Mr Adams and Ryan took their seats after giving Jerome a nasty look.

Jerome closed his eyes and opened them.

"The meeting was scheduled for 10:00, can you check the time now?" Jerome asked.

Ryan chuckled.

"It's 11:20, and so?" Ryan answered.

"The meeting was supposed to start by ten but you rudely decided to waste our time. You should apologize for that." Jerome said, in a demanding tone.

"Oh, you think I should? Why should I? I can come whatever time I want, and the meeting has to wait, you know why? Coz I'm the CEO, do I need to spell that for you?" Ryan said, laughing.

"Yeah, continue laughing and show everyone how much of a fool you are!" Jerome spat.

"Enough, Jerome!" Mr Adams cut in.

"No, why don't you tell your mannerless son to shut up! If you had taught him some manners, he would have known better to come to a meeting early as a new CEO, fool." Jerome ranted.

"If I were you, I will watch my tone because I can get you fired and there is nothing you can do." Ryan blurted.

She whispered, handed her a card, and cat walked out of the ward.Kelly was furious."Uhhgg! What the heck did she come here to do! I can't stand her!"

He asked.Kelly didn't respond to him."Kelly, talk to me. Has something happened to Stacy again? Is it her health? Talk to me." Jerome pleaded."Stacy…she, she fainted." Kelly said and started crying."What! How! What happened to her! Tell me." Jerome said, shaking. He was in between tears and the worried reaction on his face almost made her scream it out that it was all a plan and Stacy is doing very fine.

    After sharing the cake, Jerome couldn't help but noticed Stacy's switch of mood.One minute she is lively and the next meeting she would be deep in thoughts, completely ignorant of their discussions.When Angela and Kelly were talking, Jerome pulled Stacy to him."Baby, are you okay?" He asked."Yeah, why?" Stacy answered, smiling quickly."Are you sure?" Jerome asked lifting her head and made her looked in his eyes.She looked away chuckling."It's probably the mood swings. So, I'm totally fine. I promise." Stacy answered."Hey guys! Are you guys planning on making another baby? Uh no, nah, you have to push this one out first, sissy." Kelly interrupted and Angela's mouth hung on up, surprised at how Kelly speak without feeling shy."You need some filtering in your words, baby girl." Stacy snapped."Oh, I'm not a child, didn't you guys did....""Leave me alone! Uhhh!" Kelly screamed as Angela pulled her and covered her mouth with her hands, stopping her from completing the sentence.S

    After Angela and Kelly's departure, Jerome turned to Stacy."So, now that we are all alone, can you tell me what the problem is?"

And yes are definitely lying." Jerome stated."Come on baby, I was just stressed out with all the decorations, I promise I'm fine." Stacy replied, smiling.Jerome was not convinced fully, but he saw Stacy was bent on not telling him what's wrong so he decided to let it slide."So... everyone had given me a gift, aren't you going to give me any?" Jerome asked jokingly, holding her waist and pulled her closer.Stacy throw her arms over his shoulder."Saving the best for last." Stacy said and went inside the ward, then brought out a beautiful, colorful bag."Happy birthday, my love." She beamed as she handed him the bag.Jerome's eyes lit up."Thank you, now I'm so excited

You are looking beautiful, baby." Jerome said and kissed her forehead."Thank you baby. Got to look good for my baby's birthday, right." Stacy replied, making him blushed."So, did the doctor gave us his permission, or he was being adamant as usual?" Stacy inquired."He advised against it, but he later on agreed." Jerome answered."To be honest, I was only asking for formalities, and to be safe, not because I actually cared if he will give us his consents for not. After all, nothing can stop me." Stacy retorted.Jerome was stunned by Stacy sudden confidence and her drama.He laughed over it and they headed out.A car was already waiting for them at the hospital parking Lott and a chauffeur."Wow!"

    Curiosity had taken over Jerome, but he cannot say anything rather than wait for whatever next surprise Stacy had planned for him.The car stopped and Jerome looked around.To his surprise, it was a cemetery, and not just any cemetery but the one his mother was being buried in.He remembered vividly when he had to watch her get buried deep inside the ground.It was the worst day of his life, the day he lost his mother, every light in his life left with her.He was just trying so hard to continue pushing, but nothing was making sense at all.Most of the time, he would frequently visit her, but he stopped along the line because she never listened to his cries, his sorrows, she never answered him back or even show him a sign that she was with him all through despite crying to her for long hours.Jerome turned to Stacy with a mixture of sadness, tears already welled up in his eyes, but in those teary eyes were a mixture of gratefulness and excitement."Stacy…how were you able to pull this
