_______________________...Willow found herself in front of the apartment Knox shared with Mia.Her heart was racing as she held onto the pregnancy test results in her hand. She had debated with herself over and over again whether she should tell him, but now she had Natalie's ultimatum hanging over her head. She took a deep breath and walked over to the doorman."I want to see Knox Wright. Can you tell him Willow Mason is here?" The doorman gave her a leer, very well aware of her reputation through the paparazzi. But he still called Knox on the phone.The elevator ride up to the penthouse was nerve-wracking. Willow felt like she was going to throw up any moment. But she had to do this. For the baby.When the doors opened, she was greeted by the sight of Knox standing in the hallway, his expression a mix of surprise and hope. "Willow, you are here!"Her eyes searched his, looking for any sign of regret or anger. "Natalie told me to come," she said softly.Knox's heart sank. He knew

52. Truths

_______________________...Knox didn't waste time. He felt like he had waste too much already and should not be doing it anymore.He made his way to the hospital where Mia was admitted.Mia was surprised to see Knox at the hospital because he had only left a couple of hours ago."Knox, I thought you said you had a few things to take care of regarding work?" Mia knew she would be an idiot for hoping but she still let herself hope that he had missed her, was worried for her and had come back to take care of her because he wanted to and not because of some self-imposed obligation.Knox took a deep breath, trying to calm his nerves. "I need to talk to you, Mia."The tone in which he spoke, it scared her. It was bad news. She knew that. But would she able to take it? That was the question.Mia nodded, her eyes wide with apprehension. "What is it, Knox?"He took her hand, his voice filled with regret. "I can't do this anymore, Mia. I can't keep lying to you, to everyone."Mia's grip tigh

53. The Proposal

_______________________...Damien opened the front door and was stumped to see Mia and Knox."What are you guys doing here?" He was surprised and a bit confused. He knew that Knox had been trying to contact Willow but he didn't expect them to show up together, especially after the way Willow had left Knox's penthouse.Mia looked at Knox, who took a deep breath before speaking. "We need to talk to Willow," he said, his voice firm. "It's important."Damien's eyes narrowed his protective instincts on high alert. "What's going on?""We are here with a solution for everything," Mia spoke up. "I swear, Damien, this will fix everything and even Willow will be happy. Isn't that what you want?"Damien's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "Well, it's definitely what I want, but I doubt Willow will see it that way.""Who is it?" Trisha popped up behind Damien and on sighting Knox, got riled up. She hurried forward to beat him up but Damien caught her by her waist and pulled her back."Let me go, D

54. At The Cafe

____________________..."I don't want you to move out of the apartment yet." Mia said as she settled back into the hospital bed. The last two hours out of the hospital had been taxing for her. She realized she did need to be there till next week.Knox nodded. "Of course, I'll stay. We can't have George finding out till the very end."Mia's eyes searched his, "Thank you, Knox."He nodded solemnly, the gravity of the situation weighing heavily on him. "What about your mother? She can't find out either."Mia's expression darkened. "My mother is the least of our worries. She's always been under his thumb.""Then what are you worried about?" Knox asked her."Willow."Knox was confused. "What about her? Don't worry about how she reacted there. She is hurt because of the bullshit I did. I know to placate my woman. We will be back together in no time, even if it requires me to grovel at her feet. I love her and our unborn child too much to let anything bad happen now." He said solemnly.Mi

55. Flutter

_______________________..."Thank you for meeting me here." Willow looked down at her shoes, not really knowing what to say.She and Knox were in front of the OB/GYN's clinic. It was the day of their first sonogram.Knox took a deep breath, his hand finding hers. "Are you okay?" he asked, his voice gentle.Willow nodded, her eyes brimming with tears. "I'm just... scared.""Don't be," Knox said, reassuringly squeezing her hand. "We're in this together."They walked into the clinic, and Willow felt a strange mix of excitement and dread.The walls were painted in soft pastels, and the air was filled with the muffled sounds of babies crying and expectant mothers whispering.Knox checked them in, and they waited in the quiet room, holding hands.The nurse called them back, and Willow took a deep breath as she lay down on the exam table. Knox held her hand tightly, his thumb tracing circles on her skin as the doctor began the ultrasound.The screen flickered to life, and suddenly, there

56. Ohs And Awws

_______________________..."I love you." "Oh." Knox's face fell."Oh?" He asked. "Is that all?" "Knox, I am confused." Willow sighed. "I don't know what to say to you right now." Knox gulped, wanting to say so much but he stopped himself and simply nodded, understanding her. "Take all the time you need, Willow. I just wanted to be honest with you.""There you are!" The both of them turned to the source of the voice. Natalie stepped out of Willow's house followed by a starstruck Mathew who could not get over the fact that Natalie Wright had spent the last ten minutes talking to him as she waited for Willow to come back from the doctor's. "Nat, what are you doing here?" Willow asked. "Show me the pictures first!" Natalie put her hand forward. "The rest can wait." Knox rolled his eyes. It was so like his sister to bulldoze on what she wanted without a care for what the other person had to say. Willow took out the sonogram pictures from her bag and handed it over to her. "Oh

57. Protective Brother

_____________________..."Okay.""Okay what?" He was half asleep by now."I will marry you."Knox sat up straight, all sleep leaving his body."What?" He blinked, not quite believing what he had heard.Willow chuckled. "You heard me.""But... but why?" Knox stuttered, his heart racing.Willow raised a brow at him. "Aren't you the one who have been asking me to marry him for the past couple of days?""I know but... I just didn't think you'd say yes." Knox was genuinely surprised."Well, I have," Willow said, taking a deep breath. "But on one condition."Knox's heart dropped. "Condition?"Willow took a deep breath. "I want a real marriage, Knox. No more secrets, no more hiding. If we're going to do this, we do it together, as a family."Knox's eyes searched hers, feeling the weight of her words. "I promise you, Willow. I will tell you everything. No more secrets." She didn't catch the way his eyes averted for just a second.The room grew quiet again, the only sound being the distant

58. Close Call

____________________..."What do you want to talk about?" Damien asked as soon as the two men stepped out of the hospital room.Knox took a deep breath, his hand sliding into his pocket to grip the ring he had bought for Willow. "I know what it looked like, but I swear, I didn't mean to lead Mia on. She's just going through a lot, and I was trying to be there for her."Damien's expression remained hard. "You know how much Willow has been through because of you. You can't just play with her heart like this.""I'm not playing with her heart," Knox said, his voice firm. "I love her. And I know I've made mistakes, but I'm trying to fix things."Damien's expression didn't soften. "Well, you've got a hell of a mess to clean up," he said, his eyes still cold. "And if you hurt her again, I'll make sure you regret it."Knox wanted to point out that a seventeen-year-old could not do much to hurt a affluential man like him, but he kept quiet."Why are you here, by the way?" Knox asked.Damien

59. The Mother-In-Law

__________________________..."Melanie's here?" Willow was stumped. "When did she get back? Is she okay? Is the fracture fully healed yet?"Natalie rolled her eyes. "She's been back for a week, and yes, she's okay. I didn't want to overwhelm you with everything's that's been going on so I didn't tell you. But today, she lost all her patience and demanded to see you. So here I am.""Oh, Nat, I'm sorry," Willow said, feeling guilty. "I've been so caught up in my own drama.""Shut up. If anyone's to blame, it's my stupid brother." Natalie didn't bother to lower her voice, and Willow felt a flicker of annoyance. She knew Knox had his flaws, but she didn't like hearing him talked about like that."Look at you, getting mad on behalf of your fiancé." Natalie let out a laugh when she saw the look on Willow's face."Does Melanie know about the engagement or the... baby?" Willow chose to ignore the teasing and asked questions that needed answers."Neither of them." Natalie sighed. "Which is

60. A Long Day (18+)

_____________________..."What do you mean you don't have a plan yet?" Melanie seethed at her eldest son. "Surely, you must have thought of something before proposing to Willow."Knox shifted in his seat, his hand running through his hair nervously. "I did, I do," he protested. "We're just keeping things low-key for now. We'll figure it out.""You should have figured it out before you took the step, Knox!" Melanie was very disappointed. "Look, Willow has been through so much and she will continue to go through the same bullshit until you fix her image in front of the media. And you need to do it fast, we don't need those vultures attacking her ever again, not in the delicate condition she is in."Knox nodded solemnly. "You're right, Mom. I'll talk to Mia and see what we can do.""Why are you still talking to Mia?" Melanie did not like the woman who had come in between him and Willow. She didn't want to try to get to know her. "Mom, it's complicated." "Then uncomplicate it." She s
