The Stranger's Baby Chapter 68
Earlier that morning.Rhoda was curled up on the sofa. She was typing furiously on her laptop when she suddenly stopped and reached for her phone by her side.She scrolled through her call log and dialed the 6th number on the list.It rang for a while before the person on the other end finally picked up. "Hello, Darling." The fatherly voice came through."Did you talk to Damien already? What did he say?""Yes, I did. He seemed to have made up his mind.""Come on, Ricky. How could you let go? This is insane. You really don't know that woman. She's evil, she's a gold digger. She doesn't like Damien. She is out there to ruin your son and his reputation. As his father, your priority should be to look after him even when he is too dumb to see it.""I understand you are angry dear, but there is almost nothing I can do. You of all people know how stubborn Damien is. I wish I had been involved before the divorce was finalized. The judgment has been made and there is almost nothing I can do ab

Tessie's eyes, the owner of the coffee, went wide. Not just because of the act done but to whom the act was done against. The Boss's ex-wife whom they all respected so much.If there was anything, She was glad she requested a warm coffee today."How dare you?!" Tracie saw Rhoda screech. She brought up her hand to hit Melissa on the cheek but Melissa held her hand still. The duo glared at each other for a couple of seconds before Melissa eventually shrugged Rhoda's hand away. By this time, the duo had even attracted more attention. Tessie could see a few people peep through the window of the office building. "You are forever going to regret messing with me, you slut!" Rhoda threw Melissa the deadliest glare ever."It's sad how you disrespect people and then you expect everyone to endure your bullshit and fall at your feet all because you are some shitty public figure?"Rhoda scoffed, trying not to get too irritated as coffee dripped down her face.Roe pointed at herself. "Me? Shitty p

Melissa said nothing. She watched as Damien took out his phone from his pocket and began to punch some buttons.She frowned, even though she had no idea what he was doing. She could see the seriousness in his face. "What are you doing?""I am trying to select a picture of you to post so that the whole world would know that I am yours and that I am off limits." Damien responded, his eyes glued to his phone."To post?""Yeah, I have a verified Instagram account. Just never posted anything on it. But seeing you on my page would shut the world up."Melissa frowned, asking the question that first came to her mind. "Where did you get my picture?"A shy smile crept to Damien's lips. "I have them.""How?" Melissa was curious since she hardly takes pictures of herself."Pictures from our business trip. I took them when you weren't looking.""Can I see?" Damien hesitated for a while but he eventually handed her the phone.Melissa scrolled through and saw about 17 pictures. Most were taken when

"What the hell are you talking about?!" Rhoda found herself getting angrier."What child? Did you all even investigate the right person? Today has been a terrible one already, don't act dumb and set your facts right.""B...but it's true, Ma'am." Doreen stammered. "I've gone through the report the PI gave. I know it's shocking but that's what we found.""Just shut the hell up! I consented to you all digging into the past of that gold digger so I can get my revenge against her but how dare you all drag my husband into this? Why would Damien have a child and I wouldn't know about it? Dam and I may be divorced but that doesn't give you all the right to defame him." Rhoda said at the top of her voice, wondering why everyone was hell bent on bringing out the worst in her today. She already felt threatened enough that Dam blindly picked Melissa over her, hearing of a child being involved was starting to traumatize her."Apologies ma'am but we aren't making things up. I'll forward the report

"And why the hell would I be used as a meme when I am the innocent one? I mean, that bitch drowned me with coffee.""Exactly!!! She drowned you with coffee and you looked ridiculous with your angry face.""So it's my fault for challenging the woman who ruined my home?""No, there is nothing wrong about that. It just happened at the wrong place and at the wrong time.""You are a public figure who has never failed to portray a perfect life before the public so it is normal for your move to be watched and criticized. I understand how you feel and I'm deeply sorry that all of this is happening. I just want you to know that you are way stronger than you think and this phase is going to pass. Please just come home and let me take care of you."Rhoda came to a halt, sniffling, not believing that tears were already welling up in her eyes. "Damien has a son.""A son? What the hell are you talking about?""Yeah, I just found out. A son with that bitch. That's why he was quick to discard me.""D

"Please talk to me. I don't want you keeping me in the dark." Melissa pouted."You're sounding as though I'm about to do something dangerous.""Well, maybe not but I would love to know what's on your mind. I understand that you can't stand anyone saying nasty stuff about me but I still believe there is no need to put any pictures or information out there except it is our will because the truth remains that, no matter what you say, people will believe what they want to."“You have a point but I'm still going to do all I can to protect you."Melissa smiled, she tiptoed and kissed his cheek. "I'm good! I know you wanna do all you can to make me feel safe in this relationship but I've always been a believer of the fact that the truth will always prevail regardless of anything and everything.""As long as you and I, as well as the kids, are cool, I believe nothing else matters."A small smile crept to Damien's lips. "This relationship? I had no idea we were in one already."Melissa blushed

Damien nodded."How? When?""The day after we visited the hospital. Are you mad at me?" He stared at her intently."There's no reason to be. I mean the whole world knows already. It just feels so...""Feels like what?""I don't know. He seemed really polite to me. Well, he had always been. I just don't want people to look at me as though I've got horns on my head."Damien chuckled. "That's not going to happen. They can only stare at you with so much adoration. He still doesn't know you are the mother of my son. But he would know from the interview."Melissa nodded. Her eyes met with the table. "Thank you for the gifts. You spoil me too much."Damien smiled. "This is nothing compared to the plans I've got for you."Mel shook her head, trying to hide her blush at the same time. "This wasn't what we agreed. I have your card so I'm going to get myself whatever it is that I crave."Dam nodded."I mean it." She groaned."Your wish is my command, babe." He kissed her forehead, even though he

"She can go to hell for all I care. It's you and Ryan I care about the most. Are you both okay?" Damien said at a go."Y....yes...we are good.""Get a safe place to park. I'll be with you all shortly." Damien said, ending the call since she already shared her location with him.Melissa did as he said. She drove slowly and parked on the opposite side of the road. She unbuckled her seatbelt, got down from the car, holding her phone, and then went to the back seat to check on her son.Mel took a glance at the opposite side where Rhoda had crashed into a tree. The road wasn't busy. A few cars passed, but Mel saw two strangers rush over to Rhoda."My love." Melissa could see tear stains on Ryan's cheek so she leaned closer and kissed his forehead."I was so scared, mommy. You wouldn't stop and you were saying those bad words.""I'm sorry, my love. Please forgive me." Melissa unbuckled Ryan from the car seat, carried him out of the car, and hugged him tightly.The little boy instantly wrapp
