    Stella told him the good news expecting a positive reply from David but what he said next her heart. "I'm not ready to be a father abort it." He said coldly without sparing her a glance. It was as if time stopped for her. She acted like she didn't hear him and asked him to repeat what he said. " I said I'm not ready to be a father abort it."

They've been very close for just one month that people think that they're siblings. David on the other hand turned America upside down looking for his wife.

    "So tell me when are you planning on going back to the states?" Lovia asked out of the blues and Stella just stared at her short of words. " I...I...I don't know when I'll be ready to face him and I'm not ready to see him." She said still thinking about it. "I know he has hurt you and he's a jerk for that but you need to go back and let him know how strong you are without him. You being here is like you're running away from your home and leaving it for that home breaker." She said squeezing her face in a disgusting way after saying the last part. Stella tried not to laugh since she was serious but looking at her face again she couldn't hold it in and let it out earning a harsh glare from Lovia. "What's funny I'm being serious here and you're laughing." She said still glaring at her. "I'm sorry okay but I couldn't hold it in seeing how your face was looking. Anyways she's nothing of such afterall David is planning on getting married to her and he never spoke of divorce to me so relax."

    Stella was awoken by the continuous knocking on her door. She woke up with an unhappy face murmuring to herself. "Just when I'm enjoying my beauty sleep, it has to be interrupted by someone." She opened the door to see one of the maids standing there and smiling her. She smiled back with a questioning look on her face. "Big Madam please boss needs you downstairs and he said I shouldn't return if you're not with me." She said making Stella scoff. "That bastard. He has the nerves after what he did." She whispered to her own hearing. She wanted to refuse but seeing the maid's face, she knew there was more to what David said. "Fine, let me quickly wash my face. I'll be right back." She said and went inside to wash her face after she came outside and followed the maid downstairs. " David King did you in anyway threaten the maid with her job because you knew that I wouldn't come downstairs?" She asked and David proudly answered her.

    Stella woke up and found herself in a big well designed room. She looked around to see if she'll find any trace of David but she couldn't.

She said and was startled when she heard someone clear the throat she turned to the direction she heard it from and saw David with a towel in his hands cleaning his hair and one wrapped around his waist. " When you're done checking me out tell me so that we'll talk." " And what made you think that I was checking you out. The last time I checked I was supposed to be here alone so what happened." She asked him. "Let's just say change of plans who knows what you'll do when I leave you alone. Now back to business. How can you call your husband a bastard when you're carrying his child. Should you be saying all these while pregnant. I guess I'll have to blame it on pregnancy hormones." He said moving closer to Stella making her sit in an uncomfortable position. "Can you talk w

Stella, on the other hand, was feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, her confidence still soaring from the praise she received.The car ride home had been quiet, David lost in thought as Stella chatted about their holiday. She was still basking in the glow of their time away, while David was already thinking about work and the deals he needed to close. He couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy whenever Stella laughed or smiled, her happiness a reminder of the attention she received from others.As they stepped out of the car, Charles was waiting, a big smile on his face. "Welcome back, you two! How was your holiday?"Stella launched into an enthusiastic recount

    David was the first to wake up staring at his wife's face. It was almost 11am and he had to wake Stella up since she hasn't eaten anything. He had to put a lot of effort in waking Stella up while Stella on the other hand was giving all sort of excuses for him to leave her alone so that she could sleep. She later gave in when David threatened her with the ghost. "It seems someone will frown the whole day or should I say one or two months. Well breakfast is ready let me eat mine and dump the rest in the garbage bin." He said mockingly making Stella frown more. " If I had known this is the kind of treatment I will receive here, I would've stayed at home for a peace of mind. I knew coming here was a bad idea but Stella refused to listen to her instinct now look at my life. It's such a pity for a woman in my condition." She said and rubbed her protruding stomach. She raised her head only to see David enjoying his food and acting like she's not present. With how he was munching the food it

    David's POV"I looked at her short of words. Is this my punishment for getting her pregnant? How can she be putting me through this. Where did I go wrong? She should've at least waited a little longer for the sky to be bright or something. I'm never getting her pregnant again." He was still thinking when he heard her scream startling him completely. " What is it babe?" " I've been talking to you for the past two minutes and you're not responding. You're really frustrating me these days." she complained while holding her head with a scowling face. "I'm frustrating you really, after all you're putting me through. Remind me not to get you pregnant again." He said making her sniffle her sobs. " Oh really, so you're complaining. You don't want my babies and I. You're indirectly telling me that you're tired of me and you have another woman in your life right?" "I'm not falling for that trick today. Babe you and I know that's not what I mean Please I..." He tried to explain but she cut him sh

    " Honey, where are we going? You've been driving for the past three hours and anytime I asked you, you'll tell me that is a surprise. I need to know." David looked at her face and he could tell how curious she is. He chuckled and continued driving. This morning David told her that they'll be going somewhere immediately she woke up. She has asked him of the place but he only told her that is a surprise. She frowned her face when she received no response from him. " Don't frown sweetheart, we'll reach our destination soon. I promise." With that said he concentrated on the road. "Humph... You've been saying this for the past three hours yet we haven't reached our destination." She chuckled and continued talking. " Wait! Are you going to sell me off or kill me. Honey please don't do any of these I know I've been stubborn these days but you can't do this to me. I promise to be a changed person and a good girl." She said all in one breath with a horrified face and with her hands together

    The next morning Stella woke up feeling something wet on her neck and she felt something hard poking her back. She finally opened her eyes and saw her husband busily kissing her. "Honey, what are you doing?" She blushed. "Can't you see what I'm doing and what I want." He said in between the kiss. "But is too early and I'm not in the mood." "Yesterday evening was too late and you made junior hungry only for you to pretend to feel sleepy. So my darling wife is never too early to satisfy junior. Talking about you not being in the mood I'll let that happen soon trust me." He replied and when Stella was about to protest he turned her over carefully and sealed her lips with his leaving her to moan. Within one minute there was shuffling of clothes and Stella had already given in. They lasted for two hours but David wanted more he let her be because of her pregnancy. " Sweetheart we need to visit the hospital today. I have a few questions to ask the doctor." He said with a serious face. " But

" You only call me 'Babe' when you need something. Am I right?" He questioned her. " He knows me too much. Anyway let m

    "Our babies." She repeated again not sure of what she heard. " Yes our babies. Sweetheart I know I've not been a good husband. I realized my mistake and I've decided not to hold onto the past again. I'm really sorry for being a coward and not being a responsible husband and father to our unborn babies." He replied truthfully but not going too deep into their conversation. Stella was just staring at his face not knowing what to say to him. She thought maybe he was just saying it to make her feel better but looking at his face he seemed serious. "So you want a second chance in other words right. I don't think I'm ready for any drama David is better we part ways and not waste each other's time. You can always come and check up on your babies but for me to be fooled again by you is not going to happen." She said with finality in her voice. " Are you going to give up on us just like that. Have you forgotten the love we shared?" "Love you say where was this love when you were being harsh on
