CHAPTER THIRTY ONEDespite the agreement that Liam and Lucy had about Lucy not calling Liam, she kept calling him anyway. She would call him day and night, and even faked crying if Liam refused her demand. Liam couldn't focus on anything else in his life because he would always be doing this or that for Lucy to satisfy her. His job and his relationship with Asher started to suffer as he would always have to spend time with Lucy.In order to cover up his visits to Lucy's house, Liam started to make different excuses. One of his lies was that he now found a new church that he attends. He would lie about going to church every night Lucy demanded he come to her place. Every time Asher asked to go with Liam to the church, he would say it was a men-only church and that she couldn't come. He would always find something to cover up whenever Asher asked for the name of the church. "What do you want this time?" Liam hissed into the phone, ducking into the bathroom to answer Lucy's call so that

"Mr. Liam, we're going to need to perform a C-section on your wife," the doctor said, his voice calm. Liam was already drenched in sweat, his anxiety evident in the way he fidgeted in his chair. Lucy had been in labor for two days, and Liam had lied to Asher, telling her he had to go on a business trip in order to stay with Lucy in the hospital. To keep everything discreet, they had gone to a different hospital than the family hospital, hoping to avoid any prying eyes or questions."If that is the best option, please go on". Liam said, his voice shaking. The doctor directed him to a nurse to fill the Consent form before carrying out the surgery. With shaky hand, Liam signed the form and Lucy was wheeled to the theater.Liam's pulse was racing, he couldn't rest. He kept asking about Lucy's condition from any nurse that came his way.The surgery seemed to take an eternity, and Liam was a nervous wreck by the time the doctor finally emerged from the operating room. He quickly approached

"Where is Mr. Liam?" the pediatric cardiologist asked, looking at the two women. "He will be the one to receive the result of your daughter's test." Lucy and her mother are in the cardiologist office for the test result but the doctor was refusing to give them any information. He felt it would be best to give the result to a man. Lucy and her mother were becoming increasingly frustrated with the doctor's refusal to share the information."Was I not the one who authorized the test to be done? Was her father here when you said she needed the test?Why do you now need her father when it's time to tell us the results?" Lucy said, her voice rising in anger. "What is wrong with my baby? Should I take her to another hospital or what?" she asked, growing more and more frustrated."I can tell you the results, but I think it would be best if Mr. Liam is present here," the doctor said, his tone soft. "I will tell you the result if you want me to tell you and promise you will keep calm" He said, L

Liam's pov"Where are you coming from?" I was shocked to hear my father's stern voice as I entered my living room. He and my mother were sitting there, their faces hard and not smiling at all. Asher sat across from them, her eyes were red, her legs crossed, stamping the left leg on the ground repeatedly. I felt a chill run through me and couldn't move from where I was standing."Where have you been?" My dad asked again. I tried to open my mouth and say something but words were not coming. Lucy and our baby were discharged three days ago from the hospital and I had to spend time with them because I felt I needed to step up and be there for them.I had been ignoring my parents' calls and making excuses whenever Asher tried to reach me. I had told her I was going on a business trip when I left home.I was caught off guard when I met parents in my house, and I didn't know how to explain where I had been. I was sure that my father would be able to tell that I had been lying about my busin

Ever since Asher returned home, she has been crying nonstop. It was hard to believe that Liam, who had promised to stay away from Lucy, had been lying all along. He had a two-year-old daughter with her. It was all too much for her to take in. The thought of calling her parents crossed her mind, but she decided against it. She needed to confront her husband first and get the truth from him. He still wasn't home yet, and the evening was stretching on. She couldn't sit still, she was pacing the living room with tears. Her heart was beating faster.She was about to head to her room and try to relax when she heard the front door open. She turned and saw her husband walking towards her. He reached out to hug her, but she recoiled. The hurt she was feeling made her lash out, and she slapped him hard across the face. He looked stunned, rubbing his cheek in confusion. "What's wrong?" he asked. "What happened?" "I want nothing but the truth, are you cheating on me? '' she asked, her voice sha
