What do you think of Maddison surprising Shane with the news during the honeymoon? How about his reaction to the news? Was he right to have the reaction the way he did? Or could Shane have handled the situation better? Please tell me your thoughts.
Shane’s POV My brother Desmond was right I was being an asshole all because Maddison had waited until our honeymoon to tell me I will be a father. I couldn’t believe what a jerk I had been, and she wanted to make it special for me to receive the news. Now I need to stop by the flower shop to get her favorite flowers, apologize and tell her what a jerk I was. Ryan took me to the nearest flower shop. You got it sir. We found the flower shop a couple of blocks down from the hotel. I go inside looking for roses since that is her favorite flower. The florist comes up to me, asks me how she can help me? I tell her that I am looking for roses for my wife. Ah, I see, mind if I ask what happened? It is unclear to me why, but I ended up telling her the story of how she shared with me that she was pregnant. The florist says to me, you’re a moron, and she needs more than roses for her to accept your apology. She looks around the shop for the flowers and something else. Ahhh, yes, here w
Shane, I think that we need to make an emergency landing, I don’t feel so well. At that moment, I start feeling pain in my stomach and double over because it hurts. He informs the pilot to make an emergency stop. He hails a cab to take us to the nearest hospital. In the hospital room, the doctor is doing some tests because there was a little bleeding. Are the babies okay I ask the doctor? We will let you know as soon as we run a few more tests, Mrs. Evans. Doctor, please do what you can to help my wife. Money is of no expense to us. I will inform you two of the results as soon as they come back from the lab. I want to do an ultrasound as well to make sure everything is going smoothly. The doctor comes back with the ultrasound machine, he puts the warm jelly on my stomach. Let’s take a look here and see what the problem is. He loves the wand around, oh I see that you are expecting quadruplets. Yes, we are, and we were flying in from our honeymoon when I felt the pain. Luckily for y
Shane’s POV When my mother-in-law said that I went ahead and put the dishes in the sink. Of course, I had a feeling of what I knew was coming. After sitting down at the dining table. Phong starts talking to me, I just want you to know that I don’t blame you for the way you reacted to the news of Madison’s pregnancy. However, you could have done it differently. I know I have apologized to her profusely. That is good to know because I would rather not see my baby upset. She has been through too much already, and the way you behaved was not the kind of man I want for my daughter. Furthermore, I had told Maddison to tell you she was pregnant before the wedding happened. Wait, you knew about the pregnancy and didn’t tell me. It wasn’t my place to tell you Shane. That was for Maddison to do. I know my daughter can be stubborn, but she is a good woman. I know she is Phong, that is how come I love her she is smart, beautiful, and funny. She could have had a chance with me when we were
“You don’t get to say those words after what you have done to her.” “I know what I did, and I have apologized several times to her, but she won’t accept it.” And coming to our engagement party unannounced did not help anything in your forgiveness from her. How did you even find out about the party anyway? It was a private affair and invitations only. Oh, I have my ways, he says with a smirk on his face. You dodged a bullet with me because I would have kicked your ass if the police hadn’t shown up. You know Shane, I was going to convince her to come back to me, then you pressed charges. I was in jail for a good week before she came to see me. That is because I did not want Maddison to see you. We had got into a big argument about it, but she insisted. I even had forbidden her to see you. That was the wrong move or should I say wrong choice of words. Let me guess Maddison went crazy when you forbid her from doing something. Yes, she did, I told him. Yep, that is Maddison for yo
Maddison, what is Gabriel talking about? What is this unspoken secret between the two you? Go on Maddison, I am surprised you didn’t tell your mom or Shane. Well, I know why you didn’t tell her. As far as your husband here you did not bother to say anything to him before you two got hitched. Gabriel, you are walking on thin ice. Huh, I am already there Maddison don’t you see the invisible thread that I am hanging by. I’ve lost everything that I have ever loved. You mean to tell that you actually loved Emily. No, of course not, I wasn’t talking about her. Then who were you talking about? I was talking about you and my two dead sons. Wait, Shane says looking shocked you have two sons who are deceased and will not get to see grow up. Yep, I sure as hell do. Alright, this ends right now. Maddison I am your husband now. I believe I am entitled to know about what happened between the two of you before you both married each other. Your right you do have the right to know because we sho
I can’t believe you kept that secret from me this whole time while speaking to my mother. You mean to tell me all the talk about waiting until you get married was a lie? I’m sorry, honey, we thought it was best to keep it to ourselves. Well, good job, not only did you lie, you and Dad are both hypocrites. Don’t you dare say that about your father. He did the best he could to provide for us. If he were here, he would tell you the same thing. Anyway, I am going to lay down. Suddenly, it is a bit too stuffy in here. Hello, anyone, I am still here. Gabriel, what are you still doing here? I thought I told you to leave. Yes, you did tell me that. Then why haven’t you left? Well, you said that I can stay until morning, then leave after your mom made something to eat for me. I look at Shane, asking him, did I say that? Yes, you did, babe responding back. I am beginning to think that I have a pregnancy brain from what I read in what to expect when expecting. You know what, maybe I nee
Gabriel Oh, Mr. Shane Evans, you will not be able to find anything. By the time you do find it I will be long gone, with Maddison finally having forgiven me for my sinful deed. I will make sure that I will show up at every place possible until she has had enough, and I am satisfied with the sincerity of her forgiveness towards me. I wonder how long it will take them to figure out that there is a hidden camera in her house. That is how I knew about the engagement party. Maddison had no idea that I planted a hidden device in one of her plants. She could never keep up with taking care of any plant anyway. Seeing that she had fake ones was icing on the cake to go with my plan. So they’re going to search for a place to live, huh? I wonder if I can get my Real Estate License. It should seem easy enough, right? I begin looking on my phone for courses in Real Estate since I have some time. It will be awhile before they find something that Maddison will love. I know Maddison she is ver
Maddison After concluding that there may be a hidden camera or small listening device in my house. I decided that I must confront my ex-husband alone about it. Although Shane may not want me to do it, I have to see why my ex-husband is doing this. The only way I will be able to convince Shane for me to talk to him alone is to make his favorite breakfast. I know what happened the last time when I visited my ex-husband in jail for ruining my engagement party. However, this time I will be more alert and will not put it past him if he tries something again. I quietly snuck out of bed while Shane was still sleeping, went to the bathroom washed up. Then quietly walked out of the room, heading towards the kitchen. I started making the egg mixture for the French Toast, then cut up some sausage, eggs, and coffee. I knew it was a matter of time before Shane woke up. So, I had to make sure that everything was ready for him when he came into the kitchen. Suddenly, as I am finishing his m
The person's throat cleared again, and then everyone turned around. I could not believe it with my very own eyes was my ex-husband, Gabriel. How did he find us? He was not even supposed to be here. I thought he would be somewhere drowning his sorrows. This man has been grieving ever since he lost his baby boy. Jason and Sandy looked shocked, just as I am. Looking at him now, though, I see that he is better. I cannot help but feel that something is off about him. It makes me uneasy that he is here. What is he doing here? Sandy asked me. I have no idea why he is here. More importantly, though, how did he know where I was? Gabriel walks up to me to offer me congratulations on the gender reveal. Well, Shame, it looks as if you will be a girl dad. I want to offer my deepest condolences. Why are you condescending, arrogant, and selfish, man? How dare you say something such as that? Shane will make a great girl dad. He will be their provider and protector to congratulate me on the gender r
It turned out that it was just a stuffed animal watching me. It certainly looked real to me. I waited a few more minutes until Maddison went back upstairs. That was close, and I cannot believe she did not notice I was there. Then again, she was half asleep going up the stairs after eating. Now, where was I going to put this tiny device again? Oh, yes, it is in one of the books that she hardly ever reads this time. She has so many romance novels it is hard to keep track of. However, I am surprised that her new husband has not seen her romantic novels. Then again, he has but just ignored it. Now, it is time for me to get out of here before they wake up and head back to my house. Maddison Shane wakes up, sweetie. Remember, we have an appointment today to see the Ultrasound Technician to find the sex of our babies. Just a few more minutes, please he tells me. The anticipation is palpable as we prepare for this momentous occasion. Come on, babe, the quicker we get this done, the faster w
Gabriel Whoa, that was a close one. I could not believe those two were getting close to seeing my disguise. That would have not been particularly good for me at all. I would have asked myself the questions they were asking if one of them was in a different disguise. I am sitting in my car waiting for the alarm person to finish that I hired for them. This is the only way I know I can keep track of how Shane treats my ex-wife. I could not believe that I dared to do something so stupid as to have an affair with my young secretary. Look where it has gotten me by thinking with my tiny brain instead of my big one. Maddison and I would still be together if I had not been thinking with my tiny brain instead of my big one. I would not have to resort to such measures to get her to forgive me. A wise person once said, “It is better to be forgiven than not to be forgiven.” I do not remember who said it; it was Ghandi, or it could have been my grandmother. My grandma Eleanor was an incredi
Shane You know you do look familiar to her ex-husband. Are you sure that you two are not related? Oh, I am most certainly sure. I know you two have just moved in, but I wanted to ask how you like the place. We love the place, and I see Maddison’s face getting extremely red, like a tomato. Awe, Maddison, your face is ripe as a tomato Sam mentions while hiding her face. Does that mean the two of you had some fun last night? Yes, we had some fun last night I answered. Good. I am glad to hear that you both love the place. I tell him there is nothing as fun as getting some with the woman you love. No there is nothing wrong with that at all. I must be off now and let you get back to unpacking boxes. Thank you so much for stopping by Samantha, Maddison said. However, the next time you come by can you knock? It is no problem, and I will make sure to knock first I cannot help but get a strange feeling that we will not be seeing the last of her. I get the same feeling too; I said to, Maddis
It was finally moving day, and we couldn’t wait to have the keys to our new home. It was a long week waiting, but Shane and I did it. Shane did most of the packing for me while I supervised. He didn’t want me to do anything since I was pregnant with four babies. Will you at least let me do something? I asked him. I feel so useless, I told him. You are supervising me and telling me what you want in these boxes. Isn’t that doing something he says to me? I couldn’t argue with that because he was right. At least I didn’t have to carry the heavy stuff, which was an advantage of being pregnant. I’m going to make myself some lunch. Do you want anything? I asked Shane. Wow, those babies have you eating crazy as a…don’t you dare finish that sentence. Never mind, I will have a sandwich with chicken, provolone cheese, lettuce, and tomatoes with Italian dressing. Yum, that sounds delicious; I will make some for both of us. The packing is almost finished, so we sit down to eat our lunch. Babe, I
Gabriel After washing the dishes, cleaning the table, sweeping the floor at the restaurant where Maddison and I first met, and stealing my wallet to pay for our lunch, I drove home with a clear purpose: I was determined to obtain my Real Estate License. This decision wasn’t just about a career; it was a way to reconnect with Maddison. I knew I needed a flawless disguise to hide my true identity from her for this plan to work. But first, I had to prioritize the necessary courses. The online courses were straightforward, offering a quick path to getting my Real Estate License. While there were more extended programs, I chose the accelerated options to expedite my journey. Each course included engaging videos, followed by quizzes to reinforce what I learned. I committed to watching a weekly video, ensuring I absorbed all the material before moving forward. After three weeks of dedicated study, I passed the exams and was ready for the next phase of my plan. I needed someone who could
Since you can’t pay, you will work it off by washing the dishes in the kitchen and cleaning the restaurant. I can’t believe I have to wash dishes to pay for my meal. No, you have it wrong, the waitress notified me. You have to pay for two meals and dessert. Wait, what? I did not order dessert. No, but she did tell me to put it on your tab. Why the nerve of that woman? How dare she do this to me? I will make sure that I get her back for stealing my wallet. However, she is having four babies with her new husband. I need to dig deep about him and see if he is a good guy. Otherwise, if he is not, then he will be in a lot of trouble. Yeah, let’s see if you are worthy of being with my ex-wife, Mister Shane Evans. As I am standing in the kitchen thinking about it. The manager comes by and says to me, what are you daydreaming about? Hurry with the dishes. I have customers waiting for their orders. Yep, that is it, I am going to get back at them. Maddison After I was done confronting G
