possibly marry him?
"I was surprised too. I think they might have been forced to get married by soone. Could it be your husband? Only he has that kind of power. What do you think?"
Debbie was silent. She hadn't talked to Carlos in a while, so she had no idea what he had done. Then, another question ca to her mind. "Did Carlos investigate the incident of you being drugged?" she probed.
"Yes! Emtt told about it today. Portia was the mastermind behind the whole thing. Her target was you. Do you rember that you had given the invitation card with your na on it while we entered the party?"
"Yes." She rembered it. She felt that it didn't matter at that ti. And they indeed had entered the party smoothly even though they had exchanged their invitation cards by mistake.
"The security guard at the gate mistook for you. He was arranged by Portia. When I went alone to the restroom, soone covered my mouth with the drugged napkin. After I passed out, he carried to the arranged hotel room. And you know the rest."
'So, Portia's real target was ! She wanted Lewis to **** ... But because of the mishap with the invitation card, they had mistaken Kasie for , and...'
Debbie angrily stomped her foot. "Those scumbags!" Thank God she had saved Kasie in ti. If Kasie had been raped by Lewis, Debbie would have wanted to die because of the guilt.
"You haven't answered my question yet. Do you think it was Mr. Huo who had ruined their reputations?"
"Maybe..." Debbie said hesitantly.
"I think it was him. I asked Emtt. But he's so tight-lipped. Tomboy, I also heard that Mr. Huo almost gave away Portia to his bodyguards to let them have their way with her."
"What?" Debbie asked in shock. 'Looks like I missed out on a lot of good stuff while I was gone from Y City, ' she thought.
