"I'm so sorry, Mum, I'm so sorry for all the troubles and the shame I've brought to you and our family," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.

"Oh my God! Dad, yes we are, you startled us," James answered, as he stuttered.He tried to play it cool, but it was clear that he was nervous. His wife, on the other hand, seemed to be seething with anger and frustration. She had been forced to come to this dinner party, and she was not happy about it.As they both stared at each other, faking a smile, they hopped down and hugged him. "I've been waiting for you both for the longest, I thought I was going to get a helping hand from you both, but it's okay, everything all set," he said, his voice filled with excitement. He seemed to be oblivious to the tension between James and Bella, and he just kept on smiling and chatting away. They both exchanged a look and for a moment, they just stared at each other."So, how was your day, dear? You look as amazing as always; my son is really doing a great job, isn't it; you know, he learned from the best," he said, turning to Bella. She forced a smile onto her face, trying to play along as she

Mr. Reed stood in his room, pacing around, waiting for James to come in. He was furious and confused, and he didn't know what to make of the situation.As James entered, "What is she talking about, son? Can someone explain to me?" He looked taken aback, and he tried to deny it. "Dad, I have no idea," he said, shaking his head.Mr. Reed's expression turned incredulous. "What do you mean you have no idea?" he asked, his voice rising. "I'm sure we all heard her mention her daughter being pregnant for you. When did all of these happen without me knowing?" James looked down, avoiding his father's gaze. "It's not what you think, Dad," he said, trying to explain.But Mr. Reed was having none of it. "Now it's not what I think? What do you think I think, Mr. Man? Do you realize the embarrassment you've caused me right in front of people out there?" he said, his voice filled with anger. "You're telling me that you didn't get some girl pregnant and then abandon her? You're telling me that you

“That does not answer my question: what's going on between you two, and what marriage contract are you both talking about?” Mr. Reed asked as he entered the room. The room became silent, as they both stared at each other, unsure of how to respond. The tension in the room was palpable, and Mr. Reed's expression turned from curious to concerned.“Can somebody answer me? Mr. Reed asked again, his voice a little louder this time. Bella took a deep breath and began to explain. "I'm sorry sir, the marriage was all a lie," she said, her voice shaking. "It was a contract, an arrangement between me and James. He wanted someone so he could sign a deal off, while I, on the other hand, needed money to clear off my debt and my sister's hospital bill." Mr. Reed's eyes widened in shock, and he looked at James, then back at Bella."You both gotta be kidding me. What do you mean?" Mr. Reed asked, his voice filled with confusion. "So you both are trying to tell me you signed a marriage contract, and

Finally, Mr. Reed dropped all charges leveled against Emily, and she was released, accompanied home by her mum, As they got home, Emily couldn't help but feel a sense of relief and happiness. "I'm super happy to be back home; thank you, Mum," she said, hugging her mother tightly. Mrs. Valerie welcomed her daughter back home with open arms, tears of joy streaming down her face."Welcome back home my darling," she said, holding Emily close. "I'm so sorry for what you've been through. I feel like I've failed you as a mother." But Emily quickly interrupted her mother, saying she should be the one apologizing, not her.“Mum, you shouldn't be apologizing to me," she said. "I'm the one who should be apologizing to you. I'm the one who put you through all of this, and now I'm pregnant with the same man."Mrs. Valerie's expression turned serious, but she quickly assured her daughter that everything would be fine. "It's okay, everything will be fine," she said, giving Emily a big hug. "We'll g

Steve and James were sitting at the office after a brief meeting with the staff, apologizing for the scene at the party, both discussing the recent events that had unfolded. "Hmm, I told you, James, I warned you from the start; I knew this whole marriage thing was going to do you no good but harm, " he said. "How do you think your dad feels about you right now? He doesn't even trust you anymore, and you know he isn't getting any younger." James looked down, feeling a sense of shame and guilt. He knew that he had let his father down, and it was eating away at him."I'm so confused right now, I feel empty right now," he replied, his voice barely above a whisper. "I don't know how to face him, I don't know how to look at him in the face anymore, and also Bella, they are both my only concern." Steve quickly asked, "Quick one, you said Emily's pregnancy isn't for you, right?" James nodded, feeling a sense of confusion and uncertainty."I thought the same too, Steve," he said. "I could s

James rushed home and got into the house, “Babe, Babe, Bella,” he called out.But as he entered the living room, he was shocked by who he saw waiting for him. "What's going on here? What the hell are you both doing in my house?" he asked, his voice firm and authoritative. Emily and her mother were sitting on the couch, looking like they were making themselves right at home. James' eyes narrowed as he looked at them. "Look, I have no idea of the kind of game you're trying to play but trust me, it's way too dangerous. Whatever happened, it's all in the past," he said, trying to keep his cool.But then he noticed the luggage. "Wait a minute, what's with the luggage?" he asked, his eyes scanning the room. "Is something going on that I do not know of?" Emily stood up, going to welcome James, a big smile on her face. "Hey, love, welcome back home, you know, I've been waiting for you for the longest," she said, as she tried to touch him. But James quickly avoided her, taking a step back.

Miranda was so tired as she tried to relax, she felt like something was wrong. She had been trying to calm her nerves for a while now, but she just couldn't shake off the feeling that something was off. She looked around the room, trying to distract herself, but her eyes kept drifting back to the empty space where her sister should be. She got up and walked over to Mia, who was sitting on the couch, staring at her phone. "Mia, I've been willing to ask, but something seems off to me. What's going on?" she asked, trying to keep her voice calm. "I haven't seen my sister since my return, neither is any of her belongings in the room. Don't you think it's weird?"Mia looked up, a look of concern on her face. "Don't worry, she will be back real soon," she said, trying to reassure Miranda. "Probably she's busy at work and about her belongings; she kept them somewhere, reasons best known to her." But Miranda wasn't convinced. She had a feeling that something was wrong, and she couldn't shak

James shook his head, trying to clear the confusion. "Wait a minute, the lady you're talking about is Emily?" he said, his voice slow and deliberate.“Emily right here is the reason I'm in town, the same woman who does want me in her life and that of our unborn child, and surprisingly, she's here trying to pin my own child on another man who doesn't even want her. How pathetic can you be Emily?” He said, feeling disgusted by Emily's act.“Phi..Phil? What are you doing here? Ho..how do you both know each other? She asked as she stuttered.She stood there, her face burning with embarrassment, as she took to her heels, her mum following closely behind.

Emily walked to the center of the crowd, trying to draw attention. She stood tall, her eyes scanning the sea of faces before her. "Attention, everybody," she said, her voice clear and strong.

Emily was sitting on her bed, staring at her phone in frustration. Phil began disturbing her phone with calls, and she decided to pick up. “What is it? For God's sake, what do you want from me Phil?" she asked, her voice firm and annoyed. "I have told you countless times to stop calling me, we've got no business together." Phil's voice was calm and persuasive on the other end of the line. "C'mon Emily, why are you acting weird? We both know I am the father of the child you're carrying, so allow me to take my responsibilities."Her anger and frustration boiled over at his words. "What stupid responsibilities?" she spat. "I have told you we've got no business together and no child together whatsoever. Just leave me alone, Phil." His tone turned slightly aggressive, and Emily could sense the desperation in his voice. "Emily, don't be like this. I know we had a thing, and I know I'm the father of your child. I want to be involved in your lives, and I want to take care of you both."Emi

James didn't want to hear it. He didn't want to accept that his dad might not make it. He held his hand, talking to him, trying to keep him awake. "Dad, stay with me," he said, his voice shaking. "Please, don't leave me. I need you." Dr. Smith held his shoulder, his eyes filled with a deep sense of concern. "I think you should get your wife here, or it's too late," he said, his voice low and urgent. "It's possible he wants to say something important."

He tried calling her again, but it went straight to voicemail.He wasn't sure where to go, or what to do. He knew that he had to find his wife, but he had no idea where she was. He thought about going to the hospital where Miranda was; he was certain she must have been discharged by now and he doubted she would be there. He knew that the only place to go to was her previous apartme

Both best friends decided to go drinking to clear their heads, sitting at the bar, drinking and chatting.James was nursing a whiskey on the rocks, while Steve was sipping on a beer. The bartender, a friendly woman with a warm smile, was polishing a glass and listening in on their conversation. James was staring into his drink, his eyes lost in thought. Steve, noticing his friend's distant expression, decided to speak up."Yo man, I think it's high time you reduce your intake of alcohol," he advised, his voice laced with concern. "It's getting too much. You're drinking every night, and it's starting to affect your daily life, you rarely come to work. I think you should give this girl a break not after everything that has happened." He looked up, his eyes narrowing slightly as he gazed at Steve. "Bro, just let me be," he said, his voice low and even. "I'll be fine. I just want to drink to clear my head off, and that's all; without her, I can't think straight; she isn't responding to m

Miranda tried sitting up, confused about what was going on and what James was talking about. "What truth is he talking about, Bella?" she asked, turning to her sister with a look of confusion. She then turned to Mia and asked."What's going on, can somebody please talk to me? Who is this young man and what truth is he talking about?"

"He's my husband, on a contract, but trust me, all of these will soon be over," she added, her voice barely above a whisper.

Are you trying to tell me you got married without letting your only family hear about it?" she shouted, her voice rising in anger and hurt.She looked down, feeling guilty and ashamed. "I know I should have told you, Mimi, but it was all

"C’mon, Bella, you've been like this for weeks; you need to get a hold of yourself," James said, his voice filled with concern as he noticed Bella's mood. "I promise, Miranda will be found and brought back." Bella looked up at him, her eyes red from crying, and her face pale with worry. "How sure are you?" she asked, her voice shaking with fear. "It's been weeks, and we haven't even heard anything from them, and neither are the police saying anything. She's the only family I've got, and you want me to act like nothing has happened to her."He took a deep breath and pulled Bella into a hug.

"The police are doing everything they can to find her, and I'm sure they'll come up with something soon." She pulled back and looked at him, her eyes searching for answers.

"You need to calm down, babe, I had to rush down here immediately; I got your call," James said, trying to calm Bella down. "Trust me, if the kidnap isn't connected to anybody, we will surely get a call from them requesting a ransom; let's just give them a few hours." Bella, whose eyes were filled with tears, shook her head. "I'm just confused, what's going on?" she asked, her voice trembling. "First, it was me, now my innocent sister...

"We'll find out who's behind this and we'll get your sister back safely." Steve, who had been quiet until now, joined the conversation. "Don't worry, I promise we'll get her back," he said, his voice filled with determination. "But I had no idea you've got a sister all these while." Bella sniffled, wiping her tears with her sleeve."She was at the hospital all
