So he thought she had gone out of her ward again, without the Nurse's knowledge.He went out and met with a nurse, the same nurse who was in charge of taking care of the old Lady."Hey." Jerome waved at her."Mr Jerome. Long time, no see. Miss Mercy had been asking for you all the time, even the day we lost her." The Nurse exclaimed and Jerome looked at her."What do you mean until we lost her?"

Does she still love me? Or maybe she wasn't feeling too well?"

*The Engagement party*It was the day of the engagement.Despite Stacy's sadness, she dressed up so elegantly and wore a red fitted gown that gave justice to her well-endowed body.Her belly had begun protruding and the pregnancy was looking good on her, adding an extra glow to the already existing goddess look she had.Stacy stood in front of the mirror, panting.She had been rehearsing how to act normal and pretend everything was well but she couldn't stop getting nervous.She felt like she would not be able to control her emotions when she saw Jerome.Kelly joined her in the room."Okay, I had missed seeing this side of my elegant sister. You are looking so beautiful tonight, Sissy." Kelly exclaimed."Looking at myself in the mirror, I just realized how much I had let loose of myself," Stacy replied and faced Kelly.Kelly picked a lipgloss and put a little on Stacy's lips as her lips were chapped."Thank you."

*The Next day*Stacy was done giving a speech at the board meeting, and it ended in a absolute applaud.They were glad to have her back and her ideas are always top notched.On her way back to the office, while she was exchanging pleasantries, her assistant came to call her."Good day, Miss Stacy. You have a guest." She announced."Oh, a guest. Um…" Stacy paused and turned to the board member she was speaking with."I will catch up with you later sir." She said."Sure, go ahead, Ma'am. You did an excellent presentation. Looking forward to more from you." The Man said with a handshake and left."Shall we?" Stacy asked."Sure." The assistant answered and took the lead, while Stacy followed her.They arrived at the waiting room close to her office and she was shocked to see the guest."Liam!"

Kelly and Stacy alighted at the ice cream shop.It has been their favorite ice cream shop since childhood and of course, Kelly insisted on driving the brand new Lamborghini Mr Sky got for Stacy.They sat down, and the waiter joined them shortly."Good day Ma'am. Would you like to place your order?" The waiter asked with a sweet smile."Um, my sister is pregnant." Kelly giggled and Stacy opened her mouth."Wow, congratulations, I'm happy for you." The waiter beamed."Yeah, that means she will love to taste all the flavors, so bring all the flavors you have." Kelly said firmly and refused to laugh."Sure, right away." The waiter said, flashed them a smile and left to get their orders ready."You are insane, Kelly, hope you know that!" Stacy groaned."Yeah, insane because I told the waiter you are pregnant? Girl, I need the world to know I'm soon going to become an aunt, and if that happens, I'm gonna shut down the whole city, huhooo." Kelly exclaimed and Stacy just shrugged at her silli
"What is this?" Jerome bellowed, throwing the pregnancy papers in Stacy's face. His dark hair was disheveled, his eyes wild with rage. "How could you be pregnant? You know you're not supposed to be!" Stacy sat frozen on the couch, the papers fluttering to the floor around her. "It's not my fault," she stammered, trying to defend herself. "You're the one who...who..." "Don't you dare try to pin this on me!" Jerome roared, his voice shaking the room. "I was drunk, you took advantage of me,” Jerome replied. "You think being drunk gives you an excuse?" Stacy retorted, standing up to face him. "You're a grown man, you should know better. And don't you dare try to blame me for what happened? I'm not the one who initiated anything. You're the one who couldn't control yourself." "Oh please," Jerome scoffed. "Don't act like some innocent victim. You know you wanted this, that is why you planned it. You wanted it just as much, if not more." Stacy recoiled as if struck. "That's not true.”
