2021-07-22 18:49:39I woke up to my alarm. It's my birthday. I'm already 25. Oh my gosh. I'm already 25. I checked my clock and it's just 7am and I remembered Marc's going to meet me before 9am. I took a shower and changed into my favorite black V-neck shirt and shorts. I looked at the mirror and looked at myself. I look pale. God, I really look pale. I added powder to my face. I combed my hair and put on perfume.
As expected, the doorbell rang. I opened to see Marc wearing his signature outfit. White shirt, jeans, and sneakers.
"Happy birthday, Kate." Oh so he knew. I blushed.
"Thanks. Come in."
"Uh..no thanks. Come with me." I looked at him with confusion.
"Hey!" He grabbed

Stella's POVI was so excited when my brother announced that he was taking Kate out on her birthday. He even asked me to arrange a birthday party the next day. Well here I am calling Carla, Bianca and Jaime to help me. They were excited too."Stella, I will buy food and the cake." Carla said. I nodded and said, "Buy Kate's favorites." She nodded."Jaime, I want you to inform the others and tell them not to tell Kate. To avoid suspicions." He nodded and walked away. I'm assuming he's already calling the others."Bianca, help me find Kate's brother." Bianca squealed with excitement.After a few hours, we finally found her brother's number. I dialed it and waited.

"Did you honestly believe he was in love with you?" Isabella shared her thoughts. I couldn't say anything because I couldn't speak. "We had reached an agreement. He needed to end his relationship with you and become mine after you confessed your feelings for him in order to save his company from bankruptcy." She expressed herself.I looked at Troy in disbelief. Tears were forming and my heart's starting to ache. "Aww...little girl starts to cry. You really didn't know, did you? Looks like Troy used his sweet words to charm you.""Is this true, Troy? That this is just a game?" He didn't speak. My blood started to boil."Is this true?!? Is this some kind of joke to you? I thought you loved me!" He still didn't speak.

Marc's POVI woke up with Kate cuddling me. I watched her sleep. Her face looks calm and cute. A strand of hair covered her face so I tucked it behind her ear. She shifted so I tried not to move much.After a while, her eyes fluttered open. "Morning sunshine." I said, smiling at her. "Morning.." She said weakly. Her eyes are a bit puffy from last night. She suddenly pulled away from me and said, "Oh my god...I..uh..I'm gonna take a shower.." She ran quickly in the bathroom. I think she felt embarrassed to be cuddling with me. I just chuckled and turned on the tv.Kate's POVOhmygosh!! How long has he been looking at me? I was even cuddling him. Then, I remembered my nightmare last night. I can't believe I told him that Troy's my ex. I have to tell him not to cancel the partnership. It's

"Mommy! Look! Daddy got me a toy car!" Xavier ran to me, holding his toy. Marc came back from his business trip to Canada. "Wanna open it with mommy?" He shook his head and ran to his playroom. I smiled and turned to Marc. "You're spoiling him, you know." Marc shrugged and gave me a kiss on the cheek. "I've got you something." He took out a small box. He opened it and there's a necklace with a maple leaf pendant. "You shouldn't have. I have a lot of necklaces, Marc." "Shh. Come on, let me put it on." I turned around for him to clasp it around my neck. I felt him encircle his arms around my waist.

Kate's POVI got discharged from the hospital two weeks later. Marc insisted that I stay at home for a week. We practically argued the whole ride home. After a while, I gave up. I guess being stabbed and losing a baby made me lose energy."Hey...you okay?" I heard Marc ask before touching my hand."Yeah..I just didn't expect this would happen to us. Everything's going so well.""I know. Don't worry. We caught the man. Detective Hale will be asking you some questions tomorrow. We'll find out who the real culprit is." He said, reassuring me. I smiled and hugged him. We got out of the car and went inside. I went to the guest room and gasped. The room's empty. I went inside, opened my closet, and gasped.

Kate's POVI haven't had a chance to speak with Marc yet. It's been two days since I discovered that I'm expecting a child. I'm still feeling a little overwhelmed. I kept myself occupied last night by reading all of the brochures that Stella had given me. I came to the realization that I couldn't be stressed. I made the decision to speak with Marc about the events that had occurred. I suppose it's difficult to have uncompleted business. I'm currently sitting at my desk, contemplating what I'll say to him when the time comes. I couldn't tell him I was expecting a child, especially with Margo in the room with me."Kate." Speaking of…"Yes?""Can we talk?" I looked up and saw Marc."That is not the case here. I'm thinking about it after work. I have to be ba

I told her about my feelings for Marc and how I came to be in love with him. I also informed her that I was at a loss for what to do. I've been feeling a little under the weather the past two days.
