James told his parents that since they loved their grandchild he would marry me,” said Serene crying. “Have they set the wedding date?” asked Macy.Serene sighed, “The date has not been set yet, I think they are waiting for James to come around. I’m scared that I will be showing up soon.James' parents never liked me, they tolerated me because of the baby.” said Serene sorrowfully, she was regretful for not having a good relationship with James’s mother.“Don’t be stressed my friend, it’s not good for the baby, why don’t you ask your mother-in-law how far they are with wedding preparations.” said Macy.When Macy left, Serene asked her mother-in-law about the wedding.

“Serene, who was that man who took Victoria away? He looked familiar.

I know Mrs Johnson will support me because she hates Victoria,” said Serene arrogantly.Macy was so scared, she had never been arrested before, and her family would be disappointed. Her family was not like Serene’s in-laws.“Serene, the vibe between Victoria and that man wasn’t like lovers; it was like a father-daughter relationship.When they bail you out, please don’t forget about me, my family will be very angry to know that I beat someone and got arrested.”Serene said with pride, “Don’t worry, my in-laws wouldn’t allow me to spend a day in police custody since I’m carrying their grandchild.” While they were talking, Serene was taken to an interrogation room.

When he arrived home, his parents were discussing Serene’s video.Mrs Johnson was shaking her head, “I’m so disappointed in Serene, and what if something happened to our grandchild?” James sneered and said, “Serene doesn’t care about the baby, she wants Mrs Johnson's title.”James told his parents that when he visited Serene at the police station, she didn’t show any remorse. He told them that Serene said Timothy Anthony was Victoria’s sugar daddy.He looked at his father and said, “Daddy, I wish that I had listened to you when you told me that Serene was not a good person. I wish that I had tried harder when I was married to Victoria.I regret not listening to you Daddy. I wish that Mom supported you when you were trying to teach me a lesson. Now I know how much you loved me, Dad. My heart is broken into pieces.”His mother was sad when he heard Jam
