Chapter 5 - The Fake Pregnancy
I froze in place as the cold steel of the gun pressed harder against my skull.
Dominic frowned in utter confusion, clearly unaware that his mistress was carrying a lethal weapon.
"Natalie, what the hell are you doing?" Dominic demanded nervously.
"I am tying up loose ends for my boss," she replied with a cruel laugh.
She stepped around me, keeping the gun aimed squarely at my chest.
I stared at her pregnant belly, suddenly noticing how stiff and unnatural it looked under her designer dress.
Without warning, I lunged forward and grabbed the fabric of her dress, ripping it downward.
Dominic gasped in absolute horror at what was revealed beneath her clothes.
There was no baby bump, only a highly realistic, medical-grade silicone prosthetic strapped to her waist.
Natalie was never actually pregnant with my husband's child.
"You really are the most gullible, pathetic mark I have ever played," Natalie sneered at Dominic.
She confessed that the syndicate had hired her to seduce him and steal his company's lucrative patents.
Dominic flew into a blind, violent rage and aggressively lunged toward her.
Natalie effortlessly dodged his clumsy attack and brutally struck him across the face with the pistol.
Dominic crashed heavily onto the concrete floor, groaning in pathetic agony.
She turned the weapon back to me, her finger tightening dangerously on the trigger.
"Now it is time for you to die, Audrey," she whispered coldly.
I did not flinch or beg for my life.
I simply raised my hand and snapped my fingers loudly in the echoing garage.

Arthur's mercenary team rappelled down from the upper levels, completely surrounding us with laser-sighted rifles.
Natalie cursed violently, realizing she had walked directly into a massive, heavily coordinated trap.
She grabbed Dominic by his expensive collar and hauled him roughly to his feet.

She pressed the gun to his head, using my treacherous husband as a human shield.
"Let me walk out of here, or I will blow his brains out!" she screamed frantically.
