The traffic jam was a nightmare, stretching on for what felt like an eternity. As the sun dipped below the horizon, the line of cars finally began to inch forward.After Mitch had been crawling in traffic for nearly half an hour, he accelerated his car into a sprint on the open road, with Robbie's car following closely behind.Stella kept glancing back, and Mitch noticed. "What's up, Stella? What are you looking at?""Just checking out the traffic," Stella replied.Mitch scoffed. "Around the holidays? Forget it. Everyone's heading back to their hometowns for the holidays. Our little village's roads are always jam-packed."Their county, a hub for workers migrating to bigger cities for jobs, usually felt like a ghost town, populated mostly by the elderly and children. It was only during holiday times that the streets buzzed with life, filled with the energy of the younger crowd.Mitch continued, "White Corporation has poured a ton of cash into developing our county's tourism. If th

John said, "You know, the tallest dude I've ever seen is Lucas. The first time I met him, he seemed like a giant to me."The first time John laid eyes on Lucas was when Stella and Lucas tied the knot.Back then, John was just a little squirt, either in second or third grade, barely reaching Lucas's elbow. Standing at a solid six feet and two inches, Lucas was like a real-life giant to the young John, leaving a lasting impression on his young mind.Stella said, "Wait till you hit college, kid. Step out into the big, wide world, and meet all sorts of folks. You'll see there's always someone bigger, someone better."John challenged, "But how many guys out there can really measure up to Lucas?"Stella fell silent, pondering. It was a hard truth: not many men could match up to Lucas's caliber. The ones she knew were all from Lucas's circle - the rich hang with the rich, and the good-looking roll with their own kind.John asked, "Is Lucas going to join us for New Year's again?"Stella

Abigail's voice, gentle and soothing, echoed from the phone, "I've noticed you've been hitting the hay early lately. What's up tonight? Something on your mind?"Stella nodded slightly. "Yeah," she responded.Abigail's question was spot-on. "Did Lucas swing by to see you?"Stella's eyes widened instantly. "Abigail, I'm starting to think you're a mind reader."Abigail chuckled. "No mind reading, just know you too well. I know Lucas is the only one who can get under your skin like this."Stella sighed. "Do you think I'm being foolish?"Abigail's expression turned serious and firm. "Don't you dare talk about yourself like that. You're amazing, beautiful, and totally savvy. You got to believe in yourself."Stella responded, "I'm not putting myself down, just stating the obvious. Lucas hurt me badly, yet here I am, unable to stop thinking about him. I can't even sleep because I bumped into him."Abigail replied, "You know what they say, falling for someone might take a second, but ge

Abigail flashed a mischievous grin. "It's a secret!"Suddenly, a thought struck Stella, and the light in her eyes flickered out. "He's had a vasectomy.""Did you actually see him get it done?" Abigail asked.Stella shook her head. "In all these years, I've never taken birth control pills, and he's never used a condom. Yet, I've never gotten pregnant."Abigail said, "Sometimes, seeing isn't believing, especially when you haven't seen it for yourself. To find out if he really had the procedure, why don't you test it?""How?""I'll explain slowly, but remember every word," Abigail whispered conspiratorially.The two women, so wrapped up in their conversation, failed to spot Nathan. Nathan, freshly showered, lurked in the shadows, hanging on their every word.'Leave the father, keep the child? Is that what she really meant? Where in the hell did Abigail pick up this crazy stuff?' Nathan pondered, his mind racing. 'I gotta stop letting her get away with everything. Who knows what ki

Nathan's temper flared the moment someone dared to speak ill of his wife, causing his voice to drop to an ominous, threatening growl. "Lucas!"Lucas, caught off-guard, quickly clarified, "I meant no disrespect. I was just saying your wife is smart, that's all."Nathan said, "Their video call is over, and so is this conversation. We'll talk some other time."The line went dead with a harsh beep, and this left Lucas fuming. He knew Nathan had called just to rile him up, but he was powerless to retaliate.As Lucas stared into the sky, he felt his mind haunted by the words Nathan had thrown at him: "Leave the father, keep the child."The thought that Stella might want only the child, not him, burned in his heart like a fire. But then, the idea that Stella might want a child with him, to make him a father, seemed better than having no connection at all.With this thought, Lucas found the bitter words easier to swallow.Meanwhile, Stella, just off the video call and wide awake, found

Nathan demanded, "Tell me, who's more important to you, me or our son?"Abigail, drained and exhausted from his relentless questioning, barely managed a response. "Uh..."But Nathan was unyielding, needing a definitive answer. "Abigail, I need to hear it from you. Who matters more to you, me or our son?"Nathan's tactics, pushing her to her limits, were harsh. In a moment of defiance, Abigail gave him the answer he dreaded. "Our son."The moment she spoke, Nathan's reaction was like a tempest, fierce and unrelenting, his anger akin to a wild beast ready to devour everything in its path."Abigail, think carefully before you answer. Who really matters more to you, me or our son?" Nathan stepped back, feigning departure.Abigail, weak and unsteady, slumped against the wall, sliding down helplessly.Just as Abigail was about to hit the floor, Nathan pulled her back into his embrace with a swift extension of his arm. "Have you thought it through?"Abigail refused to fall for his tri

Abigail locked eyes with Nathan, seeing the genuine concern in his gaze. She knew full well the depth of his care for her. His worry was inevitable after hearing those words.Abigail made a daring move, reaching out with her hand, curling it around his neck, and pulling him into a fiery kiss. "Don't you know how much you mean to me?" she breathed.Nathan replied, "I do, but I need to hear it from you."Instead of words, Abigail chose to show him, through actions louder than any declaration, just how much he meant to her.As the night deepened and slipped silently into the late hours, Abigail, on the brink of sleep, was jolted awake by Nathan's deep and resonant voice. "Honey, you still haven't told me, who's more important in your heart, me or our son?"Stunned by his question, Abigail could not fathom why Nathan would ask something so juvenile, especially after her passionate display of affection."Honey..." Nathan began.Taking his hand, Abigail placed it over her heart. "Hubb

Stella remained silent."Don't be mad at me, Stella. I've been missing you like crazy; I couldn't help myself.""You promised me this afternoon you wouldn't bother my family.""Yeah, I promised not to bother your family. That's why I sneaked into your room in the dead of night."Stella looked at his handsome yet smug face. "How come our dog didn't bite you?""I took care of it with a chicken leg laced with a sleeping pill.""You...""Ever think about having a kid?""Whether I do or don't, it's none of your business.""If you want, I could make it happen with you."Stella chuckled. "Lucas, you once told me you had a vasectomy. How do you plan on having kids with me?""I lied about the vasectomy. I never got one. We can have a kid anytime you're ready.""You didn't get snipped?""Nope.""So, no vasectomy, and we never used protection when we were together. How come I never got pregnant?""Let's not dwell on the past, alright?""If you're not going to talk, I want you out.

Stella firmly held Lucas's hand which was touching her. "I haven't finished stating my conditions, why are you in such a hurry?"Lucas was extremely impatient. "Stella, can we talk about this after we finish making a baby?"Stella looked unhappy. "Lucas White!"Lucas immediately behaved himself upon hearing that. "Okay, speak. I'm listening."Stella said, "I've already made it clear just now. I only want the child, not you. Even if we meet outside in the future, we have to pretend not to know each other. If you dare to acknowledge me without my consent, I'll make sure you never see me again."Lucas remained silent.He thought, 'What did Abigail teach Stella? How could Stella propose such harsh conditions? Her conditions will prevent me from reconciling with her. But other than agreeing, I have no other choice.'Lucas nodded. "Stella, you should spend less time with Abigail."Stella raised an eyebrow. "You're no one to me. Who I spend time with has nothing to do with you."Luca

Stella kicked Lucas again. "Leave now. It's going to be dawn in an hour. If my parents wake up and see you, you can forget about being on my bed again."Lucas thought, 'I can't ruin my future for a moment of greed.'Lucas reluctantly got up and dressed."Hurry up and leave, don't dawdle," Stella said before thinking, 'I never knew he could be so dawdling.'Lucas turned his head to look at Stella as he walked away and found her gaze resembled that of a resentful woman. He said, "Stella..."Stella responded, "Get lost!"Lucas was speechless. 'When a woman turns cold-hearted, a man becomes so unimportant.'Lucas then reluctantly left the Dawson's house. After leaving Willowbrook, he felt so exhilarated that he even wanted to sing.He did not mind that he did not get to stay overnight with Stella. He believed being able to get into her bed and share intimate moments for such a long time was a big improvement in his pursuit of her.He did not have to spend the night in his van anym
