Chapter 51

The unexpected question from Wilson seemed to inject tension back into the room. Rowan and Amanda exchanged glances, uncertain of how to respond. It was clear that Wilson's presence and his probing questions were making things increasingly uncomfortable and it pissed Amanda off. Amanda decided to address his question diplomatically. "First of all, I didn't say he proposed. He asked me to be his girlfriend. It's is not the same as him asking me to be his wife.' "Wilson scoffed. It was obvious he wanted to talk but Amanda didn't let him. " And yes, the pregnancy came after. But even if he had asked me to be his girlfriend because I was pregnant, I would have no problem with that and I don't think you should either." Rowan nodded in agreement, adding, "Amanda and I were already deeply in love before the pregnancy. It was just the next natural step and I don't think anyone should dictate to us how we run our relationship."Mr. Xi decided to intervene to defuse the awkward situation. "L

"Amanda, please don't take that to heart. I didn't even mean it that way." Rowan said. "I have heard you, boss, but please I want to get down." Amanda snapped. Rowan sighed. There was nothing more he could do at that point. It was as if he was holding her against her will. He gestured to the driver to stop. The car pulled over to the side of the road and Amanda quickly opened the door. "You don't have to do this, Amanda," Rowan said softly. She stepped out and slammed the door shut, walking away on the sidewalk, her arms crossed and her anger palpable.Rowan watched Amanda walk away, a sense of frustration washing over him. He knew he had made a mistake with his words, and he needed to make amends. "I think you should give her time," His driver said as he tried to get out of the car. Rowan sighed in frustration, "Follow her"The driver parked a few steps from where she was. Amanda had walked a short distance, her steps brisk. Rowan exited the car, hurrying over to her. She didn'

"I think he has a gun. He is trying to break in. I have locked the children in the store. It is only a matter of time before he breaks in. I don't think the police can make it. Amanda's heart raced as her mother's words echoed through the phone. Her mother's voice trembling with fear sent chills down her spine. She quickly answered, "I'm on my way, Mother." Rowan stared at Amanda, concern washed over him. "Amanda," he called out softly. "We need to go now," Amanda said without hesitation. "What is the problem? Rowan asked, worried and confused. "I will tell you on the way," Amanda responded and hopped into the car immediately. Rowan followed. "What is our destination?" The driver asked. "My house. My mother is in danger. "What!" Rowan exclaimed. The driver did not hesitate, he sped off immediately. "What exactly is going on, Amanda," Rowan asked. Amanda turned to him, her eyes filled with worry. "My mother says there's someone at our house who won't leave. She said he has a

"Sorry?" Amanda asked.Rowan had his gaze on her, he didn't get her attention. She was still thinking about Wills's reaction and what could have made him angry. "Never mind," Rowan said. "The evening had been tensed. You should have some rest." Her focus shifted as Rowan attempted to steer the conversation in a different direction."Thank you, I will," Amanda responded. Her gaze met Rowan's "what?" She asked, trying to understand the look on his face. "Nothing!' Rowan exclaimed. Amanda didn't say anything more. She walked away from Rowan into the house. " Good night" Rowan called out as he retired to his car. When she entered, the children were already out of their hiding place. They ran to her. Amanda hugged them tightly, relieved to see them unharmed. They were all talking at once, recounting the terrifying events of the evening. Amanda tried to comfort them, reassuring them that everything was okay."Mom, what happened? Who was that man?" Mason asked.Amanda, her voice trembli

"Mrs Roberts nodded that she should go ahead. "You are the best mother anyone could ask for. You have been supportive right from the beginning. I didn't realize how difficult it was for you until I became a single mother and trust me, I would not have done a thing without you." Amanda wiped the tears running down her mother's cheeks. "My kids are in your hands and I trust they would do just fine with you." Mrs. Roberts smiled. "Don't try to patronize me. You can put that energy into packing." "Yes, mother," Amanda responded. They resumed tracking immediately. After a while, they had already packed what they believed to be necessary. "You should get some rest, Mother," Amanda said. She was coming from the children's room. They were all asleep by the time Amanda went in to check up on them. "You should too" Mrs. Roberts responded. "Yes, I will. I just need to send this message to Rowan and I will have some sleep." Amanda answered, walking to the living room. She texted Rowan abou

"I'm glad to see you two getting along," he commented.They were all shocked by his response. "The boss must love Miss Amanda very much." One of the staff whispered to another one. Amanda turned to Rowan. "Anna and the rest of the staff have always been great. They do their best to make sure this place feels like a home away from home.""They can do a better job by helping you settle in right now instead of standing right there enjoying the pleasantries," Rowan said. His smile suddenly disappeared. The staff quickly dispersed, including Anna. Amanda gave Rowan a mean look. "What?" Rowan asked as if he knew not what had happened. "What was that for?" Amanda exclaimed. "You shouldn't give them too much closure. They will take it for granted." Rowan said. Amanda was still trying to process his statement when Anna came back. "I would like to escort you to your room, Miss Amanda," Anna said. Amanda sighed in frustration. "Sure." She replied, following Anna. She didn't say anything to

When she opened the door, Wilson was standing at the entrance of the room. Her heart sank immediately. "Wilson?" Amanda stammered, her voice quivering. "That can't be." "Well it is," Wilson responded, chuckling. "How the hell did you get in here?" You.." Amanda was lost for words. She couldn't believe he had come to her room unannounced and without Rowan seeing him""This is my brother's house, remember," Wilson replied. "And I believe the best thing for you right now is to let me in, else.." "Else.. What?" Amanda snapped. He pushed past her, entering the room without another word. Amanda's eyes widened in surprise, and she quickly turned to him, her back against the opened door. "What are you doing Wilson? I am going to call your brother" Amanda yelled softly, more like a whisper. "Good idea. But if I were you, I would close that door first." Wilson said. He was already sitting on the couch, making himself comfortable. Just as she was about to say something to Wilson, she he

The sound of the knock pierced the room and Amanda's eyes flew open in shock. The silence that took over for a brief moment was scary. She could hear Wilson's heart beating fast. "Amanda!" Rowan called out softly. Amanda's panic intensified. With tears still wet on her cheeks, she quickly pushed Wilson away. Rowan knocked again. His voice followed the knock. "Amanda? Are you okay in there?"This time, Amanda wanted to respond but Wilson stopped her by placing his left hand on her mouth. He shook his head to signify that she should not answer. The situation was dire, and Amanda needed to act swiftly. She looked around and motioned for Wilson to hide in the bathroom. "Stay here" she whispered. He reluctantly complied, slipping into the small space just as Rowan tried the doorknob. She was yet to regain her composure when Rowan came into the room. "Hey, Amanda, what's going on?" Rowan's tone held concern as he spoke.Her voice shook as she responded, "Why, I'm fine""Are you sure ab

"Wilson?" Both Amanda and Rowan exclaimed at the same time. Anna nodded to show her affirmation. "Stay right here," Rowan said as he walked to the living room with Anna. Amanda was sure ready to disobey the order. She followed Rowan immediately. "Hey, brother!" Wilson said when they got to the living room. "What are you doing here?" Rowan remarked, ignoring Wilson's friendly smile. "To do the right thing. Take what is mine." Wilson said, grinning. Amanda's heart skipped several times and she hoped she would not panic again. "What is yours? In my house?" Rowan questioned. "Do you even…" "Calm down, brother." Wilson interrupted him. "I am not here to fight. I am here to make peace." Rowan and Amanda shared a glance. "What is it you want, Wilson?" He asked, very calm. "I want to retain my position as your brother. You took that away from me a long time ago and I am here to take it back, whatever it takes." Wilson explained. He was convincing enough that he saw the confusion on

Back at Rowan's house. Amanda had retired to her room out of anger. Rowan decided to check in on her. Rowan knocked gently on Amanda's bedroom door, concerned about how she was feeling. "Amanda," he called out, "can I come in?"Amanda, still trying to calm her racing thoughts, hesitated for a moment before replying, "Yeah, sure, come in."Rowan slowly opened the door and entered her room, finding her sitting on the edge of the bed, her face buried in her hands. He walked over and sat down beside her, placing his hand on her back."Amanda, I'm sorry about what happened downstairs," Rowan began, his voice filled with sympathy. "I didn't expect Wilson to show up like that." Amanda nodded. "But you see, he is my brother and I can't be mad at him forever, not when he comes at me like that asking for forgiveness." Rowan continued. He found it difficult to interpret Amanda's expression but he continued. "I know you are still pissed at him for hitting on you at the dinner with my parents a
