"How did that even hap.. christ!!!" Aaron ran a hand over his face.Things were silent between the trio for a minute as everyone was drowned in their thoughts."So what's going to happen now? This is so humiliating. Are you sure the baby is Connor's?""I believe so," Rita answered while Lilian looked like someone that was ready to pass out.Aaron took out his phone from his pocket."What are you doing?" His wife asked."Calling Connor." He dialed the number and brought his phone to his ear.His number didn't go through.Aaron went through his contact list again in search of the alternate number."Is your Boss in the office?" He asked the moment the person on the other end picked up the call."When did he step out?""Okay, thank you." He ended the call."He's not in the office," Aaron said to Rita and Lilian."You okay," he referred to his wife."No." She took some steps back and plopped down on the edge of the bed.Aaron crouched down before her, taking her hand in his. "Your hands ar
"Just please shut the fuck up!" She raised her voice at him, not being able to control the tears that rolled down her cheeks."I hate you so much, Connor Martin. You're worse than the devil and God sees my heart that I will never want a child where you are the father of the baby.""How dare you speak to me that way? Why the hell would I be attracted to your fucking wealth when I'm okay with working to live a decent life. If you hadn't lured me to bed that night, you think I would be standing before you with a ruined life?"He glared at her as she spoke."Yes, I'm pregnant but I don't want this baby." She pointed to her stomach. "The last thing I want is to have a bond that will make me forever tied to you! You disgust the living hell out of me and I don't want to have anything to ever do with you.""The doctor wouldn't approve the abortion without your consent so just come with me to the hospital, make it known that that's what we both want, the procedure will be done and then we go o
"See what you've done?!" Connor said with venom in his voice, approaching Nancy where she stood.Nadia got in their middle before her brother could approach Nancy."What the hell is wrong with you, Connor? How dare you put the blame on her? For heavens sake, you know you want no Babies, and yet you fucking came in her! How is that her fault?""The baby's not mine. I can't let her get away with ruining my life.""I know you obviously don't want this but this attitude is becoming too low of you. I mean what the hell do you fucking want? She asked you to come with her to give your consent for abortion. You refused and here you are, acting all up like a retard.""Don't raise your voice at me, Nadia. I'm now convinced that you are in this with her.""So unfortunate for you to say. Just because I'm over here protecting your innocent child who happens to be my niece or nephew?""You should be really ashamed of yourself." Nadia spat at him."You both don't have to fight because of me.""Stay
"The family Doctor confirmed it. DNA will also be conducted when it's safe to do so.""So what's going to happen to us?" Diane tried to hide the fact that her eyes were already becoming teary. "Our wedding is in two days. Everything is in place already.""What do you think?" He asked calmly, not because he needed her to help him decide but because he wanted to know what was running through her mind."We....we can still go on with the wedding. No one has to know about her." She gestured towards Nancy who was staring down at her feet. "If the DNA comes positive, we keep the baby.""We?" Connor arched his brow."I mean the nanny will raise him or her.""Okay, so what about the mother?""What about her? You're not going to leave your child with her so it's good you fire her after she gives birth.""Oh really?""Of course. You messed up and I'm here trying to salvage the situation. You don't like her. She won't be of any use so why keep her.""Your mom has been bugging me about a grandchil
"Quit giving me that look!""Are you being serious? You are not going to go after her?" Nadia waved towards the door."What do you expect me to do? Can't you see that she truly wants to leave?""And you're going to let her leave? How dumb can you be, Connor?"He said nothing, made his way to the bar area, and topped his drink."Mom, Dad, are you all not going to say anything?""What do you want us to say?" Lilian voiced out in irritation."Sis, that girl is not in a good medical condition. She needs so much care and attention. She's not just going to give birth to any baby. That baby is going to be you all's Grandchild." Rita said to Lilian and Aaron."They obviously don't give a fuck! They want Diane so bad that they can't see the evil bitch she is." Nadia bluttered out."Watch your mouth, Nadia.""Hell no.""I respect you both so much but whenever the opportunity pops up to say the truth, I won't fail to throw it in everyone's faces.""Enough, Nadia!" Connor's hoarse voice came thro
The box was placed in the trunk of the car after which they occupied the driver's and front passenger's seat.Nadia drove out of the mansion, in the direction of the train station."Are you sure you are still going to get a ticket for tonight?""I hope so and if I don't, I'll stay there till the next one is available."Nadia nodded, with her attention on the road.After what felt like forever, the duo got to the station. Nadia parked her car, then escorted Nancy in. They went straight to the ticket table and fortunately, a train was leaving for her hometown in Fifty minutes.Nadia beat Nancy to it by paying for the ticket."Thank you." She said shyly."It's nothing. Let's get you something to eat before it's time.""I'm not hungry.""We can still get snacks. You'll take them on the train. It's a two-hour journey, remember?"Nancy nodded.They stopped by at the food store, and got a few things for Nancy after which Nadia pleaded with Nancy to go with her to a gadget store. Nancy sat so
Three Years Later!Nadia was in the kitchen, trying to put breakfast together for her family when her phone buzzed on the kitchen counter.She closed the cabinet she opened earlier, then went ahead to pick up her phone.She smiled upon seeing the Caller ID, before answering the call."Good morning, Auntie.""Good morning, my love. How's my favorite niece doing?""Great and you?""I'm doing amazing, Auntie.""What about Lenora and your husband?""We are doing good. Thank you.""Been a while we saw and spoke. But I'll be seeing you today right?""Today? What's happening today?" She sounded confused."Nadia!!!" Rita groaned from the other end."You know how much I take you seriously, Aunt Rita. I wouldn't joke with you if I knew what you were talking about.""Your Father's Birthday.""What about it?""It was two days ago. I sent him a text wishing him. And Charles sent him a gift on our behalf.""There's going to be a small party at the mansion this evening. Just family dinner. Your fath
Charles parked the car, turned off the engine and his wife still refused to unbuckle her seat belt.He sighed, unbuckled his seat belt, then turned his attention to her."I changed my mind. Let's go home."Charles frowned. "That must be a joke."She sighed, turning her attention to him. "You don't understand me, babe.""Then make me understand. I've got the time to hear your explanation. We've come all the way here. Why turn back at this stage?" He said, taking a glance at their daughter who was in the back seat, focused on her tab, watching cartoons."I'm really not in the mood to make conversations. I can see familiar cars and I'm stressed out already. Remember what the doctor said?""I know and I remember all that the doctor said. You of all people know that I wouldn't put your life in danger. I only want what's best for you, which is for you to reconcile with your family."Nadia didn't say anything.They all miss you, babe. Your mom literally asks of you from me over the phone and
