“No, don’t do that Kris, that’s so not cool,”Liam yelled at Kristen who started giggling really loud. The little kid has been up to no good recently and Liam couldn’t love her less, she was playing with her breakfast and spitting it all over his face and was having the fun time of her life when he scolds her, it was as if scolding her made her do it even more and he could tell that she was enjoying every moment of it.It’s been over a month since the Cacko stuff ended and life has pretty much been normal, a lot of things happened in one month, right after the court had found Sloan guilty and sentenced him to life imprisonment, Liam had taken a break to care for his daughter, Luca the crazy man must have been looking for ways to get rid of him because he approved his request in seconds, every moment of the last month was spent with Kristen, he finally started her adoption process and just a few more steps and she would be his completely, he couldn’t wait for that moment to come.“Oh,

Liam decided to stop by his parent's place. He wanted Kristen to be very familiar with his family so taking her there often was a way of achieving that. He called his mom that he was coming over and she sounded excited, of course, she would, she loves it when they come around.“Liam!”Luca called when he walked in, he hadn't expected to see Luca here today, he saw his sister running out of the house, she looked pregnant again.“Wow, big sis? You expecting again? So soon?”He asked and she rolled her eyes at him collecting a giggling Kristen from him.“I am not pregnant young man,”“Oh, my bad, I thought you were, I didn’t expect to see you guys here, hi Luca,”He finally greeted his brother-in-law who waved and picked up his little daughter, Liam kissed her baby cheek and she smiled proudly.“Yeah, we just stop by to say Hi, we are leaving soon.”He revealed.“Oh, where’s mom and dad?”He asked as they all walked into the house.His mom came out in no time, the prettiest lady in her s

“I never said you were a bad mom, I am just saying that you are sometimes, a lot of time too pushy and that’s not okay, aside from that, you are an amazing mom,”He said.“Well, if you don’t have those wishful looks then I won’t bother with you but you have this look,”“What look?”He asked, cutting her off.“You don’t know or you are pretending not to know? You look as if you want someone too, I saw it when your sister and her husband were being sweet to each other earlier, I saw it too a couple of times which is why I am suggesting that you meet people, maybe you will find the one that will make you feel whole,”His mom said, and he couldn’t blame her much, he just needed to work on keeping his emotions in check from now on and not let anyone see how he feels.“Mom, I am fine, like I said before, if I think I need to be with someone, I will find that person, I don’t need you setting me up on dates either so I need to go to them, thanks for thinking about it but that’s not it for me,

Ruby checked the time and decided If she wants to meet up at Emily and Nathan’s engagement party then she has to leave right now, she got up, took off her lab coat, and walked into the restroom in her office to wash her hands, she stared at her reflection in the mirror, it’s been over a month since she found out she was pregnant and it still felt like she was dreaming, she was already starting to look pregnant and yes she still does strip testing just to be sure even though she already knew it was true.She still hasn’t been able to tell Liam that he was going to be a father, each time she picks up the phone to do so, she finds herself stopping, not because of anything else but because she didn’t know how he would react to it, she assured him that she won’t get pregnant and calling him to tell him that she was carrying his baby didn’t sit well with her and she was sure he won’t like it, it would be as if he was deceived, but still she knew she had to tell him, he deserves to know.“Ch

“Yeah, she is fine, you forgot about her too, I called you but you never picked up and you never returned my calls, we shouldn’t be enemies Ruby, we don’t have to be together if you don’t want that but you act as if we are enemies and that’s not cool,”He said.“I am sorry if I disappointed you but that’s how I wanted it, can we not talk about it?”She requested.“Sure, it was nice seeing you and also gave fun today,”He said and left, she felt guilty for the way she handled their first meeting, she should have been more welcoming, especially knowing she had something important to tell him.Her eyes kept going to where he sat, he looked good and she couldn’t deny that and her body jumped for him, all he needed to do was be in the same room with her and her whole being would want nothing but him.She suddenly felt so dizzy, like she was going to fall, she couldn’t hear what was being said and her breath wasn’t coming as it should, she got scared for a moment and closed her eyes to stea

“Trap? Are you asking him to marry you?”“No, you know I just got out of one marriage, I am not looking for another, not now and I don’t think I ever will,”She responded. Marriage was the last thing she had in mind right now, after she told Liam, she would ask him for a co-parenting deal so that she can still care for Kris too. She really missed that little princess and wished she had tried to at least keep up with her, she might have forgotten her by now.“See, so what’s there to be scared about? Have you seen the way Liam is around Kristen? He would do better, you know that right?”“Yes, I know, he is a great dad, you are missing the whole point here, I told him that I can’t have children, so how will I tell him now that he is going to be a father?”“You told him you can’t have children? How did you know you can’t have children? Why? Because you couldn’t get pregnant in a space of five years? Oh my, Ruby, that’s not enough time to conclude that,”Sara said in a disappointed voice,

Meeting Ruby again raised a lot of emotions in him. Liam found himself looking in her direction a lot of times and she was watching him too, he knew because each time he looked in her direction, their eyes always met, and he felt bad that he wasn’t paying attention to what’s going on around him.After the way she responded to him earlier he had wanted to just ignore her and let her have it but it only took a while for that thought to go away, now as they both walked out of the event venue towards a much more quiet area, his head was filled with thoughts of her and all the times they had spent together, he just couldn’t understand why they couldn’t at least be friends, it’s not like they hated each other or anything like that.At least she wanted to talk to him now even though right now, he didn’t even know what they were going to talk about, he did have things to talk to her about but these were things she had made clear that she didn’t want to hear, women were so hard to deal with, h

“True, I saw everything, you did well Liam, you saved people and got the bad guys in jail,”She complimented.“Thanks, but you would have at least taken my calls or even call to tell me that a month ago,”“I am sorry I didn’t,”“It’s fine, and on other news, vine’s siblings are all doing good, her mom too, I went to see them when I got back and she is good,”He revealed.“That’s good to know, it all happened because of you,”“No, we did it together,”“Sure!”She said and there was silence, he wanted them to continue talking.“I started Kirsten’s adoption process as soon as I got back and in about two weeks, she would be legally mine,”He revealed.“Wow, that’s good to know, you are doing well,”She said and he smiled.“Thank you, it wasn’t easy though, because I am a single man but my parents helped so, yup,”“Kristen is so lucky to have you,”“The feeling is mutual Ruby, I am lucky to have her too,”He replied truthfully.“That’s good to know,”She said and there was silence again.“

“Is it true what my wife was screaming about last night?”Luca asked him as soon as he got to work the next day, it was still hard for him to believe that he was getting married on Wednesday.“Yes, she decided we should be married before our baby is born, and managed to get every one of the ladies on her side so I have to be married by Wednesday which is five days, wait, make that four days away,”He said and Luca started laughing at him.“What’s so funny Luca?”He asked.“You sound like they are forcing you to get married,”He said still laughing, force? No way! He was happy, beyond happy that Ruby wanted to marry him but he was just a little bit scared that she might change her mind, she was pregnant and if she adds the wedding stress to it, she might back out and he didn’t want that.“Are you feeling like it is forced? You are frowning Liam, you want to marry her right?”Luca asked as if that was even a question.“Of course, why would you ask that, you know just how much I love tha

Liam didn’t think he heard her right, maybe he had a little too much cake to eat at Nathan’s and Emily’s wedding, he knew he shouldn’t have eaten so much but it was so sweet.“You want to marry me right?”Ruby asked again and he finally came back to his senses.“Of course, I gave you a ring, remember? I want to marry you,”He answered and she smiled brightly.“Then let’s get married, I don’t want a big wedding like that of Emily and Nat,”She said and he just stared at her“Wait, what? You want us to get married this week? Ruby? You are almost due and might give birth before the week runs out, she can barely do anything and you want to be married? Are you sure you are alright my lady?”“What are you saying? We still have two weeks, do you know how to count? Let’s get married before I give birth, I am calling you and your siblings right now,”She said picking up her phone and tapping fast on it, her phone soon rang and he knew just who was calling and it turned out to be that person wh

We are going to be late and I want to be the one to catch Emily’s bouquet, we don’t go on time I might not get that chance,”Ruby yelled to Liam who was still getting ready, he was one of Nathan’s best men but that didn’t mean he should take all the day dressing, it’s been almost a month since after her divorce with Richard had been finalized and life had been all shades of fun since then, today they were all going to gather to witness Emily and Nathan say I do and she was so excited and really wanted to catch the bouquet even though she was already engaged.“Wait, you wanna catch a bouquet? How are you going to do it with the way you look right now?”He asked, mocking her, she looked so huge now she wondered how she was still able to move freely, she was eight months and two weeks pregnant, just two more weeks and she would meet her baby, okay, maybe three if the baby decides to delay.“I will, don’t get in my way,”She insisted.“I won’t have to baby, Kell

After speaking with Liam, and clarifying everything, everything was back okay again, the very next day, Sam filed the lawsuit and they got a hearing date, she didn’t need to show up in court, that was the best part of it, Sam said she would handle it and everything was discussed between Sam and Richard’s lawyer, she didn’t even need to meet Richard again, he called her and she told him off and blocked his number, she didn’t want his negative vibes, he had her before and lost her himself, which she was grateful for because if he had not ended things with her then she won’t have gone to Cacko and if she hadn’t gone to the island, she won’t have found Liam and Kristen and she would not have the life she had now.Only after a few days after filing for the suit, Sam called her that she had a huge chance of winning and it did happen because when he called her again, it was to tell her that the court has ordered Richard to sign the paper, she was so happy, but she hadn’t told Liam about it,

“Sam?”“Yes, he is my lawyer, I spoke to him and he suggested I go talk to Richard, I did that today but Richard is so selfish he doesn’t want to sign so I am going with Sam’s first suggestion which is to file for a lawsuit,”She informed.“Well, in that case, Sam is one of my favorite people now too,”He said and she laughed.“Oh, I missed us so much,”“Me too, I miss Kristen too,”She said in a sad voice.“We can go see her, she is enjoying her time with her grandparents, it’s just them as none of my siblings are at the mansion, mom called earlier and Kristen was having a fun time in the background,”He revealed and she cheered up.“That sounds so cool,”“Yeah, we can go over to see her if you want, mom won’t let me take her away until the one week I promised she would spend there is up, we can go be with her too, I know mom will want to see you too,”He said and she frowned in sadness again.“What is making you frown this time woman,”He asked pulling her face to his.“Talk to me,

“Why would you think I am angry at you?”Liam asked not understanding how that even happened, he couldn’t deny that he had pretty much been avoiding talking to her for the past couple of days but that had nothing to do with him being mad at her and everything to do with him giving her space, he didn't want to crowd her with everything going on.“I thought you were, you didn’t talk much to me, you haven’t hugged or kissed me for days, you haven’t told me you love me either, and I haven’t seen you for days, I thought you were not here,”She said and he felt like hell, he went up to her and kissed her.“I was here all along, saw you every time you left the room, I thought you knew I was home too and you just didn’t want to talk to me, I am not angry at you Ruby, believe me, I acted like a selfish idiot that day and felt bad about it immediately, I wanted to talk to you and say sorry but you didn’t want to talk to me,”“I shouldn’t have locked you out that night, I thought you would say s
