Luke stood outside Zach's gate, watching as the gate was being fixed. For some reason, his mind kept going back to the moment he had seen Barbie running towards his car and how she had cried.Before that time, he had always seen her with Paige, and he had always liked her from a distance, but he never tried to get close to her because he was more focused on his work and he didn't think Zach would be comfortable with it. Seeing that Zach and he had gotten closer and Zach now treated him as a friend, also seeing Paige's interaction with Barbie, he felt that both of them could be good friends.But then, she was pregnant, and he could not help but wonder who the father was. Why was she running away from Zach's house? Did her pregnancy have anything to do with him? These were questions he'd have loved to get answers to, but he wanted to finish his work first before doing so.Taking his phone out of his pocket, he called Barbie, but she didn't answer. He called a few more times but she sti
Zach's car pulled up in front of a tall building and he went inside while holding Paige's hand. A lot of stares were thrown in their direction but Paige felt grateful that there were no reporters outside the building because she was not in the mood to deal with them.They had just left her father's house, after having a party and celebrating her return. Her manager called to tell them about an interview after he heard from Zach that Paige had regained her memory.A few minutes later, the interview began and the camera focused on Paige as the interviewer asked, "After everything that has happened so far, how do you feel and what are your plans from here on?"Zach held Paige's hand and stroked her knuckles lovingly as she said, "I feel very grateful, especially to the man sitting beside me."She became emotional when her gaze settled on Zach as she continued, "I can't believe that a day that was supposed to be very special to us was ruined by the last person we ever thought could stoop s
Once Williams was taken to the police station, he was given the opportunity to make a phone call. News of his arrest had already spread around the station since the order had come from the police chief.One of the policemen who was on his payroll informed Williams's lawyer of his arrest, asking him to come quickly so Williams could be bailed out. When the policeman got closer to Williams, he secretly informed him that the plan was to make him spend the rest of his life in prison. The request had come from Zach and he was best friends with the police chief.When he heard this, Williams gritted his teeth and for the first time, he felt a deep hatred for Zach. He also blamed Barbie since all his plans got ruined, thanks to her.In spite of everything, if he had married her, he would have spared her for betraying him. He would have only used her to further his plans but he would have ensured that their child had a good life.He thought about who to call. Hailey was useless to him at this
When they arrived at the police station, Barbie said to Luke, "Please wait in the car while I go in and see Williams briefly.""Are you sure you'll be alright?" He asked.She nodded and went into the station. When she met Williams, he seemed calm and sad, as opposed to the anxious man who desperately wanted to marry her earlier. His hands were handcuffed before she was allowed to get close to him.Her heart bled, seeing how pitiful he looked but she knew that she wasn't in a position to stop what he was going through, especially because he deserved it."Hi," she said to him.He nodded, "Hey, Barbie. Thanks for coming. I had no one else to call. Everyone has deserted me, except you.Barbie, please help me. If I spend the rest of my life here, my company and everything else I've worked for, all my life, will be gone.I want to support our child and that company belongs to him or her. If you fight by my side, we will overcome this, Barbie. We will get married afterward and be one happy f
Luke drove Barbie to a restaurant where Paige and Zach were waiting to meet her. Paige had chosen the location because it was closer to the lake where she had earlier been with Zach.She wanted to make it easier for Zach to continue with his plans after Barbie left. "What do you think Barbie wants to say about Lina?" She asked Zach.He shook his head, "I have no idea. I'm pretty sure it's not something good though. If it were, Barbie would not have said she would tell you in person."Paige sighed and at this time, Luke's car pulled up in front of the restaurant."You've had quite an eventful day," Luke said to Barbie.She nodded, "Yeah, I guess you're right.""Try not to get yourself too worked up, okay? Do not forget your condition and what the doctor said about getting sufficient rest," he added with a caring tone.Barbie flashed him a smile, "Thank you very much, Luke, for everything you've done for me today. I know that you probably had so many better things you could have done,
Barbie hurried out of the restaurant and towards the road to get a cab. She was feeling very nauseous and dizzy. She had initially wanted to explain how she was feeling to Zach and Paige. However, seeing the effect Lina's actions had on Paige, she decided to quickly go back home and get enough rest.The doctor had also advised it, and it was what Luke had been worried about. She quickly stopped a cab, got into it, and gave the driver her home address.Meanwhile, Zach held Paige's hand as they walked out of the restaurant.When they got into his car, Paige said, "I need to speak to my dad first.""Okay," Zach replied.He called Melvin, and Paige asked, "Dad, are you and Mom at home?"Melvin said, "Yeah, we're about to go out to have dinner. Is everything okay?""No, there's no problem," she replied. "I'm coming home right now, please just give me a few minutes. I'll be there soon. You both can go out after.""Of course, Princess. It's fine; we'll wait," Melvin replied.As they drove ba
Paige scoffed, "Make Zach yours? Williams told you to help him destroy my wedding, so he would help you get Zach? You mean you still had your eyes on my fiancé? How dare you?"Paige rushed towards Lina, wanting to slap her again. However, this time, Melvin's voice rang loud as he ordered, "That is enough! Enough, both of you."Both Paige and Lina turned and stared at him.Lina said, "Dad, I'm sorry. I am telling you the whole truth. I really wanted the best for Paige; I never planned to do anything evil. Williams met me, he said a lot, and he capitalized on my weakness; he said... he messed with my mind, and I let him lure me.""Shut up," Paige said. "Stop trying to make excuses. You? A tramp like you who was having sex with two guys in your college at the same time? Oh yes, Lina, I know all about your cheap ways, and I know just how disgusting you are, and you expected that someone like my Zach would end up with a tramp like you?""Hold on, Paige," Melvin said, "I know you're upset,
Saturday came in a flash, and it was already time for Paige and Zach's wedding.During the days leading up to the wedding, they spent a lot of time together, going to quiet places to be alone and enjoying each other's company.All Paige could talk about was the wedding and what was going to happen afterward, and most of the time, Zach just stared at her, smiling and paying attention to everything she was saying.What excited him even more than the wedding was how happy Paige was because she was getting married to him. It meant so much to him.During this time, Barbie and Luke also got closer. He called her over the phone in the morning, afternoon, and evening to check up on her and to find out how her baby was doing. He also picked her up once to go to the hospital to meet the doctor and run a few tests, since her constant nausea made it difficult for her to drive.Now that the wedding day finally arrived, Paige was beside herself with joy, but she was also afraid because of her past
