Elevator. 84
CH 84.It was a beautiful Saturday morning, the sun was shining bright and the birds were chirping outside. Lucas woke up early, feeling restless as he had been for the past few weeks. He got out of bed and slipped on his robe, walking quietly to the kitchen. He decided to make breakfast for Andrianne, hoping to surprise her and make her happy.Lucas started by brewing a pot of coffee, the rich aroma filling the kitchen. He then pulled out some eggs, bacon, and bread, and began cooking. As he cooked, his mind couldn't help but drift to Emily and the baby she was carrying. He couldn't believe he was going to be a father again, but this time with a woman he didn't love.As he was finishing up the cooking, he heard Andrianne stir in the bedroom. He quickly set the table, making sure everything was perfect. When Andrianne walked into the kitchen, she was surprised to see Lucas there, cooking breakfast."Good morning, love," he said with a smile, trying to hide the turmoil inside him.Andr

CH 85.Lucas sat in his office, scrolling through his emails and trying to focus on work. He had a lot on his mind lately, especially with Emily's pregnancy and the tension it was causing in his marriage with Andrianne. He knew he needed to tell her the truth, but he just couldn't bring himself to do it.Suddenly, the door to his office burst open and Emily strutted in, looking more confident than ever. Lucas tried his best to remain calm and collected, but he couldn't help feeling a little unnerved by her presence."Lucas, darling, I've been thinking," she purred, walking over to his desk and leaning on it provocatively. "I miss you. I miss the way we used to be together. I think it's only fair that we start spending more time together."Lucas sighed and leaned back in his chair. "Emily, we've been over this. I can't just drop everything and spend time with you whenever you want me to. I have a wife and a baby on the way."Emily's expression turned sour at the mention of Andrianne. "

Emily sat in her car outside the hospital, watching as Andrianne entered the building. She couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy and anger. It wasn't fair that Andrianne got to have Lucas all to herself, while she was stuck with the knowledge of their affair and an unwanted pregnancy.But Emily wasn't going to let Andrianne have Lucas all to herself anymore. She had to find a way to make him choose her too. She took a deep breath and got out of her car, making her way into the hospital.As she walked towards the antenatal clinic, she spotted Andrianne sitting in the waiting area. Emily's heart sank as she realized she had no idea what to say or do. She decided to just sit a few seats away from Andrianne and pretended not to notice her.Andrianne, who was lost in thought, suddenly felt a presence beside her. She looked up and was surprised to see Emily sitting so close to her."Oh, hi Emily," Andrianne said, trying to sound friendly."Hi Andrianne," Emily replied, trying to sound c

CH 87.Andrianne's car pulled up to the driveway of her mansion, the engine roaring to a stop as she turned off the ignition. She took a deep breath, trying to shake off the nagging feeling in the pit of her stomach. As she stepped out of the car, the cool breeze of the evening air hit her face, making her shiver slightly. She wrapped her arms around herself and walked towards the front door of the house.The mansion was a sight to behold, standing tall and imposing in the middle of a vast expanse of lush green lawn. The elegant architecture and exquisite landscaping were a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the family that owned it. Andrianne had grown up in this mansion and had never grown tired of its beauty.She walked up the steps to the front door and fished her keys out of her bag. As she unlocked the door and stepped inside, she was immediately hit by the scent of her favorite lavender-scented candles. She smiled softly, feeling comforted by the familiar smell.The mans

CH 88.As Lucas lay in bed beside Andrianne, his mind was racing with thoughts of Emily and the impending threat of her showing up at his doorstep. He couldn't bear the thought of his wife finding out about his past relationship with Emily, so he decided to sneak out of bed and take the call.He tiptoed out of the bedroom, making sure not to make any noise that could wake up Andrianne. As he reached his office, he heard the familiar ringtone of Emily's phone call and picked up the phone. Emily's voice was sharp and insistent as she demanded that he spend time with her, just like he did with Andrianne.Lucas felt trapped between his past and present, but before he could respond, he heard footsteps approaching. Panicked, he quickly ended the call and tried to gather his composure as Andrianne asked him what was wrong.Lucas turned to her, trying to sound nonchalant. "Oh, it was just a work emergency, nothing to worry about."Andrianne looked at him with a concerned expression. "Are you

CH 89.Andrianne's heart was pounding as she drove towards Lucas' office, excited to surprise him with a visit. As she arrived, she parked her car and walked towards the building, but before she could enter, she overheard a conversation that made her blood run cold."I'll tell her the truth, Lucas. I'll tell her that the baby is yours."Andrianne's hand went to her mouth in shock as she recognized the voice of Emily. What was she talking about? And why was Lucas with her? Her heart racing, Andrianne approached the room quietly, trying to listen in on their conversation."I won't let you do that, Emily. You promised you wouldn't say anything," Lucas replied, his voice strained."I promised I wouldn't say anything if you spent more time with me, Lucas. But you're always with her," Emily shot back.Andrianne's eyes widened as she realized what was happening. Emily was pregnant with Lucas' child, and he was keeping it a secret from her. Tears began to fill her eyes as she thought about ho

She couldn't bear to be in the same room as him, let alone the same house.Jackie could see the distress on her friend's face and knew something was wrong. She tried to get Andrianne to talk to her, but Andrianne remained silent. She just wanted to be left alone.As the day went by, Andrianne started to feel a little better.

Andrianne hesitated at first, but then broke down and told Jackie

CH 91Lucas rubbed his eyes and squinted at the clock on his nightstand. It was just past 6 in the morning. He groaned as he rolled over, hoping to catch a few more minutes of rest before his busy day began. But his peace was short-lived as his butler, Johnson, knocked on his door and interrupted his sleep."Mr. Lucas, there's a lady here to see you," Johnson said as he poked his head into the room.Lucas groaned again, knowing exactly who the lady was. "Who is it?""Miss Emily, sir," Johnson said, his voice full of disapproval.Lucas sighed and rubbed his temples. "Tell her I'm not available right now. I have a busy day ahead.""I already did, sir," Johnson said, "but she insists on seeing you. She said she won't leave until she talks to you."Lucas cursed under his breath. He knew he had to deal with this now or it would only get worse. He got out of bed and slipped on a robe before following Johnson downstairs. When he reached the living room, he saw Emily sitting on the couch, sur
