Jay went home feeling a bit worried about the whole thing. He wasn't sure if he was making the right choice or the wrong one. He was still busy with his thoughts when Kim appeared in front of him.

"What are you thinking about?." Kim asked.

"uh?".

Kim folded his arms while looking at Jay. Ignoring him, Jay went to his room but Kim followed after him.

"Where have you been?".

"Out". He replied bluntly.

"To where and with whom?". Jay was confused.

"Since when do you become so engrossed in my life; what I do and where I go?" Jay asked.

"Are you interrogating me right now?". He looked at Kim while waiting for an answer but he was silent. "Wow!". Jay said in surprise as he tried to walk out on him but Kim grabbed his hand and pulled him back.

Jay smiled. "You know, I'm starting to wonder if peradventure you have a thing or two for this girl".

He asked."She isn't feeling too well, so she decided to take the day off.""Why didn't she tell me that?""She did but you refused.""No, she told me she needs a day off and when I asked why she didn't reply.""I don't blame her if she didn't tell you.""Excuse me."Riele gave him a fake smile and said, "If there is anything you'd like me to help you with, don't hesitate to ask me."Kim ignored her and left.

She didn't understand why Madison would be interested in getting Kim when Jay was right there in front of her. She figured that she was spending more time thinking than focusing so she cleared her head and focused more on the shoot. "The next pose, I want you guys to look at each other and pretend like you want to kiss each other." The photographer directed. Jay glanced a little at Riele and when she caught sight of him, she wondered why he was glancing at her. "Jay, I need you to concentrate, look at your partner and try to kiss her." It's just a pretending kiss, it's not like you are even going to kiss her. Jay said to himself as he did the pose and when the photographer took the picture

Riele wasn’t shocked about it because she knew the truth already but she was shocked that Charlotte would discuss it without telling her about it. “What do you mean?” Jay asked. “Is it the same ‘pregnant’ I know about or is it another word for something I do not know about?” Charlotte smiled, “it is the same ‘pregnant’ you know about.” “How many weeks?” Kim asked. “Four weeks.” “The father?” He asked. Charlotte looked at Riele before telling them who the father was. “You are saying Kim Utter is the father? The same Kim Utter I told Riele to get as the male model?” Charlotte and Riele nodded. “That was why I tried talking you out of it.

She greeted Madison but ignored Utter. “Hi, Maddy,” she greeted with a smile. “Shouldn’t you be at work?” “I was fired.” “What?” She nodded and went on to tell what happened, but she hid the part where she slapped Riele. “I pleaded with him to forgive me, but he was adamant,” she shrugged. “I don’t think that makes any sense.” Charlotte thought about the whole scenario, but they didn’t make any sense to her. “Why would Kim behave so irrationally?” Madison shrugged. “I see you are doing pretty well.” She smiled and nodded. “Yes, I am.” “Who’s the father?” Madison asked, without a second thought. “Um…” she bit her lips and glanced at Utter, who was waiting for her response. “Is your child a bastard?” Madison whispered. “No, he is not.

    Riele was running so she could get to the hospital in time. She had no idea why she didn't board a taxi instead of running. She was happy and a great joy filled her heart as she thought about the text she received from the doctor. Her thought was disturbed by the continuous beeping of a car. She was getting irritated because she felt the beeping was directed toward but she was on the sidewalk and not the road, so why the beeping? She asked herself and then she turned only to find a Rolls-Royce Phantom driving in her direction and the moment she stopped, the car stopped and the driver rolled down the window and she saw it was her boss.
