Elli adjusted her ID the following day as she was about to enter Kincaid Tower from her lunch break. It was one of her staff’s birthday and she took them out and treated them for lunch.

“Look! Racing season will open this weekend!” Natalie, her staff gushed when they entered the building and saw the exhibit of the Kincaid’s race car last year along with the awards, they won and individual posters and standees of their racers. “It’s a good thing that I was able to reserve for tickets. Dad’s a fan!”

“The ticket I bought is for the fourth leg already,” Winston commented as he stopped to check the car. “But I saw this car last year. It had a great performance. Too bad we only got second.”

“Perhaps this season will be our year,” Natalie said hopefully. “We’ll go ahead, Ms. Elli.”

Elli nodded as she stopped in front of one standee of the exhibit.

Could Elli be pregnant given that she fainted after that little fight? Elli is very reserved and I love the fact that she did not fight back but I’m very sure that she will pay Carmela back soon and in a big embarrassing way.

    SJ paced back and forth impatiently along the hallway outside the Presidential Suite of Kincaid Medical Institute, an institution that was built by his grandfather’s father and remains one of the best healthcare facilities in the country and continuing to develop to become better.“SJ!”He looked up and saw his mother, running towards him, her face anxious.“I left my function as soon as you called but traffic was unbearable. Your dad is on his way, too,” Mrs. Kincaid said as she grabbed SJ’s hand. “How’s Elli? Is the doctor still checking her? What is taking them so long?”“Sir,” Sam said formally.He turned and took the tablet from his bodyguard and watched videos uploaded online of Carmela attacking Elli. He slid the tablet, and an article came up from the online gossip column, The Juicy Scoop, with the headline in big, bold letters, “MARRIED!!!” along with a photo of

    True to SJ’s expectation, Carmela didn’t agree on SJ’s challenge that he is willing to undergo a paternity test. After checking with his cousin, Paige, who is an Obstetrician explained to SJ that he can be able to determine if the child that Carmela is carrying is his.“We have three different ways to test paternity before a baby is born,” Paige explained to him patiently. She looked at SJ, who is listening quietly with his mother beside him as well as his PR and Legal team. “They are as accurate as those performed after a child's birth.”“One of the three methods is the Noninvasive prenatal paternity test orNIPP,” she continued. “This test analyzes fetal DNA found in a pregnant woman's blood during the first trimester. If Carmela says she is two months pregnant, let’s wait for it to turn three and extract blood.”SJ nodded and he turned to his team.“You know what to do.&

I had your coffee prepare with two lumps of sugar.”“Your mother called me up and asked me to tell you that you give her a call,” Elliot Grande chided.Ronald grin.“I’ll think about it,” he said. “All she ever talked about is when I’ll be finally getting married.”He followed his uncle to his workshop area and out into the small garden where a garden table and chairs are situated. He poured coffee on his uncle’s cup before his own and then sat down.“She never stops, huh?”“Oh, she does,” Ronald answered with a loving smile at the thou

    “What the f8ck are you trying to tell me, Blake?!” He roared as he stood up from his chair inside his office. He waved at Debra and her assistants off, his way to telling her that he will call her again. He gripped his phone tightly. “How did you know that she’s looking for her real father?”“Because she called before and asked for my help!” Ronald barked. “She sent me a picture of that jewelry she has. Uncle was here a few minutes ago and saw it while he was going around the studio. Are you on your way there now?!”SJ grabbed his car keys and immediately proceeded to his private elevator.“I’m heading to my car,” he answered tightly. “This better be serious, Blake or I’m going to knock you out for disturbing me!”“I’m not going to call you if this isn’t serious, asshole!” Ronald snapped. “Drive as fast as you can before Elliot Grande ge

As what he had feared, Elli didn’t take the news well when his parents finally told them everything. They brought along with them a box that contains journals from her mom and Michael Porter.To their surprised, Jackson Kincaid also came upon his insistence.“I’m not old enough to be senile!” He scolded them dryly. “I should be here because I’m the one who knows everything!”The pictures of Elli during her 1st to 3rd birthday are also included that shows the entire frame of Elliot Grande.

    “She’s asleep.”SJ went back to the living room, undoing the top two buttons of his shirt and sat down. He massaged the back of his neck lightly to ease some tension. After admitting to himself that he is in love with Elli, the thought of losing her worries him.“So, what are we looking at?” He finally asked. “What’s your take, Nigel?”“The most obvious is now that your marriage to her is consider illegal since she was just seventeen,” Nigel answered seriously. “Unless there’s consent from the mother but it’s highly doubtful since she died when Elli was just ten. If Mike Porter was able to attain guardianship thru court order, then it’s easier to deal with. Elliot Grande will still contest it though. He might even allege that he kidnapped his wife and daughter.”“He has guardianship over Elli,” SJ’s dad answered, placing a folder on the center table

Her eyes traveled towards the clock, it read ten o’clock in the evening.She slowly sat up and realized that SJ had undressed her office attire. She reached for her robe that he must have placed at the foot of the bed and put it on.Before she decided to get up, her eyes had traveled towards the box that SJ’s parents had brought with them a while ago. Just seeing the box immediately had tears forming at her eyes and she brushed them away furiously.She finally stood up after drinking the glass of water that her husband thoughtfully left for her and walked towards the box. She looked down at in quietly, staring at the contents for a while.“You need to face this, Elli,” she told herself. “Only the truth shall set you free.”Elli turned and walk

    7 Years Later… SJ looked up from the contract document that he is reviewing inside his office at the sound of his two sons, squealing and laughing at the game they are playing with their playmates. He smiled at the sound of them enjoying the sunny afternoon. After scanning through the document one more time, he finally signed on his name indicated below and closed the folder and putting it on his outgoing tray. He stood up and walked towards the glass door that will lead him out to where his sons are. He stood there for a while and watched as seven-year-old Michael run happily while holding a giant pinwheel in his one hand as his younger brother Alexander Philip, who just turned five last month, was running after him, clapping happily. Their nannies were keeping a close watch on them while he saw William arranging the long table outside by the pool with Cherry and two more helpers. “My turn!” Alexander exclaimed as he pointed at the pinwheel.

    Elli leaned on the bed that night two months after she got out of the hospital and watched as SJ continued swaying their baby and humming lightly to get him to sleep. The look on his face squeezed her heart so tight, the look of pure love visible on his face. It's been two months since that eventful night. Who would have thought that something dreadful and dangerous had led to something much more memorable with the birth of their son? Michael Elliot Kincaid. Elli could feel tears in her eyes when SJ told her the name that he wants for their first born. The name is not from someone in his family but from hers. She remembered hugging him so tight that he had thought of Michael Porter. She was planning to use that name on their future children. “Well, if it wasn’t for him, we wouldn’t have gotten married in the first place,” SJ pointed out with a smile. He gave her a long kiss. “I told your dad about it, and he was more than happy about it. I also discus

    SJ watched, with tears in his eyes as the baby was finally laid on Elli’s arms and she lovingly cuddled him, looking down at him with so much love in her eyes. The baby is continuing to cry in his mother’s arms.“Hi, baby,” Elli whispered softly, rocking him gently. The baby, somehow felt familiar with the voice that is soothing him, started to lower his cries. “Mommy’s here. I’m so happy to see you. I love you so much, sweetheart. You just made me the happiest person, right now.”Elli turned towards him and smiled up at him widely.“I love you,” SJ said as he kissed her head gently and his one hand shakily touch the top of the head of his first-born. He could feel tears running down his face. “Hello, son. Daddy’s here now.”The two looked down at their baby lovingly, just feeling the joyful moment it brings them.“I hate to interrupt this moment, guys, but I need y

    Elli finally stood up, holding on to the grab rails, from the bowl after she finally relieved herself and pulled up her underwear carefully. She winced a bit when she felt a pain on her lower back as well as her belly. She turned to flush down the toilet and noticed that she had a pinkish discharge on the bowl, and she took note of that for her next appointment with Paige.“Marissa, do you have my phone?” She called out softly. “I’ll call SJ and tell him that I want to go upstairs to the room and rest. I don’t feel like going back to the function anymore.”“Yes, Madam,” Marissa answered softly. “I’ll have your phone ready when you come out.”Elli heard the door to the bathroom open when she had another pain shot up her belly. She massaged her stomach gently, breathing slowly and calmly. After a few minutes, she finally decided to unlock the door of the stall that she occupied.“Do you

    SJ looked at his watch for the fourth time and looked towards the doorway and waiting for Elli to appear back from the bathroom. He is tapping his hand lightly on his leg, a motion that his mother had accidentally saw when she turned to receive her wine.“Is something wrong, dear?” Mrs. Kincaid asked in concern.“Elli’s not yet back from the bathroom,” he answered calmly.“Give her another two minutes, dear,” she replied, putting a hand on his and squeezed it lightly. “It usually takes a little longer for pregnant women.”SJ nodded and pulled out his phone. He dialed Stu’s number and waited for the bodyguard to answer his phone. He grimaced and cursed silently when his call went unanswered. He pressed the number again and still his call went unanswered.He looked up and motioned to Sam.“Yes, sir?”“Please check on my wife,” he whispered straightly. &l

    SJ held Elli’s hand as he gently assisted her down the Range Rover late Friday afternoon in the driveway, fronting The Grande Duchess Hotel, who is fully lighted for its inauguration. He made sure that her dress behind is flowing neatly.“Thanks,” Elli said with a smile and her hand automatically went to her stomach, which is now round and big. “Do you have my jacket?”He nodded as he placed them around her shoulders.Elli is now nine-months pregnant and in a few days will be giving birth to their baby.A son.SJ couldn’t hide his happiness when during their gender reveal, the baby is a boy.

    Elli hugged her grandmother after the wedding ceremonies were over as well as the picture taking was completed. As instructed by SJ and getting her consent, they allowed one official photo by photographer be uploaded by the wedding organizer that SJ had hired. It created a buzz online the moment it was uploaded. “I can’t believe you came all the way here, Grams,” Elli said with a smile after giving her a kiss on the cheek. “I’m so happy that you’re here. As well as with you, Grandpa and Uncle.” She then hugged them both. Elli was glad that she decided to go overseas and see her mother’s family last year. She spent most of her time with her grandfather, who she knew was a hard man based on her mother’s journals as well as from her father. It took her a while but finally, she was able to convince him that she will lead the life that she wants. “That man better take care of you, Ellisande,” Phillip Montagu said seriously as he hugged her tightly.

    SJ gently pulled a sleeping Elli to him and watched her snuggle automatically closer to him. He dropped a soft kiss on her forehead and just continued watching.He could not sleep even after making love to her.He just can’t. Not after getting the best news in his life.“I’m going to be a dad?” He asked when he finally stood up. “You’re not joking, right?”Elli shook her head with a smile, tears running down her cheeks. “This is supposed to be my surprise for you once we get to Le Bernardin,” she answered as she took the ultrasound photos from him and looked down at it lovingly. “But I got upset when I saw you pull those brakes.”SJ chuckled as he placed both hands on her face.“I knew you can make it to top five when you were still practicing,” she said softly. She placed her hands on his as well and smiled through tears. “I watched the replay of the race be
